Chapter 3422: Condensation
Chapter 3422: Condensation
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Two hours later, as the scattered Origin Power energy points all gathered, the sea of consciousness emitted a faint hum.
"Buzz..."
The Origin Power core condensed in a corner of the sea of consciousness.
[Hint: The player completed Origin Power condensation.]
Fang Heng immediately observed the Origin Power core.
Huh?
Very strange.
At present, the largest power within his body was Qi.
To ensure the coexistence of various academic energies, all forms of spiritual energy were unified and converted to remain in the form of Qi at the center of the sea of consciousness. Outside of the Qi energy, the three powers—Hell, Death, and Godly—could not be converted and slowly circulated around Qi, forming a strange balance.
However, the newly born Origin Power was different from any of the three powers of Hell, Death, or Godly. It could neither fuse with them nor convert into Qi.
When the origin source core finished condensing, it even levitated at the edge of a corner in the sea of consciousness.
Now, as the core fully condensed, it surprisingly began to dissolve automatically again into scattered points.
Hmm?
What was that?
Fang Heng noticed that the scattered Origin Power rapidly gathered toward the center of the sea of consciousness, then slowly enveloped the circulating powers of Hell, Death, Godly, and the Qi energy at the periphery, forming a thin layer.
Then everything returned to calm again.
What did it mean?
The Origin Power settled on the outer layer of the energy ball, somewhat like an outer protective membrane?
Fang Heng felt it was strange and tried to condense the remaining Origin Power in the sea of consciousness again.
This time, the newly condensed scattered Origin Power light spots no longer accumulated into the core but continued to attach to the outer layer of the central power ball, continuously strengthening and thickening the protective membrane.
Until Fang Heng refined all the Origin Power in the sea of consciousness, the Origin Power showed no further change—only the protective layer outside each power core became slightly thicker.
Fang Heng sensed no other changes from the sea of consciousness and slowly opened his eyes, trying to clench his fist.
At this moment, he was outside the Black Fog of the game, so he could not see any specific skill hints of the Origin Power, but he roughly felt that mastering the Origin Power enhanced spiritual strength while barely strengthening physical attributes.
So, how exactly was the Origin Power used?
Fang Heng tried reaching out his hand again.
"Chi!"
A flame ignited in his hand.
His pupils contracted sharply.
There was a change!
As the flame rose, he immediately sensed that while the mental strength surged and condensed from the sea of consciousness, the mental strength’s outer layer naturally overlapped with a layer of Origin Power.
Fang Heng lowered his head to observe the flame, flipped his right hand, and threw the flame toward the right side wall of the room.
"Bang!"
The flame exploded against the alloy metal wall of the ship’s room, leaving a deep burn mark.
Hmm?
Strange, the elemental science skill’s destructive power itself had not improved.
Fang Heng was puzzled and ignited another flame in his hand.
Looking carefully, besides the elemental science condensed flame power, there was indeed an added layer of Origin Power.
Why was there no change?
Could it be...
Suddenly, Fang Heng realized something, raised his brow, flipped his left hand, and tightly held a dark-colored small dagger. A dark aura of death swirled around the dagger.
"Chi!"
The dagger slashed through the flame in his right palm!
Before fully reaching it, the death power surrounding the dagger quickly dissolved at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Origin Power!
So that was it!
He understood!
Origin Power enveloped the flame, and if the flame directly attacked an object, the effect barely increased, but if this power clashed with another power, the dissolving effect added by the outer layer of Origin Power could instantly dissolve the enemy’s spell effects.
For example, the Holy Court’s turtle shells.
Simply put, the Origin Power he currently possessed worked passively, adding penetration to skills and giving him a huge advantage when clashing skills with enemies!
At least at this stage, he could not directly use the Origin Power, but this enhancement was already enough to excite him.
No rush.
The Origin Power had just condensed, probably only at the elementary or mid-tier level. When he completely devoured the Void Power inside the Void Abomination, the Origin Power might evolve into a further form.
Fang Heng nodded quietly, stood up, and opened the room door.
During the two-plus hours he spent researching skills, the ship had already received reinforcements. It was towed by two ships to dock at a floating continental starport on the periphery of the void’s end.
Xia Xi waited at the door and reported, "Sir Beetle King, the first batch of materials exchanged by Pena and the others has been transferred here."
"So fast?" Fang Heng’s eyelids twitched slightly, then nodded, "Good, let’s go take a look."
...
Starport.
Fang Heng, Zane, and another person jumped down together from the ship.
This small floating continent was currently controlled by the God of Eternal Silence and was mainly used for the collection and refining of void ores. It also served as a large transit hub.
Pena approached Fang Heng and said, "Sir Beetle King, the items you requested were not cheap. Our Lord gathered them promptly and delivered them to the warehouse. The first batch of materials has arrived. Let me take you to see."
"Alright."
They followed Pena and walked straight into a large warehouse not far away.
The warehouse was large, with automatic transport drones busy moving metal crates inside and stacking them neatly on the ground.
"What do you think?"
Pena looked at Fang Heng.
She was curious how Fang Heng planned to handle these ores.
Fang Heng did not answer but slowly walked to a metal crate near the front and raised his hand.
"Pa!"
The crate was instantly opened, revealing a box full of elemental crystals.
Most of the elemental crystals were low-level.
The quality of the absorbable energy crystals was not enough, so quantity had to make up for it, right?
Fang Heng secretly shook his head.
Well, it didn’t matter.
It only meant spending more time refining the crystals. Transport would be a bit more troublesome, but not a big problem.
"Alright."
Pena sighed with relief and smiled, "As long as you are satisfied. This warehouse is now under your management. This continent is usually used for temporary ore storage and has a harsh environment. You can rest on the ship. The ship will be docked for maintenance for the next couple of days and won’t set sail."
"No need to bother. It’s fine here."
Fang Heng said and nodded at Xia Xi beside him.
Xia Xi understood, took a small step forward, and layers of creep rapidly spread around from beneath her feet.
