In the Sensing Cabin, Ding Meng's injuries had actually recovered a long time ago, but he was reluctant to come out. It was not because of the amplifiers, but because he could not suppress his restless heart. What did the seventh origin look like?
"You can't cultivate the seventh origin just yet." Little Rascal decisively stifled his curiosity.
"Why not?" Ding Meng refused to accept it. "Do I have to make a girl happy again before I can see it?"
Little Rascal didn't quibble with him this time. Instead, it said in a serious tone, "You've strengthened the sixth origin, so you've only just completed the first stage of the Diamond Star Technique. You must strengthen the first stage as a whole to complete it. If you touch the seventh origin too early, it'll only do you more harm than good."
"Strengthen the whole?" Ding Meng was very curious.
Little Rascal said proudly, "Of course. This is also the strength of the Diamond Star Technique. Only after strengthening the whole body will there be a qualitative leap, not a mere accumulation of quantity. Now, follow my instructions …"
The six origin points within Ding Meng's heart formed a lifelike golden diamond mirror image, which was also the core source of his origin ability energy. If the mirror image were to be released, then it would create a powerful defensive force field. However, all of the points, lines, and surfaces had yet to converge together and converge inwards.
Little Rascal explained, "In the past, you spread the mirror image's energy to every part of your body to strengthen your body's resistance. However, now that the six origin points have taken shape, try to circulate your Origin Energy and push all the energy towards the mirror image. Concentrate it at the very center of the mirror image."
Following Little Rascal's instructions, Ding Meng soon found out how powerful it was. The moment he pushed the energy in the opposite direction even a little bit, the overwhelming pressure and suffocation appeared again. His chest felt heavy, his vision blurred, his muscles contracted, and his breathing became rapid …
However, at the same time, Ding Meng also discovered that his heartbeat was increasing, and his blood flow was increasing. Countless golden blood molecules rushed towards his heart, and most importantly, his body's absorption of Origin Energy was faster than ever before.
Back when he was on the Dead Silent Star, it was mainly the top of his head and chest that absorbed the specks of origin energy. By relying on the contraction of his Telekinesis vision, he could absorb some flake-like origin energy that was similar to bright spots.
After reaching planet TT12, following the construction of the fourth and fifth points, the palms and soles of the feet could also absorb Origin Energy. The Origin Energy could be seen flowing into the body in the form of streams.
This time, his navel and forehead could also absorb energy. The surrounding Origin Energy flowed into his body like a column of water. From this, it could be seen how strong the absorption ability of the six points in the first stage was.
Little Rascal continued, "It's normal for your body to produce these phenomena. You'll understand once I explain it to you. Don't you humans have something called adrenaline?
When people were excited, afraid, or nervous, they would secrete this chemical. It could make people breathe faster, their pupils dilate, their heartbeat and blood flow accelerate, providing more energy for their body to move faster.
Mirror image compression is also based on this principle. It is the adrenaline hormone of origin ability users. It catalyzes various reactions in your body and is developing your human potential … "
With her explanation, Ding Meng did not dare to be negligent. He tried his best to concentrate and mobilize his Origin Energy.
However, as more and more origin energy accumulated in his body, the surging energy also increased. Ding Meng's pressure also suddenly increased. One must know that he was soaking in the "Crystal Berry Concentrate". Even with the help of this thing, it was already so painful. He didn't dare to imagine how inhumane the torture would be if he didn't have it. No wonder Little Rascal didn't allow him to cultivate the seventh point before he completely completed the first stage. That was indeed something he couldn't bear.
However, he was also clear that this kind of cultivation method was actually very dangerous. This was because the amount of Origin Energy absorbed from the outside was increasing, but the progress of it entering the mirror image was abnormally slow. The digestion rate could not offset the absorption rate, so if the excessive Origin Energy produced exceeded the capacity of the body, it would correspond to the concept of a "container" that Little Rascal had mentioned before. If it was light, it would deform and explode. If it was heavy, it would cause a qi deviation.
"If you make ACT5570 undergo such a high-intensity transformation right off the bat, there is a high chance that he will fail to advance." At this critical moment, Xiao Ai appeared.
"Don't worry about it blindly," Little Rascal casually replied.
"This kid is different from others. The more you force him and urge him, the more he will be motivated. If you do things step by step, his progress will be slow."
Xiao Ai said, "What kind of fallacy is that?
I think he won't be able to hold on for much longer. The amount of Origin Energy accumulated in his body has reached 27889 points. Once it breaks through 30000 points, his transformation will fail. "
"What?
You think what I said is a fallacy? "
Little Rascal was not convinced. He decisively opened a telepathic communication and turned his head to shout, "Ding Meng, put in more effort. That" Crystal Berry Concentrate "is almost used up. If you don't gather the Origin Energy at the core of the mirror image, you will suffer a qi deviation."
"What?"
Ding Meng was shocked when he heard this. Suffering a qi deviation was his number one natural enemy. He would rather start all over again than suffer a qi deviation. However, the pressure he was under right now was too great. His entire body was in excruciating pain, and the pace of his advancement was very slow.
"Motherf * cker, I'll fight you to the death!" Ding Meng ignored the heavy pressure and simply pushed his Origin Energy to the limit.
At this moment, the various large mirror surfaces of the diamond mirror image in his heart flashed with a bright light. Countless golden particles were attracted to the surface, and they actually began to surge. This surge was similar to the whirlpool state that occurred when one mastered the "Origin of Heat Art". It slowly flowed and converged into the interior of the mirror image...
"This..." Xiao Ai was dumbfounded. "The amount of Origin Energy has dropped to 22308 points."
"What do you think?
Do you believe me now? "Little Rascal was immensely proud of himself." This brat's miraculous abilities aren't something you can evaluate with mere numbers. "
In reality, Ding Meng's cultivation speed had far surpassed their imaginations. When all of the Origin Energy had converged to the core, a pure white dot had appeared within the mirror image. Of course, this dot wasn't the true origin. Rather, it was a new dot formed from the energy. As more and more Origin Energy flowed in, the new dot gradually expanded until it became a small ball, which just so happened to be contained within the mirror image.
After his telekinesis vision was magnified once more, he could faintly see all sorts of profound and complex diagrams within the small ball. These mysterious diagrams rotated as the ball rotated, creating an indescribable sense of beauty.
At this moment, Ding Meng finally felt that the Origin Energy in his body had become more abundant. In fact, it was several times more abundant than when all six of the dots were operating at the same time.
Little Rascal explained, "This is the effect of the overall strengthening. It will make your Origin Energy even more abundant. The Origin Energy stored within the diamond mirror image is purer than the Origin Energy absorbed by normal Origin Energy users, and the concentrated Origin Energy in the core is even more powerful after the mirror image's modification. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it's equivalent to your own Inverse Source Crystal."
Ding Meng said, "Just like the backup energy stored on a starship?"
Little Rascal said, "You can understand it that way, but it's not as simple as storing energy for you. Strictly speaking, it's a smelting system."
"Smelting system?" Ding Meng's interest was finally piqued. "What kind of things can it smelt?"
Little Rascal said word by word, "It can smelt anything."
"What?" Ding Meng was stunned. "It can smelt anything?"
Little Rascal said, "That's right. It can smelt anything, including Origin Energy, Crystal Sources, Crystals, metals, and other resources. Apart from that, it can also smelt items, materials, food, supplies, amplification items, exotic flowers, and all sorts of other things. Even air, water, and light can be smelted."
Holy shit, that's so awesome! Ding Meng was deeply stunned.
"Then what about humans?
Humans can be smelted as well? "Ding Meng asked suspiciously.
"Humans can be smelted as well," Little Rascal replied very directly. "Do you still remember that Lan Bing?
When you were fighting her, if you had this smelting system, you wouldn't have needed to channel Origin Energy from the outside world at the final moment. You could have just extracted the backup Origin Energy and taken her life on the spot. Then you could have smelted her body and absorbed her Origin Energy for your own use. "
Ding Meng was speechless. He really couldn't imagine such a thing.
Seeing his comical expression, Little Rascal continued to explain.
"Smelting isn't as simple as you think. When you smelt something, you also need to have the same level of strength as yourself. If you're strong enough, you can naturally smelt something of the same level. If you're not strong enough and you try to forcefully smelt something, it won't have any effect at all. On the contrary, it might even cause side effects...
"Let me give you another example. The diamond you dug up on the Dead Silent Star isn't actually an ordinary diamond, but a strategic resource. Its main component is mutated crystalline charcoal. Its melting point is 8000 degrees, and the higher quality ones have melting points in the tens of thousands. If you want to smelt it, you first need to cultivate your thermodynamic Origin Energy to the point where you can release it externally. Only then can you gasify it at such a high temperature. Otherwise, you won't be able to smelt it at all. At your current stage, you can only store energy and perform some simple experiments. Only when your strength increases greatly will you be able to smelt even larger objects..."
Ding Meng pondered for a moment before saying, "What you're saying is that as long as I'm strong enough, I can smelt even a battleship or a planet?"
Little Rascal said, "Correct. That's the principle."
Ding Meng sighed. "No wonder you always say that the Diamond Stellar Fusion Technique is very complicated and difficult to cultivate. It turns out that there are so many ways to do it."
Little Rascal said unhappily, "Tch, that's nothing.
The real difficult part is yet to come. I'm too lazy to tell you because I'm afraid it'll scare you. "
Ding Meng said, "Right, doesn't such a powerful smelting system have a name?"
"Of course it does," Little Rascal said proudly. "It's called the Diamond Stellar Fusion Technique."
