Supreme Electromagnetic Tyrant-Chapter 385 - 276: Seeing Ren Mian Again

97 points of Spiritual Origin Ability were invested, raising the Flow Barrier to (Second Level 1/577).

Ji Xinghuo paused and noticed that the Second-Level Flow Barrier didn’t look much different from the First Level, but its defense power had clearly increased. Then, he raised it to (Third Level 1/1777), and the formed energy armor was still a thin layer, only about one millimeter thick.

Only when the Flow Barrier was raised to (Fourth Level 1/7717) did it finally undergo a change.

The Ability had evolved!

From Superior Ability, it had evolved into a Transcendent Ability, yet it still remained at Fourth Level.

When Ji Xinghuo once again stimulated the Flow Barrier, he immediately sensed a curious reaction between his spiritual energy and this transparent, intangible armor. It was like a tangible electromagnetic field that, when attacked, instantly released a fine current in retaliation.

The seemingly fleeting current had not to be underestimated in its lethality.

When he concentrated on maintaining this layer of armor, everything that approached was subjected to an electric shock, and the defense power became even stronger!

"Continue upgrading."

Ji Xinghuo glanced at the interface and invested more Spiritual Origin Ability to raise the Flow Barrier another level, to [Flow Barrier (Fifth Level 1/35317)].

The Fifth-Level Flow Barrier still looked as thin as paper in appearance.

But its defense power was extremely strong. Ji Xinghuo conducted a simple test. Holding the Thunderbolt Battle Blade in his hand, he needed to exert about half of his strength to cut through the Flow Barrier.

Over ninety percent of Super Mutants didn’t possess half of Ji Xinghuo’s strength.

And beneath the Flow Barrier, there was also the Holy Scale Armor!

With these two layers of defense combined, Ji Xinghuo didn’t believe there were many Super Mutants who could threaten his life. Standing without moving and taking hits, he might remain unharmed while the enemy could be electrocuted to death by the Flow Barrier’s counterattack.

However, it was not without weaknesses.

The Fifth-Level Flow Barrier consumed too much spiritual energy, especially when under attack.

Ji Xinghuo estimated that if he had to rely only on the Flow Barrier against the attacks of Legendary beings, he might not last a few minutes.

"Indeed, past the Super Mutant stage, Star Power is the root of strength!"

"The further up, the more important Star Power becomes."

Muttering to himself, Ji Xinghuo had used over ten thousand points of Spiritual Origin Ability to skip five levels in the Flow Barrier, and now, to upgrade to the Sixth Level, it would require over thirty-five thousand points.

After some consideration, he decided not to upgrade for the time being.

His current defensive power was strong enough, and he still had over seventy thousand points of Spiritual Origin Ability saved for future use.

He closed the interface, and Ji Xinghuo’s attention shifted to his surroundings. His electromagnetic induction spread out, probing into the neighboring Winged People’s hotel.

"How come there’s no movement yet?" fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

In his perception, the two Winged People he had encountered the day before, apart from visiting the exotic treasure auction house in the morning, had not gone out at all.

The man and woman, in their respective rooms, clearly held a superior-subordinate relationship, and their statuses were distinct.

Ji Xinghuo kept vigilant surveillance throughout the day.

Just when he wondered if he had mistaken something, the next day, several Winged People arrived in Eternal Day City, entered the hotel, and were led to meet the female Winged Person. After a few words, they settled in. Afterward, more Winged People arrived, including a Legendary Feather King!

This Feather King was a male Winged Person, whom Ji Xinghuo caught a glimpse of from afar before the latter entered the hotel.

"Spiritual Power Stringer."

The man’s wings were white, and he stood around one meter seventy centimeters tall.

Ji Xinghuo, observing from two to three hundred meters away, was actually noticed by the other, whose grayish-white eyes turned toward him, but seeing that he was a Highlander, the other didn’t care much.

"Such keen perception," Ji Xinghuo walked on the street as if nothing happened, but was inwardly amazed.

The legendary Winged Person entered the hotel and also met with that female Winged Person.

The two had a private talk for a moment.

Ji Xinghuo grew even more curious; these Winged People had notable strengths and gathering in Eternal Day City clearly indicated they were about to undertake some operation.

That evening, another legendary Winged Person arrived.

This time Ji Xinghuo did not go out to watch. His electromagnetic induction sensed the new arrival was extremely tall, over two meters, a size only the Kuang Diao Clan among the Winged People would possess.

Most branches of the Winged People chose paths of evolution for agility, swiftness, intellect, or creativity, only the Kuang Diao Clan would choose the path of evolution for strength.

Three legendary Winged People were rare in Eternal Day City.

Ji Xinghuo waited patiently.

Another two days passed, and the group of Winged People finally began to move. Led by the three legends and followed by five Fourth-Rank Winged People, the group left Eternal Day City.

"Heading south?"

Ji Xinghuo did not immediately follow them out of the city, instead looking in the direction the Winged People had left.

That was the south.

Located at the center of Bloody Plateau, it would take at least ten thousand kilometers from Eternal Day City to exit the plateau in any direction. Heading south from there, veering slightly southwest, would be the location of Red Emperor Blood Mountain, the highest peak on the plateau.

After a few seconds of hesitation, Ji Xinghuo decided to follow.

When he left the city gates, the Winged People had already flown over ten kilometers and could only be seen as a line of small dots on the horizon. Fortunately, today’s weather was clear, which afforded high visibility.

Thump, thump, thump...

Ji Xinghuo started running rapidly.

Although he too could fly, controlling the magnetic field for flying was not as fast, nowhere near the speed of the Winged People’s flight, and it was faster for him to run on the ground.

The Rotating Magnetic Field activated, accelerating his running speed.

Ji Xinghuo’s legs moved like a blur, each step making contact with the ground creating a stride of seven or eight meters. The instant his foot touched the ground, the magnetic field reversed, propelling him into the air, only to land again quickly and continue the fast-paced alternating steps, leaving behind only a barely visible trace.

This running method was something he had figured out on his own. It used up a bit more Star Power but conserved physical energy.
