Chapter 465: Chapter 232: Tier Six Gene Enhancement (6k)_4
But she also didn’t anticipate what they encountered, as they have yet to return. Bai Yi could only temporarily put his thoughts aside since he couldn’t catch them.
However, searching for that Shark Witch’s superpower is merely to open up a new path for territory expansion.
In terms of pure usage, Ju’s current Tier Six Space superpower is already sufficient for use within the territory.
Whether it’s the Space superpower of the witches or other races, or buildings like the Portal Giant Tree, initially they all use Ju’s superpower as the core.
This upgrade doesn’t even require any adaptation steps; direct enhancement can be used.
In contrast, the steps needed to enhance metallurgy to a practical state are far more numerous.
After all, Tier Six metallurgy is essentially just a part of Snake Mother Landra’s superpower, and not the focal part.
After obtaining the corresponding superpower, it still requires gradual separation, followed by enhancement.
But all this is worth it.
As a truly superpower-level ability, even just a part of a Tier Six superpower is much stronger than the metallurgy obtained from gene enhancement extracted from ordinary plants.
The two complement each other by utilizing gene-level editing ability to fuse them, directly raising the upper limit of this ability to the level of genuine Tier Six superpower, becoming true superpower-level metallurgy.
Theoretically, with today’s Mechanical Brain Worms, they could even authentically create Gundams dozens of meters high by relying solely on their own.
And even replace the Fire core, temporarily cosplaying Transformers!
The only issue is that after superpower ascension, the "occupation" of the body is much larger.
As a result, once truly installed, the few races under command might deplete their internal superpower slots.
For Mechanical Brain Worms, it’s easier as they only possess a few superpower genes; their combat power relies entirely on the diversity of metallurgy, using territory-related knowledge to acquire combat power.
There is ample space internally, but relatively speaking, the metallurgy enhancement for Mechanical Brain Worms is not a quantum leap in combat power.
Rather, it slightly raises the future upper limit. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
But for other races, the issue with superpower slots becomes particularly evident.
Especially for the Insect Swarm, which already stacks several universal superpowers within the race, enhancing space superpower is already the limit. If metallurgy is also elevated to superpower level...
Bai Yi’s current technological means cannot make it compatible, at least for now.
In terms of the enhancement that ultimately fell upon the Insect Swarm, Bai Yi didn’t choose metallurgy but opted for the more universal Space Series and the Spiritual Series superpowers, which have little presence.
Both are enhancements to the Insect Swarm’s connectivity ability.
The former specifically enhances the connection range within the spatial logistics system, simultaneously encompassing defense, attack, and maneuverability, presenting an all-encompassing ability.
Its cost-effectiveness is exceptionally high, and its functionality is difficult to replace.
The latter enhances the connection distance of the Insect Swarm’s mental network, which is Bai Yi’s most vital core ability that can’t be forsaken.
Thus, additional enhancement for metallurgy, which is already sufficiently practical with no clear enhancement in combat power, wasn’t done on the Insect Swarm.
Bai Yi merely utilized his new capability to replace some internal genes, significantly expanding the range for metallic absorption.
Similarly, other groups also only underwent minor adjustments based on individual usage habits.
For example, races like Tree-man and cats that only use metallurgy for mining capabilities saw an enhancement in metal absorption range, while witches needing it for collaborative research and creation only saw refinement in the precision of control.
"Sigh...
There’s no choice; otherwise, how could one consider making choices when conditions are optimal? Of course, having it all is best.
But unless a creature continually enlarges its physique, it’s utterly impossible to accommodate more superpowers. The current physique is already optimal; increasing or decreasing size is unadvisable...
Unless...
Superpowers aren’t placed inside the body!"
Bai Yi suddenly thought of a possibility, and the excitement drove a magical flow, causing his eyes to light up.

West Wind Pointed Leaf Grass: A special herb distributed only in element-rich chaotic areas, where only 4th Rank and above Mages can attempt to harvest, yet due to its lack of unique advantages in magic power characteristics, hardly anyone is interested. Coupled with its equally mediocre appearance, even witches show no interest until a witch randomly decided to take a bite...
