Chapter 655: Chapter 658: New Superpower_1

Yang Gang finished speaking and left.

He returned to the deep mountains once more, and began practicing his archery.

Two hours later, Yang Gang laid on his back in the snow, a serious expression on his face. "It won’t work, it’s just not going to work. The ’Land of Fallen’ is opening in a few days, and even though my Ice Control Skills have improved greatly, my spiritual power limits me. Even if I perfected my Ice Control Skills, I still wouldn’t be able to compete with powerhouses like Li Qing. No, not even Zhao Long for that matter. I only managed to kill Zhao Long last time because he was already seriously injured and completely lost his combat ability. In terms of true strength, I likely wouldn’t stand a chance. The likelihood of me surviving in the ’Land of Fallen’ with my current strength is probably less than one in a thousand."

Yang Gang paused for a moment, then muttered to himself, "My biggest advantage is the multitude of special abilities that I possess, that’s my trump card. But the reality is, while I do have many superpowers, most of them, save for my Ice Series Superpowers, are auxiliary abilities meant for daily life. For things like Transformation and Telekinesis, these auxiliary abilities are practically useless in intense battles. And these abilities take up nearly half of my consciousness space."

In light of his slow progress in increasing his spiritual power, Yang Gang’s greatest desire was to clear these ’useless’ abilities from his consciousness space, in order to make room for more useful superpowers.

However, even Yang Gang himself found this idea to be wishful thinking. His consciousness space wasn’t like a portable hard drive where files could be freely copied in and out.

"Hmm, I should study my body more. After all, it’s the legendary Perfect Form, filled with unknown mysteries. It’s like an untapped treasure that might actually yield some pleasant surprises."

With that, Yang Gang entered into his internal vision mode.

Inside his sea of consciousness, several individual cell crystal cores were floating. These were spawned from when Yang Gang absorbed and fused with the blood of other superpower users.

"Hmm..how do I remove these useless cell crystal cores? If I enter the Land of Fallen in my current state, my chances of survival won’t be great! Even if I can find valuable superpowers, if I can’t free up memory in my consciousness space, I won’t be able to devour them..hmm?"

Seemingly having hit upon something, Yang Gang pondered: "Devouring? These individual cell cores were all born from the devouring and fusing of other people’s blood cells. What would happen if I were to devour these individual cell cores again?"

Feeling as though he had found a direction, he stood up instantly.

But out of caution, Yang Gang didn’t rush to conclusions. He paced back and forth in the snow, his expression changing unpredictably, before finally setting into determination.

"Let’s give it a shot! If I don’t try, I don’t stand much of a chance of surviving in the Land of Fallen anyway!"

Making up his mind, Yang Gang manipulated one of his own cell crystal cores to approach an independent one. This one represented the Transformation ability.

The Transformation ability originated from Gu Ge. After acquiring this power, although he had used it several times, its overall utility wasn’t significant. Hence, Yang Gang chose it for his experiment.

The moment the two came into contact, the Transformation cell core boiled up instantly and disappeared from the consciousness space at a visible rate.

Yang Gang was overjoyed, but was soon struck by soul-splitting pain that caused him to roll in agony on the ground, clutching his head.

This devouring experience was different from devouring others’ cells. Though these were independent cells, they still contained his own life essence. Devouring independent cells was pretty much akin to self-harm.

Luckily, the memory within the Transformation cell core was not large.

Five minutes later, the pain, which had made him wish he were dead, finally ceased.

Yang Gang was soaked in sweat, lying on the snow, gasping for air.

After catching his breath again, Yang Gang looked inward once more. The cell core representing Transformation had vanished from his consciousness sea, freeing up quite a bit of space.

Despite going through such a painful ordeal, Yang Gang was thrilled at the results of the experiment.

Being able to eliminate useless superpowers meant he no longer needed to worry about inadvertently absorbing trash abilities.

"It would be great if I could find a valuable superpower to absorb before heading to the Land of Fallen." Yang Gang secretly hoped.

Gong Shuiwei’s ’Black Hole Space’, Zhang Miao’s ’Rule Space’, Su Xiaoxi’s ’Curse Power’; these offensive superpowers were phenomenally powerful, taking up more consciousness space than he could have imagined. His current consciousness space simply couldn’t accommodate them.

Yang Gang didn’t dare to hope for, or even consider, these powers.

Actually, he had other superpowers in mind that he fancied.

For instance, ’Instantaneous Movement’. Although it’s also an auxiliary ability, its utility in battle would be immense. Combined with his Ice Series Superpowers, he could instantly kill an opponent.

Or the superpower of [Invisibility]. It too, can kill without trace.

However, Yang Gang doubted if there really was such a superpower as [Invisibility]. According to all the information he had gathered so far, he had never heard of this ability.

After thinking for a moment, Yang Gang stood up.

"Let’s head back to school first."

After walking for a while, Yang Gang suddenly paused, a few drops of blood spotted on the snow ahead. Although most of the blood was covered by the freshly fallen snow, a couple of drops were still exposed.

This was the same bloodstain he saw in the mountains a few days ago, accompanied by footprints in the snow. Then, the footprints spread deep into the mountains, but they suddenly disappeared in a patch of snow ahead.

Incredibly strange.

Subsequently, Yang Gang encountered a group of unidentified armed men and engaged in a brief fight with them.

"Hmm..." Standing here, Yang Gang was lost in thought for a moment, before a sudden realization: "Could it be..."

He hurriedly ran over and brushed away the snow.

As the blood was covered by heavy snow and not too much time had passed, it still looked relatively fresh.

Yang Gang looked at the blood, pondered for a moment, then decisively conjured an ice blade, slicing open his own finger.

Then he smeared the blood in the snow onto his bleeding wound.

Sss~

The blood began to boil as it made contact.

This was the blood of a Superpower User. Only the blood of a Superpower User would react to Yang Gang’s blood. But what kind of superpower was contained in this blood?

The blood cooled down quickly after a brief boiling period.

"Consciousness Sea Space is insufficient..."

Yang Gang frowned for a moment then gritted his teeth: "Damn, I’ll go all out!"

Then, Yang Gang began to devour the independent cell cores in his Consciousness Sea Space.

The first was the Divination ability he received from Gu Xiaorou. This superpower was useless to Yang Gang. He had used it only once since he acquired it. Moreover, his Divination accuracy was extremely low compared to Gu Xiaorou’s 100% accuracy. It was like the difference between heaven and earth.

After devouring the Divination ability and freeing up some Consciousness Sea Space, it was still insufficient to accommodate the superpower contained in the blood.

Yang Gang gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and swallowed the Telekinesis ability he’d received from Chen Wenhua.

After devouring the Telekinesis ability, Yang Gang’s entire body was convulsing. The excruciating pain nearly distorted his face, and he almost fainted.

Yang Gang lay in the snow for a good two hours before he recovered.

He got up, smeared the blood from the snow onto his wound again.

Sss Sss~~

When the two blood samples made contact, they boiled again, but the burning sensation was nothing compared to the pain Yang Gang had just experienced.

This time, the fusion progressed smoothly.

A few minutes later, a newly fused independent cell core appeared in the Consciousness Sea Space.
