My bathroom connects to another world
Chapter 498 - 498 498 Holy Light Source

498: Chapter 498: Holy Light Source 498: Chapter 498: Holy Light Source No matter how the experts in the outside world studied and were shocked, Zhao Guang then secluded himself in his home, not going out.

Most of his time was spent in the Otherworld, because there were new varieties of plants to research.

In these few days, hearing the shocked voices outside, and even many foreign experts specially traveling to his country, proclaiming that this was a treasure for all humanity, even writing many papers.

Zhao Guang’s interest in researching plants suddenly swelled up in his heart.

It just so happened that it was time for farming, and this time he was determined to produce several varieties that would astonish everyone.

As for this ‘treasure for all humanity’, Zhao Guang just laughed, “Let your own seed companies disclose their research outcomes first.” He remembered how his own country’s rice was continuously criticized internationally.

Zhao Guang didn’t stop these people; after all, they couldn’t get normal seeds, so it didn’t matter to his research.

If they actually came up with some results, Zhao Guang would be even happier.

It meant that he could understand his plants even better, and it would provide him with new directions for research and sparks of wisdom.

No matter how you looked at it, it was beneficial to him, so why not do it?

That day, just after finishing his research, Zhao Guang began his routine training.

But this time was different, as his Combat Energy instantly permeated his entire Bimong Heart.

Feeling this sensation, Zhao Guang was immediately overjoyed, for he knew he was about to succeed.

Without a second thought, Zhao Guang swallowed the painkiller he had prepared, at twice the normal dosage.

There was no choice, as the final step was bound to be even more painful, and if he couldn’t endure it, he would be completely ruined.

Indeed, as soon as Zhao Guang was ready, he went through the last step.

The Bimong Heart turned into a speck of light, instantly contracting and merging into Zhao Guang’s body, and a devastating pain burst forth almost at the same time.

Zhao Guang endured the agony, ensuring that the Combat Energy inside his body remained smooth and did not go haywire.

In such perseverance, a special stream of Combat Energy flowed into the position of the heart, then condensed into a round ball of light.

It was then that the intense pain finally vanished.

He glanced at the clock nearby; only a few seconds had passed since the process began, but Zhao Guang felt as if it had been hours.

There was no helping it; under such pain, a person’s senses always distort their perception of time.

But to be in pain enough to cause such a bias in perception meant that the agony reached the limit of what he could bear.

“Next time I must find a way to manage the pain; the old methods won’t work anymore, and the effects of the medication will probably become weaker.

Even if I end up using prohibited substances, they might not be able to suppress it.”

Zhao Guang was somewhat worried, as he couldn’t just lower the standards for his Lifebound Battle Skill when reaching the next level.

Never mind, no point in thinking about that now, it’s better to check the effects of my new Battle Skill first.

Zhao Guang took off his penguin suit and threw it aside, having had enough of it these past few days.

Even with the improved Cleaning Technique to cleanse himself, wearing the same outfit all the time was becoming tiresome for him, both physically and mentally.

He never wanted to see that penguin outfit again, Zhao Guang thought to himself.

Afterward, Zhao Guang started to activate the Combat Energy within his body, because this time his Lifebound Battle Skill was another Passive Skill, so he could only rely on other means for the test.

Such as an attack test, consumption test, resistance to impact test, and even self-injury test.

However, with his breakthrough to advanced strength, his very own skin’s defensive power was now equivalent to a suit of metal armor.

To inflict injury upon himself was truly no easy task.

In any case, such behavior appeared as if it was self-harm.

Xi Fei, who watched from the side, had a face full of worry.

But after a series of experiments, Zhao Guang finally understood the general effects of his Holy Light Source.

The Holy Light Source was the name Zhao Guang had given to his newly condensed lifebound battle skill, signifying the wellspring of his Holy Light Battle Energy.

With each heartbeat, every pulse would massively restore his own combat energy.

It was just a pity that this recovery was due to the absorption of external forces, so this rate of recovery likely wouldn’t show on Earth.

But that did not matter, since he would hardly need it there.

In the Otherworld, this recovery speed was truly terrifying.

Through experimentation and calculation, Zhao Guang discovered that as long as he wasn’t constantly receiving serious injuries, his combat energy recovery rate would surpass the rate of consumption.

If he was continuously severely injured, that would only indicate that the enemy was beyond what he could handle, far exceeding him.

Now, even if Zhao Guang used some regular powerful moves, such consumption couldn’t keep up with his recovery.

This meant that he was essentially a perpetual motion machine on the battlefield, at least in terms of combat energy.

“Never expected that, while both are advanced, combat energy recovery could actually surpass magic power.”

Zhao Guang sighed with this realization while feeling extremely satisfied with his current state.

At the very least, the idea of being overwhelmed by numbers to his death was absolutely impossible now.

Moreover, with the formation of the Holy Light Source, his combat energy purity was higher and its cohesion stronger.

Perhaps because he had used Behemoth Material, his combat energy’s destructive power had seen a significant enhancement.

Originally, his combat energy excelled in healing and recovery; although powerful, its destructiveness lagged a bit.

Now it was different.

If he were to clash with Elena now, she probably couldn’t withstand several attacks from him.

Although this was not a normal attack skill, it unexpectedly greatly improved his attack capability.

Indeed, as long as one had a solid foundation, the higher the level, the more powerful one’s innate strength.

Now with his own power, apart from lacking experience, he was among the elite within the advanced warriors.

No, it should be said that among advanced warriors, there were probably not many who could match him.

If his strength continued to improve, then at the same level, he might not be invincible but close to it.

“Can’t get complacent, can’t get complacent; who knows if those nobles might have some freak among them.”

Zhao Guang hurriedly reminded himself.

Those nobles had access to all sorts of resources.

Even without painkillers, who knows if they possessed other items.

Besides, they had access to painkillers now.

Although he had strict control, he had still sold some, after all.

Moreover, if humans didn’t have strong individuals, how could they contend with beastmen?

The beastmen didn’t even need painkillers.

He eminded himself for quite some time, but his mindset was still somewhat uncontrollable.

Looking up at Xi Fei who was beside him, this was just perfect.

He believed that celebrating his own achievements might also help relax his spirit.

With this thought, Zhao Guang walked over and, amidst Xi Fei’s screams, picked her up.
