Chapter 409: Chapter 293: Logic Rules of Dark Energy Formula

The second location was similar to the first, situated in a forest in North Bear Country.

This time, even the gang listing displayed only the words "Taiga Forest," without any other information.

It seemed that the person must be hiding in this forest.

However, this left Zhang Xiaoman rather speechless.

Joking aside, the Taiga Forest is a massive forest stretching 1650 kilometers vertically and covering an area of 27.2 million hectares.

Now, with just the name of this forest written on the system interface, how could he possibly find out exactly which nook and cranny the person lived in?

At present, he was at the third location, in Button Market, America, a city that always seemed to get the worst in movies.

He had thought that with a definite address, it would be easy to find the person, but as of now, Zhang Xiaoman had come up empty again; the person was apparently not here.

Shaking his head, he exited the old apartment building.

When he went in earlier, he had checked but found no pattern resembling a Star Alliance marker. It seemed it was either non-existent here or hidden somewhere.

Zhang Xiaoman was somewhat helpless because of the time difference; he had specifically chosen nighttime to come here, but it still resulted in no gain.

"Forget it, let’s leave finding people to the folks from the Light Blue Clan; I have a bit of a clue about that formula, so I’ll step up in the next few days to see if it can be completed. For now, I better go back to sleep..."

He pondered inwardly while yawning uncontrollably, already heavy with sleepiness. He immediately found a secluded corner and activated Unlimited Teleportation to return.

The next day, morning.

Upon waking up from sleep, Zhang Xiaoman quickly washed up, and the first thing he did was head to Rebirth Island to continue developing his new skill.

He was also gaining some insights on the use of the Dark Energy Technique.

He discovered that the Dark Energy Formula wasn’t entirely without patterns.

Take the three fire attribute skills he controlled, for example, ranging from the simplest Flames to the Fireball Technique to the Fire Python. These abilities all had similarities in the formula.

Zhang Xiaoman discovered that each skill had sequences of 216, 216, and 215.

Moreover, they seemed inseparable from the basic framework of the Flames; they just required a more complex arrangement, but the original framework was unchanged.

Take the Fire Python for example, its arrangement pattern was accidentally discovered by Lin Sisi while painting.

While its shape resembled a small snake, Zhang Xiaoman realized that overall, it still revolved around the setup of 216, 216, 215, just with many other elements enriched on top of it.

Based on this, Zhang Xiaoman was starting to experiment with other skills, with Spirit Detection Technique being his prime target.

He planned to see if he could manually upgrade the Spirit Detection Technique by making improvements.

However, the project was difficult, as modifying skills was akin to finding a needle in a haystack.

Although finding the right method offered a glimmer of hope, compared to the vast ocean it was set against, this light was still too faint.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiaoman’s Dark Energy talent was at a MAX level, which gave him a natural affinity that others lacked.

Often, once a Dark Energy formula was arranged, he could clearly sense whether the formula was logical or even activatable.

Of course, even so, developing a new skill was never easy.

The proportion of logical arrangement may only account for less than one percent, with luck playing a much larger role.

Thinking of luck, Zhang Xiaoman couldn’t help but recall the three skills developed by Lin Sisi.

He had to admit that aside from her scholarly attributes, this girl also possessed a lucky constitution; her luck was indeed off the charts.

After spending the morning on development and experiments, Zhang Xiaoman stopped somewhat dejectedly.

From his expression, it was clear that his morning plan for new skill modification had failed.

"It looks like my guess yesterday was wrong. I need to adjust the position of the 216 sequence further back—this will also require changing the continuity that follows..."

"Moreover, the amount of Dark Energy Particles in the lower sequence always seems insufficient... particularly in the middle part; it appears a higher sequence is required. Could it be that I need to use a middle sequence?"

Zhang Xiaoman thought about this and shook his head somewhat helplessly.

Although his Dark Energy cap had now increased to over 200, and the recovery rate of Dark Energy had shortened to 25 minutes with the aid of hearthstones and equipment, relying on just this amount to activate middle sequence Dark Energy Particles was somewhat wishful thinking.

Due to some bragging in the past, Zhang Xiaoman had naturally activated all 216 Dark Energy sequences, elevating his rank to the "Extraordinary Level."

But this did not mean that he could use high-level Dark Energy Particles directly.

The reason was simple: his Dark Energy cap was still not sufficient.

Based on his perception, converting a middle sequence of Dark Energy required a minimum consumption of 671 points.

Even just one particle had already reached such a level; using middle-level Dark Energy Particles to combine skills would obviously require an even higher Dark Energy cap.

However, the good news was that developing new skills also constituted a process of consuming one’s own Dark Energy.

As long as he controlled the pace properly, he could also enhance his Dark Energy capacity, potentially achieving two goals with one move—it could also count as a form of cultivation.

Standing up from a stone where he had been sitting cross-legged, Zhang Xiaoman glanced at the snail not far away—it was its sixth day in the Original Realm.

From his observations, it seemed that the creature did not pose any danger.

Furthermore, probably due to the contract signed, it also behaved very affectionately towards him, so taking it outside should pose no problems.

However, since the other party was an Extraordinary Creature, Zhang Xiaoman was still not complacent.

Therefore, he decided to send the snail first to another island in Seven-star Lake to let it continue living there for a while, and also to put some small rabbits and such inside to test its habits.

Looking at the time in Qionghua City, it was nearly noon. Zhang Xiaoman immediately ended his cultivation and decided to head back since he had an appointment with Master Liu to eat goose at his house today.

However, he did not immediately use teleportation to leave; instead, upon opening the system panel, he decided to use up all the accumulated lottery chances from the past few days before leaving.
