It was like he could even regenerate his limbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he had no idea of trying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His strength, defense, reaction speed and other qualities also received a boost. But he could tell that it wasn't the most important change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian waved his hand and the next moment, they slowly turned into a dark brown branch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian felt a different kind of strength coming from this branch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seriously, I feel weird.\" He muttered while manipulated his branch-turned-hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood up and tried to transform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zi!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a flood of prana, Varian felt his height change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His torso turned into a trunk while his arms turned into branches. His hair turned to leaves and the next moment, a treant—a tree man was standing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? What?!\" The first change Varian felt was his injuries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with the rare healing potions, his serious injuries would take at least ten minutes to heal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite that, it was a speed visible to naked eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, that speed at least doubled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian felt a warm current circulating throughout his body, quickly healing his wounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would be healed in four minutes at most!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"High healing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He declared and looked at his branch-like arms. At high speed, he slashed his arms, the branches against each other and—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A metallic sound reverberated in the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"High defense!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He punched into thin air. His branch arm extended into the distance and hit the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The expensive wall of the rest room shook a little, but that's all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Weak Strength.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian was disappointed. This attack was weaker than a normal level 4 Enhanced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then again, it was fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tried the dreaded stat of Plantae Morphers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One. Two. One. Two.\" Varian felt like he was on a parade. His tree legs were thick and bulky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite his best efforts, his level 4 Morpher speed was closer to a level 3 body awakener than he liked to admit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damnit!\" Varian cursed. \"I heard some plants have high movement speed. Guess I'm not so lucky.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Argh, whatever. High vitality, high defense, weak strength and turtle speed.\" He concluded and transformed back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thankfully, my camouflage were specially designed. Or they'd break in fights and during transformation.\" Sighing, Varian tiredly leaned back against the chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He checked out the weird power in his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like warm water massaging him, soothing him and calming him.Yet it was also like cold water that would focus and cut even the sharpest of metals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mental Power.\" Varian muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, he became a Telepath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mind Awakener (Level 1-3) —> Telepath (Level 4-6)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian closed his eyes and tried to sense the world outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mental power spread out and an extremely detailed view of the room presented itself inside his mind's eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sleek White walls. Bots controlled by Boo to not reveal any of his actions. Vials of healing medicine in trash. A few chairs and a resting bed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow!\" Varian opened his eyes and exclaimed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the best 'sense'.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other two senses—lighting sense and space sense also showed the world, but through their sense of lighting and space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only mind sense…he could see the world in the familiar vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mind Sense is better than I expected. Unfortunately, it won't help much in battles. Space Sense is better.\" Varian shook his head and recalled the details about Telepaths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Telepathy. Hypnosis. Illusions. Mind Reading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the stronger an awakener, the greater the resistance towards Hypnosis. Same with Illusions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mind Reading usually meant prying on thoughts and memories. But without consent, it was hard to do and required a huge differential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mind Reading…\" Varian's brows knit together and he closed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly dived into his memories. They were like a huge library with new entries every single moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There seemed to be a foggy area he couldn't access. But with each passing second, the fog reduced a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In immediate vicinity to the fog were memories of Sia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That meant these memories were unlocked after the fog wore off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Those fuckers! Who sealed my memories?!\" Varian's eyes glowed red and he smashed the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, a white and black light started to emit but it quickly died down as he calmed himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I met Sia already. It's okay. I will kill who needs to be killed. Now, I just need to maintain my cool.\" Varian patted his shoulder and calmed himself down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truth be told, he was incredibly anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He observed that the fog was concentrated heavily in the center. It should be the most important of memories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian closed his eyes once again and used his mental power to touch the fog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zi!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like ice melting under fire, his mental power melted instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian's eyes expression turned pale as he gritted his teeth. Even though nothing happened to his body, just for that moment, he felt like he was burnt alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No. I'll have to see what I can do.\" Taking a deep breath, Varian dived in once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dark space greeted him and in it laid the grand library of memory. Each memory was a ball of light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment his mental power touched the ball, the memory would play.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in a corner was the dangerous fog. No. It was not fog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was mental power!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just that Varian's mental power was too thin and was invisible whilst it was very concentrated and almost looked like semi-liquid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It's definitely compressed mental power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From level 7 to level 9, Mind Awakeners compressed their mental power to grow stronger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it level 8 or level 9?\" Varian's eyes stared at the deadly fog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless, he tried to break through the fog and reached the memories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Argh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Grah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fuck! Damnit!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All attempts ended in failure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, Varian looked at the edges of the fog. It was the thinnest part.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mental power, like a spear pierced towards thinnest part of the fog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Argh\" Varian opened his eyes and felt cold sweat rolling down his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His breathing was labored and he felt like his brain was crushed in a grinder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Did I fail again?\" Varian said slowly, his expression, contorted with pain was full of disappointment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He checked his memories and found no change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm pissed off. I'll have to fight.\" He slowly stood up and walked towards the exit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right before he stepped outside, he paused and checked his memories once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, he carefully observed the thin edge of the fog he previously attacked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not gone…but it definitely thinned!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three, no, two more attempts and it'd be gone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My mind is too painful to try again…but if I do this everyday.\" Varian's lips curled up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll regain my memories, I'll find everything!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1217,"2026-06-06T07:58:11.288Z",1,"novelbin.me","c53917f9130179ccaebb00abc0e22eda9df454f055d9e765985490cea0009ce0","divine-path-system-chapter-257","divine-path-system-chapter-255",1773,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdivine-path-system-cover.jpg"]
