Chapter 340: The Transformation of Otherworldly Ability
Chen Fan's thoughts stirred, and his soul directly and completely transformed into a mass of golden Thunder.
And the original Vow Poison had long since vanished without a trace.
With his soul transformed into Thunder Form, the Vow Poison had lost its anchor and naturally dissipated entirely.
"I actually stumbled into curing the Vow Poison by accident!!" Chen Fan's breathing became somewhat rapid.
One must know that the Vow Poison was like a giant sword hanging over his head, ready to strike at any moment.
This kind of fear could make a person unable to eat or sleep in peace.
For the past month, Chen Fan had barely slept, which was why he had fallen into such a deep slumber just now.
Yet, he had completely cured this poison because of this single Thunder Nether Flower!
"This is truly wonderful!" Chen Fan clenched his fist tightly, finally setting his heart at ease.
"Congratulations!" Luo Jingyun patted him on the shoulder and then said:
"Xiao Fan, after you fell into a deep sleep, your body frantically devoured the Thunder-type energy drifting in the air; your body appeared extremely 'hungry'."
"But because there wasn't enough Thunder-type energy around, I took the liberty of opening one of your Space Rings, and your body didn't settle down until it had devoured a full ten thousand Thunder Crystals. I truly don't know how your body was able to withstand such a massive amount of Thunder energy."
"What?!" Chen Fan was startled. One must know that the energy contained in ten thousand Thunder Crystals was something even a Martial Saint could not withstand, let alone him.
But he did not believe Luo Jingyun was lying; if the other party had taken a fancy to his Thunder Crystals, there would be a hundred ways to make him hand them over obediently.
"Could it be..." Chen Fan thought of a possibility and hurriedly sank his consciousness into his Sea of Consciousness, summoning the System Panel.
Sure enough, the text for the original SSS-level Ability, Supreme Thunder-Devouring Dao Body, on the System Panel had actually changed.
SSS-level had strikingly changed to the two characters: God-level!
And the original Supreme Thunder-Devouring Dao Body had actually become Primordial Thunder Soul!
Chen Fan's breathing suddenly became rapid: "This is simply unimaginable; there is actually a God-level above SSS-level! My Thunder-type Ability has actually evolved into a God-level Ability—Primordial Thunder Soul!"
"System, what is the function of the Primordial Thunder Soul?" Chen Fan hurriedly asked.
"Apologies, Host, this question exceeds my knowledge base."
"Huh?" Chen Fan listened to the System's voice, a monstrous wave rising in his heart.
"The System actually doesn't know! This must be the first time the System has answered that it doesn't know, right?"
Chen Fan frowned slightly; previously, for every ability he obtained, the System could provide an explanation immediately.
"Could it be that this ability isn't recorded in the System? Or is there some other reason?" Chen Fan could not guess.
He had always wanted to get to the bottom of the System's mystery, but every time he asked about its origin, it would reply that his authority was insufficient and it could not inform him.
As for the required authority, the System would not tell him that either.
"The mystery of my soul-transmigration and the mystery of the System will be solved sooner or later!"
Chen Fan stopped dwelling on it; in any case, having his ability level raised to God-level was definitely a good thing.
As for exactly where this Primordial Thunder Soul was stronger than the Supreme Thunder-Devouring Dao Body, he would just have to wait and explore it slowly.
Beside him, seeing him open his eyes, Luo Jingyun hurriedly asked: "Is there anything unusual with your body!"
"No, it's doing great!" Chen Fan replied with a smile, while at the same time, a look of gratitude flashed in his eyes.
This ability upgrade was a case where the right time, the right place, and the right people were all indispensable!
The right time referred to the Thunder Nether Flower happening to break through the soil and being discovered by him.
The right place was that, fortunately, there was a large amount of Thunder Crystals here; otherwise, he would not have had enough energy to support the ability upgrade.
As for the right people, it was naturally Luo Jingyun happening to take out the Thunder Crystals to 'feed' his body.
"However, advancing to a God-level ability actually consumed a full ten thousand Thunder Crystals; it seems this God-level ability is indeed extraordinary!"
Chen Fan could not help but think to himself.
At the same time, he wondered if his Space Ability could also be upgraded, and he felt a faint sense of anticipation regarding what the ability would be after an upgrade.
At this moment, Luo Jingyun patted him on the shoulder and said: "Xiao Fan, we should go; if we don't go back, they will be worried!"
"Alright!" Chen Fan said, standing up. He exerted force with his legs, and his body leaped out of the ground crevice like a sharp sword.
However, just as he landed on the ground, Chen Fan suddenly froze in place.
"My cultivation has actually broken through as well!" Chen Fan opened his mouth wide in surprise once again.
At this moment, he had actually reached the Fifth Stage Late Phase!
"This crisis of the Vow Poison has actually allowed me to turn a misfortune into a blessing and gain so much!"
Chen Fan's thoughts stirred, and he threw a punch; the Thunder pierced through a thousand meters, leaving a deep pit in the ground.
Chen Fan could not help but swallow his saliva: "How strong am I now? I wonder if I can wrestle with an early-stage Grandmaster?"
Chen Fan calmed his inner excitement; an 8th-Rank Grandmaster was a top-tier combat force no matter where they were placed.
And now, at only nineteen years old, was he about to touch this height?
"Soon, my parents' revenge will be avenged very soon." Chen Fan thought to himself.
He planned to go to Beijing University and the South China Military Region to demand an explanation from those two once he advanced to the Sixth-Rank.
After all, those two were both heaven-gifted geniuses, and their combat power was far stronger than ordinary 8th-Rank Grandmasters!
Therefore, he felt he had a relatively good chance of success after advancing to the Sixth-Rank.
Shaking his head, Chen Fan stopped thinking about it and looked at Luo Jingyun: "Uncle Luo, can you let me see how fast a Martial Saint is?"
Luo Jingyun was a bit surprised, but he still smiled: "Then I'm afraid you can only eat my dust."
"That's not necessarily true!" Chen Fan smiled confidently; he wanted to see if his World's End Close-at-Hand Step could truly rival the speed of a Martial Saint.
Luo Jingyun laughed, his figure instantly disappearing from where he stood; that speed was simply too fast for the naked eye to see.
"World's End Close-at-Hand Step!" Chen Fan was startled and hurriedly used his fastest means to chase after Luo Jingyun.
Facts proved that even though he used this Space Divine Ability specifically for traveling, it was still impossible to match the speed of a Martial Saint.
However, having witnessed Chen Fan's speed, Luo Jingyun was still filled with surprise; he believed that even an ordinary Eighth-Order Peak Ability User could not catch up to Chen Fan's speed.
However, Chen Fan was very clear that although this Divine Ability of his did not consume much physical strength, it consumed a great deal of Mental Power.
To make this Divine Ability faster and more enduring, his Soul needed to become even more powerful.
"When you advance to Grandmaster, your Soul will receive a tremendous sublimation; I estimate that by then, this Divine Ability of yours should truly reach a level comparable to a Martial Saint," Luo Jingyun said, patting his shoulder.
"Grandmaster, is it?" Chen Fan felt noncommittal in his heart.
The two slowed their speed and headed in the direction of Hope City.
On the way, Chen Fan finally could not help but open his mouth to ask about the doubts in his heart.
"Uncle Luo, I have entered the Dream Realm of Luo Yao's mother. Wasn't Hope City buried in a Sea Beast tide during the clan's mass migration? Why are you all still alive and well?"
Previously, he had been focused on removing the oath poison and had not verified this matter, but now that the oath poison was resolved, he finally asked it.
A trace of reminiscence flashed in Luo Jingyun's eyes as he recounted how he had become trapped deep in the Beast Tide after sending Mo Youlan away.
It turned out that back then, Luo Jingyun had been trapped deep in the Beast Tide and did not die immediately; instead, just as his life was about to end, he had unexpectedly broken through to the Quasi-Saint realm.
With the help of his Quasi-Saint strength, he not only escaped from a group of Eighth Rank Sea Beasts but also led the remaining clansmen to fight their way out of the encirclement.
However, because they did not know the way to Blue Star, everyone had no choice but to return to Hope City.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, 19 years had passed, until Mo Yichen arrived here with Mo Youlan.
When Mo Yichen brought Mo Youlan here, Mo Youlan was still in a coma, and it was not until she sensed Luo Jingyun's aura that she slowly woke up.
"It really is the irony of fate," Chen Fan sighed with emotion after hearing this.
