Chapter 38: Origin Energy Lights

As the dots of light entered his body, Su Chen felt a strand of warmth course through him. This feeling was very faint, and Su Chen even wondered if the feeling was a figment of his imagination.

However, following this strand of warmth, Su Chen’s arm began to move slightly.

He could now raise his arm.

Su Chen’s eyes began to gleam.

Could this really be Origin Energy?

But if it was true, how could he see Origin Energy?

Su Chen was mystified.

Su Chen thought of what had happened after he had been rooted and experienced the soul-splitting.

Could it be that after he had received a soul attack, his own eyes had once again evolved?

Could it be because he had absorbed the energy of the soul attack? Or could it be because his mind had received a stimulus of sorts?

Su Chen did not know. He could only wait and slowly mull over it.

Evidently, these Origin Energy dots could not exist for too long in the air. From the moment they appeared, they began to dissipate gradually.

Upon seeing this, Su Chen suddenly realized that it was because Origin Energy could not exist in this form.

These dots of light represented Origin Energy that the ape had cultivated and condensed over countless days and months. Although they appeared simple, in reality they had been constantly refined over a long period of time. They were true condensates of Origin Energy.

When an Origin Energy user died, their Origin Energy would no longer be restricted and would leave their bodies, returning to the world from whence it came. All of the Origin Energy that had been refined would also lose its cohesiveness, and would disperse, reverting to its natural, free state.

The withering away of these dots of light was actually just a natural dispersal of refined energy.

Su Chen’s eyes could not see the true, unadulterated form of Origin Energy. However, Su Chen could at least see the aggregates that it formed.

This was an opportunity!

This thought instantly flashed across his brain.

He knew what he should do.

Su Chen raised his hand, then pointed at a dot of light in the air, focusing his efforts on exercising his absorbance technique.

The dots of light were like drops of water, rolling around on Su Chen’s skin. It was as if they were very unwilling to be absorbed by Su Chen. But with Su Chen’s body constantly emitting an absorptive force, along with his great persistence, the resistance became weaker and weaker. Eventually, the dot entered Su Chen’s body.

That faint yet familiar feeling of warmth appeared once more..

Su Chen also felt his mental and physical strength recover further.

Su Chen yelled in his heart. In terms of the Origin Energy he gained, absorbing just one ball of light was equivalent to what he would gain from cultivating for a few days.

How many days would this save him?

Su Chen did not know, but he did not care. The most important thing was to not waste this opportunity!

Although he had exercised his absorbance technique upon killing the Mirage Lynx, he had not been able to see those dots at the time, so he could only exercise it blindly. As for any extra energy he had absorbed then, it had depended solely on luck.

Now that he had a tangible direction to focus his technique in, his success rate had greatly increased.

Su Chen began to use all his efforts to absorb the motes of light floating in the air.

The Jade-Eyed Ape’s Origin Energy dissipated very quickly. Not long afterwards, it had completely disappeared. Su Chen had only been able to absorb eight dots of Origin Energy.

Even if it was only eight dots of Origin Energy, Su Chen very clearly felt different.
