YM778.TV Chapter 134: One with the Sky
If he wanted to advance this skill further, it would require fifty thousand mutation energy just to progress.
This made him pause because Ray could definitely advance his A-class skill, Overlord of the Sky, to its maximum level, and also advance Space Mastery at least once.
But Ray was a little hesitant because he also needed mutation energy to cast his skills.
The most consuming was Overlord of the Sky; although its power was terrifying, the consumption was equally terrifying.
Without the reserve of mutation energy that Ray had, one would never be able to cause rain, let alone fill the entire sky with thunder and lightning.
That would be simply impossible!
"Hmm, forget it."
Ray directly upgraded his A-class skill with a thought.
The red panel flickered in front of him, and before it could even materialise, he could already feel the changes in his body as the warm energy flowed through him, strengthening his physique and making his vitality grow more abundant with every second.
As vast information appeared in his mind again, coming from the exact same source as his own Gene, it was labelled:
[Overlord of the Sky (Awakening IV)] > [Overlord of the Sky (Awakening V)]
As the mutation energy disappeared from Ray\'s body, all the information began to funnel in, causing him to take a deep breath.
The information was as vast as the Gene Synchronisation, if not even more, including techniques on how to circulate the mutation energy and the set of visuals he needed to follow.
Ray felt a little disoriented, his world spinning with dizziness as he sat down on the ground, carefully filtering all the information he had received.
Compared to Gene Synchronisation, this had not caused such an exaggerated effect as Overlord of the Sky; however, that was due to its class, which had inevitably become higher than Gene Synchronisation.
Previously, Ray had found Gene Synchronisation unimaginably vast and far more complex than Overlord of the Sky.
Overlord of the Sky was mainly based on the principle of changes using mutation energy, while Gene Synchronisation was based on the principle of Gene, a complex topic on its own.
Without his mental strength, Ray\'s ordinary brain would have likely failed, causing his mind to literally explode. He wasn\'t on the bright side but he wasn\'t that bad either, just average.
This was the price to pay for advancing skills solely through mutation energy.
Ordinary Awakeners needed to gradually adapt to their circumstances and stabilise their power if they wanted to advance further; this was true even for S-class Awakeners.
Being an S-class Awakener simply meant having the potential to reach a higher level; in some cases, the power of S-class Awakeners in the initial phase was even lower than that of lower-class Awakeners.
"Hmm."
After an hour or so, Ray slowly opened his eyes and immediately felt the changes in his surroundings.
He slightly moved his eyes, and the entire building began to tremble as if it were an earthquake.
"If I push a little, I could lift this entire building with just my thoughts."
Ray muttered as he slowly floated up from the ground.
He didn\'t need to exert any effort to fly, not even using his strength or mutation energy. Ray moved gracefully through the air, as if he were born to fly.
It was as natural as breathing, completely unfettered and free.
Ray floated towards the mirror and then gently moved his mind.
The walls in the corners of the mirrors began to break apart like webs, making creaking sounds.
When Ray looked again, the window had already separated itself from the wall, and he slowly floated away from the building.
Ray didn\'t stop there, continuing to float upward until he reached the clouds.
He looked down at the tall skyscrapers, which had become mere dots in his vision, and observed the entire structure of the continent.
"I feel like I own the world."
Ray tightened his fist, and in an instant, the entire world seemed to change.
The clouds moved, covering the entire continent.
"This power…"
Ray stared dazedly at the black clouds enveloping him. With a thought, they dispersed as if they had never existed.
Then his body began to slowly vanish from existence.
First, his fingers began to blur and disappear, followed by his entire arms. Then his body, his legs, and finally his head faded away from existence.
Clouds began to form in the sky once more, but their shapes were entirely different from anything.
The clouds now took on the form of a strikingly handsome young man\'s face, his appearance so captivating that it could make any girl\'s heart flutter just by looking at him.
His short hair seemed to ripple with the wind, and his mouth curved upward into a knowing, almost mischievous sneer.
"I have become one with the sky, and the sky has become me."
The mouth of the cloud seemed to open as a deep voice crackled throughout the entire continent.
The voice didn\'t merely echo across the land; it surged through the atmosphere, resonating from one continent to another, and reached into the very heavens themselves.
Not only did it reach this continent, but it also resounded across the other continent, echoing throughout the heavens in all their glory.
Every creature on the planet raised its head. For people on Ray\'s continent, their pupils immediately froze, their bodies trembling and terror gripping their hearts.
However, for creatures from the other continent, there was only confusion.
As everyone looked at Ray\'s face in the sky, some fanatics began to worship him, while others uttered the word: "Devil."
But no matter what was happening, Ray muttered to himself while looking at his reflection in the river.
"Hmm, I definitely look handsome."
Then he moved his body.
Immediately, the clouds shifted and gathered around him to form a colossal human figure in the sky.
Ray\'s face merged seamlessly with the clouds.
"How interesting, huh…"
He thought to himself while surveying his surroundings.
Ray was still floating in the sky, but he was very close to reaching the ground from the height of the clouds, demonstrating just how immense his cloudy figure was.
"Oh, Vanessa."
He turned toward his city and slightly squinted his eyes at all his women, who looked at Ray with disbelief in their eyes.
Ray slowly moved his cloudy form through the air as he approached the city.
Almost all the residents had emerged from their buildings, staring at Ray with terror in their eyes.
"What is that monster?"
"Shh, can\'t you see that handsome face?"
"Eh?"
"The face looks like the face of the hidden master of our city, Ray."
A stunned silence spread through the crowd as Ray\'s name was mentioned.
People began to pay closer attention to the face, their eyes widening in disbelief.
"It really does look like Master Ray."
A girl said, her cheeks flushing red.
"What are you thinking about, girl? You\'re way out of your league if you even think you have a chance."
"Then do you have a chance?" the girl pouted.
Ray, in his cloud form, naturally heard the murmurs, and an amused smile appeared on his face.
With a mere thought, his giant cloudy form vanished, replaced by his physical body once again.
"Ray."
All the women were the first to approach him, their faces etched with concern.
"Are you alright, Ray?" Freya asked, worry evident in her voice.
"What could happen to me?" Ray shrugged. "I was just testing my power."
"You\'re really becoming more and more like a god," Freya muttered, smiling as she touched her tummy.
"Well, if I\'m a god, then you\'ll be my goddess," he whispered in her ear with a smile on his face.
"You all would be my goddesses, won\'t you?"
Ray looked at the girls, who were already flustered.
"Hahaha, let\'s go inside."
With that, everyone went back inside the building, enjoying their time together. Ray also synchronised his Gene with each and every one of his women to ensure their safety at all times, as he didn\'t want a tragedy like Aurora to happen again.
…
In the heart of the Earth\'s core, the woman slowly opened her emerald eyes, her loose green clothes fluttering around her.
She gritted her teeth, her face full of anger.
"That bastard dared to be so arrogant…"
But even more than a slight trace of fear appeared in her mind.
"If it were before, I could have dealt with him easily, but now my power is waning. Even if I wanted to confront him, those seven brothers of mine would be right around the corner, ready to attack."
Her expression turned thoughtful. Her mind seemed to transform into an intricate web of computers, processing all the knowledge in the world.
In the end, she spoke with a tone of deep wisdom and a smirk:
"What I can\'t defeat, I can make into my allies."
