Psychic Inventor In Cultivation World
285 Chapter 281 : : Checking The Notifications
Rex agreed then opened the interface to check the notifications he got after completing his evolution.
[Congratulations! you have successfully completed the evolutionary process without any serious issues]
[Congratulations on obtaining your first Multi-Type ability 'Bilocation']
[Exceptional ability category has been created]
[You have unlocked Battle-Wings: Second Form]
[You have obtained a new trait 'Darkness Immunity']
[You have obtained a new trait 'Shadow Immunity']
[You have obtained a new trait 'Node-Network']

[You have awakened a new hidden talent 'Gene Coding']
[Your Bloodline mode's status boost has been increased to 50%]
[Your Exp extraction rate has increased to 30-35%]
Rex noticed that there was no Physique ability this time but he wasn't surprised, no one guaranteed that he would get all types of abilities after the evolution moreover his gains were more compared to the last evolution.
He then looked at the names for a moment before he opened the full description of Levitate, Essence Devourer, and Bilocation.
[Levitate:-
Type: Psychic
Grade: Ungraded
Description: It's an ability that allows you to change the weight of a subject whether it is living or non-living as long as it is in contact with you, or your body itself. The limit to which you can decrease or increase the weight of the subject depends on you and the subject itself. You can make it as light as a feather that can even float in the air or heavy enough to sink in the ground.
Cool Down: None
Cost: None]
[Essence Devourer:-
Type: Bloodline
Grade: Ungraded
Description: It's an ability that allows you to absorb all types of essence from the target's body after ingesting it, then after refining the essences of the target you can absorb it to strengthen your constitution and recover the lost essence or store it in the concentrated form after refining it for other uses.
When strengthening the constitution, the ratio at which the benefits will be allocated to the status is predefined in the ratio 7:2:1 : : Vitality : Endurance : Others. The benefits will not be allocated to INT, WIS, SPT, and LUC.
Cool Down: None
Cost: None]
[Bilocation:-
Type: Psychic / Bloodline
Grade: Ungraded
The clones made will disappear after they had lost their whole health in a battle or their Qi reserves are finished, they can also self detonate under your command. In a certain range, the clones will follow your orders once they are out of range they will keep following the predefined order and if there is no ongoing order they will disappear even if they had HP and Qi reserve.
The number of clones you can make doesn't have a limit but the number of clones you can control at once depends on you.
Cool Down: None
Cost: 100P Yin Qi / 100P Yang Qi / 100P Spirit Qi / (50P Yin Qi + 50P Yang Qi) + 100P HP]
Rex blankly stared at the description of the three skills, then he stood up and walked to Lerna.
"Huh? what do you... want?" Lerna said when she saw Rex coming to her.
Rex pointed at her chest then spoke.
"Can I fondle them?" Rex asked with a serious face.
..BOOM…
[-131 HP]
Rex received an uppercut on his chin then crashed into the ceiling, the defensive array on the ceiling shined preventing him from breaking it, then he fell to the floor.
"Have you eaten something wrong today? didn't I tell you not to eat any herbs or the meat of any beast blindly?" Lerna stared at him with an annoyed look.
Rex raised his head from the floor and touched his chin.
"So it's not a dream," Rex muttered to himself.
[…]
"…" (Lerna)
Rex then stood off from the ground and quietly sat on the bed as he looked at the description of the abilities.
Lerna ignored him and focused on reading her book again.
'Rose this Essence Devourer, if I keep devouring someone else essence and increase mine by doing that… for example if I keep increasing my life essence then haven't I already achieved immortality, whenever my lifespan decreases I can just absorb others and I will always exist, Heavenly Dao will definitely not allows something like that but there is no heavenly trail… so if what I am thinking is right then this ability should have a limit or fault,' Rex thought.
[Yes it does, as the description says it will only allow you to regain the lost essence but it meant the lost essence of that you should have at your age. Let's take an example of life essence, if your total lifespan is of 100 years and you are 20 years old, then it would consider your life span limit 80 which means if you lost your life essence of those 80 years for some reason then it can be recovered, as long as you haven't lost it by aging it can be recovered but if you have lost it by aging then your life essence won't increase by using it, so no you haven't become immortal by this.]
'As I thought, now before I examine traits, I really want to use this one…' Rex thought.
'Bilocation' (Rex)
Suddenly Rex saw that a red-colored fog resembling blood vapor came out of the micro skin pores on his body followed by 50P Yin Qi and 50P Yang Qi, then they all got collected in front of Rex and started to take a humanoid shape.
This was what others would normally see, but Rex could sense that all these three were surrounded by psychic energy, soon the fog started to give off a white light as it took a humanoid shape and when the light disappeared a silhouette same as Rex in appearance was standing there.
The clone was wearing the same cloth as Rex, other's may not be able to tell that where do these clothes came from but Rex could easily sense that they were also made of psychic energy. With every ability Rex gained, he began to realize the true potential of psychic energy that it could do was already beyond the common sense of normal cultivators.
Lerna sensed something and turned around to look at Rex but what greeted her was two Rex looking back at her, she blankly stared at them for a while then turned to real Rex and asked.
"What is this thing?" Lerna asked.
It was easy for her to tell the difference between real Rex and fake, the life signature may appear similar to each other but the clone had a very weak life signature while Rex's life signature surpassed a normal human by a lot in her eyes.
Rex sighed… as expected these clones cannot fool an expert.
"During seclusion, I received sudden enlightenment and got this technique," Rex said.
"Can you teach it to me," Lerna immediately asked.
"Why?" Rex asked, she hadn't learned a single normal technique since gaining humanoid from and is still waiting for learning a cultivation technique and now she suddenly wanted to learn a technique.
Cloning techniques maybe be rare but weren't impossible, although they may not be the same as Rex's but they did exist in a big variety with each having their pros and cons.
"If I can make a lot of clones then won't I be able to read a lot of books at the same time," Lerna said with a faint smile, she felt like this was a really good idea.
Rex's lips can't help but twitch.
He felt like the ability that just moved him to tears has been ridiculed thoroughly, something that felt like a dream to him was being seen as a toy in her eyes…. is it the prestige of a Calamity Lord?
In fact, Rex knew why she said that it was a common knowledge among people that the clones are never as strong as the original person, having not much battle power, many just use them to distract the enemy and escape in life-threatening situations, furthermore, a clone cannot actually replicate many abilities of the owner so it's pretty much useless in battles between powerhouse.
"It's related to my bloodline and the cultivation technique I practice so you don't meet the requirements to learn it," Rex said.
Lerna was a little disappointed after hearing that, she sighed then continued reading her book.
'Appraisal' (Rex)
[Name: Rex's Clone No.1
HP: 100P
Yin Qi: 50P
Yang Qi: 50P]
'Just that, Rose tell me something, they can't think much but should be able to do what they are told so if I give them a lot of blueprints then, can they make the things in them?' Rex asked.
[They can, as long as the thing in the blueprint doesn't surpass their ability, like if they needed more then the Qi they have, they will disappear after their Qi is used up]
'Hmmm… they won't lose HP out of anywhere but this Qi is the problem, Rose, if I store my Qi in batteries like I usually do then, can they use it to refill themselves,' Rex asked.
[They can]
The words looked very beautiful to Rex.
Now those high-grade Qi Replenishing Potions will finally come into use… he thought.
'One more question, what do you think is the highest number of clones I can control at the moment?' Rex asked.
[According to my calculations, it's 39 at max]
'I see… then give me a brief introduction of Brain-Codex and Gene Coding,' Rex said.
[Node-Network is mostly similar to what that Red Scaled Millipede had, now nine nodes are residing in your body that has lesser pseudo-consciousness allowing them to work as mini-brains, the eight junior brains are attached to your eight different limbs, all those eight nodes are then connected to the ninth node attached to the Core Bladder, the ninth node had a direct connection with your main brain and can work as a senior commander commanding the other eight junior nodes,]
Rex thought for a while then started to count all his limbs again then after making sure he didn't count wrong, he asked.
'Little Rose, even if I include my little brother I still don't have enough limbs to count until eight,' Rex said.
[…]
'Don't tell you are counting those four battle wings too? do we even need to control them separately, even if you have extra nodes giving them 2 was fine to take care of one pair each,' Rex said.
[It's not for the first form but Battle Wings: Second Form, that form is more battle oriented than just flying or defending, you can try to use it when you are outside and you will know,]
Rex nodded.
[As for Gene Coding it's not easy for you to make good use of it with your current strength but I will still give you a brief explanation. This talent is similar to what I do during evolution, I mean changing the flow of mutating gene to change the resultant product, in this case, it's more of a manual type ability but from what I think it has high potential especially when you try to put your hands on bio field.
This ability won't help you in triggering mutation in someone, but after the mutation started you can interface and make changes in their DNA signature, here the knowledge stored in DNA Codex will be very helpful, using it you can check the compatibility of the mutating being with other beings. For example, a human is mutating then you can check it's compatibility with any monster type DNA and change it's DNA signature structure while taking the most compatible one in reference.
Remember the process is not automatic you need to do it on your own, I can off course help but I can only help I don't have any data on this kind of thing and the process will be different every time which means it needs flexible thinking and my error-retry method will not help here, controlling the process is very hard with your current strength so you should wait at least until you break through to Golden Core Stage,]
'Why are you getting so worked up, I don't have anything that can instantly start mutation in anyone on the spot you know, from your words even for practice I would need someone like a caterpillar that is turned into a cocoon, leave these things aside, for now, let's prepare for the battle tomorrow, I will make 39 clones before morning to help me win, hmmm… it doesn't hurt to be careful let's prepare a few more trump cards,' Rex thought.
