Socially anxious people transmigrate to another world; living in seclusion is too difficult.
Chapter 10 Surviving the Disaster
"Hiss! Ah..."
As a chill swept over him, Su Yang, clutching his head, gradually awoke with a low, painful howl.
This was the second time Su Yang had fainted due to mental exhaustion. He slumped onto the rock, staring blankly at the surging seawater caused by the rising tide, seemingly lost in thought.
As if startled awake, Su Yang suddenly looked around, but found nothing.
"Could it be that because of the exhaustion of my mental energy, my memory and reaction speed are also declining? I only just remembered being surrounded by ice crystal wolves and falling off the cliff." Su Yang slapped his forehead, somewhat helplessly. "But this mental energy is just too insufficient."
“That’s not a problem of not having enough mental energy.” At this moment, Die’er transformed back into her butterfly form. “No one on this continent would use mental energy to condense matter into physical form as casually as you do. The consumption from thought to physical form is enormous, and it’s not used lightly unless absolutely necessary. Haven’t you noticed why your radar consumes almost nothing when you use it?”
"So, according to you, as long as you don't use the ability to materialize, mental power is perfectly sufficient? But if you don't materialize, how do you fight?" Su Yang asked, puzzled. It was obviously difficult for a modern person to think outside the box of fighting without using weapons.
“Elemental power itself is the best weapon, but you keep thinking about turning weapons into weapons. Isn’t that taking a roundabout way?”
"Moreover, elemental power is not a fixed form, it has no specific shape. It can reside around a person's body or penetrate deep into the body. Therefore, combining the human body with elemental power and directly using elemental power to strengthen oneself is the best way to fight. It consumes little energy, is highly effective, and can also fully protect one's safety. Since you came here, haven't you noticed that those ferocious beasts cannot sense the existence of elements when they are not fighting, but when they fight, elemental power naturally bursts out from their bodies?" Butterfly lectured, at this moment she seemed to have become a strict teacher.
“I wanted to see your talent before, but you can’t keep going like this. Starting today, follow my method and practice using elemental power on the island,” Die’er said sternly.
“Okay, but before that, I have a question: can all creatures in this world use elemental power to fly?” Su Yang recalled the last scene before he lost consciousness after falling off the cliff last night and couldn’t help but ask.
"Actually, no. Flight can only be achieved by releasing elemental particles to the outside world through the enhanced elemental synthesis. Beasts without intelligence or with low intelligence cannot fly. In addition, this process consumes too much energy, and many people cannot sustain it for a long time. Even if they can fly, they can only fly a short distance. However, humans at level 5 and above can fly for a much longer time because of their high mental strength."
“I understand.” Su Yang indicated that he understood. “Let’s go, let’s practice flying first, then go back to the shelter to see if the meat is still there.”
Su Yang then practiced using the feeling from the previous night and quickly mastered the ability to fly. He then returned to the top of the cliff and hid behind a rock to observe the situation.
The shelter was in complete disarray. Su Yang guessed that the meat had all been stolen, so there was no point in staying there any longer. They would have to find a new place to rebuild.
Su Yang led Die'er back to the bottom of the cliff and walked along the sea. After a while, they found a cave on a beach. It was some distance from the sea, so there was no need to worry about the tide. The space was also large enough, so they decided to stay there for the time being.
While cleaning the cave, Su Yang unexpectedly discovered a skeleton. It appeared to be a carnivorous beast from the land, with four huge and sharp teeth on its jawbone. Just as Su Yang was dragging the skeleton out, an egg the size of a palm rolled down to Su Yang's feet.
"Butterfly, what kind of creature's egg is this?" Su Yang picked up the egg with both hands, examined it from left to right, and asked Butterfly after trying to figure it out.
"Hmm... Judging from the skeleton and the appearance of this egg, I feel it's most likely a Sky-Splitting Tiger egg," Die'er replied after some thought.
"Tiger? How can tigers lay eggs? They should be viviparous." Su Yang asked, puzzled. "Oh, this isn't the original world anymore. Maybe oviparous tigers are the normal thing."
"No, the Sky-Splitting Tiger is viviparous, but it has a unique characteristic: at the very end of its life, the female Sky-Splitting Tiger will dissolve its flesh, fur, and all its spiritual power, condensing them into an egg, which is its last and strongest offspring," Die'er explained.
Su Yang, being a human from Blue Star, had a great interest in agricultural and pastoral life. He immediately decided to keep the egg and figure out a way to tame it after it hatched. Die'er also thought it was feasible, as taming ferocious beasts had always been a custom on the Dragon Continent. In the end, the two of them kept the egg, and the cleaning work at the shelter was almost done.
As dusk fell, Su Yang lit a fire, on which sat fish he had just caught from the sea. He ate while observing the egg, but it seemed to remain unresponsive, so Su Yang simply stopped paying attention to it.
After eating, Su Yang re-entered the strange space in his mind. There stood the tree radiating white light. He went to the base of the tree, where it was written:
Name: Su Yang
Age: 20
Elemental Power: Cloud, Development Progress 28.57%
Meanwhile, the longer branches from the previous growth became even thicker and were surrounded by purple light.
"This should represent my cloud element, right? Last time, when my mental power was level 3, the development progress was only 14.28%. According to the data displayed this time, I'm already level 6? Isn't the highest level supposed to be level 7? Is there an even higher level? I'll ask Die'er later." Thinking this, Su Yang exited the Element Tree World.
"Butterfly, I only know that mental power can be upgraded, but I don't understand about the levels of mental power." Su Yang called out softly.
Soon, Die'er materialized and said, "Strictly speaking, there are only seven levels of mental power. The higher the level, the higher the level of the bracelet that can be used, and the stronger the power that can be exerted. However, level X bracelets are not restricted by mental power level."
Butterfly paused, then added:
"However, there are demons in this world who possess dual elemental powers. I have also learned in the past that the spiritual power level of demons is different according to the element and is not universal. For example, a demon may possess both earth and wood elements. His spiritual power level for earth element is level 3, but his level for wood element may be level 2 or higher. This is why demons are stronger, but their growth time is longer."
"I understand"
After listening to Die'er's explanation, Su Yang found it even harder to understand his development progress, thinking to himself:
"According to Die'er, I'm already level 6, so my development progress should be quite high. Could it be that I'm also a multi-element possessor? This element tree might have formed naturally after I transmigrated because the world is different. I can just use math to work backwards to roughly verify it."
Thinking about it, Su Yang found a piece of charcoal and started writing and drawing on the ground. He quickly deduced that he should possess the power of three elements, but currently he could only use the cloud element, so there must be some limitations.
"Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. Things will work out in the end. This battle with the Ice Crystal Wolf Clan not only raised my level, but also taught me how to fly. In addition, I found a better shelter than before. It can be considered that I survived a great disaster and will surely be blessed with good fortune. Let's take it easy."
As he pondered, Su Yang slowly closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.
