I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

After experimenting with the 'Feather Transformation' ability for a while with great enthusiasm, Xue Jing suddenly felt heavy all over.

The gravity of the planet started to take effect on him, causing him to tumble head over heels toward the ground.

However, Xue Jing did not panic, but simply opened his panel calmly as he fell.

The Extraordinary Skill bar for [Feather Transformation] had gone dim.

"The Blue Bar is exhausted, huh... This energy consumption is indeed a problem,"

he said to himself. Your next chapter is on empire

"However, it's not a big problem."

He clicked to upgrade [Feather Transformation].

Currently, Xue Jing had 2766 points of Divinity, which was more than sufficient.

Moreover, he planned to visit Xu's Biological Company again soon, where he expected further gains.

In Qingcheng, the government still owed him ten Divine Relics.

It was just Divinity, what's the big deal?

[Feather Transformation Lv2 (Divinity needed for upgrade: 2666/300)]

[Feather Transformation Lv3 (Divinity needed for upgrade: 2366/500)]

[Feather Transformation Lv4 (Divinity needed for upgrade: 1866/800)]

[Feather Transformation Lv5 (Divinity needed for upgrade: 1066/1200)]

He upgraded Feather Transformation all the way to Lv5 in one go, and Xue Jing reactivated Feather Transformation on himself, halting in mid-air.

Then, he suddenly shot upwards, soaring into the sky at high speed.

After rising nearly a thousand meters, Xue Jing stopped and did some mental calculations.

"At Lv1, the flight speed wasn't much different from my running speed, around 80 to 90 meters,"

"Now at Lv5, it has increased to about eight seconds per kilometer... roughly 120 meters per second."

This improvement might not seem big, but it was actually quite significant.

The skill Feather Transformation, after being activated, would liberate the object from the grip of gravity – there was no difference between Lv1 and Lv5 in this regard.

But on Earth Star, there existed a factor that most profoundly affected speed — air resistance.

The faster the speed, the greater the air resistance; this formula becomes more exaggerated the further you go.

It seemed that from Lv1 to Lv5 there was only about a thirty-meter increase per second, but in a vacuum with no resistance, the difference would be much more.

Xue Jing pointed his finger like a sword at the Forgotten Greatsword below.

The Forgotten Greatsword moved as he willed, its speed almost doubled from before, surpassing the one-third increase in Xue Jing's flying speed.

"The surface area at the tip of the sword is much smaller than a human's body; it encounters less air resistance, thus the enhancement is more noticeable..."

At such a speed level, beheading someone would be a matter of a blink of an eye.

Xue Jing's gaze turned to [Feather Transformation] on the panel.

Due to the upgrade, the skill's name color had become a radiant light gold again, and because of the four consecutive level ups, the Blue Bar's capacity had also increased significantly.

Currently controlling the movement of the Forgotten Greatsword, although its color was also gradually dimming, the loss in speed was barely detectable; Xue Jing roughly estimated the Blue Bar capacity had increased by more than five times, quite satisfying.

But soon, Xue Jing noticed another point that somewhat disappointed him.

He compared controlling his own flight to the flight of the giant sword and found that the giant sword consumed ten times more energy than he did...

"The heavier the object, the more severe the energy depletion..."

Xue Jing murmured.

The ability Feather Transformation was very convenient, able to directly lift the burden of gravity on objects, creating a state similar to being in outer space.

And while the object would lose its weight, its mass would not change, so the inertia during movement and flight remained, and the power would not diminish for lack of weight.

Therefore, Xue Jing originally had an idea... for instance, to buy a mountain and use Feather Transformation on it.

With 'billions of tons' of mass, damn, no matter if it's an Overlord, Martial Saint, or Army Master, getting smashed by that would knock the drool out of them, if not outright kill them.

However, the energy consumption of Feather Transformation was related to the object's own mass... so that idea was not feasible.

A two-ton Forgotten Greatsword might still be manageable, but a billion-ton mountain... he feared that the moment he lifted it, the Blue Bar for Feather Transformation would be drained in a second.

"Let it be for now,"

Xue Jing dove quickly toward the ground, returning from a thousand meters in the air to the earth in a few seconds.

He pointed with his hand, like a Sword Immortal from cultivation stories, and the Forgotten Greatsword 'whizzed' through the air to his side, then the Nonexistent Beast opened its mouth and swallowed it like a void into its belly.

"Let's rest for today; there's still time,"

Xue Jing raised his hands and stretched languidly.

The U19 grand finals were still five days away; he had plenty of time to visit Xu's Biology and find another [Wind of All Beginnings].

With the Nonexistent Beast, he had already figured out how to get around the complete blockades on levels 1097 and 1098.

He would find time to take a stroll through there later.

...

The next day at noon, Xue Jing was sitting cross-legged on the rooftop of the villa, his upper body erect.

Perhaps because of the influence of the two Titled Strongmen clashing in the air yesterday, today's weather wasn't great; the sun was obscured by clouds, and a steady, light rain fell continuously from the sky.

All the rain falling toward Xue Jing would turn aside about two inches above his head, sliding off to the sides as if he wore an invisible semi-circular canopy.

This was the result of his physique naturally sensing the rain and unconsciously releasing an invisible Qi Force, not an intentional action.

His consciousness was already immersed in the practice of Yellow Grannie Skill.

Under the internal view, his internal organs breathed rhythmically, like living creatures stirring in the womb.

Although it was a lightless environment, Xue Jing inside could still feel a glossy 'luster' emanating from the surfaces of his organs – clear and lustrous, giving an initial impression of health and vigor.
