Chapter 213 The Exchange of Inspirers
Duan Jie and Zhao Yaqian's preparations were not as comprehensive as Su Han's, merely involving further checks on their physical condition, regulating their mood, and gathering energy, ready to commence enhancement.
They already showed signs of Talent Awakening, with Duan Jie's combat intuition and Zhao Yaqian's danger perception indicating they were inherently more talented at a spiritual level than others.
As a result, they were naturally more sensitive to Spiritual Energy.
Indeed, it was also because the production capacity for injections and enhancement drugs at the South City camp was limited; otherwise, given such a vast population, there might have been even more talented individuals. Continue your saga on empire
However, they currently lacked sufficient resources, so the focus was primarily on Duan Jie and Zhao Yaqian.
"Third Order enhancement drugs might be quite a strain on your bodies, and if you can't handle it, I will stop the injection," Qilan cautioned.
By now, both were rated as Second-order Superior, and after several body enhancements, their physical strength was not negligible either, but the power of the Third Order was still immense, and even one dose of enhancement drug couldn't match the full strength of a Third Order Monster.
However, the energy contained within was still not to be underestimated.
"Professor, we are ready,"
Duan Jie and Zhao Yaqian responded seriously to Bai Qiuwen. Much of the injectors they used came from the Tree Domain Camp, so there was continuity, which meant it shouldn't be too disastrous.
"Then, let's start,"
Bai Qiuwen nodded, signaling his students to activate the device and then slowly infusing the enhancement drug into their bodies, much like an IV drip.
As the enhancement drug entered their systems, Duan Jie and Zhao Yaqian immediately felt a surge of power flooding into their bodies.
'This powerful?!'
The two were startled, never imagining the strength to be greater than they had anticipated, especially since they were already Second-order Superior.
Now that the injection had begun, all changes had to be endured.
So, both immediately concentrated on absorbing the energy, the swelling and tearing pain causing their veins to bulge and sweat to bead on their foreheads.
Skipping levels in absorbing enhancement drugs was never going to be comfortable.
Yet, amidst the intense pain, as they resisted the shock of the energy, the initially vague and thin barrier-like talent seemed to break through a bottleneck.
Pale purple Spiritual Energy gradually gathered on the surface of their bodies, with Duan Jie's purple light wrapping around his body, while Zhao Yaqian's was mainly concentrated around her eyes.
"They must be awakening,"
Seeing this, Tian Jiaxuan's eyes lit up with excitement. The energy levels in both their bodies were rising, and the surrounding Spiritual Energy was becoming stronger.
"Calm down, Old Tian. They are not having an easy time,"
Bai Qiuwen's expression was grave; they had only used half of the enhancement drug, and the next part would determine their success.
No sooner had Bai Qiuwen spoken than Duan Jie let out a painful grunt, blood starting to leak from his nose and mouth.
"Professor, should we..."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"No, I, I can... hang on"
Duan Jie's eyes were wide open, and he practically gritted out the words.
"Let him continue,"
Bai Qiuwen spoke gravely, respecting Duan Jie's choice. Without knowing what extent Duan Jie had reached and what condition the silent Zhao Yaqian was in, it was difficult to judge.
Everyone waited quietly, and finally, the glow around Duan Jie merged into his body, his muscles bulged, emanating a faint purple light, and his skin was thinly covered with Spiritual Energy.
At his arms, the Spiritual Energy condensed slightly, resembling sharp beast claws.
"This..."
Everyone watched in amazement. Duan Jie's eyes sharpened, now vertical and purple like those of a wild beast, and his stature also became slightly taller after being enveloped by the energy.
With a leap, he soared four or five meters into the air and landed heavily in front of Bai Qiuwen.
He excitedly said, "Professor Bai, I succeeded."
Under the veil of energy, his beast-like combat instincts became more terrifying. His perception of techniques and seizing offensive opportunities significantly improved. Moreover, in this state, he felt like a real Spiritual Energy beast, possessing enormous comprehensive strength, almost approaching the pinnacle of those Second-order Superior monsters, not far from the Third Order.
"You rest for now,"
Although Bai Qiuwen was pleased, there was still one person, Zhao Yaqian, who had not completed the awakening. Her eyes were completely closed, her Spiritual Energy getting denser, even as the enhancement drugs were running out, yet she still hadn't awakened.
In Bai Qiuwen's eyes, concern was apparent, yet he didn't know that Zhao Yaqian had already successfully awakened and was immersed in the Spiritual World.
...
In the Spiritual World, Zhao Yaqian was feeling the fading of worldly colors, leaving only the base color of Spiritual Energy, so bizarre yet magnificent, as if everything was within her perception.
It wasn't just everything in the Prosperous Chemical Factory, but also the further industrial park, and she could even see places beyond...
"If you don't want to faint, don't overextend your perception,"
Zhao Yaqian was intending to perceive further, especially towards that radiant point.
However, just then, the voice of Bai Qilan sounded, stopping Zhao Yaqian in her tracks.
"Miss Bai, how is it possible that you...?"
Zhao Yaqian looked shocked in the Spiritual World, seeing Bai Qilan's Spiritual Energy Phantom appear before her.
At the moment of her complete awakening, the presence of a talent had reached Bai Qilan near the Tree Domain Camp, prompting her to immerse herself immediately.
