96: Chapter 96 Active Absorption

Through "Absolute Adaptation," Lin Sheng controlled the "chaotic information," allowing it to grow around his claws, inside his mouth, and around his throat, effectively preventing burns from the black stones.

Once Lin Sheng struck with a claw wrapped in "chaotic information," the scalding sensation the black stones gave him was gone.

He tossed a black stone into his mouth, and the notification for evolution points being credited rang in his ears once more.

Although the evolution points earned each time weren't much—only a few million.

But the stones Lin Sheng dug out each time weren't very large either.

These two stones were smaller than Lin Sheng's claws, just small enough for one of his claws to grip.

Lin Sheng could have dug out a larger stone, but stones weren't living creatures.

A creature's body could be compressed; Lin Sheng could squeeze it smaller to swallow it.

But stones couldn't.

If they were too big, Lin Sheng couldn't fit them in his mouth, and thus couldn't swallow them.

There were no other creatures here, so Lin Sheng didn't need to rush and gorge himself on "stones."

The South Pole was in a state of eternal daylight, with no concept of time.

Lin Sheng felt like he had been eating black stones for a long time; looking around, he had already dug a massive circular pit with a radius of ten thousand meters.

Lin Sheng glanced at two pieces of his information.

Body Length: 6,900 meters

evolution points: 171 billion

After eating for an unknown amount of time, Lin Sheng had gained over 100 billion evolution points, and his body length had increased by 300 meters.

This was much faster than gaining evolution points by devouring creatures.

When encountering stronger creatures, Lin Sheng would need to consume evolution points to enhance his talents if he didn't want to get bogged down with them.

But with the black stones, he just had to keep digging them up and swallowing them.

Lin Sheng rose and circled in the sky above South Pole Mountain.

Looking out, this pit with a twenty-thousand-meter diameter had almost no impact on South Pole Mountain.

Compared to the massive South Pole Mountain, it was as insignificant and inconspicuous as a tiny hole.

Returning to South Pole Mountain, Lin Sheng was full of energy.

He voluntarily forgot the existence of time; his mind held nothing but devouring and helping Eighteen fulfill its last wish.

...

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Sheng shuddered.

Suddenly, a system notification rang in his ears.

[Ding]

[Host has met the Evolution conditions. Talent: Stellar Energy can now undergo Evolution. Please undergo Evolution within one day, otherwise the opportunity will be forfeited.]

This system notification pulled Lin Sheng out of his selfless state.

He looked around blankly, then subconsciously glanced at two pieces of information on his Data Panel.

Body Length: 9,680 meters

evolution points: 744 billion

Seeing his evolution points balance, Lin Sheng finally snapped out of it.

Thinking of the system's recent prompt, Lin Sheng quickly gave an order:

"System, begin Evolution."

[Ding]

[This Evolution will take 10 days. Please wait patiently, Host.]

After the system finished speaking, Lin Sheng's Evolution officially began.

Lin Sheng had already anticipated the outcome of this Evolution.

Currently, his "Stellar Energy" was "Natural Grade"; if it evolved, it should reach "Balance Grade."

"Natural Grade" Stellar Energy passively absorbed the energy emitted by a star.

If it reached "Balance Grade," it would most likely become the active absorption of energy emitted by a star.

Thinking of this, Lin Sheng felt a bit expectant.

"Natural Grade" Stellar Energy only allowed Lin Sheng to become a ten-thousand-meter solar panel.

But if it were "Balance Grade" Stellar Energy...

Lin Sheng felt he could become a more advanced solar panel.

Since this Evolution time was relatively short, Lin Sheng didn't choose to hibernate.

He planned to wander around South Pole Mountain to relax his mind after these tedious days.

...

Lin Sheng's consciousness flew out of his body; he wasn't sure if it was an illusion, but he felt his flight speed was slightly faster than before.

[Influence of the Cultivation Technique]

Just as Lin Sheng had this feeling, "Omniscience" surfaced a piece of information in his heart.

Lin Sheng was slightly surprised.

He hadn't expected a Cultivation Technique to still have an effect in this Great Universe.

He made a decision in his heart.

Whenever he had time in the future, he would run through this technique in his mind a few times.

After doing it many times, perhaps he could directly obtain the "golden immortal dao fruit."

Thinking this, as his consciousness flew, Lin Sheng began to continuously practice that Cultivation Technique in his mind.

Calling it cultivation, Lin Sheng was actually just recalling the contents of the technique in his mind.

...

[Ding]

[Friendly reminder: Host's Evolution is complete.]

While "cultivating" the technique, Lin Sheng once again entered a state of selflessness.

The sudden system notification brought Lin Sheng back to his senses.

Although these days of cultivation hadn't improved his Truth Level consciousness intensity at all, Lin Sheng still felt he had "benefited greatly."

[Psychological effect]

Lin Sheng was speechless.

With a thought, almost in the next instant, his consciousness returned to his body.

"System, open the Data Panel."

[Host: Lin Sheng

Body Length: 9,680 meters

evolution points: 744 billion

Talents: ...

Stellar Energy (Balance Grade): While passively absorbing Stellar Energy, you can also actively absorb the energy emitted by a star.

...]

Looking at the description of Stellar Energy, Lin Sheng thought to himself, "Just as I expected."

He looked up at the star hanging overhead.

After Stellar Energy evolved to "Balance Grade," the light emitted by the star also changed in Lin Sheng's eyes.

The change was wonderful; although the light was still colorless, as long as Lin Sheng wished, he could see the colorless light around him.

Lin Sheng opened his mouth and inhaled, and the surrounding light began to gather around him.

evolution points +24,814

With one breath, several tens of thousands of evolution points were added.

These evolution points were considered few for the current Lin Sheng.

But Lin Sheng wasn't disappointed.

Because he had just inhaled casually, without any effort.

This time, Lin Sheng inhaled forcefully, and the surrounding invisible light gathered around him one after another.

At this moment, Lin Sheng was like a black hole, with all the light around him converging into his mouth.

But because the speed of light was too fast, his surroundings did not become dark.
