Within the radiance, the strange Neural Jellyfish finally stopped curling up and instead stretched its body out with abandon.
The long, slender neurons extending from either side unfurled like a pair of enormous wings. Twelve pairs of cranial nerves spread in all directions, sensing their surroundings like antennae, making him truly resemble a butterfly breaking out of its chrysalis.
A shimmering luster flowed across the neurons, dazzling in a riot of colors—light, dreamlike, mysterious, and transcendent.
For a moment, Old Six actually thought his new form looked rather good.
He was so excited he nearly roared, "We did it! We succeeded!"
From plunging into an abyss where neither sun nor sky could be seen, to breaking from the chrysalis and seeing hope again, he was so stirred that he could barely contain himself.
Shi Tiexin reminded him, "It isn't safe yet. Don't get carried away. Hurry and solidify the psychic veins!"
"Right, right, solidify the psychic veins." Old Six calmed down and hurriedly took this equally important step.
The solidification subjects had long been chosen.
Natural History for the main vein, Mathematics for one auxiliary vein, and Chemistry for the other.
Within the gleaming fluorescence, the three fresh psychic veins settled on their skill trees.
The next moment, the three skill trees flew into the holes of the lotus root, intertwining with the psychic veins that had long since made their home there. They blended together like milk and water, harmonious as one.
Thus, through the combined efforts of all six bodies, every one of the six major systems of Heart Arts now possessed one main vein and two auxiliary veins. The six systems of psychic veins were finally fully staffed.
At that moment, every aperture of the Seven Orifice Lotus Root except the empty central one brimmed with fullness.
