After devouring Zhang Jiao, Hyuga Sho shot away at extreme speed, heading into the distance.
"This time... the harvest was quite bountiful..."
Gazing at the scenery in his field of vision as it rapidly receded behind him, Hyuga Sho nodded in satisfaction.
If...
Shou Yunxiao, Sha Wusheng, Mie Tianhai, and Rin Setsu'a, the four "Wulin" personalities, had merely been a first step in his experiments,
then...
Zhang Jiao and the others, who belonged to the "Xuanhuan" personalities, were the nourishment that could truly allow him to grow stronger at extreme speed.
After devouring Zhang Jiao,
Hyuga Sho obtained Zhang Jiao's Purple Lightning.
Naturally, he also obtained all of Zhang Jiao's other techniques.
Setting aside his large-scale control over lightning,
one of Zhang Jiao's abilities was especially useful.
"Levitation."
Relying on the electromagnetic force created by Lightning Release, he could launch himself into the air.
Zhang Jiao could treat himself like an electromagnetic cannon and fire himself away.
Of course,
Zhang Jiao would never do that.
Because it would tear his body apart.
Thus, Zhang Jiao could only maintain a certain rate of ascent or descent.
But Hyuga Sho's original body was different.
Hyuga Sho's original body possessed extremely sturdy defenses.
Under these circumstances,
Hyuga Sho could use electromagnetic force together with Magnetic Release: Star Point.
With the two combined, he could stand in the sky!
He could truly ascend to the heavens, and even break through the atmosphere and enter outer space!!
The act of walking through the universe that Kamimusubi had described would no longer be mere words. It could truly become a reality.
Perhaps one day,
Hyuga Sho would consider flying to the moon
to investigate the affairs of the Otsutsuki Main Family.
But... the time was not right yet.
Hyuga Sho still had many things to do...
