On the second day, before dawn,
In the innermost private room of a dilapidated shop in the ruins of Stone City.
Lin Xuankong, seated cross-legged on the sofa, slowly opened his eyes, then lowered his gaze to his right hand resting on his knee.
Before cultivating last night, his palm had been holding the Source Stone Crystal of the Predator Giant Python. Now, there was nothing there. All the source energy within that Predator-level Source Stone Crystal had been absorbed by Lin Xuankong.
The source energy contained within a Predator-level Source Stone Crystal was not only vast in quantity, dozens of times greater than that of an ordinary Source Stone Crystal, but also far purer. Its energy structure was completely different from the source energy in ordinary source crystals!
The difference was like the loose carbon structure in ordinary charcoal compared to the carbon structure in diamond! Though it was the same substance and the same energy, a difference in structure created a difference as vast as heaven and earth!
Having absorbed the Source Energy Crystal of the Predator Giant Python, Lin Xuankong could now clearly sense a tiny diamond-shaped crystal at the location of his pineal gland within his cranial cavity!
Under the influence of the Elemental Origin Technique Basic Skill that Lin Xuankong was circulating, the special source energy absorbed from the Predator Giant Python's Source Stone Crystal not only altered the structure of every strand of flesh, every bone, every hair, and every patch of skin on his body, but nearly half of it had also condensed within his cranial cavity, forming that tiny diamond-shaped crystal!
After carefully sensing the various changes in his flesh, bones, skin, and hair,
Lin Xuankong rose to his full height and walked to a mirror nearby, studying himself closely.
