Background

Origin Power first appears as a numerical field on the Crimson Modifier interface. Yan Kui initially receives no response when asking how to obtain it, treating the modifier as a rigid tool until its acquisition prompt appears 1.

It becomes the foundation of Yan Kui's extreme body-cultivation path. Rather than relying on ordinary training time, he converts life essence and high-energy materials into immediate technique upgrades, limit breaks, and large-scale technique fusions 3 32 49.

Abilities & Functions

Life Essence Conversion

Origin Power can be gained by killing living beings or supernatural entities and plundering their life essence.

• A Mortal Grade Mutation Walking Corpse yields 0.3 Origin Power 11.
• Wang Mazi yields 0.5 Origin Power 4.
• Zhao Wuji, a Half-step Foundation Establishment Corpse Demon, yields 7.5 Origin Power 17.
• Chen Bantian, a Half-step Innate martial artist, yields 8.0 Origin Power 34.
• A Qi Cultivation Stage Spirit Snake yields 2.0 Origin Power 39.
• Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivators yield 15.0 to 17.0 Origin Power each 47.

High-Energy Item Consumption

The Crimson Modifier can convert suitable items directly into Origin Power.

• Corpse Origin Stone: +3.0 15.
• Yin Soul Grass: +0.5 per stalk 15.
• Second Turn Corpse Pill: +8.0 17.
• Thunder Tiger Leg Bone: +2.5 29.
• Ink Flood Dragon Essence Blood: +5.5 29.

Technique Enhancement

Origin Power can instantly improve recorded martial arts and cultivation methods, providing the experience and bodily transformation associated with long-term training.

• It raises Raging Bull Fist from Novice to Minor Accomplishment for 0.2 Origin Power and to Major Accomplishment for 2.0 3.
• It initiates and advances Savage Boar Ramming Technique through Great Accomplishment for a total of 7.0 Origin Power 22.
• It can cultivate movement arts such as Spirit Snake Steps, including a 3.0-Origin-Power initial cultivation cost and a 5.0-Origin-Power advancement to Minor Accomplishment 39 40.

Limit Breaking and Fusion

After a technique reaches its upper stage, Origin Power can force a limit break or merge multiple techniques into a superior art.

• Breaking Raging Bull Fist's limit costs 5.0 Origin Power and grants Brute Bull Strength and Savage Charge 15.
• Fusing five hard-body techniques with the Heaven Shaking Sect bone fragment costs an estimated 50.0 Origin Power and produces Crimson Extreme Golden Body 32.
• An initial fusion can stall when Origin Power reaches zero; Yan Kui completes his second-stage fusion only after acquiring more power from a slain cultivator 42.
• The Heaven Shaking God-Demon Record · Third Layer Fragment requires 20.0 Origin Power for Novice, 36.0 for Minor Accomplishment, and 50.0 for Major Accomplishment 49.

Detection

The Crimson Modifier identifies high-energy objects and can display their potential Origin Power yield.

• It detects the Corpse Origin Stone in Zhao Family's treasure vault and identifies its 3.0-Origin-Power value 15.
• It identifies the Heaven Shaking Sect bone fragment as a high-dimensional energy carrier suitable for technique fusion 29 32.
• Yan Kui uses this detection ability to locate valuable materials in Tianwu City's Black Market 28.

Essence Plunder

Unlocked after Lei Ao's death, Essence Plunder analyzes high-level creature corpses and extracts bloodline essence or talent traits.

• Extracted essence may be converted into Origin Power or grant the host corresponding traits or resistances 27.
• Lei Ao's Thunder Rhinoceros Bloodline Essence is plundered and devoured after the function activates 27.
• Ink Flood Dragon Essence Blood grants Yan Kui the Corrosion trait while also providing Origin Power 29.

Limitations

• Origin Power must be acquired before the Modifier can perform upgrades or fusions; Yan Kui begins with none 1.
• Enhancements consume the stored reserve immediately, potentially leaving Yan Kui with little or no remaining power 3 9.
• Major fusion processes can fail to complete when the reserve is insufficient, as seen when the Crimson Extreme Golden Body fusion stalls at 85% 42.
• The Modifier does not provide independent guidance beyond its prompts and functions 1.

Relationships

• Yan Kui — Primary host and user. He treats Origin Power as the essential resource for survival, physical cultivation, and acquiring power through battle 1 25.
• Crimson Modifier — Origin Power is the Modifier's central enhancement resource, funding upgrades, detection, essence extraction, limit breaks, and technique fusion 1 27 32.
• Life essence and high-energy materials — Its two documented sources; cultivators and powerful supernatural beings generally provide far greater returns than ordinary mortals 1 17 47.
