Through [Inner Vision], Chen Jue observed the electrical energy his fingertips absorbed. Upon meeting his body, the current flowing out of the socket actually transformed on its own into ionized "plasma."
The current flowing through these wires was, after all, the result of electrons moving in a directed manner through a conductor, and its sources were various types of power plants in different places.
From thermal power to wind power, hydropower, nuclear power, and so on, differences in each region's environment and resources determined what kinds of power plants were built there.
An County lay along the coast of Jiang Province and had no large hydroelectric power stations. Household electricity primarily came from conventional thermal and nuclear power, with a small portion supplied by wind power.
Thermal power accounted for the largest share, at around 50%.
The principle behind conventional thermal power generation was simple: burn thermal coal, then use the heat from combustion to heat water, turning it into steam to drive generators. This was commonly known as "boiling water to generate electricity."
Current nuclear power plants also used this same principle to generate electricity, but the losses were substantial, consuming considerable environmental resources.
After achieving "shatter the vacuum," Chen Jue had opened up the 99% of unusable space within his body. Essentially, he could absorb different types of energy and then convert them into "plasma."
The Martial Dao Gang Qi he had cultivated before, for instance, had long since been assimilated after his breakthrough, merging completely into the "plasma."
However, he had only just broken through and had yet to master the direct absorption of more advanced forms of basic energy, such as light and heat.
He could only settle for the next best option, absorbing the "electrical energy" common in everyday life to try his hand at
