Chapter 75: Transformation
I closed my eyes out of habit and focused my mind on my body.
During this decadent and relaxing time, Benjamin did not give up on cultivating the magic weapon, and his efforts were not in vain.
He could feel that the connection between Xinjian and his mind was becoming deeper and deeper, as if it had become the sixth limb of his body.
This feeling grew stronger and stronger, until just now, when Benjamin felt that perhaps it was time to make his first attempt.
So Benjamin couldn't wait to experience the core function of the Five Elements Rainbow Mirror: transforming into light and escaping.
He wanted to test what effect the Five Elements Transformation into Rainbow Mirror could achieve in the later stages of Qi training, as well as the limit of what he could endure.
Considering the extremely fast speed of the Five Elements Transformation into Rainbow Mirror, a simple laboratory training ground is no longer sufficient.
Benjamin left the academy again and flew for several days before choosing a nearby open mountain range as the testing site.
This place is far away from the town and rarely visited, so even if you make a surprising noise, it will not attract attention.
In a valley, Benjamin took a deep breath and calmed himself.
He concentrated his consciousness completely on the heart mirror in his dantian.
"Turn into light!" He silently gave the order in his heart.
In an instant, the heart mirror in the dantian suddenly burst out with a dazzling light.
The light did not spread outward, but converged instantly, turning from solid to virtual, and became an invisible force, gushing out from his dantian and instantly enveloping his entire body.
It's an indescribable and strange feeling.
His body seemed to have lost its physical reality at this moment, becoming extremely light, like pure light itself.
A layer of "light clothing" emitting colorful light covered his skin and merged with his body.
He could feel that this layer of light was composed of the five intertwined concepts of light within the heart mirror!
There was no pain or discomfort in the body, but rather a wonderful sense of liberation.
He seemed to have broken free from the constraints of his body and could rush in any direction at any time.
"Flee in the light!"
With another thought, he chose a protruding rock at the far end of the valley as his target.
There was no roar, no loud noise, not even the slightest sound of air tearing.
Benjamin felt his body suddenly burst out with golden-red light, and the surrounding scene became fragmented at this moment, as if it was chopped into countless pieces by a huge axe.
The sense of time is completely distorted, and space seems to be folded and compressed.
Everything before his eyes turned into blurry bands of light and blocks of color, and he could only barely catch some fragmentary images - the shadows of rapidly receding trees, the outlines of passing mountains, the brief flashes of vegetation on the ground... All of this overlapped and jumped in an illogical way, so fast that his eyes and brain were completely unable to handle it!
He felt that he was not "flying" but "teleporting".
He was not controlling the light, but briefly became the light!
Unable to sense the resistance of the air or the distance to the ground, Benjamin only knew that he was "rushing forward" at an unimaginable speed!
Jieming tried to control the direction and adjust the trajectory, but his body was completely out of control!
He is now like a driven arrow. Once shot, he can only move in a predetermined direction at an extreme speed!
How long did the light last?
Maybe one ten-thousandth of a second.
Maybe even shorter...
The distorted sense of time caused by the extreme high speed made it completely impossible for Benjamin to make any judgment.
There was no deceleration and no signs. I was still feeling the extreme speed the previous second, and the next second, a huge impact suddenly came!
The escaping light dissipated in an instant, and his body suddenly appeared on the physical plane, and then...
He felt like he had bumped into something hard!
Boom!
The huge force backfired, and his body groaned in pain.
He tried to stand firm, but his legs felt weak and his vision went dark.
It took Benjamin a long time to come back to his senses, and then he found that he had crashed into a huge rock!
Half of his body, from the waist down, was embedded in the solid rock.
He struggled to pull his arm free, holding onto the rock wall, gasping for breath.
In the Dantian, the true essence was like a drained riverbed, dried up to the extreme.
Just this moment of escape consumed all of his true energy from the late stage of Qi training!
His soul seemed to have undergone torture. He felt as if his soul was trembling, his brain was tired and tingling, and he was almost collapsing!
He struggled to pull his body out of the rock, and the pain made him growl in pain.
Fortunately, the magic weapon itself was given an extremely complete safety system when it was refined. After the light flight, the user will not carry the inertia during the flight.
The reason why Benjamin was embedded in the rock was simply because he failed to control his power the first time he used it. When he finally released the light, some of the remaining energy exploded and caused him to suffer backlash.
As long as you practice a few more times, this problem will not occur again.
Compared with the damage caused by the backlash of power, what is more terrifying is the brief feeling of emptiness after the escape is over.
At that moment, Benjamin felt as if his life force had been drained away, his limbs were out of control, and for at least a few breaths, he was unable to make any effective dodge or counterattack.
If this test was in front of the enemy, he would be like a piece of meat on the chopping board, at the mercy of others!
He climbed out of the rock with all his strength and fell to the ground, leaning against the rock that he had knocked out a human-shaped dent.
He is now so weak that it is difficult for him to even stand up.
The emptiness in my body, the weakening of my consciousness, the pain in my body, and that indescribable feeling of stiffness...
It was not until he had been on the ground for a long time that he came to his senses. Trembling, he reached into his clothes and took out a well-protected medicine bottle. After opening it, he poured the liquid into his mouth.
Feeling the cool feeling of the potion quickly recovering his physical injuries and mental strength, Benjamin finally had time to savor the feeling of turning into light just now.
Too fast!
Huaguang was flying so fast that before he could even fully understand what was happening, everything was over!
It was so fast that he completely lost control!
But... it's too powerful!
He was only in the late stage of Qi training, but with the help of the primary form of the magic weapon, he had achieved this level of escape speed!
He probed his consciousness into his dantian, and the Five Elements Transformation Rainbow Mirror became somewhat dim at this moment, and the light flowed extremely slowly. It was obvious that the consumption was also huge, and it would take time to recover.
He was breathing heavily, looking up in the direction he came from at the mountains whose shadows could no longer be seen, then he looked down at his own miserable state.
The fact that he couldn't see the mountains meant that he had flown at least a thousand miles away at that moment.
Or it was because his true energy was too little, and he could only maintain the state of light for a very short moment.
As long as he can maintain the light for a longer period of time, the distance he can fly can be increased exponentially.
