Li Yao held a handful of level-one transparent crystal cores in each hand and began to absorb them. As she absorbed them, she extended her consciousness outward. Gradually, she could see the fish and shrimp in the lake and the crabs in the crevices of the rocks. Her consciousness followed the fish as they swam and swam.
Until I felt a little dizzy and my vision went black, I lost consciousness.
When Li Yao regained consciousness, it was already the next morning. Fortunately, the carpet in the room was thick, and she was fine after lying down for a day.
She got up and stretched her stiff neck, then washed up while observing the changes in herself. She examined herself carefully several times, and finally found that there seemed to be no change.
Li Yao finished washing up somewhat speechlessly, drank a cup of spiritual spring water, and while thinking about what she should do today, she also thought about putting the cup back into the [Infinite Space] after drinking the spiritual spring water. However, before her hand could even touch the cup, it was put into the space.
She paused for a moment, then took out the cup again, focusing her attention on putting it into her spatial storage. This time, she put her hands behind her back, and sure enough, the cup was put into her spatial storage once more.
As she was lost in thought, the system spoke up, saying, "Host, this is the function of your mental power. Mental power in mental abilities is intention or consciousness, which is equivalent to a part of your body. Therefore, after you have mental abilities, you can store anything within the range of your mental power into your space without touching it."
Li Yao understood and wanted to try it. She walked into the living room, stood 3 meters away from the sofa, and used her mental power to touch the sofa cushion, thinking of putting it into the [Infinite Space]. Sure enough, the sofa cushion went into the space.
She was overjoyed and collected the TV remote, the dog's toy ball, and the decorations on the coffee table. Except for some particularly heavy items, such as the 10-kilogram crystal glass, which she couldn't collect because her superpower level was a bit too low, she could collect anything under 10 kilograms.
After playing for a while, Li Yao felt a little tired and had a headache. The system reminded her, "[Host, you have overused your superpower. Due to the transformation of your body by the spiritual spring water, your superpower is currently at level 2, initial stage. However, since it has only recently awakened, it is not yet stable. Host needs to practice more and absorb some crystal cores when you have time.]"
Li Yao was someone who listened to advice, so she immediately took out a bunch of crystal cores, holding a handful in each hand, and began to absorb them.
The crystal nucleus, the size of a grain of rice, was too small and contained little energy. After half an hour, Li Yao finally felt refreshed and stopped absorbing it. However, she discovered that her mental strength seemed to have advanced to the mid-level of level 2. It seemed that more practice and timely replenishment was a good way to level up.
The user experience of the mental power ability is acceptable. Li Yao plans to buy an ice-type ability and a fire-type ability so that she might not suffer too much in extremely hot or cold weather.
The system reminded you: "[Host, these two abilities are mutually exclusive and do not complement each other. If you insist on purchasing these two abilities, you need to immerse your entire body in the spiritual spring water and prepare one level-two ice-type and one fire-type ability crystal core, or at least a bunch of level-one crystal cores soaked in the spiritual spring water to assist you in awakening your abilities.]"
Li Yao felt that the preparations were easy, except that she needed to wait for the spiritual spring water. Her current spiritual spring water was a small stream, so she needed to wait two days to accumulate it.
Two more days passed, and Li Yao had collected enough spiritual spring water for a bathtub. She then selected one ice-type and one fire-type crystal core from the level-two crystal cores she had harvested, washed them clean, and soaked them in the spring water. Completely naked, she lay down in the bathtub, used her consciousness to purchase these two abilities, spending 10 million skill points, and clicked "Use."
When a tearing, excruciating pain swept over her entire body, Li Yao felt only pain. All her attention and willpower were focused on the pain, and she couldn't think of anything else. This pain was more intense than any skill she had ever experienced before. It was as if her body didn't belong to her. Extreme cold and a burning sensation like flames kept encroaching on her body.
She gripped the two crystal cores tightly, calming her mind as she absorbed their energy. The pain gradually subsided only as the sun set and the moon rose above the willow branches.
Li Yao felt weak all over. She teleported herself to the bed and then fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, Li Yao woke up with a start, only to find herself lying in bed. She asked the system, "[6834, what happened to me yesterday?]"
[Host, after you awakened your ice and fire abilities yesterday, you teleported to your bed and collapsed from exhaustion.]
Li Yao suddenly felt that she might be a bit weak. She had gained spatial power with the system and had been training for almost a year. Even with the support of ancient martial arts body-strengthening techniques, she still managed to faint from exhaustion.
Sensing the host's thoughts, the system quickly spoke up, saying, "Host, according to the conclusions drawn from the system's information searches, the awakening process for those with supernatural abilities generally takes 7-15 days. Those who awaken in 1-2 days like you are currently almost nonexistent."
Hearing this, Li Yao's confidence returned. She could do it again. It seemed that her ancient martial arts training and the spiritual spring water she drank had not been in vain.
