Chapter 171: Three Transformations, Thunder Breath, Super Electromagnetic Cannon
“Boom… roar…”
The thunder kept rumbling as violent electricity surged through Mu Lin’s Body of a Dragon.
Such terrifying energy could crush mountains and melt steel.
Even his draconic physique barely endured the relentless strikes.
Thankfully, the Sky-High Technique Spell · Power of Zi Wei’s high rank allowed Mu Lin to control the currents, minimizing bodily harm.
Meanwhile, his body absorbed the life-giving essence from the Bolts of Lightning like a sponge during this bombardment.
“Buzz…”
This intense absorption soon filled Mu Lin to bursting.
After several minutes, his energy reached maximum capacity.
“Crack…”
This saturation triggered his third molting evolution.
From one comes two, from two comes three, from three comes all things… The mystical number three granted Mu Lin a new trait during this transformation.
To his surprise, the Thunder Breath ability caused changes not just externally – his inside the body underwent drastic alterations too.
A thunder-charged organ materialized beside his heart.
“Thud… thud… thud…”
“Boom… roar…”
This Heart of Thunder immediately revealed its marvel – devouring wild electricity to condense into special energy fluid stored within him.
Mu Lin sensed this reserve could convert back into lightning for projectile attacks when needed.
Second Heart · Heart of Thunder.
This new organ came with Thunder Breath as its secondary trait after the third molting.
The evolution also plunged Mu Lin into enlightenment, revealing Thunder Breath’s alternate usage and foreshadowing his sixth molting power.
Super Limit · Thunder Explosion, or Thunder God Descent.
Similar to giant beasts’ Red Lotus Mode but crucially different – where Godzilla’s nuclear meltdown caused uncontrolled burning, Mu Lin’s technique remained controllable.
By fully unleashing the Heart of Thunder’s stored power of thunder through specific methods, Mu Lin could channel this energy internally instead of expelling it.
The electricity would course through his muscles, bones, and nerves, forcing his body into a limit-breaking state.
This thunderous overload boosted his strength and speed exponentially while making lightning erupt from his entire form – a living thunder deity.
However, this overload mode exerted catastrophic strain, requiring sixth-stage molting for safe mastery.
“Power!”
Though Super Limit · Thunder Explosion awaited future development, Mu Lin’s enlightenment also unveiled Thunder Breath’s hidden application.
This method was also related to some scientific knowledge and inspiration from his past life.
"Thunder Breath is an energy attack with decent power, but it’s easily absorbed or blocked by certain spells… Energy absorption and thunder-resistant spells or artifacts aren’t rare in this world."
"I should develop a physical strike mode… Got it! As energy, thunder can not only hit enemies directly but also propel objects… Electromagnetic propulsion… Super Electromagnetic Cannon!"
After contemplation, Mu Lin relied on his extraordinary imagination, past life’s electrical knowledge, and hundredfold mental enhancement from enlightenment to develop a new feature for his Thunder Breath – the Super Electromagnetic Cannon.
While regular Thunder Breath simply shot lightning, the Super Electromagnetic Cannon transformed its energy into electric propulsion, launching metal projectiles for devastating kinetic impact.
"Energy conversion to kinetic force – perfect… Though needing metal bullets each time is troublesome…"
"Wait – my Mind Image world can project metal bullets… No, since we’re here, ordinary bullets won’t do. I need magic artifacts."
The lingering effects of enlightenment kept Mu Lin’s mind racing. Within moments, he devised multiple ways to enhance the cannon’s power.
Leaping from the Radiance of Thunder Pool, he immediately instructed Yan Yunyu:
"Do you know any conical-shaped premium magic items with armor-piercing, spell-breaking, spiritual-defense-shattering capabilities? Preferably extremely durable ones."
"Armor-piercing, spell-breaking, conical…"
Though curious, the intelligent Yan Yunyu didn’t question him and quickly pondered. Impressively, despite specific requirements, she produced a perfect answer.
"Vajra Pestle!"
"Mu brother, this conical artifact is incredibly sturdy. It can be engraved with armor-piercing and spiritual-defense-breaking runes – exactly what you need."
Mu Lin: "That’s it. Can you find me a premium magic item version to study?"
"Of course. I’ll handle it immediately."
Mu Lin smiled appreciatively: "Thanks again. You’ve been tremendously helpful lately – I’ll speed up those doppelganger puppets for you."
"Never any trouble. I’ll do anything for Mu brother. Besides, you’ve helped me far more…"
After receiving instructions, Yan Yunyu swiftly began searching for the premium magic item. Meanwhile, Mu Lin examined his bodily changes.
Beyond gaining new abilities, this molting enhanced his physical strength by ninety percent – his greatest improvement yet. Repeated moltings had cumulatively boosted his physique beyond ordinary human limits.
Among the Three Treasures of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, his physical strength now surpassed his magic energy, reaching Spirit Pool level. His Body of a Dragon made him three times stronger than same-level humans.
"Perfect…"
However, molting brought issues – his rejuvenated appearance made him look younger. Thankfully, dragon shape-shifting abilities let him adjust his size to appear more mature.
Another problem emerged: each molting required exponentially more energy. While his third molting needed three spiritual meals and stimulation at eighty-one Radiance of Thunder Pool locations, the fourth would require nine meals and ninety-nine-meter depth.
"Sigh… Completing nine dragon transformations here? Wishful thinking. Six will be hard enough!"
"True dragon ascension isn’t easy…"
Using the Time Tower, Mu Lin achieved three transformations before the Southeast League Examination. As examinees gathered in Yuzhou City, ripples of impending turmoil began spreading through the streets.
