This perspective... is like looking down at your own body from a spiritual perspective.

You Huan's body was no longer made of flesh and blood. Looking around, all he could see were dots of starlight, and the light gathered into lines, stretching out and forming the shape of a body.

All that can be seen are his nerves - or his consciousness signals.

They flow through the network of nerve cells and flash on every tiny cell receptor.

And in the signal light, you can also see sparks of light, sometimes bright, sometimes dim, breathing regularly.

At this moment, a spiritual signal came from outside this field of vision. It was the voice of the elder:

[From this perspective, you can see "everything" about the spirit, and try to use your will to guide them to change.

I need you to improve the structure of the "net", complicate its functions, and spread its tentacles...】

After hearing its words, You Huan focused his attention on several of the thickest "trunks" of the nervous system.

A pulling force that was difficult to describe in words came, as if his consciousness was about to throw itself into it and merge into the pipe through which the signal flowed.

Is this a method of...dispersing the mind throughout the body?
He saw the subtlety of this method: it was equivalent to combining body and soul into one, which could both strengthen the latter and evolve the former more quickly and accurately.

But it obviously also has two disadvantages.

First, not all creatures can do this, but it requires specific innate talents.

If the elders had not led him into the door, he might never have been able to enter this field of vision by groping on his own.

Secondly, once the spirit is fixed in the body, it can no longer pass through it as easily as before, and if the body is destroyed, the spirit has no chance of surviving.

Unlike the enemies he had encountered several times before, even if their bodies were destroyed by him, their spirits could still temporarily remain in the world and even have the opportunity to condense into a new body.

In addition, there is a third disadvantage for him——

He needs spiritual power to control the shadows of different monsters separately.

Once the spirit is completely integrated into this body, I am afraid that the ability to control the monster's shadow will be directly scrapped.

But there is a solution to this problem, which is to integrate only part of the spiritual power.

As for the first two shortcomings, the first one was led by the elders, and the second one would collapse on its own if only part of the spirit was integrated.

Now that he had a perfect solution, he decided to give it a try without any hesitation and directly separated a part of his spiritual power.

"hold head high!"

A roar was heard in the spiritual world. The sound was very strange. Listening carefully, it seemed as if there were multiple echoes in it, including the majestic roar of a dragon and more brutal and strange roars.

Along with the roar comes a torrent of spirit that pours down from the spiritual heights!

In the blink of an eye, a silent vortex seemed to appear in the body below, quickly engulfing the spiritual power, and everything returned to silence -

You Huan's vision returned to the ordinary world.

He saw the water surging, and the skulls and herbs stored in the elders' lair swaying with the waves.

Seeing him come back to his senses so quickly, the elder was stunned for a moment, and then asked: [How do you feel? ]

You Huan answered truthfully: [The guidance has already begun, but it will take time. ]

【So fast? 】

The elder stretched out his tentacles and hovered them above You Huan, sensing him.

This feeling surprised it: [Your will is complete, and you have completed the preparation for fusion and guidance. There is no gap? ]

[Is that so?] To be honest, You Huan was not as good as the elder in terms of detailed spiritual observation, so he was not sure either.

[……] The elder was silent for a moment, for he was greatly shocked.

According to its original expectation, it would be great if this "apprentice" could eventually complete 40% of the fusion, which is half of its own effect.

But 100%… not even itself can do it.

Could it be that the apprentice’s body is smaller, so the “willpower” required will be less?
That's not right. Even if we calculate it based on the body proportion, the apprentice is so young, and it shouldn't be enough to complete 100% fusion in terms of quantity or quality!
It has evolved for so many years, and has been constantly training at the level of "will" - which is the "spirit" as understood by You Huan - but the quality of will it has obtained can only achieve 80% of the fusion.

After thinking for a long time, the elder, who was full of doubts, could only come to one conclusion: this apprentice is gifted. The elder calmly suppressed his envy of the apprentice and said in a calm voice: [Not bad.]

You Huan did not hear anything unusual in the elder's spiritual message, so he asked sincerely: [What are those spark-like things in my spiritual vision?]

[Sparks... a good metaphor.] He had forgotten that marine life might not recognize the concept of "fire", but the elder obviously had some knowledge and responded, [That is, "electricity."]

It turned out to be a bioelectric signal.

You Huan nodded in understanding.

The elder added: [“Electricity” is very important. We can enhance and expand the power of electricity. We can use electricity to replace matter and control our bodies quickly without worrying about damage.]

After saying that, as if worried that the apprentice wouldn't understand, it stretched out a part of its tentacle, slapped it hard, and flattened another tentacle!

The tentacles were smashed into a pulp in an instant.

Logically speaking, a body like this is no longer controllable.

But under You Huan's gaze, the mushy tentacles were lifted up and moved freely as if nothing had happened!

He probably understood.

What the elder meant was to digitize the nervous system so that the end parts of the body could be controlled without the need for physical nerve cells.

There is no need to set up too many nerve pathways in the densely packed tentacles.

But You Huan saw more.

Electric current... With this technique, could he develop the ability to discharge electricity?

Generally speaking, bioelectricity is very weak.

Except for a few animals such as electric eels, bioelectricity is not enough to cause harm, but this is the ocean, and everything is possible.

He looked down at his tentacles, suddenly opened his mouth, and bit off a small piece of the tentacle.

【?】The elder only had time to ask a question before he saw the broken tentacle gently twisting in the sea water.

Its tentacles, which had special sensory tissue, immediately sensed the tiny electric current radiating from You Huan and accurately injected it into the broken tentacle, thereby controlling the movement of its cells.

No, it's done now? It's learned now?
For a moment, the elder wanted to explode all the tentacles, but he held back.

The apprentice asked innocently: [Is that so? ]

[Yes... that's it.] The elder sent out a calm spiritual message.

You Huan looked at the elder and felt that the elder's posture was inexplicably tense.

He didn't care and continued to control the broken tentacle, directing it to sometimes bend into a "." and sometimes into a "?".

After a while, the tentacle's cell activity weakened and he lost control.

For him, this little trick was really not difficult at all.

Not to mention that only a very small part of his spiritual power was integrated into his body, the rest could be easily mobilized as a supplementary means.

He used to be a monster that could use electricity. Not only could he use electricity, he could also use a gravitational chain.

This little bit of current control was nothing but a piece of cake in his eyes.

However, it will take a long evolutionary process to truly realize the electrification of the nervous system.

To develop the ability to discharge electricity, he needs to explore it carefully.

[That's all for today.] The elder's words interrupted his thoughts, and it waved its tentacles, [You still need a lot of practice. Come back to me after you have fully learned everything I taught you.]

Before You Huan could say anything, he was sent out of the cave by the elder's tentacles.

He floated outside the cave, feeling a little dazed.

I always feel like the elders are in a hurry to send him away...

In the cave, the elder curled up all his tentacles, rolled into a ball, and began to think about his life as an animal. (End of this chapter)
