The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 215: Uncovering the [Evolution] Ability

That night, after Liang Yuan had his fill with Yang Mei, he went to the study to study the talisman technology.

Under the desk lamp, Liang Yuan placed three talisman stones of different sizes on the table.

Under the light, several runes bloomed with different colors.

The arrow rune of the explosive arrow has a fiery red luster and a faint red light.

The turtle shield talisman stone was white in color, with a faint, almost undetectable light.

This is an attributeless supernatural stone, and it contains little energy.

But the last rune stone emitted a faint blue light.

The blue light has a watery glow, restrained and soft.

This is exactly the other kind of talisman stone that Liang Yuan obtained from Wu Meng.

Water-repellent talisman!

"The military revealed three types of runes: the blasting rune, the earth defense rune, and the water repellent rune in front of us."

"I can't find the corresponding rune for the Earth Defense Talisman for now, so I can't make a rune stone. But the water-repellent rune stone that Wu Meng gave me may be worth studying carefully, and maybe I can restore it."

He picked up the water-repellent stone, which was the size of a fist and had complex wavy patterns engraved on it.

Liang Yuan took a basin of water, then held the talisman in his hand and activated the water-repellent talisman.

In an instant, the water-repellent talisman stone glowed, and an invisible wave appeared all around.

Liang Yuan's keen mental power sensed this transparent wave, which enveloped him.

He tried to press the fist holding the rune stone into the water.

A magical scene immediately appeared.

However, the basin of water, which was as smooth as a mirror, was suddenly repelled by an invisible wave and sank downwards.

The water levels on both sides rose. Liang Yuan held the water-repellent talisman stone in his fist and pressed it into the basin, but no water got on his hands.

All the water automatically avoided his palm, about five centimeters away.

Liang Yuan was amazed: "This water-repellent talisman is really magical. I don't know what kind of creature evolved it."

"A creature with this ability can move freely in the water, right?"

Liang Yuan's mind was slightly moved: "Wait, since Wu Meng and the others can find this water-avoiding talisman in Yangshan, there must be a mutant beast that can avoid water in Yangshan!"

"I'll have to ask the other party what this mutant beast is and where I can hunt it when I get a chance."

Liang Yuan raised his hand, and the water surface immediately returned to its original state. As he stopped activating the talisman stone, the light on the water-avoiding talisman dissipated.

Liang Yuan began to study the water-repellent runes on the rune stone.

He already had quite a bit of experience in rune research, after all, he had already mastered the Spirit Turtle Shield rune technique.

However, as he continued to use his mental power to draw and condense the water-repellent talisman, he gradually discovered something was wrong.

"No, this is not right. Why do I feel that something is wrong with the rune every time I concentrate it halfway?"

Liang Yuan tried to condense runes hundreds of times, but each time his mental strength suddenly collapsed halfway through the experiment, and it seemed that he was unable to condense a water-repellent rune at all.

Liang Yuan frowned, somewhat puzzled.

He even suspected that his mental strength was declining.

He immediately took out an attributeless power stone and made a turtle shield talisman stone on the spot.

The whole process went smoothly and there were no problems at all!
"It's not a problem with my mental strength!"

"Is it the problem with this rune?"

Liang Yuan frowned and gradually realized the problem.

The water-repellent talisman on the talisman stone in front of him was a finished product. The runes on it were complicated, and he couldn't tell which stroke was the first and which was the end.

Originally he thought the order didn't matter, but it seems he took it for granted.

Because he picked a stroke at random and started to concentrate his mental energy, and then he failed.

"Does the rune technique have to strictly follow the order of the rune lines? Without knowing the order of the lines, it is useless to copy them randomly?"

Liang Yuan frowned and had a guess.

His mind raced, and he immediately came up with a way to verify his idea.

He quickly gathered his mental strength and then re-condensed the Spirit Turtle Cover rune.

This time, he did not condense according to the order in which the runes on the tortoise shell had lit up, but instead randomly picked a line at the corner of the rune and started to condense.

As expected, after only half of being condensed, the mental power immediately collapsed and dissipated, and it was impossible to condense the Spirit Turtle Cover Rune.

At this moment, Liang Yuan suddenly understood.

"So, these runes cannot be condensed randomly. They must be drawn strictly according to the original rune pattern sequence."

Liang Yuan suddenly realized that the tortoise shell he had obtained had the Spirit Turtle Shield rune recorded on it.

Every time he activated the Turtle Shield rune on the tortoise shell, the rune did not light up all at once, but instead lit up in sequence according to the arrangement of the patterns.

He didn't think much about it at the time and just learned the runes in the order they lit up.

Nowadays, runes are made into rune stones. Once activated, the entire rune is activated, rather than the lines lighting up one by one.

In other words, these runes have a natural anti-theft function!
Only by obtaining the real rune body can you draw and condense it according to the patterns that light up on it.

Liang Yuan smiled bitterly: "No wonder Ji Feng and Wu Meng would trade this rune with me. Obviously, they must know the runes on these rune stones and will not easily reveal them, so they are so confident in the transaction."

Liang Yuan sighed, shook his head slightly, and put away the talisman stones.

"It seems that if I want to learn more rune techniques, I still have to find a way to get the original runes first."

He took out the green skill bead again and began to deduce the green quality skills on it.

However, green-quality skills have high requirements for mental attributes. Even though his mental attributes have now exceeded 33.3, he still cannot completely condense this rune.

Liang Yuan guessed that perhaps the green rune required the mental power to break through 35 points.

"I'm still 2 points away. I'll draw another wave of rewards. If I'm lucky, I should be able to break through 35 points in my spiritual attribute."

"However, improving rune skills is only one aspect. If you want to improve your strength, you can also learn from Wu Meng and tap into your own potential."

"I have always neglected my abilities because of the existence of the system. This is really wrong."

Liang Yuan stood up, walked to the bedroom, and said hello to Yang Mei: "Sister Mei, I'm going to go out for a while, please lock the stone door."

Yang Mei suddenly woke up from her sleep and asked quickly, "Where are you going, little brother?"

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "I won't go too far. I'll just go to the waterfall not far away."

Yangmei wondered, "What are you doing at the waterfall so late at night?"

As she spoke, she sat up with great effort, put on a piece of clothing, and said, "Why don't I go with you?"

Liang Yuan pushed her back and said with a smile: "I'm going to train, what are you going to do? Have a good rest. Your performance tonight was not very good."

Yang Mei's fair face turned red and she slapped him: "You are annoying!"

"Okay, stop making trouble. I'm going."

"Come back soon."

Liang Yuan waved his hand and walked out of the cave.

It was raining heavily outside and it wouldn't stop.

Everyone in the bamboo house returned to the cave early and did not come out for activities.

After all, I've been busy all day, and it's raining heavily outside, so there's nothing to do.

Liang Yuan leaped onto the rock, then jumped again. The wind was whistling, his heart was pounding, his supernatural powers were activated, his latissimus dorsi muscles instantly swelled up, turning into huge bat wings, gliding away.

After landing lightly on the ground, he leaped again and flew between the rocks.

Soon, they arrived in front of a waterfall.

The heavy rain gathered into streams and condensed into torrents, rumbling down the mountain wall and forming a deep pool of water in the depression of the rocks below.

Liang Yuan stared at the waterfall: "Evolutionary ability, although it is a passive ability, will be activated when encountering danger, and then let my body evolve accordingly to resist the crisis."

"But I don't really need to wait for a crisis to come to me before my evolutionary ability can take effect."

"Just like I have practiced carving runes thousands of times, my evolutionary ability will also allow me to quickly adapt to carving, changing my wrist strength, finger strength, and so on."

"In that case, why don't I take the initiative to find a place with low danger, and then repeatedly train my body so that my body can quickly evolve into the corresponding physique?"

Liang Yuan looked at the waterfall, his mouth slightly curled up: "Under such a strong impact of the waterfall, if I practice strength and defense under this impact for a long time, and evolve my superpowers, what kind of abilities will I evolve?"

He took off his clothes, leaving only his shorts on, then suddenly jumped and jumped directly into the pool.

With a bang, water splashed up and he swam towards the waterfall that was cascading down.

As soon as he stood under the waterfall, the terrifying impact of the waterfall hit his head suddenly. Liang Yuan was caught off guard and immediately fell headfirst into the water.

If it weren't for his strong mental strength, he would probably have fainted on the spot!
Liang Yuan drank a few sips of water, cursed inwardly, but still climbed up stubbornly and rushed into the waterfall.

Then he protected his head with both hands and lay down on a stone slab, letting the horrible waterfall rumble towards his body. Under the huge impact force, Liang Yuan felt as if thousands of kilograms were hitting his body.

Even though his physical strength was as high as 21.8, his skin turned red, his bones crackled, his lungs vibrated, and blood spurted out on the spot due to the impact of the water.

Liang Yuan gritted his teeth and did not retreat. Unable to bear the pain in his chest and abdomen, he immediately turned over, allowing his back to bear the huge impact force.

Time passed little by little, and in just two minutes, Liang Yuan could no longer bear it. Suddenly, his hands and feet could no longer support him, and he was swept away by the waterfall. In an instant, he slid off the stone slab and fell into the pool.

His body sank into the pool, his bones and lungs ached, and his skin and muscles had extensive damage.

Liang Yuan felt like he couldn't move at all, his heart was pounding, and supernatural energy was sweeping through his body.

His physical injuries were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye!
“It’s working!”

Liang Yuan couldn't help but feel happy, his evolutionary ability really started to work.

"Did it evolve the ability to heal itself?"

Liang Yuan felt his skin tingling and itchy, and his internal organs seemed to be crawling with ants.

He knew that this was the wound healing.

"The speed of self-healing is not as fast as Wu Meng's flesh and blood growth, but it is almost as fast as Song Wen's self-healing speed."

Five minutes later, Liang Yuan's injuries were mostly healed.

He did not get up at this moment and immediately continued this suicidal training.

At this moment, he sank to the bottom of the water, driven by the surging undercurrent, and crashed between two rocks.

Liang Yuan opened his eyes, and the evolved eye membrane protected his eyeballs, allowing him to see the flow clearly.

"This undercurrent seems to be hidden deep under the water and silent, but its impact is so huge. If it weren't for these two rocks, I would have been swept away long ago."

Liang Yuan suddenly thought of Wu Meng's way of punching.

"Wu Meng's strength value has increased a lot after his flesh and blood increased, but what really allows him to punch with such terrifying power is the way he uses his strength."

"I obviously have more power than him, but my power is loose and collapses at the first touch. In the final analysis, it's because I don't know how to use the power."

Liang Yuan turned over and crawled out from the stone.

[Evolution] Driven by supernatural powers, it then evolved gills that could breathe.

Liang Yuan stood at the bottom of the water, carefully feeling the way the undercurrent was surging.

His mind was moved: "If these flowing waters are regarded as the blood in the body, then what are the undercurrents?"

"The new power born from the blood?"

“Where do these undercurrents come from?”

Liang Yuan's thoughts turned, and he immediately felt the source of this undercurrent and quickly went upstream.

Soon, he saw the source.

It's a waterfall!

No, to be precise, after the waterfall falls, its powerful force hits the rocks on the shore, causing the waterfall to split into different rapids, which are hidden in the deep water and become undercurrents.

Liang Yuan watched the scene quietly, his thoughts turning and putting himself into his own body.

"The heart is the waterfall, the source of qi and blood. What are those stones? Are they the tendons in the body?"

"No, not exactly!"

"To be precise, these stones are actually the key to changing the direction of water flow."

"Qi and blood burst out from the heart, and strength comes from muscles and bones. Is it possible to condense the qi and blood and make them burst out and collide in the muscles and bones to form new strength?"

"Countless forces converge to form explosive power?"

"It's just like this torrential rain. Each raindrop has little power, but when it gathers together in the mountains and rivers, it condenses into a waterfall, naturally forming a huge force that can destroy everything in its path!"

Liang Yuan understood immediately and started practicing boxing in the waterfall.

However, knowing the truth is that with a wave of the hand, one can subdue the Qi and blood and make it flow according to one's own will is another matter.

Liang Yuan punched several times, but he had no way of controlling the gathering of Qi and blood in his body.

He couldn't help but frown: "How can I control the circulation of qi and blood?"

"Logically speaking, Qi and blood are also part of my body. Why can I control my arms and fingers but not my Qi and blood?"

His thoughts raced, and he suddenly remembered a patient with cerebral infarction whom he had seen in the community.

He once chatted with patients with cerebral infarction and learned that cerebral infarction is actually necrosis of brain nerves, which leads to inability to control hands and feet and causes disability.

"So it's a problem with the brain nerves? If the nerves are strong enough, can they control the blood and qi in the body and any organ?"

"From the limbs to the hair, qi and blood."

Liang Yuan's heart moved slightly, and he had a direction. Mental power was his strong point!

He closed his eyes and released his mental power. This time it did not expand far away, but instead looked into his body.

Suddenly, a large amount of muscle tissue appeared vaguely in his mind.

Liang Yuan frowned. With his mental power, he couldn't see clearly what was going on inside his body.

“Is the human body too dense?”

He was at a loss for a moment, and this direction didn't seem to work.

"Wait a minute, I still have skill beads!"

Suddenly Liang Yuan reacted and realized that he still had a spiritual skill bead in his hand!

The key point is that the mental skill bead seems to be some kind of skill related to neural networks!
He immediately took out the skill bead and placed it on his forehead.

In an instant, the skill bead was activated, and a large number of neural network-like patterns spread out.

Liang Yuan injected his mental power into it, and then felt his mental power become refreshed and refined. He once again permeated his body with the mental power.

In an instant, a magical feeling came over me.

The various neural networks in his body are clearly visible, and he even feels that he can control any part of his body just by thinking about it!
"This feeling... is similar to the ability of the big-headed monster!"

Liang Yuan was delighted, because the big-headed monster could control the human body at will, just like playing with a toy.

That kind of control over the enemy's body is just like the control I have over my own body now!
"What a magical ability! In this way, can I monitor the flow of my blood and energy at any time?"

Liang Yuan was overjoyed and started punching immediately.

Under the monitoring of the skill bead, he could clearly feel how the qi and blood flowed in his body and how his muscles changed when he punched.

He immediately used his powerful mental strength to forcibly gather his qi and blood, mobilize his muscles and tendons, and adjust the way he burst out his strength.

bang bang bang...

Liang Yuan punched repeatedly, one punch after another, and kept adjusting.

Once, ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times!

Finally, after he punched thousands of times, the breaking fist wind suddenly changed!

The muffled sound of "bang bang bang" breaking through the air suddenly made a loud "boom"!
Liang Yuan was suddenly startled, and then ecstatic!

"It worked! I gathered all my strength into one and punched!"

Liang Yuan quickly tried again, trying hard to remember the state of his punch just now.

With the help of the skill beads contributed by the big-headed monster, he quickly memorized this way of exerting force.

Then every time he threw a punch, the force of the fist roared and the air exploded.

The heavy rain was crackled by him, forming a large amount of water mist!
Liang Yuan burst into laughter, with an unprecedented excitement on his face.

He whistled and punched in the water, hitting left and right continuously.

The air crackled with a loud bang, the energy whistled and flowed, and the air exploded around his fist.

The punch exploded into nothingness!

This is exactly the power of Wu Meng’s punch at that time!

You know, at this moment Liang Yuan didn't even use his [Muscle Explosion] ability!
Time passed by little by little. After Liang Yuan had thrown hundreds of punches, his heart suddenly started pounding and supernatural energy surged out.

Liang Yuan immediately realized that it was the [Evolution] ability that was working again!
But he saw the supernatural power flowing through his muscle fibers and bone fascia.

The fibers in his muscles began to become tough and strong, and his bones began to become dark and hard. What was even more exaggerated was that his fascia was actually thickening layer by layer!
Liang Yuan was filled with surprise and joy. This change caused his body to rapidly expand by several points.

The muscle dimensions have also increased a lot, but overall, it does not appear bloated, but instead has a sense of smooth power!
Liang Yuan felt the transformation of his body brought about by the evolutionary power.

After all the transformation was completed, Liang Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

He stomped his foot hard on the stone slab, and then his spine became like a dragon, his tendons pulled, his hands clenched into fists, and his arms were like sharp arrows, and he punched out suddenly!
boom--!
There was a terrifying explosion and a loud bang.

But on the surface of his fist, a ball of gray-white air condensed and did not disperse, and suddenly burst out!

The gray-white airflow shot out about five meters and hit a rock!
Boom!

In an instant, the stone was suddenly blown apart by the air flow. With a loud bang, the stone broke into pieces, and the exploded stones flew everywhere. The sound of splashing into the water was endless!
Liang Yuan looked at his fist in astonishment, and couldn't help but shout in surprise: "Air Cannon Fist!"
