Chapter 557 Extremes and Overdraft
The two new abilities, Eye of Insight and Reality Shatter, will also change accordingly under the two "extreme" states.

Affinity: Enhanced insight, enabling the uncovering of all the secrets within an individual.

In this state, Ji Li can see through all the hidden potential powers of the other party, gaining a great intelligence advantage.

Willpower: Reality Shattering is enhanced, enabling it to transform into a beam of spiritual light that directly impacts the opponent.

In this state, Reality Shattering will no longer be able to interfere with any of the opponent's secrets, but the more secrets the opponent has, the more powerful the destructive force it can cause.

Reality Shattering will also become the only remote means that Ji Li can use on his self-driven spiritual level under the "Will Extreme State".

Self-driven means launching ranged attacks directly with spiritual matter, such as the floating cannons of the Dragonfirefly, or the Wind Demon Engine directly creating air vortices for crushing and shredding.

The effect of grabbing a rock and throwing it as a cruise missile under extreme willpower is not included in this category.

Of course, this ability consumes a significant amount of spiritual energy.

Based on the current conversion ratio, completely clearing one attribute and twisting it to another attribute to achieve an "extreme state" would consume one-third of his total spiritual essence.

Given the current intensity of the battle, he can only perform one more dual-dimensional transformation at most, and the remaining one-third of his spiritual energy must be entirely devoted to the battle.

Therefore, the current situation is not suitable for making multiple transitions in a single battle, and there are certain limitations.

It's impossible to switch at will to deal with different situations as Ji Li initially envisioned.

But after all, this is a breakthrough from 0 to 1, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

For example, with in-depth development, the proportion of spiritual energy consumption will be reduced, and the transformation between "three dimensions" and "four dimensions" will be further extended, not just limited to will and affinity.

For example, if one of the main attributes is allocated to the Extrasensory Perception, Ji Li will have an extraordinary sensing range. Perhaps this will allow the Death Star form to become an ultra-long-range strike weapon, and it is even possible that the Eye of Insight will be upgraded to the level of the Eye of Truth.

The idea is to provide a huge amount of spiritual energy, making up for Ji Li's biggest weakness: endurance. Based on his experience, the total number of Dragonfire Worms on Death Star will probably increase dramatically. Coupled with the continuous supply of Soul Wells, fighting a war would probably not be a problem.

Besides the "extreme state," above the "extreme state" is the "overdraft" state, which is the state where Ji Li's values ​​went berserk and he could not control the infinite transformation of values.

He can force his way into this state by paying a certain price, allowing one attribute to infinitely overdraw another, resulting in a terrifying state of continuous expansion of a single attribute.

In this state, he can use the power of the Time Domain Dagger, which requires reaching the Netherworld level to activate.

This is the result of his simulation within the soul space.

Moreover, it is not necessary to exceed a certain value of attributes through "overdraft" to achieve this. As long as the overdraft state is activated, he can use the power of Felin in the fragment.

In other words, the act of overdrawing himself gave him the power level of the Netherworld Illumination level, which enabled him to use the Time Spirit Essence.

Contrary to his previous assumption, his own values ​​had reached the level of the Netherworld Illumination, thus meeting the conditions for using the Time Essence.

When in an overdraft state, one of his attributes will continuously increase, but the corresponding other attribute will continuously decrease, even showing an uncontrollable trend.

This results in Ji Li having extremely strong strengths and extremely weak weaknesses.

An excessively low level in a certain attribute can also lead to some unpredictable situations.

For example, if his affinity reaches a certain negative level, he will directly transform into a jinx, causing everything around him to end badly and affecting his own luck.

Needless to say, if one's willpower is too low, one's self-will will be affected.

As for the cost of "overdrafting"...

Ji Li glanced at Odin, who was covered in cracks but was slowly repairing, and at the stagnant state of the Well of Souls within the Trinity.

Odin himself will be affected, and although the specific nature of this effect is unknown, it is clearly not a good thing.

The stagnant state of the Well of Souls made the flow of his spiritual essence extremely slow, and recovery was also extremely slow.

It's been a day since Shu's matter ended, and the stagnation has gradually subsided.

Unless absolutely necessary, overdrafting is not a good choice, as the negative effects are very strong.

Ji Li exited the soul space and returned to his room. Shu's situation was unexpected, but it brought him considerable gains; however, that guy is quite troublesome now…

Ji Li listened carefully to the sounds downstairs, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he picked up his phone and cleared the messages on it.

The message on the tombstone was clearly urging him to confirm the situation and head to White Island as soon as possible.

Given the incident at the dock and Shu's affair, Ji Li believed it was no coincidence, and that leaving Shulong quickly was unlikely.

In addition, Ji Li also saw a message from Yan Xiyu:
Do you know someone named 'Nine Owls'?

The message was sent a few hours ago, when Ji Li was still in the soul space.

Ji Li replied to the other party:

Although I'm doing alright in Mirage City, I'm not known to just anyone. Who is this, your mission target?

He was about to put down his phone when he realized Yan Xiyu was currently on a mission in the southwest region, but he hadn't expected the guy to reply so quickly.
[Not the target, but haven't you heard of this name?]

Ji Li frowned slightly:

I think I've heard of this name before?

The other party did not reply immediately, but instead displayed "Replying" before disappearing and then reappearing.

Ji Li could almost see Yan Xiyu typing and deleting on the other end of the line.

What's going on with this guy?

[Ji Li: What happened?]

Just as Ji Li was about to put his phone in his pocket, the cool girl replied:
"It's nothing, nothing particularly important, I can handle it myself. How have you been these past few days? I heard from the Dragon Vein Covenant Bureau that things haven't been peaceful in Mirage City lately."

[Ji Li: Visiting multiple countries, things are certainly not peaceful.]

[Cool Girl: Then you better be careful. I don't want to see you lying in a hospital bed after I'm gone.]

[Ji Li: I don't want to see you carried to Mirage City on a stretcher either.]

[Cool Girl: Going to work now, bye.]

I'm not in the mood for arguing.

Ji Li narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and then sent a message to the butler:
"Help me investigate someone named 'Nine Owls'."

After receiving confirmation from the housekeeper, Ji Li put away his phone and prepared to go downstairs to check on Shu's condition.

Now that he's free, this guy has caused quite a bit of trouble.

One was from the royal family, another from Rizhao, and there were other diplomatic missions.

A paradox of being able to act freely, the royal family dared not be negligent at all.

There is currently no concrete plan on how to deal with Shu's presence; the only measure taken is to increase the highest level of security forces within the Yuanling Prince's Mansion.

Just as Ji Li put his phone away, a magnetic, husky female voice came to his ear:

"Are you chatting with Jin Misha, or with Yu Yaxun, Yan Xiyu, Feilin, Qin, Che Li, Moli, Heixiang, and Ji Ruoxi?"

Ji Li's lips twitched—

Here we go again, right?

Then look towards the door:

"Why did you come up here?"
