God-Level Special Forces Soldier

Chapter 890: Chapter 886: Failed Attempt

Staring at the magical energy floating silently in front of him, Xiao Tian couldn’t help but feel a bit suspicious.

Logically, ordinary energy would not have any autonomous awareness unless driven by an external force, like a lifeless entity waiting to be absorbed and assimilated.

But the scene just witnessed clearly had no external force driving it, nor any human activation, yet the energy spontaneously began to operate within the interior space of the Shaking Light Disc, which truly defies common sense!

After thinking about it, Xiao Tian still extended his hand, cautiously approaching the energy in front of him.

However, this time the scene of nourishing everything did not appear, but the comfort originating from the depths of the soul remained, and the True Qi surging in the meridians became active as before, making Xiao Tian click his tongue repeatedly.

This energy, to a certain extent, resembles Lin Bingxuan’s Endless Life, but when carefully experienced, one can find the differences within, and they are quite significant.

Lin Bingxuan’s Endless Life, in essence, is a continuation of vitality, as long as there is a breath remaining, it can exert its effect, similar to the roots and stems of a plant, as long as the root doesn’t die and vitality continues, there’s hope ahead.

While the energy at this time is more like a branch of Endless Life, merely existing independently, stimulating vitality with energy, the two complement each other.

However, upon detailed examination, Xiao Tian feels that Endless Life still surpasses it, as survival is the foundation of everything.

Of course, adding a touch of energy to this foundation can make everything much more effective!

However, this energy is unlike Endless Life; it can utilize the Life Seal’s autonomous operation and the conversion by the Artifact Spirit girl to ensure the energy can be reused.

But the vibrant energy in front of him, once used, diminishes and cannot be regenerated or replicated.

Thinking of this, Xiao Tian couldn’t help but recall another function of the Shaking Light Disc, which is bringing things from the internal space to the real world.

Xiao Tian did not entertain the fanciful idea of manifesting a great weapon within the Shaking Light Disc and then bringing it to the real world to wreak havoc.

Because reality has proven, this idea is really unfeasible.

Just like the Divine Weapon Xiao Tian had manifested last time, a blade said to be shorter than a dagger and longer than a knife, vanished like smoke as soon as his consciousness left the interior space of the Shaking Light Disc, as if it never existed.

However, that’s because the blade is ultimately a physical entity, and due to the conflict between the laws of the interior space of the Shaking Light Disc and the real world, it’s only natural it cannot be taken out.

But energy is different; it exists between physical and non-physical, able to offer tangible benefits to people.

In Xiao Tian’s view, if this idea can be realized, the road ahead will be unobstructed.

For instance, Lin Bingxuan’s Endless Life can first be introduced into the Shaking Light Disc, and then based on this point of energy, copied and brought into the real world, equating to an additional guarantee during future battles.

Moreover, not only energy used for recovery but also aggressive energy that can cause damage can be emulated in this way, equivalent to carrying a universal treasury, both for self-healing and delivering fatal blows to the enemy in critical moments!

Thinking of this, Xiao Tian felt the excitement in his heart increasingly uncontrollable, eagerly wanting to experiment with his hypothesis.

Xiao Tian immediately locked onto the vibrant energy in front of him, then followed some of Lu Yangrong’s experiences and began attempting to replicate the energy step by step...

However, the next moment, Xiao Tian suddenly felt his consciousness fading by half, becoming somewhat unstable, accompanied by an extreme fatigue without any warning, indicating a massive depletion of Spiritual Power.

Looking at the scanty energy replicated, barely one percent, after draining almost all his Spiritual Power, Xiao Tian couldn’t help but smile wryly, realizing his thoughts were indeed a bit too naïve this time.

Yet, when Xiao Tian attempted to touch the hardly replicated energy, the size of a fingertip, he felt a slight consolation; at least the replicated energy was identical to the original, albeit the consumption was unbearable.

Thinking that he had already validated one hypothesis, why not verify another; try to see if he can actually take this energy out.

Without hesitation, Xiao Tian immediately grasped the paltry replicated energy and, with a thought, brought it back to reality.

However, events once again went beyond Xiao Tian’s expectations.

Just as Xiao Tian’s consciousness returned to his body, he suddenly felt a blackout, a strong dizziness almost causing him to fall forward, collapsing onto the bed.

Simultaneously, the muscles in his body began to ache, a feeling of powerlessness spread through him, making even moving a finger seem laborious.

...

After a long while, when Xiao Tian regained some strength, he couldn’t help but feel a bit terrified.

Indeed, he managed to bring out the energy the size of a fingertip, but the price was that his entire body’s True Qi was abruptly drained, like a Water Drop on a furnace, immediately evaporated.

The soreness and weakness in his limbs clearly told him that the True Qi in his body is far from enough to pay the price of bringing energy out from the Shaking Light Disc, so he could only resort to extreme methods, sparing no effort.

This no-credit policy leaves Xiao Tian deeply shocked; fortunately, he wasn’t in a dangerous environment at the moment, otherwise, even that brief moment would have been sufficient to kill him hundreds of times over.

The two attempts brought about a massive drain of Spiritual Power and True Qi, leading Xiao Tian to instantly abandon his previously exciting hypothesis, deciding to leave the matter behind.

According to this ratio, even if Xiao Tian had peak strength, it would still be entirely insufficient to support copying and bringing out enough energy, the cost and benefit are completely out of proportion, work double the effort and half the return!

If one is not a fool, surely no one would engage in such a thing.

Of course, Xiao Tian doesn’t think he’s been wasting time and effort on meaningless experimentation.

In his view, every attempt has its use, some may not be needed regularly, while others offer immediate visible benefits.

But this doesn’t mean there won’t be a day they’ll be needed; should that day arrive without the proper means, the difficulty will magnify dramatically compared to now.

Therefore, despite the exhaustive effort, lack of expected results, Xiao Tian doesn’t harbor much regret.

And at this moment, a new conjecture once again surged in his mind, ready to be used.
