Chapter 143: Promotion to Level 18! Mechanical Ascension Lightning Attribute Skill! Thunder Fist!
Since the last time Ye Qingxue and Feng Lan returned, Lin Tianming has been undergoing continuous high-intensity training for a long time.
Unconsciously, Lin Tianming has already been at the Imperial Capital Grand Academy for more than a month.
With the level increase, Lin Tianming's cultivation speed was no longer as rapid as from level one to seventeen.
After immersing at level seventeen for a period, Lin Tianming finally felt that he had reached the bottleneck of level seventeen, just one step away from reaching level eighteen.
Bathed in a stage five intensity thunder pool, Lin Tianming was breaking through the bottleneck under the baptism of the power of thunder.
Jiang Han was watching the whole process from the side. If any accident occurred, she could respond immediately.
However, in her view, Lin Tianming was unlikely to encounter any accidents during his promotion to level eighteen.
Staring at Lin Tianming's steadily rising aura in the thunder pool, a trace of unconcealable relief appeared on Jiang Han's pretty face.
[This child Tianming was only level nine when he started school in his previous life. In this life, he was already level fifteen when he entered, and after more than a month of high-intensity training, he is about to break through to level eighteen. This cultivation speed is much faster than in his previous life!]
[His God's Hand copying and plundering abilities won't have new enhancement points at level eighteen. He will have to wait until level twenty to further enhance his copying ability.]
[However, from my observation and research on his newly acquired soul power abilities and mechanical body abilities in this life, it seems that his ability to turn his whole body into something like steel should also be about to unlock new skills!]
Under Jiang Han's continuous attention, Lin Tianming's promotion this time released the most intense light of mechanical ascension around him.
Although Jiang Han encountered this strange ability for the first time, she could still see through her past experience that Lin Tianming was highly likely to learn new mechanical ascension skills this time.
[But it always feels like something is missing... What went wrong?]
[If possible, I still hope this child can learn a new skill of his mechanical body ability during this breakthrough. If he misses it this time, who knows how long it will take to get another chance!]
Lin Tianming also heard Jiang Han's inner thoughts while he was promoting.
The mechanical body ability she mentioned is actually his mechanical ascension power.
Although she analyzed that he could awaken a new mechanical ascension skill this time, Lin Tianming did not feel any epiphany of new skills.
Could it be that Teacher Jiang Han misjudged?
Whether or not Jiang Han misjudged, Lin Tianming, who was at the critical moment of promotion to level eighteen, would not stop now.
It would be best to learn new skills, but even if he couldn't, just improving his level would be acceptable.
Because reaching level eighteen would enhance his overall combat power in various aspects to different extents.
Jiang Han continued to observe and analyze outside the thunder pool, trying to use her experience to figure out what Lin Tianming still lacked to learn new mechanical ascension skills.
After staring at the four walls of lightning, Phoenix Flame God Shield, and Wrathful Thunder Armor surrounding Lin Tianming for a while, Jiang Han seemed to have a thought.
[Could it be that this child's Lightning Wall, Phoenix Flame God Shield, and Wrathful Thunder Armor are too strong under the baptism of the thunder pool, blocking most of the power of thunder, thus lacking the final bit of tempering for his mechanical body?]
Thinking of this, Jiang Han immediately said to Lin Tianming, "Tianming, withdraw all defensive skills except for your mechanical body. You are about to break through to level eighteen. Seize this opportunity to make your mechanical body reach the most perfect state of level seventeen. Only then will you have the chance to learn new mechanical ability skills when you break through to level eighteen!"
Lin Tianming also heard Jiang Han's inner thoughts, so when she spoke to remind him, he unconditionally trusted her judgment and withdrew all defensive skills except for mechanical transformation.
As the Lightning Wall, Phoenix Flame God Shield, and Wrathful Thunder Armor were withdrawn, Lin Tianming, who was only defended by his mechanical body, immediately felt unprecedented pressure.
He had managed to defend himself with multiple defensive skills, allowing him to swim like a fish in the thunder pool at stage five intensity.
Now relying only on his mechanical body to resist indeed put him under great pressure.
Seeing the mechanical brilliance around Lin Tianming becoming more and more dazzling, Jiang Han showed a look of joy.
"Hold on, little guy. The mechanical brilliance on your body is getting brighter. This is a sign that you are about to realize a new skill. Use the baptism of thunder to refine your mechanical body. You will surely learn a new skill when you break through to level eighteen!"
[I was right. It always felt like something was missing before. It turned out that his other defensive skills were overtrained, causing his innermost mechanical transformation skill to lack baptism!]
[With this final missing tempering baptism filled in, this child will surely learn new mechanical ability skills. I just wonder what kind of skill it will be?]
With Jiang Han, the professional in developing his potential, present, Lin Tianming also focused on breaking through the final bottleneck.
His aura rose faster and faster, and Lin Tianming quickly broke through the last shackles, stepping into the level eighteen.
Almost at the same time he stepped into level eighteen, the body that had been extremely painful under the baptism of the thunder pool with just the mechanical transformation skill felt no pain at all.
This was because stepping from level seventeen to level eighteen greatly increased his mechanical body's defense, allowing him to bathe in the stage five thunder pool with just his mechanical body.
Not only that, but Lin Tianming also sensed a feeling of realizing a new skill.
He continued to cultivate, striving for epiphany.
As he began to understand the final skill, Jiang Han couldn't help but clench her fists, silently cheering for him.
[Go, little Tianming! Let me see what new skill your whole body turning into steel ability will awaken!]
Under Jiang Han's nervous and expectant gaze, the power of thunder in the thunder pool began to gather towards his right fist.
With crackling electric light flickering, Lin Tianming's mechanical right fist exuded increasingly strong thunder power.
[So strange... Why is the skill awakened by his mechanical ability a lightning attribute skill?]
[Could it be that instead of simply enhancing the strength of the mechanical body, it is more varied, using mechanics as the lead, and mastering different powers depending on the training method and opportunities?]
Jiang Han's inner thoughts and analysis also gave Lin Tianming a new understanding of the mechanical ascension path as he realized the new skill.
Mechanical ascenders awaken abilities through mechanization, so it must not be just simple mechanization.
This is somewhat similar to those who awaken abilities through awakening rituals.
Mechanization is just a means to control powerful forces.
Since lightning power can be controlled, then those on the mechanical ascension path could potentially control lightning power.
With this thought, Lin Tianming's mind flashed with the genetic ascenders of the Genetic Kingdom and the psionic ascenders of the Psionic Kingdom.
By analogy, the three ascension kingdoms should all be able to control different powers through their respective ascension paths, varying from person to person.
Just like people now awakening different abilities through awakening rituals.
Understanding this, Lin Tianming thought of the genetic kingdom's Gene Ascender, Angel of the Stellar Key.
She is the best example to prove his point!
Almost at the same time Lin Tianming gained more understanding of the three ascension kingdoms, he successfully learned a new lightning attribute mechanical ascension skill.
Thunder Fist!
Using his mechanical body as the lead, Lin Tianming instantly opened his eyes and blasted out a thunderous punch with the power of lightning.
