I'm extremely interested in Nen abilities.

At this moment, even the nonchalant Duen put down the controller and looked over.

Arantre said, "A while ago, Jin suddenly contacted me and said that someone might come to Greed Island. If he sees this thing, something interesting might happen."

Duen said, "What that guy finds interesting is usually not a good thing!"

Li Site asked with some confusion, "Are you referring to the person who was disguised as Jin just now?"

Chapter 242 Authenticity

The handsome guy who was disguised as Jin is now sitting quietly with his eyes closed under a big tree.

On the opposite rock, Bisky focused her gaze intently on Jingyang, who was cultivating, observing the flow of the dense, swirling energy around him.

"The total amount of gas seems to be increasing," Bisky thought to herself. "What's going on? This is reminding me of that old man Netero..."

Netero has a personality that enjoys finding sparring partners. Bisky is not only a member of the Hunter Association, but also a disciple of the Shingen-ryu school. In her youth, she had sparred with Netero countless times, and she had also witnessed Netero's serious meditation and training. At that time, Netero possessed an indescribable aura.

Conitero is a martial arts grandmaster; his meditation and energy cultivation are aimed at activating his dormant power. How does Jingyang increase his mental power simply by sitting still?

Jing Yang was, of course, "refining" the death energy.

Upon entering Greed Island, four streams of death energy had already accumulated on the death energy panel.

He invested 3 points of death energy into the Transformation type, instantly raising the upper limit of the Transformation type's aptitude from 84.3% to 87.3%. The only remaining incomplete Manifestation type also slightly increased, reaching 98.8%.

Jingyang directly incorporated the remaining 1 point of death energy into his total mental energy for refining.

总念量：30906，31000……31404……31502……最后停留在总念量31999气。

This time, 1 point of death energy was refined into more than 1000 units.

Good luck.

Jingyang was satisfied. He slowly opened his eyes and looked up. He saw a pair of bright, jewel-like eyes in front of him. It turned out that Bisky had somehow gotten close to him.

“Auntie, isn’t it a bit impolite to observe people like that?” Jingyang said.

Bisky asked as if talking to herself, "Your... Nen ability can enhance your qualities in all aspects, right? Including your potential in other Nen types, which is why you asked me about dual or multiple Nen types before... Not only that, it can also relatively simply and directly increase your total Nen power."

Jing Yang was ashamed: "As expected of a hunter in his fifties, his observation and analytical abilities are terrifying!"

This time, Bisky didn't hit him. She just said, "I don't know what your ability is, but you must always remember one thing—you are a manipulator-type Nen user. No matter how many Nen abilities you develop, you should always keep this in mind and use it to guide your training and combat."

“Thoughts are the heart.” She pointed her index finger at Jingyang’s chest.

Jingyang nodded in understanding, then jokingly asked, "Aren't you curious why I can do this? To be honest, I'm almost at the maximum level in all six major mental cultivation systems now, all six at 100%!"

Bisky scoffed, straightened up, and said, "Do you think you've done something unprecedented or unparalleled?"

"Oh?" Jingyang asked curiously.

“From the very day the concept of Nen was born, people have tried to master all Nen abilities,” Bisky said. “Most of them failed and accomplished nothing in their lives. They didn’t master their own Nen type, and their efforts in adjacent or opposing Nen types were also inefficient and a waste of time. However, for every person who fails, there is someone who succeeds.”

She paused, then said seriously, "At least, Chairman Netero once said that there are indeed six masters in the world who are proficient in all six Nen systems."

who is it?

Could it be gold?

Jingyang asked curiously, "What about before the concept of Nianxi was born?"

Bisky rolled her eyes: "Before the concept of Nen systems existed, people naturally practiced whatever abilities they could. If they practiced the right way, their skills would improve rapidly and naturally. If they practiced the wrong way, they would just have to accept their bad luck. What else could they say?"

Jingyang nodded.

It seems that in the world of Hunters, not only are technological weapons and other things advancing rapidly, but similar to the past, the training of Nen is also the same. There is no such thing as the present being inferior to the past. The training philosophy of Nen ability is also constantly being innovated, becoming more and more professional, theoretical, and systematic.

Compared to modern professional hunters, ancient Nen users were mostly self-taught.

Thinking of this, Jingyang couldn't help but look at Xiaodi not far away.

Shizuku is also training, honing her bulging-eyed fish ability—ever since learning from Bisky that the key to Conjuration training lies in "realism," she has begun to refocus her training on her original Conjuration type.

But how can we train and improve "realism"?

From a pragmatic point of view, whether the bulging-eyed fish is "real" or not does not affect its use.

It doesn't look like something that exists in reality. It's supposed to be a vacuum cleaner, but it has a mouth with sharp teeth like a living creature. It's alive. Any Nen user with a brain should know that this thing is a materialized prop, no matter how "realistic" it is.

Nevertheless, Xiaodi still wanted to continue improving the bulging-eyed fish. Although it might sound strange, the bulging-eyed fish was indeed her first partner and her only friend before Jingyang.

But the same question remains: how exactly do you train the "realism" of materialized objects?

Xiao Di focused her gaze and thought for a moment, realizing that this was not enough. So she released a 'circle' with a radius of two meters, enveloping the bulging-eyed fish completely within it, allowing her to observe the "fake" details of the bulging-eyed fish from all angles.

If you find the "fake" locations of the energy fluctuations on the vacuum cleaner, then you just need to work hard to erase these "fake points" and make it more real, right?

Suddenly, two small hands wearing white gloves entered her "circle".

Little Drop looked up at Bisky and saw invisible Nen energy gushing from Bisky's palms, forming a rapidly expanding turbulent current. Bisky quickly opened her arms, as if embracing an invisible, chaotic, violent, and enormous ball of Nen, and slowly pushed this raging ball of Nen towards Little Drop's bulging-eyed fish vacuum cleaner.

This ball of raging Nen was clearly not a Nen ability, nor was it an offensive Nen projectile. It simply formed a chaotic area of ​​energy. When it completely covered the bulging-eyed fish, Shizuku found that the bulging-eyed fish in her hand suddenly became very "heavy"... or rather, it was becoming increasingly difficult for her to maintain the stability of the bulging-eyed fish.

Soon, the bulging-eyed fish began to shake violently, like a television screen with a poor signal. Even the large mouth of the vacuum cleaner could not maintain its shape and almost disintegrated into pure Nen.

Little Drop suddenly realized: "So this is how the materialization system cultivates realism!"

Bisky blinked her left eye and smiled, "Try to manifest in this environment as you normally would."

Jingyang asked from behind, "I understand. As long as you keep increasing the ferocity of the energy you release, you can continue to increase the realism of the materialization and the difficulty of cultivation, right?"

“Don’t just stare. This is such a simple trick. You can’t learn it after watching it once, can you?” Bisky said without turning her head. “Didn’t you say you’re 100% capable of releasing power? I’ll only teach you once, so listen carefully.”

Jingyang listened attentively to Bisky's explanation of how to create this violent aura to aid in the cultivation of materialization reality, while Xiaodi focused intently on the environment of the violent aura released by Bisky, trying little by little to materialize a stable bulging-eyed fish.

After the three of them spent the morning cultivating, they released some food from the bulging-eyed fish for lunch. Then, as Jingyang had instructed, they went to find one of their targets – Leizha.

However, Jingyang only remembered that the card Leizha was in charge of was called something like "One Ping of Coastline", but he didn't quite remember the exact location of Leizha's place, which was the town on Greed Island. Anyway, it seemed to be somewhere like a lighthouse.

He put on a tiger-skin skirt, used his Seventy-Two Transformations to become a giant roc, and carried Little Drop and Bisky in the air, flying at an extremely fast speed toward the nearest town.

"Leizha! Respond if you hear me!!"

Chapter 243 Exhaustive Explanation

"Leizha! Come out quickly!!"

"Where is Leizha?!"

Someone's coming after you!

Above the town, a bird resembling a roc soared, and a clear, sharp female voice echoed above everyone's heads.

Who is Leizha?

Are there people on the birds?

The townspeople and players alike had this question in mind.

"Using this method to find someone is really..."

"To be so high-profile on this island, don't they know the meaning of death?"

"An experienced person wouldn't be so careless; it's probably a newbie who just arrived on the island!"

"If it's a newcomer..."

In the streets and alleys, many eyes observed the large bird circling overhead, whispering among themselves. It was a pity that the person on the bird was too high off the ground, exceeding the maximum casting distance of the Greed Island spell card; otherwise, a Spying spell card would have been used directly to see how many cards this newcomer had in his pocket to be so arrogant.

This arrogant newcomer, currently perched on the back of the roc, said with great dissatisfaction, "Making an old man like me say such humiliating lines is practically an act of betrayal against my master! Why aren't you saying anything?"

Xiao Di sat down next to him, touched her neck, and said, "Jing Yang has turned into a bird and can't speak human language anymore."

"Hmph, deliberately playing dumb," Bisky said, patting the wings beneath her. "You've used up a lot of energy, haven't you? Go and rest for a while."

The roc nodded, surveyed the town below, found a secluded corner, folded its wings, and almost plummeted downwards. The wind howled on both sides, but fortunately, the two riders on its back were both agile experts who waited steadily for it to "crash" before leaping off and landing one after the other.

The roc also swayed and transformed back into Jingyang's appearance. He casually tore off a tiger-skin skirt wrapped around his waist.

In just a short while, a full 10,000 of his 32,000 units of energy were burned away.

While the Seventy-Two Transformations technique is impressive, it's also a huge oil consumer.

"I need to find a chance to fully charge the 'gas battery'," Jingyang muttered to himself.

“What?” Bisky asked.

Jing Yang recounted the story of the Drinking Sword. Bisky exclaimed in surprise, "You little rascal, you've got quite a few good things on you! Just how many abilities have you developed? Can your brain handle it?" She pretended to touch Jing Yang's forehead, as if he had lost his mind.

Nen abilities are all very mentally taxing. Take Kurapika from the original timeline, who trained in the Conjuration type of chains, as an example. In order to successfully conjure chains, he specially bought a real chain and touched it day and night, playing with it constantly, even licking it, just to deeply imprint all the components of the chain into his mind—simply put, he was modeling the chain in his mind, and this kind of modeling undoubtedly consumes a lot of brain memory.

Even though other types of Nen abilities don't require materialization tools, every Nen ability is, to some extent, something created out of nothing. If you're greedy and don't know your limits, and you create and store too many "models" of Nen abilities in your mind, when you actually need to use them, it's not a big deal if your brain runs out of memory; it's a real problem if you crash from trying to multitask.

Jing Yang smiled: "The Yin Nian Sword is not something I can do myself; it was a gift from someone else."

Bisky asked curiously, "You can even send this?"

So, Jingyang briefly told Bisji about how Zhenwu King had refined the parasitic beast and transformed it into a sword called Yin Nian Sword, which he then gave to him.

Upon hearing this, Bisji instructed Jingyang to extend the Yin Nian sword to examine it. Sure enough, on the ethereal sword, they saw hollow runes, roughly counting more than thirty.

“Try cutting me with your sword,” Bisky said.

Jingyang was beheaded.

The Nen Sword grazed Bisky without causing any physical damage, but it did draw away some of her Nen energy. Bisky estimated for a moment and said, "Come and cut me later to recharge the 'battery' of your sword."

Little Drop asked, "Full? You alone?"

Bisky smiled slightly: "I'm enough on my own."

Jingyang asked curiously, "Biskey, how much do you always measure?"

Bisky snorted twice: "Guess what? -- Let's go somewhere else first. More and more people are coming this way."

Jing Yang wrapped the tiger-skin skirt back around himself, but didn't activate his Seventy-Two Transformations ability. He simply left it hanging as a low-power mode for easy portability. He recalled the town layout he had seen from the sky earlier. "Over there, let's go get some food first."

On the way, Xiao Di said to Jing Yang, "Bisky's words make a lot of sense. Having too many Nen abilities isn't necessarily a good thing."

She knew that Jing Yang planned to develop at least one ability from each of the six Nen systems. In Jing Yang's words, since the talents and potential had already been developed, wouldn't it be a waste not to develop a corresponding ability along the way?

As Jingyang walked, he said, "Indeed, especially the materialization system... It should be possible to develop it, but just think about the complexity of creating things out of thin air. Treating it as an 'elective' subject would probably be quite brain-draining."
