Talent level increased by one, a transcendent Star Wizard

In the end, Xia Jian took Westin back to the Wizard Tower and let Westin stay there until Heramons returned before discussing other matters.

Summer then returned to the basement, intending to destroy Westin's experimental subjects first.

But as soon as Xia Jian entered the laboratory, some sticky liquid got on his feet.

Looking at the green nutrient solution on the ground, Xia Jian looked up at the incubation chamber inside the room.

Unbeknownst to them, a large hole had appeared in the incubation chamber, and the fleshy ball, upon falling to the ground, bulged and throbbed as if it were breathing.

A bad feeling rose in Xia Jian's heart, and he turned to look at the glass cage on the lab table.

By this time, the glass cage had shattered, and the minced meat inside had vanished without a trace.

The alien creatures in the hornbill cages have also disappeared; not even a single hair was left on the ground.

Upon seeing this, Xia Jian quickly left the laboratory and then began checking whether the restrictions inside the laboratory had been triggered.

"The restriction has been triggered, but it hasn't been broken. It seems that the lump of flesh is still inside."

Seeing that the barrier was intact, Xia Jian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

As it is the residence of a second-tier wizard, the tower has a complete defensive structure, and the lightning array in the laboratory is enough to vaporize most creatures below the first tier.

Unfortunately, there was no tower spirit, so Natsumi had no idea what had happened.

As the Dark Demon Soul Infusion was activated, a black cloak was draped over Xia Jian's body, and Xia Jian cautiously entered the laboratory.

However, after searching, no damage was found, and the location that triggered the formation was slightly charred, with a few traces of congealed blood scattered nearby.

After searching around, Xia Jian still couldn't find any minced meat, so he could only focus his attention on his own test subject.

Using mental power, I lifted the ball of flesh and placed it into a glass container on the lab table.

Both the weight and size have increased slightly, and if Xia Jian hadn't kept daily experimental records, he might not have noticed this subtle change.

"Could it be that the flesh slime ate meat paste?"

Xia Jian raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at the fleshy ball in the glass container with some difficulty in understanding.

After all, there are three strange beasts in the laboratory, and their size alone is enough to be equivalent to more than a hundred flesh balls.

If it really ate it, then its digestive ability is incredibly strong.

Moreover, the energy from digestion...

Thinking of this, Xia Jian took out a scalpel, preparing to cut off a tentacle for research, to see whether that puddle of mud had escaped or been eaten.

If the composition of the flesh slime remains unchanged, then Natsumi probably won't be able to sleep tonight.

After all, the entire laboratory couldn't find that lump of rotten flesh, and even with the intact restrictions, Xia Jian still couldn't put his mind at ease.

Just as the scalpel was about to touch the tentacle, the tentacle, which had been lying listlessly under the glass cover, suddenly lifted up.

The tiny mouth at the tip of the tentacle opened and then spewed flames at Natsume's face.

The slender flame shot straight at Xia Jian's face, but was blocked by the cloak he was wearing.

The flame intensity is not high; it can barely be considered a windproof lighter.

But when he saw that the flesh slime could breathe fire, Natsuma was stunned.

He had already tested it before; the flesh slime did indeed possess the five elements' talents, but it lacked the ability to cast spells and could not store much energy.

It's like the flesh and blood slime is just an ordinary person, and a living dead without independent thought.

Lacking spiritual power means being unable to mobilize energy to cast spells, and unlike some alien beasts whose organs inherently possess the energy for casting spells, this is why Xia Jian is preparing to abandon the flesh slime.

Moreover, flesh slimes are extremely fragile, with a survival rate of only one out of more than ten.

Summer's requirements weren't high; at least he needed to be able to cast spells normally, otherwise the subsequent experiments would be impossible to carry out.

Of course, this is still the initial version.

If Xia Jian wanted to obtain the ability to reverse his innate attributes, it would probably take several years or even decades to achieve the result, or perhaps it was simply impossible.

…………

"Could it really have succeeded?"

Seeing that the flesh slime could cast spells, Xia Jian's breathing became rapid.

But what surprised Xia Jian even more was yet to come.

The flesh slime raised its other tentacles, its tiny mouth opening and closing, some breathing fire, some spitting water, some launching earth spikes, some condensing golden blades, and even... blooming flowers?

Looking at the small red flower growing from the tentacle's mouth, Natsumi's lips twitched slightly.

"It really does have the five elements attribute; I wonder if it has anything to do with that lump of minced meat..."

Looking at the various tentacles, Xia Jian fell into deep thought.

A lot happened today, leaving Xia Jian unsure of which matter to handle.

In particular, the successful experimental subject surprised Natsumi, but also made him feel somewhat worried.

He didn't know whether the Black Book was good or bad, but he didn't want to easily give up this hard-won "fruit".

…………

Just as Xia Jian was pondering the problem, the flesh slime seemed to run out of energy and gradually stopped casting spells.

Sensing the changes in the flesh slime, Xia Jian slowly raised his head, preparing to put the flesh slime back into the incubation chamber for further processing.

But just as Xia Jian looked at the flesh slime, several cracks suddenly opened on the flesh ball, revealing some strange eyeballs.

These eyes are all different; some have vertical pupils, some have blue eyes, some have cross-shaped pupils, and some even have black pupils similar to Natsumi's.

In just a moment, the strange eyeball bulged, and then some bubbles were forced into the eyeball.

Upon closer inspection, Xia Jian discovered that those tiny bubbles were actually eyeballs, only much smaller.

A dense array of eyes turned to Xia Jian.

Xia Jian was puzzled. Could it be that the flesh-and-blood slime had developed a mind?

In that moment of distraction, the surrounding elemental forces began to fluctuate violently, and the flesh slime's tentacles intertwined and then merged into a thicker tentacle.

As the mouth on the tentacle opened, a five-colored ball of light shot out from it.

"Bang!"

Summer was struck by the five-colored orb of light and was startled by the explosion, completely unprepared.

Looking down at the shadow covering his face, the black mist on his forehead was slightly dispersed.

Xia Jian couldn't help but show a look of astonishment.

Keep in mind, he's a first-tier wizard, capable of slaughtering countless disciples with a wave of his hand, yet this mere lighter that only blooms almost pierced his defenses?!

Even if you are unprepared, it is still not easy to do this.

Yet this fleshy ball, with its scarce internal energy, unleashed an attack that he couldn't comprehend, unleashing an attack several times stronger than before at the cost of minimal energy!

This change was unexpected by Natsume and exceeded his expectations.
