Blood Assimilation

[[You have fully comprehended the technique, 'Void Rippling Punch']] 

The system immediately announced. 

After this, Randy was suddenly itching to try out this profound technique. Although he felt like he had just practiced it for an unknown amount of times in his mental space during the comprehension process, however, nothing beats actually practicing it with his own hands and seeing his progress. 

With that thought in mind, Randy immediately stood up and walk forward to open the door to his room before suddenly recalling something that he had forgotten about for a while now.

He turned away from the door and then walked toward a direction for a while before reaching the laundry bag. 

He then picked up his pair of pants, this was the pair of black pants that he had worn today, he immediately put his hands into his side pocket before taking out a bottle filled with some liquid.

After thinking for a bit, he used his Blood Authority skill to take out the liquid from the bottle as it hovered in front of him and then after checking it for no issues, he used the Blood Authority skill to solidify the liquid before grasping it into his palm.

And soon…

⟪[[Discovered a 'Purified Blood Essence' of an awakened human]]⟫

⟪[[Due to your unique skill 'Blood Assimilate,' you are able to assimilate with this blood thus obtaining its 'Blood Knowledge']]⟫

A short moment later…

⟪[[Detected a unique and very rare mental ability signature in this blood essence. Due to its nature encompassing that of mental energy, the host had been given the following choices:]]⟫

⟪[[First Choice: Assimilate with the 'Purified Blood Essence' and you would be able to utilize it to retrieve the 'Blood Knowledge' and be able to use all the abilities of the source of this blood, however, the ability will be limited to your current mental energy as the subsequent boost on mental energy from assimilation, in general, is minimal in comparison to that of the basic statistics]]⟫

⟪[[Second Choice: Fuse and transform this 'Purified Blood Essence,' thus converting and making it your own, this would bring about a new unique ability that can be used even without entering assimilated mode and as this is not an evolved human's blood, your Blood Energy or Evolution Energy would not increase. Naturally, you would still be able to retain the 'Blood Knowledge' using your 'Blood Retain' skill, allowing you to still use the enhancement effects of its assimilated mode, although the enhancement effect will decrease slightly due to your fusion with this blood essence. Furthermore, the host can also choose to spend Knowledge Points to cultivate the subsequent mental ability directly or increase your mental energy or mental strength directly to match the prerequisite of the subsequent mental ability. However using this method, the host might lose the chance of possibly awakening your very own mental ability after you reach the threshold of 200 Psionic energy and breaking through to the next realm of mental cultivation]]⟫

⟪[[Please think carefully before making your choice]]⟫

The system stated after the notifications.

Seeing these series of notifications from the system, Randy carefully read through every single sentence two times to make sure that he fully understood the implications of what the system was stating.

After reading everything, Randy then looked on his status screen that was next to the screen displaying the notifications, specifically the Combat System Power Level Section on the status screen.

Psi Realm[0]: None (87.5/200)

⟪[[Psionic Energy(Mental Energy): 87.5/87.5]]⟫

"I see, so that was what that was… I always wondered what cultivating the mental energy will elicit, however, I never thought that it would aid one in possibly awakening a mental ability of their own." 

He muttered as he glanced at the number signifying the amount of mental energy next to the Psi Realm and Psionic energy icons.

'It seems like I still need to reach 200 mental energy, no, Psionic energy in order to even think about awakening a mental ability. However according to what the system said, this mental ability signature detected in Jiang Chen's blood was very rare and unique… in that case, rather than hoping to acquire a mental ability of my own or actually acquiring one right now… it is obvious that I would pick the latter. Not to mention, the system said, I can directly improve my mental ability and also my mental energy using my accumulated Knowledge points…. So it turns out Knowledge points do have other uses…' 

Randy ruminated about the choices and finally made up his mind about what to pick.

'System, I have decided to pick the second choice and fuse with this blood essence.' Randy stated resolutely.

[[Are you sure? Have thought deeply about your decision? If you choose to fuse with this blood essence, the assimilated state might not bring any significant boost to your strength]] 

'Less nonsense, of course, I pick the second choice because I thought very hard about it. And also Jiang Chen is not much of an athlete so he might not give much basic statistics boost… no, I know for a fact that he will not give much boost. And with that thought in mind, I decided to pick the second choice.' 

Randy explained the reason behind his decision.

There was another reason why he picked the second choice, that is, it was very hard to cultivate the Psionic energy. As Randy had noticed from a while ago, the mental strength or mental energy and the Psionic energy were correlated with each other.

With that, he quickly glanced above and looked at his current mental strength and his Psionic energy.

⟪[Mental Strength: 875]⟫

---

⟪[[Psionic Energy(Mental Energy): 87.5/87.5]]⟫

---

Psi Realm[0]: None (87.5/200)

---

With things being like this, how long would it take to finally cultivate his mental energy or mental strength to finally reach the threshold of 200 Psionic energy before he could even attempt awakening his mental ability? 

Although there were different methods one can use to increase their mental energy, the first one was the natural method, which is through cultivating magical energy or spiritual energy and the second method was through cultivating one's mental energy through a mental cultivation method. 

However using the second method was very dangerous as it could damage your mind with the slightest disruption or mistake in execution, and thus only some people with confidence and various contingencies already set up would attempt using these mental energy cultivation methods to increase their mental strength or mental energy. 

As Randy was thinking about this, the system's notification suddenly popped up with lines of texts displaying in front of his eyes.

[[Response Acknowledged!]]

[[To begin the fusion process, the host must consume the 'Purified Blood Essence' in your hand or…]]

"Ah, right." 

Seeing the notifications, Randy abruptly snapped out of his thoughts and immediately popped the solidified blood in his hand into his mouth.
