Sui Xiong discovered that in this world, there existed a power that could be called "magic."
The giant whale was born with the power of ice, but the reason why it could be so strong that it could freeze a large area of the sea in an instant was not purely because it was born with it, but more because of its acquired cultivation.
Its cultivation method was to absorb the rich magic in a trench in the deep sea.
Sui Xiong really wanted to go to land as soon as possible, find people, and figure out what this world was like. But he also understood that no matter when or where, the most important thing was to protect himself. If he couldn't control his curiosity, even if the strange cat had nine lives, it would kill him sooner or later.
This world wasn't safe. Even a giant whale in the sea could use schemes and tricks, let alone the human world.
Moreover, there was magic in this world, so he didn't know how many strange people and strange methods there would be.
Therefore, he needed to further strengthen himself and his strength to ensure that he could survive in this world. Even if he didn't become invincible, at least he had to make sure that he could escape even if he couldn't beat his opponent.
After patiently waiting for the ice to melt, he absorbed the giant whale's nutrients and repaired and perfected his temporary body.
This time, he made his body bigger and more flexible, added many tentacles and several sets of propellers, and made the inside of his body hollow, leaving many water outlets.
The hollow body and these water outlets could balance the pressure inside and outside of his body, so that he wouldn't be crushed by the water pressure of the deep sea. And when needed, these water outlets could also become spray holes, through which he could change the direction of his body in an emergency and adjust the posture of his body.
In a fierce battle, this was very necessary.
Sui Xiong remembered that in a famous series of Japanese anime, those powerful robots that fought fiercely were all equipped with several "posture control nozzles." To put it bluntly, it seemed to be something like this.
It was said that the anime series was very technical, and even robots could be built according to the design (powerful or not). So, these spray holes should really be useful, right?
Anyway, it wasn't troublesome, so it didn't matter if he didn't use them.
The hollow body also had another use, which was to store things.
The single-horned whale had left behind many spoils of war, including a sharp horn that contained a powerful cold power, a gem that emitted a dense cold air in its brain, bones that were unexpectedly strong, and skin that was still tough even after death.
Sui Xiong made full use of these resources to rebuild his body, but even so, not all of them were used up. The rest was tied up and stored in his body.
While other people carried their backpacks on their bodies, he hid his backpack in his stomach. This could be considered an innovation.
After he was ready, he plunged into the deep sea and swam toward the trench in the giant whale's memory.
The deep sea was gloomy and deep, and there was almost no light at all. It was not safe to travel at the bottom of the sea. In the giant whale's memory, it had encountered danger at the bottom of the sea more than once, so although it knew that the trench was a treasure land that could greatly enhance its strength, it had not been there many times.
After all, although whales were called fish, they were not fish. They still had to surface to breathe. This giant whale was very different from the whales on Earth in terms of fighting power and intelligence, but it was quite similar in this respect.
After inhaling enough air, it could dive for a long time at a stretch, but if it encountered a battle at the bottom of the sea and was entangled, it would be very dangerous.
Sui Xiong did not worry about this. Souls did not need to breathe air, and jellyfish did not have the concept of breathing at all — not to mention that this was a dead jellyfish. Sui Xiong himself did not understand why its body, which was obviously dead, did not rot, but was still alive and kicking. In short, he did not have to worry about the lack of oxygen when diving, and could dive as long as he wanted.
Jellyfish did not have the ability to see in the dark, but Sui Xiong, whose strength had greatly increased, could sense the surrounding situation with his soul, which was more convenient than the giant whale. Except for when he needed to go up to the surface to look for food, he had been swimming in the deep sea the rest of the time, looking for the treasure land in the giant whale's memory.
Along the way, he encountered deep-sea giant beasts several times, but no more battles broke out. Sui Xiong's body was extremely strong after the transformation, enough to make those giant beasts think twice before attacking, and Sui Xiong did not want to fight with them for territory. Every time he saw them, he would take a detour, so they would not be provoked.
After swimming like this for a long time, he finally came to the trench.
It was a strange sea shrouded in blue and white light, located at the bottom of a shallow wide crack at the bottom of the sea.
The light was not strong, but it was so cold that even the soul felt cold. The rugged rocks at the bottom of the sea were covered with a thick layer of frost. Looking carefully, the blue and white light turned out to be from this layer of frost.
"What the hell is going on?" Sui Xiong muttered, carefully stretched out a tentacle that he had prepared in advance, and tried to touch the glowing frost.
That tentacle immediately turned into a popsicle, and the ice quickly spread along the tentacle to his body. Fortunately, he had prepared for it. This tentacle was not only much longer than other tentacles, but also had several weak points, which were cut off at once.
A long popsicle slowly fell in the sea and fell on the glowing frost. It did not bounce up, but silently turned into powder, sprinkling on the ground.
Sui Xiong's scalp was numb, and he subconsciously moved away from this damn place.
No wonder the giant whale knew that it could enhance its magic power here, but did not dare to come often. This place was too scary! If he was not careful, he could lose his life!
After hesitating for a while, Sui Xiong finally approached the blue and white ice trench again.
It was indeed dangerous here, but as long as he was careful and kept a sufficient distance, the danger was actually controllable. Just like in the world before he came to this world, everyone knew that electricity was dangerous, but no one did not use it.
"Okay, this distance is about right." After getting a little closer, Sui Xiong did not want to go any further. Using several sets of propellers to rotate in various directions, he stopped his body steadily in the water, and began to try to absorb the cold air.
This was not easy, after all, he was not the giant whale that could naturally control the power of ice. But as the saying goes, hard work pays off. He did not know how much time he spent, but he was finally able to absorb the cold air smoothly and store it in his body.
This process was a little slow, but fortunately, he was getting more and more familiar with it, and the speed at which he absorbed the cold air was getting faster and faster. After some time, he suddenly found that a gem similar to the one in the head of the giant whale had condensed in the body of the body of the jellyfish.
"This … could it be the legendary 'magic core'? Or something like 'magic core'? So, this jellyfish of mine has evolved into a magical beast? " Sui Xiong felt a little funny. A body that had died long ago could not only be alive and kicking, but could also evolve into a magical beast … This world was really strange!
After condensing the gem, which could probably be called a magic core, the speed at which it absorbed the cold air increased significantly. As a large amount of cold air was absorbed and stored in the gem, Sui Xiong began to think about how to use the cold air.
The giant whale had three ways to use the cold air. The first way was to turn the cold air into a line and transmit it along the sea, which could freeze the enemy. It had used this method when it had plotted against Sui Xiong.
The second way was to spread the cold air around its body and form a layer of frost armor. When it had fought with Sui Xiong, it did not have time to use this method — of course, even if it had, it would not have helped.
The last way was to release a large amount of cold air stored in the gem all at once and completely freeze a large area of the sea around it. This kind of freezing was controllable. Once the giant whale was out of danger, it could absorb the cold air and easily thaw the ice around it, which was very convenient for it to escape or counterattack.
However, this method was also very costly. Once it was used, it would completely lose the power of ice for a short period of time, so the giant whale had always used this method to save its life.
In Sui Xiong's opinion, these three methods were good, but they were still too simple.
He used the experience of his "previous life" for reference, and through repeated experiments, he came up with another two methods.
The first method was to make sharp blades out of ice. These blades could be used as knives, spears, swords, and halberds, or they could also be turned into claws and teeth.
The second method was to restrain the power of ice so that it would not be turned into ice and would be directly bombarded. Once it hit the enemy, the enemy's body would start to freeze from the inside out. Although it consumed a lot of energy, it was far more powerful than the ice line of the giant whale. It was a killer move.
Based on the principle that "even a dog should have a name", Sui Xiong named the five moves, or magic spells, respectively.
Freezing Ray, Frost Armor, Big Ice Seal, Ice Blade, and Ice Bombardment.
To be honest, these names were not cool at all. Even Sui Xiong, who had come up with these names, felt that they were stupid.
The names were stupid, as long as the methods were useful.
All of these moves consumed the power of ice. With the formation of the magic core, Sui Xiong was able to continuously accumulate the power of ice. However, relying on his own daily accumulation, he could not accumulate much power of ice. Compared with the speed of absorption and accumulation in the Ice Trench, it was a far cry from the speed of absorption and accumulation.
After experimenting, he also confirmed an interesting thing: In this world, the lower he went, the higher the concentration of magic power, or in other words, the faster he could absorb and accumulate the Power of Frost. The higher he went, the lower the concentration of magic power. But once he came out of the water, the situation was reversed. The higher he went, the higher the concentration of magic, and the lower the concentration of magic.
In general, the concentration of magic on the surface of this world was the lowest. No wonder the fish and shrimps in the shallow water were so weak.
What a wonderful world!
After an unknown amount of time, Sui Xiong felt that he had almost absorbed the cold energy from the Ice Trench. No matter how much he absorbed, the magic core could not store any more, and it would only leak out like a leak. The cold energy that leaked out was not only not good for him, but would also hurt his body.
He knew that the time for cultivation was over, and now it was time for him to go to land and find people.
