Between the two superpowers, Lin Qianxuan chose Tier Three [Intelligence Enhancement] without hesitation.

After making the choice, the game character gains an additional superpower.

However, this superpower seems to be passive and does not have active effects, so Lin Qianxuan can only judge the level of enhancement through the game character's description of their feelings.

Upon entering the command, the game character begins to describe their feelings internally.

[In your perception, your reaction ability and thinking adaptability have significantly increased, your control over the body has also improved, and your overall strength has increased by at least three percent.]

Being exposed to the Dragon Scale Aura for nine hours, directly enhancing combat power by three percent, speaks for high efficiency.

Furthermore, the current level of talent sharing is still low; if it were higher, the magnitude of this enhancement might be even more exaggerated.

Lin Qianxuan continues to advance the storyline.

In the game, Zhang Juan came out of the bedroom midway to prepare some food for the game character and then returned to the room to heal.

Meanwhile, on the game character's side, Lin Qianxuan noticed that the rate of increase in adaptability slowed down considerably.

From an increase of around 11% per hour, it decreased to 7% per hour.

Is it because of obtaining the superpower that adaptability to the current extreme environment has strengthened?

Following this logic, does it mean he can't rely on the same environment to continuously and rapidly acquire the same type of superpower to enhance a certain aspect of capability, and it requires diversifying challenges to quickly obtain new superpowers, or increasing the intensity is necessary?

Although it seems this will increase the difficulty of the game a bit, the problem isn't very significant.

Lin Qianxuan can still easily come up with ways to continuously increase environmental pressure on the game character.

The simplest method is to impose a layer of pressure on the whole body using Divine Energy.

His Divine Energy has no upper limit and will improve in quality with the enhancement in his Refining God Cultivation.

Theoretically, this pressure will continuously increase.

The rate of acquiring adaptability will not diminish due to acquiring new superpowers.

(Operate and condense Divine Energy, artificially create a pressure environment on oneself, reach the limits of personal endurance, allow for damage but keep from serious injury, maintain injuries within a ten-hour span that can be fully healed through Elixirs and other means within one hour....)

Lin Qianxuan entered a relatively complex command, and then in the game, apart from being enveloped by Dragon Scale Golden Light, he was also surrounded by another layer of red light.

A huge amount of Divine Energy was compressed and refined through myriad phenomena, and then further compressed using the Rising Sun Stepping Technique into meridians and throughout the body, creating significant pressure.

Even with the game character's current physique, it's evident that his skin surface starts to show blood streaks, caused by ruptured capillaries.

But simultaneously, countless Spiritual Liquid surges out from the myriad phenomena, enveloping the game character, and begins to quickly heal the injuries.

....

Lin Qianxuan advanced the storyline by another hour.

Then he saw the game character's adaptability increased by 32%.

An extreme environment achieved under multiple means of enhancement allowed the game character's adaptability to increase rapidly.

After another two hours, the game character received a new choice.

[Over the long period, you have adapted to the current environment, and your Evolutionary Body has undergone a new evolution. It will grant you a new superpower to help you better survive in the current environment.]

[Please choose one of the following two superpowers to load onto the Evolutionary Body.]

[Self-healing Enhancement (Tier Three): Your body's cell division speed and self-healing ability are enhanced, and by consuming large amounts of accumulated energy, you can rapidly repair your body damage.]

[Divine Energy Adaptation (Tier Three): The damage caused by Divine Energy to you will significantly decrease.]

"Both options are superpowers, seems like it's always fixed at two choices, and won't present more choices."

Upon seeing the two options, Lin Qianxuan deduced a key piece of information.

Then he carefully examined the situations of the two superpowers.

Perhaps due to the environment being more extreme, both superpowers this time are Tier Three.

Both have the ability to enhance the game character's adaptability to the current environment.

The former ensures the game character won't be worn down by the environment through enhanced self-healing ability.

The latter directly adapts to Divine Energy, reducing its destructive extent on the self.

Considering the acquisition of adaptability, Lin Qianxuan believes he should choose the former.

Although both would enhance adaptability in the current environment and lower the efficiency of acquiring adaptability, the former targets the game character itself, while the latter targets the Divine Energy.

If this superpower's enhancement is exceptionally significant, the game character would have to seek other means to brave challenges.

Lin Qianxuan clicks the mouse, directly choosing the first superpower.

After acquiring the Tier Three [Self-healing Enhancement] superpower, the blood streaks on the game character began to disappear at a visible speed, and shortly after, the injuries fully healed.

Being a Tier Three superpower, its strength is indeed remarkable.

Even if the game character obtains Tier Three superpowers effortlessly, in this world, it already makes them a person among elites.

Across the entire Supreme Star, among the population of over 21 billion, the number of people with Tier Three superpowers is less than five hundred million.

Simply put, the game character's acquisition of superpowers twice directly surpasses ninety-seven percent of people.

In Upper City, he's undoubtedly part of the elite class.

In Lower City, the general leader of a region with a population of tens of million would generally hold this level of strength.

This demonstrates the great talent.

After the game character obtains new superpowers in the game, the acquisition of adaptability distinctly decreases.

The original efficiency of 32% per hour was reduced to 25%.

This reduction wasn't particularly significant, so Lin Qianxuan directly increased the strength of his game character to restore efficiency.

But this wasn't the limit, either.

After all, Lin Qianxuan's plan was based on keeping the game character in perfect condition.

If he didn't consider the condition of the game character and directly inflicted some injuries, like losing a limb, he could certainly improve the adaptation efficiency significantly.

However, he knows nothing about future events in the game related to Zhang Juan, and information can't be obtained through the Eyes of the Muddled Heaven, so he didn't dare to gamble for now.

It's essential to gather more information carefully during the first playthrough; he doesn't want to be dead on the spot before even reaching the Supreme Star battle.

Lin Qianxuan continued advancing the game progression and quickly reached the third day of the character's journey.

During this process, he acquired some superpowers.

As expected, they were all Tier Three.

Some increased the control over divine energy, others enhanced cellular energy acquisition, and some heightened the character's pain tolerance to improve endurance capability.

In summary, the superpowers either improved the character's natural recovery and endurance or enhanced divine energy itself.

Both directions allowed the character to survive divine energy's harm more easily.

However, for Lin Qianxuan, this wasn't entirely a good thing.

Due to concerns of divine energy losing efficacy, he mostly chose superpowers targeting the character's own body.

Now, the character's overall recovery capability was increased by more than 20%.

With his already impressive recovery capabilities, enhancing further to this extent was indeed astonishing.

Re-growing a severed finger wouldn't take more than a few hours.

He felt that if this continued, his self-harming speed might not keep pace with the recovery rate.

Lin Qianxuan advanced the game plot again, at which point Zhang Juan rarely stepped out of the room in the game.

She sat opposite the character, slowly speaking.

[Zhang Juan (looking at you, somewhat hesitant): I have some matters to attend to, but I can't take action right now...]

Perhaps because she had figured something out, she began actively seeking help from the game character.

Instead of stubbornly supporting herself and avoiding bothering the character like before.

[Lin Qianxuan (smiling): Sister Juan, your matters are mine too. Whatever it is, just tell me, I'll go through fire and water for you.]

[Zhang Juan (smiling, shaking her head slightly): It's not that dramatic, just some small issues. If it doesn't work out, I should be able to handle them now.]

[Lin Qianxuan (nodding): Just order me, Sister Juan.]

[Zhang Juan (nodding): I'm going to trouble you, and by the way, your elixirs are very useful to me, thank you.]

[Lin Qianxuan (pretending to be dissatisfied): Sister Juan, aren't we close enough to say thank you? What about sharing joys and bearing hardships together?]

[Zhang Juan (smiling bitterly): You still remember that!]

[Lin Qianxuan (seriously): How could I forget? I'll remember it for a lifetime!]

Zhang Juan seemed a bit lost in thought, with a slightly complex expression, seemingly deeply touched.

[Your words made Zhang Juan recall past events with you, touching her soft heart, as if she saw the figure of the past in you again.]

[Zhang Juan's current String of Destiny connection rate is 23%.]

[Zhang Juan (extending her hand to stroke your head but hesitating seeing her palm covered with strange keratin, retracting her hand)]

[Lin Qianxuan (grabbing Zhang Juan's hand and placing it on his head)]

[Zhang Juan (gently stroking your hair, smiling slightly): You've grown up. Now it's the younger brother's turn to protect the older brother!]

[Lin Qianxuan (steadily looking at Zhang Juan): Isn't that how it should be?]

[Zhang Juan (without hesitation turning around): Let's go, little brother!]

[Lin Qianxuan (following): Yes, big brother!]

[You and Zhang Juan set off together, heading to a factory.]

In the scene, Zhang Juan and the game character boarded a shuttle together, arriving at a massive factory.

Entering alone required numerous security checks, and there were many weapon-wielding patrols, indicating very tight security.

[Zhang Juan (explaining to you): This is one of my factories in Upper City, where Searl Metal is produced. It's a crucial superconducting material and quite valuable. However, a traitor leaked my formula and took away a batch of my core staff. I'm here because my people captured that traitor and want me to deal with it, but my danger anticipation superpower sensed this isn't simple, so I brought you along.]

"Danger anticipation superpower? Sensing danger beforehand? How is that evolved? By constantly being plotted against or staying in unknown dangerous environments?"

Seeing this, Lin Qianxuan felt Zhang Juan's story might be far more complex than what he read online.

After docking the shuttle outside a massive warehouse, Zhang Juan and the game character disembarked.

Several members were already waiting outside.

Seeing Zhang Juan, they all approached to greet her.

The man wearing glasses among them seemed to be the leader and reported to Zhang Juan.

[Yanos (lowering his head): Boss, the person is caught, and the faction that took the formula has also been dealt with. The traitor is in the warehouse, and after knowing you were coming to handle her personally, she's attempted suicide several times, but we haven't allowed her to succeed.]

[Zhang Juan (sneering): Death? Not that easy! But I am curious, how did she dare to take this step!]
