Sky Arena.
Kevin looked up at the exaggerated building that seemed to have no end in sight.
"This thing is only the fourth tallest in the world," he couldn't help but exclaim. He remembered that the tallest building in his previous life didn't seem as tall as this one.
The technology in this world is really strange.
But after all, it's another world. Even the overall quality of ordinary people in this world is stronger than in his previous world.
I have to say, it truly lives up to its name as a gigantic arena and fighting holy land.
The surroundings were filled with all kinds of martial artists.
There were those dressed as warrior monks, boxers, swordsmen, all sorts of different people.
And there were also Nen Users interspersed among them, though their numbers were relatively small.
Under Bisky's tutelage, he had already learned how to determine if someone was a Nen User.
It was by observing whether the aura above their head was naturally dissipating upwards, but he personally felt that such a judgment standard was definitely not rigorous.
Because he himself could absolutely disguise the manifestation of his aura to appear like that of an ordinary person, and he constantly kept his aura dissipating upwards in this manner.
With his control ability, he could even make it appear as if his aura was dissipating, as if he had an antenna on top of his head, but in reality, his aura was still firmly maintaining "Ten."
He walked silently on the street.
Kevin began to ponder.
He was no longer ignorant about the so-called Nen Ability; in fact, his knowledge in this area already surpassed that of most Nen Users.
These were Bisky's exact words.
Because most Nen Users came from unconventional backgrounds, having their Nen Ability awakened through various accidents.
They didn't even understand the Four Major Principles or the Seven Great Techniques.
However, Kevin was more concerned about his own situation.
Although Bisky didn't explicitly state it, all the Nen Ability knowledge she had been teaching him heavily leaned towards one aspect.
Restrictions and Limitations.
Post-mortem Nen.
The former was in hopes that he would be prepared when constructing his Nen Ability.
And the so-called Restrictions and Limitations were actually a form of restraint, adding a restriction to one's actions and Nen Ability, and then strengthening other effects of one's own ability.
In Bisky's words, it was to strengthen it exponentially, but she told him not to try it easily.
Because such a thing cannot be restricted just by wanting to; it requires past experiences, something that can only be achieved through an obsession.
More importantly, Bisky knew that Kevin was not a person with any obsession.
But it would still be used when constructing a Nen Ability, because sometimes the subconscious would automatically add such enhancements when constructing a Nen Ability.
However, what he should pay more attention to was the latter.
Post-mortem Nen.
It is also related to human will, or obsession. A deep obsession will transform into Post-mortem Nen after death.
This can happen not only to Nen Users, but even ordinary people can produce such a thing, though the harm is not as great as with Nen Users.
Without a doubt.
A Moment of Dream was a Post-mortem Nen.
Through the fragmented memories he understood and the records from the laboratory before, he knew that he once had a maniacal love for pharmaceutical production.
It was precisely this almost insane hobby that allowed his original self to awaken a Specialization Nen Ability, and it was highly related to pharmaceutical production.
This also confirmed what Bisky said, that Nen Ability is something generated by a person's past experiences and personal will.
And his poor physical learning ability might be related to it, or perhaps it was a side effect?
Kevin couldn't judge.
Post-mortem Nen becomes stronger after death, which is a manifestation of obsession. Therefore, the One Moment's Dream he now controls has changed compared to what was in his memories, and it has changed for the better.
But such a change also brought some disadvantages for the living.
If his potions were used by others, they would cause side effects.
The stronger the effect of the potion, the stronger the side effects.
Of course, the side effects would not outweigh the effects of the medicine.
However, this situation did not exist when he used it himself.
Overall, it was still a "golden finger"-like existence, a good change just like his inhuman aura manipulation.
While thinking, he returned to the house he rented.
One of the rooms had been converted into a basic laboratory, and the shelves next to it were filled with various relatively precious "materials" brought from his luggage.
Kevin naturally couldn't take all the materials left in the house before; he only selected the expensive and difficult-to-obtain ones, while the others were inexpensive and easily bought with money.
"Now, let me understand you more deeply."
Kevin rubbed his hands, his face showing an excited and expectant expression.
During the first week, he didn't use it rashly, only trying it a few times before stopping.
After all, he didn't understand it.
There was even less opportunity during training; Bisky's training, it had to be said, was truly hellish.
He spread his hands.
A pharmaceutical table with three scales appeared.
He took out an empty potion tube and inserted it into the circular hole in the base below.
According to the formula in his memory, he selected three ingredients.
copper scale: Sun Red Flower (dried)
A herb that can excite muscles, not too expensive, and can be bought in large herbal stores.
Silver scale: Fire Duck Heart and Liver (fresh)
The internal organs of a creature called a Fire Duck, which is an aggressive wild duck, easily found by lakeside in the wild, and has the effect of strengthening the body.
He had just bought it outside.
gold scale: Evil Tiger Bone (powder)
The tiger bone of a Magical Beast—the Ferocious Tiger, which can accelerate heart rate, speed up blood return, increase adrenaline, and strengthen muscles.
The three ingredients were placed on the three scales according to their different attributes.
The ingredient to be placed on the gold scale was the main ingredient, and the effect of the potion would be based on it.
The ingredient to be placed on the silver scale was the auxiliary ingredient, adding additional effects to the potion or strengthening the main effect.
The ingredient to be placed on the copper scale was the fusion agent, responsible for the fusion of the main and auxiliary ingredients, but the selection of this ingredient was the most troublesome. If an unsuitable one was chosen, the resulting potion could be poison or ineffective wastewater.
Moreover, the materials placed must be one's own; whether it is one's own depends entirely on the subconscious, so don't try to deceive yourself.
Everything was ready.
Text appeared on the base; it did not have this ability before, only acquiring it after death.
"Increase muscle strength, increase visible aura, accelerate the consumption of stamina and aura."
Kevin entered a state of "Zetsu," and all his visible aura surged into the pharmaceutical table.
Based on the strength of the potion being refined, the required latent aura and the time invested fluctuated.
Visible aura, i.e., maximum output aura.
Latent aura, which is the total amount of aura maintained within the body.
To give an easy-to-understand example, a person is like a water gun.
Latent aura is how much water the tank can hold, and visible aura is how much water can be shot out when firing.
The strength of this potion was not strong, and the time it took was not long either.
The time required for pharmaceutical production was one hour.
