Chapter 130: Developing a new skill

“It’s cold!” Myers shivered as a cold wind blew, and she couldn’t help but shrink her body as she hugged herself. She looked pitifully at him with a pair of big tearful eyes.

Her slender and delicate body was like a young piece of grass in the heavy snowstorm, looking very helpless.

Xiaya silently glanced at her, look at this brat acting pitiful, how could a Saiyan not withstand just this little amount of cold.

Towards her acting, he acted as if he didn’t see a thing. Xiaya looked away and said, “The gravity on this planet is quite suitable for our current strength. We shall train here for some time till we have become familiar with our strength before heading back.

Although training in the Gravity Machine would be just as effective, the space in the machine was too small for people at their level, making it impossible for them to do whatever they wanted and use their full strength.

In short, the machine was very effective at increasing stamina and physical strength, but it wasn’t as effective in improving combat proficiency and strength control capability.

When it comes to improving both combat proficiency and strength control, it requires a lot of actual combat and attacking with full strength. The small room in the Gravity Machine would not be able to withstand their power.

To the side, after seeing that her pitiful act couldn’t arouse his sympathy, Myers pursed her lips and helplessly answered, “Ok!”

Xiaya nodded, and also glanced at Xiling. After receiving her affirmative response, the three split up and began to train individually.

This time around, the results he gained on Planet Namek exceeded even Xiaya’s expectations. He was very satisfied with his battle power of 720,000, because he knew that Frieza only had 530,000 battle power in his normal state.

On top of that, the Instant Transmission skill could be used anytime and anywhere, and including the many other advantages, Xiaya wasn’t afraid of any other forces in the Milky Way Galaxy. Of course, this was only regarding his personal well being. As the leader of his race, he wanted to lead his people to freely thrive in the galaxy. For that, his strength right now was still somewhat lacking.

So Xiaya took a deep breath, and began to sort out and ponder over his strong and weak points.

First and foremost, his space-time ability. It was undoubtedly the most powerful trump card that he had. If necessary, he could use it to easily defeat someone more powerful than him and even kill them. However, despite such a convenient ability, Xiaya also knew the flaws that came with this space-time ability.

It was that this ability was way too convenient. So much so, that it would not let him to engage in a real battle and allow him to fight to his heart’s content!

Saiyans can only grow stronger through real battle! Victory or defeat is merely an outcome, and only through the process of fighting would a Saiyan grow non-stop. In this aspect, his space-time ability revealed its flaw.

The long-term reliance on this ability would only serve to make his strength stagnate, affecting even his foundation. The pros and cons naturally had to be considered. Moreover, when it comes to incredibly strong experts like Cooler, the ability not proved to be much effective. Because of this, in Xiaya’s heart, the space-time ability could only assist him occasionally.

He knew that he must create a skill that can truly display the advantages of his space-time ability.

Just like how Ki was utilized; Master Roshi developing the Kamehameha, Master Shen and his Dodon Ray, the Thunder Shock Surprise and Energy Blast from Master Mutaito hundreds of years ago, all which were popular in this world. Yet these skills could not compare with the Destructo Disc, Spirit Ball, and the Special Beam Cannon which were learned by the warriors during the later stages of Dragon Ball!

However, it at least indicated that the usage of Energy Wave had been innovated and was consistently improved.

From training in Ki, Xiaya associated it with the development of ability skills. Maybe he can develop an auxiliary skill suitable for combat based off of his space-time ability. Which would not let his space-time ability to waste away, a castle in the midair*, nor would it affect his future growth.

[*Metaphor for useless]

Just as Myers had learned Planet Yardrat’s “Deflection Secret Skill”, it also brought upon inspiration to Xiaya.

Her “Deflection Secret Skill” was able to enhance her defensive ability by diverting her opponent’s attack through space, thus achieving it’s purpose of improving defense. Plus, it mostly exhibited the usage of space ability’s function, giving Xiaya a very good example to work off of.

Is it possible that he can also develop such a practical skill through his space-time ability?

As a matter of fact, Xiaya once used a similar method while fighting Cooler a year ago. From one point of view, his ability did not affect his opponent’s attacks, but it buffed him by increasing his body’s overall movement speed and physical strength.

In battle, there were five important factors that would determine the outcome of a battle. Situational awareness, attack speed, attack power, resistance, as well as recovery. As long as his space-time ability could increase any one of them, it can be considered a success.

After having this thought and determining his line of thinking, the next step would to put it into practice!

“If I can rely on the space-time ability for assistance, it would be an extremely good plan!” Xiaya chuckled. He pondered, and gradually began to put into effect his ideas.

To change the space-time ability into an auxiliary skill, it was simple to say but difficult to actually do. Just for developing and testing this skill alone, Xiaya would have to spend a long period of time.

One month later.

The embryonic form of his first skill finally took shape. It was a skill he derived from Myers’ “Deflection Secret Skill”. He called it “Shifting”

Essentially what it did was to cover the surface of his skin with a thin layer of space-time membrane, as if he was wearing some piece of protective clothing.

When an enemy’s attack hit him, he could cover his skin with this thin layer of space-time force as an immediate response. Using this skill, he could deflect an energy attack that was 30% of his own power in the form of space radiation, thereby increasing his physical defense.

The clouds are light and the sun was hidden.

A snowy white mist coloured the chasm between heaven and earth.

Xiaya was floating in the air six to seven meters above the ground. Due to the cold weather, the white battle armour on his body was frozen and was covered with a layer of frost. By merely shaking it would cause small ice crystals to fall to the ground.

“Ha!”

Xiaya stretched out his hand and a brightly flickering energy ball suddenly condensed in his palm and shot out. Its deep ocean blue color was somewhat dark, and the Ki on the surface of the energy ball producing a low “zizi” sounds.

This energy ball was seriously condensed by Xiaya. After such powerful compression, I’m afraid that it’s might was even more terrifying than Frieza’s ‘produced in an instant’ Planet Destroying Ball!

Once it hits the ground, the entire planet would turn into universe dust in a flash!

It’s immense energy was frightening, but Xiaya didn’t seem to care the least. His palm just casually flipped, and he threw the big deep blue energy ball directly into the sky. The earth-shattering aura emminated out in all directions like surging waves.

At this time, Xiaya faintly smiled as his silhouette flashed and suddenly appeared in front of the energy ball. He did not put up any sort of defense, and he took the brunt of the energy ball’s fierce attack with a loud shout!

The frightening energy that was enough to destroy a planet exploded out in an instant.

Rumble!

The majestic and frightening energy scattered in all directions, turning into a huge ball of flame reaching several kilometers in the sky. The clouds scattered in a flash, and an earth-shaking aura was emitted from the point of the explosion, mixing together with the immense power.

Invisible waves of power rippled out in concentric circles along the spatial network. The entire icy planet even slightly trembled!

As the smoke began to dissipate, and vision began to clear, a young boy could be seen standing upright completely unscathed in the air. The explosion that was enough to destroy an entire planet could not cause any harm to him at all.

Xiaya patted his pale white chest that had been burned by the energy bomb, eyebrows furrowed slightly before he quickly relaxed.

“This ‘Shifting’ skill can at most divert energy attacks equivalent to 30% of my strength. Furthermore, it seems there is an upper limit to how much it can withstand!”

Xiaya seriously pondered this issue. He knew that there was an upper limit to the endurance capability of space. Once the energy exceeded the endurance capability of space, it would shatter. But it wouldn’t for a long while before he had to worry about this problem.

He now has 720,000 battle power, which meant that even if an enemy with the battle power of 240,000 attacked with full strength, he would only have to use this skill to be fully immune to their attack.

Naturally, the premise is that opponent’s attack had to be pure energy!
