Syd looked at the levitation flight experience bar.

[Ability: Levitation Flight (1988/2000) Level Four] (Sounds better than floating)

During this time, although he hadn't intentionally upgraded his levitation flight, the experience points had been increasing rapidly due to the nature of the ability, and it was nearly at level five.

"I wonder what will happen when levitation flight reaches level five?"

With curiosity and anticipation, Syd floated in the air, quietly waiting for the levitation flight experience points to fill up.

[Levitation Flight Experience +1]

[Levitation Flight Experience +1]

Accompanied by the final prompt sound, the data for levitation flight in front of Syd changed, and at the same time, he felt a significant transformation within his body.

[Ability: Levitation Flight (Max/Max) Level Five]

"Level five is the limit?"

Syd frowned slightly and thought, "Is this the limit, or do I need some specific conditions to continue upgrading?"

If level five was the limit, then it felt a bit weak.

Aside from the numerical change, the photon energy within Syd's body also became more concentrated and pure. Meanwhile, the sunlight overhead continuously replenished the emptiness inside him.

Judging by the momentum, reaching level five in levitation flight significantly increased his photon energy.

As for the specifics, he needed to wait until his photon energy was fully restored to be sure.

With these thoughts, Syd's eyes showed anticipation as he began testing the speed of level five levitation flight.

In an empty grove under the sunlight, his floating figure suddenly moved, disappearing from his original spot in the next second.

Boom!

A massive sonic boom sounded.

In the blink of an eye, Syd appeared far from where he started.

"Have I reached the speed of sound?"

Listening to the echoing sonic boom, he felt quite pleased.

"I wonder what multiple of the speed of sound this is—one, or two?"

"I also wonder if my current speed can surpass those missiles..."

Syd pondered, feeling a bit uncertain.

However, even if he couldn't surpass those missiles, it would still be much harder for them to catch up with him than before.

After testing his speed, Syd began testing his constant flight state.

In constant flight state, using levitation flight consumed almost no photon energy, but before, once he exceeded a certain altitude, the photon energy consumption returned to normal. He wondered how it would be now.

With curiosity, Syd moved. Accompanied by a sonic boom, his figure quickly ascended into the sky.

Three hundred meters...

One thousand meters...

Five thousand meters...

Ten thousand meters...

When he reached ten thousand meters, Syd finally felt the constant flight state disappear, and the photon energy consumption returned to normal.

Although he couldn't maintain the constant state indefinitely, which was slightly disappointing, the improvement from level four to level five in constant flight state was significant, and he was quite satisfied.

After all, he could still consume photon energy to continue flying; it would just require more energy.

A layer of golden sunlight shone down.

At this moment, Syd stood above the clouds. Below his feet was a layer of milky-white clouds, resembling cream or white cotton candy.

Stepping on them felt like walking in a heavenly palace, and with the golden sunlight illuminating the clouds, it was a breathtaking sight.

Of course, if he ignored the thin, suffocating air and the subzero temperatures, it would be even more perfect.

Even with a level three god's body, Syd still felt a bit uncomfortable.

Or rather, if not for the level three god's body, he would have frozen to death or suffocated by now.

"It seems that a level three god's body is still a bit low."

Syd pondered.

At an altitude of ten thousand meters, it was already like this. If he went higher, a level three god's body definitely wouldn't hold up.

"I wonder at what level of the god's body I could survive in outer space?"

Syd felt unsure.

He remembered that Thor had once been exposed to outer space and survived for a while due to his strong Asgardian physique.

As for staying there indefinitely, he wasn't sure.

For instance, Ebony Maw, one of Thanos' subordinates, could control floating objects elegantly, like an alternative Magneto. However, he ended up freezing to death in outer space after the ship's hull was breached.

On the other hand, Thor floated in space for a while and could still open his eyes, showing the strength of Asgardian physiology, especially that of the royal family.

The Asgardian royal family's physique differed from that of ordinary Asgardians.

"If Thor can survive in space, there's no reason I can't. At least, I should be able to after reaching level five..."

Syd pondered.

For now, it was better to stay on the clouds. Going higher would not only consume photon energy to maintain flight but also endure increasingly harsh and cold environments, which he didn't want to suffer through.

However, although staying on the clouds was slightly uncomfortable, the sunlight was truly abundant.

At least, Syd felt that his photon energy was increasing much faster.

In the future, if he encountered cloudy or overcast weather, he could directly fly above the clouds to bask in the sun, indirectly reducing his development time.

While Syd floated quietly above the clouds, enjoying a one to two-hour sunbath, a commotion suddenly came from the distant clouds.

A large white passenger plane suddenly emerged from the clouds.

Looking at this slow-moving plane, Syd frowned slightly.

At the same time, someone on the plane noticed him.

In the endless expanse of white clouds, a black-clad humanoid figure standing on the clouds was impossible to miss.

"My God..."

"Look outside, there's someone standing there!"

A white man in his thirties pointed in shock at the distant black figure.

His words left the surrounding passengers and passing staff stunned, thinking this person must be crazy.

Given the conditions outside, how could anyone be standing there?

But when they looked over, they indeed saw a mysterious black-clad humanoid figure standing on the clouds, observing them like he was looking at a new toy.

The passengers widened their eyes, covering their mouths in shock.

Aliens?

Their first thought was UFOs or aliens, as such news was not uncommon here and appeared frequently.

But as they looked closely, they realized it was a human.

And from the appearance, the figure seemed somewhat familiar?
