Zixin continued to spend his days experimenting on his abilities, no longer fixated on one thing, he thought outside the box and let loose all his crazy thoughts. Some of them were successful while others were not. Of the successful ones, Zixin could transform into the insect and even retain the size of that insect if he wanted. He also found out that every time he transformed using female insects, he would have the male reproductive organs of the same species.
Another discovery was that he could actually transform any part of his body with his insects as long as it was the same organ for both human and Gu. For example, if Zixin wanted a bug mouth, only his mouth could change and no other part of his body would turn into a mouth. He could change the colour of his skin, thicken his skin like exoskeleton armour, boost in physical strength like ants, it was a lot and he was happy with his discoveries.
