Flight is a yearning dream for many.

From this yearning, humanity created airplanes.

Bi Xiao's requirements for flying are extraordinarily high; he needs the ability to fly to address one of his last weaknesses, aerial combat capabilities.

During his battle with the Blood God Deacon, Bi Xiao used the most rational approach, employing a psychic storm and psychic bomb to prevent the Blood God from using blood magic. Furthermore, he maintained intense pressure, preventing the Blood God from escaping his attack range and using his flying abilities.

After all, once the Blood God took to the air, if he chose to flee, it would be quite difficult for Bi Xiao to intercept him.

If he had the ability to fly, the outcome could be entirely different.

He would then be able to toy with the Blood God without any restraint.

Moreover, the kind of flying Bi Xiao desires would ideally be like that of Captain Marvel, capable of traveling through space for interstellar journeys.

Of course, these are concerns for later.

First, he tested his own initial flying capability.

It involved using his psychic power, comparable now to that of Professor Charles, to envelop and cover his body, forming a shuttle shape around it to minimize air resistance.

Gradually, he began to float, pulling his body into the air through psychic shapes, reaching heights of one hundred meters, two hundred meters, three hundred meters, five hundred meters, three thousand meters, and tens of thousands of meters.

From high above, he looked down at the diminishing ground.

Psychokinesis can manipulate matter, including human bodies, and Bi Xiao's body was no exception.

With a thought, Bi Xiao's body vanished from ten thousand meters in the air, speeding towards the distance at a very fast rate. The shuttle-shaped psychic shield around his body reduced air resistance, continuously increasing his speed.

He circled thirty kilometers in the sky.

But eventually, he slowly floated back to the original lakeside.

His toes gently touched the ground, and his black sweater, pants, and even his shoes were undamaged despite the high-speed flight.

"Too slow."

Standing by the lake, Bi Xiao frowned. He was not satisfied with the psychic flying mode he just used. While he managed to fly, the speed disappointed him.

His psychokinetic power is strong, capable of easily manipulating tens of tons.

However, his body density exceeds that of steel, and while it's not too taxing to pull his body into flight, the speed could not be increased significantly.

Simply put, he can fly and even reach subsonic or sonic speeds, but the speed of his mental information processing is too slow for someone soon to reach a level akin to that of a demigod.

In terms of flight speed, he still falls short of the current Thor.

Even though Thor is augmented by the power of Mjolnir, this remains a critical weakness for Bi Xiao.

And this concerns only flying; in terms of agility, there is still much to be desired.

Thus, flying through psychokinesis is temporarily shelved, or perhaps it could still be developed differently. He then turned his attention to magic, a form of energy, immediately reminding Bi Xiao of Captain Marvel, Carol.

Her flying speed reaches near the speed of light, and in her Binary form, she can even move faster than light.

Of course, how she achieves this is unclear to Bi Xiao, but at least it gives him a direction.

The key might also lie in magic.

As for how to achieve flight through magic, this would require a massive amount of engineering, and Bi Xiao gradually began experimenting by the lake, starting with the simplest idea of creating a pair of wings on his back with magic.

During flight, by changing the shape of the wings and constructing something like jet nozzles, he increased propulsion by releasing magic.

Indeed, the speed increased, but this still did not change the agility in the air.

After two days, development on flying was temporarily shelved, and Bi Xiao would focus on developing magic, which is fundamental to everything.

As for not fully mastering the flying skill, Bi Xiao was not discouraged. He has plenty of time to master this ability, and he thought to himself, being able to fly is great, but on the ground, a compressed magic beam is sufficient, and if not, then resort to prince tactics, making it impossible for the enemy to take to the air. Of course, this was just a jest.

The process of developing magic and flying was very interesting for Bi Xiao, far from boring, because the joy brought by achieving the results he desired was beyond everything else.

In the remaining time, aside from a trip back to his apartment in Queens, he returned to the lakeside to continue working on using magic.

A month quietly passed.

Until a phone call interrupted his solitary life.

His order had been completed.

That day, Bi Xiao drove to the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters. The school during the day offered a different kind of scenery. Just as he arrived, Storm, Ororo, was already waiting.

It must be said, the black beauty with white hair was indeed very beautiful and had a great figure, which was a delight to the eye.

Bi Xiao got out of the car, and Storm approached.

"Mr. John, welcome back to the academy."

"Thank you."

"Please follow me, Hank is making final adjustments to the second-generation fighter." Storm said gently, leading Bi Xiao to the vast lawn where the Blackbird second-generation was parked.

Upon reaching the lawn, they saw the quiet Blackbird fighter jet parked there.

Its beautiful streamlined body and black coating deeply attracted attention, and Bi Xiao was no exception. After all, every man dreams of owning his own fighter jet.

Storm and Bi Xiao walked up the metal steps that opened from the cockpit into the cabin and arrived at the cockpit, where they saw Beast, Hank, wearing a woolen sweater and glasses, making some adjustments.

His expression was serious and focused, and he did not even notice their arrival until all the adjustments were completed. Only then did Hank take a deep breath and notice Storm and Bi Xiao standing behind him.

"Congratulations, you now have your own private plane, Mr. John."

Hank was also pleased with the second-generation fighter he had built, speaking with ease and pleasure.

"Thank you, may I try it?"

"Of course, but you'll need to familiarize yourself with the controls here first." This advanced fighter wasn't too difficult to operate, quite simple in fact, and Hank guided Bi Xiao through all the equipment and buttons inside the plane.
