A few months passed by after Clay's little trip to the Abyss and he already forgot about his findings there because of his busy schedule. In the morning, he would train his control over copious amounts of energy and ki, refine it and saturate himself in it without needing to powerup with it anymore as it slowly becomes his natural and basic ki within himself.
In other words, his base form would no longer be the black-haired, black-eyed Clay, but the ruby-haired, ruby-eyed god-mode. Unlike the original Saiyan who utilized the effect without transforming, which was called God-like Saiyan, Clay did not need that kind of restriction and fully embraced the form before learning to fully control the ki that now was flowing within himself constantly. It wasn't merely a ki that he gathers and refines and stores within himself, but it totally replaced his mortal ki.
