57 Mysterious Martial Master (1/2)
”Ai? When did this newbie appear on the newbie rankings?”
”No, that's incorrect. Look carefully, he has already assembled primeval genes and had changed sets completely multiple times. If not, it would be impossible for him to kill the monsters so quickly.”
”How did he know of so many genetic formulas?”
...
There was a table of scores that recorded the numbers of enemy killed in the gene hunting ground. Right now on the newbie rankings, a virtual id named 'Wukong' rose up explosively in a straight line. Ranked #100 to #50 to #30, and very swiftly, his ranking arrived at the #10 rank.
Such a dazzling performance naturally attracted attention.
At the center of the gene hunting ground, there was a green mountain valley that had an elegant ambient, resembling paradise on earth. This place was different from the other hell-like place around the area.
This was the Wildgreen Immortal Valley of the gene hunting ground. It was like the safety zones of video games. In here, there was no need to worry about being attacked by the monsters in the hunting grounds. Humans could relax completely and enter virtual transactions to trade items with each other.
At this moment, a group of people gathered and was watching the change to the leaderboard as they marveled.
Genetic formula was the core element of genetic cultivation arts. Any types of genetic cultivation arts had to first start by developing the genetic formula, slowly evolving and transforming into a genetic tree before one could cultivate to the peak.
Hence, every single genetic formula represented a potential genetic cultivation art, a brand new pathway of cultivation.
When humans entered the gene hunting grounds, they would usually experiment with two or three genetic formulas which they were familiar with and choose a path suitable for themselves.
However, this 'Wukong' simply had a too outstanding performance. He would frequently change his genetic formulas and form primeval genes. What was he doing?
However, because this was a ground for the newbie, his ranking still didn't cause them to be too overly shocked.
What they were observing was how many types of genetic formula did this Wukong know exactly.
”Quick look, he changed his genetic formula again.” There was someone who had already set up an image projection and was directly streaming the feed live as Feng Lin killed monsters.
The others here quickly looked over as all of them gasped in surprise.
”Is this still considered killing monsters? He is simply sweeping them aside with impunity. What a monstrous speed!”
Right now, Feng Lin was in an underground world that appeared to be the core of an unknown planet. The atmosphere was filled with sulfur-inducing magma; the ground was overgrown with moss, black vines, and other underground plants which depended on geothermal energy to survive. This place was surrounded by a myriad of caves and resembled a maze.
Hiss, hiss, hiss...
A low-sounding hissing could be heard. Next, numerous gigantic black silhouettes as large as bulls crawled toward him with great speed. Their orange irises stared at Feng Lin, exuding a bloodthirsty aura, wanting to tear him into pieces and swallow him up.
The magma emitted a dark reddish light which shone upon their faces. These creatures were actually huge lizards that could walk upright. Their powerful hind legs enabled them to stand up straight. All of them bared their fangs and hissed at Feng Lin.
Even before Feng Lin could see their appearances clearly, this group of lizards lunged over like devils, closing in on him at the next instant.
Their claws were their sharpest weapons. As their mass opened, a disgusting bloody smell permeated through the air. Balls of red light could actually be seen down their throats. They were actually capable of breathing out fire.
”Air cannon!” Feng Lin stood at his original location calmly. He didn't even move a single step and didn't panic at all. All of a sudden, his palms blasted out as the air compressed rapidly, converging at the center of his palm. Very quickly, a ball of white light formed and instantly explode outward.
BOOM!
The violent airwaves erupted forth with an ear-piercing sound.
Waves of air that were visible to the naked eye gushed forth with tremendous might in all directions around Feng Lin. They were akin to walls as tough as iron that expanded outward, crushing his opponents.
With only 30 cm before their attacks reached him, the lizards were slammed onto the stone walls and transformed back into streams of data as they vanished.
With a single strike, the originally chaotic scene was now completely still because of Feng Lin's display of prowess.
Lizard Gene x3, Scale Gene x2, Sharp Claw Gene x2.
Feng Lin obtained another three kinds of basic genes once more. He kept them into his system inventory and stared silently at his currently equipped primeval genes. Among them, he could see a ball of spiraling air formed by many converging air currents, each spinning in different directions.
”As expected of a high-grade primeval gene! The power of the Air Cannon Gene is simply overwhelming!” Although this Air Cannon Gene was assembled by him, when Feng Lin used it to unleash its abilities, he was still deeply shocked by its might.
