”Spirit Gene.” Ji Yanran slowly spoke out both words.
”Spirit genes? You can obtain genes by eating spirits?” Han Sen's eyes opened wide, as this was the first time he had ever heard about something like this.
Ji Yanran laughed and said, ”No! You can't get gene points from eating spirits. Eating spirits is pointless.”
Han Sen did not respond, and quietly waited for Ji Yanran's explanation instead. The differences between the Second God's Sanctuary and the Third God's Sanctuary were too big.
”Annie, you should explain this.” Ji Yanran could not explain it herself as she hadn't been to the Third God's Sanctuary; thus, she feared she couldn't describe it as efficiently as she might like.
Annie nodded and said, ”The First God's Sanctuary and Second God's Sanctuary require you to kill creatures in order to increase your fitness. In the Third God's Sanctuary, aside from fitness, you must also open your gene locks.”
”There are two ways to unlock gene locks. First, is through the hyper geno art you learn. When your fitness gets stronger, and you practice more and more with the same skill, you can unlock higher tiers of your gene lock. This method requires the geno points of creatures. The higher your fitness is, the higher the chance you have of unlocking a gene lock. It also has something to do with your hyper geno art. Some skills have three to four locks, whereas others have eight to nine.”
Annie took a small break before continuing. Then, she said, ”The second method of unlocking a gene lock is to get spirit geno points from a spirit. If one spirit has unlocked three of its gene locks, you can receive a hundred spirit geno points off them. This will allow you to unlock one gene lock. It takes three hundred spirit geno points to unlock three locks. The power you get from unlocking gene locks will be the same as spirits receive. Your element and hyper geno art does not matter.”
”So, let me get this straight; if a spirit has unlocked nine gene locks, and grants me nine hundred gene points, that means I can be an elite with nine opened gene locks?” Han Sen was shocked by this vat of information he was receiving.
”That's how it is supposed to work, yes. But even if the spirit gave you a spirit geno point, you would need a fitness level capable of receiving that power. If it is too low, your body won't be able to contain the power. Your body will breakdown if it unlocks too many gene locks at once,” Ji Yanran explained.
”Spirit geno points are important to spirits, mind you. They won't randomly dish them out to humans,” Annie added.
”So, how can I obtain these spirit geno points?” Han Sen asked.
”You sign a contract with a spirit and become a member of their shelter's society. If you perform well, they can reward you with a fair amount of these spirit geno points.” Annie looked at Han Sen with a pause in her speech, but then continued by saying, ”Of course, if you are powerful enough, then you can take a spirit stone. If the spirit does not self-destruct and instead accepts you as its new master, you can command the spirit to provide you with all its spirit geno points.”
”But spirits would rarely accept masters in the Third God's Sanctuary, and the possibility of that happening is extremely low. And furthermore, low-level spirits aren't very useful. The tiers they can aid you in unlocking are too low,” Ji Yanran said.
”Would spirits really provide humans with spirit geno points?” Han Sen doubted this statement, finding it difficult to believe spirits were truly willing to provide humans—a different race—spirit geno points.
