Hu~ hu~ hu~!
Feng Lin panted, his breathing grew incomparably heavy.
Ever since he entered the Heaven Reaching Pagoda, this was the first time he was so fatigued to this extent.
As expected of the boss for the 9,000th level. This pagoda lord was a cultivator at the elite adept level. Feng Lin knew that he had truly met a formidable opponent.
This man was also walking on a paragon mythological path. Even if his opponent’s understanding of his mythological path might not be as deep as his, his opponent had the advantage of being a major realm higher. Just this fact alone was unimaginably terrifying.
Upon sensing the dried up genetic force in his body, Feng Lin knew that he was now like an empty lamp that was completely drained.
But as he looked at the dimmed sword light of his opponent, he knew that his opponent was the same as well.
The two of them glanced at each other.
Even at this stage, Lu Zhenyang’s gaze was as cold and sharp as a sword. But there was no longer any contempt in his eyes when he looked at Feng Lin.
Both of them were experts in their own right and naturally understood the situation now.
Victory and defeat lie in a single moment!
Lu Zhenyang lowered his eyes and no longer moved, just standing in the air. Although he wasn’t moving, the space around him seemed to be trembling.
With him in the center, an invisible sharpness emanated outward. Each wave of sharpness was like a real sword, slashing the void into pieces. Slashing sounds rang out as black scars visible to the naked eyes could be seen.
Lu Zhenyang simply stood there. It was like he became a heaven towering divine sword that hung suspended in the air. His aura continued to rise, striking fear in the hearts of everyone.
One sword, flying immortal!
All of a sudden, he moved. From a state of stillness to a state of extreme speed only took him an instant. His movements seemed slow to the spectators with his stance and move clearly displayed for all to see.
It was because his speed had reached the extreme limit, causing it to produce an illusion of slowness.
He became one with the sword and floated in the air. This divine sword came from the heavens, powerful and wondrous to the peak.
Everything the tip of the sword pointed to would freeze. There was no way for its target to evade.
In an instant, Feng Lin felt a sense of danger in his heart. Boundless killing intent descended on him.
Feng Lin also acted, yet his move was just an ordinary cudgel attack, cleaving right down the middle.
His metal cudgel expanded rapidly and smashed down like it was a giant pillar from the heavens.
Adding genetic point!
Sun Wukong Gene +1!
A free genetic point was added to the Sun Wukong Gene, strengthening it to 6 points. Upon doing so, everything changed in an instant.
Currents of warmth flowed from the depths of his body and circulated through his entire system. The mountain spring, which represented his energy that was long drained, now began to replenish itself as vibrant life energy flooded forth.
Feng Lin instantly felt as though his fatigued body was soaking in spring water. Powerful energy circulated through his body, injecting new power into his cells and gradually causing him to recover his peak state.
And now, Feng Lin didn’t hold back. He channeled the entirety of his Heart Monkey Force into the metal cudgel.
The force of his attacks was enhanced by 3 times, 10 times, 30 times…100 times!
This ordinary-looking cudgel attack suddenly contained enough force to split apart the heavens and earth, which bore down onto this space.
A sword and a cudgel. The sword was ominously sharp, gleaming with sharpness. They were sharply opposed to each other with neither prepared to give an inch of advantage.
In the countless pairs of eyes of the spectators which were wide open, the current scene was like Mars just collided into Earth.
Silence flooded the area.
Under the attacks of two extremes, the time seemed to have completely stopped.
Within the sword silhouette, the lanky figure there was extremely shocked. His eyes were wide open as he felt a powerful backlash that was strong enough to topple mountains and overturn seas. It felt unblockable.
Earlier, he had gone all out with his attack, no longer had any power left to use for defense. At the next instant, he was instantly engulfed by the energy tides of Feng Lin’s attack.
A figure fell backward and landed onto the ground, completely devoid of strength and energy to fight back.
Genetic potential +9,200!
The spectators were all completely dumbfounded. Their jaws dropped for the time it took an incense stick to burn before the cheering began to spread through the audience.
“The victor is actually the Spirit Slayer Lin…Lin Feng!!!”
The dragged-out voice ignited the atmosphere of the entire place.
“AWESOME! An adept could actually defeat a sword cultivator at the elite adept realm. This is simply unbelievable!”
“Is this the true strength of Spirit Slayer Lin Feng?”
“Investigate him! We must investigate him for sure. His mythological path is too powerful. Check his origins, we cannot allow such a powerful mythological path to land in the hands of others!”
…
Feng Lin won despite being the weaker party, and he instantly caused exclamations of admiration and probing by others.
And as the victor, no one noticed that Feng Lin’s hands were trembling slightly before he forced them to relax and maintain an unmoving state.
Ultimately, he still couldn’t go all the way through.
Feng Lin silently mused. In truth, he won this battle partly due to luck.
If Sun Wukong Mythological Path could allow one to unleash their mental and spirit transformations to the max, Lu Dongbin Mythological Path would allow one to sharpen their sword qi to the max.
Both were paragon mythological paths and were supposedly equal. Victory and defeat hinged on one’s methods, cultivation realm, and their wills.
Even Feng Lin himself didn’t have the confidence that he would be able to win for sure. He depended on the after-effects of adding a free genetic point, allowing him to instantly recover and defeat his exhausted opponent.
Just the boss of the 9,000th floor was already so strong. If he wished to climb up further, it would only be more difficult.
His current strength was still insufficient for him to do so.
Earlier, because of his effortless victories, Feng Lin felt that the Heaven Reaching Pagoda was nothing impressive. But right now, his arrogance had completely dissipated.
He didn’t waste any moment and instantly started to cultivate.
His Cultivation Gene was activated alongside the Grand-grade Heavenly Immortal Art. His Heart Monkey Force gushed out, enveloping the entire area. The spiritual qi in this area all belonged to him and he could use them freely.
“What’s going on? Where’s the spiritual qi of heavens and earth?”
“The spirit particles in the air become zero? What just happened?”
“Without spiritual qi, how can I cultivate?”
…
Feng Lin seemed to have transformed into a bottomless black hole and was frenziedly absorbing spiritual qi. The entirety of the spiritual qi in this level was completely drained dry.
The cultivators here were all extremely frantic.
And as the person who started all this, Feng Lin was completely immersed in his cultivation.
Mythological genes were tangible images of humanity’s cultivation talent. After awakening them, one’s potential would be fully displayed. And adding cultivation and hard work to the innate mythological genes, one could cultivate to become an immortal by absorbing the spiritual qi of heavens and earth to strengthen their bodies.
Xiantian (innate) and Houtian (acquired) were like Yin and Yang. They had to combine together to form the grand supreme (Taichi), complementing each other to allow one’s cultivation speed to increase rapidly.
Feng Lin had obtained two free houtian genetic points previously. He decisively added them to both his Houtian Genes respectively, causing his life information to change again.
=====
Name: Feng Lin
Vitality stat: 82,900
Houtian Genes: Sun Wukong Gene x7; Cultivation Gene x5
Heaven Genes: Monkey King Gene x10; Daoheart Gene x10
…
Genetic potential: 2,600
====
His vitality stat officially broke through the 80,000 mark. Regardless of his mythological gene level or his vitality stat, he officially entered the late-phase of the adept realm. He was not far away from the peak-phase at all.
His next step would be the elite adept realm.
If he could achieve that, given how tyrannically powerful the Sun Wukong Mythological Path was, he would definitely become one of the strongest cultivators of humanity in a single leap.
When he thought of this, Feng Lin was filled with anticipation.
He stood up and walked out of his residence abruptly, moving to his next targeted destination.
