Seeing that the white pill was effective, Lin Zichen immediately gave it to Shen Qinghan, and then to the others.
Soon, the unconscious people on the ground woke up one after another.
But their consciousness was still somewhat vague, and their bodies were numb and weak, unable to move for quite some time.
It could only be said that the white pills were somewhat useful, but not much.
While waiting for everyone to detoxify.
Lin Zichen, having nothing better to do, went back to the bamboo building, scavenging, and devouring the bodies of the Divine Plant Cult cultists on the ground.
To be precise, it was not devouring the bodies, but the exotic beast genes contained within the bodies.
He had killed too quickly before, taking down seven in the blink of an eye and seriously injuring one, and he had forgotten to absorb them.
Taking advantage of this free time, he went back and devoured them all.
[You have absorbed a trace of the “Ironclad Rhino” life essence]
[Ironclad Rhino Compendium: 8%]
[You have absorbed a trace of the “Sawtooth Crocodile” life essence]
[Sawtooth Crocodile Compendium: 7%]
[You have absorbed a trace of the “Ice-Fire Poison Scorpion” life essence]
[Ice-Fire Poison Scorpion Compendium: 9%]
[…]
Lin Zichen devoured a total of seven bodies consecutively, and each time he gained a new life essence, opening up progress bars for seven new compendiums.
Regarding this, he inwardly lamented it was a pity.
Unless he could directly achieve 100% and unlock the Biometric Attributes.
Otherwise, it would just be starting a progress bar, which was not as substantial as strengthening existing Biometric Attributes.
Shaking his head, Lin Zichen stopped in front of a small tree.
This small tree was growing in a very strange way.
The leaves were a deep red like blood.
The branches were covered with vein-like crevices.
Looking at it was a bit disturbing mentally.
This strange little tree, which grew from the mouth of the severely injured Divine Plant Cult cultist they had interrogated, must have developed from a Gu Seed, right?
Lin Zichen thought of this possibility.
Before, when he was in school, the Divine Plant Cult had launched an attack on him.
They had instructed Wang Shujie and Lu Gang to plot and hand him a Gu Seed, hoping he would consume it.
Yuan Dongzhi once said that the Gu Seed was used to control people.
And the best way to control someone is by having control over their life and death.
Thinking about this, the function of the Gu Seed was mostly likely for the controlled individual to take immediate root and sprout upon committing any act of betrayal, directly killing the betrayer.
Mm, makes sense.
If not surprising, it should be as he had thought.
With that thought, Lin Zichen reached out and touched the strange tree in front of him, thinking: Devour!
No response.
No system notification popped out in the void.
Lin Zichen was initially puzzled, but then he quickly realized.
He almost forgot, [The Law of the Jungle] only allowed him to devour the life essence of the dead, not living beings…
“Snap!”
Just then, a snapping sound arose.
Lin Zichen swung his hand swiftly, mercilessly cutting down the strange tree in front of him, then using his Blood Qi Power to completely destroy its inner structure.
He then touched the tree again, which was now dead beyond any doubt, and thought: Devour!
[You have absorbed a trace of the “Bloodthirsty Gu Tree” life essence]
[Bloodthirsty Gu Tree Compendium: 0.01%]
He could actually devour it!
Lin Zichen’s heart surged with excitement, a bit surprised.
But soon, the surprise faded away.
Because he discovered, to his dismay, that the Bloodthirsty Gu Tree compendium’s progress was only 0.01%.
Each newly born sapling of the Bloodthirsty Gu Tree could only provide 0.01% of the opening progress for the compendium.
By that calculation, he would need to devour ten thousand to unlock the compendium.
Where would he find ten thousand to devour?
All the Divine Plant Cult cultists in the country added together might not even number ten thousand.
After contemplating these things for a while.
Soon, Lin Zichen left the area near the bamboo building and returned to where the others were.
…
In a forest not far from the Tree Cage.
Lu Tianrong and the masked man were locked in a tense battle, evenly matched and relentless.
The deafening sounds of fierce impacts kept exploding around them.
Every tree the two passed by, towering and majestic, fell one after another, alarming the wild animals in the surrounding forests into a frenzied flight.
“So what if you force me out of the Tree Cage?”
“Do you really think a group of elite trainees, not even 20 years old, can defeat an Ordinary Ninth Rank Genetic Integrator who has fully fused genes twice?”
“Now, even if you want to go back to the Tree Cage, I won’t let you, just stay here with me and continue this indecisive struggle!”
“Hahahahaha!”
The masked man dodged an incoming chop while laughing mockingly, attacking Lu Tianrong’s mental fortitude continuously.
He aimed to provoke a strong emotional response in Lu Tianrong, the instructor, which could potentially affect his performance.
Lu Tianrong was aware of the masked man’s intentions.
But still, he was affected.
The thought of the elite trainees in the Tree Cage possibly losing to the Sect Hierarch, and then being killed or abducted by him, inevitably stirred strong emotions in him.
After all, those 20 elite trainees were future geniuses with bright prospects.
If they grew normally, they would all likely evolve into Rare Level beings in the future.
Some, with better luck and access to substantial resources for evolution in the Origin Land, might even evolve into Epic Level beings, becoming humanity’s most top-tier combat power.
If anything happened to this group of elite talents.
Then Lu Tianrong, as the leading instructor, would not be able to remedy the loss even if he died a thousand times over.
Lu Tianrong knew this very well.
Considering this, he hesitated for a moment.
In the end, he gritted his teeth and decided to take a gamble, activating his Exotic Beast Gene well beyond its usual limit.
120% activation of the Four-Armed Demon Ape Gene!
