I Can Infinitely Synthesize Transcendent Genes - Chapter 165
Chapter 165: [146] Evolution! Shadow Storm in the Dark (Seeking monthly tickets, recommendations, and subscriptions)_1
The world was like a prison, with dark tides churning, filled with a rolling intent to kill.
Of course, Pei Jinye dared to make his move.
If a member of the Judgement Place wanted to lay hands on a public official of the Federation, they needed layers of approval, especially someone like him, an “examinee” with such high status and authority. Would the other party really dare to defy the Star Ring’s commands and attack him?
If so, they would undoubtedly be showing up tonight by breaking the rules.
Moreover…
Pei Jinye had gone over every detail of this path in front of him, inside and out, countless times.
He could even describe how many leaves were in any given section of forest.
The spot where the adversary appeared was precisely the blind spot of the residential area’s surveillance.
It was for this very reason.
That he chose to make his move.
He couldn’t know how his life would change after taking action.
The only thing he knew was…
Now there was another guy as annoying as Xu Tian in front of him.
If he didn’t take her down, his future activities and even cultivation would face significant hindrances.
So…
“You must die!”
In this Different Dimensional Space, the gold and bright fire blazed in an instant, outshining the heart-pounding darkness around. The light flared up within three feet, tearing through the sky and the ground.
The light illuminated Yang Qingdan’s cold and pure face, which bore shock and mockery.
In her heart, she probably thought this high school student seemed strong, but he was actually a frog in a well, foolishly trying to use his fragile, unimaginative consciousness to judge her strength. This naive act didn’t surprise her in the least.
Because she had killed plenty of such “frogs in wells”!
Her indifferent eyes reflected the golden brilliance, and in an instant, the woman’s body seemed to overlap with a million shadows.
The golden fire fell upon the shadows, and right there on the spot, they melted into one.
But at the same time.
A silver-white strike descended.
In the silent Different Dimensional Space, a drop of blood shot out.
After the shadows in mid-air dissipated, they re-condensed three meters away, and Yang Qingdan’s face darkened as she glared at the crimson stain on the back of her hand.
“Quite surprising…”
Before she finished speaking.
A huge hand seemed to cover the sky and earth, an uncaring, ruthless hand reaching for Yang Qingdan’s face, which was decent looking.
“Seeking death!” Yang Qingdan was infuriated.
Her body once again turned into a shadow.
However, the next second.
Pei Jinye seemed to have anticipated her next move, and a brilliant silver-white light erupted in his hand.
Within the illusion, a hand suddenly emerged and firmly stopped Pei Jinye’s arm that was holding the sword.
In the blink of an eye, the two were entangled together.
Whipping up a fierce wind.
“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”…
A series of collision sounds followed.
Pei Jinye’s waist and abdomen were pierced by the shadow, and the ability to regenerate flesh kicked in. What really surprised him, though, was the appearance of black patterns on the skin’s surface where the wounds had healed.
He had used both King Kong Indestructible and Body Shield, yet he couldn’t prevent this kind of damage.
Indeed, non-physical attacks were still unstoppable!
Pei Jinye’s murderous intent was boiling.
“Hit by the Poison Shadow, your flesh and blood will be slowly devoured by darkness until it decomposes. Haven’t you noticed your Vitality is dropping?” Yang Qingdan said with an expressionless mockery.
Pei Jinye paid no mind.
The silver-white Little Sword in his hand continued to thrust forward, giving no chance for the woman opposite him to catch her breath.
Yang Qingdan was vexed.
Fighting against Pei Jinye, she couldn’t find her own rhythm at all and was completely suppressed by his pace.
She felt baffled.
How old was this kid?
The records showed he was only seventeen this year!
So how could a seventeen-year-old high school student possibly have richer combat experience than her, a Second Rank member of the Judgement Place?
Was he practicing in his mother’s womb?
Damn it!
At this moment, Yang Qingdan finally understood why Xu Tian was persistently interested in this kid.
Had it been her, she would have been greatly intrigued as well.
This was definitely not a “talent” that a commoner could have!
A person of humble origins couldn’t possibly, shouldn’t possibly have such a “talent”!
“Tell me, what’s the secret to your cultivation?”
“You must have a secret!”
Yang Qingdan’s figure dissolved instantly in the Different Dimensional Space.
Hidden, Wind Blades attacked from all directions, making it impossible to discern their origins, quickly engulfing Pei Jinye.
No matter how Pei Jinye dodged, the injuries on his body grew more numerous.
“Wound healing? Or is it that you can regenerate flesh?”
Yang Qingdan’s voice rose suddenly with astonishment.
The Judgement Place had medicines that could heal wounds, but Pei Jinye clearly wasn’t using any drugs, and the wounds he received visibly healed on their own.
Was it a technique?
Yang Qingdan even wondered if the boy wasn’t Psychic Class at all but possessed the ability of Flesh Rebirth!
The next moment.
Pei Jinye located her hiding spot and lunged with a thrust of his sword.
“Clang!”
Sparks flew.
A Psychic Imprint quietly landed on Yang Qingdan’s arm.
Unaware, Yang Qingdan took advantage of the momentum to once again melt into the shadows, attempting to torture Pei Jinye with Shadow Wind Blades until he revealed the truth.
But it was only for a moment.
Pei Jinye’s sword thrust again, finding Yang Qingdan’s location with incredible precision.
Yang Qingdan was startled.
She hid again…
Pei Jinye thrust again…
Yang Qingdan screamed.
Pei Jinye thrust again!
“Ah!”
Thrust!
After repeating dozens of times, Yang Qingdan finally stopped hiding. Wiping blood from her mouth, she wore a face of shock: “How did you find me? What on earth did you do to me?”
“Is it so hard to understand?” Pei Jinye sneered, and his sword lunged once more.
Yang Qingdan’s face turned pale with fright.
Furious and distraught, she cursed Pei Jinye as a madman.
The Shadow Wind Blade in my hand surged furiously.
Suddenly, the space in front of me seemed to freeze over, as a dazzling golden light flashed into existence in an instant.
At that moment, a complete change came over Yang Qingdan’s face.
But before she could linger for a few seconds, that not-so-ordinary and delicate face was directly pressed down by a large hand.
No mercy was shown in the ruthless destruction of beauty!
Pei Jinye feigned weakness to the enemy and flicked a button out.
The crystal light seemed so insignificant under the sparkling and overflowing brilliance of the moment.
But Yang Qingdan recognized the significance of this trinket at a glance!
“Yuanli… Button…”
“Congratulations, you got it right, so please accept this meeting gift from me,” he said.
Pei Jinye, holding her face with one hand and smiling viciously, triggered the explosion of the Yuanli Button.
In an instant, a terrifying Psychic Storm enveloped Yang Qingdan.
After the day’s elite assessment ended, Mr. Han came looking for me and said he had taken the liberty of changing the agreed reward to this Yuanli Button.
At that time, Pei Jinye didn’t understand what was so special about this small button.
But now, he saw the answer in the terror-filled eyes of the woman before him.
A terrifying power enveloped Yang Qingdan, and the Different Dimensional Space originating from her produced numerous cracks.
With a “bang,” the world collapsed.
Pei Jinye himself was hurled back by the destructive force of this terrifying power.
Back to reality.
The darkness of 3 am still shrouded the city that hadn’t awoken.
Yang Qingdan lay on the ground, trembling.
Struggling to lift her head.
The Psychic Storm had nearly destroyed 90% of her Spiritual World.
But she still retained a sliver of consciousness.
However, the look in her eyes was more shocked and horrified than ever before.
“Spiritual power… Body Technique… Flesh Rebirth… Freezing… Golden light… None of these are Techniques, but Transcendent abilities, right?”
Pei Jinye squat down without a word, “The golden light, don’t you find it familiar?”
“Golden light?” At first, Yang Qingdan didn’t think much of it, but now, hearing Pei Jinye say so, her expression changed dramatically, “You’re the one who killed—”
However, she never had the chance to finish her sentence.
Pei Jinye had already pressed his hand down.
In an instant, countless memories flooded in!
“Father, what exactly happened in the Eastern Continent? Why has the army suddenly mobilized? Who are we guarding against…”
“The Great Priest said that the Old Gods Association is plotting something big in Central State… sending Xu Tian and Zhao Qianfeng over? Xu Tian has a good chance to make a breakthrough to Second Rank Judge next year. That’s very good.”
“Zhao Qianfeng is dead? As long as Xu Tian is fine, that’s good.”
“Xu Tian, you can’t contact me now, once discovered, your opponents will definitely target your opportunity for promotion next year… What did you say the high school student’s name was? Pei Jinye? Okay, I’ll covertly look into his family background for you…”
“You mean this kid named Pei Jinye might be the murderer? Are you sure? A high school student is playing around with Transcendents?”
“Wait, you say that this high school student trains very fast? Xu Tian, could you not joke? How big is Da Peng City, how fast can he be?”
“I’ve looked into it… this high school student’s family doesn’t show anything unusual… but the archives over a hundred years ago are missing… wasn’t there an incident at the archive department back then? So, it’s possible that it wasn’t recorded… don’t worry, his background is clean, he’s from a lowly household.”
“Xu Tian, I’m trying to get you back to headquarters, I’ve heard that an Elder from the Old Gods Association is eyeing Da Peng City… Don’t mess around. Next year is a great opportunity for your promotion, although there was a slight issue with this mission, you still made a meritorious discovery…”
“Xu Tian, are you sure? Once you activate the surveillance of the Judgement Place, that person in Central State will definitely notice your little moves, have you thought about how you’ll face his anger? Just wait a bit longer.”
“Xu Tian, I will avenge you!”
“Xu Tian… it turns out, your earlier speculations were all correct, and even conservative!”
Yang Qingdan’s eyes dimmed completely.
Understanding her plight, Pei Jinye kindly searched her for money before setting her ablaze, cutting her off from the world.
He looked down at his wounds, where the shadows writhed like little snakes.
With a thought,
These wriggling shadow serpents dispersed, ceasing their devouring of his Vitality, and quickly gathered at his fingertips.
Pei Jinye extinguished them without expression.
The attribute panel suddenly displayed new additions!
[New Extraordinary-Human Genes: Spirit·Fog Shadow Body]
[Adding Extraordinary Ability: Misty Shadow Wind Blade (can transform the body into Misty Shadow Wind Blade, infinitely available in the dark, consumes spiritual power)]
Pei Jinye tested it out.
The consumption of spiritual power was about 0.1 per second, and with a wave of his hand, at least dozens of Misty Shadow Wind Blades enveloped everything in front of him.
The reason why Yang Qingdan’s Misty Shadow Wind Blade naturally carried toxins, devouring Blood energy, was not due to the Extraordinary-Human Genes but rather to a Technique she practiced.
Looking past him,
[New skill]: Toxic Shadow (Beginner 30%) (Effect: Shadow-class attacks will deal additional damage, depleting the opponent’s Blood energy, ineffective against light-based healing abilities)
Beyond that,
Pei Jinye found that this woman was a walking experience package.
[Firearms + Proficiency 50%];
[Close Combat + Proficiency 50%];
[Four Seasons Talisman, Spring Chapter + Proficiency 20%];
“She actually also practiced the Spring Chapter?”
Pei Jinye was somewhat surprised.
Having devoured the related cultivation memories of the other party, although he couldn’t obtain everything, the current mastery was greatly beneficial to his own cultivation.
With further practice, the proficiency could increase by at least another 20%!
He realized that,
The more advanced the Technique, the harder it is to cultivate.
Apart from the corresponding physique, the talent for cultivation and the type of Transcendence were all innate conditions that affected the speed of cultivation.
Pei Jinye’s exceptional aspect lay in… whatever type of Transcendent ability was required, he seemed able to manage it, and if not, he would simply eliminate the corresponding Transcendent practitioner.
Simple and effective!
“Hey, this woman even practiced the Play of Five Animals…”
“But only at the Beginner level of 5%… Really weak!”
