Legend of the Mythological Genes Chapter 267

Chapter 267 - Nine Stars Aligned

Translator: Lordbluefire  Editor: Lordbluefire

The cruel frost of ice, the burning flames of fire, the numbing of thunder…the power of the three tail loop…

These three different energy types combined, instantly producing a power capable of destroying all matter. Everywhere the energy passed by, the area around it emitted crackling noises, and a charred smell permeated the atmosphere.

The three tails loop rapidly expanded, enveloping the surroundings. It was like a gigantic canopy. There was no way for anyone to hide.

Feng Lin also didn’t prepare to hide. If he didn’t face this head-on, even if Su Li was defeated, most probably he wouldn’t feel convinced in his heart.

In that case, Feng Lin would make him convinced!

He stood at his original location unmovingly, but he had already activated the abilities of the Spiritual Stone Monkey Gene to the maximum.

His skin shone with a jade-like luster and gradually formed a stone carapace around him. It was like he was within a stone egg, surrounded by protection.

Stonebirth Transformation!

This was a unique ability of his Stone Monkey Gene that he had obtained after he enhanced it to the max. Stone transformation!

The price for using this ability was that he would lose all ability to move and would be enveloped by stone, exchanging mobility for a greatly enhanced defense.

Even the lava around Mars’s core wasn’t able to do anything to him in this form.

Now that his cultivation base had advanced, his defensive prowess was naturally much greater as well. There was naturally no problem to block this three tails loop.

Amidst the gasps of shock, Feng Lin was already engulfed by lightning, frost, and flames. He was submerged inside the energy torrent and vanished completely.

Su Li’s eyes narrowed as he stared at Feng Lin’s figure. His eyes shone with a cold light.

(Why is this man so confident? He didn’t even attempt to evade it and actually chose to face it head-on. Did he really think that my three tails loop is an ordinary energy attack?)

The power of this loop truly wasn’t ordinary.

Feng Lin was buried within. Frozen by ice, burnt by fire, numbed by the lightning—this power of disintegration would cause the structure of matter to break down, a power of complete destruction.

Ordinary people truly wouldn’t be able to withstand this.

But fortunately…he was an exception.

The layer of jade-like light on his skin flashed repeatedly, forming another thin layer of protection.

All energy that came in contact with it would slide off to the sides. He was untouchable by laws of any kind.

Feng Lin might be submerged but he suffered no injuries.

Before the jade light dissipated, the energy from the three tails hoop was completely useless against him.

Compared to material attacks, energy attacks were completely negated by his ability of being impervious to fire and water.

Bang!

His figure trembled as the hoop around him broke apart. They turned into motes of energy before dissipating.

“What?” Upon seeing Feng Lin unharmed, despite his clothes being charred, Su Li was extremely shocked. He instinctively grew wary of Feng Lin.

He was allowed to execute his strongest technique. If this was a real fight, he would have no chance against Feng Lin as well.

A bumpkin cultivator from the solar system was actually so powerful?

This was simply unbelievable.

Feng Lin mysteriously smiled. “After joining my team, you can do that as well. That’s because I’ve already gained complete knowledge about my own mythological path and developed all my abilities, strengthening them to the max. It just so happens that your abilities are completely countered by mine.”

He revealed some simple details, but he didn’t divulge his true secrets.

“Oh?” Su Li had a look of contemplation on his face. He glanced at Yi, feeling extremely difficult to make a decision.

Shamans and demons were always on opposing sides.

Although he had already turned on his clan and fled from his demonic cultivation family, he hadn’t fallen to a degree where he would stand on the same side as a shaman warrior.

He intended to reject but common sense stopped him from saying something stupid like, “I will never be on the same team as a shaman.”

Since he needed Feng Lin’s help, if he caused trouble, there would be no benefits for him.

But if he could really gain the complete knowledge of his mythological path, it was worth it no matter what price he had to pay.

Hmph!

Su Li and Yi mutually stared at each other. Their eyes were filled with coldness and hostility.

“Because of the mythological path I’m on, I suffer from an invisible curse. Those around me would have extremely bad luck and end up with very dire fates. Are you sure you want to team up with me?” He asked, wanting to remind Feng Lin.

Feng Lin calmly smiled, he didn’t mind this at all.

Sun Wukong was an existence who even dared to rebel against the heavens. His mythological path was full of taboos; what was there to fear about some invisible curse?

Before true power, all hidden problems would ultimately be suppressed.

“For cultivators, our creed should be that ‘my fate is mine to dictate, and not for the heavens’. Why should you and I care so much about fates?” Feng Lin laughed.

Upon hearing this, Su Li no longer hesitated. He nodded. “Fine, I will join this team!”

Yi who heard Feng Lin’s words turned his head and cast him a deep glance. His eyes were filled with an agreement as well.

Upon seeing this, Feng Lin’s smile widened. He knew that he had managed to convince these two unyielding individuals.

“How did you accomplish this?” Yana at the side was still puzzled. She sent a mental transmission to Feng Lin.

She was very curious about what Feng Lin had written in his emails that made these two individuals who didn’t form teams with others to actually come all the way here.

Feng Lin simply smiled and said nothing.

What she didn’t know was that in the invitation emails, he had only written a set of words on the two emails respectively.

“Hou Yi shooting the suns!”

“Nine-tails Sky Fox!”

Before their complete mythological path, who would be able to resist the temptation?

What was slightly troublesome was Yi and Su Li; they were a shaman and a demon. Their relationship was going to be like fire and water.

But as long as they joined the team, the hostilities between the two wouldn’t be able to make any huge waves, as Feng Lin didn’t plan on telling them the mythological secrets right away.

How valuable was a complete mythological path? Giving it to them because they joined the team? This price was far too cheap.

Feng Lin wouldn’t do such businesses.

What he was planning to give them was just the qualifications to join the Mythological Gene Association.

This meant that even after they joined the association, they still needed to pay a huge price before they could obtain the complete mythological path.

From the start to the end, they would be within Feng Lin’s palm. Under his control.

There were countless mythological paths out there, and Feng Lin could only select one to walk, or a few others. However, if the bulk of the mythological paths in his knowledge wasn’t used, wouldn’t that be too much of a waste?

This was why he wanted to establish the Mythological Gene Association.

He had the knowledge and he naturally wanted to make use of it in a way that would benefit him in the best way.

Countless mythological paths meant that there were countless possibilities.

By having more members, upon combining strengths, it meant that their futures would be brighter.

At that time, the Mythological Gene Association would aid him to rise and reach an unprecedented height where no one could surpass.

Wealth, Companion, Law, Earth!

One’s cultivation was the key, but resources couldn’t be lacked.

The universe was simply too vast!

One’s strength had a limit to it after all, and Feng Lin wouldn’t be able to digest everything.

The reason why Feng Lin established the association was because he wanted to extend his ‘reach’ to seize cultivation resources of the universe, use the combined strength of his team to help each other out, and also to increase his own cultivation base. This was the correct way.

Feng Lin’s team wasn’t picked by him randomly. They were all people with huge potential.

They would become the cornerstones of the Mythological Gene Association after they grew stronger in the future. Even now, he could already tell how extraordinary they were.

Su Li and Yi joined the team, and the small team of five people was officially formed. Now, they only had to wait for the exam to arrive.

During the next few days, the five of them concentrated on their cultivations, wanting to increase their strength and adjust themselves to their peak states.

Feng Lin wasn’t stingy. He took out the genetic potions he had concocted for them to consume.

All these were external items; there was no need for him to be a miser.

The stronger his teammates were, the more help they would be able to provide to him.

In addition, he was already an initial-grade geneticist. As long as he had the ingredients, he would be able to concoct these genetic potions easily.

Also, after he had awakened his Spiritual Stone Monkey Gene, Feng Lin’s control over energy was much stronger than before. In fact, he felt that he could already attempt alchemy.

However, alchemy was too vast and profound. Now, time wasn’t in his favor, so he could only put this aside for now.

His team members were all cultivators; thus, they naturally wouldn’t act polite for the sake of it. They knew that the stronger their team members were, the better it would be for everyone.

They thanked Feng Lin and took the genetic potions he had provided. They put in all their efforts in cultivation. Waves of pressure radiated forth from each cultivation room; their vitality stats were all rising quickly.

Feng Lin also concentrated on his cultivation. He drank a bottle of holy transcendent water and one of the remaining queen aberration’s gene hypophysis.

Once these nutritious items were consumed, he activated the art of ‘refining energy into qi’ to digest them. They instantly transformed into currents of warmth that flowed around his body.

With enough nutrients, it was like a stream of water nurturing the parched land.

Genetic potential +0.6, +0.6, +0.6…

His genetic potential surged, soon reaching 20.8.

Feng Lin suddenly opened his eyes, feeling extremely dissatisfied.

After experiencing his huge improvement back then, the increase of 0.6 to his genetic potential truly felt insignificant.

After becoming an elite cultivator, his need for genetic potential increased by tens to hundreds of times. With such slow speed, he didn’t know how long it would take for him to become a grand cultivator.

However, with limited conditions, he was helpless as well.

Clearly, the grade of the genetic potions he had concocted was simply too low. They no longer fit his needs.

If this was the case, he had to make enhancing his geneticist level a top priority. He had to be able to concoct higher-graded potions.

Time was limited, conditions were too.

Right now, he could only temporarily endure this and put this aside until the first exam was concluded.

In the blink of an eye, five to six days passed.

Feng Lin’s genetic potential unknowingly increased by 100.8.

He decisively strengthened his Beastial Gene to 9, Violence Gene to 8, maxing them out. His genetic potential dwindled down to 10.8.

The abilities of these two genes would be of great help to him. Strengthening them to the max was a good thing.

As for the Coercion Gene, that was only a kind of mental pressure. He temporarily ignored that for now.

He had one free primeval genetic point and could use that to strengthen something at crucial times and recover his strength. He would keep this in reserve for the times he might need it. There was no hurry.

After the two transcendent genes were strengthened to the max, Feng Lin’s vitality stat broke past 700, reaching 712. His aura became as heavy as a mountain. He crossed another major point.

Feng Lin practiced his Beastlike Fist Art. His punches were filled with thunderous force, creating ripples through the air that spread continuously outward, causing the space around him to tremble.

The break time of ten days finally ended. The first exam of Cosmos University would officially begin.

Feng Lin’s team walked out, only to see that the combat field was already flooded with people.

The examiners stood at the entrance to register the information of the team members.

Captain: Feng Lin, candidate from the solar system.

Members: Yana, candidate from the solar system.

Members: Aris, candidate from the solar system.

Members: Yi, candidate from the Huaxia Star Republic.

Members: Su Li, candidate from the Huaxia Star Republic.

Feng Lin’s team of five reported their names. At the start, the examiner had a cold look on his face. But when he heard Yi and Su Li’s name, he was involuntarily shocked.

Two candidates from the Huaxia Star Republic actually were willing to join a team with candidates from the solar system? Anyone would be shocked if they learned of this.

What made him even more puzzled was that the captain was someone from the solar system as well.

What capabilities did he have to be able to convince these two from the Huaxia Star Republic?

The examiner stared at Feng Lin, surveying him carefully.

However, joining a team was the freedom of the candidates, he wouldn’t probe too much about this. Despite so, he already felt that the chances of this team wouldn’t be high because their captain was someone from the solar system.

No matter how outstanding candidates from the solar system were, how good could they be? Most probably, this team would fail in the first round.

After that, all the teams arrived and the exam officially started.

In the combat field, the applause was like thunder, continuously ringing out.

BOOM!

The sky split open.

A cluster of flames that resembled the sun fell from the sky. In the center of the cluster of flames, a muscular figure could be seen there. The flames cloaked him like a god of fire from the legends. Boundless heat and heavy pressure gushed forth from him.

The exam candidates were all shocked.

“Marshal of the special forces from the Blazing Army of the Interstellar Cultivation Association, Chi Feihu!”

“The examiner is actually him!”

“What a boss! I heard that his cultivation has already reached the grand adept realm!”

Sounds of exclamations rang out from the candidates.

Chi Feihu was in his military uniform. He stepped on balls of fire and stood in the air, peering down at everyone. His voice then rang out through the entire space.

“In this place, the first exam of Cosmos University officially begins! The mission for this exam is an Interstellar Debarkation Battle. Your mission is to attack and occupy a new life planet and seize the things the Interstellar Cultivation Association set as targets for you. There are over a million exam candidates. This means that there are over 200,000 teams. Every hundred teams will form into a group. We will send each group to different locations of the planet. Only five teams would be qualified to pass the first exam, the others would be directly eliminated. The team in the first place can directly pass this exam while the other four have to fight the second Interstellar Debarkation Battle. After three times, if they still cannot get the first place and pass the exam, they would also be eliminated.”

After he spoke, whisperings broke out in the field.

All the exam candidates were intelligent people seeing that they could reach this step. Their expressions all turned solemn as they understood the criteria of the first exam.

The answer was to take fast and ruthless actions, directly obtaining the first place and passing the exam. By doing so, they would be able to obtain the longest period of resting time to prepare for the second exam.

If not, even if they became the top five, they would have to fight the debarkation battle again and again. Even if they were fortunate enough to pass it in the end, everyone on the team would be greatly exhausted by then which wouldn’t bode well for the second exam.

“The Cultivation Association discovered a brand new spiritual qi planet. Within there are great amounts of rare spirit minerals called spirit crystals. What you all need to do is to seize the highest-grade spirit crystal from the people of the planet. This spirit crystal is known as the ‘spirit crystal bead’. Once this item is seized, the aboriginals of the planet would no longer have any strength to resist and can be easily subdued by us. You all have a total of ten days. During this period, we will send you supplies silently by airdrop. However, resources are limited. You all will have to seize what you can for yourselves.” Marshal Chi Feihu then continued, “Now, put on your battlesuits. The star teleportation formation will soon be activated!”

Feng Lin and the others started to get busy and wore the battlesuits that were akin to armor.

RUMBLE~

The earth was shaking.

The Starry Space Golden Pyramid revolved around unceasingly.

Alignment of the nine planets. The energy from the bottom planet gradually flowed up. Abruptly, the planet at the peak erupted forth with energy. A gigantic light pillar shot into the dark starry space as a gigantic gate of darkness slowly opened.

Countless runes appeared beneath the feet of everyone, constituting a great formation.

“Artificial wormhole?” The destructive might in the air caused Feng Lin’s body to tremble.

At the next moment, all the exam candidates transformed into a flowing light that was absorbed into the gate of darkness.

Feng Lin felt himself entering a bottomless tunnel.

Sinking…sinking~

Note:

Chi Feihu can be literally translated to scarlet flying tiger.
