Ling Jiu returned to the dormitory.
“You’re back?”
Shi Gang came over excitedly with a cheeky smile on his face. “What did you get? Make me jealous!”
Ling Jiu smiled and said. “One Ultimate Gene Arcana secret technique, one top-tier treasure of heaven and earth, and one top-tier Gene Arcana Elixir, the Turbellarian Self-Healing Elixir!”
“Damn! This sure is lavish!”
Shi Gang’s eyes were green with envy. “An Ultimate Gene Arcana secret technique, a top-tier treasure of heaven and earth, a top-tier Gene Arcana Elixer, damn my jealous is about to get factored!”
“Then you gotta work harder!”
Ling Jiu smiled and then took off his shirt as he consumed the Bottle Tree Heart.
The Bottle Tree Heart had a calming effect, and after the appearance of Gene Arcana, the Bottle Tree too had evolved.
Its calming effect was infinitely amplified and finally had the ability to stimulate the causal body within a human’s body, causing an Arcanist’s Arcana to awaken at a deeper level.
“The third awakening!”
Ling Jiu was full of anticipation!
After a short while, he felt a warm feeling sweeping through his body. His mind was at an unprecedented peace as he then fell asleep.
“Damn, I’m jealous!”
Looking at Ling Jiu who has fast asleep after taking the elixir, Shi Gang was extremely envious.
If possible, he would also like to taste a top-tier treasure of heaven and earth someday. But sadly, it remains only a dream.
After sleeping for who knows how long, Ling Jiu finally woke up.
“This sleep was just too good!”
Ling Jiu stretched, and only felt refreshed and full of energy, with his state of mind better than ever.
“They are both treasures of heaven and earth, but the gap between the Crystal Demonic Orchid and the Bottle Tree Heart is just too big!”
One produced hallucinations…
One calmed and soothed the mind…
One was painful suffering…
One was a good night’s sleep…
What a world of difference!
“Has the third awakening happened?”
Ling Jiu slowly closed his eyes and began to probe the Arcana of the people around him.
After the second awakening, he could now check other’s Arcana within five meters of his surrounding. Now, would its range now increase?
“Five meters, seven meters, nine meters…”
“Sure enough!”
Ling Jiu smiled. “The detection range has been expanded from 5 meters to 10 meters!”
The expansion of the detection range indicated the third awakening of the Replication Arcana had been successful!
At the same time, Ling Jiu was also delighted to discover that he could replicate once again.
What does this mean?
The cooldown period had shortened once again!
One needed to know that only 15 days had since passed since Ling Jiu replicated the ‘Ten-Thousand Gene Arcana’ Arcana!
What did this mean then?
It meant that the Replication Arcana’s cooldown period was less than 15 days now. As for the specific number of days, he needed to continue to observe!
“Ten-meter replication range!”
“A cooldown period of fewer than 15 days!”
“The replication ability is stronger!”
Ling Jiu felt good.
With a 15 day cooldown period, that means he could replicate two Arcanas a month on average. Twice a month, that’s terrifying!
Ling Jiu could imagine what a grand occasion it would be when he replicates thousands of Arcanas in his body. Would he become an omnipotent god, or something else even?
“Just thinking about it is exciting!”
Ling Jiu shook his head as he got out of the bed. It was late at night now, and Shi Gang was sitting on the bed absorbing Gene Arcana and was busy training.
“What’s the time now?”
Ling Jiu took out his mobile phone.
“F*ck! It’s 11:50!”
Ling Jiu perked up and immediately climbed out of the bed as he hurried out of the dorm. Fortunately, he woke up in time, or else he would have missed the training in Underground Room 12.
When he arrived at Underground Room 12, the alloy door had yet to be opened, and Zhou Ji and the other eight students were waiting.
Seeing Ling Jiu’s arrival, everyone looked over, with a look of envy, jealousy, and the like. All of them knew that Ling Jiu had received a reward!
“Ling Jiu, why are you late?”
Ai Yuhe frowned and asked.
“I just woke up, hahaha!” Ling Jiu laughed embarrassedly. Woke up…
All of the eight students suddenly felt discomfort. Sleeping?
He was sleeping?
Who the heck slept in this day and age? No one dared to even think about it. It was just too wasteful!
“I was beaten by a lazy guy who likes to sleep in?”
Christopher Adam stared at Ling Jiu as he felt bitter. He had already regarded Ling Jiu as a talented but lazy fool.
“To even find time to sleep is an absolute waste of your talent. This kind of person will only shine bright for a moment, but not for long! Just you wait and see, I will surpass you and trample you under my feet!”
Hirano Hatake and the other students also secretly swore. Ling Jiu had dominated the rankings for three straight weeks, and each time he beat them by 1 million points. It was a terrifying achievement that caused all other students to despair.
How were they supposed to catch up with such a massive gap between them?
However, at this moment, everyone’s mind suddenly became active. How could a guy who slept in and not train to dominate the rankings for long?
They now saw hope in surpassing Ling Jiu and became fully motivated again!
Ai Yuhe and Yang Ling’er knew that Ling Jiu was not that sort of person. Just as they were about to ask, the alloy gate opened.
“Let’s go in!”
When he came to the training room, Ling Jiu drank the life enhancement liquid and the Gene Arcana strengthening liquid as usual, and then he drank the Turbellarian Self-Healing Elixer.
His body became stronger!
Plus, his internal strength had improved again!
In the end, he obtained a powerful self-healing ability. With a slash, a gash appeared on his arm, and the wound healed at a speed that was visible to the eye.
Ten minutes later, the wound was completely healed, only the blood on the arm silently told the story of a cut that had been made here.
“What a powerful self-healing ability!”
Ling Jiu opened his eyes and smiled. “Even if I accidentally suffer a serious injury in the future, I’ll be able to heal back up in no time, and my survivability will be greatly improved! Awesome!”
Ling Jiu recomposed himself and started studying the Ultimate Gene Arcana secret technique he had just obtained.
This Gene Arcana secret technique is called Devouring the Stars. It was a very powerful name, meaning that it could even devour the stars, and its power was there to be seen.
“Devouring the Stars…”
After an hour or so later, Ling Jiu had successfully learned this secret technique and tried to activate the Devouring the Stars technique for the first time.
All of the Gene Arcana within a radius of 10,000 meters were being drawn and pulled towards Ling Jiu like swallows returning to their nest before pouring into his body in a frenzy!
Buzz…
Ling Jiu welcomed everything, and he absorbed everything that was drawn like a bottomless pit.
…
Three days had passed in a blink of an eye, and it was now the weekly live combat session. On Thursday morning, Ling Jiu piloted the maglev airship thousands of kilometers into the wilderness.
“Scan for Class 6 Direbeasts!”
“There’s 18 of them to the southwest? Nice!”
Ling Jiu found the first Class 6 Direbeast. It was 30 meters long, with a gray-brown body with a snake-like head, and a pointed jaw. Its tail was long and its nostrils round…
It was a monitor lizard!
Class 6 Direbeast: The Morton Monitor
However, the Morton Monitor’s condition was bad as it collapsed onto the ground with bloodied mucus dripping from its mouth, as if…
“Poisoned?”
Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows and showed a compassionate look. “I’m an experienced wildlife protector, seeing you suffering like this breaks my heart. I’ll make it quick!”
Ling Jiu spread his palm as a piece of silver metal appeared in his hand.
The next moment, the silver metal rose into the wind as it transformed into a five-meter-long spear in a blink of an eye. The spear tip was extremely sharp as a cold gleam appeared under the sunlight.
“Go!”
Ling Jiu pointed.
Whoosh!!
The long spear shot out like an arrow, instantly ripping through the distance of several meters before appearing in front of the Morton Monitor’s head and brutally pierced into it.
Dush!
The sudden pain caused the Morton Monitor to roar in pain as it thrashed about, but its head was already pierced open, how long can it struggle till?
A moment later, the Morton Monitor collapsed onto the ground and lay motionless.
“Heh, Ling’er’s Arcana sure is good!”
