Legend of the Mythological Genes

Quick, quick, quick…

He breathed out like a dragon.

Feng Lin channeled a single breath through his body. His entire being flown up into the air like an azure dragon roaming the clouds.

All of a sudden, he swooped down from the skies. His hands formed into claws of a divine dragon as an invisible pressure enveloped the surroundings.

From top to bottom, the monk was completely trapped by his claw force. He wanted to make sure the monk couldn’t struggle free.

“Good attack!” The monk inclined his head. The pressure bore down on him, and under the pressure, it was like he saw an azure dragon swooping downward.

An impassioned intention rose in his heart as he roared out.

Invulnerable Diamond Body!

In this short exchange of blows, the monk realized that this Lin Feng was undoubtedly a formidable opponent. He instantly used his strongest attacks, not daring to hold back.

Om Mani Padme Hum…

He mumbled the six-syllables true words, one of his hands folded hand seals before his chest as golden light flooded out from him. His entire body began to expand at a speed visible to the naked eye and he soon reached five meters tall. He was like a vajra descending to the mortal world. His muscular form was filled with explosive strength, like a volcano with magma churning violently within, prepared to erupt forth at any moment to destroy everything before him.

Vajra Gene!

His vitality stat exceeded 50,000!

Feng Lin narrowed his eyes. His gaze gleamed with a silver light, and he could sense a vast unyielding force from the monk. This force felt overbearing and was as hot as the sun, not allowing any evil daos to exist along with it.

What was vajra (diamond)?

Undamageable, indestructible, unbreakable…

That was what vajra was!

The Vajra Gene allowed the monk’s body to instantly become as tough as a diamond, transforming him into the vajra protector of the Buddhist Sect in the myths. It represented a type of dao where evil couldn’t breach.

Although Feng Lin was clear on this point, he showed no signs of retreating.

BOOM!

With the momentum of his dive, he directly aimed for his opponent.

Ha!

The monk’s eyes flared with anger, like that of an angered vajra. He didn’t show any signs of retreating as well.

The two figures—one diving from the top and one fighting upward from the ground—clashed!

Qi waves churned wildly in their surroundings as wild winds kicked up, engulfing the two of them instantly.

Azure Dragon Claw Attack, Azure Dragon Tailwhip, Azure Dragon Rising!

It was like Feng Lin’s body was devoid of bones. He turned and twisted agilely in the air, causing numerous after-images to appear. His claws were sharp to the extreme, aiming for the vital parts of his opponent.

The monk was as stable as a mountain, standing in the horse stance. His arms protected his body, as secure as a city protected by a wall of metal and a moat of boiling water.

At the instant their fists and palms met, a terrifyingly sharp aura caused this entire level to tremble, echoing with thunderous booming noises.

Pilipala~

Feng Lin’s Azure Dragon Transformation was unleashed to the extreme. The entirety of his energy condensed together, transforming into lightning which shrouded him completely. His speed was greatly boosted as he flashed through the air.

The greatest difference between genetic martial arts and ancient martial arts was that genetic martial arts could make use of the power of mythological genes. One could use the moves of the genetic martial arts as a medium to control the power of heaven and earth.

This was something ancient martial arts that comprised solely of stances and moves alone couldn’t be compared to.

Tigers came from wind, dragons from clouds.

Clouds also produced lightning.

Crackle~

The lightning around Feng Lin intensified and was released. In the span of time it took to lift his hand, countless lightning bolts crashed down, brimming with a destructive aura.

Even though the monk transformed into a diamond vajra, when he fought against Feng Lin in a direct clash, the monk felt his arms going numb and his movements were slowed by 30%.

The two of them could be considered rare experts in the universe. In a fight, if one’s movements were slowed by 30%, their moves would naturally not be able to keep up and would involuntarily be fatal.

Bang, bang, bang!

Feng Lin instantly unleashed over ten attacks on the monk, causing the monk to retreat repeatedly.

Vajra Pounding Pestle, Vajra Carrying Cauldron, Vajra Subduing the Mountain!

The fists of the monk were like giant hammers sweeping forth horizontally in a majestic style, stimulating the Vajra Gene to the maximum. The vast energy gushed out and golden light clashed against lightning, causing both to be mutually extinguished.

At the center of their fight, their brutal clash manifested a vortex that was visible to the naked eye. The radiation was intense and the lines of light were distorted, causing the spectators to be unable to see clearly the scene on the battlefield.

The spectators could only see two blurry figures entangled together.

Outside the protective barrier, the eyes of every spectator were filled with fascination.

Just the aftershock produced by this battle was so destructive. If they were present at the scene, how terrifying would that be?

The path of mythological genes, the potential for transcendence truly caused one to feel some yearning and anticipation!

…

For these spectators, they were all wealthy and respectable, but for the majority of them, their cultivation bases weren’t high.

The fight between Feng Lin and the monk fully displayed the profound mysteries of mythological genes. These wealthy spectators couldn’t help but feel an itch in their hearts.

Bang, bang, bang!

After the sound of bare-handed fights echoing out, the sound of a cudgel hitting something manifested.

It was unknown when but Feng Lin now had a metal cudgel in his hand. He was executing the Great Sage Cudgel Arts.

The cudgel shadows weaved in circles and the powerful force caused the air to distort. The cudgel swept out horizontally, and the force behind it formed qi waves that gave rise to tornados as sharp as blades, leaving deep gashes on the ground’s surface.

Vajra Subduing Devil Staff!

The monk’s eyes flared with anger. His hands held his zen staff and danced about with it, forming a cluster of golden after-images.

The two weapons collided against each other. It truly felt like a battle between a dragon and a tiger.

The battle intent in Feng Lin’s eyes also intensified.

He could fight to his heart’s content. It had been a long time since he met such an opponent.

Earlier, he crushed everything effortlessly. It felt way too relaxed and boring.

The martial arts of the Buddhist Path emphasized on being tough and unyielding; they were of the Yang nature. Although there weren’t many transformations, their moves were all simple and exceedingly stable with only tiny flaws. Their might was extraordinary as well.

Feng Lin’s expertise with genetic martial arts wasn’t that extensive. He had only learned less than ten genetic martial arts. Therefore, It was inevitable that he would lose out in terms of moves.

However, this monk’s vajra fist was based on the principle of ‘no change surpassed all changes’. It was a good grindstone for him to temper himself.

Through the repeated clashes, Feng Lin gradually eliminated the dregs of his own move set, simplifying the complicated moves while retaining their essence as he perfected them.

And all of this transformed into genuine genetic potential.

Genetic potential +620, +620, +620…

The monk felt that he had to put in more and more effort. To his surprise, he discovered that this opponent of his was actually growing at a speed visible to the naked eye in the midst of a fight with him. If this continued, he would definitely lose after a while.

But the spectators didn’t have the skill to be able to realize this.

The host shouted loudly, “For the levels before this, Spirit Slayer Lin Feng crushed everything effortlessly. His easy manner of victory has now disappeared, being obstructed by Master Diamond. The two of them seemed evenly matched, can Lin Feng maintain his usual domineering victory streak? Or would Master Diamond be able to guard this level?…”

…

Upon hearing the voice of the host, the spectators involuntarily held their breaths.

Although Feng Lin knew that the host was trying to hype up the situation, he couldn’t help but feel silently unhappy when he heard that.

He hadn’t even unleashed the Monkey King Domain and his ability of endless transformations. What did the host mean by him being evenly matched with the monk?

It seemed like if he didn’t unleash his true abilities, others would look down on him.

Through repeated clashes, he already memorized the monk’s moveset and his own techniques were already simplified and perfected to a certain extent.

He didn’t want to delay things anymore.

Feng Lin’s heart stirred as his Heart Monkey Force frenziedly gushed out, channeled into his attacks.

Two times, three times, five times, ten times increase…

The enhancement provided by the Heart Monkey Force could pry open materialism laws.

The strength of his moves instantly exploded. Each attack was heavier than the previous one; each cudgel strike was fiercer than the previous one as well.

Bang, bang, bang!

He was like a metalsmith heavily smashing a piece of metal.

The monk’s face was flushed and his hands were trembling from the impact.

What was going on?

Why did his opponent’s strength suddenly rise so much?

What mythological gene had his opponent awakened exactly?

…

The monk’s face was filled with incredulity and his heart with disbelief.

The scene now completely exceeded his knowledge.

The Sun Wukong Mythological Path was a perfect mythological path that had never appeared before. The profound mysteries it contained were naturally unimaginable to others.

His moves remained the same, yet the power behind them was now completely different.

Strength overcomes everything!

The monk’s body swayed under the weight, and he staggered backward. Even his golden body showed signs of cracking.

BOOM!

Great Sage Chop!

Feng Lin then followed up with a hook punch. His Heart Monkey Force gave him a 10x enhancement in strength, and his fist was like a hammer, whistling through the air. This caused the atmosphere to be oppressive as light distorted. Even space was affected.

30x increase!

Abruptly, he focused the entirety of his Heart Monkey Force onto his fist. His strength instantly exploded forth with a 30x increase. He wanted to determine victory and defeat with a single move.

“What?” That monk had a shocked look on his face. When he felt the power of this punch, incomparable terror filled his heart.

He had to block this punch no matter what or he would surely lose!

Immobile Vajra!

The monk roared. His entire body expanded once more as he crossed his arms, transforming into an immovable Vajra, exuding an aura that nothing could move him.

But at the next instant, the punch landed.

His expression drastically changed. His eyeballs protruded out, and he felt like an entire mountain just slammed into him, completely dominating him. A moment later, he was flung through the air from the impact and slammed heavily onto the ground. His arms were both broken and the golden light from him also dimmed. He no longer had the strength to continue fighting.

“This…” The host’s mouth was wide open; he hadn’t even finished his speech yet. Originally, they looked to be evenly matched, but all of a sudden, one move ended everything. This caused him to be unable to react in time and he felt like his face had just been smacked. He could feel a burning sensation on his cheeks.

“Victor, Spirit Slayer Lin Feng!” He could only act nonchalantly as he named the victor.

“It ended so quickly!”

“I thought the host said that they were both evenly matched? Why did it end so quickly in an instant?”

“What has this Lin Feng done exactly?”

“What is this Lin Feng doing exactly?”

…

The spectators all discussed fervently. They discovered that it wasn’t easy for Feng Lin to display his methods, yet after he did so, none of them understood what they were seeing.

Right now, Feng Lin felt a little tired.

His eyes drooped as he silently mused that it wasn’t physical fatigue but mental fatigue instead!

With his spirit force, he swept through everything with invincibility and directly ascended 1,000 levels like flower viewing from horseback.

Although he only had one true opponent, he couldn’t help but feel sick of these easy victories in his heart.

When he thought of this, he no longer hesitated. He walked off the battlefield and went to the lodgings they had arranged for him. He then closed his eyes and began his meditation.

=====

Name: Feng Lin

Vitality stat: 48,200

Houtian Genes: Sun Wukong Gene x4; Cultivation Gene x3

Heaven Genes: Monkey King Gene x10; Daoheart Gene x10

…..

Genetic potential: 6,780

=====

After he recovered, he decisively added the free Houtian genetic point he had gained through the accumulations to the Sun Wukong Gene, strengthening it to 4 points. His vitality stat also reached a level that was very close to the 50,000 mark.

However, things weren’t concluded yet!

Feng Lin discovered that his pagoda points had unknowingly climbed up to over one million.

Pagoda points were useless outside and could only be used inside the Heaven Reaching Pagoda to exchange for cultivation resources. It would be a waste if he didn’t use them.

Feng Lin opened up the web net of the pagoda and began to browse.

Star sand, micro-mecha armor, genetic medicine, mythological remnants…There was everything here, but all these weren’t sufficient to pique Feng Lin’s interest.

One must know that he had seen too many of these things during his stay at the Great Wall University.

“Huaxia Mythology, Dragon Race Genetic Sequence diagram!”

Genetic Sequence diagram?

This type of diagram drawn Feng Lin’s attention the instant it appeared.
