Super Gene Hunting Ground

Chapter 313: Chapter 313 Genetic Modification (Four more, please subscribe)

Master Long made a commanding presence the moment he appeared.

Sitting on the steps, Master Long was approximately 30 meters away from where the Iron Tower Guards were stationed. No one saw him approach; they only saw him suddenly emerge from the void, a method of movement that was truly astonishing.

Yang Xiao had once witnessed an Iron Tower Warrior assassinate Zuo Feiyang from Yundai Academy in the desert. The situation was the same as now; he covered several dozen meters instantly, appearing behind Zuo Feiyang, and killed him with a single sword strike.

Such speed was indeed formidable.

Yang Xiao suspected that this was a type of Cultivation Skill, capable of traversing short distances through space.

As for Master Long’s strength and combat power, there was no need to mention how effortlessly he shattered the Defensive Light Shield of the Iron Tower Guard.

Everyone respected Master Long profoundly, lowering their heads and chanting in unison:

”Master Long!”

Master Long nodded and said:

”Every person’s body has its own genetic evolution limit. Once your genes evolve to a certain extent, your Four Attributes can no longer grow. What I am going to teach you today is the Genetic Transformation Skill, modifying the genes in your bodies, allowing you to go further on the path of evolution.”

Genetic Transformation Skill?

Everyone was initially stunned, followed by a wave of elation.

The 138 City Kings present were all beyond the Enhanced Gene Level, and each had encountered bottlenecks to various degrees on the path of genetic evolution.

As the evolution level increased, everyone’s pace of evolution began to slow down. This was partly due to the scarcity of evolution resources, but it also involved the issue of evolutionary bottlenecks.

Some people, after reaching the Enhanced Gene Primary Level, could not advance despite consuming countless Genetic Potions, while others encountered the same problem upon reaching the Enhanced Gene Intermediate or High-Level.

As the only two King-level Evolvers, both Du Tianxing and Gu Beifeng had reached their evolution bottlenecks and could not improve any further.

If the Genetic Transformation Technique taught by Master Long were effective, it would mean that everyone could continue to enhance their genetic evolution and accelerate their improvement.

Everyone was filled with anticipation.

Master Long took a few steps in the center of the field and continued:

”The Genetic Transformation Technique I am teaching will be used in conjunction with the Genetic Transformation Potion. You 138 are the elite chosen from the entire Xuanming District to be the first batch to receive the Genetic Transformation Technique. After you learn it, we will also train other outstanding talents here.”

The crowd was secretly delighted, each filled with pride, being the first batch from the Xuanming District to enjoy this special treatment.

”The Genetic Transformation Technique I impart is divided into four stages: Body Refinement, Bone Forging, Yijin, and Marrow Cleansing.”

Everyone was startled, thinking how familiar this routine was—it was identical to the descriptions in the fantasy and cultivation novels before the apocalypse. Are we going to cultivate into immortals now?

Master Long ignored the surprised expressions and kept speaking:

”Body Refinement is simple. This building has 88 floors. Starting today, every morning, you must run from the third floor to the 88th floor, then from the 88th floor back to the third floor.”

Upon hearing this, the crowd laughed. Isn’t this very easy? These people were all Enhanced Gene Level powerhouses, and such a distance was no challenge at all.

Everyone had high Agility Attributes. Apart from three individuals at the Enhanced Gene Primary Level, the rest possessed Agility Attributes above 50 points. Could such training really refine the body?

Someone immediately said:

”Master Long, can you actually transform our genes this way? I can run back and forth ten times a day, no problem.”

”Yes, this exercise practically has no significance for us.”

”Master Long, could there be some mistake?”

...

Master Long smiled without a word and said:

”Good. Next, I will teach you all a Genetic Transformation Technique called Surging Wave Hitting Shore.”

Master Long then began to explain the detailed secrets of the Surging Wave Hitting Shore Technique, demonstrating as he lectured. One hour later, everyone had largely grasped the heart method secrets explained by Master Long.

”Good, now follow me and try to operate this technique.”

Master Long stood in the center of the hall, while everyone stood together, eyes slightly closed, beginning to cycle through the Surging Wave Hitting Shore Technique.

Yang Xiao realized that at first, when operating this heart method, there wasn’t much feeling in his body. However, as time passed, he gradually began to hear the sound of the waves.

The sound grew louder and more torrential, as if he was standing in the midst of the ocean, enduring the wash of the waves.

Everyone slowly entered the state.

Two hours later, Master Long asked everyone to stop cultivating.

Upon opening his eyes, Yang Xiao found his whole body drenched in sweat.

There was no heating on the third floor, and the windows had been opened at some unknown time. Although the indoor temperature was not as cold as outside, at least it was around minus ten degrees Celsius. Despite such low temperatures, everyone was covered in sweat.

Only then did everyone realize that this Surging Wave Hitting Shore Technique indeed had extraordinary effects.

Yang Xiao noticed that Master Long was also soaked in sweat, meaning he had operated the Surging Wave Hitting Shore Technique alongside everyone for two hours.

Yang Xiao glanced again at the eight Iron Tower Guards in the hall; they had no beads of sweat and probably had not cultivated along.

At this moment, the door to the hall opened, and a woman came in, handing two blue boxes to Master Long before turning and leaving.

Master Long opened one of the boxes and, with a gesture of his hands, whoosh—a multitude of blue crystal vials flew out from the box, hovering in mid-air.

Yang Xiao knew that Master Long was using a Spiritual Control Technique.

With a wave of his hand, the blue crystal vials in mid-air flew towards the 138 students present.

”This Genetic Transformation Potion is for you all. Drink it now.”

Yang Xiao reached out and grabbed a crystal vial from the air, uncapped it, tasted a sip—it was slightly bitter—but he didn’t think much and gulped it down.

A current of electricity instantly surged throughout his body.

Ah!

Yang Xiao screamed in agony, feeling as if thousands of insects were biting within his body, the discomfort was extreme.

Meanwhile, everyone who had drunk the potion was in a similar condition; all began to howl in pain, some even couldn’t bear it and fell to the ground, writhing.

Master Long ignored this, also tilting his head back to down a vial of Genetic Transformation Potion.

Fortunately, that extreme discomfort didn’t last too long, subsiding after about ten minutes or so.

However, those ten minutes felt as long as a month for everyone.

Yang Xiao felt something unusual in his body, as if a potent energy was trying to burst out from within.

Master Long opened the other box and with another wave of his hand, golden necklaces flew out.

”Put these necklaces around your necks, and no one is to take them off. Then exit through the doorway, take the stairs, and run to the 88th floor. I will be waiting for you on the 88th floor. Remember, anyone who takes off their necklace will lose the qualification to continue the training.”
