Super Gene Hunting Ground

The ground of the large Transmission Array was inscribed with an abundance of bizarre runes, and there were also some special device systems.

Long Wei gave a nod to one of his subordinates in black clothing, who walked to the center of the Transmission Array and took out a purple sphere the size of an egg from the Space Ring, placing it inside a mysterious device.

A purple light flashed, and various strange runes on the ground began to flicker, immediately causing Yang Xiao and the others to feel a powerful aura that was breathtaking.

Long Wei glanced over at everyone and said:

”Alright, everyone follow me into the Transmission Array.”

Long Wei took the lead, followed by Gu Beifeng, Du Tianxing, Yang Xiao, and the other 22 individuals participating in the training, as well as five black people, who all entered the Transmission Array.

Weng!

A huge halo rose up.

Long Wei reached out and tapped the halo, which suddenly became intensely bright. Yang Xiao and the others immediately felt darkness before their eyes, entering the mysterious transmission channel.

Yang Xiao and the others did not know how much time had passed when suddenly, their vision brightened, and they appeared in a new place.

Looking around, they all felt a shock at heart; just a hundred meters away stood the familiar Pyramid.

They had really arrived in Tianzhou!

Long Wei led the group out of the Transmission Array and was immediately greeted by a man in a black cloak who exchanged a few words with Long Wei, then took the lead, guiding everyone to a large tent nearby to rest.

Yang Xiao carefully observed that in the vicinity, there were dozens of tents, and outside many of the tents, people were present—some sitting, some standing—with diverse complexions and appearances, probably from all over the world.

Around them, there were many people in black cloaks, as well as dozens of Iron Tower Warriors, all clad in silver Armor, obviously of a higher rank than the Iron Tower Warriors Yang Xiao had seen outside the Genetic Store in Nanmu City with black Armor.

Long Wei led Yang Xiao and others to a large tent and declared:

”For now, you all should rest inside the tent. Here, no one is allowed to move around freely. You can only move within ten meters of the tent. In case of special circumstances, you must report, and without permission, anyone who leaves on their own will be executed without mercy.”

As Long Wei spoke the last word, it was delivered with a strong Killing Aura, making everyone’s heart sink and a chill rise from the bottom of their hearts, causing them all to tremble slightly and not dare to speak more.

Yang Xiao and the others entered the tent to rest, while the five men in black cloaks brought by Long Wei immediately stood at the four corners around the tent to surveil everyone.

Yang Xiao’s tent and those surrounding were separated by more than twenty meters, with a few Iron Tower Warriors standing in between.

The tent was a simple shelter from the wind and rain, with nothing extra inside and dry sand on the ground.

Everyone sat on the sandy ground.

Someone murmured,

”Damn it, why do I feel this doesn’t seem like training, but more like heading to the execution grounds?”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s heart skipped a beat.

Gu Beifeng said in a deep voice:

”Don’t talk nonsense!”

Du Tianxing also said:

”Isn’t this normal? It’s just that there are more people coming, and they’re worried everyone will run around and cause conflicts. You have to understand these are all King Level Evolvers. If a fight breaks out over a disagreement, things would escalate quickly.”

...

While everyone was chatting on the side, Yang Xiao sat on the ground, eyes half-closed.

Zhao Benling was sitting next to Yang Xiao and poked him, whispering:

”Brother, what do you think?”

Yang Xiao did not answer directly but changed the subject, saying:

”Did you arrange matters at home for your subordinates before you left?”

”No, who knew we’d be out for a year? Had I known, I would have given instructions. I’m actually a bit worried now. What if there’s internal trouble while we’re out Cultivating, and everything becomes a mess?”

”Don’t worry, I have already arranged everything. Long Yongjun from Wuji Mountain will help take care of your brothers.”

Zhao Benling laughed and said:

”You’re the impressive one, brother, for having foresight.”

Yang Xiao glanced at Zhao Benling and then swept his eyes around before writing a few words in the sand with his finger:

”Be cautious of safety”

As he wrote each character, he promptly erased it.

Zhao Benling felt a sudden pang in his heart as he saw this and asked Yang Xiao in a whispered voice:

”Did you discover something?”

”Shh!”

Yang Xiao made a ’silence’ gesture and then closed his eyes slightly, not saying anything further.

Zhao Benling naturally understood that discussing matters in this place could very likely be overheard by the black-cloaked figures outside; all of whom had higher cultivation than them and exceedingly keen hearing.

Everyone stayed inside the tent for a while but felt rather stuffy, so they went out and did some simple limb movements around the tent.

Seeing everyone come out, the black-cloaked figures around them immediately looked over warily, even reaching their hands to the longswords at their waists.

Luckily, Gu Beifeng and the others didn’t dare to cross the line; everyone kept their activities within ten meters of the tent and didn’t dare to wander off, which caused the black-cloaked men to relax ... their tense mood slightly.

Yang Xiao noticed that there were people standing around several nearby tents as well, and from their facial features and attire, one could roughly tell they were people from Ice Wolf Island, Yunpan Country, and the Southern Country.

”It seems people from the Wuji Region are all here.”

...

In the afternoon, a black-cloaked man walked over and took out a ten-meter-long Tianzhou leopard from his space ring and threw it in front of Yang Xiao and the others’ tent, saying:

”Dinner’s ready.”

Then he continued walking on to the next tent, taking out another monster’s corpse from his space ring and throwing it on the ground before moving on.

Yang Xiao and the others were not shy about it and each took out their sharp longswords to skin the Tianzhou leopard, cutting off large chunks of flesh and devouring it heartily.

These King Level Evolvers were all capable of enhancing their evolution energy by consuming the flesh and blood of mutant monsters, so raw consumption had become a habit for them.

In about half an hour, the ten-meter-long Tianzhou leopard had been completely devoured by everyone.

At night, everyone crowded inside the tent to sleep and rest. There were no lights outside, but the black-cloaked men and the Iron Tower Warriors were still standing there.

The atmosphere was somewhat eerie.

Zhao Benling slept next to Yang Xiao and asked softly:

”Brother, why do I have a bad premonition?”

”Don’t think too much. Just sleep. Resting up is more important than anything else.”

After saying this, Yang Xiao closed his eyes to sleep.

Zhao Benling paused in bewilderment, sighed helplessly, and also lay down on the ground to sleep.

For three dull and oppressive days, everyone was feeling extremely restless. Because of the oppressive aura from the black-cloaked men and the Iron Tower Warriors around them, they didn’t dare to rebel.

On the third day at noon, while everyone was outside the tent basking in the sun and idly chatting about various topics, suddenly a distant rumbling like thunder came rolling in.

After a brief moment, the rumbling grew louder and louder.

Yang Xiao raised his head to look and saw a black dot appearing in the distant sky.

The dot grew closer and clearer.

The rumbling got heavier, and even the grains of sand on the ground began trembling slightly.

Everyone stood up, looking up at the distant sky with wide eyes and open mouths, full of astonishment.

In the sky, a gigantic disc was slowly flying towards them.

Yang Xiao estimated that the massive disc was the size of a soccer field, silver-gray in color, and surrounded by a ring of blue light.

”Is this... this the legendary UFO?”

(Today there will only be two updates, as the plot is transitioning and I need some time to write a detailed outline. I just started work today and there’s a lot to do, but there will be a burst of updates in a few days.)
