Chapter 175: Gene Lock

Translator: Lordbluefire  Editor: Lordbluefire

Feng Lin sat cross-legged as his chest heaved. His muscles rose up and down along with the rhythm of his breath, like an undulating wave. Currents of warmth circulated through his eight extraordinary meridians and felt like hot lava. At the next moment, the feeling was like a volcano on the verge of an eruption.

Genetic potential +36%, +36%, +36%…

After three days of assiduous cultivation, as he continually consumed perfect-grade potions of life, his genetic potential surged up to 1268%.

However, Feng Lin was also clear that this feeling of happiness due to the rapidly surging genetic potential was almost at an end.

These perfect-grade potions of life were obtained from the Flowerfruit Mountain Flying Shuttle, something left behind by the Giant Pharmaceutical Company. However, they had almost been fully consumed by him. Therefore, it was going to be extremely difficult if he wished to advance at the same speed.

However, that was a future issue. For now, there was no need for him to be anxious.

Once again, Feng Lin obtained a free primeval genetic point.

Now, for Mental Gene, Spirituality Gene, and Psychokinesis Gene, all of them were strengthened to the max and had achieved the conditions for the evolvement of Spirit Gene. He only needed one final step before he would succeed.

The Spirit Gene was a high-grade primeval gene, only one grade lower compared to the Stone Monkey Gene. After the gene was awakened, its abilities would be extremely bizarre, combining mental hypnosis, psyforce control, and spirituality perception altogether, fusing them as one. There was no form to it and could be launched from a distance. It would allow the user to possess many unimaginable methods that others would find it extremely difficult to defend against.

The interstellar college exam was arriving soon, and any increase in strength was exceptionally important. If Feng Lin could control a second primeval gene, then he would be able to greatly enhance his strength.

Also, the Spirit Gene was a long-distance control-type ability. It could completely support the Stone Monkey Gene that specialized in close-combat. In this case, in the future, Feng Lin could excel in both close-combat and long-distance combat, and would have no flaws at all. One plus one equaled more than two. The abilities of the Spirit Gene would definitely synergize very well with his Stone Monkey Gene, allowing his strength to be enhanced greatly.

Hence, Feng Lin was filled with anticipation with regards to evolving the Spirit Gene.

His vitality stats had broken past 90 and he could already be considered a peak-level interstellar cultivator, reaching the major completion stage. However, he wasn’t satisfied with this.

Because, he was very clear that the interstellar college exam spanned across the entire universe!

The geniuses among humanity in the entire universe would gather together to take the same exam. How grand of an occasion would that be? The experts would be as common as clouds, simply unimaginable.

There would always be someone stronger, and there would always be a taller mountain.

You would never know how strong your opponents were until you came face to face with them.

An inconsequential interstellar cultivator basically couldn’t be considered anything. Only elite cultivators and above had sufficient advantage.

Hence, now Feng Lin had maxed out his Stone Monkey Gene, but he had not awakened the Spirit Gene yet. Although his vitality stats was considered high now, he was only halfway there on the path of becoming an elite cultivator.

Awakening the Spirit Gene was imminent. Once he successfully awakened the Spirit Gene, he would immediately add a primeval genetic point and strengthen it, increasing his spirit force.

Everything was prepared, and only the final step was left.

With his prior experience of awakening the Stone Monkey Gene, Feng Lin already knew what to expect, His mind slowly sank into his inner world as the human genetic map appeared clearly before his eyes.

Three large golden stars were shining resplendently. These were none other than the maxed-out Psychokinesis, Mental, and Spirituality Gene, the three genes that made up the system for the Spirit Gene.

Feng Lin used his will to control the three genes, enabling them to fuse.

The three stars sparkled brightly, and a wave of astral light that was like the clear spring water was flowing out from each of the golden stars as they gathered together.

These three completely different types of energy were like three streams merging into a great river. They continued to expand the river as they extended forward toward the depths of the starry ocean.

The flow of the river wasn’t sluggish. It continued with no delay and finally reached the endpoint.

A dark star could be seen in the distance, no hints of fluctuation could be felt from it. But when the energy of the star river flowed into it, thumping sounds of a heart could be heard as though that dark star was slowly awakening.

The star river was like a powerful current, filling up the dark star with boundless energy, wanting to awaken it completely.

Bubble~ The starry space trembled!

Feng Lin only managed to see a barrier of astral light manifesting and blocking the star river. It refused to allow the energy within it to continue flowing into the dark star.

Eh?

Feng Lin was shocked. He could feel that the dark star was locked by a formless energy. No matter how he urged his genetic energy to barge through it, it was useless.

The dark star continued flickering, sometimes bright and sometimes dark. It seemed to be on the verge of awakening, yet it was locked by the formless force. It had no way to awaken completely.

Is this a gene lock?

Feng Lin thought of an extremely important detail in mythological knowledge.

The mythological genes were passed down from ancient times and had always remained in the bodies of humans, never disappearing completely.

But why were humans of the Ancient Earth Era unable to awaken it to control transcendent forces?

The reason was because of genetic locks. The genetic locks restricted the potential of human’s body, as well as the boundless possibilities.

It lasted until humanity left the solar system and found the existence of spirit particles. Through cultivation, they could absorb the spirit particles to temper and refine their bodies, slowly breaking through the gene locks and embarked on a path leading to transcendence.

Every time one awakened a high-grade gene or stronger, not only must one matched the strengthening tally of the previous genes according to the correct genetic formula, but they also needed to depend on their talent and stimulation from external conditions before they could synthesize and evolve lower-tier genes, fusing them into one and breaking through the limitations of gene locks.

But why hadn’t he encountered a gene lock as he awakened his Stone Monkey Gene?

Feng Lin felt that this was strange. When he awakened the Stone Monkey Gene, everything felt as natural as water flowing into a canal. He didn’t encounter any bottlenecks. This caused him to think that evolving genes would rarely need to depend on external conditions. It seemed like this theory wasn’t on point.

A gene lock was definitely the issue!

Feng Lin meticulously thought back to his experiences. By cross-referencing his current cultivation experiences and the common cultivation knowledge he had gained from the Mythology Forum, he had some speculations.

Maybe, the reason was simply because his talent was immensely high in the Sun Wukong Mythology Pathway.

For this body he was in, his background was ordinary and had no cultivation resources. His cultivation methods were those most common ungraded genetic breathing methods, yet even in such inferior conditions, he still managed to awaken the Monkey Gene and Stonebirth Gene. From this, one could see that his talent on the path of monkeys was truly extraordinary.

He wasn’t a trash thought of by many. It was just that he was walking on an unusual path of no precedence.

This point was similar to Zhu Tiangang who had awakened the genes necessary for the Pigsy Mythology Path. He had an unrivaled talent for this path, and his progress would be extremely natural as though gene locks didn’t exist for him.

If Zhu Tiangang was destined to soar forth with great momentum on the path of becoming a pig. Why should he have any complaints seeing that he was on the path of the monkey…?

Although this was a good thing, Feng Lin felt an indescribable emotion.

Tossing aside these distractions, Feng Lin returned to the main topic.

Cultivation stated that one must defy the heavens, but one must find a natural advantage and continue pressing in all the way. If one tried to forcefully acquire something, that would only be a waste of time and there wouldn’t be a good ending.

What was the external condition he needed after awakening the Spirit Gene?

There was no way for him to seek the answer from elsewhere, he had to seek the answer from his cultivation.

Feng Lin instinctively thought of his cultivation method where he absorbed astral energy from the stars.

Astral energy was one of the purest energies in the universe. It wasn’t extreme at all and was very neutral with no other impurities. It could temper the heart and minds of people, boosting their mental strength.

If he absorbed large amounts of astral energy essence and boosted his mental strength to the peak, he would surely be able to shatter the gene lock, right?

In the Interstellar Era, all cities had immensely large buildings and skyscrapers, blocking the natural light from the sky. Cities weren’t a good location to absorb energy!

Naturally, to absorb astral energy essence, a place that had a distance furthest from the surface of the Earth would be the best. There, nothing would be obstructing him.

Although Feng Lin had a personal flying shuttle, he still wasn’t able to survive in outer space unless the nature of his existence could be evolved to a certain extent that was equivalent to universe creatures. Hence, he could only toss this notion of going to outer space aside.

Which place on Earth had a distance furthest away from its surface?

A smile appeared on Feng Lin’s face. He had already thought of an optimal location.

He didn’t hesitate and left his residence immediately. He then sat on a flying mobile as he sped toward a certain location on Earth.

The Earth’s circumference was at most slightly more than 40,000 kilometers, and modern transportation could reach anywhere in an hour.

Very soon, half an hour passed.

The traveling speed was very swift. Soon after, Feng Lin saw a majestic snowy mountain that extended up into the sky, just like a sky pillar. The white snow was like a beautiful blanket, covering everything with natural whiteness.

This was the Himalayas, Mount Everest!

The tallest mountain on Earth, the third pole of the world!

In the Ancient Earth Era, this was once a forbidden place for humans as many would die upon attempting to climb its peak.

But in the Interstellar Era, this place was a holy ground for the interstellar cultivators!
