Chapter 269: World in The Classic of Mountains and Seas

“World in the Classic of Mountains and Seas?”

“How is that possible?”

“That doesn’t make sense!”

…

Hearing Su Li’s reply, Aris and the others were immediately shocked.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas was a classic Huaxia’s myth and legend. Remnants of it were passed down and every interstellar cultivator would learn it.

It wasn’t something they were unfamiliar with.

Feng Lin also pondered.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas recorded the living creatures and terrain of ancient Earth. What was its connection with the newly discovered spiritual qi planet that was outside the Milky Way Galaxy?

The two were separated by countless light years and had no connection at all.

Su Li slowly spoke up, “The Classic of Mountains and Seas merely refers to a planet’s primitive condition when there was nothing but the wilderness. Spirit particles were highly active and could transform all sorts of rocks, trees, fowls, and beasts into a high-evolutionary condition that possessed lives and even intelligence. These are spiritual monsters! Spiritual monsters are born from nature, unlike demons. They don’t reproduce naturally and don’t cultivate. These three-headed birds bear a huge resemblance to the strange beast Qitu documented in the remnants of the Classic of Mountains and Seas in our tribe’s treasured collection. They have three heads and six tails, cry like humans laughing, and can bewitch one’s heart. Eating their flesh has the effect of warding off nightmares and calm the soul.”

“So that’s how it is!” Feng Lin recalled that Su Li came from the Huaxia Star Republic’s Green Hill Planet and took the Nine-tailed Fox Mythological Path. This was definitely not a coincidence.

The Classic of Mountains and Seas documented many mysterious places, and Mount Qingqiu was one of them. It was where the nine-tailed foxes were located.

The Green Hill Planet’s name came from the Mount Qingqiu, and they definitely have studied a lot into the Classic of Mountains and Seas.

(Can the flesh of the bird calm the soul?)

Feng Lin’s heart skipped a beat. It might be possible to use this flesh to develop a new gene potion.

A brand new spiritual qi planet in itself would be a tremendous treasure.

Other than letting them complete their mission, the other reason the Cultivation Association would send examinees here was also to provide them with an opportunity to seize resources to become stronger.

“Come and take a look!” Aris shouted as she held a set of feather clothing and she draped it on her body.

A swooshing sound rang out!

Her speed became extremely fast as she shot out like a silver laser beam. Her speed became three or four times faster than it had been before.

“This is a spiritual qi equipment!” Yana tapped on the information in her microchip. “Based on the records found by interstellar humans, this spiritual qi planet has a lot of spirit stones. The native intelligent races will use the spirit stones to create all sorts of strange spiritual qi equipment that have a variety of unbelievable effects! The Emerald Valley produces a type of metal-attribute spirit stone. And after it had been cut by these three-headed birds, the spirit stones were woven to form a spirit feather clothing. It can allow one to become as lithe as a swallow, and the person’s speed will increase tremendously!”

She pursed her lips and an intelligent glow radiated from her eyes. “The intelligence of the races here are enlightened by spirit crystals, and a top-notch spirit crystal object is the foundation of the races’ lives and reproduction. That spirit crystal bead is the greatest treasure of the Zheng Clan—the biggest tribe on this land. As long as we can snatch this item, the tribe would naturally fall into decline, and it would be much easier to conquer them. This is also the true objective of this examination. If we wish to take the first place, we must use the various strange objects in the world of the Classic of Mountains and Seas to strengthen ourselves. Our enemies aren’t just these native living creatures. Our greatest opponents are the other teams of examinees!”

Without any delays, Feng Lin didn’t say much and immediately took action.

They tracked the activity traces of the three-headed birds in the Emerald Valley and headed for their nests. Many huge pillar-like trees gradually appeared within their view. Trees, spirit stones, and many other strange objects formed their nests. There were artificial traces as if these were ancient constructions made by intelligent lifeforms during the primitive era.

There were a lot of nests, and they had formed the structure of a primitive tribe.

“Coocoocoo….”

As Feng Lin and the other four entered, chaos broke out in the three-headed birds’ tribe.

The many strong-looking three-headed monster birds wore spirit feather clothing. It was as if they were warriors wearing armors, pouncing forth fiercely.

There was no reason in a battle between intelligent lifeforms. Either party would have to die!

Feng Lin’s group took action without any hints of reservations.

Feng Lin’s figure wavered, turning into a three-meter-tall giant. His metal cudgel waved about, forming black shadows and sweeping through the enemies with a great force.

Under the cudgel’s attack, over ten three-headed birds were immediately crushed into meat paste.

Smashings by the battle statue, arrows raining down, Demonfire Shooting Star…

Aris, Yi, and Su Li each displayed their moves, killing without any restraints. They wiped out these three-headed birds of varying ages without holding back at all.

“Those not of the same race wouldn’t be of the same mind as us.”

They understood this theory. Being benevolent to the enemy would be cruel to themselves.

Wherever the team of five passed by, rivers of blood would flow and bird corpses piled up into mountains.

Screech!

An extremely infuriated shrill rang out.

A shadow was cast over their heads as a massive figure that was the size of a small hill came down on them.

They raised their heads and discovered that it was a huge bird whose wings would be over 20 meters long when spread out. The three heads it had were vibrant with colorful feather crown that looked like an actual crown.

“Coolala… jiejiekuo…” The heads kept on screeching out, and piercing sound waves spread out, causing their consciousness to sink into chaos.

“To think that you dare to kill my people. If I don’t tear you guys up into pieces and swallow you into my stomach, then I wouldn’t be called the Qitu King!…” Yana translated.

Massacring the three-headed birds had drawn the attention of the king of the birds.

Yana no longer held back her means, and a strange golden light encompassed her, forming a set of golden armor that covered her entire body. She was brimming with valiance as if the goddess of wisdom had returned to the mortal world.

Ding ding ding!

Yana put her hands together and a golden scepter appeared in them. She waved it and an invisible Mental Storm spread out, negating all of that sound waves that had a bewitching effect on their hearts.

Feng Lin and the others felt as if a huge burden had been taken off their shoulders.

“Wisdom Hoop!” Yana spoke softly and pointed out with her scepter, sending her mental energy spreading out. They condensed into a material form, forming three huge golden metal rings that suddenly contracted, restraining the Qitu King’s three heads.

The mental force seeped into their heads, stirring up their minds.

The Qitu King’s heads kept on shaking violently as they screeched non-stop in extreme agony.

Fanatic Song of Battle!

Yana swung her scepter once again. Having comprehended Athena’s divine role as a goddess of war, she performed the various means she had not used before.

Blood-boiling voices rang out in the sky, causing everyone’s blood to seethe and their wills to fall into a daze.

“Coo coo coo….”

A series of frantic cries rang out.

Many three-headed birds popped out from the surroundings, their eyes filled with craziness as if they had completely lost their cool. They started to attack their leader as well as kill each other.

After a short period of absence, a person had changed completely for the better.

Yana had just become an elite cultivator, and the first time she made a move, she displayed it extraordinarily.

The others didn’t lose out to her either.

Mental Fetters!

Feng Lin beckoned with his hand, and an invisible spiritual pressure came pressing down the surroundings. It was as if a massive mountain had come crashing down, causing the Qitu King’s body to sink and lay flat on the ground.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

Extremely sharp arrows shot through the sky.

Each arrow that shot out would take away an enemy.

The Qitu King wore a layer of feather armor that was extremely tough. However, the arrows pierced through the gaps of the armor. Blood gushed out, dyeing the ground red.

War God Hammer!

The giant battle statue’s fists clenched tightly and came crashing down like huge hammers, flattening the Qitu King’s heads.

Demonfire Shooting Star!

Boom boom boom.

Three huge balls of demonic flames came down fiercely, igniting the Qitu King’s body.

The team was completely in sync with each other, and they released a series of attacks without holding back.

The Qitu King’s appearance was very bold and strong, but it had been taken out immediately by the team after it had said harsh words.

“Withdraw!”

Feng Lin seemed to have sensed something with his spirit force and beckoned with his hand. A strange golden feather clothing appeared from the Qitu King’s body, shrank, and land in his hand.

As the spiritual qi equipment belonging to the king of the birds, this spirit feather clothing was thin as silk and light as air, but yet surprisingly sturdy.

Feng Lin used his strength to tug at it, but it didn’t suffer any damage.

“Yana, this spirit feather clothing is yours!” An idea popped up in his heart, and he gave this equipment to Yana.

“Me?” Yana was surprised.

“That’s right! The four of us are all battle-typed characters and our speed isn’t slow. You’re the only supporting character and lack the ability to protect yourself. With this equipment, your speed will increase tremendously. If you were to encounter danger, you’ll be able to handle it with ease!” Feng Lin smiled and looked toward the others. “In the future, when we hunt these native races and obtain all sorts of spiritual qi equipment, we’ll allocate them to the most suitable person based on their effects. This will strengthen our team’s powers in the best way possible. No matter how good the equipment is, they are just external items. What’s important is to obtain better results in the examinations. What does everyone think?”

Aris, Yi, and Su Li gave it some thought and nodded. They felt that this was really the best way to distribute the equipment.

With Yana’s intelligence, she naturally understood this as well. She didn’t stand on ceremony and put on the golden spirit feather clothing. Her face glowed with radiance as if she was a goddess. Her great beauty caused the eyes of the three men in the team to light up.

After taking care of the birds’ corpses, the team continued to move on and entered a cave.

A series of silvery-white light appeared before them, illuminating the enclosed space.

Light gleamed on the walls in the cave. They had been embedded with many translucent crystallized gemstones that had fog seething within them. Those turned out to be materialized spiritual qi.

All of a sudden, spiritual qi gushed out like tidal waves, instantly wrapping Feng Lin’s group. Their genetic power started to become extremely active.

Their countenances changed and they immediately sat down cross-legged, engulfing the thick spiritual qi that was permeating the air greedily.

The spiritual qi had no impurities at all and was the most precious resources for increasing one’s cultivation. Where could they find such a great cultivating environment?

Genetic potential +1.1, +1.1, +1.1…

Despite not taking any gene potion, the rate at which Feng Lin’s genetic potential was growing broke through the 1 genetic point threshold and surged rapidly.

The other four’s auras were also increasing at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye.

The world of the Classic of Mountains and Seas was an endless source of spiritual qi.

Feng Lin had the feeling that although the Cosmos Universities’ examination required them to go through a lot of training, it also presented them with a huge opportunity that provided them with ample cultivating resources. As long as the individual had the capability, they could get as much as they wanted.

He might be able to probe into the grand cultivator realm very soon.

After that, the team of five didn’t stop and headed for the Three-layer Mountain—their objective for this trip—with the Emerald Valley as their starting point. They hunted all sorts of native races and seized their resources to strengthen themselves.

Without realizing it, Feng Lin’s potential had grown to 216.8 and his Coercion Gene was already maxed out. He was only waiting for the evolution of his genes into the Beast King Gene.
