Hunted medium-scale queen: 1, guard-type 58, prowler-type 360…

Hunted medium-scale queen: 1, guard-type 61, prowler-type 382…

Hunted medium-scale queen: 1, guard-type 62, prowler-type 408…

…

A medium-scale mother nest was at least three times larger compared to a small-scale mother nest, and its defenses were stronger by at least five times… By logic, the difficulty in invading it would naturally be extremely high.

However, Feng Lin used the Art of Transformations, creating confusion by passing off the spurious as genuine. He bewildered the aberrations as he easily snuck inside and rushed straight into the enemy’s den, killing the medium-scale queen.

After he succeeded, Feng Lin’s group repeated their actions and started harvesting the points by slaughtering the poor aberrations.

After the queen was killed, those ferocious aberrations were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. They were completely helpless and had no way to resist. Very soon, the points they were gaining kept on surging up madly, to a level so high that people would be shocked.

Feng Lin did some calculations and discovered that his points were roughly over 700,000. The Greek sisters also respectively reached 450,000, and 250,000.

Aris’s combat prowess was higher than Yana. With the principle of fairness, she naturally gained more.

After that, they headed to yet another mother nest.

Shriek~

Another piercing scream rang out.

The metal cudgel in Feng Lin’s hand transformed into a long spear gleaming with sharpness as he pierced the spear through the medium-scale queen, hanging it high up in the air and freezing it under the bitter cold.

The cold wind was like blades slashing at the queen as it struggled madly, with its tentacles and claws writhing in pain.

But under the power of nature, its green-colored blood instantly turned to ice the moment it flowed from its wounds. Ice crystals formed around the queen and a few moments later, the queen turned into a giant ice sculpture.

Hei!

Feng Lin roared as he leaped into the air. He retracted the spear and swung it out, transforming it back to the shape of a cudgel as he willed it to expand. It was like a gigantic sky pillar that smashed downward, causing waves of power to radiated forth everywhere it passed by.

BOOM!

The giant pillar smashed into the ice sculpture. The powerful force along with the formless spirit energy infused into it, causing cracks to rapidly extend through the ice sculpture.

Crackle~

Spider web-like cracks spread rapidly, instantly shattering the sculpture. The corpse of the queen was also dismembered from the impact.

Feng Lin acted quickly and sliced off the thumb as well as the nutritious gene hypophysis of the queen.

After the queen was killed, this mother nest got easily dominated by them.

The other aberrations fled away like loser dogs. The Greek sisters also moved quickly, hunting down these aberrations.

However, Feng Lin simply stood at his original location unmovingly. He searched for a clean place and sat down cross-legged before closing his eyes.

A desperate foe shouldn’t be pursued!

Although these fleeing aberrations had no battle intent, if one was to force them to the edge, they would also give it their all, trying to kill their pursuers.

Feng Lin had already killed the boss of the mother nest whose points were worth far more compared to the other aberrations. He naturally didn’t mind letting the Greek sisters settle the other fleeing aberrations.

After a day of slaughter, even Feng Lin with his strong mental power felt intense fatigue. He might as well take this chance to recover some of his strength.

After every great battle, humans would be tempered in the fires of combat, and this was the best chance for one to grow rapidly. If he didn’t cultivate now, when would he choose to cultivate?

His surroundings were filled with corpses and blood, causing a foul smell to permeate the atmosphere. It was like hell on earth.

Feng Lin sat there calmly with no joy nor anger on his face. He was like the Buddha Ksitigarbha descending into hell after gaining enlightenment. Even if he was inside Asura Hell, his heart shall be untainted by dust.

There were no ripples in his heart and no thoughts in his mind.

The gene hypophysis of a small-scale queen was as large as a human head. The smell it exuded was terrible. Feng Lin bore with the discomfort in his heart as he consumed it.

Pu!

The blood spurted out as the vile smell of it shot right into his brain. However, it was soon converted into currents of warmth that replenished the nutrients of his empty body despite the disgusting taste.

As he activated the art of transforming energy into qi, his stomach was like a fire stove, rapidly digesting and refining what he had just eaten.

Genetic potential +89%, +89%%, +89%…

The life energy of the queen was transformed into nutrients that nourished Feng Lin’s body, causing his genetic potential to surge.

Currents of warmth flowed rapidly within him, granting him a sense of comfort.

His vitality stat also began to increase in small increments, from 319, 320, 321… all the way to 326.

And due to stimulation of the smell and the taste of blood of the gene hypophysis, as well as the bloody aura through his endless combat, Feng Lin abruptly discovered that in his genetic map, a hidden dark star started to shine as a message appeared before his eyes.

=====

Gene: Bloodthirst Gene

Grade: High-grade basic gene

Strengthening Tally: 0

Ability: Drinking blood through slaughter, feasting on the weak

=====

This was actually a basic gene from a branch tree of the Beast King Gene and was now in a half-awakened state.

The Bloodthirst Gene needed the bloody aura before it could be stimulated?

Feng Lin opened his eyes and a bright light gleamed within.

Different genes had different awakening conditions. The lower the tier of the particular gene, the easier the conditions would be.

He seemed to have unexpectedly found a method to stimulate the Bloodthirst Gene and awakened it. In that case, what was he waiting for?

Feng Lin instantly took out a gene hypophysis belonging to a medium-scale queen and swallowed it. The smell of vile blood instantly shot up into his brain as the dark star representing the Bloodseeking Gene glowed with a radiance that was incomparable to earlier.

Could it be that the stronger a lifeform was, the more energy their blood held? Could it cause the stimulation effect to be even stronger?

Feng Lin had a conjecture.

Although the gene hypophysis of a medium-scale queen was very hard to obtain, as long as he could use it to strengthen himself, Feng Lin wouldn’t be stingy. If he used it up, he could just hunt for another one.

He instantly took out the remaining medium-scale queen’s gene hypophysis and placed it in his mouth. The effect instantly showed.

The thick bloody smell instantly shot up into his mind, and the dark star began to glow with unprecedented brightness, like a new star being born.

However, for a river that had no source, it wouldn’t be able to be sustained for long.

Feng Lin instantly swallowed it and injected his genetic potential within as well.

The Bloodthirst Gene seemed to obtain another intense stimulant and instantly transformed, growing brighter and brighter. Its strengthening tally also changed from 0 to 1.

Feng Lin didn’t stop, in one breath, he added nine free basic genetic points into it, expending 900% of his genetic potential.

With enough genetic potential, he was like a wealthy man. The moment he awakened the Bloodthirst Gene, he instantly enhanced it to 10 points, maxing it out.

What use did this gene have?

Drinking blood in slaughter, feasting on the weak

Feng Lin contemplated the gene’s power. He had some faint guesses in his mind. Next, he instantly took out a gene hypophysis of a small-scale queen and swallowed it. He immediately felt a huge difference after that.

The originally nasty and vile blood now tasted as sweet as honey when the gene hypophysis entered his mouth. It transformed into currents of warmth that seeped into the depths of his body, nourishing every part of it. His vitality stat began to climb as his fatigue vanished.

Vitality stat 328, 330, 332… His vitality stat’s growth rate was twice as fast compared to before.

Feng Lin finally understood in his heart.

The natural law was incomparably cruel. The weak were food for the strong.

This Bloodthirst Gene allowed one to devour the blood of living creatures, to replenish the user’s strength. The user could continue fighting on, using the spoils of battle to nurture battle, greatly increasing one’s combat endurance.

The more powerful the biological creature was, the more nutritious its blood would be. By theory, one would be able to fight on indefinitely, not knowing fatigue.

One couldn’t help but say that this Bloodthirst Gene was as expected of a high-grade basic gene. Its supportive effect in battle was extremely great.

In combat, the greater one’s endurance, the longer they could persist for and naturally, the higher the chance of winning.

(So, the stronger a lifeform is, the more nutritious its blood will be?)

Feng Lin’s heart stirred. When he saw the Greek sisters walking back to him from afar, he suddenly spoke.

When they heard his words, the two sisters were completely stunned.

“What? You want to hunt a large-scale aberration queen?”
