Chapter 729 T6

Actually, most people were unaware that the DNA samples at the Li Consortium’s psychiatric hospital had been stolen. At that time, the various consortiums had only just learned about supernatural beings, so they did not pay as much attention to it as they did now.

That was why the Pyro Company’s plan to steal the DNA samples had gone extremely smoothly back then. The psychiatric hospital was even only guarded by the private troops at that time, and such defensive measures were as good as none to the Pyro Company. If the Pyro Company had not unintentionally angered Qing Zhen, they might still be operating unopposed in the Southwest.

However, a lot of people would not have thought that two of the most powerful supernatural beings used to stay in a psychiatric hospital in the Southwest. It could even be said that the era of the Rise of the Gods had started with them.

Li Shentan, Chen Wudi.

When Vanilla found out about this, he instinctively felt that something was not right. He did not even know whether Li Shentan, who was next to him, was friend or foe. If another Demon Whisperer were to pop up here in the Sacred Mountains, who could deal with them?!

Moreover, this could be someone even more troublesome to deal with than the Demon Whisperer.

In the past, everyone’s understanding of the Pyro Company was that those in their fighting forces did not have any special powers at all. It was just their physical fitness that was much better.

Some people even wondered if the Pyro Company had really managed to replicate any of the superhumans’ powers after collecting so many of their DNA samples. If they did, why didn’t anyone encounter those clones before?

Since they were unable to clone an exact copy of those supernatural beings, why did they go through all that hassle to capture them?

But now, the canyon they were facing had proven the Pyro Company really did have the capability to replicate powers. Such unethical scientific practices had been going on in the Pyro Company all this time. It was just that the outside world did not know about it!

Rumor had it that there were still T6s above the T5s in the Pyro Company. Vanilla felt he could probably guess what kind of being a T6 was.

So the reason the Pyro Company had lured everyone to the Sacred Mountains this time was to create even more T6s? Li Shentan looked at Vanilla, who was frowning, and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, it’s actually not that scary.”

Vanilla looked at Li Shentan and thought to himself, ‘Don’t you know how terrifying you are?’ He snapped, “Let’s make this clear first: Don’t you hypnotize me. Let’s talk about the facts now. If there really is someone in these mountains who has the same power as you, it will truly be disastrous for all of us. So please tell us honestly, what should we do if we really encounter them?”

Li Shentan pondered it for a while. “It seems that there’s really nothing you all can do about it. You’re all too weak.”

Vanilla was irked. “Can you not be so blunt with your speech?!”

“But don’t worry, there’s someone in these mountains that not even I can do anything about.” Li Shentan laughed strangely. “If there really is another Demon Whisperer in the Sacred Mountains, that person will definitely give him a big surprise! Just the thought of it excites me!”

Vanilla felt a little helpless. He realized Li Shentan was excited for some reason. But when he thought about it carefully, he felt that something was not right. Li Shentan was actually admitting there was someone in the world he could not do anything about?

Just what would that person who could make a legendary supernatural being like Li Shentan ashamed of his inferiority be like?

Could it be Zhou Yingxue’s boss?! It wasn’t that difficult to connect the dots.

“Besides,” Li Shentan said with a smile, “the reason why supernatural beings can become supernatural beings is because of their willpower. What is willpower? It’s something that genetic predisposition determines the baseline of a person’s potential of, while their experiences and mentality decide how far they can go. How can a freak that was cloned possibly defeat me?”

As he spoke, Li Shentan exuded so much confidence it even felt tangible. This was the first time Vanilla had seen Li Shentan’s arrogant side.

Yes, this was exactly what the Demon Whisperer should look like as per the legends.

Vanilla was just about to say something, but he was surprised to see Li Shentan raising the little red flag again. “Alright, alright, don’t get distracted at the back; keep up with the group. Let me give you a simple explanation of this canyon. Look at the fine engravings on my left-hand side. It actually leads you to open up your subconsciousness as you advance through the canyon. Then there will be patterns that hint to your subconsciousness. Everyone, just take a quick look at it but not for a moment longer. Eyes back on the little red flag now. That’s right, keep moving forward with me…”

At some point, Vanilla felt that Li Shentan was really just like a tour guide. He even provided commentary along the way. Si Liren floated next to Li Shentan and asked softly, “Do you think there will really be another you out here?”

“Your question is not accurate.” Li Shentan corrected her, “There might be someone who has a similar power as mine, but it’s not another me.”

“Oh.” Si Liren nodded. “Then can you really defeat him?”

“Of course!” Li Shentan said. “Why?” Si Liren still did not understand Li Shentan’s confidence. “He might have undergone training here in the mountains for a long time and mastered many ways of killing people. But you? All you do every day is do magic tricks and mess around, so what makes you think that you can defeat him?” Li Shentan held the little red flag in one hand and fiddled with the exquisite silver coin in the other. He thought for a moment and said, “Because he’s incomplete.” “What’s he missing?”

“Whatever makes a person human.”

Si Liren stayed silent for a while before muttering, “Isn’t it because he doesn’t have me beside him?”

Si Liren had been questioning him all this while because she wanted to hear this answer. She did not care about the other reasons.

Li Shentan was taken aback for a moment. “That is quite a novel way of putting it…. But I agree that Little Liren is the best!” Si Liren laughed. “That’s more like it.”

…

On the other side, Cheng Yu and the others were already preparing to set up camp outside the canyon. Wang Yun had managed to save all of his own subordinates. Of course, it would be easy to say that they should leave the wounded behind, but none of the others would do that. Since their teammates were injured, they had to delay their journey temporarily.

Cheng Yu took a look at his cell phone. There was no signal when they were in the canyon. After exiting it, he received a text from the Anjing House: “The other teams have suffered heavy casualties.” Currently, six other teams were advancing towards the interior of the Sacred Mountains as well, and like them, they also encountered a canyon.

Nobody knew when the Pyro Company had built these canyons, but its purpose since it was constructed was to fend off external enemies by killing them.

When Ren Xiaosu saw the others preparing to set up their tents, he stopped them and said, “Don’t set up camp here.”

Someone looked at Ren Xiaosu. “Why? We have so many wounded teammates, so it won’t be possible to advance any further for now.” Another person said coldly, “If you want to leave the wounded behind, go into the mountains by yourself. We’re not leaving anyway.”

Wang Yun looked at Ren Xiaosu with great interest. He really wanted to know what this young man was trying to tell them.

Ren Xiaosu got up and beckoned to Luo Lan and the others to leave with him. As he got up, he said, “Setting up camp here is no different than waiting for death.”
