Chapter 88: 88

There was a burst of Gene Arcana spreading rapidly throughout his body .

Ling Jiu felt as if his body was going to explode so he quickly performed Sea of Hundred Rivers to regulate his billowing Gene Arcana .

He had lost track of time . By the time he kept them under control, he felt his internal strength had become much vigorous .

“If the intermediate Gene Arcana-enhancement fluid can produce such result, just how much greater the result of advanced Gene Arcana-enhancement fluid can be?”

Ling Jiu was unsatisfied . “Had I been able to get my hands on the advanced Gene Arcana-enhancement fluid, I would have achieved a Level-Five breakthrough . ”

“Forget it . I’d better make the best of the remaining time by practicing more!”

Ling Jiu shook the thought out from his mind, performed Sea of Hundred Rivers again to inhale the Gene Arcana in his surroundings .

As soon as he did that, he felt a rich Gene Arcana gathering from all directions and storming into his body .

“This… this Gene Arcana is incredibly concentrated!” Ling Jiu opened his eyes in amazement . “The concentration level is at least ten times that of the outside world . Damn! This place is heaven for practicing self-cultivation!”

Ling Jiu was shivering in excitement . He frenziedly captured the Gene Arcana in the surroundings to boost his internal strength .

Time had passed unknowingly . He felt the Gene Arcana in his body running wildly throughout his body, as if it had broken free from shackles .

They moved up to his brain and down to his feet . Every part of his body contained a rich amount of Gene Arcana, circulating throughout his body in an endless cycle .

At this moment, Ling Jiu felt a quality of lightness in him, as if he were a weightless feather that could flew into the sky with just the tap of his foot .

“My body feels so light…”

Ling Jiu mumbled . With just a slight support from the flowing osmium soil, he was able to float into the air, just like what Jin Chao, the general manager of Vulcan, did last time .

“Is this Royal Hover?”

Ling Jiu tried again and found that he could float into the air effortlessly by harnessing the osmium soil . However, it was hard for him to move in the air .

That was because he had only a vertical without lateral movement ability .

Apparently, with Earth Manipulation, he could only perform Rover Hover but not fly free like a bird .

“Let’s try Gravity!”

Ling Jiu retrieved the osmium soil . With Gravity force as the support, he floated again . He adjusted the force behind him so now it turned horizontal and forward . He could move horizontally .

“I am flying!” Ling Jiu was excited .

When he first gained the Gravity Arcana, he already knew he could use it to fly . But he was too busy in his cultivation and had no time trying it out .

He did not expect he could succeed on his first try . It was surprisingly easy .

“But flying seems like an art . I could only fly at low speed . Wanting to use flying as a combat skill is impossible right now . It takes time . ”

Combat?

He certainly knew no way he could use flying in combat right now . With his current speed of flying and dodging, he looked like a big bull’s-eye in the air .

That said, Ling Jiu’s flying skill had in fact surpassed that of many Level-5 or even Level-6 arcanists .

Only Level-7 arcanists could perform an actual flight . But he had done it in Level-5 .

“How much time left?”

He checked his mobile phone . It was 20:00 hours on Wednesday, four hours to go before the clock hit 00:00 .

“Four more hours to go . I have got to make the best of it . ”

Four hours quickly passed and an ear-piercing sound of the bell rang throughout the cultivation chambers . “Self-cultivation practice session has ended . All trainees are required to leave the chambers immediately . ”

“D*mn it! This loud announcement in the middle of the night terrified the hell out of me!”

Ling Jiu dug into his ringing ears and quickly left the cultivation chamber .

…

Early next morning, Ling Jiu departed alone . Except for Shi Gang, Ai Yuhe and Yang Ling-er did not intend to form a team . This was in line with Ling Jiu’s thinking because he did not want to form a team either .

After renting some tools, Ling Jiu drove his maglev airship and flew toward the wilderness as quickly as the airship could go .

This time, he did not hunt any Direbeasts along the way . Instead, he headed straight into the deeper part of the wilderness, arriving at the danger zone where powerful Direbeasts lay .

After becoming a Level-5 arcanist, Ling Jiu was more confident of his ability . He made Class-6 Direbeasts as his target and would go it alone .

As soon as he switched on the radar, he instantly saw the signals . There were thirty-over Class-6 Direbeasts within 10 kilometers radius . What did that mean for him?

It only took one or two Class-6 Direbeasts to break defense and unleash total destruction to a city of 5 million population like Lantian Base City .

Thinking back, a Bloodgorger Bat nearly brought down the defense of Lantian Base City last time . The destruction of these 30 or so Class-6 Direbeasts could bring would be unimaginable .

“I have two missions this time . One, find Compound-Eyed Wombats, harvest their eyes for making the Second Awakening potion . Two, hunt as many Class-Six Direbeasts as possible . Today’s target: hunt eighty of them!”

Ling Jiu licked his lips . Since he was going solo this time, he wanted to liberate his combat strength to the max .

Next, he teleported himself to appear in front of a Class-6 Direbeast .

Before he got close, he could already hear a snoring noise that sounded like the rumble of thunder . And before the Direbeast knew it, he had come in front of it .

Ling Jiu’s eyes brightened up when he saw this Direbeast . He knew he had got lucky this time because it was a Compound-Eyed Wombat he had been looking for .

“Eightfold Rolling Thunder!”

He performed a Tungsten Form and smashed the Direbeast’s head with a punch . His combat strength had gained a tremendous breakthrough after he became a Level-5 arcanist .

1

The attack range of his Earth Manipulation Arcana had increased to 200 meters .

His Teleportation Arcana had increased in range to 200 meters .

The force of his Gravity Arcana had risen to ten times the normal gravity .

When he was in Tungsten Form, his strength was 200 times higher than normal .

What about Shadowform? Leave this to another time .

Bang!

The Tungsten Formed punch, carrying energy powerful enough to destroy everything, hit the Compound-Eyed Wombat on the head .

Blood and brain splattered at the sound of the cracking of the skull .

The Compound-Eyed Wombat’s snoring stopped . While in its sleep and before it could perform its replicated arcana, Ling Jiu had crushed its skull .

Poor guy .

This showed how terrific, brutal, overwhelmingly powerful the combination of Teleportation and Tungsten Form was .

“What about Mach-10 speed?”

“My Teleportation is the quickest and most elusive in terms of speed!”
