Chapter 1945 Luo Ji's Guess
Seven Spirit had four faces. The left one was smiling. The right one was crying. The back one was evil and very scary- looking.
The eight arms were raised at a variety of different angles. A spirit spell powered his strange body as he flew forward.
Han Sen heard some screaming and explosions coming from behind him. He turned around and saw a few of the Demons—who had been running a kilometer behind him—get ripped apart. Their bodies were scattered all over the sands, splattering blood everywhere.
Seven Spirit, with his gold Buddha body, chased after Luo Ji. He was the only one of his party who was still alive.
Luo Ji knew he could not outrun the villain, and so he roared. His Demon smoke enshrouded the blade he wielded. He sent a full-powered Sky Demon attack towards Seven Spirit.
Sky Demon's shadow swallowed Seven Spirit, but in less than a second, the shadow was torn apart. The four-faced, eight-armed Buddha that Seven Spirit had become escaped and teleported to Luo Ji. His arms grabbed Luo Ji, and Luo Ji watched with shocked eyes as the monster tore him apart.
"That is cruel!" Han Sen was not in the mood to watch, so he kept running through the desert.
After Luo Ji's body was ripped apart, a black smoke came out of the body and landed on Han Sen. Han Sen felt the black smoke go into his Sea of Soul. His body could not prevent it from getting inside.
Ordinary geno universe creatures had a Spirit Sea. Han Sen's Spirit Sea was his Sea of Soul, and it was unique to beings that came from the sanctuaries.
The black smoke went in, and when it did, Destiny's Tower shone. It was like a giant funnel that sucked the black smoke into the tower.
"What is this place? Let me out!" The black smoke was now screaming from the top floor of Destiny's Tower. The voice belonged to Luo Ji.
Han Sen did not have the time to figure out what the black smoke was right now, though. Seven Spirit had killed all the Demons at once, and that hadn't bought Han Sen as much time as he had hoped. His nemesis was catching up from behind once again.
Luckily, Seven Spirit's xenogeneic form had not increased his max speed. He was still unable to catch up with Han Sen, and that was why Han Sen did not feel the need to transform, either.
Seven Spirit was not in a rush, though. He released his xenogeneic transformation and returned to his normal form to chase Han Sen. Becoming a xenogeneic might have increased his strength, but it had three times the energy cost.
Remaining in a xenogeneic form wasn't a good idea.
The chase continued, and Han Sen hoped to encounter someone else across the sands. He was hoping for a Duke, but as he ran, he didn't see hide nor hair of anyone else.
"I don't know if Hai'er escaped," Han Sen thought to himself. That was because he had not seen Seven Spirit's clones return. It made him wonder how Hai'er might have been faring.
Han Sen kept running for the next few days. Most of his power came from the rabbit shoes he used, but he still felt tired.
Seven Spirit's stamina level was incredible. He was still on Han Sen's heels, and he hadn't slowed down.
This guy is annoying!" Han Sen's tired body still chugged along. Heaven was like an infinitely large realm, the ends of which could not be reached. The next horizon was always just desert.
"I can't just keep running like this forever. I have to reach the other end so Seven Spirit won't attack me. How will I get to the other side, though?" Han Sen had been thinking this over and over for the past few days. He couldn't come up with a solution.
Han Sen put his mind into Destiny's Tower. He spoke to Luo Ji, who was now a pillar of black smoke. "Luo Ji, do you know how to reach the other end?"
"You got me killed. I won't tell you. Go to hell!" The black smoke boomed with Luo Ji's angry voice.
Han Sen coldly said, "If I escape, you can still live this way. If I don't, you won't even be alive as a black smoke."
After that, Han Sen took control of Destiny's Tower and made it shine. It shone on the black smoke, and the black smoke looked like water that had touched burning steel. The smoke was vaporizing, and Luo Ji was screaming.
"Don't kill me! I'll tell you," Luo Ji shouted.
"Don't feed me a single lie. If I die, you die. If I can escape, I will keep you alive. You'll also be a witness for Seven Spirit chasing me," Han Sen said.
Luo Ji said, "Heaven is not a xenogeneic space. It is a deified treasure, but this treasure came from a deified elite of the Buddha. Even they can't control it. They can only control a portion. Although they only control a small section, it is not difficult for them to trap people. If you get pinned, it will be impossible to reach the other end."
"But if they cannot control Heaven totally, we can escape their control somehow, right?" Han Sen asked.
"That'd be difficult. Every time Heaven opens, only ten people can reach the other side. That isn't a coincidence, you know. The Buddha do this on purpose. I made inquiries into those who did reach the other end, and I discovered that they are all close friends of the Buddha. Not many enemies can reach the exit," Luo Ji said.
"If you know this, then what were you still doing here? You must know of a way," Han Sen asked.
Luo Ji paused, and then said, "I have a guess, but I don't know for certain. I have come here to find out."
"Tell me." Han Sen looked back and saw Seven Spirit was still giving pursuit. He wasn't worried that Han Sen would be able to escape Heaven.
Han Sen thought to himself, "I'm afraid that what Luo Ji says might be true, but if so, then the Buddha have full control over who makes it out the other end. It isn't random."
Luo Ji wasn't certain, but under pressure from Han Sen, he relented and told the story.
Many factions had researched the Buddha Heaven. They had guesses similar to Luo Ji's, but no one had proven their authenticity. This was primarily because the Buddha forbade King class sorts from entering the Buddha Heaven. Ordinary Nobles could not do much in the Buddha Heaven.
Luo Ji consulted many people that had reached the other side, and people that had gone deep without reaching the end. He gathered a lot of information and came up with a guess.

Chapter 1946 Heaven's Music
The Buddha could not control Heaven in its entirety. If someone traveled to the area that was not under the control of the Buddha, they had a chance of making it to the other end.
Luo Ji thought the area that the Buddha did not control was under the Sand Sea.
"Once you enter the Sand Sea, you will see some white dunes. They're different from the ones of yellow sand. You won't find them if you don't look, either. Once you find them, though, head for them immediately. Then, you can enter the region that the Buddha don't control. This is merely my theory, though. There's a chance I am incorrect," Luo Ji said.
"If it's not correct, then you know you will die with me. It is best you tell me everything," Han Sen said to Luo Ji as he continued running.
"There is no more for me to tell. That is all I know," Luo Ji said.
"Really? I don't think you're the sort of person that goes on an adventure with nothing but a guess," Han Sen coldly said.
"You can't say that! The whole reason I am here is because the place the Buddha control might have a treasure that the deified elite left behind. That is why I came here in the first place," Luo Ji answered.
Han Sen kept running, looking all around. He was pivoting his head to look for the white dunes Luo Ji had mentioned. There were many dunes around, but there wasn't a single white one.
After running for a while, Han Sen's eyed gleamed brightly. Amidst the bumpy dunes of the desert, there was a smaller dune between them. It was only two meters tall. The dune was a little white, and if you did not peer at it closely, you might not have seen a difference at all.
"I found your dune. So, how do I get in?" Han Sen asked Luo Ji as he ran for the dune.
"Some peoples have been known to accidentally run inside, usually when they were getting attacked. I don't know exactly how to get in, but I was planning to try digging," Luo Ji answered.
Han Sen stopped hesitating. He pulled out Ghost Teeth Knife and slashed a Fang attack towards it.
The knifelight struck the little dune and created a big hole inside it.
Han Sen was very pleased with the result. His Ghost Teeth Knife had created a big hole, and the knifelight was still moving forward. The attack had punched through easily, as if it was hollow down below.
But if you looked from above, you'd see a hole with sand at the bottom.
Han Sen clenched his jaw and went inside the dune. Han Sen did not feel as if he was hitting sand. It felt more like water. It seemed like he was drifting down, like he was sinking.
Seven Spirit, who had caught up by that point, hesitated for a moment. He still decided to jump in.
Eventually, Han Sen's eyes brightened. What he saw shocked him.
When he went through the dune, he didn't arrive in some cave. It was another world, complete with its own sky. It was like he was traveling through the skies.
It was different from the desert above, too. Here, he could see gold springs and giant gold trees. Every tree had a gold temple.
Light glowed everywhere. There was a Buddha mist that covered a temple, splitting the light into many colors. It looked like a Heaven of its own, but there was no pain and violence like in the Heaven above.
"Is this the real Heaven?" Han Sen frowned because the music was stronger there. Even he was starting to feel that pressure. His legs trembled, and it seemed as if he was about to start dancing.
Han Sen used his will to regain control of his body. Before he could decide where to go, he heard a noise and Seven Spirit dropped down behind him.
Han Sen tried to leap towards the gold forest that was visible in front of him, but he felt as if he was grounded and could no longer go airborne. So, he kept running forward.
Seven Spirit did not follow him. He looked at Han Sen and laughed grimly. "Han Sen, this Heaven is not a place you can freely access."
"Really? Because I just did. So, what? Are you going to come and kill me?" Han Sen didn't look back as he shouted.
"If you keep going, you'll be dead without me lifting a finger," Seven Spirit said simply.
Han Sen wished to say something more, but Seven Spirit went on. "It is almost time."
And then a bell chimed. Han Sen's brain felt as if it had just exploded. He almost collapsed to the ground. The tolling of the bell was far more powerful than the music.
Seven Spirit put his hands before him. Then, a Buddha light shone. His forehead produced a cold sweat with the difficulty of what he was casting.
Seven Spirit coldly looked at Han Sen, who was lying on the ground. He walked towards Han Sen with a Buddha light. He turned into his four-faced, eight-armed Buddha form and said, "Dying in the face of such music is your luck."
Han Sen wished to say something, but he heard another bell chime. He did not know where it came from, but it echoed across the entire world. Han Sen was on the ground, and the chiming of the bell had him coughing up blood again.
"Seven Spirit, why do you want me dead?" Han Sen asked Seven Spirit, since he was having a hard time standing up_
"It is because you deserve death." Seven Spirit spoke each word from all four mouths. They each had a different tone, and it was like four people telling him all at once. It looked very creepy.
After that, the three-meter-tall Seven Spirit came charging towards Han Sen. Eight of his arms had eight different spirit marks, and they were all coming to attack Han Sen.
Dragon, lion, sheep, horse, elephant, bug, and fish; all seven Buddha lights were collected and sent rushing toward Han Sen.
Han Sen rolled across the golden floor to dodge the seven mark attacks. Then, he got up and ran towards the golden forest again.
But the heavenly music was getting louder and louder. Han Sen was starting to lose control of his body. He started dancing a little, a morbidly amusing thing to see.
Seven Spirit, who was behind Han Sen, could tell he was having trouble walking. Seven Spirit himself had already turned into a xenogeneic, but he was losing control.
Han Sen followed the music and kept running the same way, dancing as he went. Seven Spirit could not kill him, but Han Sen had been attacked by those spirits, and he had incurred an injury.
Seven Spirit used his lion spirit to attack Han Sen, but the arm twitched. The lion landed on the golden ground and did not touch Han Sen.
"Seven Spirit, you finally cannot handle this music anymore." Han Sen suddenly laughed. He brushed off the dirt on his front and stood up. He looked very lackadaisical, as if the music hadn't affected him at all.
"Impossible!" Seven Spirit's face went slack.

Chapter 1947 Sky God Possession
Ordinary people could not withstand the music, and the chiming of the bell was far more grueling.
Even Seven Spirit himself, who had practiced the Buddha geno art and acquired the four-faced, eight-armed Buddha form, was having a hard time under the bell's oppression. He was losing control of his body.
Han Sen was a Viscount, and yet he had escaped the music. Seven Spirit could barely believe it.
The ordinary heavenly music and the bell were not physical attacks; they were more like a torturing of the mind. But this was a department where Han Sen excelled. His will was as strong as a deified elite's, so he wasn't affected by the Buddha Heaven's music.
He pretended to be affected so he could lure Seven Spirit forward and ensure that the Buddha wouldn't give up chasing him.
Now, Seven Spirit had fallen under the bell's influence. And that meant it was time for Han Sen to strike back.
Han Sen's rabbit shoes were moving in a blur, flinging him forward like a shadow. The Ghost Teeth Knife gave off a purple knifelight as it came swinging at Seven Spirit.
Seven Spirit wished to flee, but as soon as he started to do so, his arm and legs flailed in a dance. His legs weren't following his commands, and he couldn't move the way he wanted to.
Pang!
The knifelight was broken by Seven Spirit's hands. The four-faced, eight-armed Buddha body was quite scary.
Han Sen's face did not change. He kept swinging the Ghost Teeth Knife and using Teeth Knife knife skills. His body continued to flash around Seven Spirit.
Seven Spirit stumbled back, using his eight arms to fight against Han Sen. But at various times, some parts of his body would lose all control. He began to make mistakes he wouldn't have, otherwise.
A moment was all that it took for him to make a big mistake. Even though Han Sen's body was inferior to Seven Spirit's, it was through all those mistakes that Han Sen could discern his flaws.
Ghost Teeth Knife's purple knifelight slashed down on Seven Spirit. It created a spark and left a white mark on his golden body. Then, it disappeared.
"What a powerful xenogeneic body!" Han Sen was shocked. He didn't cast Ghost Teeth Knife's power a lot, but it was still easy for him to kill an Earl. The fact that he couldn't leave much of a mark on Seven Spirit's body spoke volumes about just how scary the Buddha's body was.
Seven Spirit looked furious. His eyes shone gold, and his eight arms tried to generate a spirit to attack Han Sen. Now his body was losing more and more control, though. Too many of his flaws were being exposed. He couldn't suppress Han Sen as he had earlier.
Han Sen depended entirely on his rabbit shoes for speed. The Red Mink Gloves gave him increased power. With the two, Ghost Teeth Knife continued to hack at the four-faced, eight-armed Buddha body.
But his attacks could only leave white scrapes across the gold body. The Teeth powers could not latch onto Seven Spirit.
Seven Spirit wished to escape Heaven now, but it was too late. He fell back quickly, but the tolling of the bell was rather frequent. It affected him more and more.
Before Seven Spirit escaped from Heaven, his body fell completely into the dance. He couldn't stop that strange dance, and he couldn't get out of Heaven.
Han Sen was so happy, and he kept slashing at Seven Spirit. Using Jadeskin and Mutant Blood, he began to leave shallow marks on the gold Buddha body.
But that was enough. If he could leave marks, the Teeth power would slowly start to tear Seven Spirit's body apart. Although it was slow, over time, it'd be enough for him to kill Seven Spirit and his Buddha body.
Seven Spirit kept roaring with his four faces. He wanted to take control of his body and escape the Buddha Heaven, but his body had been hijacked by the music. Regaining control was a very difficult task.
"Why is he not affected? Impossible…" Seven Spirit Buddha took another hit from Han Sen. His eyes gleamed gold, and he looked angry.
Han Sen wanted to cut him a few more times before he left that place. When he exited, the marks would kill the felon slowly anyway. But before Han Sen could slash him again, Seven Spirit's eyes suddenly turned gold. Gold fire flared to life, and it burst out to wrap up Seven Spirit's body.
The body that had been affected by the music suddenly became still, thanks to that gold flame. He had stopped dancing.
"Han Sen, I said we would meet again soon." The four-faced, eight-armed Buddha, which was enveloped in fire, opened its four mouths to speak. A scary voice boomed out.
"Qing Jun!" Han Sen now knew who it was. The Sky God had been behind everything this entire time.
Seven Spirit's mind was completely under the control of Qing Jun. And in his true form, he was not affected by the bell. He cruelly laughed as he walked towards Han Sen. He said, "Han Sen, I have waited a long, long time for this. But don't worry; I won't kill you. You are a big delicious meal for one such as 1.1 will feast on your fear, your tears, and your death."
The voice of utter contempt echoed in Han Sen's ears. Han Sen felt terrible, but he brought out the red mist orb.
He couldn't deal with Seven Spirit, and now it turned out that he was being possessed by Sky God Qing Jun. There was no way Han Sen could triumph now.
Han Sen planned on using Red Mist King for his final bid. Although Red Mist King had barely any juice left in the tank, he'd kill Seven Spirit if he could land a hit on him.
Qing Jung looked so mad as he flared with gold fire. His demonic presence was insufferably strong, and it made the four-faced, eight-armed Buddha body look even scarier. It was like he was going to eat people.
Boom!
Qing Jun lifted his finger and gathered up a swirl of hot flame atop it. The fire gathered up Seven Spirit's Buddha light and flame powers. He used it only for a second, and Han Sen felt himself burn.
The four faces looked to be filled with vile hatred. Qing Jun controlled Seven Spirit's body. His fingers fired a gold flame towards Han Sen.
But suddenly, a bag was hanging around Seven Spirit's neck. The bag was incinerated by the gold fire. There was a yellow spell paper inside, and it was scorched.
When it burned, a weird light came out of the ash and went to Seven Spirit's forehead.
"Argh!" Han Sen heard a scream. The scream came from Qing Jun.

Chapter 1948 Soul Armor
Han Sen stopped in his tracks. He couldn't figure out what had just happened.
The light spell was stuck to Seven Spirit's forehead. It shone brightly, and Qing Jun started to scream as it gleamed.
"Who dares to trick me in such a fashion?" Sky God Qing Jun screamed. The gold fire began to lessen, and Han Sen saw a gold shadow writhing around Seven Spirit's body. It twisted as if it was in agony, which was extremely creepy to watch.
Although he did not know what had happened, Han Sen knew his chance to act had come. Rather than continuing to watch the spectacle, he moved forward to swing his Ghost Teeth Knife.
As the knifelight slashed across Seven Spirit's body, Qing Jun and Seven Spirit lost control of the four-faced, eightarmed gold Buddha body form. He screamed in rage as Han Sen hit him, but it was useless.
Qing Jun's will was suppressed by the light spell. His scream turned to pain. He had possessed Seven Spirit, yes, but he could no longer exit the body.
Seven Spirit's will was not strong enough to withstand the rhythm of the music. He could only watch as Han Sen continued to strike his hardy body.
No matter how strong his body was, though, it could not withstand a thousand hits. Lacerations began to appear across the gold Buddha body. Blood seeped out of the wounds, looking like liquid gold.
Han Sen was cruel. He paid no mind to Qing Jun or Seven Spirit's cries.
"I will kill you… This has nothing to do with me… Kill you… It controlled me… You are killing a Buddha…" The four mouths spoke different words. Qing Jun and Seven Spirit were talking in tandem.
Han Sen ignored them, though. He continued his rage of slashes.
If Seven Spirit had been controlled by Qing Jun, then the Buddha hadn't meant to kill Han Sen. But given how long Seven Spirit had been chasing Han Sen, why hadn't the Buddha tried to fight off Qing Jun's control?
Without a doubt, the Buddha had some reason to hope for Han Sen's death. It did not matter if Qing Jun had possessed Seven Spirit or not.
Seven Spirit's roaring echoed across the heavenscape, but his struggles were futile. Han Sen delivered a thousand blows, striking Seven Spirit's neck over and over. Eventually, he was able to lop the head of four faces off. The gold blood squirted everywhere.
"Marquise-class xenogeneic hunted: Four-Faced Eight-Armed Buddha. Four-Faced Eight-Armed Buddha beast soul obtained. Xenogeneic gene found."
That voice sounded inside Han Sen's head. He was glad he had managed to obtain some sort of reward, following the trial he had just been put through.
Seven Spirit's xenogeneic body crumpled. The gold flames were not extinguished, though. The light spell was still sticking out of the fiery shadow's forehead.
Pang!
The light spell suddenly exploded. The gold flames shattered, and Qing Jun's roaring disappeared along with it. Nothing more remained.
…
As this was occurring, a ship departed the Buddha Kingdom. A man, dressed in rich clothes, was resting upon a seat. His mouth spoke words only meant for himself. "I can't believe Qing Jun possessed someone. He had it coming. This damage will put him off for some time. What an *sshole, to think of touching one of the Han family."
…
Han Sen pulled out a bottle. He collected the blood of the Four-Faced Eight-Armed Buddha. Its blood was the xenogeneic part of its body.
After everything was done, he took a look at the beast soul.
Viscount-class Four-Faced Eight-Armed Buddha: Soul Armor
Han Sen was shocked. He had seen armor beast souls before, and those were simply titled armor. Han Sen was unsure what soul armor meant. Without hesitation, Han Sen summoned the beast soul. A gold armor suddenly wrapped him up, and he could feel how powerful it was.
It resembled the gold armor for Geminis, but it looked like ordinary beast soul armor. It didn't look like anything special.
Han Sen tried to generate power to punch with it, but as soon as he moved, the gold armor began to shine. A Four- Faced Eight-Armed Buddha appeared directly behind him, and when he punched, he did so with the Buddha's gold light. It had the same power that Seven Spirit had possessed.
"D*mn! This Soul Armor is strong." Han Sen was so happy, as he had never possessed armor like this before. Wearing the armor granted him the power of a Marquise. And since it was from Seven Spirit, it was even stronger than normal.
"I don't know if other people can see the Four-Faced Eight-Armed Gold Buddha that appears behind me. If they can, that might be bad," Han Sen thought to himself as he put the beast soul away. Then he looked over the Heaven.
In a hall of the Buddha, a candle went out. Burning Lamp Alpha's eyes widened, and many of the Nobles around him seemed stunned. Burning Lamp Alpha had not shown surprise in more than a thousand years.
"Seven Spirit is dead," Burning Lamp Alpha spoke slowly, with his face all twisted.
"With Seven Spirit's power, there is no way Han Sen was able to…" The Buddha were in shock.
"How… Wasn't Seven Spirit going to get the Knife Child?" He knew he had misspoken when the Buddha King spoke the Buddha catchphrase.
"Whoever killed him must pay!" Burning Lamp Alpha was calm, but his calm was frightening.
Seven Spirit was his first student in a thousand years. Burning Lamp Alpha believed he had what it took to become deified. Now that he had simply died, Burning Lamp Alpha was furious.
"Han Sen… He… He…" A Buddha Duke that was watching over Heaven screamed.
"What happened?" Clear Sea Buddha frowned at the Duke.
"Han Sen has reached the end!" The Buddha Duke looked strange.
"What? He did? I thought he wasn't on the list." Clear Sea King did not believe it.
"I don't know, but he has. Come take a look." The Duke was having trouble explaining, so he waved at the Buddha mirror and instructed it to reveal Han Sen's body.
All the Buddha Kings could clearly see that Han Sen had reached the other end.
"He entered Heaven with Seven Spirit. Now he is making it out, and Seven Spirit is dead. He must have killed him." Burning Lamp Alpha stood up from his lotus seat. He walked towards the door of Heaven.

Chapter 1949 Turning into an An
Burning Lamp had suffered thousands of years of pain, but he refused to die. He wanted to remain long enough to see a new deified amongst the Buddha. Seven Spirit was his greatest hope of achieving this. But now that hope had been stolen from him, and it was difficult to fathom just how angry Burning Lamp really was.
The Buddha commoners were in shock. It had been years since Burning Lamp had been seen in person outside the palace, but now he stood in the city beside the western door. Many Kings were following him, also. The citizens of the city wondered what had happened.
Han Sen had traveled through Heaven until he came to the shore of a seemingly endless sea. A ship had been waiting beside the waters; a ship made of golden leaves. He embarked and used it to reach the other side.
On the other side, Han Sen found Speechless and others. There were ten of them. A few of them were the people that had seen following Speechless.
The music in Heaven had no effect on Han Sen. He had reached the other end, and when he did, a Buddha light landed on him. It energized Han Sen's cells and reinforced his body.
That reinforcement was not enough for Han Sen to level up, but he knew his body had gotten a lot stronger. It was quite effective, whatever it was.
Speechless, seeing Han Sen reach the other end, was flabbergasted. The others with her were surprised, too. They didn't expect anyone who wasn't in their group to survive the trip.
Speechless Lady saw Han Sen approach, as if to speak with her, but just before he did, a door appeared. The group traveled through the door, and they ended up outside the western door in Buddha City.
After they exited, they all took a step back in shock. Burning Lamp Alpha and the other kings were all there. Speechless immediately bowed before him, as did the others. They were all shaking and trembling in fear.
"You may be excused," Clear Sea King told the others. Burning Lamp Alpha didn't say anything, though. All he did was look at Han Sen.
The others sighed in relief. They staggered away. The feeling of pressure hadn't been directed at them, but they still felt an overwhelming sense of danger, and that was enough to scare them.
Han Sen frowned when he saw this. He knew the Buddha wouldn't be very forgiving, but he didn't expect Burning Lamp Alpha himself to appear.
Clear Sea King, seeing Han Sen, asked coldly, "Han Sen, why did you kill Seven Spirit?"
After hearing that, everyone looked at each other in shock. Everyone knew of Seven Spirit and his incredible talent.
"Why are you saying that? When did I kill him?" Han Sen responded without an ounce of fear.
"You're denying it?" the Buddha shouted. They were very angry.
There was such a frightening pressure being thrown about, and the people nearby were having difficulty keeping their breathing steady. But Han Sen, the one under the force of those questions, was wholly calm. He said, "You say I killed Seven Spirit? Okay, and where's the evidence of that?"
"We will have evidence. You cannot deny this wrongdoing." Clear Sea King didn't want to let Han Sen talk. He flapped his sleeves, and they became large pieces of cloth that tried to cover Han Sen.
In the comer of a pavilion, Yisha's eyes looked cold. The white chess piece in her hand snapped in half. She stood up, her back as straight as a knife.
The old man across from her was shocked. He placed a black chess piece down on the board. The pavilion was in a strange dimension, separate from reality and the rest of the world.
"Buddha Mark, our friendship ends here," Yisha said, her voice cold. She slashed through the air and broke through the dimensional fabric. Then she leaped into the sky.
In front of the western door, Clear Sea King's sleeve was going to wrap around Han Sen. But just as it was about to snare him, a purple knifelight ripped through the sleeve.
Yisha appeared directly in front of Han Sen, her posture as straight and regal as a queen's. She looked emotionlessly at the Buddhas before her, and when she spoke, there was no fear in her voice.
"Burning Lamp, you are deified! But if you do not give me an explanation for this transgression today, I will see to the destruction of the Buddha Kingdom myself. I will destroy everything here without remorse." Yisha spoke slowly, staring directly at Burning Lamp Alpha.
"How dare you, Knife Queen! Just because the Buddha have a fond relationship with the Rebate, it does not mean you can be disrespectful towards Alpha." The Buddha Kings all started to yell.
Burning Lamp raised his head and said coldly, "Your student killed my student. Isn't that enough for you to know?" "Evidence," Yisha responded simply.
Burning Lamp looked at Yisha, and he moved his hand. It was not clear how he moved it, and it did not seem to be aimed at anyone in particular. But somehow, Han Sen had been grabbed from behind her.
Yisha looked cold, and she slashed towards Burning Lamp Alpha.
Burning Lamp Alpha did not look at Yisha, yet he moved his palm perfectly in time with her attack. Yisha's strike tore through the air, but it was like it needed to travel countless miles before it could hope to reach that hand. It was close, and yet so far.
Burning Lamp's other hand, which had grabbed hold of Han Sen, was shining. It covered Han Sen's body, and then all of a sudden, Han Sen was turned into an ant.
After Han Sen was transformed into an ant, Burning Lamp Alpha threw him back to Yisha. He coldly said, "For all our sakes, I will allow him to live. But you better watch it."
After that, the Kings walked away with their light.
As Yisha held Han Sen's ant body carefully, she kept clutching her knife. She didn't try another attack, though, because she knew it would be pointless.
"I'll be useless until I become deified. Being half-deified is just a joke." Yisha gritted her teeth, gripped the ant more firmly, and flew away.
The other races had seen what Burning Lamp did, and they were shocked. Even a half-deified elite like Yisha could not do anything to oppose him. She could not protect her student from being turned into an ant, either. It was scary to think about.
Han Sen had been shocked, too. His power had been too weak for him to even consider fighting back. And then Burning Lamp had simply turned him into an ant. He really did feel like he had been turned into an ant, too; it didn't appear to be some sort of illusion.

Chapter 1950 Consume Skill
"Han Sen! I've brought harm down on you. I cannot believe the Buddha had an ulterior motive for inviting me there." Back on the ship, Yisha placed the ant down on the table and sighed.
Han Sen wished to speak, but he could not. He had become an ant, and he could no longer use any geno arts. He really was like a normal ant.
Han Sen was not frightened by his new state, though. He started skittering across the table, writing something out by the way he was moving. "The few items I had were stolen by Burning Lamp. He took my deified Knife Blank."
When Yisha saw Han Sen writing this out, she looked overjoyed. She said, "You still have a will of your own?"
"I am aware, yes. What's wrong?" Han Sen wrote.
"Burning Lamp's geno art can change the genes of a being. He can turn a member of the higher races into a primal creature. Even their brains are reduced to the level of an animal. He didn't kill you because turning into an ant is a worse fate. It would make you feel hopeless. There is no way he'd go easy on you, though, so it is strange to see that you still possess your own will. Are you sure you are okay?"
Han Sen considered his body. Aside from being an ant, and being unable to use geno arts with a human body, he had not been affected.
Han Sen explained the situation to her and asked, "How do we break the spell of this geno art, so I can have my proper body back?"
Yisha's expression looked sickened, and she said, "You can't. You really are an ant now. Unless there is a deified elite with the same talent, you are stuck like this."
There must be another deified elite with his geno art around. What about Kong Fei?" Han Sen asked. He didn't want to be stuck as an ant.
Yisha gave a wry smile, and she said, "Every deified elite has a skill of their own. Kong Fei is strong, yes, but he is not talented with loop geno arts. He cannot help you get your body back."
After a while, Yisha spoke again. She said, "From what I know, there is a deified elite that can do this, but I don't know where he is. Even if I wanted to ask him, I wouldn't know where to find him."
Han Sen gave a wry smile, but he wasn't going to give up. He said, "Don't worry, my Queen. If this is just a geno art, then there is surely a way it can be broken. I will be fine, sooner or later."
Yisha shook her head and said, "If I become deified, I will destroy that Buddha Kingdom."
"Yes, destroy it!" Han Sen was so angry.
It was the Buddha that commanded Seven Spirit to kill Han Sen, and they almost succeeded. But now they had been bold enough to do this. The Buddha were clearly impossible to reason with.
"I need power. That's my focus now, and I need that power if I am to level the Buddha Kingdom," Han Sen thought. He was furious over what had happened.
The news about Han Sen being turned into an ant by Burning Lamp had traveled to every corner of the universe. Many of them felt sorry for what had occurred, whereas others mocked him. Most people were just curious, though. They didn't care what he did next.
Han Sen obviously had no future now that he had been turned into an ant. He had a body that belonged to one of the most primal creatures, so his intelligence would be extremely low. It was unlikely he could practice anything. He wouldn't even be able to generate a geno armor.
But Han Sen had been able to kill Seven Spirit. It was a shame that someone of such strength had met such an ignoble end.
Han Sen rested on board the ship. Little Invisible and Ghost Teeth Knife were next to him. Yisha had retrieved them for him.
Han Sen had felt something was wrong just before Burning Lamp struck him. He had tossed Little Invisible and Ghost Teeth Knife to Yisha, but the moment he threw them, Burning Lamp had snatched him off the ground. He couldn't give his other items to her, and so Burning Lamp had taken them all.
He hadn't minded losing most of his things, but the half-deified Knife Blank was a wonderful item. He felt very bitter over that being lost.
Han Sen tried to use his powers while he was an ant. The Dongxuan Sutra, the Blood-Pulse Sutra, and Jadeskin had become completely useless for him. They were geno arts purposed for the human body. They did not work while he was an ant.
But when he ran The Story of Genes, it ran as smoothly as always. Because it functioned without a hitch, there was nothing to impede his continued study of the geno art. He could even make use of Spell.
Han Sen felt very relieved when he discovered this. If he was able to use some of his power, then he could be fixed. There was hope.
Han Sen wanted to try using his super god spirit mode to escape the ant form, but Yisha was on the ship, and she would surely notice if he used it. Even if he successfully turned back into a human, it would be a poor situation.
Han Sen remained patient, and he followed Yisha back to Narrow Moon. Yisha did not take him back to Planet Eclipse. He was put in the palace on Planet Blade.
Han Sen requested to go back to Planet Eclipse, but he wasn't permitted. So, he performed his The Story of Genes in front of Yisha and summoned Spell.
Yisha saw it, and she was shocked. "It looks like you haven't turned into a primitive creature at all. Maybe it is because of this The Story of Genes. This strange geno art is special. It can even disrupt deified powers. If you make it up to King-class, I cannot begin to imagine what it might do."
"My Queen, do you see? I have turned into an ant, but I still have the powers of a Viscount. You should send me to Planet Eclipse, because I have stuff to do there." Han Sen was now using Spell to communicate with Yisha.
"Okay, and I will focus on finding you a way to get your body back." Yisha seemed to have a thought, and she began searching through her records. She returned with a geno art. "You've turned into an ant, so you cannot make use of most geno arts. This skill, called Consume, is a geno art that belonged to a Consuming Ant. They are an old higher race, so perhaps it can help you in the time being."
Han Sen did not know why Yisha had given him the skill of Consume to learn. But it did suggest that she feared for Han Sen's possible recovery. If he practiced as an ant, there might be hope. It wouldn't be over.
Han Sen let Spell accept Consume, and then he went to Planet Eclipse. He wanted to find out if super god spirit could turn him back into a human.
Super god spirit gave him a certain amount of immunity to certain types of attacks, so it should have worked.

Chapter 1951 Can You Not Treat Me Like a Monster?
Planet Eclipse.
Wang Yuhang was riding his bike across the mountains. He was wearing a pair of eye-catching sunglasses.
Little Angel and the others were ready to level up, but they had to prepare before becoming Viscounts. So they hadn't come hunting with him.
Wang Yuhang had also eaten enough xenogeneic genes to become a Viscount, but he lacked proper fighting experience, so it would be difficult. He didn't like sitting around, either, so he had gone out hunting.
Not long after, Wang Yuhang saw a young Kate girl on the trail. She was walking towards the mountains.
Wang Yuhang frowned. The little girl had a tiger-pattern of stripes, cat ears, and a cat tail. She was rather cute, but she looked like she was only ten or so. She shouldn't have been able to fight, so it was strange to see her out there all alone. Wang Yuhang turned toward her.
"What are you doing out here?" he asked the little girl.
The little girl, seeing him, looked at him queerly. She answered, "I am looking for my mother."
"Looking for her?" Wang Yuhang was shocked.
The little girl explained, "My Mom has been out hunting for the past two days, and she has yet to return. So, I am out here looking for her."
"It has only been two days. She'll be fine." Wang Yuhang offered her some comfort.
Many of the mothers in the base had become Barons. They wanted better lives for their children, and so they hunted to supply them with easy points.
The little girl looked worried, and she shook her head. "Mom said she would return each and every day to check-in. She has always come back on time, except for this time when she hasn't. She must have stumbled into some sort of danger, and so that is why I have come out here to save her."
"You're just a kid, though. What can you do? You should let the good folks at the base help you," Wang Yuhang said.
"I did tell them, but no one believed me. They told me to wait a few more days. I'm sorry, I have to keep going." The little girl started walking again, headed deeper into the mountains.
Wang Yuhang rode the bike up next to her, smiled, and said, "Are you willing to take a risky ride with me? I can take you on this, if that's okay with you."
"Really?" The little girl's eyes shone brightly.
"Yes; but it depends on whether that's what you want." Wang Yuhang smiled.
Before Wang Yuhang finished talking, the girl had already jumped onto the back of his bike. She held onto Wang Yuhang's back and said, "Please find my mother! I have no father, so I cannot lose my Mom."
Wang Yuhang smiled and rose into the mountains. He asked, "Do you know where your Mom usually hunts?"
"My mother never hunts too far from home. She stays in the region so she doesn't have to spend too much time traveling each night," the little girl quickly said.
"It shouldn't be hard to find her, then." Wang Yuhang accelerated along the trail.
As soon as Wang Yuhang entered the mountains, a xenogeneic began running behind him, digging into the ground with its claws. It chased his bike like a hungry wolf. More and more soon gathered up, until there was a whole group of xenogeneics trailing them. They were all Barons, too.
The little girl looked frightened, and so she held onto Wang Yuhang. She shivered in fear, and she couldn't bring herself to look back.
"If you are afraid, I can take you back now," Wang Yuhang said as he rode.
"No, please take me to my mother. She is in danger. Please!" The little girl was trembling, but she never stopped begging Wang Yuhang to find her mother.
"Okay, then." Wang Yuhang began working methodically to scour the mountainsides. There were many xenogeneics coming after him, but they were all slower than his bike. They couldn't hurt him or the little girl.
Sometimes, xenogeneics appeared in front of them. But in such instances, Wang Yuhang was able to evade them. The little girl would hold his waist tightly when this occurred, and she almost fell off multiple times. Still, she asked him to keep going in search of her mother.
A few hours later, Wang Yuhang heard the cry of another xenogeneic. He frowned and decided to take a look. He found a group of xenogeneics surrounding a Kate woman. She was fighting one of them.
It looked like the group was just crowding around her to taunt her. The xenogeneics were enjoying it like some sort of sporting event. Many of them were Viscount class, too, and so they were much stronger than the Kate woman.
If they wanted the Kate woman dead, she'd have been a pile of bones by now. The woman, instead, was still engaged in battle. She was bleeding a lot, but she wasn't ready to give up the ghost.
As Wang Yuhang rode toward her, he could see the will and drive it must have taken for her to keep going. Some of the wounds she had incurred were deep enough to reveal her bones. She should have passed out by now, considering the amount of blood she must have lost.
"Mom!" The little girl squealed, trying to jump off the bike. But Wang Yuhang caught her and pulled her back on. There were many Viscount xenogeneics there. He didn't have the Marquise armor, so he couldn't move too rashly.
"We need backup, but it appears to be too late for us to call on others." Wang Yuhang stroked the little beard on his chin as he thought.
The woman, seeing the little girl, looked towards them. Her face paled and she screamed, "Run, little Rain! Get out of here!"
The xenogeneics then noticed Wang Yuhang. They became extremely alert, and their interest in playing with the woman seemed to vanish. One of the xenogeneics moved over to cut the woman's neck and be done with it.
"No!" The little girl's eyes opened wide as she screamed.
Wang Yuhang's expression looked strange, but he accelerated towards the woman, swinging his sword as he went. Just as the creature swung its claws toward the woman's neck, the sword slashed the xenogeneic's back and made it squeal.
Wang Yuhang used the time he had bought to swoop into the crowd. He picked up the woman in one motion as he passed by.
Wang Yuhang turned the bike to leave the mountain, but the xenogeneics had already reacted, running towards Wang Yuhang. The Viscount xenogeneics started to glow as they surged forward.
Wang Yuhang, still riding the bike, evaded them. The mother and daughter held onto him tightly, but they looked like they were losing hope.
The crowd behind was approaching fast, and the gang that had chased Wang Yuhang earlier was still waiting just outside the valley. They were like hungry wolves, adamantly blocking his attempt to depart.
"This is why I hate women and kids." Wang Yuhang sighed. He spun his bike and stopped. The scary xenogeneics from both sides were coming quickly. The mother and daughter held each other, sitting on the bike. They shivered in each other's arms, with their eyes closed.
"If you can, could you please not treat me like a monster?" Wang Yuhang ignored the xenogeneics. He spoke to the mother and daughter, but his voice was so quiet, they could barely hear him.
Boom!
A noise like a generator sounded. Wang Yuhang's body brimmed with an unspeakable power. The noise came from his body, but there was no light, smoke, or shadow to see.
But the power inside him exploded like a volcano. Even his bike seemed to react, releasing clouds of smoke out of the exhaust.
Suddenly, the world quietened down. The xenogeneics that wished to attack Wang Yuhang stopped. They all froze and looked at him strangely.
The next second, they ran at Wang Yuhang again. But just before they touched him, the two groups collided to kill each other.
Blood and limbs were strewn about everywhere, all across that trail. As the generator noise ran, the two groups fought each other until they all died. Some of them lost their arms, but still they fought on.
The way they looked at Wang Yuhang was strange. It was like he was the most precious person in the world. Some looked at him like a treasured lover, for whom they would do anything.
More likely, Wang Yuhang had become their queen. They had to kill their opponents to make themselves the strongest; all so they could make with the queen.
Blood. Blood was everywhere.
A few hundred xenogeneics were forced to kill each other. They did, and they all died. The sole survivor was a Viscount. It was extremely injured, and it ended up crawling towards Wang Yuhang.
Cha!
Wang Yuhang thrust his hand into its wound and tore out its heart. It was dying, but the look it gave Wang Yuhang was not a look of hate. It was one of pleasure.
The Kate family held each other. They looked at Wang Yuhang with shock; they had been chilled to the bone. At that moment, he was scarier than the xenogeneics.
"That's why I like sticking with Han Sen. It is because those monsters make me look like a person. If no one is afraid of me, I feel like a person." Wang Yuhang spoke quietly to himself, and he looked rather sad.

Chapter 1952 Consume
"Cool! You became an ant; how did you do that? Teach me! If I learn it, I can sneak into any women's locker rooms that I want to!" Wang Yuhang's eyes opened wide. He looked at Han Sen, who was being held by Spell, and smiled.
Little Silver, Little Angel, and Dragon Lady looked at Han Sen's ant body curiously.
Han Sen felt depressed. He sent his words to be spoken through Spell. So, Spell spoke for him by saying, "Cool my *ss! Go and find a way to turn me back to normal."
"How did this happen?" Wang Yuhang used his finger to poke Han Sen, and he laughed.
"Stop! Poke me again and I'll be mad." Han Sen felt even sadder now. Being pressed by a finger felt as if he was being bullied.
Planet Eclipse's news channels were blocked. The others had not heard about what had happened to Han Sen during his time with the Buddha. So, Han Sen took the time to explain what had transpired.
"A deified elite's power? Even if we could suppress his ability, he'd still be too powerful. It won't work, and none of us have the same element as him." Gu Qingcheng stopped to thought, and then proceeded to say, "What about the power you used to transform? Even Purgatory Heaven did not work on you. Could you not try that?"
Han Sen said, "If there is no other option, I will have to do that. But I am afraid that if I recover too quickly from this state, Yisha might become suspicious. So, I will wait like this for a few days."
"It won't be suspicious after a few days?" Wang Yuhang did not understand.
"When I become an ant, I cannot use geno arts. I can only use The Story of Genes. If I can recover, I plan to use The Story of Genes as an excuse. Nobody else has ever practiced it before, so no one will know if I'm telling the truth or not," Han Sen said, through Spell.
"In that case, let's see if we can help you." Dragon Lady gathered up her power, and then put her finger on Han Sen. She wanted to send her power to him.
It was useless, though. Little Angel and Xie Qing King gave it a try as well. But the results were the same, and it did not work.
"You guys did that on purpose." Han Sen watched them all come to press a finger against him. When he looked at their faces, he didn't feel quite right.
Little Angel and Dragon Lady were not Viscounts yet, but Gu Qingcheng and Xie Qing King were, so there was no need for them to use a finger to touch Han Sen. Even so, that was what they did.
"No! I promise we did not plan on squashing you to death." Wang Yuhang laughed.
"I promise, it really isn't like that." Xie Qing King spoke with a tone of sincerity, but it was obvious that he was trying to suppress his urge to laugh.
"You *ssholes!" Han Sen felt so mad, and so he jumped atop Spell's shoulder. Spell then started to fire shiny bullets at them.
After chasing them away, Han Sen took a break. He felt bored, so he decided to read the Consume skill that Yisha had given him.
The Consuming Ants were a famous higher race of the universe. They could consume everything, so they were far scarier than humans.
Humans were omnivores, and they could eat both plants and animals. But the Consuming Ants were even better. They could eat metal, ore, any and all sorts of materials. There was nothing they were not able to digest.
The stronger the ant was, the more digesting power they had. The geno art they learned was called Consume. Practicing the skill required a body that was similar to the Consuming Ants, though.
Burning Lamp Alpha could turn others into ants, but he hadn't given Han Sen the body of an actual Consuming Ant.
Han Sen was just a common ant without any intelligence. He could not generate a geno armor, so there was no way he could learn Consume.
Han Sen decided to give it a try anyway. After all, there was nothing else he could do while he was in the form of an ant.
After Han Sen read through the geno art, he learned that Consume was able to fortify one's stomach. It made the digestion capabilities of a person's stomach quite scary. He could digest something like steel in a short amount of time, and turn all types of materials into energy. They would be absorbed by the body.
"This would be good for people who love to eat. If they could learn this geno art, people could eat a lot more than usual in the sanctuary," Han Sen thought.
When Han Sen had been in the sanctuaries, he had wanted a geno art that could digest stuff quickly. He had never been able to find a good one, though.
Consume appeared to satisfy all of his needs, but only Consuming Ants could practice it.
Han Sen wanted to try it, so he started practicing.
He thought it'd be difficult, but after a few whirls, he felt a chill inside his stomach. It was an odd sensation.
"I can practice this?" Han Sen was shocked.
Since the skill was having an effect, that meant he could practice it.
Since Han Sen had nothing to do, he kept practicing with Consume. He learned quickly, and he achieved beginner status in a few short days.
"I wonder if Metal Eater can practice something like this? I can take it back to the Sanctuary for him."
But Han Sen was just practicing for the time being. He didn't mean to practice it all that much, as he didn't want to be an ant forever.
After a few days, Han Sen could not wait anymore. He wanted to see Ji Yanran, so after four or five days, he tried using his super god spirit mode.
A holy light captured Han Sen's body. Wherever it went, he became a human again. He became a transparent super god spirit.
"It works! Hopefully, I won't turn back into an ant when I deactivate the skill." Han Sen was worried, so he quickly stopped super god spirit mode.
The light disappeared from Han Sen's body, and he returned to his ordinary human form. He did not go back to the shape of an ant.
"Good! Being human is better than being an ant." Han Sen sighed.
He could not wait to use the Blood-Pulse Sutra to open a portal to the Sanctuaries. So, he went back to his home in the Alliance. Han Sen planned to stay there for a while. He wanted to delay revealing the fact that he had healed to Yisha.
But after chilling at home for a while, he felt uncomfortable being away from his usual life as an adventurer.

Chapter 1953 The Han Family Daughter is Born
Since Han Sen had nothing better to do, he tried using Consume. He did not know if he could use it now that he was in human form. It surprised him that he was actually able to activate the geno art.
When he used Consume, something changed in his stomach. It was like a xenogeneic's, but not as strong. His stomach became much stronger than usual, though.
As he practiced Consume more and more, the power of his stomach increased. It wasn't long before Han Sen was able to digest steel. Whenever he swallowed a hunk of steel, it'd be converted to energy. The digestion capabilities were scary.
Han Sen was afraid that Consume might affect his body, but after a few tests, his worries were eased. There were no negative side-effects, and so he continued to practice the skill.
Han Sen let Xie Qing King and the others practice Consume, as well. Aside from Metal Eater, though, none of the others were able to make any headway with it.
Han Sen did not know why he could practice it. Maybe it was because of The Story of Genes, or maybe it was because of his time spent as an ant—he couldn't be sure.
Han Sen was surprised Metal Eater could practice it, though. It would be good for the creature's evolution, and he was developing at a much faster rate than before.
Han Sen thought about whether or not he should bring Metal Eater over to the geno universe. He was strong, and he had a broad comprehension of Consume, but Han Sen thought that would be a negative. He was afraid that Metal Eater would draw trouble when he crossed over. So, for the time being, he decided against it.
"When will I have the power to challenge deified sorts? If I had that power, I could bring people and creatures over from the sanctuaries without worry. I could build a strong army and bring ruin to the Buddha," Han Sen thought to himself.
"Dad!" Bao'er came back from school and gave Han Sen a firm hug.
"You have grown up a lot, Bao'er! You are heavier and taller," Han Sen said, stroking her head as he held her.
Bao'er squinted her eyes and said, "Can I go to the geno universe with you now?"
"Not yet. You still need to grow a bit bigger. But soon, okay?" Han Sen smiled.
"Hmph." Bao'er pouted and acted all angry.
"Okay, I promise you. And I'll visit you more often, even though I'm there in the geno universe." Han Sen rubbed her cheeks and smiled.
Nine months later, it was time for Ji Yanran to give birth. Han Sen, Han Yufei, Luolan, Han Yan, and Ji Yanran's parents were all waiting outside the delivery room.
Ji Yanran gave birth in their own private hospital, where no outsider could reach them.
They were so nervous waiting outside. They couldn't hear a peep of what might have been happening inside.
They didn't hear a baby crying, but suddenly the doctor screamed, "Argh! Ghost!"
Everyone was shocked, not knowing what had just happened. Ji Yanran hadn't screamed, but the doctor sure had.
Han Sen ran inside, and he was shocked at the scene before him.
A half-transparent baby hung in the air, her hands moving.
"Super God Spirit mode!" Han Sen's eyes opened wide, looking at the child in surprise.
Han Sen's daughter was in super god spirit mode. She was scarier than Littleflower, who had super king spirit mode. This was like a new and improved version.
Fortunately, the baby did not keep super god spirit mode activated. After a while, she returned to looking like a normal baby, and it brought Han Sen much relief.
If it remained in super god spirit mode forever, that would have been bad. Normal sustenance could not reach her, and she could not be fed milk.
The Han family daughter was bom without issue. Han Sen had learned his lesson the last time, and he knew better than to suggest that Ji Ruozhen come up with names. Acknowledging this, Ji Ruozhen felt terrible.
Han Sen was also bad at naming things, though. After a long time of thinking, he decided to name the baby Han Ling'er. She was the Han family's sacred daughter.
Everyone was very careful as they took care of Ling'er. Littleflower had been prone to blowing buildings up as if it was nothing, after all. They could never risk getting Littleflower mad.
Han Ling'er had super god spirit mode, so that was an even scarier prospect. God only knew what would happen if she became displeased.
But the family was fortunate in that both babies were surprisingly well-behaved. They were very quiet, and people loved them.
Ling'er's birth also helped to wash away the pervasive sadness that had haunted them since Littleflower had been taken. Ji Yanran looked far happier, but she always made sure to mention a wish for Littleflower to return. She'd frequently mention how much Littleflower would love his little sister.
Han Sen stayed at home with Ji Yanran. He was not in a rush to return to Planet Eclipse. He could practice anywhere, and he practiced a lot in the hopes he could become an Earl soon.
Becoming an Earl was much harder than becoming a Viscount. For the next half a year, Han Sen made very little progress. No geno art had yet to reach Earl class.
But that did not mean the six months were wasted. He spent time researching the red mist orb's copper palace, and he was able to learn that the throne was a teleporter. It did not just teleport him to Planet Meka. Any Meka xenogeneic space had a teleporter, and could be accessed via that throne.
Han Sen tried using it a few times. Whenever he visited a planet, no Meka attacked him. He was able to figure out that he was now going to a business planet that belonged to the Meka. They allowed other races to visit freely.
He was attacked the first time because he had entered a private planet of the Meka. Any intruder, even another Meka, would still be attacked.
When Han Sen had nothing better to do, he used his beast soul armor to walk around one of the Meka planets. He wanted to take a look at their culture.
The seven little minks had been fed xenogeneic genes by Han Sen. They had been able to generate xenogeneic gene materials, which then allowed them to generate a xenogeneic gene battle body.
Han Sen walked down a street belonging to the Meka, and a few spherical heads caught his attention. One of them was Clear Sea King. There were a few other Buddha's there, too. Speechless was amongst them.
"What are they doing with the Meka?" Han Sen wondered, looking at them.
The Meka were good at making xenogeneic gene battle bodies, but aside from the Meka themselves, not many creatures could use them. It didn't seem likely that Clear Sea King and the others were on the planet to buy battle bodies.
Clear Sea King and the others walked past Han Sen, and none of them recognized him with his beast soul armor on.
No one could see the Four-Faced Eight-Armed Gold Buddha armor; only the user could. Outsiders wouldn't notice a thing..

Chapter 1954 Endorsemen
Han Sen planned to see what they were up to, but after walking a couple blocks down the street, Clear Sea King and the others dipped into a giant building with Meka guards. The place was private, so Han Sen couldn't just wander in. He asked around and came to know that it was a house belonging to a King-class Meka.
Han Sen couldn't find out any more than that, as there was no reliable source of information. Han Sen waited outside for a while, but they still hadn't emerged after some time, so he surmised that they had to be staying there.
Han Sen couldn't do anything reckless on a planet belonging to the Meka, so he decided to leave. As he turned around, a naughty little mink leaped out of his pocket and started to scuttle down the street.
Han Sen immediately grabbed the other six while chasing after the escapee. He called out its name, "Little Seven, don't run! Come back!"
Han Sen was bad at naming names, so he named them sequentially from one to seven. They went by their numbers.
Little Seven was the naughtiest and grumpiest of the bunch. Not even Han Sen could bring him to heel. Even so, all seven little minks regarded Han Sen as their master. And even if they did run off, they'd always come scurrying back when they got bored.
Han Sen kept shouting after it, as he ran.
Han Sen did not want to force the mink back, though. He let it run and followed it. The place belonged to the Meka, so no one would care too much if a Meka was found poking about.
Little Seven was interested in something, that much was certain. He wasn't running around aimlessly. He ducked into a building and hurried upstairs.
Han Sen followed, and he noticed it was a large mall. The shopkeepers were all outsiders, too. He followed Little Seven to the second floor, then into a particular shop. He heard some noises coming from the back.
When Han Sen approached, the little mink was wearing his xenogeneic gene battle body. The red armor wrapped up the little creature's body.
The little mink was still just a Baron, so it was very small. Due to this, it couldn't generate much juice. The battle body was simple, and when the mink generated more materials, the battle body would improve.
Little Seven was running around the shop, munching on a mouthful of chestnuts. The shopkeeper kept trying to chase Little Seven away, but the mink was small and nimble. It could run around and quickly grab items from the shelves.
Little Seven was eating everything it could reach. The other six smelled the food and wanted to come out. Han Sen managed to push them down and seal his pockets, though. He didn't need them adding to the trouble.
The Kate shopkeeper soon looked ready to cry. Soon, two Meka guards jumped at Little Seven, but because of how fast and nimble he was, he was able to dodge them. By doing so, he managed to steal another two pieces of food.
The Meka guards were Viscount class, but not even they could catch Little Seven, who was merely a Baron.
Han Sen moved and grabbed Little Seven, then pulled the mink away from their attacks. He quickly said, "I am so sorry!
I will reimburse you for the losses incurred."
"No! If you misbehave here, you must be investigated," one of the Meka said.
"I am sorry, but he is just a child. Please give him another chance, and I will pay twice the amount owed," Han Sen said quickly. He presented Little Seven and said to it, "Come on now and apologize."
Little Seven had done wrong, though. Han Sen wasn't going to needlessly spoil the thing.
Little Seven bowed and lowered its head. Then, it made some tzi tzi noises, as if it was apologizing.
"We can talk about the payment later, but you have to follow us. Otherwise, we cannot report to the shopkeeper," the Meka security guard said.
As Han Sen wondered what he should do, someone shouted from the shop. "Hang on!"
Han Sen looked to where the call came from, and he saw a Feather emerging from the back of the store. He ran in front of the Meka guard and spoke with him. Then the guard left the shop.
"Thanks; I will be reimbursing you for the losses incurred," Han Sen said, as he saw the Feather approach.
"Not too much inventory was lost; do not worry! If you are able to, though, could we talk inside?" the Feather said, while looking at Little Seven in Han Sen's hand.
Han Sen was confused, but he still nodded and followed the Feather to the back of the shop. He was behaving like an officer.
The Feather closed the door, and then looked at Han Sen and Little Seven, and said, "My name is Mach. What is your name?"
"My name is Dollar, from the race of humans," Han Sen answered.
Mach repeated Han Sen's name, then thought of something. He asked, "What is your association with this Meka?"
"I am it's guardian, sort of," Han Sen answered.
After hearing Han Sen, Mach's eyes gleamed brightly. He said, "Does that mean you can command it?"
"What does that mean?" Han Sen frowned.
Mach worried that Han Sen might misunderstand his intentions, so he quickly explained, "If you can command it, I would like to invite it to endorse my shop."
"An endorsement?" Han Sen never thought something like would happen.
"It's like this…" Mach explained.
Mach's store sold xenogeneic fruit. For the Meka, the fruit could replace gathering actual xenogeneic genes. After the Meka ate them, they could release materials for the xenogeneic gene battle bodies.
But the fruits weren't popular. Not many of the Meka knew about them, so the sales had been quite slow. Mach was not a rich fellow, and he couldn't afford big advertisements, so he hadn't found a way to market his wares.
Little Seven's performance surprised Mach. He thought this could be his chance.
Little Seven could endorse the food for him by participating in the Meka's battle body races. If Little Seven was able to get a good score in the Baron tier, and did so by advertising the goods he had just eaten, the xenogeneic gene battle body would be better than any other advertisement.
Little Seven would need to get a very good score, but after Mach saw Little Seven's performance, he thought the little mink could achieve first place.

Chapter 1955 Conspiracy
Han Sen initially didn't want Little Seven to participate in the battle body races, but when he heard what they could win if Little Seven achieved first place, he changed his mind. It was a battle body fluid synthesized by the Meka themselves.
Battle body fluid could level Little Seven up. It could turn Baron battle bodies into Viscounts. For the Meka, this was great.
Mach offered Han Sen a very good deal, and Little Seven showed interest in giving it a shot. So, Han Sen agreed to participate.
He signed a contract with Mach. If Little Seven achieved a good result, he could even gain shares in Mach's company. The better Little Seven did, the more shares Han Sen would receive.
If he earned first place in the Baron team, they could gain a forty percent share of the business.
Mach helped Little Seven sign up. He got the permit to join very quickly, and Han Sen took Little Seven to take part in a few of the early matches.
The other young Meka Barons could not compete with Little Seven. He kept winning over and over, which made him ecstatic. He began to draw the attention of important members of the audience.
Inside a Meka King's palace, Clear Sea King and a Meka King were watching the Baron battle body races.
"Amitabha! Making this trade will require a lot of effort on your part," Clear Sea King said to the Meka King.
That King looked like a giant bear. And while it munched on food, it responded, "It's fine. If you have enough Galaxy Sand, we can give you as many babies as you want."
Clear Sea King watched the match without expression. "Galaxy Sand is not a problem, but I need some good Meka children. There are a few babies here I really like, so please help me acquire them."
"Some of the young ones who have joined the matches are from big families. I can try to get some of the other ones, but the prices?" Battle King stopped talking, but his meaning was obvious.
"I will give you ten times as much Galaxy Sand as we discussed. What do you think?" Clear Sea King said calmly, pointing out the competitors that he wanted.
"The ones you have chosen are very talented Meka babies. If you are not famous, you can't…" Battle King looked glum.
"I will give you twenty times the Galaxy Sand. This is a serious offer," Clear Sea King said simply.
"Okay, good. Then it is a deal." Battle King agreed.
"Hopefully we can conclude this trade quickly and take those babies back to the Buddha," Clear Sea King said. He looked at the Meka babies in the match, paying particular focus to Little Seven, who was ravenously chowing down on some fruit.
Little Seven was doing very well in the Baron tier. He had managed to reach the top ten. Other Baron Meka's didn't stand a chance against him.
Little Seven kept winning and winning, and his renown soon started to spread. He quickly became a Meka superstar.
He ate a geno fruit every time he competed, which was something others soon came to notice, as well.
Shortly after, the sales in Mach's shop started to rise. It delighted him.
But many people came to Mach's store to simply ask about Little Seven, too. He was worried about this, and so he told Han Sen about it. But even without Mach mentioning it, Han Sen could feel things going that way.
There were eyes all over him and Little Seven. It seemed reasonable given the fame that Little Seven had gained, but Han Sen still felt that something was amiss. There were people watching him 24/7, and their methods of observation were too secretive. They were not low-class Nobles, either; they had to be Earls, at least.
If Han Sen did not have his powerful Dongxuan Sutra, he'd have never noticed that they were observing him.
"Who are these guys?" Han Sen wondered, but then an idea crossed his mind.
At night, Han Sen took to the streets. He disappeared in the mall.
After a while, a Meka walked around and around in the mall. He looked terrible.
"Weird. I thought he was here. How did he just disappear?" the Meka said to himself. He then reported what had happened through a communicator. He walked around the mall again, to confirm that Han Sen and Little Seven were nowhere to be found. Then, he left the mall.
Han Sen came out from a corner, wearing his Dongxuan Armor. Even his energy had changed.
He followed the Meka to a giant building, then watched the Meka enter.
"Isn't that the building that Clear Sea King went into? Are they involved? Have they discovered my true identity?" Han Sen thought to himself.
But that would have been impossible. If Clear Sea King had discovered that Little Seven's owner was Han Sen, he would have attacked already. There would have been no need for him to wait.
It seemed obvious to Han Sen that their target was Little Seven.
Han Sen couldn't go in, but he could sneakily send in Little Invisible. If Little Invisible could snoop around inside, he would work like an invisible camera. The only downside was his inability to record voices.
Han Sen spoke to Little Invisible and placed him on the floor. The colors on its body changed to mimic the ground underfoot. Then, it vanished.
Little Invisible's camouflage was strong. Not even King class people would notice he was around. Han Sen still worried, of course, so he waited outside the building. If something happened, Han Sen would use Red Mist King to go save him.
Luckily, these fears didn't come to fruition. After a few hours of waiting, something landed on his shoulder. It was Little Invisible.
Han Sen brought Little Invisible back to Mach's shop. He went to his room and sat down with Little Invisible.
"Little Invisible, what did you see?" Han Sen asked.
Little Invisible's color started to change. It was like watching a show. It displayed the palace. After Han Sen watched was revealed, his face got all gloomy. Now he knew why they had their eyes on Little Seven.
Little Invisible had shown Han Sen many imprisoned Meka babies. Some of them had done quite well in the races.
"Meka have a complicated blood lineage. Sometimes, they sell out their own. But I cannot believe a King class elite would merrily sell off their own kind like that. Clear Sea King is here to buy them, but for what purpose?" Han Sen wondered.

Chapter 1956 Galaxy Sand
Clearly, the Meka Battle King and Clear Sea King had their sights on Little Seven. Han Sen was wondering if he should back out now, but as he was considering his options, a few people came out of the house. It was Speechless and the other Buddhas.
Han Sen did not see Clear Sea King; it was just the young Buddha men and women. Han Sen's heart jumped.
Han Sen followed them and turned on his Dongxuan Aura. He didn't put a lot of effort into hiding himself, as Speechless and the others didn't seem to be too paranoid. They were just walking around and chatting casually amongst each other, not suspecting they were being followed.
But Han Sen followed them for half a day without learning a single useful nugget of information. Their chatter was standard fare. Just as he was going to give it up, though, a Buddha man said, "What is the master thinking? Why would he swap Galaxy Sand for those Meka babies?"
Han Sen was surprised by this. He had heard of Galaxy Sand before. It was a famous treasure belonging to the Buddha, primarily.
Galaxy Sand was not really sand. They were the tears of a King class xenogeneic called Galaxy Dragon. Each teardrop would become Galaxy Sand, and it was a rare treasure.
Galaxy Sand possessed an impressive amount of energy. King class creatures that refined Galaxy Sand received many benefits. Low level creatures that used it would level straight immediately.
Clear Sea King was swapping it for Meka babies. It was a lot to give up, so he must have been doing it for something even bigger.
"Shush." Another of the Buddha's stopped him from talking. He then lowered his voice and said, "Don't talk about it. This is where the Meka live; we cannot let them know about the trade."
"What are we afraid of? This is the Battle King's territory, and he is the one selling us the goods. What can they say about it?" The Buddha lifted his lips, but he didn't look like he was going to push the topic too much further.
Speechless Lady frowned and said, "Just be careful. Let's stop talking."
Speechless and the others walked around, and then they headed back to Battle King's house. Han Sen thought he wouldn't learn anything more useful than that, but Speechless received a message. Then, she told the other Buddhas, "Buddha King has asked me to return. You guys go ahead, and I'll go find out what's going on."
"Why don't we go with you?" a Buddha said.
"It's fine." Speechless shook her head and then left.
Han Sen followed her. He could not fight Clear Sea King, but Speechless was just a Viscount. If he had to, he could take her.
Han Sen planned to capture her and ask her why Clear Sea King was snapping up the Meka babies.
Speechless walked alone as she headed towards Battle King's house. When she turned one particular corner, however, she frowned. A man that looked like a Buddha, wearing gold armor, appeared in front of her. Something seemed odd about him, but she couldn't quite tell what.
"I am Speechless, the Buddha Lady of the Buddha. Who are you? And why are you blocking my way?" Speechless Buddha Lady was being careful, and she watched the man closely as she spoke.
She recognized Han Sen's armor. It was the man who owned Little Seven.
Han Sen didn't say a word, and he simply threw his hand forward to grab her.
Speechless Lady saw the hand get bigger in her vision. It was like it was consuming the entirety of space. It felt as if she had nowhere to run, and it was now she realized she had bumped into an elite.
Speechless's Buddha Light burst out. She summoned a Buddha sword. When it came to strike Han Sen, she spoke the Buddha catchphrase.
The distance to the Battle King's house was two kilometers, so her cries would reach Clear Sea King. With his power, he could definitely come and save her.
But when she opened her mouth, she unleashed a power minus its sound. It was like an empty sonic blast.
Speechless' face changed. Before she could react, Han Sen had grabbed her Buddha sword. Then, he used his finger to fire a coin. It landed on her chest.
Speechless suddenly felt so heavy. She ended up dropping to her knees on the ground. She braced herself with her hands, though, so she wasn't completely flattened out.
Han Sen laid the Buddha sword across Speechless's neck, coldly telling her, "I will ask, and you will answer. If you don't, I will cut your head off."
Speechless was putting all her strength into keeping herself from collapsing. The scary power from the coin made it feel as if her chest was going to explode. Pain radiated across her torso.
"Who are you? Don't you know my Clear Sea King and the Meka's Battle King are nearby? If you kill me, you'll be joining me soon," Speechless said, as if she was holding the ground at bay.
"I don't know if I'll be dead, but you will be for sure. That is, if you refuse to answer my questions. Why are you buying up the Meka?" Han Sen asked.
Speechless didn't answer, and it seemed as if it was a secret she willing to take to the grave.
Han Sen swung the Buddha sword and cut open her armor. Her skin was revealed.
"What are you doing?" Speechless' face changed.
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in women like you. If you don't answer me, though, I will strip you completely. And you can prance on down the street naked, so everyone can see you clearly. Only after will I cut your head off."
Han Sen then went on to say, "I am an impatient man, though, so I will ask you one more time. Why are you buying the Meka?"
Speechless' face remained unchanged. When she didn't say, Han Sen cut the lower part of her armor off. He grabbed her by the scalp and started to drag her.
"We are buying the Meka to fix a deified weapon!" Speechless was shocked. She couldn't think anymore.
"What deified weapon? And how does it get fixed?" Han Sen asked.
"I don't know! I have only heard a bit about it, but I know it's a knife. Only Clear Sea King knows the specifics," Speechless quickly said.
"Ugh, you don't know anything. Why would I need you?" Han Sen looked at Speechless without sympathy.
"If you let me go, I will tell you anything you wish to know! If you let me go and gather the information, I will surely not disappoint you!" Speechless said.
"I am giving you one last chance. If you still can't answer for me right here, enjoy performing on the streets," Han Sen answered, ignoring her plea. "Where is the Galaxy Sand you have stored to purchase the Meka? Don't tell me it's in Clear Sea King's pockets!"
"But it really is with him…" Before Speechless finished, Han Sen grabbed her head again and dragged her across the street. Speechless* face changed and she shouted, "It really is on him! But I have a way to get it for you."

Chapter 1957 Taken Hostage
"What way? Tell me." Han Sen looked at Speechless with interest for the first time.
"Galaxy Sand needs to be showered with starlight to be kept alive. Otherwise, it turns to simple stone in only a few days. I know when Clear Sea King will bring the sand out, and where he takes it to be replenished with starlight." Before Speechless finished, Han Sen summoned a green tower and sucked her inside.
Entering a King class house and stealing their items was something Han Sen would do only if he was crazy. Speechless was only stalling for time.
Han Sen hid all the evidence he might have left at the scene, but Speechless was supposed to meet with Clear Sea King. If she didn't show up, Clear Sea King would notice something was amiss.
He didn't want to waste any more time than he had to, so he scrawled a few words on the ground where he was and then left.
Han Sen walked around the mall, and eventually, Battle King's subordinates saw him. On his way back to Mach's shop, all the subordinates that belonged to Battle King began to move.
News of Speechless's kidnapping had already spread. When Clear Sea King saw the words Han Sen had left on the ground, his face looked extremely sour.
"Clear Sea King, do not worry. I will take responsibility for this. I will return the Buddha Lady to you alive, but I want to find out who is messing around in my territory." Battle King looked horribly angry, too.
The enemy had kidnapped a Buddha in his own territory, and had asked for Galaxy Sand in exchange for her return. It was humiliating Battle King.
If Battle King hadn't taken responsibility, Clear Sea King might have believed he was the one who started all this—to steal the Galaxy Sand.
"Amitabha! I will let you handle this," Clear Sea King spoke the Buddha catchphrase. His face did not change, but he looked worried.
Battle King might have said he was going to help, but Clear Sea King was still suspicious of his possible involvement in the kidnapping.
On Battle King's planet, someone had kidnapped Speechless in secret. And furthermore, she was there under Clear Sea King and Battle King's protection. Clear Sea King believed that Battle King must have been the kidnapper.
"Give me one day." Battle King knew Clear Sea King was suspicious of him, and so he looked fairly gloomy.
The entire planet started to search for Speechless, all following a command issued by Battle King himself. But after a whole lot of time, Speechless went undiscovered. The kidnapper's identity was still unknown.
When the investigation concluded, the most suspicious person they found was Han Sen, who happened to disappear from the watch of the spies. But Han Sen was just a Viscount, and it seemed impossible for someone such as that to kidnap someone like Speechless without making a ruckus.
At a time like this, though, Battle King wasn't willing to let the slightest possibility by.
When Han Sen took Little Seven to participate in the next contest, Battle King's best subordinate, Blood Kill Duke, took control of Mach's store with further subordinates.
Mach was just a businessman with no money. He wouldn't risk co-operating with Han Sen, but he informed them of how he and Han Sen met and did not hide a single thing.
After Han Sen returned from the contest, Mach invited him in. But when he entered, Blood Kill Duke and his people quickly surrounded Han Sen.
"What are you doing?" Han Sen frowned.
Blood Kill Duke brought out a red chain and tied up Han Sen. He said, "Take him back for interrogation."
Quickly, Han Sen was brought into Battle King's house. Little Seven was taken away.
In a lonely room, Blood Kill Duke looked at Han Sen and coldly said, "Dollar, if you hand her over now, all will be fine. Don't make me do this."
"You should tell me what you want me to hand over first," Han Sen replied.
"Where is Speechless Buddha?" Blood Kill Duke asked Han Sen.
"In a safe place!" Han Sen laughed.
Blood Kill Duke was shocked. He did not expect Han Sen to admit he was responsible, so that was quite unexpected.
After pausing, Blood Kill Duke looked murderous once more. He shouted, "Hand Speechless over and I will let you live!"
Han Sen laughed and said, "If you dare touch me, I can assure you that you'll never see Speechless again. Why don't you give your method a try, and see what Clear Sea King and the Buddha will have to say about it?"
"This is Meka!" Blood Kill Duke growled.
He shone with a red light, which then flew swdftly down on Han Sen.
Han Sen didn't even blink. He just looked at Blood Kill Duke. He made no effort to dodge, and he just sat there quietly.
Blood Kill Duke was annoyed, but he knew he couldn't do anything. This was something that involved the Buddha.
Things would go badly for him if he messed this up.
"What do you want?" Blood Kill Duke asked after he regained his calm.
"Galaxy Sand. You are too low level to talk to me, though. Give Clear Sea King a ring and tell him to come over," Han Sen said.
"Don't forget that your life is still in my hands here. I can make you suffer." Blood Kill Duke hummed.
"Kill me or give Clear Sea King a shout. It's your decision," Han Sen said, as calm as ever.
In the control room, Clear Sea King and Battle King witnessed everything. They were surprised to hear he was the one who kidnapped Speechless Lady.
"Amitabha! Let me talk to him," Clear Sea King said.
Battle King nodded. Dollar had put him in a pretty bad situation. He couldn't kill him, either. It would be best if Clear Sea King went and talked with him.
Blood Kill Duke was given an order by Battle King, which prompted him to leave. Then, Clear Sea King came in. Clear Sea King sat next to Han Sen. He did not say anything to Han Sen, and merely looked at him.
Han Sen's energy was not outstanding. It didn't seem too powerful, but Han Sen didn't appear to be trying to hide anything, either. It was like he didn't care about his own presence, even when a King was sitting right in front of him.
Han Sen wore armor so Clear Sea King couldn't recognize his face. After a while, Clear Sea King said, "How much did they give you? I can give you ten times more."
Han Sen laughed and said, "Don't even think about it. No one else is behind this. You either kill me and Speechless dies with me, or you give me Galaxy Sand. Those are your two choices."

Chapter 1958 Skyne
"Why should I believe you? If I give you Galaxy Sand, what guarantee do I have that you'll let Speechless go?" Clear Sea King was not mad, and he spoke in a level voice.
"Give me Galaxy Sand, and I will take you to her," Han Sen said implacably.
"Until I see her, you're not getting anything," Clear Sea King said.
Han Sen laughed and said, "Then you should just kill me! I can tell you that Speechless is somewhere on this planet. Give me Galaxy Sand and I will take you to her. Otherwise, I won't make any deals."
Clear Sea King asked Han Sen, "Speechless is really still somewhere on this planet?"
Han Sen did not speak. He merely smiled.
Clear Sea King asked him a few more questions, but all Han Sen did was smile. He eventually realized Han Sen was not willing to say anything more.
Clear Sea King stopped his questioning and returned to Battle King's lobby.
Han Sen was not in a rush, and he continued waiting where he was. He knew Battle King was going to resume a search across the whole planet—a search that would conclude with no results. Clear Sea King would come back and talk to him again.
Seven Spirit was dead now, so Speechless was the Buddha's next hope for a deified elite. Burning Lamp Alpha greatly supported her now, so he couldn't allow anything to happen to her.
A day later, Clear Sea King came back to Han Sen and asked him, "Speechless is still on this planet, you say?"
Yes. Give me the Galaxy Sand and I will take you to her. The trip will take less than half an hour," Han Sen said matter- of-factly.
Clear Sea King looked at Han Sen and felt strange. A normal Viscount shouldn't have been able to keep such calm composure in front of a hostile King.
"Why even take Speechless?" Clear Sea King asked.
"Because you have put Little Seven in your sights," Han Sen said.
"Amitabha! That is Battle King's business. This is none of our business," Clear Sea King said.
"Speechless told me that you are snapping up Meka babies for the restoration of some deified weapon," Han Sen said.
Clear Sea King frowned. This confirmed to him that Dollar had indeed taken Speechless. Aside from Clear Sea King himself, only Speechless knew about the need to fix-up a deified item. Not even Battle King knew when he was buying the Meka for.
While Clear Sea King sat in silence, Battle King's voice rang in his ear. "If Speechless is indeed on this planet, you can agree to his demands. I will make sure he doesn't earn a single grain of sand. Otherwise, I take full responsibility."
Battle King knew Clear Sea King had yet to make a decision because he still suspected that Battle King had something to do with the kidnapping. So, Battle King had to show that he was innocent in all this.
He was also confident that Dollar couldn't escape with the Galaxy Sand that had been reserved for him.
After hearing Battle King, Clear Sea King did not hesitate to say to Han Sen, "Take me to Speechless and we will conduct this trade."
Han Sen looked at Clear Sea King and smiled. He didn't speak, but it was obvious what he wanted.
"I will give you Galaxy Sand, but you have to promise me that Speechless is on this planet." Clear Sea King stared at Han Sen.
"Yes, I told you. It'll be a half-hour walk. Do you think I can walk off this planet in thirty minutes?" Han Sen smiled.
Clear Sea King looked at Han Sen for a while. He eventually placed a box on the table and opened it. There were many shining crystals inside. Each sparkled with the radiance of a diamond. They were so shiny that they were difficult to look at.
The energy surrounding the items was immediately discemable. Anyone could tell they were some good stuff.
Clear Sea King cast a gold light and broke the red chains around Han Sen. Then, the gold light surrounded Han Sen.
Han Sen could move, but the power in his body had been somewhat restricted by that gold light.
Han Sen picked up the box and counted the contents. Then, he placed it in his pocket. "The amount is correct. Let's go. I will take you to Speechless. Oh, and yeah, give me back Little Seven."
After that, Han Sen stood up and walked to the door.
Clear Sea King was next to him, and the guard did not stop Han Sen from leaving.
Someone sent Little Seven over. Han Sen took Little Seven back and walked out of Battle King's house. No one stopped him, but Battle King's people were everywhere in the surrounding radius of a hundred miles. Not even a mosquito could escape their watch.
"Let's see how this plays out. Once you reveal the Buddha Lady, I will make you suffer." Battle King's expression was cruel as he stared at the camera. He couldn't tolerate anyone committing such a misdeed on his planet. To him, Han Sen was a very dead man.
Clear Sea King walked next to Han Sen. He believed Han Sen could not escape with the box of Galaxy Sand.
Han Sen walked slowly, and he looked at the Meka all around. The shops and streets were all roadblocked, so there was no chance of him running.
"You sure you don't want to go faster? If I don't see Speechless in half an hour, the deal is off. Then, I will attack you." Clear Sea King looked at Han Sen. Han Sen's calm demeanor was starting to worry him.
Clear Sea King did not detect any significant power from him, so he did not believe Dollar could escape.
"Half an hour is enough." Han Sen smiled and kept walking.
Han Sen was more popular than a superstar. All the cameras, weapons, and Nobles were trained on him. Even if Han Sen could fly, it was unlikely he'd escape from the planet.
The allotted time had almost passed. It had almost been half an hour. Han Sen had not even gone down a single street in that time. Battle King frowned and looked at the whole planet.
There was no other powerful King on the planet, so even Battle King wondered why Han Sen was so calm.
Half an hour went by, and Clear Sea King stopped Han Sen.
"Time is up; where is she?"
"Here." Han Sen looked at all the Meka warriors, then back at Clear Sea King. He clicked his fingers.

Chapter 1959 Red Mist King is Shining
Han Sen's fingers flashed with gold. The sky suddenly lit up, as the golden lights became coins that rained down. They covered an area of a dozen miles.
Ordinary Viscounts would not have power such as that. At best, they could only encompass an area of a few hundred meters. But Han Sen had his Soul Armor boost right now. The shadow of the Four-Faced Eight-Armed Buddha lurked behind him, unseen. The Buddha light was inside Han Sen's body, imbuing him with the power of a Marquise. That was how he was able to summon the big Coin rain.
All the gold lights became coins, which landed across the Meka's xenogeneic gene battle bodies. It was like the Meka had been hit with big chunks of metal, making them heavier.
The lower level xenogeneic gene battle bodies crashed to the ground. The bodies belonging to those of a higher level began to move slower.
"Amitabha!" Clear Sea King spoke the Buddha catchphrase, but he didn't do anything. He went through the coinfall and came before Han Sen. He waved his sleeve like a cloud, trying to capture Han Sen inside it.
Han Sen didn't dodge, though. His left-hand possessed a red mist, and it shone. A strong red metal body came out of it. It threw a punch towards Clear Sea King.
Boom!
A scary red mist light punched into Clear Sea King's sleeve. The sleeve deflated and tore. The red light went through the sleeve, up and into his chest.
Clear Sea King started to bleed as his body was sent flying away. He went barreling down the street like a meteor, crashing into Battle King's ornate house. He broke the palace-like construct in half.
Everyone watching was stunned. No one could believe that a King had been sent flying like that.
Han Sen was shocked, too. He used Clear Sea King's mistake to give himself an advantage and opportunity. He didn't expect that a less-than-one-percent release of energy could be so powerful that it'd knock a King class into the distance.
Han Sen didn't spare much time thinking, though. Red Mist King picked up Han Sen and sprinted towards the teleporter.
There was a boom noise. All the buildings and xenogeneic gene battle bodies in front of Red Mist King were pushed away.
The Meka were still frozen, and not a single one of them moved. With Clear Sea King having been punched away, none dared step in Han Sen's path.
A roar came out of Battle King's house. Battle King was riding a giant, bear-shaped xenogeneic gene battle body forward, wanting to stop Han Sen and Red Mist King.
Battle King hadn't expected something of this sort could happen. He thought that since Clear Sea King was right next to Han Sen, Battle King himself would only have to make sure his subordinates were in order. He hadn't expected Han Sen to pose such a threat. Now it was too late, and Red Mist King was jumping into a teleporter alongside Han Sen, to disappear amidst the depths of space.
Battle King roared. His battle body broke the teleporter, but his anger was futile.
Clear Sea King came out of the rubble with lips caked in blood. He looked awful. He was injured, but most of all, he was angry.
Han Sen went back to the copper palace. He got out of Red Mist King's hand, and Little Seven came out of Red Mist King's heart.
That punch had consumed all of Red Mist King's energy. There was only 0.01% of energy left now, and it hurt Han Sen to see.
Luckily, he had managed to obtain one hundred Galaxy Sand crystals. If he hadn't gotten those, it would have been a grand loss.
Back on Planet Eclipse, Han Sen researched the Meka. He noticed that news concerning Dollar and Clear Sea King had spread far across the universe.
The Buddha and the Meka had put out an APB on Red Mist King and Dollar. If anyone could provide a lead that led to either of their capture, they would be handsomely rewarded.
Han Sen saw the rewards up for grabs, and fancied taking off his own head for Red Mist King to deliver.
The entire geno universe was talking about it, but they were mostly talking about Red Mist King.
People began talking about the last time Red Mist King had made an appearance. It became known that he was a rare Meka xenogeneic gene battle body, and that he must be King class.
But before that, no one had ever seen Red Mist King. Not even the Meka knew about him, which was fairly scary.
A mysterious xenogeneic gene battle body and a human named Dollar had managed to scam a King class Buddha and escape from Meka. It just didn't sound possible.
Many creatures now hoped to find them, in the hopes of obtaining the rewards put up by the factions slighted.
The Buddha were in a major rush to find him, in particular. They had just lost Seven Spirit, and Speechless herself had been kidnapped. It was a divine insult. But after a long time of searching, no one was able to find out anything concerning Dollar and Red Mist King.
When Yisha heard that Dollar had appeared on Meka, she herself assembled a group to find out more. But they didn't uncover anything, either.
Han Sen took the one hundred grains of Galaxy Sand to the Alliance. He planned on refining them while he practiced The Story of Genes.
Other geno arts could advance and achieve breakthroughs by simple practice, but The Story of Genes required some sort of external force.
Han Sen brought out the Galaxy Sand grains, but before he started refining them, he saw a blue shadow travel through the wall. It appeared like a phantom.
"Little Star, why are you here?" Han Sen was surprised as he looked at Little Star. Little Star had eaten many xenogeneic genes, and he was very talented. So, he had now reached the Alliance.
Little Star was very tame, and he was able to travel through materials. He had never entered a room without permission before, though.
Little Star's sudden appearance in Han Sen's room was very weird.
Little Star canceled its Starsea Travel, and it brought its shiny body right up to Han Sen. It was staring at Han Sen's Galaxy Sand.
"You want this?" Han Sen then thought to himself, "Little Star's original name was Starsea Beast. Galaxy Sand came from the Galaxy Dragon. Are they connected?"
Little Star nodded and started licking Han Sen's face.
"Bringing this back here cost me a fortune." Han Sen looked at the box of Galaxy Sand with regret.
But seeing the look on Little Star's face, he didn't want to reject its request. So, he took one out and coughed. "I'll let you try one."

Chapter 1960 Starsea Beast Evolves
Little Star was so happy, and it wagged its tail. It stuck out its tongue and consumed one whole piece of Galaxy Sand. It didn't even chew the thing before gulping it down.
"People might think you were a pig. You should at least try to taste it." Han Sen looked depressed.
Little Star did not listen to Han Sen, though. It started to shine, until a strange aura burst out from it.
"Don't generate geno armor here. Stop!" Han Sen did not expect that a single grain of Galaxy Sand would force Little Star to produce its geno armor, so he shouted loudly in surprise.
But Little Star could not control the process. So, Han Sen brought it to the space tunnel and took it to Planet Eclipse.
Little Star shone with starlight. And then, it generated a starry set of armor. Without stopping, the star armor melted into a geno fluid that was absorbed by its body. The generation was heading into a second cycle.
Little Star's second evolution was xenogeneic. Its starlight grew brighter, and it looked like a beast shrouded amid a countless number of stars.
Little Star finished its evolution, and then put its head next to Han Sen. It was staring at the box that contained the Galaxy Sand.
Han Sen hid the box behind him, but Little Star was still looking at Han Sen with its eyes wide open. It looked as if the creature was begging.
"I can only give you one more, then. But no more after this!" Han Sen felt pretty bad about it, but he gave in under Little Star's gaze.
Little Star licked Han Sen and swallowed the grain of Galaxy Sand.
The most shocking thing was that after eating it, Little Star leveled up once again. It generated starlight power and became a Viscount.
"D*mn! These things are that good?" Han Sen gritted his teeth and decided to give another one to Little Star. He wanted to see how much he could level it up. If one level really did equate to one grain of Galaxy Sand, then that would be wonderful.
But Han Sen's wishes were not fulfilled this time. After Little Star swallowed the third piece of Galaxy Sand, it did not level up. The stars around it grew brighter, but that was it.
Little Star looked at Han Sen, but Han Sen did not provide it with any more. He called Little Angel, Zero, Han Meng'er, and Dragon Lady. He gave them each a grain of Galaxy Sand, with the hopes of bringing them up to become Viscounts.
But after they used the Galaxy Sand, none of them became a Viscount. That surprised Han Sen.
Dragon Lady said, "Galaxy Sand is powerful, but we have different elements. We have to refine it well for full-digestion, otherwise it will be hard to level up."
The other three nodded and agreed with Dragon Lady. They were in a similar predicament as her, too.
Han Sen ate one himself, then. The Galaxy Sand dissolved into a liquid inside his body. The power streamed through this body like a river.
Han Sen quickly cast The Story of Genes to absorb the power of the Galaxy Sand.
The Story of Genes was really compatible. Han Sen had no trouble connecting with different elements, so he was able to use the energy quite effectively.
Galaxy Sand was powerful, and it took Han Sen a few hours to completely refine the energy he was bestowed. It was difficult to refine it all. Han Sen gave Little Silver a grain of Galaxy Sand next, but he was already a Viscount. It didn't work well on him, but it did provide him a lot of power to refine slowly.
Luckily, Little Star was a xenogeneic. If anybody asked where it came from, Han Sen could just say it was from Planet Eclipse.
The tale might seem unlikely, but there were enough xenogeneics on Planet Eclipse that it would be difficult to prove if the tale was true or false.
Han Sen took the grains of Galaxy Sand back with him to the Alliance, and he began refining it one piece per day. He spent his leftover time learning geno arts and staying with his family.
Han Sen thought that due to the fact that there were so many grains of Galaxy Sand, with each one packing so much energy, the bounty would eventually bring his The Story of Genes up to Earl class. After refining half of the lode, though, there had yet to be a single sign of him leveling up again.
Han Sen was depressed, so he decided to feed Little Star a few more. Little Star ate ten of them, and eventually, it became an Earl.
"That is a staggering difference." Han Sen felt depressed.
He knew Little Star's element was highly compatible with the Galaxy Sand, but it really was so much easier for Little Star to level up compared to him and The Story of Genes.
Han Sen refined the rest of the Galaxy Sand himself, and when he was done, he felt himself teetering on the brink of leveling up. But even so, he couldn't get that last push to nudge him into Earl class.
"So many pieces of Galaxy Sand. If I had given them all to Little Star, it might have become a Marquise."
Han Sen felt bad about his decision, but it was not as if he had anything better to do. The days he spent holding his daughter and kissing his wife were great, and Han Sen didn't worry too much about things he couldn't change. Yisha sent a message to his base, asking for Han Sen to meet her on Planet Blade.
When Han Sen was standing in front of Yisha, she saw that Han Sen had recovered his human form. She looked startled.
"Since when have you been a human again?" Yisha asked Han Sen.
"I practiced The Story of Genes every day. Within two months, I was back in a human state. Unfortunately, I feared there might be some side effects. So, I planned to practice for a while longer to make sure I wouldn't turn back into an ant or something before telling you." Han Sen had already prepped this speech beforehand.
Yisha nodded and said, "I hatched a plan for fixing this, but since you are already healed, I guess there is no need for it. Don't go around telling everybody you are healed, though. And don't go drawing any unnecessary attention."
Yes," Han Sen said quickly.
After a moment of silence, Yisha went on to say, "There are too many spies on Planet Eclipse. Don't go back just yet. I will send you to Sky Palace for the time being, and you can study there."
"Sky Palace?" Han Sen was surprised.
Han Sen had heard this name before. When the crazy crystallizer opened the gate of the Sanctuaries, Han Sen met a man who said he owned the throne of Sky Palace.
And Littleflower was almost taken by that man. Luckily, Han Sen was able to get away in time.
Yisha said, "Sky Palace's leader is a deified elite. He has a deep connection with my elder. I used to practice in Sky Palace, as well. In essence, half of what I was taught came from him. I have already informed him of your arrival, and so he will assuredly take care of you."
"But Queen, I want to study where you are near." Han Sen looked sincere as he stared at Yisha.
The leader of Sky Palace had seen Han Sen before. If he was recognized, things could go bad very quickly 'You are going there tomorrow." Yisha obviously wasn't interested in a debate.

Chapter 1961 Sky Palace
Han Sen had to go to Sky Palace, so he told Xie Qing King and the others. They were to take care of Planet Eclipse for him in the meantime, and they discussed plans for the future.
Han Sen was not worried about how Planet Eclipse would fare, nor Xie Qing King. As long as Han Sen's identity was not exposed, Yisha would also be there to safeguard the planet. No harm should come to Xie Qing King and the others while he was gone.
Han Sen was scared of people recognizing him in Sky Palace. If he was found out, all sorts of trouble could come.
The next morning, Xie Qing King called for a ship and had Han Sen shuttled off to Sky Palace in secret.
Sky Palace had many requirements for entry, so only proper students were allowed to enter the place. Han Sen was allowed in only because of his association with Yisha. None of his companions were, however.
On the way there, Han Sen found himself stricken with boredom. He watched Bubble jump up and down for a while.
The creature was an optimistic thing, and it never appeared worried.
Aside from Bubble, Han Sen even had to leave behind Little Invisible. Without explicit permission, you were not allowed to bring anything else. If he was found out to have smuggled something in, he'd be a dead man.
With a deified elite there, Han Sen wouldn't make the smallest move out of line.
Sky Palace was far away from Narrow Moon. It took him an entire month to reach his destination, despite taking multiple hyperspace jumps.
Sky Palace was a massive xenogeneic space. The ship Yisha sent had no permission to land, so it came to a stop at a planet nearby. After they confirmed Han Sen's identity, they sent another ship for Han Sen to travel in on.
When Han Sen entered Sky Palace, he found many islands floating in the air. It was just sky everywhere he looked. The islands went on and on, both above and below him. How many there were in total, he could not guess.
Sky Palace must have been notified of his arrival. When Han Sen entered, a man rode towards him atop a big white bird.
"Are you Han Sen?" the man asked, bowing. He was very clean, and he looked like someone in their early twenties. The image, however, was marred by a wound on his forehead.
Or at least, Han Sen thought it was a small wound. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was a third eye.
"My name is Han Sen; what is your name?" Han Sen replied with a bow.
"My name is Thousand Feather Crane, and I am a student of one of the elders here. I have been sent here by my master to guide you along the Sky Road."
"Sky Road? I thought we were going to Sky Palace," Han Sen asked, confused.
Thousand Feather Crane did not appear to be in a rush, and so he said, "The first master made a rule. Any non-student that comes here must traverse the Sky Road alone. If you cannot travel through it, then that means you are not the heir of a deified. In that case, you will be shut out. Please forgive me."
"I see. Please lead the way, then." Han Sen was happy.
Han Sen did not want to enter Sky Palace. If there was a rule like this, in which he had to traverse the Sky Road, he could deliberately fail the test. Then he could go home.
"Please." Thousand Feather Crane performed a gesture, and the white bird lowered its head.
Han Sen climbed on its back, and then Thousand Feather Crane commanded that it fly. It rose towards the closest floating isle they could see. As the bird took them there, Han Sen asked Thousand Feather Crane for more information concerning the Sky Road.
Sky Palace had many floating islands, and not even a student such as himself could guess the sheer number of them. The most famous one wasn't the one where the leaders resided, though. It was actually the one beginners visited. It was called Sky Door Island.
Sky Door Island was not very big. It was only a kilometer in length, and about a dozen meters wide. There were only a door and a stone path.
Anyone who came to this xenogeneic space—deified elites included—had to go to that island. They had to take the stone steps, unless they wished to be treated as an enemy.
Sky Door Island did not have anything special. The door and the stairs were ordinary. It was something that possessed a meaning under-the-hood, more than anything.
But when you walked past all the stairs, you would reach the Sky Road.
The Sky Door Island's steps were right across the main island. Between the two islands, there was a giant gourd vine which made up the road.
If you wanted to enter Sky Palace, you had to go past the vine and reach the island. If you fell, it meant you weren't qualified.
"Brother Thousand Feathers, what is so special about this gourd vine?" Han Sen asked with curiosity when he saw Sky Door Island.
Thousand Feather Crane smiled and said, "Don't worry. The Sky Road is not dependent on your strength. If it is your destiny to do so, an ordinary person or creature that has not yet generated a geno armor can reach that island. You are a student of Knife Queen, so you must have some sort of destiny. You must be able to reach the main island."
Han Sen wished to ask more, but the bird was directly in front of Sky Door Island now. It landed in front of a door that had been built from stone.
"Brother Han, please." Thousand Feather Crane gestured towards the door.
Han Sen got off the bird and went atop the stone platform. When he looked up, there were a thousand steps trailing off into the sky. At the end of the stairs was the green vines looked like a dragon perched amidst the clouds.
Many green gourds were hanging on the vine. Some were as big as buildings, whereas others were as small as a fingertip. They were all green.
After Han Sen said his thanks to Thousand Feather Crane, he went through the door and began his ascent of the steps. He was headed for the gourd vine.
And just as he was told, the stone stairs presented nothing special. It wasn't much later when Han Sen reached the end. The big gourd vine was in front of him. It was wide enough to allow a carriage to go along it.
"How can you fall off of this vine? There must be some other force at work here, but whatever it is, Thousand Feather Crane didn't think to tell me," Han Sen thought to himself.
Han Sen used his Dongxuan Aura to take a look. The gourd vine had the constancy of a machine. It somehow seemed more substantial than Clear Sea King, who was a King.
Han Sen was shocked. "Is this gourd, that's scarier than a real dragon, greater than a King class elite?"
"Who cares? I'm not making it all the way across, anyway. If something goes wrong, I'll just jump down." Han Sen went towards the gourd vine, planning to lose the contest.

Chapter 1962: Strange Reaction
On an island in Sky Palace, a middle-aged man in gray clothing watched the gourd vine.
"Father, what are you looking at?" A young lady walked up the middle-aged man in gray clothing and looked in the same direction.
"Knife Queen's student is in Sky Palace. He is on the Sky Road now," the middle-aged man in gray clothing said.
The lady lifted her lips and said, "What's the big deal? Many heirs of Kings come to Sky Palace for practice. Having him here should have no bearing. Besides, he is just her student. It's not as if he is her son."
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Knife Queen is the old man's favorite student. She asked the old man for permission to allow her own student to come here for practice. The old man agreed without a moment of hesitation. If he can cross the Sky Road, the old man is going to give him a placement in the White Jade Building, no matter what."
The lady's eyes opened wide. "The old man has shown too much favoritism. We are the true students of Sky Palace, and we have to be in the top ten to attain a spot in the White Jade Building. He hasn't done anything, and yet he earns a spot? That is not fair!"
The middle-aged man in gray clothing laughed. "There is no such thing as fair. The old man owns Sky Palace, so he is free to do that which makes him the happiest. Lady Su, keep in mind that everyone shares a different opinion on that which defines fairness. If you do not understand this, things may turn out poorly for you."
The lady nodded. She seemed to understand, but not completely.
The lady quickly looked away. She smiled and said, "It does not matter how much the old man likes him; if he cannot cross Sky Road, it is useless to debate. Not everyone can cross the Sky Road, after all. He will soon see how difficult that crossing can be."
The middle-aged man in gray clothing smiled. "Lady Su, you are too naive. If Knife Queen sent him here, he has the confidence to make it through. Now we have to find out if he can trigger the holy presence from the holy gourd."
Lady Su felt glum, and she said, "The gourd rarely releases a holy aura for our proper students. What makes him think he can trigger it?"
"Back in the day, Knife Queen triggered the holy gourd's holy aura. She was an outsider at the time, too. She got a holy gourd knife air; if she hadn't, she wouldn't have achieved King class at such an early age. And then proceed to become half-deified so soon after. That gourd helped a lot," the middle-aged man in gray clothing said.
"Knife Queen is a real genius. Even the old man has said she may well become a deified being. I don't know about her student, though. I have heard he is a crystallizer, mind you. Kong Fei gave him a deified feather, and still no one dared to accept him. You can see how talented he is from that," Lady Su said, with a blinking of her eyes.
The middle-aged man in gray clothing shook his head. "They didn't refuse him because of a lack of talent. They refused him because of the instability of his genes. It is difficult to predict the future of a man like that. Whatever the case, it would be risking a grand investment."
"Let's see how talented he is, then," Lady Su said.
Han Sen glanced over the giant gourd vine that looked like a dragon. He stepped onto it, to reach the main green vine. But when he stepped onto it, he was shocked.
The gourd vine was fine, but the gourds started to shake. Each and every one of them. They were like vibrating dolls as they hung across the vines. It was quite spooky.
But aside from shaking, they did nothing else.
"No way! It looks very powerful, but that is surely just a bluff. If I fall down now, Yisha will kill me." Han Sen thought about that, and decided to keep walking.
Everywhere he went, the gourds vibrated. If they were not connected to the vine, they would surely have flown away.
When Han Sen saw that they were doing nothing but shaking, he relaxed and kept walking across the vine. He thought to himself, "The Sky Road cannot be this simple, surely. There must be some special trick to it. Let's walk forward and have a looksie."
Han Sen kept walking across the gourd vine, while the people across Sky Palace were in shock.
Thousand Feather Crane looked towards Han Sen's feet and saw the gourds vibrating like mad. His eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
He had been in Sky Palace for twenty years, and he had watched many creatures make the trip across the Sky Road. Some had passed over the vine without incident, some had been knocked off by an angered vine, and a select few had received approval by a holy gourd and been given a holy aura.
When Thousand Feather Crane crossed the Sky Road, he received a holy aura from a holy gourd. That in itself was a rare thing.
But he had never seen something like this transpire before. The gourds all looked scared of Han Sen, and they were shaking as if they wished to escape from him.
"What is it with this guy?" Thousand Feather Crane watched Han Sen cross over the holy gourds.
Lady Su and the middle-aged man in gray clothing saw this as well. It prompted Lady Su to ask, with much shock, "Father, what are these gourds doing? It doesn't look as if they're giving out a holy aura. But I've never heard of the gourds reacting like this to the approach of someone."
The middle-aged man in gray clothing looked at the vine and said, "This is strange. The gourds have not approved his talent, but…they are scared of him."
"The gourds are scared of him? That is impossible! He is just a Viscount. The holy gourd is a deified plant. Even if a deified elite was making the crossing, it shouldn't be scared. He is just a Viscount," Lady Su said again, dripping with disbelief.
This shouldn't happen, but the gourds do look scared." The middle-aged man in gray clothing stroked his jaw and looked at Han Sen atop the gourd vine with interest.
In Sky Palace, many people were now focusing on Han Sen. Each and every person there had a strange expression.
Wherever he went, the gourds would shake with fear in a ten meter radius around him. When Han Sen went by, and they fell out of that radius, the gourds would revert to their still selves again.
While Han Sen was walking, nothing else happened aside from the shivering of the gourds. It actually made Han Sen depressed.
"D*mn it! Something please happen. I can't just jump off. If I go back now, Yisha will kill me." Han Sen's mind was racing for a solution.
But his minutes of furious thinking were futile. Before he knew it, he had walked to the other end of the gourd vine. He reached the stone steps on the main island, and the gourd had yet to have a response.

Chapter 1963: Road to the Sky
"Strange. All the gourds showed a reaction, but they didn't give out a holy aura. This is really strange." Inside a building, a man of the Sky race frowned as he looked upon Han Sen traversing the Sky Road. He was in deep thought.
Everyone in Sky Palace showed a similar expression. They had never seen a holy gourd react that way, and so no one knew what it meant.
If Han Sen was talented, the holy gourd would provide him with a holy aura. His potential was yet to be determined. Wherever he went, the gourds did have a reaction, but it was one that yielded nothing. It was very peculiar.
Han Sen felt depressed. He thought he could go home by failing under spectacular circumstances, but the Sky Road was nothing special. It was like an ordinary bridge, really, except longer. It also went upwards.
Han Sen stepped onto the main island, and then Thousand Feather Crane rode his bird over towards him. Han Sen said to him, "That gourd vine only shakes. Is it supposed to spook people into falling off?"
Thousand Feather Crane looked at him strangely, and said, "Brother Han is talented. You have nothing to be afraid of. It is getting late, and the leader awaits you. Let us be off!"
Han Sen followed him via the steps. They went between a vast array of clouds, many of which had buildings situated upon them. It was like he was in heaven.
The jade stone steps were going up high. When Han Sen finally saw the end, he found himself looking at a grand palace. Ahead was a large plaque that said, "Sky Palace."
Han Sen walked up the stairs, one step at a time. Every step he took felt heavier than the last. It was not that the stairs had some trick to them, it was just that the Sky Palace looked so intimidating. People below it would feel pressure going up.
It wasn't just a feeling, either. There was an increased weight upon his shoulders. The closer he got, the stronger it grew.
Thousand Feather Crane kept watch over Han Sen.
The staircase to Sky Palace was called the Road to the Sky. Those of the Sky race felt no particular sensation when they climbed the stairs, but the outsiders that traversed those stairs would feel a massive amount of pressure from Sky Palace. The pressure came from the plaque that said Sky Palace.
The plaque was crafted by the first leader of Sky Palace. It had the powers of Sky Palace Outer Sky. It suppressed all people. People with a poor will would be greatly suppressed, and they would not be able to reach Sky Palace.
Even people with strong wills would feel as if they were marching through hell when they walked that road. Most of them would feel exhausted as they climbed.
Thousand Feather Crane kept watching Han Sen, just in case he fell. If he did, Thousand Feather Crane would carry Han Sen to Sky Palace. It was his job to guide him there.
Han Sen had been invited by the Sky Palace leader. He had crossed the Sky Road, and so Thousand Feather Crane could not allow him to be crushed by the Road to the Sky. And it would look poorly if he ended up crawling in.
Not much later, he saw Han Sen frown. He paid more attention to Han Sen, ready to help him if he collapsed. The first leader of Sky Palace was powerful. A mere two words were enough to buckle most people's knees.
Normally, only Dukes could withstand the pressure and enter. Han Sen was just a Viscount, so it would not be embarrassing for him to be unable to keep his feet.
But only people who went through it the first time would suffer this pressure. They wouldn't feel it once they were past it, and that was what was most amazing about the Road to the Sky.
Han Sen frowned and kept ascending the stairs. His pace was ordinary, and there was no sign of him struggling. He looked at the plaque that read Sky Palace.
Han Sen could discern the feelings elicited by the words, and he understood how intimidating they were. It made him admire whoever had left the words there.
Han Sen did not fight back with his will. He had come there to practice, so he wasn't there to cause issues. And the leader was Yisha's teacher. He didn't want to embarrass himself, so he didn't fight it. He accepted the feelings the two words gave him.
Sky Palace feelings were strange. Han Sen felt as if he was getting crushed. It was getting harder and harder to walk, and his forehead eventually started to sweat.
Han Sen refused to fight against the feelings the words gave him, but it was still very difficult to bear with them. If Han Sen did not possess a great will of his own, he'd have been brought down to the ground and made immobile.
Thousand Feather Crane observed the beads of sweat on Han Sen, and noted how it looked as if the man had just stepped out of the water. He frowned.
They had only gone up one hundred steps, and yet, Han Sen sheened in sweat. It was pretty extreme.
He was a Viscount, so there was no way he'd last one thousand steps. But if Han Sen's situation continued like that, he might not even make it to the two hundredth step.
"Sky Palace is strong." Han Sen was shocked.
Han Sen did not use his own will to try to break Sky Palace's will, but it was obviously very powerful for it to suppress him like so. Han Sen did not know what to do.
Since Han Sen had decided not to fight back, he didn't plan on releasing the feeling. He accepted the pressure and just kept going. It was so heavy, it was like he was carrying a mountain. Every step he took left the stair behind him wet with sweat.
Han Sen kept feeling that pressure as he walked, and as he pushed on, he learned something.
It was a pure feeling, and it did not come from Han Sen. The intensity of the suppression began to give Han Sen some manner of inspiration.
The Dongxuan Aura's power could only mask his senses. It didn't affect his body.
If Dongxuan Aura could be suppressed like so, the power would reach another level.
As Han Sen kept walking, he loosened himself up. He allowed the pressure to fall on him fully. He hoped to learn something from those words.
It was getting harder and harder for Han Sen to walk. By the time he reached the two hundredth step, he had to spend a lot of power to take every step forward.
"Let me carry you." Thousand Feather Crane saw Han Sen on the verge of collapse, and so he resolved to help him.

Chapter 1964 Whose Road to the Sky
Han Sen was suffering beneath the Sky Palace text. He could not focus on anything else, and he did not hear what Thousand Feather Crane had said to him.
Thousand Feather Crane could see Han Sen suffering, though. And without thinking, he moved to grab hold of him. "Relax, it is okay." Thousand Feather Crane smiled as he helped Han Sen.
The feelings around Sky Palace were strong, but Thousand Feather Crane possessed the blood of the Sky. He was born there, and he was immune to that power. He held Han Sen with ease, because he felt nothing. It'd be so light, even if Han Sen was getting crushed.
Thousand Feather Crane saw that Han Sen was continuing to walk forward, and so gave him his own arm to hold and support him. If he fell, Thousand Feather Crane would use his own strength.
Although Han Sen looked to be weary and in pain, he still managed to cross the five-hundred step milestone. But after that, his body could no longer endure the force. It bent his back.
Thousand Feather Crane pulled his arm upwards to help Han Sen stand straighten But when he used strength to lift Han Sen, he felt as if the man's weight was like that of a large boulder. He had to use a great deal of force to get Han Sen to stand straight.
"Relax; don't use strength. This is an illusion, and there is no actual pressure coming down on you." Thousand Feather Crane thought Han Sen was using strength because he was holding him.
Han Sen did not hear what he said. The scary feelings continued to pound down into his body, making him feel as if he was carrying a mountain. He had to focus.
Thousand Feather Crane held onto Han Sen as he ascended. The weight on Thousand Feather Crane's arms felt heavier and heavier, and he thought, "This guy's will is so weak. He is getting crushed, and he is using too much strength."
After a while, Han Sen seemed too heavy for Thousand Feather Crane to keep him upright. He looked at Han Sen's body and noticed he wasn't running any energy, and he wasn't using up any of his own strength.
"Weird; he hasn't cast anything. Why is he so heavy? Sky Palace should just apply mental pressure, and nothing physical." Thousand Feather Crane thought about it, but he couldn't figure out what was going on. So, he continued helping Han Sen.
Han Sen's body was getting heavier and heavier. Thousand Feather Crane had only used one arm to begin with, but now he was forced to use two. On top of that, it was getting extremely difficult.
"Hey, are you okay?" Thousand Feather Crane looked at Han Sen and frowned. Han Sen was looking very red, and his clothes were drenched in sweat. His breathing had become very hoarse, as if he was beginning to suffocate.
Han Sen's eyeballs were bulging in their sockets, with blood vessels popping. It was like his entire body was really going to be crushed.
Han Sen hadn't expected that when he let the feelings imbued by the text enter his body, it would be this scary. Now, he could only use his will to prevent himself from being crushed. Walking on his own really was impossible, at this point. After one thousand steps, he was being carried by Thousand Feather Crane.
Thousand Feather Crane had no clue what was going on. The feelings of Sky Palace were powerful, but they should not have been that strong.
He didn't realize that Han Sen had asked for this. Instead of fighting the feelings, he practically invited them into his body. No one had ever done something that crazy before, so it was an entirely unexpected event. When Thousand Feather Crane realized what had happened, he didn't know how things would progress from there.
Han Sen had slowed to a stop, and he didn't seem to be awake. Thousand Feather Crane carried Han Sen. Lifting Han Sen put an enormous strain on his arms, requiring all of his strength. Quickly, his arms became completely exhausted. He couldn't hold Han Sen off the ground.
Thousand Feather Crane gritted his teeth and set Han Sen down. He moved in front of Han Sen, then used Han Sen's arm to pull the young man onto his back.
After Thousand Feather Crane lifted Han Sen onto his back, he continued walking towards Sky Palace.
"Knife Queen's student is strange. He had reached such a dire state just walking on the Road to the Sky." Thousand Feather Crane felt depressed, but he still carried Han Sen.
The old man in Sky Palace was waiting for Han Sen, so he couldn't just leave him behind and keep going by himself.
Thousand Feather Crane hurried up the pace at which he was carrying Han Sen, but after a while, he slowed down again. It was not like he wanted to be slow; it was just because Han Sen was as heavy as a small mountain. He couldn't walk fast.
The higher he went, the heavier Han Sen became. Thousand Feather Crane's forehead was beading with sweat.
"Is this his Road to the Sky? Or is it my Road to the Sky?" Thousand Feather Crane continued carrying Han Sen, and before long, he was sweating all over.
After nine thousand steps, Thousand Feather Crane was all red. The sweat had soaked his clothing, and the prettiness of his face had vanished. He was gasping roughly for air.
"I can't believe he is this heavy. No way he can unleash this sort of power, if he is indeed just a Viscount. He doesn't even have an energy flow. Where is this magic coming from? Is it because of the feelings issued by the Sky Palace text?"
Thousand Feather Crane pondered as he walked on.
Thousand Feather Crane was an Earl. He could have carried a dragon, and walked up each and every step without so much as getting out of breath.
But now, veins were bulging across his arms and legs. He was exhausting all his strength in this walk. He was breathing so heavily, it looked as if he was going to breathe fire. Boom!
A white cloud poured out of Thousand Feather Crane, like steam stemming from his pores. The white smoke then condensed, swirling closely around Thousand Feather Crane's body.
Thousand Feather Crane could no longer keep going with physical strength alone, so he was using his cloud powers.
Han Sen's situation was worse than Thousand Feather Crane's, though. Something inside his body had been crushed. His bones and flesh were collapsing, making him look like an anorexic patient. The parts of him that had meat were caved in, and his bones groaned amidst it. They were going to break.
One step, one stair. Ten steps brought blood and sweat. Thousand Feather Crane, seeing things were almost over, felt his legs shaking violently.
He tried his hardest, but the final few steps were taking up all his strength. He almost fell down right in front of the gate. He used all his strength to push through it and carry Han Sen through the gates.
After entering, Thousand Feather Crane felt light again. He almost moaned in pleasure. He felt relieved, and he said, "Finally, we are here!"
On the steps between the clouds, no one had seen what was going on. But when Thousand Feather Crane walked in, the people saw he had carried Han Sen. And they were all given a shock.
For as long as Sky Palace had existed, no one had been carried like that before.

Chapter 1965 White Jade Jing
Han Sen had walked the sky jade steps, and everyone knew Thousand Feather Crane had to carry him into Sky Palace.
This was far too weird, though. Han Sen had almost passed out when he was brought inside. Thousand Feather Crane continued carrying him until they reached the leader of Sky Palace.
Han Sen was drifting in and out of consciousness. He couldn't see what the leader of Sky Palace looked like, but he was brought back out by Thousand Feather Crane.
Something this strange had never happened before, so there was much discussion surrounding the event.
"This must be the first time the old man has met with someone that was carried in. I heard his own beard bent in surprise."
"How could he walk the Road to the Sky like that? That guy's unique."
"Or more like creepy. Haha!"
"No matter how creepy he is, the old man still accepted him. He still managed to obtain a placement in White Jade Building. He is lucky to be Knife Queen's student."
"Yeah. The old man respects Knife Queen, and she is really good. The old man really does treat her like a proper student. It does seem weird that she would take on a student as strange as the one she did."
Han Sen slept for twenty-four hours straight. After that, he was fully recovered. The feelings of suppression had finally faded.
After waking, he found himself lying on a jade bed. The room had nothing, in terms of decor. It was a stone house with a jade bed, a stone table, and four stone stools.
Han Sen stretched and felt pretty good. Letting those harsh feelings into his body had been an excruciating thing to suffer, but it hadn't been in vain. Han Sen hadn't been able to figure out how to make his Dongxuan Aura into something solid, but he still learned something important from accepting that feeling.
When Han Sen was suppressed by the Jade Turtle Spell, the Dongxuan Aura had simulated the workings of the technique. That was how he was able to tear the spell off.
Since then, Han Sen had frequently played with the spell. He used Dongxuan Aura to study it, but the spell's power was very complicated. It was difficult for him to learn its workings, and he made little progress.
But when Sky Palace entered his body while he was on the stairs, he felt there was something in common with Jade Turtle Spell.
Sky Palace only imbued a feeling without applying anything solid, and Jade Turtle Spell's energy flow was too hard to understand completely. When they were both compared, however, the comparison opened Han Sen's mind. He felt happy.
As he learned more, he noticed it had things in common with Coin, too. By continuing to examine the skills, he was able to learn a lot more.
While he could still feel the wisps of that suppression, Han Sen pulled out Jade Turtle Spell and used Dongxuan Aura to dive in. He tried to learn something from the spell, so he could confirm his theories.
Han Sen sat on the jade bed as he looked over the Jade Turtle Spell. But he quickly found that the Jade Turtle Spell behaved as if it had grown weaker. It used to be like jade, but now it was like rock.
Two days later, the Jade Turtle Spell suddenly cracked and became dust. It had become useless.
Han Sen was shocked, but he was happy about this. He had learned a lot.
Han Sen had disappeared for a few days, and rumors were floating around the palace. People believed Han Sen had been in a mini-coma for days, and that he had incurred serious injuries. He had only been there for a few days, and he hadn't met many people at all. Yet despite that, he had become quite famous.
Many of the students in Sky Palace were curious. They wanted to know what sort of person Han Sen was.
Han Sen exited his stone house and noticed that he was standing on a floating island. It was more like a large rock than an island, though. Outside of the house, the ground around him was only about half the size of a baseball field.
On that small island, there was a crooked tree. Han Sen did not know what type of tree it was, but it looked half-dead, and it was covered in scorch marks. Its leaves were all yellow, and it looked ready to fall down at any given moment.
Han Sen looked around. The island was small, but it was very close to the primary isle. It was one of the closest islands to the main island, actually.
Han Sen looked around, and then he heard a bird. An elegant man riding a big white bird flew down and landed on the island.
Thank you for carrying me into Sky Palace," Han Sen said with genuine gratitude.
Han Sen was focused on the feelings of oppression, but he still remembered being carried into Sky Palace. If he hadn't received that aid, he would have been crushed on the stairs.
Thousand Feather Crane shook his head and said, "Bringing you to Sky Palace was my duty. There is no need to thank me."
After that, Thousand Feather Crane brought out a tablet for Han Sen and said, "This is a Sky Palace identity tablet. It will show others the level of authority and access you have within Sky Palace. Make sure you don't lose it! If you lose it, you will have to go to Clear Hall. If you don't, you will be punished."
"Sky Torture Peak has a tablet with rules inscribed upon it. You should go and take a look, just so you don't end up unknowingly breaking the rules," Thousand Feather Crane said.
"Thanks, Thousand Feather. Can I meet the palace leader now?" Han Sen put away the tablet.
"The leader has already seen you; there is no need for you to see him. He has given you permission to go to the White Jade Jing. Your identity tablet will allow you to practice there. It will help you."
"Where is White Jade Jing?" Han Sen asked.
Thousand Feather Crane pointed at Han Sen's identity tablet. "White Jade Jing has twelve floors and five cities. If the angels there touch my head, my hair will grow. White Jade Jing is a place for practicing. Simply being given permission to go there is a high honor. You will have to practice hard there, and not waste this glorious opportunity." Thousand Feather Crane hopped onto his white bird to leave.
"Thousand Feather, where are you going?" Han Sen quickly asked.
"I am going to practice in White Jade Jing!" Thousand Feather Crane answered.
"Great! I don't know the way there. Could you please take me?" Han Sen said, as he quickly hopped onto the bird.
Thousand Feather Crane looked depressed, but he did not say anything. He flew the big white bird to one of the floating islands.
"Sky Palace is great. If this was in the Alliance, this would make a grand place for tourists." Han Sen saw so many strange scenes and heavenly-looking buildings.

Chapter 1966 Jade Air
Open air extended as far as Han Sen could see both above and below Sky Palace. The islands floated together in the midst of a seemingly endless sea of sky.
Han Sen sat on Thousand Feather Crane's bird and admired the view. After one hour of travel, the snow-white bird descended on one island in particular. The island was situated between the clouds, so their vision was a little hindered. What could be seen clearly, however, were the twelve jade towers rising amidst the clouds.
The snow-white bird landed on the island, and Thousand Feather Crane and Han Sen dismounted. He noticed the whole island was composed of jade, but it didn't look manmade.
Thousand Feather Crane headed towards the White Jade Building. When Han Sen looked over there, he saw it glisten. He had barely been able to see the twelve White Jade Buildings from the air. When he was standing on the island, all he could see was one of them in front of him. The other eleven were nowhere to be seen.
Each White Jade Building consisted of seven floors. From where he was standing, he could see that the crystal constructs were protected by light. Just like the island, the jade did not look man-made. It was as if it had been born like that.
"Thousand Feather, who created the White Jade Building?" Han Sen asked as he walked.
Thousand Feather Crane answered, "White Jade Jing has twelve buildings and five cities. It existed long before the xenogeneic space was first discovered. They grew here naturally, instead of being built by people like you and me."
"This is amazing." Han Sen was interested in White Jade Jing.
They both came before the building. There were no guards around. Thousand Feather Crane pushed the door open and walked inside.
Han Sen was disappointed, and he said, "I thought that White Jade Jing is a place not many are allowed access to. Why are there no guards? Anyone could walk right in."
Thousand Feather Crane coldly said, "Didn't you see the two jade beasts outside the door? You can come in because you have a tablet. If you didn't have it, you'd have already been eaten alive by now. If you don't have the tablet, you cannot access this place."
"I see." Now Han Sen remembered the pair of three-meter-tall jade beasts. They looked like kirin, with one standing at each side of the building. He thought they were dead, but they were actually alive.
Thousand Feather Crane did not say anything more, and just kept on walking.
Han Sen was checking out the building, but there was nothing to see on the inside. There were just a few steps leading up to the second floor.
Han Sen, seeing Thousand Feather Crane ascend the flight of stairs, followed.
The second floor was the same as the last; it was empty. There was only another staircase that led up to the third floor. Han Sen thought this was strange, and so he asked, "Why is there nothing inside this building? What are the benefits to practicing here?"
Thousand Feather Crane approached the next flight of stairs and said, "It is not time for White Jade Jing to open yet. That is why there is nothing here. White Jade Tower has seven floors. The higher you go, there more Jade Air you can receive. You are a Viscount, so practicing on the third floor should be good. If you can take the Jade Air here, you can go up higher."
After that, Thousand Feather Crane went up to the third floor. Han Sen followed.
On the third floor, there was finally something to see. A few young Sky people were sitting. No one spoke and no one talked.
The few young ones, when seeing Thousand Feather Crane, stood up and said, "Greetings, Uncle Crane."
Thousand Feather Crane nodded and proceeded up to the fourth floor.
The young ones looked at Han Sen curiously, as if he was a stranger. They did not know if he was the student of Knife Queen that had just entered.
One of them did know Han Sen, however. It was Lady Su with the middle-aged man in gray clothing. Her full name was Yun Suyi. Lady Su was what her family called her.
Yun Suyi's eyes smiled like a moon. She sat in the corner, looked at Han Sen, and thought, "How dare he come here? He must be the first person who had to be carried into Sky Palace."
The other Skys were interested in Han Sen, as not many outsiders were allowed to enter White Jade Jing. And they hadn't heard of any that had received permission after being carried in.
A young man walked in front of Han Sen and said, "My name is Yun Fei; I am a student of one of the nine seats. Which are you from?"
"I am not a student of Sky Palace. My teacher is Knife Queen," Han Sen said.
"You are Han Sen? The one who got dragged here?" Yun Fei shouted in shock.
The other people stared at Han Sen as if he was an animal from the zoo.
Yes, I am that same Han Sen." Han Sen shrugged. He didn't really care what they thought of him.
"Bro, you are awesome. Ever since the Sky claimed this place, you are the first person to get carried in. How did you do that?" Yun Fei laughed as he patted Han Sen on the shoulder.
"That was an accident, I'm afraid. There is no need to be jealous." Han Sen laughed.
Yun Fei and the other Sky could see Han Sen had a mild temper and was willing to joke around, so they chatted for a while.
Only the elites of the Sky were permitted access to White Jade Jing. There was no conflict amongst them, so they chatted happily with each other.
Yun Suyi merely watched, however. She did not participate. Seeing Han Sen talk with them, she thought to herself, "He seems nice, but his will is weak. Why would Knife Queen be willing to accept a student such as this? He is not even one of the Rebate."
After talking for a while, Yun Fei suddenly said, "Time's up. Talk later."
After that, everyone found themselves a place to sit down.
Han Sen knew White Jade Jing was going to open, so he found a place to sit down as well.
The jade tower had no dust. The floor that was made from jade was smooth and cool. Han Sen felt a cool air enter his body as he sat.
As the cold air curled around Han Sen, the jade stone in the center of the floor began to emit white smoke. That white smoke expanded through the room, glittering as it went. It filled every inch of the air. Everyone cast their powers to absorb the smoke from the jade, creating small vortexes around them.
Han Sen had asked them about White Jade Tower while they were chatting, so he knew that he was supposed to use his geno art to absorb the Jade Air.
Suddenly, Han Sen felt a chill energy penetrate his body.

Chapter 1967 Absorbing Jade Air
The feeling was amazing. It was like many small ice cubes were melting around him. They melted when they touched his skin, and were then absorbed.
As the Jade Air was absorbed into his cells, Han Sen noticed some changes that were happening across his body. His skin was developing a jade-like color. Under the influence of the Jade Air, Yun Fei and the others were all shining like crystals. They were like statues built from jade.
"This powerful Jade Air can change the genes of the body? This Jade Air must come from a xenogeneic gene, yes?" Han Sen thought to himself.
"Left Crazy did say that rocks possessed sentience, but their lives are different from ours. White Jade Jing must be a creature, and the Jade Air must be a xenogeneic gene. That being said, I can't determine the level of White Jade Jing." Han Sen made a number of guesses while he absorbed the Jade Air.
But guessing was all he could do since his theories stemmed from what Left Crazy had once told him. No one could prove if what he was thinking was the truth.
Han Sen used The Story of Genes to absorb the Jade Air, transforming the Jade Air's energy.
The Story of Genes was very compatible when it came to other elements. After absorbing Jade Air, there was a noticeable improvement. But it still wasn't enough to break through, and there was obviously something missing.
"Didn't Thousand Feather Crane say that the higher you get, the stronger the Jade Air is? Maybe I can use a stronger Jade Air to breakthrough," Han Sen thought, standing up. He walked towards the fourth floor, with the Jade Air all around.
The third floor, with its Jade Air, offered too little for him. Everyone there was a Viscount, but Han Sen had used many xenogeneic genes to improve his body. He was much stronger than the average Viscount.
Han Sen could compete with Earls if he maxed out his genes as a Viscount.
When he stepped onto the fourth floor, he felt very cold. The third floor felt cool, but the fourth felt cold. After going in, he felt as if he had stumbled into an ice cave.
But that cold could not affect Han Sen's body. He looked around the fourth floor and saw some people sitting amidst swirls of Jade Air. Aside from the Sky, there were two outsider races. Thousand Feather Crane was not on this floor, however.
Han Sen absorbed the Jade Air to help breakthrough with The Story of Genes, but it wasn't working. So, he decided to walk to the fifth floor.
When he reached the fifth floor, he felt as if he had been frozen. He stopped at the entrance and became like a real statue.
The Jadeskin melted from ice to water, and with Han Sen's strength, he could not refine that Jade Air. The Jade Air started to fill his body. Han Sen felt his body go cold. It was not his temperature decreasing, either; it was his life that was weakening.
Han Sen could feel his body turning into jade, growing weaker. He cast The Story of Genes, but he could not withstand the jade.
The Jade Air's gene power was far stronger than Han Sen's gene power. So, the genes in his body were being changed by the Jade Air.
Han Sen was surprised. In the space of one floor, there had been a massive difference. His power was sufficient to counter the Jade Air, but that would nullify the point of practicing there.
Han Sen cast Petrify and turned himself to stone. When the Jade Air tried to invade the stone, it could not invade the genes of Han Sen's body. It moisturized Han Sen's petrified body, making itself much easier for him to absorb.
When using Petrify, the only other skill Han Sen could activate was The Story of Genes. So, without hesitating, he activated The Story of Genes to absorb the Jade Air around him.
The Jade Air was absorbed by his petrified body. He continued running The Story of Genes, and as he did so, his petrified body turned to jade.
The powerful Jade Air kept trying to break through and send him up to Earl class. But again and again, something held him back and made the process fail. The air was very powerful, but for some reason, it couldn't carry him through to the last stage.
After two hours, the Jade Air disappeared. And when it was gone, Han Sen stopped using Petrify. He felt awful.
"Such powerful Jade Air, and it still isn't enough to break through with The Story of Genes? What do I have to do to become an Earl?" Han Sen felt depressed.
The people on the fifth floor saw a stranger—they were looking at Han Sen. They noticed he was not of the Sky, and that was even weirder.
Those people did not know who Han Sen was, and they did not expect a Viscount could accompany them on the fifth floor when the Jade Air erupted. So, they guessed Han Sen was an Earl.
Han Sen did not stay and talk to them, and he went straight up to the sixth floor. He had Petrify, so the Jade Air could not damage him.
"If the fifth floor's Jade Air cannot help me break through, I will have to keep going." Han Sen walked to the sixth floor.
More people were practicing there.
It was not the time for Jade Air to erupt there, but no one noticed Han Sen. Han Sen looked around the sixth floor, and again he could not see Thousand Feather Crane. So, he went ahead to the seventh floor.
Han Sen found him there on the seventh floor. And on the seventh floor, aside from Han Sen himself, there were three people in total.
Two of them were of the Sky, and one of them was bald. He had nine moles on his head, so he was from the Buddha. He looked young, like Speechless. So, it must have been hard to reach this point at the age he was. He was the best of the Earls, as most Earls could go no further than the fifth floor.
Of the two Sky, one of them was Thousand Feather Crane. The other Sky was a young woman that Han Sen did not know.
Han Sen looked at them, and they looked at Han Sen.
"Brother Han, why are you not practicing down there? Why have you come here?" Thousand Feather Crane asked. Before Han Sen could answer, the young Sky woman looked at Han Sen and said, "You are Knife Queen's student Han
Han Sen saw how scared she looked, and he knew what she would soon say. He smiled and told her, "Yes. I am Han Sen, who was brought in by Thousand Feather Crane."

Chapter 1968 The Seventh Floor
The woman heard him and smiled. "You are very funny. My name is Yun Sushang. I am a student of the Tenth Elder. You can call me Senior."
"Greetings, Senior Yun," Han Sen said, suddenly feeling like he was back in school. It was actually a nice feeling.
Yun Sushang pointed at the Buddha man and said, "His name is First Day. The Buddha sent him here to study in Sky Palace, just like you."
"Amitabha! Greetings, Mister Han." First Day bowed before Han Sen.
Han Sen did not like the Buddha, but he didn't think that every single one of them was a bad person. He didn't know First Day, though, so he had no immediate reason to hate the man. That being said, he still wanted to avoid being First Day's friend. After the introductions, Han Sen turned to Thousand Feather Crane.
"Thousand Feather, I thought you said there were twelve White Jade Buildings. But I have only seen this one." If Han Sen couldn't achieve a breakthrough on the seventh floor, he thought that he might need a place with an even stronger Jade Air.
"There are twelve buildings and five cities in White Jade Jing. Most people only see the twelve White Jade Buildings, not the five cities. Consequently, they can only enter this one place. If you wish to enter the others, you must first understand the other towers," Thousand Feather Crane said.
"What is there to leam?" Han Sen asked.
"I don't know. It's just something you have to learn. It's hard for me to explain. But I think you should practice on the third or fourth floor. You can start thinking about moving on when you reach the fifth or sixth floor," Thousand Feather Crane said.
Han Sen wished to say something, but someone suddenly entered the seventh floor. It was Yun Suyi. They had met on the third floor.
Yun Suyi, upon seeing Han Sen, was shocked. When the Jade Air passed, Han Sen had vanished. She had believed that he had been unable to withstand it, and so he decided to leave. She didn't expect that Han Sen had already gone to the top, looking for Thousand Feather Crane.
"Suyi, let me introduce you. This is Knife Queen's student Han Sen." Yun Sushang pulled Yun Suyi near and smiled.
"I met him already, down below," Yun Suyi answered.
Yun Suyi and Yun Sushang were sisters. They were the heirs of the Tenth Elder. Yun Suyi had blood, while Yun Sushang was a step-daughter. Yun Sushang was the Seventh Elder's daughter, but he had died. Yun Sushang was taken in by Yun Suyi's father while she was still young.
Thousand Feather Crane was also a student of the Tenth Elder, so he was close with the Yun sisters.
The sisters had a good relationship, as fine as any real siblings. Since they had a little while before White Jade Jing opened again, Yun Suyi had come to talk to Yun Sushang and kill some time.
Han Sen asked Thousand Feather Crane, "Thousand Feather, I'm curious about the Jade Air of the other twelve buildings. Are they stronger?"
Before he could answer, Yun Suyi said, "They're not just stronger. They have spirit. If you're not an Earl at least, you'll die there. Don't even think about going elsewhere. Just stay here and practice."
"So if I become an Earl, I can go to the other twelve buildings?" Han Sen asked.
"You have to understand the knowledge of the White Jade Buildings. Only then can you see the other buildings behind this one," Yun Suyi said.
"Thousand Feather Crane, Yun Sushang, and First Day are the best of the Earls. Can they not understand this knowledge?" Han Sen thought to himself. He knew it was something he shouldn't say out loud.
Yun Suyi knew what Han Sen was thinking, however. She smiled. "Brother Crane and my sister already understand. Many people on the sixth floor already understand, too. But of the twelve buildings, this first one is the most tamed. The Jade Air here is the easiest to refine, so it is best to stay here until you are a Marquise."
Upon hearing this, Han Sen frowned in thought. "If the Jade Air here is considered mild, how scary must the Jade Air be in the other buildings? If I can't break through here, maybe I can go to the other White Jade Buildings. I just don't know what I need to understand about these constructs."
After talking for a while, Yun Sushang suddenly noticed the time. Then, she spoke to Yun Suyi. "The Jade Air is going to erupt. Go back now. We will speak later when this is done."
Yun Suyi nodded and headed for the stairs. Han Sen was still talking to Thousand Feather Crane, so she said, "You should come. When the Jade Air arrives, you will become a jade statue before you have a chance to return to the third floor."
"Brother Han, head on down. We will talk later," Thousand Feather Crane said.
"I'm not going back. I want to practice here," Han Sen said.
Yun Suyi and the others all looked at Han Sen. Yun Suyi found herself both angry and amused. "Even most Earls do not dare come to the seventh floor. Only my sister and Brother Crane, who are both so talented and stronger than the average Earl, dare to practice here. Did you not see the swathe of Earls down on the sixth floor? They don't dare come up. What do you think a Viscount can do here? Do you want to become a statue?"
"Brother Han, you should go downstairs. You have to do this floor-by-floor," Thousand Feather Crane said.
Han Sen laughed and said, "My skills have maxed out! I need the seventh floor's Jade Air to break through. Don't worry;
I can fight against the Jade Air here. I'll be fine."
Yun Suyi started to say something else, but Yun Sushang cut her off. "Suyi, go now. The Jade Air will soon erupt, and it'll be too late for you to leave when it does."
Yun Suyi left the seventh floor and paced quickly down the stairs. She kept looking back, but she did not see Han Sen following after her.
"This guy isn't strong, but he is ambitious. Brother Crane will have to carry him down, again," Yun Suyi thought to herself.
Thousand Feather Crane and Yun Sushang tried to convince Han Sen, but they were not really friends. If Han Sen wanted to stay that much, they weren't going to plead against the idea.
Thousand Feather Crane smiled wryly and shook his head. If Han Sen could not withstand the force, then he would carry him down. He could not allow the Jade Air to turn Han Sen into a statue and kill him.
Han Sen found a spot that was closer to Thousand Feather Crane. First Day looked at Han Sen curiously, and Han Sen shot him a smile. First Day looked shy, and then turned away.
"This First Day Buddha is interesting. He is so young and so strong. He might be as good as Seven Spirit. His mind is still like a kid's, though," Han Sen thought. Then, the jade walls began to emit a Jade Air.

Chapter 1969 Becoming an Earl
The seventh floor's Jade Air flowed out like a liquid. It hung visibly in the air.
Han Sen used Petrify to turn his flesh into stone, so he didn't feel it very much when the Jade Air connected with his body. He used The Story of Genes to absorb the Jade Air.
Thousand Feather Crane, Yun Sushang, and First Day all turned to look at Han Sen. The average Earl couldn't withstand the seventh floor's Jade Air, and Han Sen was just a Viscount. It was likely he would turn into a jade statue. Thousand Feather Crane prepared to carry Han Sen out the moment he looked like he was in trouble.
But the three of them were shocked when Han Sen petrified himself. The Jade Air didn't affect Han Sen's body much, and as they watched, Han Sen began to absorb it. That was surprising.
"What is that geno art? It can allow a Viscount to withstand the Jade Air on the seventh floor?" Yun Sushang was in shock.
Thousand Feather Crane stumbled slightly as he answered. "It looks like some sort of petrifying geno art, but no matter how strong it is, it shouldn't be this effective on a Viscount. That geno art cannot be a simple petrification. It must be a geno art Knife Queen gave him."
The three did not observe Han Sen for long. They were still curious, but they needed to focus on their own practice.
The seventh floor's Jade Air could not harm Han Sen while he was petrified. After he used Petrify, his body had great compatibility with Jade Air, so it was easy to absorb.
The Jade Air rushed into Han Sen's body like water. He cast The Story of Genes in the hopes he would break through with it.
Spell Armor automatically appeared around Han Sen's body and wrapped him up. The armor shone with a weird light, and mysterious symbols appeared across it. It was scary.
The other three saw the movement around Han Sen, and when they looked at him, their shock deepened. "He's going to become an Earl here?"
Han Sen had eaten a lot of grains of Galaxy Sand. He had already been on the precipice of becoming an Earl, but he had lacked a trigger.
The Jade Air would finish what the Galaxy Sand had started. Galaxy Sand was a concentrated xenogeneic gene essence, and it could be absorbed right away.
Jade Air was like ore, though. It had to be worked and refined before absorption.
When ordinary Nobles absorbed Jade Air, most of it would be wasted and released back into the room. Only small amounts of the Jade Air would actually be absorbed and processed by their bodies.
The Galaxy Sand could be used by low-tier Nobles without side-effects, so it was okay for him to have used as much as he had. But receiving too much Jade Air at once could damage a person's body.
Luckily, Han Sen did not want to absorb the Jade Air. He just wanted to use the power of the Jade Air to break through. It did not matter if it was refined or not; he just needed the strength of it.
The Jade Air on the seventh floor was strong enough. Waves battered across the threshold of his body, activating the power Spell possessed. It had managed to kickstart the evolution process of him becoming an Earl.
The mysterious Spell armor began to shift and change constantly. Thousand Feather Crane observed the armor's behavior, but he was unsure what it signified.
When the symbols of Spell became brighter, it was as if the light was coming to life. It came out of the armor, surrounding Han Sen like a group of fairies.
"This is a text spirit. It is like the spirit of our Textless Book. It is a very rare spirit!" Yun Sushang exclaimed, looking at Spell.
"It's rare, but the Rebate don't have a geno art like that. What geno art has he been practicing?" Thousand Feather Crane said with a frown.
"No matter what it is, this guy is not as simple as what meets the eye. It is very interesting." Yun Sushang looked at Han Sen with interest.
First Day looked at Han Sen with curiosity. "Brother Crane, the geno art Han Sen is practicing… How is it when compared to that of the Textless Book?"
Thousand Feather Crane shook his head. "I have not practiced with the Textless Book, and I do not know what Han Sen's geno art is. It is difficult to tell, but the Textless Book is a skill belonging to Sky Palace. It would not be weaker than any other geno art. You have practiced Truth Spell, and that comes from the Textless Book. And it is a spirit that creates text, so you should know more about it than I do."
Yes, First Day. Do you think your spirit is weaker or stronger than his?" Yun Sushang asked First Day.
First Day looked very shy, and he said the Buddha catchphrase. "I don't understand his text, but it feels like it is deeper than my own spirit."
Yun Sushang and Thousand Feather Crane were shocked to hear this. The Textless Book was a skill not every one of the Sky could use. It had many requirements for its practice. So, while Yun Sushang and Thousand Feather Crane were smart, they were still unable to practice with it.
Although only a few could use the Textless Book in its original form, there was a senior inside Sky Palace that had extracted a part out of it that everyone could practice. It was called Truth Spell, and even the ordinary Sky could use it.
While Truth Spell was just a small part of the Textless Book, it was strong enough to be on par with other famous geno arts. First Day was very good with it, and his talent was plain to see. If he felt this way, then it meant Han Sen's geno art had to be very strong.
When Han Sen evolved, Spell's spirit became stronger. While the symbols spun around, a vortex was created. It absorbed the Jade Air ravenously, draining the power into Han Sen's body.
Pang!
A symbol shattered, and the others that were flying around him blew up like a load of firecrackers. They were all broken.
Thousand Feather Crane and the others were shocked. They thought Han Sen had failed, but then, a giant Spell body appeared behind him. It was protecting him.
Pang!
That Spell broke, too. The fragments became a number of smaller Spells, which landed on the armor. Then they disappeared.
Thousand Feather Crane was shocked, and Han Sen didn't know whether he had succeeded or failed. But quickly, an impressive power started to radiate from Han Sen. When the others saw it, they knew for certain that Han Sen had succeeded in becoming an Earl.
"Spell Battle Body has become an Earl."
The voice echoed through Han Sen's mind, filling him with joy. After much hard work, The Story of Genes had been brought up to Earl.

Chapter 1970 The Fourth Stage
Yun Suyi stopped practicing and opened her eyes. The Jade Air was no longer coming from the walls, so she looked around to see if Han Sen was around. He wasn't.
"Why hasn't Brother Crane brought Han Sen down? Are they on the fourth floor, maybe?" Yun Suyi wondered as she made her way up to the fourth floor.
There was no sign of Han Sen on the fourth floor. Yun Suyi frowned and turned back toward the stairs, intending to search the fifth floor next. But Han Sen, Thousand Feather Crane, Yun Sushang, and First Day were coming down from there.
Yun Suyi quickly moved towards them, glaring at Han Sen, "I told you to come down when I left, but you were too stubborn. Great. Now, Brother Crane and First Day have had to waste their time bringing you down. The Jade Air is only released once a week. You'll have to wait another seven days now."
Yun Sushang tugged at Yun Suyi and said, "Suyi, it's not like that."
"What is not like that?" Yun Suyi asked with obvious confusion.
First Day said, "Mister Han leveled up to Earl on the seventh floor. We have come down together, now that the Jade Air has come to an end."
When Yu Suyi heard that, her eyes widened. She looked at Han Sen with utter disbelief. "You really stayed on the seventh floor and became an Earl?"
Han Sen nodded. He wasn't going to hide his power.
Yun Suyi sensed Han Sen's energy. She was at a loss, and while she opened her mouth, she didn't say anything.
It was unheard of for a Viscount to withstand the Jade Air of the seventh floor and become an Earl. It beggared belief.
"Let's go. We can talk more later." Thousand Feather Crane led the way out of the White Jade Building.
White Jade Building would erupt twice in a day, and then it would go dormant for another six days. Han Sen broke through with The Story of Genes on the first day, so he didn't care about anything else. He hadn't discovered the secret of the White Jade Building, but he would fine to wait until the following week.
Han Sen was just happy that he had gotten Spell to Earl class.
When they said goodbye, Yun Sushang stopped Han Sen and said, "Han Sen, Brother Crane and I are going to Xuanyuan Cave in two days. If you have the time, you can come along."
"If you don't oppose my participation, I would like to come," Han Sen said.
They set up a time to meet, and then Thousand Feather Crane gave Han Sen a ride back to his floating island.
"In Sky Palace, it would be ideal to obtain a flying mount. It would be much more convenient for you, even if you cannot fly yourself," Thousand Feather Crane said as he took Han Sen back.
"Where do I find a flying mount? Can I buy one outside Sky Palace?" Han Sen thought that if they would let him bring in a xenogeneic, he could summon Little Star.
Thousand Feather Crane shook his head. "No creature from the outside can enter here, but we have a xenogeneic island to grow them. You can buy a flying mount from there. If it is merely for traveling, even a Baron class will do. It won't cost much, but it would be better if you invested in one that was Viscount."
Han Sen asked for the location of that xenogeneic island, and then Thousand Feather Crane left.
Han Sen returned to his room and summoned Spell, who had just leveled up. He wanted to see how she had changed.
Spell appeared in her womanly form. She flew into Han Sen's hand and became a white sniper rifle.
When Han Sen used his mind, the white sniper changed. It became a white-metal weapon that looked like a rocket launcher.
"D*mn! It has a fourth stage. Each one is better than the last." Han Sen was so happy.
But Han Sen could not test out its power in the stone house, so he put it away. He cast a spirit light and created a spell that had power in it.
"I'll find a place to try the rocket launcher later. What does this spell power do?" Han Sen thought.
After resting for some time, Han Sen planned on going to review the rules of Sky Palace. He didn't want to unwittingly break a rule.
He had no flying mount, so he used his own power to soar. Fortunately, he was Earl class. Spell's power was very strong as a result, and it was enough to carry Han Sen to the floating island that possessed the tablet.
Han Sen read the rules and tried to memorize them.
Wherever he went, knowing the rules was always important to him. Knowing the rules meant he could behave. And when he met new people, he wouldn't be seen as an enemy. Knowing the rules sometimes meant he could receive unexpected help.
There were many rules in Sky Palace. Although Han Sen could remember them all, he still took his time to memorize each one.
He looked around a little, and then, a xenogeneic that looked like a tiger landed in front of Han Sen. Yun Suyi was on its back, and she jumped down before him.
"Suyi, are you here to read the rules?" Han Sen asked her.
Yun Suyi smiled and said, "I was born in Sky Palace, and I have read the rules many times. Still, I get punished. I could recite each one with my eyes closed, so there's no need for me to read this thing."
That means you have come looking for me?" Han Sen looked around. There was no one else there except for him.
Yun Suyi nodded and said, "My sister knows you do not have a flying mount, so I am taking you to buy one. The Yun family is good at growing xenogeneics, and so we have a shop on the xenogeneic island. I can give you a discount."
"Thanks," Han Sen answered.
"Let's go." Yun Suyi seemed to be rather excited.
"Please wait a little while; I haven't finished the rules yet." Han Sen went back to reading the rules scrawled upon the tablet.
Yun Suyi waited, noticing how carefully Han Sen was reading them.
"Is he for real? I am waiting right here, and he's still concentrating entirely on reading the tablet?" Yun Suyi waited for a while, and Han Sen continued to read. She felt depressed.
She was the daughter of the Tenth Elder. Many men wished to get close to her, but Han Sen was ignoring her, and paying attention to stupid rules instead. He was so focused, it was like he was reading through a powerful geno art.
If Yun Sushang hadn't asked her to be nice, Yun Suyi would have left already.
A while later, Han Sen finished reading. Then, Yun Suyi jumped atop the flying tiger. She smiled at Han Sen. "I am taking you to the xenogeneic island now. You should follow!"
After that, Yun Suyi patted the tiger. Then, the tiger spread its wings and flew into the clouds. It was very fast.
"I waited so long for you, so now you can suffer a little," Yun Suyi thought with a grin. She'd purposefully left before Han Sen could get on the mount.

Chapter 1971 Jade Crane
Yun Suyi let the flying tiger soar at full speed. It raced into the clouds in less than a second. When she turned around, no one was behind her.
"Hmph! You made me wait so long; you deserve it!" Yun Suyi did not allow her tiger to slow down. She flew straight to the xenogeneic island.
Yun Suyi planned to reach the xenogeneic island and wait for Han Sen there; she was curious to see how long it would take for him to get there.
Her jade wing tiger was a Marquise class xenogeneic. It was one of the fastest Marquise rank creatures, so it wasn't surprising that she had lost Han Sen so easily.
Yun Suyi felt cocky, but when the other students of Sky Palace flew past, they all looked at Yun Suyi strangely.
"I know I'm pretty, but you don't have to stare like that," Yun Suyi thought.
After a while, though, she felt that something must be amiss. She knew many of the people she was passing, and although she rarely went to the xenogeneic island, she never attracted this much attention on her way there.
"Did something happen to my appearance?" Yun Suyi touched her cheek and looked at her clothes. There was nothing wrong with her.
She flew for a while longer, and people were still looking at her. She frowned and pulled out a mirror to look at herself.
"Strange. There's nothing wrong with me; everything is as it should be. I'm just as pretty—ARGH!" As Yun Suyi moved the mirror to check her face from different angles, a mysterious shadow suddenly appeared in the mirror. A smiling person was sitting behind. It was Han Sen.
"When did you get here?" Yun Suyi turned back to take a look. Han Sen was sitting casually behind her on the tiger, and it was now no wonder why people had been looking at her.
Those people were not really watching her, though. They were looking at Han Sen.
"When you took the tiger into the sky, I was already sitting atop it. Aren't you supposed to be taking me to the xenogeneic island? Is there something wrong with me being here? Have I misunderstood your intent?" Han Sen looked at her with a smile.
"Nothing's wrong." Yun Suyi blushed, refusing to look at Han Sen.
It weirded her out that Han Sen had managed to catch up.
Not even Thousand Feather Crane or Yun Sushang could match the Jade Wing Tiger's speed. Han Sen had just become an Earl, so there was no way he could move that fast.
In truth, Han Sen did not have that speed, but he did have his rabbit shoes. They were faster than the Jade Wing Tiger, even if they lacked the ability of flight. When Jade Wing Tiger took off, Han Sen used the rabbit shoes to leap onto the tiger's back. He then hid his presence, so Yun Suyi wouldn't notice him.
Yun Suyi was confused, not understanding what had happened.
Jade Wing Tiger was quite fast, and they arrived at the xenogeneic island shortly after.
The xenogeneic island was comprised of many gardens, with each one containing a multitude of xenogeneic creatures. They didn't look bloodthirsty, so it was like they were all tamed. Fitting with the theme of Sky Palace, most of them were of the flying variety.
Yun Suyi took Han Sen to her garden, and someone there welcomed them. Yun Suyi told them to get back to work, then brought Han Sen into the garden alone.
"What class of xenogeneic mount do you want? Available mounts run from Baron class all the way up to Marquise. They are already tamed, so they listen to people." She was actually asking Han Sen how much he was willing to cough up for a xenogeneic.
Han Sen thought and said, "The cheaper the better. Anything to substitute for walking."
Han Sen was still new in the geno universe. There were many creatures in the sanctuary that had yet to evolve. Han Sen did not need to waste his resources.
Han Sen was going to kill xenogeneics himself soon, anyway, and there was always the chance he could nab a beast soul mount. Those mounts would be far better than a tamed xenogeneic.
Yun Suyi smiled and said, "Don't worry, my sister said I can give you the lowest possible price. You won't get prices like this anywhere else."
Han Sen shook his head. "I just want one that can help me fly. I don't need one that is strong."
When Yun Suyi saw that Han Sen wasn't kidding, she thought for a minute. "The cheapest flying mount is a xenogeneic called a Jade Night Crane. They are in every shop, but ours are different. You saw Brother Crane's Jade Night Crane, yes? Normally, they are Baron and hard to level up. But that one was Earl, and it came from us."
"Sure. Give me one of those, then." Han Sen was not picky. It was just a riding mount, so it wouldn't be anything too special regardless of how much he paid.
You should go and pick one yourself. We have thousands of them. They are all the same price, and they are all just as good." Yun Suyi took Han Sen to the area for the Jade Night Cranes.
Han Sen was remarkably surprised when he saw the birds swarming in flocks that looked like clouds. Sky Palace was a big faction; there weren't many places where you could see this many tamed xenogeneics in one place.
Taming a xenogeneic was far harder than killing one. It would be easier to kill an Earl or Marquise xenogeneic than to tame a Baron xenogeneic. It was amazing that the Sky had successfully done so this many times.
"Where did these xenogeneics come from?" Han Sen asked, looking at all the Jade Night Cranes.
"Some were caught, some were raised. We will take you to Xuanyuan Cave. There is an Earl there that you can tame. If you can catch it alive, it will fetch a far loftier price than selling the xenogeneic gene material," Yun Suyi said.
Han Sen nodded. He used his Dongxuan Aura to scan the Jade Night Cranes. If she was going to let him choose, then he might as well make the best choice that he could. He was going to pick the one with the brightest life force.
Han Sen scanned them, and he found one among them that appeared to be extra strong. When he saw it, the creature was just lying down in the grass. It didn't appear to be as active as the others.
Yun Suyi, seeing Han Sen look at that Jade Night Crane, said, "That one is a Viscount. It was a Baron xenogeneic that was bought by a Viscount. It was later raised to become a Viscount itself, but after a grueling fight, its legs were cut off and its wings were damaged. It recovered from its wounds, but it is still disabled. Now, its flying speed is only Baron class. Also, it still doesn't have legs…"
Yun Suyi stopped talking, but it was obvious what had happened.

Chapter 1972 Xuanyuan Cave
"Can it fly while carrying heavy items?" Han Sen asked, examining the bird.
"Yes; it is much stronger than Baron class Jade Night Cranes, but it has no legs and its wings are damaged," Yun Suyi repeated. "It can't fly any faster than an average Baron. And its fighting abilities cannot compare with a Viscount mount."
"I'll take him." Han Sen did not plan on letting the mount do any fighting, so it'd be suitable for simple travel.
A damaged Jade Night Crane was not expensive, and it was just a little more pricey than basic xenogeneic gene material. Yun Suyi gave Han Sen a very good deal.
The Jade Night Crane was very tame, and Han Sen was quickly able to learn how to command it. He could control it in flight easily.
Because it had no legs, it always landed on its belly. And because the wings were partially disabled, it never could fly completely straight. Its speed left much to be desired, as well.
Fortunately, Han Sen did not have high expectations. So, after he made the purchase, he rode the crane back to his island.
Jade Night Crane was flying again, and it looked excited to be doing so. It kept squawking, and with amusing dedication, it diligently took Han Sen to his desired destination.
"Poor thing. It got hurt because of its master, and then it was abandoned. And now he is okay and can obey commands. Many creatures with high intelligence can't do that." Han Sen sighed.
Back on his island, Han Sen let the crane land. But before it touched down, Han Sen jumped off.
The crane's belly hit the ground as it frantically flapped its wings. The creature had tried to keep itself level when it landed, but the attempt didn't go very well.
Han Sen gave it some food and let it stay on the stone. Then, Han Sen returned to the house. Before he went to Xuanyuan Cave, he wanted to come to grips with his powers. He took stock of his possessions.
Earl class Spell geno armament. Duke beast soul rabbit shoes. Earl beast soul Red Mist Mink Glove, and King weapon Ghost Teeth Knife.
With Ghost Teeth Knife there, his Teeth Knife skills would still be the best to use. Teeth Knife wouldn't have any breakthroughs, though, so he planned to focus on a different geno art.
Using the energy flow from the Jade Turtle Spell, the feelings of Sky Palace, and some parts of Coin, he planned to make up a brand new geno art.
"My Coin focuses on powers that suppress. Why don't I just modify Coin and make it better? But I can only use Coin, or a geno art that looks like Coin, when I'm in my Dollar identity. Otherwise, people might take notice. So, if I can't make something too similar to Coin, what kind of geno art should I make?" Han Sen thought about it, and he soon came up with an idea.
Jade Turtle Spell focused on suppressing one's speed. Once you got hit with it, you could not fly. Han Sen wanted to use that aspect as a focus for his new geno art creation. He wanted to merge elements of Sky Palace and Coin. As for modifying Coin, that was something he could do later.
Han Sen kept testing his ideas in the room and learned a lot. Combining them wasn't proving too difficult. He created his new geno art through repeated testing.
After pulling an all-nighter, he formulated a prototype of his new geno art. It was something he had no difficulty casting. All he had to do was improve the minor details of its design.
"Let's call this geno art Turtle," Han Sen decided.
Because he could not find a target to use it on, Han Sen didn't know exactly how effective Turtle would be.
Han Sen took a break to rest, and when it was daytime, he walked out the door. The legless crane was resting beneath a tree. Han Sen fed it again, then rode it to where he was supposed to meet with Thousand Feather Crane.
Outside of Xuanyuan Cave, Han Sen saw Thousand Feather Crane, First Day, and the Yun sisters.
Yun Sushang immediately apologized for her sister's presence. "Suyi wants to follow us in our exploration. I will be in charge of her safety, so if something happens, do not worry. Do whatever you need to."
Since she had said that, no one objected. They left their mounts outside and headed into Xuanyuan Cave.
Xuanyuan Island looked like a small volcano. The volcano's entrance led them into a gigantic volcano cave world. The cave led off in a number of different directions, and there were swathes of xenogeneics inside.
Xuanyuan Cave xenogeneics were very special. The most special ones among them were called Xuan Jade Spirits. Xuan Jade Spirits could travel through walls and appear in any comer they chose. They were difficult to avoid.
So, once people entered the cave system, they had to be careful. They could be attacked by Xuan Jade Spirits at any time.
At any moment, a mouth or claw could come shooting out of the rock.
"Brother Han, this is your first time in Xuanyuan Cave. Be careful. Xuan Jade Spirits can appear without any warning.
We might not be able to help you in time, if they get you," Yun Sushang said.
Han Sen nodded, and he opened his Dongxuan Aura. He kept everything envisioned in his head. Any movement within a radius of ten meters would not escape his notice.
They walked a mile into the caves without spotting a single xenogeneic, but Han Sen did not let his guard down. He kept the Dongxuan Aura running the entire time.
Suddenly, though, Han Sen saw a black jade hand come out from the ground. It tried to grab Yun Suyi by her legs. The Xuan Jade Spirit's nails were black like daggers. If it got hold of Yun Suyi, it could rip her legs off without much trouble.
Because they hadn't met Xuan Jade Spirits for a long time, Yun Suyi had dropped her guard. She was only a Viscount, as well. She was not strong enough to react with the immediacy required.
Han Sen summoned Spell in front of him and fired her guns. After the popping noise of gunfire, two of the Xuan Jade's claws were broken by the bullets.
Where the bullets hit, symbols were left behind.
The Xuan Jade jerked its injured hands away and retreated into the stone. It left no sign of its passing. The surface of the stone was perfect, as if the creature had never been there in the first place.
Han Sen noticed he was able to feel where the Xuan Jade hands would come from. There was thick stone and rock all about, but he felt as if he received a signal from beyond it. Han Sen could feel exactly where they were.
"Is this a power that Spell possesses?" Han Sen was shocked. When Spell hit something, it was like she was placing a tracker. The tracker didn't deal damage, but it was very useful.

Chapter 1973 Killing Ghost Claw Beas
"Suyi, say thank you to Han Sen." Yun Sushang nudged Yun Suyi with a hand.
Yun Suyi was still a bit rattled, but she stepped forward and said to Han Sen, "Thank you for saving me."
"It's okay. Even if I hadn't struck, it couldn't have hurt you. I just wanted to find out the power of the Xuan Jade Spirit." Han Sen smiled. He wasn't suggesting that Suyi was strong, but acknowledging that Sushang was right beside her.
There was no way the creature would have been permitted to hurt her.
But Sushang was surprised that Han Sen had reacted before she had. Han Sen had just become an Earl, and if his reaction speeds were superior to theirs already, that was most certainly not normal.
Yun Suyi looked at Spell with curiosity. "Han Sen, is that your geno armament? It is special. I have never seen one like that before."
Thousand Feather Crane was just as curious. Prior to this, they had only seen Spell's armor mode. Her second mode looked like a person, and this was something they hadn't seen before.
Han Sen smiled, but he did not answer the question. He asked, "That Xuan Jade Spirit was not strong. Aside from being able to travel through stone, what else can they do?"
Thousand Feather Crane said, "That one was an Earl class Ghost Claw Beast. They aren't the strongest of Earls, but they are very fast. They can appear through the rock, so they are very dangerous if you are careless. Even cutting off the creature's claws won't kill it. They can regenerate. It's very annoying. If you want to kill it for good, you need to damage the stone it resides in, once it has revealed itself with the claws."
Yun Sushang said, "Ghost Claw Beasts are too fast. Most of the time, we can't detect their presence until it is too late. And if they miss or break their claws, they'll run away. Second chances are rare. So, when you want to kill one, you need two Earls. One can cut the claws while the other pummels the body inside the stone."
After that, Yun Sushang struck a rock with her knuckles and said, "The Xuanyuan rock is very hard. With our powers, we can only cut through an inch of the stone at a time. The Ghost Claw Beasts raise their claws around one foot out of the rock. Then, they attack."
Thank you for teaching me," Han Sen said gratefully.
They kept walking, and Han Sen felt as if the Ghost Claw Beasts were right next to them. One was getting ready to attack again.
It was the same Ghost Claw Beast, and it wanted revenge. It kept following them, ready to perform a Ghost Claw Slash upon them. But it had been hurt by Spell once already, so it was exercising great caution. It didn't come too close yet, and it watched and waited for an opportunity from beneath the stone.
"Be careful; there are xenogeneics up ahead," Thousand Feather Crane told them. He was up front.
Han Sen looked forward, and he saw a blurry shadow. Without Thousand Feather Crane's warning, he would not have known that it was a xenogeneic.
The group soon got close enough to see it clearly, however. It was a bug that was native to the cave, and it looked like a centipede. Its shell was of a bluish hue, and there was a face emblazed upon its back. It looked creepy.
"Earl class Face Centipede. Be careful. Face Centipedes appear in a group, mostly. They don't travel alone." Yun Suyi explained this for Han Sen's benefit, as the others there were no strangers to the cave. Face Centipedes were quite common, and the Sky were familiar with how they behaved.
The Face Centipede soon saw Han Sen, and it came scurrying over. It let out a wretched sound that drew the attention and ire of more in the vicinity.
"Get ready to fight!" Thousand Feather Crane shouted and drew his sword.
Yun Sushang and Yun Suyi wielded swords, as well. First Day didn't draw a weapon, though; his hands gleamed with white light. He slapped the ground, leaving white marks on the dirt. His spirit covered an area that was three meters wide and brightened up the entire place.
First Day slapped the ground another five times, and then he said something. Then, six spirits rose toward the feet of Han Sen and the others. Power entered their bodies.
"What a strong spirit! It increases power and speed by a lot." Han Sen was in shock. He looked at First Day, and he was really surprised that the shy Buddha could pull something like this off.
Seeing Han Sen look at him, the Buddha man awkwardly glanced away. He said, "I was sent here to study when I was young. I practiced the Truth Spell of Sky Palace."
Very nice," Han Sen said. Ever since Han Sen had been forced to leave Disloyal Knight behind, he hadn't seen much in the way of buffs and boons.
Yun Sushang and Thousand Feather Crane stood inside the radius of the spell to fight with the Face Centipedes.
Their sword airs looked like clouds, and they moved like silk in the sky. It was very light and strange.
The Face Centipedes were getting killed by the silk sword air. Their shells cracked under the force, and a few died immediately on contact.
The path was very narrow, and since Yun Sushang and Thousand Feather Crane had a handle on the situation, Han Sen didn't bother helping.
Yun Suyi wanted to fight, but she couldn't. She started to say something to Han Sen, and so she turned around. But she looked at Spell, who was standing next to Han Sen, Spell was transforming her pistols into a sniper rifle. The long weapon dropped into Spell's hands, and she pointed it toward Yun Suyi and pulled the trigger.
Yun Suyi was frozen. Spell had moved too quickly for her to react. She saw a shining bullet fly out of Spell's rifle and whiz right past her face.
Pang!
The bullet hit the stone wall behind her, and the cracking sound hurt her ears.
Yun Suyi turned around to take a look. A hand bearing jade claws hovered behind her, inches from her neck. It was frozen in place.
There was a bullet hole in the stone wall, and black blood seeped out of it.
"Xenogeneic Earl hunted. Jade Ghost Claw Beast: xenogeneic gene found."
An announcement played in Han Sen's head, but it was a shame he did not receive a beast soul.
"Thank you." Yun Suyi looked at Han Sen with a complex expression.
This was the second time Han Sen had saved her, and this time, he had managed to one-hit-kill a Ghost Claw Beast by himself. Such reaction speed and powers were difficult to find amongst Earls.

Chapter 1974 Spell Becomes Strong
Han Sen was surprised. He was not surprised that Spell could kill the Ghost Claw Beast, but that her pistols could turn into a sniper rifle. He knew that Spell herself could transform, but he hadn't known she could change her weapons.
"So, that means Spell can use any type of weapon? It might not have to be a weapon all the time, either," Han Sen thought.
He had simply commanded Spell to slay the Ghost Claw Beast, and Spell had used her own judgment to select the sniper. It had greater power and bullet penetration.
She now had three different weapons. There were the pistols, for short-range quickfire. The power was mild, but she could take a lot of shots in little time.
The sniper had the longest range of attack, and its damage was quite devastating. It could penetrate through materials, but bullets took a long time to regenerate.
The rocket launcher did not have the range of the sniper rifle, but it dealt AOE damage across a wide area. This took even longer to regenerate a round, though.
The three of them had different functions and benefits. It was difficult to determine if one was outright better than the another. Depending on the situation, any of the weapons might prove more beneficial than the others. That was Spell's greatest strength. She could adapt to almost any scenario.
Not long after Han Sen killed the Ghost Claw Beast, Yun Sushang and Thousand Feather Crane finished off the five Face Centipedes.
Han Sen went ahead and started digging into the stone. There was a monkey-looking jade monster inside, with its head blown wide open. It was the Ghost Claw Beast.
When Yun Suyi saw that Spell had targeted the creature's forehead, the sight shocked her. She hadn't expected Spell to possess that level of accuracy, allowing her to take aim at the felon's head while it was still inside a wall.
They dug up the xenogeneic genes and kept going. The Ghost Claw Beast's xenogeneic gene was a black skull. A piece of shell was the xenogeneic gene of the Face Centipedes.
"We have only just entered Xuanyuan Cave, and already we have received rewards like this. We are quite lucky. We could go back now if we wanted to." Yun Sushang smiled.
Finding a xenogeneic during the next part of their trip wasn't so easy. They walked for another two hours and found nothing.
"Han Sen, your geno armament is amazing. It looks like a person, and it can change weapons. What is her name?" Yun Suyi asked Han Sen.
"Spell," Han Sen said.
"Good name." Maybe it was because Han Sen had saved her twice, but she was being much nicer to him now. She seemed quite keen on chatting with him.
"Ssshhh," Thousand Feather Crane hushed them. Everyone went quiet. Thousand Feather Crane put his ear next to the wall, which made the others catch their breath. If there was a Xuan Jade Spirit residing right there, Thousand Feather Crane was a dead man.
Fortunately, that did not happen. He had been confident that no creatures lurked within the wall, and he was correct. After a while, he raised his head again and said with a look of importance, "I heard a Xuanyuan Dragon."
Hearing that name, everyone's faces changed. Yun Sushang frowned. "How far? Is it coming for us?"
"I think it is headed our way." Thousand Feather Crane looked serious.
"If it is us five versus a Xuanyuan Dragon, we won't win. Let's go back," First Day said.
"Yeah." Thousand Feather Crane and Yun Sushang agreed.
Han Sen did not know what this new threat was, but he was fine with the idea of leaving, if that was the general consensus.
When they started to retreat, First Day said, "Xuanyuan Dragons are the strongest xenogeneics to be found in Xuanyuan Cave. Those things are born Marquise. We cannot fight them."
Han Sen nodded, then he glanced down. Spell fired her pistols at Han Sen's feet.
A Ghost Claw had just come out of there, grabbing toward Han Sen's feet. The bullets pierced through the enemy, prompting it to return to the rock.
But there were more and more of the things emerging all around them. They were all thrust into danger.
Yun Sushang wielded her sword quickly to protect Yun Suyi. Thousand Feather Crane and First Day used their powers to stop the claws that kept coming out.
But the creatures seemed to be countless. Han Sen and the others were Earls, but Yun Suyi was a mere Viscount. She wouldn't be able to protect herself. Yun Sushang, Thousand Feather Crane, and First Day diligently did their best to protect her.
"This isn't right! Why are there so many Ghost Claws, all of a sudden?" Yun Sushang said as she fought back the Ghost Claw Beasts.
The Ghost Claw Beasts must know that the Xuanyuan Dragon is coming. They want to stop us from leaving," Thousand Feather Crane said.
First Day said, "Not bad. These guys are just here to hinder and annoy us. We cannot get close enough to the walls to attack them, though. Slashing their claws off won't work, as they can quickly generate replacements."
Pang! Spell used her sniper rifle to attack. The bullet penetrated the rock, and the hole sent blood squirting out everywhere.
"You guys protect Suyi. Draw them out, and I will have Spell kill them," Han Sen said as he ran.
Spell had used her pistol to fire at many claws earlier, leaving spells attached to them. Now, that made them easier to detect. When they rose to the surface of the rock, Spell would shoot them before they could extend their claws fully.
The sniper rifle's piercing power was wickedly strong, but it still took some time to generate each new bullet. One second passed between each shot, which made it difficult to keep up with the onslaught of creatures.
Even so, watching her work was pretty awesome.
Thousand Feather Crane protected Suyi as they ran. Spell fired a shot every second. With each squeeze of the trigger, a Ghost Claw Beast died.
"Xenogeneic Earl hunted. Jade Ghost Claw Beast: xenogeneic gene found. Obtained Jade Ghost Claw Beast beast soul."
When Spell killed her eighth Ghost Claw Beast, Han Sen finally heard the announcement he'd been hoping for. He didn't have time to check out the beast soul right now, though. And neither could he dig up the bodies residing in the stone. They were all busy trying to run outside.
Yun Sushang and Thousand Feather Crane looked behind them, and they saw Spell shooting the Ghost Claw Beasts.
She dropped each one with a single shot before their claws were even revealed. They had no clue how such a thing was possible.
But they did not have time to ponder that. Spell killed many Ghost Claw Beasts along the way, but there were still too many of them. The group was not escaping quickly.
"The Xuanyuan Dragon is here!" Thousand Feather Crane screamed, his face going pale.
As his scream echoed off the walls, a strange noise came from deeper in the cave. A black shadow stretched toward them, filling the air with the smell of blood.

The creature's scales were as black as ink. Its head had no horns, but the ears were fixed with black wings. Its belly had talons, like those of an eagle. It was coming his way, and black smoke billowed around it. It looked very creepy.
The Xuanyuan Dragon was too fast, and there were still the Ghost Claw Beasts to fend off. Even if the Ghost Claw Beasts hadn't been there, Han Sen's group still wouldn't have been able to outrun the dragon.
In a second, the Xuanyuan Dragon was a mere twenty meters away from them. It opened its maw and fired a plume of black smoke in their direction. The smoke blackened the passage as it came toward them.
"The Xuanyuan Dragon's breath is toxic. Do not breathe it in!" Thousand Feather Crane shouted, and then a cloud exploded from his body. The eye on his forehead opened up and shone. The shining light made him stronger.
"The sky and the clouds are invincible! The sword can kill the sky!" Thousand Feather Crane shouted. A white sword air surrounded his ancient sword, and he swung it forward.
The white sword air sliced open the black toxic smoke. The sword air continued on until it struck the dragon's head. Then, it was gone.
"You guys leave now." Thousand Feather Crane clutched his sword tight and ran for the dragon. His body was emitting clouds, and he flew forward like a fairy.
"Take Suyi." Yun Sushang pushed Yun Suyi to First Day, then the eye on her forehead opened. A new sword air surrounded her ancient sword as well, and she went to fight beside Thousand Feather Crane.
They lifted their swords and attacked together, breaking the Xuanyuan Dragon's breath. They stopped the advance of the Xuanyuan Dragon and fought it hard. The dragon could not do anything.
"So this is the power of the Sky! When their third eyes are opened, they are far stronger." Han Sen watched in awe.
Thousand Feather Crane and Yun Sushang's power could go up against a Marquise creature, and it seemed likely that they could actually kill one.
But the Xuanyuan Dragon was no ordinary Marquise. Its scales were incredibly strong, and its power was just as impressive. Thousand Feather Crane and Yun Sushang broke through the breath, but they could not break the scales.
The snow white sword air swung down across the black scales, but it could only leave behind a white scratch mark.
Han Sen let Spell fire a few bullets at the Xuanyuan Dragon, but when the bullets hit the target, they shattered into dust.
"So strong!" Han Sen shouted in his heart.
"Mister Han, please take Suyi and leave this place," First Day said, as he proceeded to cast Truth Spell. The spells landed on the ground of the area, then surged forward to land on Yun Sushang and Thousand Feather Crane. It helped buff their power and speed.
Some of his spells hit the Xuanyuan Dragon, but those appeared to be futile.
Three elites were now in battle against the Xuanyuan Dragon, but that only seemed to make it angrier. A black light grew in the center of its black. The black light became dragon wings, and they gave it speed.
The Xuanyuan Dragon flapped its wings, and its ten-meter-long body performed a loop in the air.
Katcha!
Yun Sushang could not dodge it. The dragon bit down on her sword, and then, the sword broke.
At the same time, the tail of the dragon was swinging towards First Day. First Day's body was glowing with white light. Truth Spell gave him a bubble shield, but the tail obliterated it with a single strike. It sent his body flying against the cavern walls like a meteor. He screamed as it body slammed into the wall and cracked it, then he coughed up blood.
"Oh no! It is a mutant xenogeneic. It has reinforced scales and a faster flying speed." Thousand Feather Crane moved like a cloud. He picked up Yun Sushang, waved a sword air, and broke the black smoke the dragon was exhaling.
"Spell, protect her!" Han Sen told Spell, then pulled out Ghost Teeth Knife. The rabbit shoes appeared on his feet, and he gripped his knife with the Red Mink Gloves.
Han Sen moved like a shadow, moving right behind the Xuanyuan Dragon. Using Tusk, he swung at the back of the Xuanyuan Dragon's neck.
His attack only produced a dong noise. Not even the Ghost Teeth Knife's Teeth power could break through the Xuanyuan Dragon's scales. It could only leave a scratch mark on the scales. And although his knife possessed Teeth power and emitted a dangerous purple smoke, it still seemed useless.
That hard?" Han Sen was shocked.
"Don't fight it. Run! It is a mutant xenogeneic, and its body far exceeds its actual level." Thousand Feather Crane slashed to draw the Xuanyuan Dragon's attention while he shouted.
But the Xuanyuan Dragon was too fast. It flapped its wings and became a black horse directly in front of Thousand Feather Crane. Thousand Feather Crane's sword air collided with the horse, and the sword air shattered. Still, he could not hurt it.
Seeing that the black horse was about to grab Thousand Feather Crane, he shouted. He held Yun Sushang tighter and took off in flight. He moved so fast that it looked like he teleported away from the attack.
But Thousand Feather Crane's face turned pale. His hands trembled as he gave Yun Sushang to Yun Suyi. "Sushang and Suyi, you guys leave with First Day. Han Sen and I have got this."
Roar! The Xuanyuan Dragon's attack had missed. It turned around and went after First Day, who had just stood up from the rubble.
First Day gritted his teeth. His legs shone, like he was stepping on a lotus. And he cast a spell, which left a glowing symbol behind with every step he took. Every symbol caused him to accelerate.
But he still could not dodge the Xuanyuan Dragon's attacks, and the talons were in front of him.
First Day held out his palm, and a True Light came out of it to counter the talon. The gold light and the black light collided against each other. First Day was sent flying, though, all the way back into the stone. The True Light was broken.
The dragon was cruel, and it went for First Day once again. Thousand Feather Crane's Sky eye shone. He was bleeding, but he summoned a cloud air. The sword air became a white dragon, and it roared. It went for Xuanyuan Dragon.
A black dragon and a white dragon surged toward each other. Then the Xuanyuan Dragon flapped its wings to become a black horse and avoid the engagement. It was going for Yun Sushang and Yun Suyi.
"Careful, sister!" Thousand Feather Crane's face went grey. This strike had cost all his power, and there was nothing he could do to save them.
Yun Sushang knew that they weren't fast enough to dodge the attack. She summoned an ancient sword and her Sky eye shone. She slashed a sword air up at the dragon.
Han Sen was currently sprinting, and the rabbit shoes gave him the speed of a dragon. He went behind the dragon and slashed it on the side.
Dong!
Two noises sounded at the same time. Yun Sushang heaved blood as she was sent careening away. Han Sen slashed the dragon's stomach again. He left a mark, but he didn't see flesh.

Chapter 1976 Slap Your Turtle, Son
The Xuanyuan Dragon turned to Han Sen and breathed out smoke. Han Sen fell back and swung the Ghost Teeth Knife, breaking the black smoke.
Xuanyuan Dragon spun around and put its attention back on Yun Sushang. Thousand Feather Crane was coming, but he was not as fast as the dragon.
First Day cast True Light, but his attack didn't reach the dragon. He screamed, "He's too fast!"
What First Day said gave Han Sen inspiration. He had just created Turtle, and he had almost forgotten that it specialized in bringing down a creature's speed.
Xuanyuan Dragon was almost in front of Yun Sushang, and Han Sen's legs sent him leaping forward at incredible speed. He gathered up power in his hand and brought a slap towards the black horse.
The rabbit shoes' speed was equal to that of the dragon. And in no time at all, a jade white palm came pressing against the dragon's head.
Thousand Feather Crane and the others did not think Han Sen's palm would achieve much. They knew Han Sen was wielding a King class knife, and they knew he had practiced Teeth Knife; if those skills could not damage the dragon, what could a palm do?
Thousand Feather Crane and First Day were out of range, and Spell kept firing her pistols ineffectually at the dragon. Yun Sushang obviously thought that she was about to die, so she pushed Yun Suyi away. Then, her body exploded with a cloud. She was going to fight the dragon with everything she had remaining.
Pang!
Han Sen slapped the Xuanyuan Dragon's head. Then, the horse-looking dragon fell out of the air. It was like Han Sen had knocked him down to the floor.
Thousand Feather Crane and the others were all in shock. They looked at the Xuanyuan Dragon, that was now lying on the ground. And there, were Han Sen had delivered his strike, was the image of Turtle Spell.
The Xuanyuan Dragon slammed into the ground and roared in rage. It flapped its wings as it tried to get back into the air, and that was what surprised Yun Sushang the most.
No matter how much it flapped its wings, the Xuanyuan Dragon could not get airborne again. It was like a duck, attempting to take off. Ultimately, despite all its frantic flapping, it couldn't get off the ground.
Yun Sushang's mouth dropped wide open as she stared at the dragon. This was too powerful, and they were all gobsmacked.
"What are you gawking at? Run!" Han Sen yelled at them, snapping them out of their daze.
Yun Sushang pulled Yun Suyi away. First Day followed from behind, casting True Spell on the dragon. Thousand Feather Crane was attacking, too.
But they were all drained by now, and their attacks lacked the vigor they'd possessed earlier.
The dragon was really angry at Han Sen. It completely ignored First Day and Thousand Feather Crane's attacks. It tried coming for Han Sen. It did not fly to him, and instead it wriggled and crawled. It moved forward steadily, if much more slowly.
Han Sen, seeing the Xuanyuan Dragon's speed, became very happy. With how slowly the dragon was now moving, and there was no need for Han Sen to feel threatened.
There was another pang noise as the Xuanyuan Dragon broke Thousand Feather Crane's sword air and First Day's True Spell. It continued coming for Han Sen, venting smoke from its mouth.
Han Sen moved. He dodged the thickest section of the smoke. He slashed with his knife and cut through the smoke. Then, he moved to the dragon's side and slapped the dragon's face.
Another Turtle Spell manifested on the dragon's face, dropping its speed yet again.
Han Sen moved like a shadow. He put away his Ghost Teeth Knife, opened his hands, and repeatedly slapped the dragon in the face.
The Xuanyuan Dragon was so slow. It couldn't catch up with Han Sen and his rabbit shoes, so there was nothing to keep Han Sen from continuing to b*tchslap it in the face. Images of the Turtle Spell covered its face.
Thousand Feather Crane and First Day watched Han Sen beating on the creature. The fleeing sisters stopped running. Their mouths opened wide, unable to quite fathom what they were seeing.
The Xuanyuan Dragon was acting as if it was stupid. It stood where it was, allowing Han Sen to slap it non-stop. It was getting slower and slower, and the scene played out as if it was in slow-motion.
Han Sen felt very good hitting it, and as he did so, he thought to himself, "Slap your turtle, son! Fly! Slap your turtle, son! Run!"
First Day and the others could guess that Han Sen's slapping was some sort of geno art that slowed down the speed of an opponent. First Day had a geno art like that, but it hadn't worked on the Xuanyuan Dragon when he tried it.
They were both Earls, yet Han Sen's geno art was far more effective on the Xuanyuan Dragon. It confused First Day.
Han Sen did not think his Turtle would be that great. It could stop a foe from flying, and it could slow an enemy down. Surprisingly, it worked on a dragon that was a Marquise and a mutant.
But the strangeness soon wore off. Turtle came from the Jade Turtle Spell. The Jade Turtle was created from the remains of an old deified turtle shell. The power was deified. Han Sen also included his experience under the suppression of the deified Sky Palace leader, then threw in Coin for good measure. With Han Sen's current power, Turtle might not have been able to subdue a King class enemy, but it worked just fine on Marquises or Dukes.
And Turtle could stack. Han Sen continued to slap the Xuanyuan Dragon, and in the end, the dragon was as slow as a snail. It was like a slow-motion scene on TV.
The Xuanyuan Dragon was so angry that its eyes almost popped from their sockets. Its gaze was burning with hatred. If stares could kill, it would have murdered Han Sen a long time ago.
The dragon might only have the speed of a turtle now, but its power had not been affected. It could still exhale toxic air, but it could not move and it could not hit the nimble Han Seen with the smoke.
Han Sen kept using Teeth Knife to slash at the dragon's neck. He struck the beast hundreds of times, and knifelights were everywhere. Not long after, the dragon's neck started to bleed. The blood gleamed visibly in the knifelight.
Thousand Feather Crane and the others could tell the dragon was going to perish, so they didn't help out. They didn't want to steal the kill. They did, however, commit to clearing the Ghost Claw Beasts that were still nearby.
Yun Suyi saw the knifelight reflecting off the blood and stared, deep in thought.
Patong!
The screams of the Xuanyuan Dragon suddenly cut off as Ghost Teeth Knife severed the dragon's head.
"Xenogeneic Marquise mutant hunted. Xuanyuan Dragon: xenogeneic gene found. Obtained mutant Xuanyuan Dragon beast soul."
