Chapter 94 Bloodline Evolution
A flowing wind!
The most unique branch of artistic conception in this Thousand Winds Secret Manual has always been remarkably low-key and almost invisible after being integrated into the secret techniques.
Unlike the other artistic conceptions, it doesn't offer any assistance in combat.
"Therefore, this essence represents—the movement of the wind."
Chen Yuan carefully studied the description of the first level of the secret technique and gradually understood the profound meaning behind the system placing this essence in the first level.
Besides the fact that he had already grasped the relevant artistic conception, which lowered the entry threshold, it is also inseparable from the importance of this essence.
Because this is the only essence related to time.
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan suddenly recalled which sword technique this essence corresponded to in the original Mad Storm Manual.
"Set number 72!"
Chen Yuan's eyes were piercing: "The original 'Raging Storm' started with understanding its simple essence, leaving the important parts for later."
"But the system does the opposite, placing the most difficult essence at the beginning, and I have already grasped the related meaning of this essence—"
"This is what we call individualized instruction, a customized approach."
"Apart from me, anyone else who tries to cultivate this 'Raging Storm' would probably not even be able to get to the basics, even without considering the incompatibility of the techniques."
After understanding the system's profound meaning, Chen Yuan included the "Raging Storm" manual in his daily study routine.
Ten days later.
Chen Yuan received a system notification, left the virtual universe, and his body leaped out of the nutrient pod.
Opening the panel, Chen Yuan first glanced at Kuang Lan's cultivation progress, then looked at the optimization section.
【Raging Storm, Level 1 (16.9%)】
[Bloodline Evolution Agent, rated as Tier 4 Top Grade, allows bloodlines to leap at the genetic level, potentially raising them to the Domain Lord level, increasing gene multiplier by 3 times, and brain domain width by 10.]
[Note 1: Sufficient life energy must be prepared before use]
[Note 2: The effectiveness will gradually decrease with repeated use.]
Looking at the description of the evolution agent, Chen Yuan's eyes revealed a hint of wild joy.
Domain Lord-level bloodline! 3 times the genes! 10 points of brain domain breadth!
Each of these is an extremely miraculous effect.
The Domain Lord level bloodline allows individuals to become Domain Lords upon reaching adulthood, making it arguably the pinnacle of human bloodlines. In addition to the increased efficiency in cultivating genetic energy, Domain Lord level bloodlines also far surpass others in comprehending the laws of nature.
The benefits of tripling gene density and elevating the level of life's genetic makeup are self-evident; it represents a comprehensive enhancement, beyond just physical strength.
There are also qualifications.
While a brain span of 10 points is not as exaggerated as the previous two, it is still an extremely rare ability and also represents an improvement in aptitude.
With all three approaches combined, Chen Yuan couldn't even imagine how much his aptitude would improve!
Now, Chen Yuan can obtain all of the above effects simply by using this evolution agent.
"and--"
Chen Yuan's gaze was fixed on the second note in the system: "Multiple uses, multiple times?"
"This incredibly powerful potion can actually work more than once?!"
Chen Yuan couldn't help but ask the system, "How many times can the optimized bloodline evolution agent be used? How much will its effect decrease with repeated use?"
[Evolution Agent's effectiveness is halved with each use, up to a maximum of three uses.]
"So, you can use a maximum of three?"
A hint of joy flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes.
Even if the effects of the optimized evolution agent gradually decrease, it is still terrifying.
Because this means he can continue to increase his gene multiplication factor.
Even if the effect is halved, three doses should be enough to increase the gene multiplier by at least 5 times.
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan instructed, "Wind Spirit, check the price of the 'S-grade Bloodline Evolution Agent' in the treasure vault."
"Received, Master. The price of the S-grade Bloodline Evolution Agent is 100 points."
"If you want to buy two, the price of the second one will increase to 1000 points."
The wind sprite answered quickly.
"The second dose of the evolution agent was ten times stronger—"
Chen Yuan knew that this was a regulation made by the company to prevent resale, but Chen Yuan was determined to obtain the optimized gene multiplier, so he had to get the remaining two evolution agents.
The main problem now is that Chen Yuan simply cannot come up with those 1100 points.
Moreover, given his current level, the company has not opened up any channels for obtaining points.
The only way for a Planetary-level cultivator to gain points is to enter a secret realm for life-or-death trials, but Shi Lan dislikes his low strength and makes him cultivate to the seventh level of the Planetary-level before he can go to the secret realm.
There's no other way.
Chen Yuan sighed. He really wanted to optimize it twice more, but he didn't have enough points.
Moreover, he's running out of kill points; he only has 400 million kill points left, and he's still 2000 million short to continue optimizing.
"In that case, let's stick to the plan. First, we'll improve our strength, and then we'll enter the secret realm to obtain kill points and scores."
Chen Yuan quickly regained his composure, extracted the evolution agent, aimed the syringe at his body, and injected it in.
He then swallowed three more wood crystals and lay back down in the nutrient tank.
Bloodline evolution consumes a lot of life energy, and wood crystals are a good way to replenish it. The nutrient solution in the nutrient tank also has this effect. With both methods working together, there is no need to worry about insufficient energy.
Soon, Chen Yuan began to feel a pain in his body, and the pain became more and more intense, reminding him of the situation when he took the dragon blood.
"Hmm, it seems to hurt even more than dragon blood."
Chen Yuan gritted his teeth. He felt the energy of the evolution agent entering his body and frantically devouring his cells. This pain was worse than being torn apart by a thousand cuts.
If Chen Yuan were to rate the pain, if the pain from the dragon blood is 5, then the evolution agent would be at least 10!
"Stay calm. I've already entered a meditative state, and these pains can't affect me."
Chen Yuan lay in the nutrient tank, closed his eyes, and calmed his expression, achieving a state of "clear skies and no distracting thoughts," and began to meditate.
It is said that pain is the best test of will. In short, Chen Yuan's proficiency in meditation improved rapidly once again as he fought against pain.
The effects of the evolution agent were rapidly altering the foundation of his body; it seemed that every cell had become a battlefield, and the more intense the battle, the more obvious the results of the changes.
This genetic evolution consumed a large amount of Chen Yuan's life energy, but fortunately, the wood crystals he had swallowed began to be digested, and waves of life force spread throughout his body.
Meanwhile, the external nutrient solution also seeped into the body, complementing the internal and external Mu Yajing. Almost as soon as the evolution agent caused a cell to change, the flowing life energy immediately made up for the deficiency, keeping the body in a high-speed evolution stage.
An hour later.
As the effects of the evolution agent gradually wore off, Chen Yuan opened his eyes.
After stretching his body, he didn't feel tired at all; on the contrary, he felt like he had inexhaustible energy.
I opened the panel and took a look. Sure enough, the level of life genes had increased threefold.
He made the panel display his previous bloodline level.
[Bloodline Level: Initial Domain Lord Level Bloodline "Initial Domain Lord Level? Does that mean one has just entered the Domain Lord level stage after adulthood?"
"Is it possible to upgrade to intermediate, or even advanced levels in the future?"
The level of bloodline also represents the speed of genetic energy cultivation, but this is not important to Chen Yuan.
Because by the time he becomes the domain lord, he will have already entered the core layer of the Virtual Universe Company.
At that time, advancing from the first to the ninth level of the Domain Lord will only require soaking in a nutrient tank; there will be no need for the arduous cultivation of gene energy anymore.
Therefore, Chen Yuan turned his attention to the next item.
[Brain width: 51]
"You're 51?"
Chen Yuan felt a slight sense of satisfaction and looked at the meditation technique; sure enough, his proficiency had reached 93%.
"I remember that before using the evolution agent, my brain width was 39 and my meditation proficiency was 71%."
Chen Yuan pondered for a moment: "It's pain again—it seems pain can accelerate the mastery of meditation techniques. Perhaps I can try it in the future."
Regarding the fight against pain and the enhancement of mental will, Chen Yuan was reminded of another book by the original author, "Cosmic Professional Player," in which the protagonist used methods to fight against pain when cultivating his mental will.
"Unfortunately, the virtual universe of this world doesn't seem to have this function." Chen Yuan thought for a moment, "Of course, I guess it does, it's just not open to the outside world."
After all, he knew that since a place like the Illusionary Sea existed in the virtual universe, simulating pain shouldn't be a difficult function.
"I'll ask Teacher Shilan another day."
Chen Yuan secretly decided that, of course, the most important thing right now was to "continue cultivating!"
