In the Very High, Li Keer and Exquisite were sitting across from each other. Their expressions were strange.
"Third Sister, are you saying that after you passed out, the God Spirit Storm disappeared?" Li Keer looked at Exquisite with a look of disbelief.
Exquisite's face looked strange. "That's what Han Sen told me."
"Weird. With your will, even if your body collapsed, you shouldn't have fallen unconscious. How could you have passed out because you used up all your power?
And the God Spirit Storm disappeared? That is so weird. "Li Keer couldn't believe what she was hearing. After a pause, she went on to say," Fortunately, something so weird happened. Otherwise, you and Han Sen would have been in danger. "
Li Keer didn't suspect Han Sen. She thought she could read Han Sen's mind. After that, she didn't feel anything strange about Han Sen's thoughts. So, she didn't suspect him.
Exquisite was still suspicious. She remembered that Han Sen had indeed knocked her out. Most importantly, when Han Sen attacked her, she didn't feel what he was thinking. That made Exquisite wonder if she could read Han Sen's mind. Otherwise, when Han Sen knocked her out, she would have known what he was thinking. She would have been prepared.
Plus, the God Spirit Storm had been chasing after Han Sen. Why did it leave after Han Sen knocked her out?
"Han Sen … What did he do?" Exquisite felt conflicted, but she didn't tell Li Keer about this.
After Han Sen had some time alone, he took out the six deified geno cores he had received and studied them.
Of the six deified geno cores, three were thunder, two were fire, and one was ice.
Ordinary creatures had to choose a geno core that was of the same element as their own. Otherwise, the geno cores would clash with their own elements, and they could be damaged.
But Han Sen's attributes were average. His attributes weren't outstanding, but he had some. So, he didn't have to worry too much. He could refine geno cores of any element.
"I'll keep these three thunder geno cores for Little Silver. His geno points aren't that great, and it'll help him evolve." Han Sen put away the three thunder geno cores.
There were two fire geno cores and one ice geno core. Han Sen chose the ice geno core. After all, Jadeskin was a bit of an ice element, so it was a good fit.
Han Sen picked up the ice geno core, and it was about the size of an adult's fist. It looked like a diamond with many facets, and it was very pretty.
Inside the geno core, there was a snowflake falling. Amidst the snowflakes, there was a transparent white shadow. It looked like the Snow Lady of legends.
"I've heard that only deified elites can refine geno cores. I wonder if I can refine this."
Han Sen held the ice geno core and cast Jadeskin. He tried to absorb the geno core's power.
The results disappointed Han Sen. Jadeskin couldn't refine the geno core's power. The geno core was like an iron board, and it wouldn't budge.
"If the soft approach doesn't work, then I'll have to do it the hard way."
Han Sen picked up the ice geno core and swallowed it. Then, he cast Consume to refine the ice geno core.
As soon as Consume was cast, Han Sen felt a cold power explode in his stomach. It froze his stomach, and that cold power spread through his body.
In the blink of an eye, Han Sen's entire body was frozen. A layer of ice formed around him, and it was as if he had been encased in a diamond.
Han Sen was shocked. He felt as if his lifeforce was going to be frozen by that cold power. He quickly cast Jadeskin to resist that scary ice power.
Jadeskin was very resistant to ice powers, but even so, Han Sen felt as if his cells were going to stop working. It made Han Sen feel very sleepy. It was as if he had been up all night, and his eyelids were drooping. He felt as if he was going to fall asleep standing up.
But as he slept, Han Sen heard a woman's voice whisper into his ear. It sounded as if she was saying, "Sleep … Sleep …"
When Han Sen heard that voice, he felt even more sleepy. Even Jadeskin's casting became intermittent, and it was difficult for him to focus.
"Oh, no! This cold power has a dormant power." Han Sen was shocked. If he fell asleep like this, he might never wake up again.
"I can't sleep … No matter what, I can't sleep … I can still use Jadeskin to stay alive. If I fall asleep, my cells will be frozen to death, and I won't be able to wake up again." Han Sen kept telling himself to keep using Jadeskin.
Although he knew he couldn't sleep, his body was getting more and more tired. It felt as if he was going to fall asleep at any moment.
His body was getting weaker, and Han Sen had to rely on his own will to keep himself from falling asleep.
He didn't know how much time had passed, but Han Sen felt the tiredness leave his body. He felt more and more energetic, and he didn't feel the cold anymore. His whole body was warm.
Han Sen knew he had made it through the most difficult time, but he did not dare to relax. He continued to cast Jadeskin to absorb the power that was coming his way.
When the power was absorbed by Jadeskin, Han Sen noticed that his Jadeskin hadn't changed. Although the power was absorbed, it didn't combine with Jadeskin's power. It was just attached to Han Sen's body, becoming an independent power.
Han Sen opened his eyes. His heart jumped, and he saw some ice symbols appear on his skin. They covered his entire body like tattoos.
Han Sen could feel the presence of that power. He could control it, but he couldn't practice it like he did with his own geno arts. He couldn't increase that power.
"A deified geno core is amazing. It is no wonder why it is called a talent skill stone. It is like I have an ice deified skill. I don't know what this ice deified skill does, but I think it has something to do with freezing and dormant powers."
Han Sen knew that once a geno core's power was used, it would take a while for it to recover. It wasn't like a geno art that could be used indefinitely.
"Who should I find to try it out?"
Han Sen thought for a moment, but he couldn't think of a suitable candidate. He gave up on the idea for now. He hadn't gone to see Horizontal Evil for a long time. Since Li Keer and Exquisite weren't around, he might as well go see Horizontal Evil in that mysterious space.
