After killing the Xuanyuan Dragon, Han Sen and the others left Xuanyuan Cave.
Aside from Han Sen, the others weren't doing well. First Day and Yun Sushang were injured, and they couldn't risk their lives. Plus, they had to transport the Xuanyuan Dragon and Ghost Claw Beast's bodies.
Aside from the xenogeneic genes, the Xuanyuan Dragon's body was still useful. They couldn't let it go to waste.
Han Sen, under Thousand Feather Crane's guidance, cut open the Xuanyuan Dragon's head and took out a brain orb. That was the Xuanyuan Dragon's xenogeneic gene.
The brain orb was the size of a fist. It was like a black crystal, and the weirdest thing about it was that there was a Xuanyuan Dragon with wings inside.
"Mutant Marquise xenogeneic gene obtained. Insufficient Marquise genes to absorb."
When Han Sen received the brain essence orb, a notification popped up in his head.
Han Sen was shocked. "What does that mean?
Could it be that absorbing such mutated genes requires a certain amount of genes as a foundation? "
Han Sen quietly put away the brain orb. Then, he and Thousand Feather Crane carried the loot out of Xuanyuan Cave.
"Han Sen, what kind of geno art did you use on the Xuanyuan Dragon? It almost stopped it from moving. That is amazing," Yun Suyi said to Han Sen as they walked.
"It is a geno art that slows down. It is called Turtle," Han Sen answered.
Hearing the name, Yun Suyi and the others were shocked. Yun Suyi smiled and said, "That is a good name. It turned the Xuanyuan Dragon into a turtle."
Thousand Feather Crane and the others were shocked, too. If a speed reduction skill could do something like that, it couldn't have been an ordinary geno art.
After a discussion, Han Sen sold the Xuanyuan Dragon's body to Yun Sushang. Yun Sushang called a worker to bring the body back.
Han Sen took the Xuanyuan Dragon and Ghost Claw Beast xenogeneic genes. He rode the legless crane back to his island.
On the way back, Han Sen checked out his new beast soul.
Ghost Claw Beast: Weapon type
Han Sen summoned the Ghost Claw beast soul and had a look. It was a weapon that looked like a ghost claw.
The Ghost Claw had a three-foot long handle, and in front of it was a blade that looked like a skeleton's claw. It was unknown what kind of weapon it was.
He put away the Ghost-pawed Claws and summoned the mutant Xuanyuan Dragon beast soul.
Mutant Xuanyuan Dragon: Flying-type
After Han Sen summoned it, he felt a little depressed. He thought it would be a very cool pair of wings, but after he summoned it, it was just like before the Xuanyuan Dragon showed its power. A pair of very small Xuanyuan Jade Wings appeared outside Han Sen's ears.
What kind of wings were those? They were just a pair of ear wings.
Although it looked quite beautiful, Han Sen was very skeptical about its real performance.
Han Sen tried to use his dragon wings to fly, and it worked. His flying speed was amazing. It was almost as fast as the rabbit shoes.
Plus, the rabbit shoes only increased movement speed. They did not increase flying speed. The dragon wings increased flying speed. It was perfect for Han Sen in Sky Palace, and it would be very useful in the future.
After all, he would have to fight in space. Even if he wore the rabbit shoes, he wouldn't be able to use them as much as the dragon wings would.
But when he used the dragon wings, the two little wings on either side of his ears flapped. It looked a little funny.
After Han Sen melted the Ghost Claw Beast xenogeneic gene, he ate it like a bone. He felt a power spread through his body, and it made him feel cold. It was like he had been washed in cold water.
"Earl xenogeneic gene + 1."
This time, Han Sen received nine Ghost Claw Beast xenogeneic genes. After eating them all, he received nine Earl genes.
The mutant Xuanyuan Dragon xenogeneic gene could not be melted, so he could not eat it. Just as the announcement said, he did not have enough Marquise genes to refine the Xuanyuan Dragon's mutant xenogeneic gene.
The next day, he had nothing to do. White Jade Jing hadn't opened yet, so there was no point in going. He had nothing else to do, so he decided to go to Xuanyuan Cave alone to hunt xenogeneics. He wanted to max out his Earl genes as soon as possible. If his fitness improved, it'd be easier for him to level up his geno arts.
Han Sen rode the legless crane back to Xuanyuan Cave. He left the crane outside and entered the cave alone.
Without Thousand Feather Crane and the others, Han Sen had nothing to worry about. He used the rabbit shoes to go as fast as he could, and he went deeper into Xuanyuan Cave.
Perhaps it was because the rabbit shoes were too fast, but the Xuan Jade Spirits that were hiding in the rocks did not come out. After three hours of running, they had already passed the location where they had hunted the Xuanyuan Dragon, but they had yet to encounter a xenogeneic.
Han Sen slowed down, hoping to lure the Xuan Jade Spirits out.
On his way, he saw a few Sky Palace students hunting xenogeneics in Xuanyuan Cave, but they were in groups. Only Han Sen went in alone.
When the Sky Palace students saw Han Sen enter Xuanyuan Cave alone, they were shocked.
The Xuan Jade Spirits came and went like ghosts. It was easy for someone to get into trouble in Xuanyuan Cave alone. Usually, the Sky Palace students who went there to hunt would find a partner. It was rare to see someone like Han Sen go alone.
"Save me!"
Han Sen walked forward slowly. He didn't get ambushed by the Xuan Jade Spirits, but he heard a cry for help coming from one of the caves up ahead.
Han Sen walked in that direction, and he saw a Sky man running for his life. Behind him was a xenogeneic that looked like an ant. It was the size of a cat.
Han Sen's heart jumped, and Spell appeared next to him. She raised her sniper rifle and fired a bullet. From a few hundred meters away, she blew up the xenogeneic's head.
"Xenogeneic Viscount hunted: Jade Ant. Xenogeneic gene found."
"Run!" the Sky man shouted at Han Sen as he ran.
"Why are you running? It's already dead," Han Sen said.
The Sky man kept running and shouting, "It's not just one! There are more!"
"How many?" Han Sen asked.
"Many … Many … Run!" The Sky man ran past Han Sen.
Han Sen didn't ask again, because he saw the Jade Ants come out of the cave like a flood. There were so many of them that he couldn't tell how many there were.
"That's a lot." Han Sen wasn't shocked. He was happy, and his eyes lit up.
Spell didn't need Han Sen's command. She turned her sniper rifle into a rocket launcher. She rested it on her shoulder, arched her legs, and pulled the trigger.
A cannonball immediately flew out and landed in the middle of the tide-like swarm of ants.
