Exquisite was still confused, but she couldn't find anything suspicious. She didn't find anything else in the tower, either. So, she left Destiny's Tower with Han Sen.
They continued to walk through the desert. Han Sen saw many strange things along the way. Even with his knowledge, there were many things he had never seen before. He didn't know where they had come from.
When they reached an oasis, Exquisite said to Han Sen, "The space here is relatively stable. You can open the core area door here. You won't be sucked into the anti-material world."
Han Sen thanked Li Keer and tried to open the core area door. This time, it opened as usual. Han Sen entered the core area again.
Han Sen wanted to enter the core area because there, he would be far away from Li Keer and Exquisite. They wouldn't be able to sense his thoughts, and that would allow him to practice his geno arts. They wouldn't be able to spy on him. Han Sen wanted to enter the core area.
While he was in Outer Sky, Han Sen didn't dare practice his geno arts. If Exquisite and the others found out that he had four self geno arts, he would be in big trouble.
In Outer Sky, aside from practicing the geno arts Exquisite had given him, Han Sen only dared to practice The Story of Genes. The Rebate and Sky Palace knew about it, and so did the Very High. So, there was no need to hide it.
Even if Exquisite and the others saw The Story of Genes, it would be useless. Aside from Han Sen, no one else could learn it.
Now that he was in the core area, he could focus on practicing his geno arts. But he didn't want to practice his self geno art. He wanted to practice the geno art called Heart Connection. If he didn't use a beast soul, that explosive attack might be the only way he could deal fatal damage to the deified Shale.
Han Sen went to the core area for another reason. He wanted to meet Gu Qingcheng and Elysian Moon. He wanted to ask them for help with something.
Fortunately, Gu Qingcheng and Elysian Moon were in the core area, killing xenogeneics. They weren't too far from where Han Sen was, so he was able to contact them quickly.
"How does it feel to be a pet for a pretty girl in the Very High?" Elysian Moon looked at Han Sen with a smile that wasn't a smile.
"It doesn't feel good. I feel like I'm not wearing any clothes at all. There's no privacy at all," Han Sen said helplessly.
"Why are you looking for us in such a hurry? Is there something you need?" Gu Qingcheng could tell that Han Sen had something on his mind.
"I have a geno art here, but I'm not sure what it does. I can't leave the Very High right now, so I want you to take this geno art to someone. I want them to help me see what this geno art does," Han Sen said. He handed the Xuan Yellow Sutra he had prepared to Gu Qingcheng.
"Who are you giving this to?" Gu Qingcheng asked after accepting the Xuan Yellow Sutra.
"There is a person in the Extreme King called Mister White. I have a way to contact him, but because of my relationship with the Extreme King, meeting him will be very dangerous. So, you guys have to be careful. After you contact him, you have to make sure you stay safe. Listen to Mister White's orders." Han Sen told Gu Qingcheng how to contact Mister White.
Han Sen just wanted to know what would happen if he practiced the Xuan Yellow Sutra. If it didn't harm him, he could just use it. He didn't even need to practice it. All he had to do was reverse the Blood-Pulse Sutra according to the Xuan Yellow Sutra's method.
After Gu Qingcheng and Elysian Moon left, Han Sen found a quiet place in the core area to practice Heart Connection. There was an 80% to 90% chance that he would be able to hurt Shale with this geno art.
There was also Break Six Skies. Han Sen researched it further. Break Six Skies' explosive power was very strong, but it was an area of effect. It wasn't as strong as Heart Connection's penetrative power, but it was still one of the strongest geno arts Han Sen possessed.
Things didn't go as smoothly as he had hoped. Han Sen waited for four days before Gu Qingcheng and Elysian Moon returned to the core area.
"I gave it to Mister White. He said he would need some time to study it. He will give you an answer in half a month," Gu Qingcheng said.
"Half a month?"
Han Sen shook his head. There were only three days left until the silkworm bouts. If he needed half a month to get an answer from Mister White, he wouldn't be able to use the geno art in the silkworm bouts.
But Han Sen hadn't planned on using the Blood-Pulse Sutra, so he wasn't too disappointed.
He learned more about Planet Eclipse and Sky Palace from Gu Qingcheng. He practiced his geno arts for two more days before leaving the core area.
"What took you so long?"
When Li Keer saw Han Sen, she let out a sigh of relief. There was only one day left until the silkworm bouts. If Han Sen hadn't returned, things would have been bad.
"My friend hasn't returned to the core area yet. I waited a few days before I saw him," Han Sen said.
"What was the result?" Li Keer asked.
"It was a wasted trip. There wasn't enough time, and he couldn't think of a way to defeat me," Han Sen said with resignation.
Li Keer said, "There is no way for a ninth-tier King to defeat a deified elite. It doesn't matter how long it takes. It's impossible unless you use a treasure. But this time, the silkworm bouts forbid the use of treasures. They are giving Shale first place."
Han Sen thought she was right. The Very High's decision was indeed giving Shale first place.
"Is there a problem with Shale?
Why would they give him first place? "Han Sen asked, looking at Li Keer.
"There isn't much time left. We have to go to the valley to participate in the silkworm bouts. Let's talk while we go," Li Keer said, and then she quickly left the oasis.
On the way, Li Keer told Han Sen more about Shale.
Shale was born deified, and he had a ten armor talent. If his luck wasn't too bad and he had enough resources, he could become a true god.
The most important thing was that the person who had signed a contract with Shale was the big brother of the Very High. The legends said he was very talented, and the Very High seemed to want to raise him. They wanted to use him to enter the geno hall. So, even his silkworm was taken care of.
"Do the Very High want to enter the geno hall?
What is in the geno hall? "Han Sen asked with curiosity.
"I don't know. The Very High once had elites enter the geno hall. They left behind some information about the geno hall, but the information was very vague. It seemed like they wanted us to enter the geno hall, and they also seemed to be asking for help," Li Keer said.
"I thought you could become a God Spirit if you entered the geno hall.
Why would they ask for help? "Han Sen asked with confusion.
"That is what we want to know, but we haven't been able to find an answer," Li Keer said.
