Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Lin Shen stared at the Seventh Turn Life Base Blood Prison King, yet he still charged forward at full speed.

The reason he had abandoned his knife and sword, even going so far as to throw away Wan Guotao's Pet Launcher, was simply to attract the attention of Wan Shuiliu and the others, preventing them from launching an attack as soon as they laid eyes on him.

Distance was crucial; he needed to close the gap. Only when he was close enough would he stand a chance of striking a lethal blow.

However, to others, Lin Shen's act of charging straight towards the Blood Prison King seemed akin to seeking his own death.

Ascenders' Life Bases gain a ten percent enhancement in Attribute after the first rebirth, but it's not just the attributes that are enhanced.

The capabilities of Base Change Talent also improve with each rebirth.

At the same time, the innate talents of the Life Base itself are enhanced.

Ordinary Life Bases generally don't possess Base Talents; only mutated Life Bases do.

With each rebirth of the Life Base, the power of the Life Base Skills also continues to increase.

The Seventh Turn Blood Prison King, a very rare triple-talent mutated Life Base, possessed the Prison King's Eye— a dominating Base Talent. It was also considered highly ranked among human Ascenders.

Normally, if Ascenders have the opportunity to advance, most would choose not to undergo too many rebirths.

Excessively frequent rebirths demand an enormously large amount of resources, and after reaching the fifth turn, most human Ascenders try to break through instead of dwelling indefinitely at the Ascension Level.

Remaining at the Ascension Level for an extended time results in an investment that doesn't proportionally match its returns. For the ten percent enhancement provided by each rebirth, the vast amount of resources and time subsequently expended are not worthwhile for most Ascenders.

Only those truly exceptional in talent and with unique Base Talents in their Life Bases pursue higher numbers of rebirths.

Wan Shuiliu was such a person; with his capabilities, he had a great chance to break through the Ascension Level at the fifth turn, but he chose to stay at the Ascension Level to pursue the limit of ten turns.

After the fifth turn, each subsequent rebirth required an overwhelming amount of resources, and only now had he reached the seventh turn, nearly breaking through to the eighth turn.

Countless hands of the Blood Prison King bore eyes that radiated light, intertwining halos of numerous light resembling the gaze of many demons locking onto Lin Shen.

Lin Shen, who had been charging forward furiously, suddenly came to a halt as if bound; it seemed as if the only things remaining before his eyes were the demonic and ghastly Blood Prison King and the bizarre sea of blood-colored eyes observing him.

"I've always heard that the 'Blood Sea Reincarnation Scripture' of the Great Cosmic Clans' Hai Ao could give the chance to congeal the mutated Life Base Blood Prison King after Ascension, and that with a minuscule probability, this can result in the Prison King's Eye Talent that is capable of transforming the power of the Life Base into a gaze that can imprison all beings.

Today, I have finally witnessed it with my own eyes; it is indeed formidable," Tu Xiaodao praised.

"Does Lin Shen have any chance of breaking the Prison King's Eye?" the young girl asked, unsure if it was out of sympathy for the underdog or for some other reason, she did not wish for Lin Shen to be killed just like that.

"It's difficult," Tu Xiaodao mused before saying, "As far as I know, there are only two methods to break the gaze of the Prison King's Eye."

"What methods?" the young girl quickly inquired.

"There are some Life Base Skills that can counter the Prison King's Eye. For example, Phoenix Purple Qi Jue practiced by Wei Family, where after Ascension there's a chance to congeal a Purple Qi Phoenix Life Base. Some Purple Qi Phoenix Life Bases possess an innate skill known as Purple Qi Eastward Divine Light, which can break the imprisoning power of the Prison King's Eye's gaze.

There are several other similar Base Talents as well, but unfortunately, Lin Shen is still a Mutator, so this method is not feasible."

"Is there another way?" the girl asked urgently.

"The other method is rather simple. The gaze of the Blood Prison King originates from the strength transformed from the Blood Prison King himself; as long as one's strength surpasses that of the Blood Prison King, one can shatter the gaze of the Blood Prison King with absolute force," Tu Xiaodao said.

"Lin Shen is just a Mutator; no matter how strong he is, it's impossible for him to be more powerful than a Seventh Turn Life Base. Doesn't that mean he's doomed? Is there really no other way?" the girl said.

"At least I have not heard of any other methods. The reason Wan Shuiliu pursues higher level rebirths is to maximize the effect of the Blood Prison King's gaze. Among Ascenders, unless someone undergoes more rebirths than Wan Shuiliu, it would be very difficult to break his Blood Prison King's gaze," Tu Xiaodao shook his head.

Tu Xiaodao was aware of this, and so were Instructor Mu, Hai Daxiu, and others. Hence, the moment Wan Shuiliu deployed the powers of the Blood Prison King, Instructor Mu knew that Lin Shen was in trouble.

Instructor Mu stood up, but he was held back by Hai Daxiu.

"Your teaching ability is unmatched, but your Life Base rebirth count is too low, not enough to rival Wan Shuiliu's, so breaking the Blood Prison King's gaze won't be possible, and your effort would be in vain," Hai Daxiu shook his head.

"It was I who kept Lin Shen here. If I do nothing and just watch him be killed, how will I face Xiangdong, that little brat in the future? I can't let him point at my aged face and curse me, right?" Instructor Mu said.

"You promised Wan Guotao not to interfere with Lin Shen's affairs with the Wan Family again," Hai Daxiu added.

"I'd rather be the despicable one who breaks his word to fatten my conscience; after all, it's just an aged face. I don't need it," Instructor Mu said as he tried to push Hai Daxiu's hand away.

However, Hai Daxiu's hand was like an immovable mountain, pressing down so firmly that Instructor Mu couldn't budge.

"You..." Instructor Mu's complexion changed instantly.

"Old Mu, you can disregard your face, but not your life. You can blame me if you want, but I have to keep you alive," Hai Daxiu's body surged with water-like Life Base energy, encapsulating Instructor Mu in a sphere of water. Within the sphere, serpentine dragons entwined around Instructor Mu's body, rendering him unable to move.

Instructor Mu tried with all his might to break free from the grasp of the serpentine dragons and stand up, but he struggled to break through Hai Daxiu's Life Base.

"It's over," Ximen Swordsman, sitting on the wall top, stood up, planning to leave the place.

He met Lin Shen in the desert and learned about this affair. After teleporting back from the Realm King Planet, he came straight to Sea Corn Base for the spectacle.

Indeed, he witnessed quite a drama. Lin Shen was very powerful, but facing a Seventh Turn Blood Prison King, there was no chance at all.

"Lin Miao, come out, or I'll start slicing off pieces of Lin Shen's flesh, making him wish he could die but unable to," Wan Shuiliu reached out a hand and drew the Spirit Base Knife that had been laying on the ground near Lin Shen into his palm, then slowly walked toward Lin Shen.

The Blood Prison King hovered above his head, its gaze from the Prison King's Eye completely immobilizing Lin Shen, so he couldn't move at all.

Lin Shen's body still shimmered with the brilliant light of the Super Base Pattern, but no matter how desperately he tried to unleash his strength, he couldn't move in the slightest, the Death Powder in his hand equally immobile.

Wan Shuiliu walked up to Lin Shen, and still, with no sign of Lin Miao, he hesitated not a moment longer and brought his knife down toward Lin Shen's arm, aiming to whittle him down to nothing.

"Aren't you supposed to have incredible regenerative abilities? Let's see if you can regrow a severed limb. If you can, I'll cut you a thousand times, ten thousand times. If Lin Miao doesn't show up, then the cutting will go on forever..." Wan Shuiliu's eyes bore extreme coldness.
