Super Gene Hunting Ground

Yang Xiao and the Wildman King piloted a small spaceship to the place where they initially searched for the Wildman Leader’s cave.

They first arrived at a nearby city named ”Chuanfeng,” whose leader was Achuan.

Seeing the Wildman King and Yang Xiao disembark from the spaceship, Achuan hurriedly approached and bowed:

”Achuan pays respects to the old leader and Yang Leader. Welcome to our Chuanfeng City!”

The Wildman King laughed:

”Achuan, your place looks great now; the city has been built well and seems very prosperous.”

”It’s all thanks to Yang Leader. Now that there are no Witch Star people chasing us, we can mine freely. We’ve even established a Genetic Store in the city, where people can use their mining income to directly purchase Genetic Potions and Armor and Weapons. Everyone is so happy and grateful to both Yang Leader and the old leader for their contributions.”

Yang Xiao nodded and said:

”Achuan, we want to visit that Wildman predecessor’s cave again.”

Achuan was stunned and said:

”Yang Leader, haven’t you visited before? Why go again?”

”Well, it’s said that the legendary Wildman predecessor broke through the Emperor Level Realm, but when I tried to refine the Elixir Medicine based on the Evolution Pill formula left on the cave wall, the effect was unsatisfactory,

Our Purple Origin Star now faces significant difficulties, hoping to find useful information left by the Wildman predecessor to improve the Evolution Pill’s refinement, helping our Guangfu Clan accelerate Genetic Evolution to resist invaders.”

Achuan said,

”I’ll have Flying Wolf accompany you to the cave. He’s very familiar with it.”

Flying Wolf is the Wildman who first discovered the cave, whom Yang Xiao has met before.

A moment later, Achuan sent someone to bring Flying Wolf, who upon seeing Yang Xiao and the Wildman King, was initially stunned and then bowed,

”Greetings to Yang Leader and the old leader!”

Last time, Achuan and Flying Wolf hid information about the cave, but Yang Xiao uncovered the truth, and the Wildman King left a mess in the cave, mocking Achuan on the wall,

It was a bit embarrassing for Achuan and Flying Wolf to meet them again.

Fortunately, the Wildman King didn’t bring up the past, making them feel a bit more at ease.

Achuan wanted to host Yang Xiao and the others for a banquet before heading to the cave, but Yang Xiao said:

”It’s not important what we eat; let’s go to the cave first.”

”Alright, I’ll take you there now.”

Yang Xiao, the Wildman King, Achuan, Flying Wolf, and several guards activated their Floating Flight Technique and flew towards the mountain peaks dozens of kilometers away.

After over ten minutes, the group descended from mid-air and landed directly at the cave entrance.

Achuan and Flying Wolf lit torches at the front and walked into the dark, damp cave.

Through the dim front cave, Yang Xiao and others reached a more spacious part of the cave, where there was a natural large hole. Sunlight shone inside, making the cave suddenly much brighter, with the writings on the walls clearly visible.

Yang Xiao glanced around the cave, noticing that the walls were much cleaner now. Previously riddled with green spots, those spots were now gone from the stone walls,

and the floor was also clean.

Yang Xiao was surprised, thinking that someone must be cleaning here regularly!

Yang Xiao looked at Achuan and Flying Wolf and asked:

”Do you two come here often?”

Achuan’s face turned slightly awkward, saying:

”Not to hide it, Yang Leader, we do come here often to study the writings on the walls. I thought, after all, it’s the predecessor’s labor, maybe the legends about him are true? We can’t waste the predecessor’s hard work without studying it.”

The Wildman King nodded,

”Achuan, you’re right. Whoever unlocks this Wildman predecessor’s insights in Genetic Evolution will be doing a great service for our Guangfu Clan,

So, how’s your research going? Any discoveries?”

Achuan and Flying Wolf exchanged a glance and awkwardly shook their heads.

”Over the years, I’ve organized people from the tribe with high Genetic Evolution Talent to research here, and they’ve found nothing. I can recite the writings on the stone walls by heart, but still haven’t found a breakthrough direction,

I’ve also tried the Elixir Medicine formula on the wall, but it’s ineffective.”

Yang Xiao could refine the Evolution Pill formula on the stone wall into a Blessing Pill, but Achuan couldn’t even manage that.

Yang Xiao looked at Achuan and smiled slightly, suddenly swung a punch at Achuan.

Achuan was startled, instinctively triggered a Defensive Light Shield, and counter-punched against Yang Xiao’s shockwave, shouting:

”Yang Leader, why are you attacking me?”

Yang Xiao was at the Empire Middle Level Realm, and Achuan was also at the Empire Middle Level Realm. Their shockwaves collided, echoing with a loud bang,

The shockwave exploded inside the small cave, causing it to buzz and shake.

Achuan felt his body reverberate and was blown back by Yang Xiao’s punch, hitting the wall dozens of meters away,

with a thud,

then fell down.

The Wildman King, Flying Wolf, and others were also stunned, not knowing why Yang Xiao suddenly attacked Achuan, hurriedly calling:

”Yang Xiao?”

”Yang Leader?”

Yang Xiao waved his hand and smiled:

”Don’t worry, I just wanted to test if Achuan’s Genetic Evolution has improved, see if he’s deceiving me. I remember Achuan was already at the Empire Middle Level before; now, after testing, he’s still at the Empire Middle Level, so Achuan hasn’t lied to me. He truly hasn’t unlocked the cave’s secrets.”

Achuan was caught off guard by Yang Xiao’s sudden attack and naturally used all his strength to resist.

Achuan got up from the ground, touching his slightly aching chest, spat out a mouthful of blood, and took a Big Blood Pill before walking slowly to Yang Xiao, bowing:

”Yang Leader, I dare not deceive you. Indeed, I haven’t discovered the secrets on the stone wall.”

Yang Xiao nodded, looked at Achuan, and calmly said:

”Achuan, don’t blame me for doubting you. Years ago, when my grandfather and I first came here, you deceived us, remember?”

Achuan and Flying Wolf lowered their heads in shame, speaking tremulously:

”Yang Leader, old leader, sorry, we deserve punishment,”

Yang Xiao waved his hand and said:

”The past is past. We could understand your feelings back then. From now on, we’re all part of the Guangfu Clan, and we need to unite and protect our clan’s interests against the Witch Star people’s invasion.”

”Yes!”

Achuan and Flying Wolf bowed down.

Yang Xiao glanced at the cave’s stone walls and said calmly:

”You’ve researched this cave for so long; haven’t you discovered anything?”

Achuan and Flying Wolf hurriedly said:

”Yang Leader, we really haven’t found anything new. If we’re hiding something, let us be struck by lightning!”

Seeing their earnest expressions, Yang Xiao assumed they weren’t lying and nodded, turning to the Wildman King.

”Grandpa, what do you think?”

The Wildman King sighed and said:

”I’m over a hundred and fifty years old, and in my memory, I’ve never seen a Genetic Evolver break through the Emperor Level Realm on Purple Origin Star. Whether Wildmen or Demon Beasts,

We’re different from the Witch Star people. Witch Star’s Genetic Evolution Technology is far more advanced, with thousands of years of development and a complete, mature Evolution Technique,

This Wildman predecessor of ours is just a legend. Whether he truly broke through the Emperor Level Realm, nobody knows,

Sigh, Yang Xiao, it seems this path may be a dead end.”

Achuan and Flying Wolf nodded in agreement.

Yang Xiao hesitated and said:

”Grandpa, why not go rest with Achuan and the others? I’ll check around the cave once more.”

Knowing Yang Xiao’s urgency, the Wildman King patted Yang Xiao’s shoulder,

”Yang Xiao, I know you’re under pressure, but don’t rush; the sky won’t collapse. If the War God attacks us, I’ll fight him, and my old bones aren’t so easily defeated.”

Yang Xiao smiled wryly,

”Achuan, please take the old leader back to rest. I’ll linger here a bit more.”

The Wildman King saw Yang Xiao’s determination and didn’t insist, leaving with Achuan and providing Yang Xiao with some torches before departing,

”Yang Xiao, don’t push yourself!”

”Yes, Grandpa, don’t worry, I know my limits.”

After they left, Yang Xiao stayed alone in the cave, walking to the stone wall to carefully read the writings.

Yang Xiao had read the writings on the wall three years ago; they were reflections on daily cultivation and mental methods left by the Wildman predecessor.

Yang Xiao took another look, feeling something amiss, so he leaned closer, secretly cursing himself.
