The sixteenth level of the genetic cultivation art was the Psychokinesis Wave Art. Sadly, Feng Lin didn't have the Psychokinesis Gene and was unable to learn it.
After a short rest, he walked towards the seventeenth floor.
The virtual scene on this level was in the boundless outer space. There was no gravity, and the body floated freely like a willow catkin in the wind, with nowhere to land.
The effect of force was mutual. There was nothing in the surroundings, and Feng Lin couldn't touch anything. He could only flail about on the spot, unable to do anything. This caused him to feel extremely uncomfortable.
He was wearing a tight-fitting spacesuit, which was obviously a simulation of a space battle.
A figure also wearing a spacesuit rushed over.
It was different from Feng Lin who had nowhere to go. His opponent's genetic ability seemed to be able to control gravity, making use of the planet's gravity to allow him to move freely in outer space. This was his home ground.
The other party was nimble, shuttling through space like a fish, closing in from time to time.
Feng Lin instantly fell into a disadvantage.
However, after experiencing so many battles, he was no longer the rookie he was before. He appeared to be very experienced.
It didn't matter if they were at a disadvantage, but they couldn't be distracted.
Feng Lin stabilized his state of mind and focused on defense.
At this moment, the twelve years of compulsory education in the Interstellar Era came into play.
The use of wormhole technology allowed humans to travel across the starry skies. It was as common as taking trains or planes during the Ancient Earth Era.
Spacewalk techniques are taught to every student in every school for free.
Feng Lin quickly learned how to operate the spacesuit after experiencing the unfamiliarity from before.
His finger pressed a switch, and the soles of his feet suddenly spurted gas. The recoil force allowed him to walk freely in space. Although he was not as agile as his opponent, he could still fight back.
Apart from being able to manipulate gravity and move nimbly, his opponent's actual combat power was not strong.
After a bitter battle that lasted for close to ten minutes, Feng Lin purposely revealed a flaw and forcefully took on one of his opponent's attacks. After that, he used his body to entangle his opponent and used his immense strength to strangle his opponent to death.
After all, Feng Lin's current vitality stat was 1.8, a little higher than his opponent's. Don't underestimate this 0.1. During crucial moments, this tiny difference would be the difference between life and death.
Luckily, Feng Lin had the last laugh.
Genetic potential + 12%.
Although this battle was difficult, there was no technical content to speak of, and the potential it brought was pitifully little.
He wasn't able to learn this genetic cultivation art "Gravity Light Art". He didn't stop and entered the 18th level.
The Vitality Index of the eighteenth floor was 1.8. He had finally entered the first floor with the same Vitality Index.
This time, they were on a planet that was dark all year round.
The universe was so big that nothing was too strange. Anything was possible.
There were no stars on this planet all year round, so it was dark and cold. The surface of the planet was covered in layers of ice, and there was an endless sea of ice.
The moment Feng Lin entered, he felt a bone-piercing chill. The temperature was over -70 degrees Celsius, and when the cold wind blew against his face, he felt as though he was about to freeze.
He knew this place. This was the Viking Planet!
This was one of the few planets colonized by interstellar humans that didn't have a sun. Because this place was filled with all sorts of rare minerals, it was occupied by humans.
The cold wind was like a knife, cutting one's skin.
Feng Lin's opponent was a muscular white man. His upper body was bare, and it was as though the extreme cold that could freeze people to death was like a warm breeze to him.
These were the Vikings, and it was said that they had the bloodline of the Vikings from ancient Earth. They occupied this place and established a colony. They were also a small independent power of the interstellar humans.
"Brat, you actually dared to barge into our Viking Planet? Courting death!" The Viking grinned malevolently. His bloodshot eyes stared at Feng Lin with malevolence.
At the next instant, he clenched his fist, and the surrounding cold qi rapidly gathered over, forming a trident that pierced toward Feng Lin.
Ice Trident Whale Art!
The Vikings were bloodthirsty and ferocious. They used genetic martial arts that were modified from the ancient martial arts of their race. It was said that they used this martial art to hunt down the black ice whales on the black star.
The trident pierced through the air, exuding a bone-piercing chill.
However, Feng Lin didn't retreat. "Herculean Vajra Hand!"
He used the profoundness of the Vajra Subduing Devil Fist to circulate his qi and blood, activating the Stonebirth Gene in his body.
His palms seemed to be forged from iron and stone. They were dark brown and dull, yet incomparably sturdy. With a single punch, he shattered the trident.
Only a chill extended from his palms, wanting to freeze his blood.
Feng Lin circulated his qi and blood, and the surging heat dispersed the chill.
Seeing that his attack failed, the muscular Viking grew increasingly violent. His hands didn't stop moving. Numerous tridents rapidly condensed and pierced through the air. His body was like a ferocious tiger as he pounced toward Feng Lin.
Such cold weather had a great impact on humans. If it was an ordinary person, it would be very hard for them to withstand it. Their battle prowess would be greatly reduced, and when faced with the ferocious attacks of the Vikings, they would definitely be in a sorry state.
However, the embarrassing thing was that although the two genes Feng Lin had awakened were low-grade genes, they were the strengthening type. Moreover, Feng Lin had strengthened them to an unprecedented level, and his physique was greatly enhanced. He wasn't any weaker than the Viking Nova.
This vile and frigid environment didn't affect him much.
Although the Ice Trident Whale Art was ferocious, Feng Lin's Stonebirth Gene had reached 7 points. His skin was like stone and his bones were like steel, and he wasn't inferior to ordinary weapons.
Also, although this muscular Viking Nova was ferocious, his speed wasn't fast.
However, speed was Feng Lin's forte.
It could be said that he was innately countered by Feng Lin. In that case, was there even a need to think about the ending?
Feng Lin didn't stop punching out. His fists were like thunder, shattering the tridents formed by the cold qi. Finally, he chopped at the muscular Viking Nova's throat, dissipating it into energy.
Genetic potential + 22%.
"He won again!"
"In such a vile environment, how can he still have such shocking battle prowess?!"
"Looking at his performance, this student has only awakened genes that strengthen the body. These are usually low-grade genes. Why are they so strong in his body?"
…
When the head-teachers saw this scene, they were all deeply shocked. Their faces were filled with disbelief and puzzlement.
They didn't expect that after the 16th level, not only did Feng Lin not stop, but he also advanced triumphantly with an indomitable attitude, breaking through two levels consecutively.
"Even the Viking Nova can't stop him?" The female head-teacher mumbled to herself, feeling a little dazed.
Her gaze turned to the other side. The first ranker of the class, Zhao Kai, was also in the 18th level of the illusory martial pagoda.
However, compared to Feng Lin, Zhao Kai's performance was too horrible to look at. The difference was like heaven and earth.
Zhao Kai had awakened the Flame Gene and Metal Gene, allowing him to control the power of fire and metal.
However, the flames he controlled were immediately extinguished when the cold wind blew.
The originally incomparably tough metal was frozen into slag, shattering with a touch.
Such a performance was simply too embarrassing. To think that he had a vitality of 2.2, yet he couldn't even win against an opponent with a vitality of 1.8, let alone Feng Lin. The female head-teacher couldn't bear to watch this any longer.
Feng Lin's performance gave her face.
When comparing goods, one would have to toss them away.
Unknowingly, the scale in her heart started to tilt.
At this moment, the reward of the 18th level, the Ice Trident Art, was revealed. It required one to awaken the Ice Gene, and just like before, Feng Lin still couldn't learn it.
"Seems like it's a little difficult to learn genetic martial arts for free!" Feng Lin sighed at his bad luck and was preparing to continue up the stairs.
Suddenly, his legs went soft, and he almost fell to the ground.
Had his stamina been depleted again?
Feng Lin panted heavily, feeling that he had reached his limit and couldn't continue on any longer.
"Could it be that it's going to end here?" He mused, his heart wavering.
However, after thinking about it, he shook his head and immediately discarded this cowardly thought.
Right now, he was already at the 18th level, and there were only two more levels left before he reached the 20th level.
This was another dividing line!
The opponent on the 20th level had a battle prowess of 2.0. If he could break through this level, it would mean that his strength would be able to rise to the upper middle of the graduating class.
Right now, he still had one genetic point left. As long as he added it, he would be able to recover and continue on!
Without any hesitation, Feng Lin added the genetic point decisively.
Name: Feng Lin
Vitality: 1.9
Monkey Gene: 10
Stonebirth Gene: 8
Genetic Potential: 152%
The Stonebirth Gene had been officially strengthened to 8 points.
Creak, creak!
His bones creaked like firecrackers, and his skin had a smooth jade-like texture. However, upon closer inspection, he discovered that it was covered in dense veined patterns. When he flicked his skin with his finger, a clanging sound could be heard, as if he was knocking on a piece of metal.
Was this the state where the Stonebirth Gene was strengthened to its limit?
Feng Lin felt that it was unbelievable.
As he continued to break through, there might be more mysterious changes.
Just two more points and the Stonebirth Gene would be maxed out. At that time, he would be able to officially fuse the gene and evolve it into a higher-tiered gene.
Feng Lin looked at the martial pagoda on the higher levels, and a hint of ambition flashed in his eyes as he slowly walked up.
On the 19th level, because his vitality had broken through to 1.9, this level was still a battle of equals.
However, this time around, it was unexpectedly easy.
His opponent was an expert who was proficient in assassination techniques. He wore a black robe and covered his face, like a japanese ninja. He could hide like a shadow, and it was unknown what gene he had awakened.
Such an opponent was hard to defend against and was very difficult to deal with.
However, the defense of Feng Lin's strengthened skin was extraordinary. The hidden weapons that the ninja used were like hitting an impenetrable wall, unable to break through it.
Although his opponent had a vitality of 1.9, he didn't have an advantage in terms of speed and strength before Feng Lin.
In the end, Feng Lin purposely revealed an opening and allowed himself to be hit. He grabbed the ninja's neck and broke it, obtaining an easy victory.
Genetic potential + 16%.
This time around, his opponent couldn't even break through his defense and was countered by him. He didn't even gain much genetic potential.
The Shadow Ninja Technique required him to awaken the Shadow Gene, and Feng Lin still wasn't able to learn this genetic martial art.
"Even a japanese ninja isn't a match for him! This guy is going to be heaven-defying! " Everyone was astonished. This level was a headache for many people. How many people couldn't do anything to that elusive ninja? They didn't expect that Feng Lin would be able to deal with him so easily.
All of this was like an illusion.
Fighting against someone of a higher level, with a vitality of 0.4, and he actually succeeded!
Everyone grew increasingly curious.
Where was Feng Lin's limit?
This was something that Feng Lin wanted to know as well.
The others might not be clear, but Feng Lin was very clear. After adding more genetic points, his vitality had long since reached 1.9.
The next level would be the 20th level. This time around, it was different from the past.
To Feng Lin, this was a true battle against someone of a higher level. Moreover, he no longer had any free genetic points that he could use.
This also meant that he had lost his final trump card to ascend the pagoda. This was definitely going to be a tough battle.
Whether or not he could ascend to the next level, it would all depend on this battle!
He slowly sat cross-legged and adjusted his breathing, recovering himself to his peak condition. He then walked toward the 20th level of the martial pagoda.
What Feng Lin didn't expect was that this time around, his opponent was actually …
Aliens?
No, it should be called …
