Waves of seawater slapped against the shore, feeling incomparably cold. Feng Lin opened his eyes and discovered that he was lying horizontally in the sea, drifting along with the waves.
He opened his eyes, looking very confused.
What the hell happened?
Earlier, wasn't he fighting against those Japanese and was struck by the Amaterasu black flames? What happened after that? Why did he suddenly appear here?
…
A huge blank appeared in his memory, making him puzzled no matter how he thought about it.
Suddenly, he felt his hand sink. Looking down, he was surprised to find that his hand was tightly gripping an iron rod, refusing to let go.
This iron rod was completely black and perfectly round, and there were eight words on it: "Formless Weapon, Idealistic Energy"!
Wasn't this the Divine Pillar of Japan?
How did it become so small?
…
Feng Lin was shocked. He suddenly felt an intense pain in his head as countless memories flashed before his eyes.
He was shocked to see himself suddenly awakening and killing everything in his path. That kind of powerful ability was definitely not something the current him could possess!
It felt like … like …
It was as if he had changed into another person!
I, Old Sun?
The words that came out of the mouth of the unfamiliar version of himself caused Feng Lin's hair to stand on end. (Could it be that Sun Wukong borrowed my body to revive?)
A monkey has always been living in my heart?
Ready to take over my body at any time?
…
Feng Lin was unable to accept this. Although he was walking on Sun Wukong's mythological path, he was himself. He didn't want to become anyone else.
So what if that monkey reigned supreme in the Three Realms and laughed arrogantly at the Fiendgods?
No matter how awe-inspiring it was, it wasn't him!
No, that's not right!
After experiencing the initial panic, Feng Lin was no ordinary person. He gradually calmed down.
The revival of mythological characters with the help of mythological genes was something that had never happened in the three thousand plus years of cultivation history of interstellar humans. It didn't conform to the theory of mythological genes!
Those ancient mythological characters had long since disappeared in the river of time. Other than mythological genes, there was nothing left behind.
If they could be resurrected, they would have done so long ago. Why would they wait until now?
This special phenomenon had never appeared on anyone else. It was unheard of. Why would it appear on me?
Feng Lin couldn't understand it no matter how hard he thought about it. He was thinking about how he was different from others.
All of a sudden, his heart thumped. Could it be that everything was related to the paragon mythological path?
The more Feng Lin thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.
In the Ancient Cultivation Era, paragon gods and devils had reached a height that ordinary people couldn't hope to reach. Their existences all had transcendent characteristics. Memories, wills, thoughts … they were all fused into one and were passed down in mythological genes.
In the future, when people awakened the corresponding mythological genes, they would also receive the inheritance from the memories of the paragon gods and devils, inheriting their will.
It seemed like Sun Wukong's willpower was too strong, which was why it was disturbing him!
Thinking back to how his heart had been filled with a baleful aura that disregarded even the heavens and earth, Feng Lin fell into deep thought.
Great Sage Will?
What made his heart tremble was that he had only awakened the Stone Monkey Gene, but his Great Sage Will was already so strong. If he continued on this path, Sun Wukong's memories and will would keep on awakening and gradually affect him.
When he reached the end of his mythological path, would he become another Sun Wukong?
In that case, wouldn't Sun Wukong be resurrected in his body?
Feng Lin knew his own limitations. He was just a mortal. Would he really be able to win against Sun Wukong's will?
The possibility was next to nothing!
Although Sun Wukong's mythological path allowed him to step onto the path of transcendence, there would be a day when he would also have to walk out of the limitations of this path.
The paragon mythological path might have a bright future, but it wasn't necessary for him to walk to the end and become the ancient gods and devils. He just had to borrow their cultivation experience and perfect himself. In the end, he would still have to walk on his own path.
At the thought of this, Feng Lin's mind cleared up. It was like the clear sky, with no dark clouds at all.
A seed of cultivation was buried deep in his heart, waiting for the day when the time was ripe and it would sprout!
Feng Lin silently held onto the metal cudgel in his hand as his heart stirred.
Measureless Divine Metal Cudgel!
He naturally knew the name of this magic treasure.
This was a strange magic treasure controlled by spirit force. The stronger one's spirit force was, the stronger the prowess this divine metal could unleash.
If one's spirit force was boundless, the divine metal would change according to one's will, containing endless profoundness. Hence, it was named the Measureless Divine Metal Cudgel.
However, if one wanted to refine this magic treasure, one's spirit force would also need to be extremely strong. In the past, Feng Lin wouldn't be able to do it.
However, due to a freak combination of factors, the Great Sage Will had awakened in Feng Lin's body. His spirit force erupted and resonated with the Measureless Divine Metal Cudgel from afar. Only then did he manage to refine it with his powerful will, calling it into his hand.
Feng Lin discovered that the effects of this Measureless Divine Metal Cudgel were similar to the Ruyi Golden Cudgel. They were both inherited from ancient ruins.
This Measureless Divine Metal Cudgel definitely had some kind of close connection with the Ruyi Golden Cudgel. This was why it could sense the Great Sage Will and resonate with it.
In the end, Feng Lin still had the advantage of the Great Sage Will.
As for the exact truth, Feng Lin couldn't figure it out even after thinking about it for a long time. He would have to find out more in the future.
Feng Lin held onto the Measureless Divine Metal Cudgel. With a single thought, it rapidly shrank in his palm, turning into an embroidery needle.
Just as he was about to place it in his ear, he retracted his hand resentfully. He wasn't a monkey!
Feng Lin changed the Measureless Divine Metal Cudgel again, shrinking it into a ring and wearing it on his index finger. It was neither too big nor too small, fitting perfectly with the flying shuttle ring.
Opening up the folded space, the Flowerfruit Mountain flying shuttle once again appeared on the surface of the sea. Feng Lin entered it and controlled the flying shuttle, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
He left in a carefree manner, but he didn't know that a huge commotion had already broken out on Earth.
It was unknown why Japan suddenly strongly criticized Hua Xia. A powerful cultivator with the surname Sun had stolen the Divine Pillar of Japan, causing Japan to continue sliding toward the Great Mariana Trench. The five to six hundred million Japanese were in a precarious situation, and the country was in a state of panic. They wanted Hua Xia to quickly hand over the cultivator with the surname Sun and return the Divine Pillar of Japan.
Hua Xia was well-versed in the dao of taichi and naturally wouldn't admit it no matter what. Both sides bickered, and neither side lowered their heads. The crux was that Japan didn't have any evidence at all. A mythological secret realm was completely destroyed, but they didn't even manage to catch the person.
The two countries bickered, and that cultivator with the surname Sun became famous. Countless people were guessing who he was.
To think that he could make Japan suffer such a great loss!
As the instigator of all this, Feng Lin didn't pay any attention to this. He went to the second largest trench on Earth, the Tonga Trench, and continued to cultivate, avoiding all distractions.
In the blink of an eye, over twenty days passed!
Feng Lin opened his eyes at the bottom of the 15000 meters deep trench. His essence qi was retracted, and a qualitative change was happening in his body.
His new attributes were as follows:
Name: Feng Lin
Vitality: 218
Primeval Gene: Stone Monkey Gene x10; Spirit Gene x10
Basic Gene: Monkey Gene x10; Stonebirth Gene x10; Adrenaline Gene x1; Mental Gene x9; Psychokinesis Gene x6; Spirituality Gene x8
Genetic Potential: 2,988%
After so many days of cultivation, his vitality had broken through the 200 mark, increasing from 208 to 218. There wasn't much change.
It was just that his Stone Monkey Gene and Spirit Gene had been maxed out, but he didn't know why he still couldn't evolve to the Spiritual Stone Monkey Gene.
Feng Lin was also puzzled. After pondering for a long time, he finally found the answer from the Sun Wukong myth.
As his cultivation realm got higher, the requirements for the evolution of mythological genes became increasingly harsh. He had to fulfill the corresponding requirements.
The Spiritual Stone Monkey Gene was something that had absorbed countless years of essence from the sun and moon, becoming an immortal fetus. It was born from a rock and possessed powerful innate talent.
If he wanted to awaken the Spiritual Stone Monkey Gene, he had to understand the crux of it. The evolution of the gene would bring about a qualitative change.
The records of myths and legends were very concise and comprehensive. Knowing about myths and legends didn't mean that you understood them. You had to comprehend the essence of the myths and legends first.
It was a pity that a month's time was too short. The second round of examinations for the Cosmos University was about to begin, and Feng Lin didn't have much time to waste.
He didn't have many regrets. His vitality had reached 218 and wasn't inferior to ordinary elite cultivators.
For the second round of examinations, he had to succeed no matter what.
A breakthrough in cultivation had to be done steadily and surely. There was no need to rush it.
Seeing that the registration time was almost up, Feng Lin kept the flying shuttle back into his folded space and suddenly soared into the air, heading toward the Huaxia region.
Feng Lin was no longer the same as before. His abilities had all improved, and his flying speed was incomparably fast. He was no longer climbing the clouds in the past. Instead, he was like a bolt of lightning arcing across the sky.
