Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Chapter 275: Chapter 275: Prison King’s Eye

“Wow, that works too.” After Lin Shen closely examined the Super-Base Prison King’s Eye of Death Powder, he was overjoyed.

Super-Base Prison King’s Eye: Transforms Strength into the gaze of the Prison King at an efficiency rate of 120 percent; the gaze can bind opponents with an effective range of one thousand meters.

Previously, the Blood Prison King’s gaze didn’t even reach one thousand meters, and the conversion efficiency was certainly not at 120 percent. This ability had clearly been enhanced on Death Powder.

In the future, once Death Powder Ascends, with each reincarnation, the effect of the Prison King’s Eye would continue to grow stronger.

The only pity was that Death Powder’s current Strength Attribute was still quite low, so it could bind some lower-level creatures, but when facing powerful, high-level creatures, the binding effect of the Prison King’s gaze would not be as strong.

However, even if it was weak, it could still have some impact.

It’s like being bound with a rope. No matter how unreliable the rope is, it will still have some effect.

In the instant where life and death are fought for, a tiny mishap could lead to a different outcome, so the Prison King’s gaze was still useful. It’s just that its influence was relatively weak and not of much use except in critical moments.

Lin Shen was still very happy as this was a rare long-distance skill, and what’s more, it had an effective range of a kilometer.

Lin Shen had Death Powder show off the Prison King’s Eye, and above its head, a bloody eye opened unexpectedly, giving the originally eyeless creature a somewhat weird appearance.

The eye, like a flashlight, emitted blood-colored light that didn’t cover a very wide area.

This was also within Lin Shen’s expectations. The Blood Prison King had countless eyes in his palms, so after using the Prison King’s Eye, the range was quite extensive.

Death Powder had only grown this single eye, so it made sense that its range was small. Using it to bind a single organism wasn’t a problem, and it was considered sufficient.

“Small eyes concentrate light, no wonder the effect has become stronger,” Lin Shen said as he placed Death Powder back into the Angel Revolver.

No sooner had Lin Shen dealt with one glutton, than the awakened Fatty, not knowing when, crawled out of his backpack, stretching his neck to peck at the Base Mutation Pool like drinking water, gulping down the Base Mutation Liquid Essence into his stomach.

Lin Shen hurried over to hold him back, “Since we’re under someone else’s roof, let’s not get too wild for now.”

Seeing Fatty reluctantly looking at the Base Mutation Liquid in the pool, still eager to try.

Lin Shen had no choice but to feed him the remaining Mutant Base Mutation Fluid from his own bag, which calmed him down at last.

After eating his fill, Fatty went back into the backpack to sleep.

“Aside from sleeping, it’s just eating, damn it, they’re all like living ancestors,” Lin Shen grumbled as he returned to the Base Mutation Pool, feeling somewhat drained.

The Base Mutation rate reached 100 percent sooner than Lin Shen had anticipated.

Lin Shen got out of the Base Mutation Pool, got dressed, and pressed the button.

After waiting for a while, he didn’t see the elevator come down. He guessed that Tian Xun might not have expected him to come out so quickly and might have gone out, not having time to return.

With time being of the essence, Lin Shen didn’t want to waste any, so he started pondering over practicing the Twenty-Eight Fists.

To his frustration, Tian Xun hadn’t returned the notebook with the drawings of the Twenty-Eight Fists, and he couldn’t remember all of it, so he could only practice the moves he did remember.

Practicing these moves one by one, he eventually released Spatial Fist Power.

Lin Shen directed the Spatial Fist Power into the depths of the underground cavern and found the Fist Power of the Twenty-Eight Fists to be very unique.

Theoretically, no matter what kind of power it is, there will certainly be some loss during the process of passing through space.

However, the Twenty-Eight Fists seemed to be completely without consumption; after the Fist Power was released, regardless of whether it was one meter or one hundred meters, the destructive power of the Fist Power remained entirely the same, as if there were no loss at all.

“It shouldn’t be possible for there to be no consumption, right?” Lin Shen tried a few more punches, and the result was still the same, indeed there was no consumption.

“This is really freaking incredible, the Twenty-Eight Fists really have something special.” Lin Shen suddenly got excited.

Although he hadn’t discovered those advantages Tian Xun had mentioned, this characteristic of the Twenty-Eight Fists made Lin Shen think of another possibility.

“When I use the Overlapping Waves Skill, it is because of the great loss that the momentum can only be slowly accumulated, which is really not very efficient. If the Twenty-Eight Fists can achieve no loss and also allow for long-distance attacks, wouldn’t it be stronger to add the effects of the Overlapping Waves Skill to the Twenty-Eight Fists?” Lin Shen decided to act on the idea right away, as he was someone who liked new and exciting, wildly imaginative ideas.

However, adding the Overlapping Waves Skill to the Twenty-Eight Fists was obviously not a simple task.

The Overlapping Waves Skill itself required unique techniques and stances to lift wave after wave of force, and these were elements that could not be changed.

It’s like archery, you must have both a bow and arrows to be able to shoot, you can’t possibly shoot with empty hands.

Those techniques and stances are the bow and arrows of the Overlapping Waves Skill, they must be present in order to activate it.

The Twenty-Eight Fists also had its own moves and stances, but they didn’t seem to be so strict; even without some moves and stances, the Spatial Fist Power could still be launched.

So Lin Shen began his path of elimination, trying to identify those movements that could work together with the Overlapping Waves Skill, and also reducing the stances of the Overlapping Waves Skill as much as possible, hoping to merge the two into one.

As he practiced, Lin Shen suddenly realized he didn’t need to go through such trouble.

Why not just combine Stepping on the Immortal Court with the Twenty-Eight Fists? Stepping on the Immortal Court is a movement technique, and Twenty-Eight Fists is a punching skill, merging movement and punching skills together forms a complete combat skill, and the conflict shouldn’t be that big.

After actually beginning to try, he realized the combination of the two was not easy to achieve, and Lin Shen could only start by finding the non-conflicting points and from there, identify the parts that could merge.

Anyway, Lin Shen wasn’t a perfectionist, and those movements and skills that were not necessary, he simply discarded.

He just needed these characteristics to be sufficient; as for being perfect or not, that could wait for later.

Time ticked away second by second, and Lin Shen immersed himself wholeheartedly in this fascinating creation.

He had already fused Stepping on the Immortal Court and the Twenty-Eight Fists together, but because too many parts of both had been deleted and modified, the resulting skill appeared particularly crude, even to the point of being full of flaws.

Though it was very rudimentary, this skill indeed possessed simultaneously the characteristics of Stepping on the Immortal Court and the Twenty-Eight Fists: an ethereal and enigmatic movement, continuously accumulating force, externalized strength, and the feature of no consumption.

The Twenty-Eight Fists, which were said to possess supreme explosive power by Tian Xun, became completely unrecognizable in Lin Shen’s hands.

“No… that’s not right… it shouldn’t be this way…” Lin Shen suddenly realized the problem, why it always felt like the two just didn’t integrate well, leaving a somewhat unsatisfactory feeling.

His Twenty-Eight Fists were indeed practiced incorrectly; the ones he had been using all along were controlled in their power, whereas the true form of the Twenty-Eight Fists was a kind of explosive Fist Power.

Because he was inside a cave and afraid of damaging things, Lin Shen practiced very cautiously, not daring to fully release his power.

Stepping on the Immortal Court’s movement technique was also very unrestrained, and using it in such a restrained way also lost that kind of essence.

Once Lin Shen understood this, he knew why he had been feeling so awkward the whole time.
