Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Lin Shen charged into the cave and immediately felt an intense chill.

Evolution Theory ran wildly, so the cold had little effect on him; once he activated Super Base Pattern, Super-Base Recast, and Super Base Form, the effect was almost negligible.

However, due to the dense black qi, Lin Shen could only grope his way forward.

Fortunately, there were no forks within the cave, so there was no need to worry about choosing the wrong path.

He hadn't gone far when he suddenly felt a surge of black qi behind him, and a strong fluctuation of strength came from the direction of the cave entrance.

"How did they come in so fast? Is it the Ghost King or the Ghost Queen?" Lin Shen was startled and quickly turned to look back.

He saw the black qi at the entrance of the cave rolling back like waves, then a shadowy figure burst through in the swirling black qi.

"What the hell is that?" Lin Shen saw the Asura Ghost merged into one and his eyes widened.

Before he could react, he saw his Asura Ghost's dual swords move simultaneously, and two streaks of Blade Qi slashed towards Lin Shen.

One Blade Qi was as black as ink; the other was invisible, but as it passed through the black qi in the cave, it silently sliced through the qi like a paper cutter.

Lin Shen instinctively drew his Scrap Sword, its blade facing the black Blade Qi, and the scabbard meeting the invisible Blade Qi.

With the sawing effect of the Blade Qi, it didn't completely saw through, but the blade and the scabbard forcefully cut through the Asura Ghost's dual Blade Qi, causing Lin Shen himself to be pushed back two steps by the formidable strength.

With the Ghost Shield in the hands of the Asura Ghost flashing red, Lin Shen suddenly felt his body grow heavy and clearly felt his strength and skill effects being affected.

Facing the Asura Ghost's relentless slashing of dual swords, waves of Blade Qi flying at him, Lin Shen could only wildly brandish his dual swords, countering the Blade Qi with Bloodlife Blade Skill.

As his strength was weakened, though he cut through the Blade Qi with his Scrap Sword, Lin Shen was still pushed back repeatedly, continually forced deeper into the cave.

The Asura Ghost's sword strikes became faster and faster, the Blade Qi quicker and quicker, leaving Lin Shen struggling to keep up, having to explosively unleash his skills to bolster his own strength to block all the Blade Qi coming from the Asura Ghost.

With each clash, Lin Shen was pushed further back, his hands swinging so fast that they could barely keep up with the Asura Ghost's slashing speed.

Lin Shen suddenly realized something, why was he even trying to block the Asura Ghost's Blade Qi?

His body's durability was so formidable that it didn't fear the Blade Qi at all, why waste the effort?

Thinking this, Lin Shen utterly gave up on blocking the Asura Ghost's Blade Qi, letting both the black and the invisible Blade Qi strike his body.

Clang! Clang!

Lin Shen's body was cleaved towards the deeper parts of the cave, but he didn't sustain a single wound; he was only propelled by the powerful force.

Strikes of Blade Qi hit him one after the other, continuously slicing him towards the deeper parts of the cave.

Lin Shen sheathed his Scrap Sword and shifted his backpack to the front, and, turning his back to the Asura Ghost, he let the Asura Ghost's Blade Qi strike his back, using that powerful force to rush deeper into the cave, then rolling forward.

The listless Lin Shen actually moved faster into the deeper part of the cave, with the Asura Ghost relentlessly pursuing him, slashing frantically.

Di Esi and Bing Leiya charged in against the cold, using the Power of Nirvana to forcefully compete with the chill.

However, the harsh coldness here wasn't a power emanating from the Asura Ghost; instead, it came from the natural forces of Ghost Gate Star. Even they found it difficult to contend with the might of nature.

Just over two hundred meters in, they could already feel their bodies becoming almost frozen stiff.

"Damn it... Why is this chill even worse than the last time I came in... Last time, I made it four or five hundred meters before feeling like this..." Bing Leiya shuddered as he charged further in.

"Yield we must be catching up." Di Esi also felt his body trembling, and his Power of Nirvana was hardly a match for the icy chill in the cave, feeling like knives were drilling into his bones.

But hearing the continuous crashing sounds ahead, Di Esi had no choice but to push forward, hoping to find Lin Shen before the Asura Ghost killed him, and stop the Asura Ghost.

Even if they couldn't get the Pet Eggs, at least they needed to save their own lives.

However, the further forward they went, the colder it got; at five or six hundred meters in, their bodies began to stiffen, cells nearly halting their functions, bodies almost turning into ice sculptures.

"No... Can't go on... We need to get out... or we'll lose our lives..." Bing Leiya could no longer hold on, his entire body covered in frost, his Carapace and the Power of Nirvana unable to withstand the terrifying extreme cold.

"You go out first; I'll check further inside." Di Esi, hearing the collision sounds getting more intense, knew Lin Shen wasn't dead yet, and continued to force his way inside.

"I... I... need to get out... I'm really about to die..." Bing Leiya, who couldn't hold on any longer, turned around and ran towards the cave entrance.

When he got out of the cave, he leapt up at once, flying to the mountainside beside, collapsing on the ground, curling up and shivering uncontrollably, his carapace covered in frost.

Everyone was greatly shocked; seeing Bing Leiya in this state, they feared those inside were more likely dead than alive.

Di Esi charged into the cave despite the cold, his radiance growing increasingly intense, like a powerful spotlight piercing through the dense black smoke.

Yet, his pace slowed, and his holy radiance dimmed.

The chill from the black smoke was just too intense; even though Di Esi gave everything he had, he could only move this fast.

Suddenly, the sounds ahead ceased, with no more movement at all.

Di Esi thought Lin Shen was finished and let out a long sigh, turning towards the cave's exit.

After he burst out of the cave, he also leapt up at once, landing on a nearby mountain peak.

His body seemed fine at first, but as soon as he stopped, a large amount of black air burst from his body, quickly forming a thick layer of black ice around him, growing thicker by the moment. In the blink of an eye, an ice peak formed around Di Esi's body as the center.

The reason Di Esi could charge so far in was by forcefully using his talent and various Secret Techniques; his body had accumulated a large amount of cold, ghostly air.

After coming out, he forcefully converted these cold airs, struggling to expel them all in one go.

Feng Feitian and Huang Feiwu looked at each other, glad they hadn't challenged the Asura Ghost again. Given the situation, there must've been some new anomaly inside the cave. The terrifying cold had turned Bing Leiya and Di Esi into such states; if they had entered, their fate wouldn't have been any better.

Besides, there was still a terribly powerful Asura Ghost. It was essentially a situation with little to no chance of survival.

"Di Esi and Bing Leiya are both out now. Looking at their condition, they probably couldn't stop the Asura Ghost. The person who went in earlier is likely dead."

"Who would have thought not only is there another Asura Ghost Queen in the cave, but they could also Merge. Not even Di Esi, Bing Leiya, or the Phoenix Clan's powers could match them. It seems we can only wait for daylight when the black smoke in the cave weakens, by then there might be a chance to charge in and snatch the Pet Eggs."
