Chapter 366: ?286?Third Rank Extraordinary-Human Genes Synthesis! (First Release, Seeking Monthly Pass)_1
Song Que drew his blade to chop down, but his expression suddenly changed.
Because the beast that was just hysterically shrieking in front of him once again flickered with light, and then vanished from its spot in an instant.
His blade cleaved through empty air.
He was somewhat bewildered.
He lifted his knife and rushed at Huang Tianqiang.
“Where the hell is my meat?”
Scared witless, Huang Tianqiang’s legs went weak, and he scrabbled away, clawing at the ground in a desperate crawl.
But soon he was kicked over onto the ground by Song Que.
“Where the hell is my meat?”
He asked fiercely once again.
“What meat?” Huang Tianqiang’s voice trembled with fright.
Suddenly, a dragon’s roar came from the sky, not too far from Song Que. The wind from the sound wave made his clothes flutter noisily.
His mind was also a bit muddled.
Seeing this, Huang Tianqiang got up and ran.
“Song dog, just wait until my brother Tiansheng comes back, he will see to it that you pay with your life!”
“Pfft!”
A streak of sword light flashed.
With a look of enraged embarrassment, Huang Tianqiang’s face turned to disbelief, and after staggering forward a few steps, his headless corpse thunderously fell to the ground.
Song Que was also stunned by this scene and looked up.
Pei Jinye came over with a calm expression, a look of pity on his face.
“Where did you go?”
“In the time it took to take a leak, couldn’t you have at least stopped that dragon in the sky?” Pei Jinye said regretfully, looking at the Rage Wing Dragon that was already taking flight high in the sky.
He had devoured Huang Tianbao’s Beast Master talent.
It was also from his memories that he knew the Rage Wing Dragon was Huang Tiansheng’s mount and only obeyed Huang Tiansheng’s commands.
That was really a pity.
Pei Jinye had originally planned to snatch away this Rage Wing Dragon.
Huang Tianbao’s potential might not be as great as Huang Tiansheng’s, but among the younger generation of the Huang Family, his status was not weak.
The Huang Family’s beast taming relied on hand signals.
The deeper the practice of these signals, the more powerful and the greater the number of fierce beasts one could control.
By comparison, Huang Tianbao’s potential did indeed fall short.
In his twenties, he could only barely control a B-Level fierce beast, relying on the beast taming whistle given by the strong members of his family.
Nothing like Huang Tiansheng, who, even though his current combat power is only at the peak of Extraordinary Fourth Rank, is just a step away from reaching Extraordinary Fifth Rank.
But now, he could already control an A level Rage Wing Dragon. Even though this Rage Wing Dragon was not yet mature, the combat power it could unleash was extremely powerful.
It was precisely for this reason that Huang Tiansheng’s comprehensive strength could be mentioned in the same breath as that of an Extraordinary Fifth Rank.
“This guy really is a bit troublesome, huh.”
Pei Jinye lowered his head, pondering strategies.
However, he had some understanding of members of the Huang and Lei Families who possessed Beast Master talents.
This time, both sides had sent a considerable number of Beast Masters.
Even though a portion hadn’t come with them, it seemed… it would still be enough to ascend a third rank.
Next was another murdering affair…
Pei Jinye reined in his gaze.
“Every man for himself, and the devil takes the hindmost.”
Song Que still didn’t know what Pei Jinye was thinking at the moment. He was just taken aback, wondering how his own bluster could have been taken seriously.
“Big brother, it’s not that I didn’t want to stay; it’s just that I couldn’t hold on.”
“Mediocrity is a sin,” Pei Jinye said, turning his head to leave directly.
Song Que opened his mouth, sighed, and chased after him.
The group that was just chewing on grass roots had scattered two-thirds of their number in the great battle. The remaining two were both injured, looking very ragged.
Song Que quickly walked over and caught up with Pei Jinye: “Where to next?”
“Find a place to rest for a bit.”
Pei Jinye said inscrutably.
Song Que didn’t ask any further, and the four of them found a natural rock wall in a valley where the injured sat down with Song Que’s help.
Pei Jinye sat in a corner with his eyes closed, seemingly dozing but actually studying his Extraordinary Abilities.
[New Extraordinary Ability: Variant Blood Individual has reached the synthesis standard for Third Rank. Would you like to merge?]
“Yes.”
The attribute panel displayed a vortex.
Like a sea of blood churning.
Not long after.
The panel displayed an update.
[Extraordinary-Human Genes: Crimson·Different Blood]
[New Extraordinary Ability 1: Mutated Immunity (Activation requires 20% less Vitality consumption)]
[New Extraordinary Ability 2: Summon White Bone General (The combat power of the White Bone General is on par with a Third Rank Extraordinary in the real world, and summoning duration depends on the consumption of Vitality)]
[New Extraordinary Ability 3: Blood Controlling (Can manipulate a certain amount of blood, including but not limited to one’s own)]
…
“Blood Controlling?”
Pei Jinye raised an eyebrow.
The line that caught his attention the most was the last one… [including but not limited to one’s own].
This meant that he had a chance during a life-and-death battle to pull off such a move; even if it didn’t kill the opponent, it could at least leave them in a bad state.
In the battles he had fought so far, he had encountered more and more skilled opponents, and in the blink of an eye, his life could hang by a thread.
“Triggering an explosion… that’s a study in itself.”
Pei Jinye lowered his gaze, skipping over the first extraordinary ability. A 20% reduction in Vitality consumption seemed quite standard at first glance.
But its true significance lay in combination with the second ability.
And the second extraordinary ability was the one that truly caught his attention.
Because it specified that the summoned White Bone General’s combat power would be on par with a Third Rank Extraordinary.
That meant he would have a Third Rank assistant.
Although not impressive compared to monsters like Ouyang Lianyi, it was enough to handle ordinary Transcendents.
Moreover…
Pei Jinye had come to understand that theoretically, his Extraordinary-Human Genes could be synthesized endlessly, which also meant that the combat power of the beings he summoned could be infinitely elevated.
A development that required no nurturing carried no burden for him.
It was merely a matter of Vitality consumption during summoning, but that could be alleviated by activating Mutated Immunity, which inherently reduced consumption by 20%.
“Too brutal…”
“What’s brutal?” Song Que leaned in and asked.
“Someone said they’d treat me to dragon meat,” Pei Jinye casually replied.
Song Que’s expression immediately became awkward. “Definitely next time, definitely.”
Pei Jinye glanced at him. “You said?”
“I said.”
Song Que, seeing no one from the Huang Family nearby and no Rage Wing Dragon in sight in the desolate wilderness for the time being, suddenly grew confident.
He patted his chest, his words earnest.
It was as if he couldn’t wait to slay a dragon right then and there, if only there were one nearby.
“A good housewife cannot cook without rice, such a pity.”
Pei Jinye just smiled.
He checked the time.
“Has she contacted you?”
Song Que knew he was referring to his mistress, and nodded, “She did.”
“What did she say?”
“She told me to be wary of you.”
…
Pei Jinye looked at him. “Are you serious?”
“I’m serious,” Song Que said, conflicted. “I don’t think you’re a bad guy, brother; you wouldn’t set me up.”
…
Pei Jinye’s gaze hardened, his voice calm, “Why would your mistress say something like that out of the blue? I haven’t provoked her, have I?”
Song Que glanced back at the others and whispered, “The miss said you have too much killing intent on you, and in this forsaken place, it might incite calamities.”
“?” Pei Jinye looked puzzled, “Is that so mystical?”
Song Que grinned sheepishly. “I understand what you’re thinking, but aren’t there enough mystical things in this world?”
Pei Jinye’s gaze hardened again.
That certainly made sense.
And Ouyang Lianyi… he really couldn’t figure her out.
What exactly did she know about him?
His previous tests, the matter of his being Multi-System Extraordinary, she definitely didn’t know about that.
If things were as expected, she probably considered him to be a martial arts prodigy… Since she could watch people’s Vitality pathways, she must have spotted him using this technique.
…
“It’s him, that’s the guy! The one who killed Huang Tianbao!”
At the entrance of the ravine, someone suddenly burst in; the young man with black hair who was previously chewing on roots, now with his hands tied, became excited when he saw Pei Jinye.
“I’ve told the truth, can I be let go now?”
