nCold as water, scorching as fire.
nThe moment the potion of life entered his stomach, there was an ice-cold energy surging as if he had just drunk the icy spring water. It felt gratifying and refreshing. However, as the medicine took effect, it turned into a completely scorching feeling. It felt boiling, like magma seething in his body.
nFeng Lin’s expression became distorted and he felt his entire body burning up as if it was blazing into ashes, leaving nothing behind.
nIntense heat waves brought about huge impacts from the inside.
nThere was only one thought left on his mind. With such violent medicinal effects, it was no wonder that this was a medicine that was used only by cultivators. Ordinary people couldn’t take it at all. They would really explode…
nExcruciating pain came again and again like tidal waves, challenging Feng Lin’s nerves and tolerance level, wanting to drown him into an endless stretch of darkness.
nFeng Lin couldn’t afford to let his mind wander anymore. He quickly calmed down and focused, sitting down on the ground, sensing the changes to his body in great detail while bearing with the agony.
nThe medicinal effects were like heat currents, penetrating and seeping into all parts of his body.
nFeng Lin felt as if he were a sturdy and unchanging piece of tough metal that was being grilled on strong fire, tempered incessantly and having the impurities removed.
nAll of the vital energy and blood in his body were seething, circulating crazily. His green veins popped up and his face turned flushed red. It was as if he were on a stove. It felt extremely hot.
nHa!
nHe suddenly opened his mouth and spewed out seething hot air, giving himself a fright. He almost thought that he had become a fire-spewing dragon.
nHot, hot, hot!…
nSweat kept flowing down, drenching his clothes and causing them to stick closely onto his body.
nViolent energies kept raging in his body like tidal waves. Feng Lin was worried that his body was going to burst.
nPain, pain, pain!
nIt felt as if there wasn’t a spot on his body that wasn’t in pain.
nFeng Lin gritted his teeth, and his entire body trembled intensely. The feeling was as though all of his organs on the inside had been crushed and then reassembled, presenting a state that was even more perfect and reasonable.
nThere can be no construction without destruction!
nThis was a process of destruction followed by construction.
nUnlike the cultivation process where one slowly changed their bodies to go through a life transformation, the changes brought by medicine were instant and immediate. The violent medicinal effects were crushing up his body’s structure brutally and then reassembling them at rapid speed.
nThe intense changes also meant that there would be an enormous pain.
nFeng Lin felt as if his consciousness was blurring slowly, drowned by waves of agony.
nHowever, the more this was so, the more he would need to hold on.
nThings might just be over with if he fainted. He might become completely free and relieved. However, he could only control the medicinal effects by maintaining his consciousness, allowing the transformation to be applied in the right places and maximizing the effects.
nCrackle crackle!
nHe lowered his head, gritting his teeth so hard that crackling sounds were released. It was as if they were going to shatter.
nBreath in… breath out… breath in… breath out…
nFeng Lin felt as if he was going to suffocate soon, and he started gasping for air. All the pores on his body opened up, digesting the scorching energies brought by the potion of life.
nIn the end, the hot currents flowed through every corner and gradually seeping into the deepest part of his body.
nOrgans, cells, cell nuclei… They seeped through many layers, from a wider perspective to a closer one, and then all the way to the genes!
nFrom inside to the outside, Feng Lin’s body emitted a series of red light that was as clear and dark as blood.
nWith the disappearance of the hot currents, Feng Lin could faintly see a scene he was used to.
nThis was a dark world that was as vast as the universe. Many substances that were like snakes or dragons were tangled together, presenting an upward spiral form. Some parts of it were emitting light, sometimes bright and sometimes dark as if they were the countless stars in the sky.
nThese were genes!
nHe had to say that this was an extremely amazing scene.
nAlthough Feng Lin was able to see the distribution of the genes in his body with the reliance of genetic equations, this was the first time he could see the true forms of genes from the microscopic perspective with his own eyes.
nA series of warm currents were like the ocean currents on the Pacific Ocean that flowed from the south toward the north, suddenly flowing into this dark space.
nMany sections of the genes that had originally been dark and weren’t emitting light suddenly burst out in great light, presenting a glow that was like that of the stars. They were pure, mysterious, ancient… the bringer of great astonishment.
nThe light became increasingly brighter, like how small sparks could burn an entire stretch of plains. More and more of them gathered, rapidly spreading out throughout the entire dark space.
nThe genes that were activated continued to split, controlling the different combinations of nutrients, cells reproduction, organs proliferation… Various parts of the body kept being modified, going through an intrinsic life transformation.
nStrange scenes passed by with a flash. He saw the process of the medicine taking effect, modifying his body.
nKacha Kacha!
nHis joints kept crackling; his organs started to become agitated. They were like loud thunder, like the heavy rainstorm, like the strong tempest…
nFeng Lin curled up his body without realizing it. His body was going through a transformation, his muscles bulging and some imprints appeared. Layers of keratin started to form on his skin, just like shiny white marble that was smooth yet tough.
nHe had no idea how long had passed before this intense pain started to subside gradually.
nFeng Lin slowly stood up and realized that he seemed to become like a clay figure, covered in perspiration and blood. He felt very sticky and uncomfortable.
nHe suddenly felt very different. His vision became very strange. It was as if he was walking on heels where everything before him had become a little shorter…
nHe moved slightly and his clothes instantly burst apart.
nCould it be…?
nFeng Lin quickly took a selfie with his identity microchip. Only then did he discover his body’s transformation.
nHis height had surged up to 1.9 meters from 1.8 meters. His battered clothes revealed chunks of study, toned, and streamlined muscles. His fair skin emitted a faint glow, just like pure white ivory.
nThis was a form that could be described as perfection!
nEven when displaying his overflowing strength, his speed wouldn’t have trouble keeping up. His body was straight and upright like a spear as he stood there with a vigorous and aggressive disposition.
nWithout a doubt, Feng Lin knew that a huge change had gone on in his body. He quickly checked his gene attributes.
n=======
nName: Feng Lin
nVitality: 2.3
nMonkey Gene: 10
nStonebirth Gene: 8
nGenetic Potential: 178%
n=======
nHis potential didn’t increase and neither was his genetic strengthening tally.
nHowever, his vitality index had gone through a change, breaking through 2 and reaching 2.3.
nFeng Lin was now the top of his class without a doubt. He had surpassed that Zhao Kai both in terms of his powers and his vitality.
nIt could be said that with Feng Lin’s battle instincts, that Zhao Kai would be stepped firmly under his feet, with no hope of reprieve.
nHowever, Feng Lin no longer cared about Zhao Kai. Zhao Kai wasn’t fit to be his opponent. Feng Lin only could only compare with himself.
nAfter his vitality had broken through to 2.0, his body went through a huge change.
nFeng Lin calmly sensed the exuberant energy that filled up his body. Even if he didn’t sleep for three days and three nights, he wouldn’t feel tired at all. Endless amount of energy filled up his muscles.
nHe couldn’t help but become excited. That brain analysis in the illusory martial pagoda wasn’t wrong. His genetic potential hadn’t been completely stimulated.
nAfter drinking the potion of life and replenishing the nutrients in his body, his vitality surged immediately.
nAlthough he had a strong urge to drink another bottle, his rational mind stopped him.
nThe potion of life was too domineering and would put on too great of a stress onto his body. He shouldn’t drink more of it in the short term.
nAfter all, every medicine had its toxicity.
nEven great nourishing medicine had a high level of toxicity if one over-consumed them!
nThus, His body still needed to have a good rest.
nRegardless, the transformation had brought his vitality to 2.3. He was definitely not a weakling anymore. Feng Lin was now even more confident on his cultivation path.
nNow, he would have to solve the pressing situation immediately. It was time for him to have an official negotiation with his family!
