Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Every world never lacked haughty idiots who looked down on the weaker ones. These people committed homicide as if others were ants under their feet.

Evidently, Ling Jiu had met them today.

He had obviously done nothing.

He had obviously never met them before.

He had obviously never messed with them.

Yet, they somehow wanted to kill him!

What were they if not idiots?

Had it not been for my strength, I would have died for nothing today!

Ling Jiu lamented in his mind. He hated these two people in the vehicle. They were the idiots.

“What-What are you trying to do?”

The middle-aged woman shivered, her face pale. “We come from the Yang family of Chang’an Base City. This lady here is Yang Yushan, the daughter of Yang’s fourth wife. The Yangs would not let you go unpunished if you dare to hurt her!”

“The Yang family?”

Ling Jiu burst into laughter. “What a small world! A guy with the surname Yang messed with me two days ago. And now another Yang wanted to kill me. Interesting!”

“Who are you, really?”

Yang Yushan turned to look at Ling Jiu.

“What is your relationship with Yang Yuting?”

Ling Jiu asked back without answering the question.

“He is my elder brother!”

Yang Yushan said coldly.

“I see. No wonder you are a retard. It turns out that you are the younger sister of a retard!”

Ling Jiu nodded slightly. “I am blaming you for what Yang Yuting had done to me. You are going to die today simply because you have wanted to kill me. It has nothing to do with him!”

“Kill me? I dare you!”

Yang Yushan’s expression changed. “If you dare to touch me—”

Squish!

Before Yang Yushan could finish, a rock punctured her forehead. Her pupils dilated as she looked at Ling Jiu in disbelief.

“My-My lady! You killed the lady?” The middle-aged woman’s face pale.

“So what if she is from the Yangs? The one I killed is you people, the Yangs! I will not hesitate to kill anyone if the Yangs dare to mess with me again!”

After speaking, Ling Jiu disappeared from the cabin. The maglev MPV flew forward after losing control before crashing into a mountain with a violent explosion.

“Are I and the Yangs destined to clash? Or is it the Yangs are the hateful ones?”

Looking at the firework of the explosion of the maglev MPV, Ling Jiu spat, “No matter what, I hate this family!”

Ling Jiu checked the micro PC he took down from the vehicle. If he had not misheard it, Yang Yushan had mentioned something about the Snowdragon Bile.

What was that?

After a long while, Ling Jiu broke out in a smile.

The Snowdragon Bile: an intermediate-level treasure of heaven and earth. Growing on high altitude terrains like this snowy mountain, it can enhance Gene Arcana. A rough estimate is that a Snowdragon Bile could enhance Gene Arcana by 5 years.

“Five years of Gene Arcana!

“What difference does it have from the internal strength-enhancing elixirs mentioned in the martial art novels?

“I need to find it!

“I must find it!”

Ling Jiu was excited. If he could find a Snowdragon Bile, he could very well attain Level 4 in his cultivation in the shortest time.

He quickly browsed through the photos in the micro PC and compared them with the surrounding environment to start his investigation.

Not long after, Ling Jiu had zoomed in to the location of the Snowdragon Bile. Without wasting more time, he quickly headed toward it.

Half an hour later, he came to a remote dead ground on the northern slope of the snowy mountain. There, he found a few feces-like black stuff.

“Are these things the Snowdragon Biles?

Ling Jiu squatted down, carefully examining the black ‘feces’ as he compared them with the photos on the monitor screen.

They looked like mushrooms, black, their bodies made up of intertwining black silks. At about 1.2 inches in diameter, they looked like umbrellas. There were countless miniature scales on the surfaces, their roots as red as blood, even the rocks where they grew on also the same bloody red.

“Everything matches perfectly!”

“These-These are the Snowdragon Biles!”

“One, two... five!”

“There are five! Five!”

Ling Jiu’s eyes brightened up. “I am rich! I am rich this time! The price of a Snowdragon Bile is four billion dollars. There are five here, and that is 20 billion dollars!”

“Pluck them all and get the hell out of here!”

Ling Jiu checked what he needed to be aware of in harvesting the Snowdragon Bile. When he harvested them, he dug them out together with the rock where they grew on.

After that, he left at once.

...

It was nearing last light when Ling Jiu came to Linyou County 60 miles away.

Linyou County was surrounded by mountains, which completely encircled the little county town.

Various plants grew in the county town. As this vegetation had formed a unified area with the vegetation in the mountain, it was hard to notice Linyou County from above.

It was said that Linyou County was the most secret place in Hua Country.

The purpose of Ling Jiu’s coming to Linyou County was simple: Direbeast hunting.

He had just come out for a short while and was no in a hurry to go back. As Taibai Mountain and even the area around the Qin Mountains were no longer safe, the secretive Linyou County was the most suitable place.

“I will put up a night here. Tomorrow, I will continue to hunt the Direbeasts!”

Ling Jiu found a shop hidden under the vegetation and used the osmium soil to seal the surroundings. After making sure that it was safe, he took out the five Snowdragon Biles.

“A Snowdragon Bile could enhance Gene Arcana by five years. Let me take one to see how good it is.”

Thinking of this, he chose the thickest, biggest, and blackest Snowdragon Bile and swallowed it entirely.

One minute. Five minutes. Ten minutes. Twenty minutes had passed, yet the Snowdragon Bile had still not produced any effect.

“Did I just eat a fake Snowdragon Bile?”

Just when Ling Jiu was quietly in doubt, warm energy suddenly rose within him. Starting from the abdomen, it spread in all directions. His body started to heat up.

The lower abdomen, middle abdomen, upper abdomen...

The chest, neck, brain...

At last, it was the legs and hands.

At the same time, Ling Jiu felt a pure and vast amount of Gene Arcana appear in his lower abdomen and spread to his limbs.

He was shocked and quickly performed a Feast of Taotie to absorb this pure Gene Arcanum.

Obviously, this was the purest Gene Arcanum. It rushed into his body and combined with his own Gene Arcanum until they became one.

Ling Jiu had lost track of time. When the process ended and he regained his consciousness, his perception felt unprecedentedly clear, his body was energized, and his legs, hands, and muscles strong, as if there was limitless energy.

What excited Ling Jiu most was the shrinking of the Gene Arcanum to less than one-tenth before. This was not because the Gene Arcanum had reduced, but because it had liquified.

“Liquified Gene Arcanum. I am a Level 4 Arcanist through-and-through!”

He could feel his arcana’s radiative range had increased. He could manipulate the gravity and earth within a hundred-yard radius.

“Liquified Gene Arcanum!”

“One hundred yard radius of arcanum radiation!”

“I am a Level 4 Arcanist now!”

Ling Jiu clenched his fists to feel the unlimited energy and fully charged Gene Arcanum in his body. He was excited.

Level 4 Arcanists were the defining line between intermediate-level and advanced-level Arcanists.

The stronger the arcana were, the more damaging the power was. A Level 4 Arcanist could destroy an entire battalion of fully-armed army. So it was also known as the Thousand Kills.

Yup.

The Thousand Kills.

“With my current level of strength, I am considered a top figure in Lantian Base City already!”

“I suppose the company should promote me to an important post once I return.”

Ling Jiu mumbled to himself. The arcana combine was a commercial enterprise, but it was also an arcana institution, where strength was always the priority.

The higher the strength, the higher the position and authority. This was something no one could dispute.

There were few Level 4 Arcanists in the Pangu Arcana Combine of Lantian Base City. A figure like Luo Jia, the general manager, was only a Level 5 Arcanist.
