Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

"What the hell is going on?" Lin Shen was a bit speechless.

Fortunately, the solidified fruit pulp didn't cause any harm to his body. Instead, he could feel a very subtle energy continuously secreted from the solidified pulp, seeping into his skin.

This energy was quite peculiar, feeling very weak and small in quantity. It seemed to be consumed once it penetrated not very far inside.

The feeling was like applying a slightly cold face mask, where the coolness was neutralized by the blood's temperature beneath the skin.

Of course, Lin Shen felt not only the coolness but also a slight tingling, as if there were weak electric currents.

Xiaoye couldn't explain what was happening either, and they couldn't stay there any longer, so they had to keep moving forward.

Lin Shen was somewhat depressed, wearing this thing on his face; how would he meet people in the future?

Going out was fine, but at home, he couldn't always keep this thing on; who knew if his daughter would still recognize him.

The Scrap Sword was only halfway sharpened and not completely finished. The blade's first third had just been edged, but the further back part hadn't been sharpened much, so only the front could be considered sharp, while the back was merely polished and not even edged.

He originally planned to continue sharpening after eating the pulp, but who would've thought the hard fruit shell would turn so soft and rotten once the pulp inside leaked out, and it started to stink.

There was no way it could be used to sharpen a knife any longer; it was completely deformed.

There was no choice but to find something else later to fully edge the Scrap Sword, for now, he just had to make do with it.

Luckily, he hadn't used a knife much recently, as Finger Sand combined with the Super-Base Divine Shot was far more effective and simpler to use. As someone who liked to take it easy, Lin Shen didn't fancy using the complex blade techniques for fighting.

Following the arrow's direction, they ventured into the depths of the sea of flowers, where a mountain appeared ahead, like a screen.

Lin Shen and the others had never seen such a thin yet tall mountain, spanning several thousand meters high, and possibly tens of thousands of meters long horizontally. Yet, the mountain's thickness was mostly just a few meters, and at most ten-plus meters in the thickest parts.

Depictions were carved upon that mountain wall, rows of small human figures, each with different actions.

"The fourth test question—Untitled: This is the last question, comprehend the Untitled Divine Skill on the Wall Mountain and break through it to pass the test, thereby receiving all inheritances of the Realm King Planet."

The strange voice from the sky rang again, and Lin Shen and others couldn't help but look at the small human figures on the mountain wall.

These small human figure drawings were countless, filling the entire mountain wall.

Each small human drawing was only palm-sized. Such a large Wall Mountain covered with rows of these small figures, each with different actions—if this was a kind of divine skill, then it was too complex.

Moreover, there were no words, just the small human figures; could such a divine skill be comprehended purely from these drawings?

Lin Shen couldn't help but think of Stepping on the Immortal Court, which seemed similar. But from what he observed initially, the small human figures on the Wall Mountain did not match the movements of Stepping on the Immortal Court nor had continuity.

Furthermore, the movements in Stepping on the Immortal Court were fewer, even more so after Lin Shen simplified them.

Ouyang Yudu and the others were also intently studying the small human figures on the mountain wall, even Xiaoye and Xiaona widened their eyes to look.

Since there was no time limit, they didn't need to be anxious.

"Have you noticed, these small humans seem like some kind of word?" Di Esi remarked as he observed the drawings.

"What word? Do you recognize it?" Lin Shen asked.

"I don't recognize it... but we might try deciphering it..." Di Esi mused, "Although it appears each small human's action is different, quite a few actions are very similar. It's possible those similar actions are just written differently, like the character '之' in calligraphy that has many styles, but the character remains the same. Using this as a reference and combining the small humans' actions, demeanor, and expressions, perhaps we can unravel the meaning of these 'words.'"

"I think it might not be that simple. These small humans resembling characters might be a guide leading us to a wrong judgment," Ouyang Yudu pointed to the end of the mountain wall, "I've looked roughly; if you start from the front, the actions are awkward and don't connect well. However, going from the end backward, they do connect. Of course, I just checked the beginning and end; whether the middle connects needs further validation."

The group looked again at what Ouyang Yudu pointed out. Indeed, if you started with the last small human figure and practiced backward, it became very smooth.

"Intent... weight..." Wei Wufu, who had been silently watching the small human figures on the mountain wall, suddenly spoke up, saying two words.

His point was clear to Lin Shen and the others, indicating that the essence these small human figures convey should be about the intent, and the actions themselves weren't that important.

Everyone turned their gaze to Lin Shen, seemingly waiting for his judgment as to who was more reliable among them.

Lin Shen smiled and said, "I think these actions might inherently be some form of divine skill. How about we verify separately, each testing our own theories, and as long as one of us masters it, we pass."

"Okay." Ouyang and the other two nodded in unison and went off to research individually.

Xiaona and Xiaoye exchanged curious glances at the group, Xiaona spoke up, "What are these people thinking? Why do they all seem strange?"

Xiaoye fixed her gaze on the three researching individuals and transmitted sound to Xiaona, "These three have remarkable abilities and talents, achievements in the future might be boundless. If they could be used by him, they'd be great helpers, provided he can keep them in line, else they could become major threats."

By 'him,' Xiaoye naturally meant Lin Shen.

"Their relationship with Dad is so good, they should be helping him, right? How could they become a threat?" Xiaona also transmitted back.

"The human heart is fickle, especially since the position of Cosmic Supreme isn't predetermined for anyone; everyone can vie for it, right and wrong can't be easily judged. Their talents are indeed fearsome, they might very well obstruct his ascent to the absolute peak," Xiaoye transmitted.

"What should we do? Should we imprison them before they grow into a threat to Dad?" Xiaona looked fiercely at them.

"Don't let your gaze betray us; with his current demeanor, he likely wouldn't allow us to act, and now isn't the right time," Xiaoye glanced at the Wall Mountain, "Use the divine skill on Wall Mountain as the test. If he's the first to comprehend the correct divine skill, it shows his talent and abilities surpass those three, and we needn't worry. But if any of those three perceives it before him, no matter how he feels about us, we must act swiftly to eliminate them, ensuring no hidden dangers remain. In this cosmos, there can only be one supreme being, and it must be him."
