Chapter 306: Breaking the Genetic Shackles, Double Pupil of The Void, Enhanced Abilities (I)

The Thunder Beast developed this second-generation conversion rune after studying its own throat structure and making micro-adjustments to the original rune. It had promised to help, and it would not go back on its word.

Next was the Nine-headed Serpent. This creature already had a very comprehensive set of innate abilities, so the Thunder Beast only taught it a basic rune for durability. When inscribed on its scales, the rune would enhance its defense. If it could inscribe runes over its entire body, the tens of thousands of rune-covered scales would create an impenetrable defense.

Of course, achieving this would take decades. For now, its task was to inscribe the runes on the scales of its nine necks to protect its weak points.

As for the Silver Colossal Dragon, it was still working hard to condense its constraint field. Teaching one at a time was sufficient, and other lessons could be considered once they had mastered these.

Squeak, squeak, squeak!

Seeing that the Thunder Beast seemed to have forgotten them, the female orca called out in a series of squeaks. The three little orcas wagged their tails continuously, looking at it eagerly like little puppies.

Roar! You three little ones are too low in level to cultivate. When you break through to level 7, I\'ll teach you. As for you... right, what is your innate ability?

The Thunder Beast looked at the female orca, who had reached level 7 long ago but had always been inconspicuous, feeling a bit puzzled. It had never seen this orca use any innate abilities.

Squeak, squeak, squeak!! Eat, crush.

The female orca opened her mouth wide and bit into the ice-covered ground, creating a twenty-meter-wide hole in an instant.

The ice crystals, condensed by a level 8 colossal beast\'s power, were effortlessly shattered by her sharp teeth and then swallowed into a vortex in her mouth, disappearing into another space.

The Thunder Beast fell silent and looked at the Kun currently shrinking back in fear, unsure of what to say.

No wonder this guy was so afraid of his wife. Anyone would be afraid of such a fierce spouse.

The devouring vortex and crushing abilities weren’t particularly strong on their own, and were close range rather than energy attacks. Together, however, they became immensely powerful. Overwhelmingly so, as it could devour any mutated creature below its level.

Despite spending her time looking after her children, the female orca\'s growth speed was almost as fast as the Kun\'s.

After some thought, the Thunder Beast decided to teach her the energy conversion rune, which would convert the devoured material into energy.

Crushing, devouring, and converting—combined, these abilities could exceed all the other beasts\' expectations.

In the audience seats, Chen Chu withdrew his attention from the secret scripture with a surge of excitement. However, due to his sunglasses, no one noticed.

He could now convert nearly 10,000 attribute points from Life Crystals. Even he couldn’t help but feel thrilled.

He had been cultivating for many years... well, actually, just over six months. From initially exchanging for a single level 1 Life Crystal, converting only a few attribute points, to now obtaining tens of thousands of attribute points in one go—the difference was enormous.

It seemed his decision to team up with the Single-horned Kun and other mutated beasts, and later establish the Dragon Palace, was absolutely correct.

Otherwise, even if he had mastered the method of spatial teleportation, there was no way he could have collected so many Life Crystals in just a few days. After all, no matter how strong the Thunder Beast was, it was still just one beast.

However, today\'s task was not yet complete; he would have to wait until the evening to take the time to condense the coordinate runes. After all of the benefits that he had gained, he had to take his task of protecting Yan Ruoyi seriously.

To deal with the soul avatars of the two king-level powerhouses, the Federation had provided two top-level secret scriptures worth 20,000 contribution points each. In addition, he also had a top-level secret art comparable to the secret scriptures from Qingqiu Minghui.

Indeed, that summoning secret art could also be considered part of the reward for this mission. If not for his role as Yan Ruoyi’s bodyguard, Qingqiu Minghui wouldn’t have sought him out for a fight, nor would he have easily allowed Chen Chu access to his family’s summoning secret art.

Such top-level secret arts, independently created by king-level powerhouses, weren’t even available in the Federation\'s database, as they involved that individual’s core power.

While Chen Chu watched the youthful and beautiful women dancing on stage, he also kept an eye on the colossal beasts as they cultivated. Time passed quickly, and soon it was half-past eleven. Xu Xiaoqi stood up and clapped her hands. "Everyone has worked hard. Let\'s take a break and prepare for lunch."

Xu Xiaoqi then walked onto the stage and handed a towel to Yan Ruoyi. "Great job, Ruoyi."

Yan Ruoyi wiped the sweat from her face, still flushed from the exercise. "I\'m fine. Actually, everyone else worked harder than me."

While she participated in the rehearsals, as the main star of the stage, her primary tasks were finding the rhythm and coordinating a few dance moves. Most of the time, she was singing.

Compared to her, the backup dancers who had been rehearsing choreography for over ten songs all morning were indeed more exhausted. Hearing Yan Ruoyi’s words, the fatigue on their faces seemed to diminish significantly, as they felt the recognition for their efforts.

Chen Chu then turned to Xu Xiaoqi. "Assistant Xu, does Miss Yan have any plans for this afternoon?"

Xu Xiaoqi replied, "This afternoon, Ruoyi has a fitting session. The concert opens tomorrow night, so we need to finalize the dresses and props she\'ll be using. Do you have something in mind, Brother Chu?"

Chen Chu shook his head. "No, I was just curious about the schedule."

Suddenly, Yan Ruoyi said, "Sister Xiaoqi, I’d like to read this afternoon. Let’s postpone the fitting until tomorrow morning."

"...Alright." Xu Xiaoqi was slightly taken aback, not understanding why Yan Ruoyi wanted to push back the confirmed schedule.

Chen Chu also paused slightly, feeling a bit surprised.

At the dining table shortly after, Chen Chu glanced at the small amount of food in front of Yan Ruoyi and Xu Xiaoqi, unable to contain his curiosity. "Don’t you feel hungry eating so little all day?"

Xu Xiaoqi shook her head. "Not at all. Don’t be fooled by the small portions, Mr. Chen. The calorie content in our meals is enough for the day."

In front of each of the two women was a small portion of rice, two hundred-gram[1] shrimp, a piece of meticulously cooked veal steak, and a serving of vegetables.

This was their lunch. It wasn’t even enough for someone like Chen Chu, a cultivator, and certainly not enough for his brother, who could devour it in a single bite. If Chen Hu were given such small portions every day, he would have already moved to the riverbank with his fishing rod and barbecue grill.

Thinking of this made Chen Chu a bit homesick, but he quickly suppressed the thought of calling home. No rush; this mission would only last a little over two months, just in time for the end of the semester.

At that moment, Li Daoyi, who had been wandering somewhere all morning, appeared carrying a large plate of stir-fried mutated beast meat and sat down at the table with the three of them.

Li Daoyi patted Chen Chu’s shoulder with a grin. "Brother Chen, thanks for your hard work this morning."

"It wasn’t too hard. But where did you disappear to this morning?" Chen Chu asked curiously.

"Nowhere special. Just building some rapport with the staff and making a few new friends, hehe. I discovered the women in Qingshan City are so gentle and pleasant to talk to."

Chen Chu paused slightly. "...How many red envelopes did you give out this morning?"

"Not much, just a few tens of thousands."

"As long as you’re happy." Chen Chu nodded. A few tens of thousands of yuan a day was equivalent to the value of killing a level 2 mutated creature, which indeed wasn’t much.
