Legend Of The Mythological Genes Chapter 177 - Avalanche in The Himalayas

His reservoir of spirit force grew vaster and turned corporeal. It was like gusts of wild wind permeating the region, affecting everything in the area. The snow and wind churned wildly, forming a revolving storm that emitted a whistling sound that was extremely terrifying.

When the strengthening tally of a gene was maxed out, this meant that your talent in this area had already reached the peak, but it wouldn’t necessarily maximize your abilities.

The law of energy conservation was the most basic law in the universe, and it couldn’t be shaken.

Even if one wanted to unleash their spirit force to the limit, how much energy could one body store?

Thus, Feng Lin had to constantly absorb the energy to strengthen his body before it was possible.

As he continued to absorb astral energy, his spirit force would constantly strengthen as well. It acted like a lever that could even lift the Earth, generating a natural storm.

Mental energy, psyforce, spirituality…

Feng Lin felt that the energy from his three basic genes was like an inflating balloon that continuously expanded. The astral energy in the surroundings was completely absorbed as a black hole appeared.

A stretch of darkness covered Mount Everest’s peak, and a snowstorm also manifested, churning violently.

The area around Feng Lin had completely transformed into a black hole that was devouring everything.

It was impossible for people to ignore such a shocking sight.

Human silhouettes appeared from all directions as they pointed up and mumbled among themselves, feeling extremely shocked in their hearts.

“What is this? Did something happen at the peak of Mount Everest?”

“I don’t know. Earlier, there seemed to be someone cultivating there. Could this be caused by him?”

“If that’s the case, what immense power is that? Is it a phenomenon caused by his cultivation? What genes did he awaken exactly? What genetic martial arts was he practicing?”

…

The crowd was confused and there were all sorts of speculations going on.

Staring at the devastating scene on the peak of the mountain, they felt a sense of apocalypse approaching. It was like a giant interstellar monster opening its huge maw wanting to devour this entire place.

Chaos erupted.

As the person who started this, Feng Lin actually didn’t notice all these smaller details. He was in a state of complete focus and could sense that the reservoir of genetic energy in his body grew vaster and vaster. He concentrated on fusing the three basic genes, transforming them into a flood of power augmented by astral energy as they gushed toward the Spirit Gene.

RUMBLE~

The entire s.p.a.ce was shaking. This rush of power slammed into the gene lock which was like st.u.r.dy iron walls.

BOOM! It seemed to be effective.

Feng Lin felt joy in his heart.

Absorbing astral energy was indeed an essential condition to stimulate the Spirit Gene.

His spirit seemed to be in a special state where he was one with the heavens as his genetic energy rapidly strengthened.

Upon seeing the possibility of shattering the gene lock, Feng Lin didn’t hesitate and did his best.

His pores were like tiny little mouths that continuously absorbed the astral energy. The starlight formed silvery lines of radiance that constantly flowed toward Feng Lin. After entering his body, they were transformed into incomparably pure, cooling, and refres.h.i.+ng energy that could strengthen his spirit.

If before this, Feng Lin’s genetic energy could only be described as a river, now, it was like a hundred rivers gathered together, becoming a huge sea. It surged forth with unstoppable momentum and power.

No matter how tough the gene lock was, it could not withstand the surging waves of power produced by this sea of energy. Finally, the walls were broken down as Feng Lin’s genetic energy rushed into the dark star frenziedly, infusing it with boundless strength and finally awakening it completely.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM. A pulse like that of a heartbeat could be heard as the dark star finally lit up with silver radiance. From being a reclusive gene, it finally awakened and gradually grew as bright as the sun, lighting up the entire starry s.p.a.ce.

Spirit Gene, awakened!

A mysterious aura gushed forth.

=====

Gene: Spirit Gene

Grade: High-grade primeval gene

Strengthening Tally: 1

Ability: Allowing one’s spirit to leave the body, comprehending all mysteries, controlling over the formless spirit force

=====

In the center of Feng Lin’s brow, a thin slit appeared like the third eye of G.o.ds in the legend—a divine eye! At the next instant, his third eye opened, wanting to see through the illusions of the mortal world.

Boundless golden energy gushed forth from within.

The originally formless spirit energy became corporeal, undergoing a complete transformation. It would spread out like the wind and permeate the surroundings. Occasionally, it would also become as sharp as swords, capable of piercing through everything.

Feng Lin slowly opened his two eyes. A hint of golden light flickered within as two beams shot out, towering up into the sky.

Under his control, the spirit force caused the nearby objects in his surroundings to move about, rising in the air before falling back. A vortex of energy was formed as the snowstorm swirled violently. The vortex grew larger and larger with increasing momentum, as though it wanted to envelop the entire Mount Everest.

“What is that golden light?”

“Could there be an unusual treasure being birthed by the world and it was obtained by that man?”

“Quickly, let’s go and take a look!”

…

His spirit force transformed into a golden beam of light that shot up into the sky. This phenomenon instantly caused those at the Himalayas to be unable to remain calm. Unceasingly, countless figures started to rush over here from all directions.

All these unaffiliated cultivators were all extremely audacious. In order to contend for cultivation resources, they would do anything.

They all thought that an unusual treasure must have appeared, this was why a phenomenon appeared. The greed in their hearts was naturally all revealed.

Is this the Spirit Gene?

Feng Lin didn’t bother with the reactions of others. He observed his immense spirit force and discovered that it was indeed formed from the fusion of mental energy, psyforce, and spirituality together.

Add point!

He decisively added one free primeval genetic point to the strengthening tally, causing the Spirit Gene to rise from 1 to 2.

All this happened silently, but his spirit force expanded by two-fold and was surging forth like floodwaters, permeating his surroundings.

Feng Lin stood at Mount Everest’s peak, and his spirit force swept across the heavens and earth as he basked in the feel of nature.

BOOM!

The peak of the mountains nearby had acc.u.mulated snow for tens of thousands of years. The total weight of it was most probably millions and millions of tonnes. Once there was a disturbance of any sort, a b.u.t.terfly effect would happen, leading to an instant collapse.

Hence, one had to be wary of even shouting out loud in the midst of such a place.

There was no need to doubt that when Feng Lin’s spirit force swept out, the fragile balance was instantly broken. The layers of snow started to collapse. At the start, only a little rumbling could be felt. As time pa.s.sed, the layers of snow collapsed together, forming a large-scale avalanche.

It was like a sea of snow generating shocking waves to destroy everything, wanting to swallow up this world. Nothing could block it.

Feng Lin stood at the peak of Mount Everest, not affected by this at all.

But for those cultivators who were rus.h.i.+ng here, they were in for it.

Although they were already interstellar cultivators, what were they before the heavenly might of a natural disaster? They were all instantly crushed flat if they didn’t manage to dodge in time.

“Quickly run! A giant avalanche has happened in the Himalayas!” These people fled in all directions, wanting nothing more than to grow another pair of legs so they could increase their speed.

For some people, they didn’t want to give up and still wanted to approach. These people were instantly covered by the layers of snow from the avalanche.

Feng Lin had a look of astonishment as he stared down at the scenes below him. He then realized that it must be his Spirit Gene’s awakening which had created fluctuations that were the cause of all of this.

His spirit force swept out, and according to his control, a tangible cloud of mist formed below his feet, propping him up in the air.

“Quickly look, that person is floating!” At the foot of the mountain, exclamations of surprise rang out.

But before they could see Feng Lin clearly…

Swish~

The cloud he was riding on increased in speed, flying into the distance and quickly vanis.h.i.+ng from the visions of other cultivators.

This was…

Cloudsoar?!
