Chapter 63: The Reason

‘When Lin Feng walked out of the Virtual Battle Chamber, he immediately saw Feng Xiu’s pa.s.sionate gaze.

“Brother Feng, you’re really amazing. You were actually able to defeat Dongfang Sheng the Demon King. Now, Brother Feng is number one in the Virtual Battle Chamber. What an honor!”

Even now, Feng Xiu was still in a state of excitement. He thought about how shocking it would be if someone challenged the person ranked first in the future and discovered that it was Lin Feng.

He was following Lin Feng now, and could also become a hot topic of discussion in the future.

Lin Feng’s feelings were very complicated. He felt neither excitement, nor any sense of “success and fame”. Instead, he heaved a long sigh of relief. This could also be considered as making up for his previous regret.

Right now, he had already challenged the Virtual Battle Chamber. Even the various attributes of his body had reached their limits. There wasn’t much point in continuing to temper his body. Furthermore, he only had a year left to live.

Hence, Lin Feng only had one goal now. He would only do one thing, and that was to break the genetic lock!

“Feng Xiu, I won’t be going out for this period of time. I’ll try to break the genetic lock. Help me gather all the information regarding breaking the genetic lock.”

Feng Xiu nodded excitedly and said, “Don’t worry, Brother Feng, You’ve already become the number one person in the Virtual Battle Chamber. There are indeed no more regrets. Breaking the genetic lock should be your top priority. I’ll help to gather the information for you.”

Lin Feng nodded, then turned around and left, returning to his room.

There were actually many theories regarding the genetic lock. Moreover, in the online shop of the Myriad Academy, there would also be some “experiences” of breaking the genetic lock by inhuman experts.

Of course, all these required points for purchase, and these experiences were all very expensive.

For example, even a random volume of “experience” required more than 10 points.

However, to the current Lin Feng, a mere ten points was nothing. He bought dozens of books in one go, all of which were some inhuman experts’ “experiences” of breaking the genetic lock.

Moreover, Lin Feng was not buying them alone. Feng Xiu was also helping Lin Feng to collect them. In just two or three days, Lin Feng had already collected a large amount of information regarding breaking the genetic lock.

Lin Feng read almost all of this information. He also gained a direct understanding of how to break the lock in his mind.

Breaking the genetic lock required “seeing the lock’, which was to sense one’s own genetic lock. Then, one’s physique would reach a certain level. In addition, with a strong will, one would be able to break the genetic lock.

There was almost no difficulty to this process. As long as one could “see the genetic lock”, one would be able to break it. Then, after breaking it, one would not be able to metamorphose instantly, but require a certain amount of time to undergo metamorphosis.

It would take as long as two to three months or as short as ten days to half a month for the complete metamorphosis to take place. Once the metamorphosis was complete, one would become an inhuman expert, their genes would be restructured, and their lives would undergo a transition. They would

now be different from ordinary humans.

However, the more he learned about the steps to breaking the genetic lock, the more confused Lin Feng felt. According to the information, he had actually seen the genetic lock.

However, he had yet to undergo metamorphosis. This was just too strange.

Chief Commander Long Duo had mentioned this before. Once someone saw the genetic lock, they would slowly undergo metamorphosis. There would be almost no difficulty in the process. Why was it different when it came to Lin Feng?

Lin Feng was also searching for the reason.

“Breaking the genetic lock is to stimulate one’s potential. The human genetic chain contains unimaginable power, but it’s trapped behind the genetic lock, and one has to break the genetic lock. However, I’m different. Could it be because I’ve fused the genes of dire beasts?”

The more Lin Feng thought about it, the more he found it probable that it was because he had fused the genes of dire beasts. After all, apart from the dire beast genes he fused, he was no different from ordinary martial artists in other aspects.

“It’s the fusion of dire beast genes, and complete fusion at that. In other words, my current genes are no longer entirely human genes? If I can only see the genetic lock, that’s just my original genetic lock. Do other dire beast genes also have genetic locks?”

Lin Feng thought of a possibility. If humans had genetic locks, did dire beasts have genetic locks too?

Very few people actually paid attention to this point. Ordinary human martial artists were only concerned about whether they could break the genetic lock. No one would care about such theories, let alone be whimsical enough to pay attention to the situation of dire beasts.

However, things were different for Lin Feng. Having fused the genes of dire beasts, while gaining great power, he had to understand the situation about dire beast genes too.

Hence, Lin Feng researched it online. In particular, he looked up the papers of some biology professors.

These were all publicized online. The knowledge was obscure but shocking once learned. Dire beasts were also born with genetic locks, but the genetic locks of dire beasts were different from those of humans.

Basically, the ability to break the genetic lock was innate to dire beasts. For example, demons were born as demons. In other words, they were born able to break the genetic lock and above ordinary dire beasts.

As for ordinary dire beasts, trying to break the genetic lock was just too difficult for them. At least, humans had never come across such a thing before.

However, there were some professors who believed that dire beasts could also break the genetic lock. It was just that dire beasts did not have much intelligence, and had not created martial arts which specially targeted the genetic lock like humans. Hence, it was basically extremely difficult for ordinary

dire beasts to break the genetic lock. However, this did not mean that it was absolutely impossible for dire beasts to break the genetic lock.

These were just speculations and had not been confirmed, but a thought seemed to flash through Lin Feng’s mind.

Others might think that this was an unreliable speculation, but Lin Feng vaguely believed in this speculation: ordinary dire beasts were also able to break the genetic lock.

“Yes, that must be it. Although I can see the genetic lock, that’s only my genetic lock as a human. I’ve fused the genetic locks of four dire beasts. In fact, from a genetic perspective, I’m no longer a pure human, but a chimera of human and dire beasts.”

“Even if I see the human genetic lock and want to undergo metamorphosis, the genes of the other four dire beasts will still hinder the metamorphosis of my human genes. If I want to break the genetic lock, I’ll have to break the genetic locks of the other four dire beasts as well.”

Lin Feng’s eyes lit up more and more. This sounded like a fantasy. Moreover, if word got out, no one would believe it. However, Lin Feng felt that the possibility of this speculation was close to certainty.

This was most likely the reason he sensed the genetic lock but couldn’t metamorphose.

Since he had found the reason, he would have to think of the solution. It would just be to break the genetic locks of the other four dire beasts, but Lin Feng had no experience in this aspect.

Even those inhuman experts who had broken the genetic lock had no experience. After all, even those demons were born with the ability to break the genetic lock.

How should ordinary dire beasts break the genetic lock? In all probability, even the dire beasts themselves did not know how..
