Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Lin Shen was about to say that once the Life Base hit the ground, it would be under his control, impossible to recall.

But then he saw the copper figure reach out and grab it, and the Bronze Sword Life Base slid across the ground toward the figure.

The copper figure, holding the Bronze Sword, charged at Lin Shen again, a Crimson Flame Sword Light tens of meters long slashing toward him.

Lin Shen was fanning rapidly with the Inheritance Fan in a Folding Style and Sway Style sequence, summoning the Contrarian to use the Same Root Born skill, merging with him into one.

Merged with the Contrarian, all his skills activated, Lin Shen tossed aside the Inheritance Fan and grasped the Scrap Sword and its scabbard, charging forward.

Crack!

Lin Shen's Scrap Sword struck the Crimson Flame Sword Light and split it directly in two.

Wielding dual blades furiously, Lin Shen, braving the Crimson Flame Sword Light, blocked every sword light the bronze figure launched and crossed his sword with the scabbard, performing a Scrap Sword Snip that decapitated the copper figure.

The copper figure immediately fell to the ground, motionless. Its Life Base Bronze Sword tried to escape, but Lin Shen knocked it down with his scabbard.

"Hunting Nirvana Creature Bronze Sword Soldier... found Nirvana Spiritual Base Bronze Sword..."

Before Lin Shen could pick up the Bronze Sword, the countdown timer he had set expired, and he was teleported out.

With the experience from his first visit, Lin Shen set a much longer timer for his next entry.

However, when he arrived at Star of Arms again, the corpse of the Bronze Sword Soldier was still there, but the Bronze Sword Spiritual Base was gone, presumably having escaped.

Lin Shen didn't care much, and not far into the mountain, he encountered more Bronze Sword Soldiers – this time, there were dozens of them, including one with a violet-red body that clearly indicated a mutation.

Lin Shen turned and ran. Facing so many Bronze Sword Soldiers alone was impossible, he couldn't risk his life.

Fortunately, he was fast enough; the Bronze Sword Soldiers hadn't spotted him by the time he was far away, so they didn't chase after him.

"Could it be that Star of Arms is populated entirely by Nirvana Creatures?" Lin Shen thought, considering it very likely.

Given that even something as mundane as a Bronze Sword Soldier was of Nirvana Level, finding a creature below that level here would probably not be easy.

After escaping a good distance and seeing no Bronze Sword Soldiers in pursuit, Lin Shen slowed down. He didn't dare to wander carelessly, not knowing if more terrifying creatures were hidden nearby.

After rounding a mountain, Lin Shen saw a copper figure with a Bronze Knife walking alone ahead of him.

Since it was just one copper figure, Lin Shen didn't hold back, unleashing his full firepower, and quickly killed the figure.

With all skills activated, along with the Contrarian, Lin Shen's combat power was beyond comparing to an ordinary Nirvana Being.

"Killed Nirvana Creature Bronze Knife Soldier, found Nirvana Spiritual Base Bronze Knife," an alert came from his watch.

This time Lin Shen didn't let the Spiritual Base escape. He used the Shocking Form to control it and then pinned it to the ground.

"It's been quite a struggle to get a Nirvana Spiritual Base, and you wanted to run." Lin Shen stored it in his storage space.

"A temple!" Lin Shen continued forward and discovered a temple ahead, identical to the Chiyou Temple he had seen on the Mysterious Planet, perched on the mountainside.

Lin Shen flew closer and indeed saw three characters "Chiyou Temple" written on the plaque of the temple.

Lin Shen pushed the door open and entered. The Chiyou Temple was empty, but in the main hall of the temple, on the altar was a statue of Chiyou.

"What exactly is the relationship between this Star of Arms and that mysterious planet? Why did the appearance of the Star of Arms only emerge after I restored the statue from the mysterious planet? Could it be that gods can also be kidnapped?" Lin Shen couldn't figure it out.

While Lin Shen was contemplating these problems, he suddenly heard a voice: "Inheritor… please select the weapon you wish to inherit…"

Lin Shen looked up in astonishment at the Chiyou Statue, which was speaking.

However, the Chiyou Statue was expressionless, almost mechanical, and its eyes emitted light, transforming into a holographic projection in front of Lin Shen.

A variety of weapons with different forms appeared in front of Lin Shen.

Blade, spear, sword, halberd, axe, Tomahawk, hook, and fork, along with many other weapons unfamiliar to Lin Shen.

"Inheritor, please choose the weapon you want to inherit." The statue repeated the words.

"Why should I choose? What are the benefits of choosing for me?" Lin Shen asked the statue, not sure if it could answer him.

"Choose any weapon, and you will acquire that weapon's innate talent. Using that category of weapon will grant you the talent's enhancement, and you will also become the Inheritor of that weapon, competing for the title of Weapon King…" The statue actually began explaining in detail.

Lin Shen listened with his eyes wide open. Just choosing one weapon could grant him a talent, and if he became the Weapon King, he could also acquire the King's talent. This meant he would have two talents.

What was even more unbelievable was that there were rankings for the King of All Arms. Having the title of King of All Arms would also grant him another talent's enhancement, making it three enhancements in total.

"Can I choose multiple talents?" Lin Shen hurriedly asked.

If he could choose more than one, he could select all kinds of weapons. Then he would have a talent enhancement when using any weapon. That sounded amazing.

"Yes." said the statue.

"Good, I choose them all." Lin Shen said without any hesitation.

He himself was indecisive; he preferred using Death Powder over a blade, but Death Powder wasn't a weapon, and the statue wouldn't make a special category for it. Lin Shen had been somewhat conflicted, but since he could choose them all, there was no need to hesitate any longer.

"Are you sure you want to become the Inheritor of all categories of weapons?" the statue asked again.

"Yes, confirmed." Lin Shen said.

The next second, all weapon images lit up, turned into streams of light, and rushed into Lin Shen's body, causing him to feel a strange change within.

"Sword Artifact proficiency… Blade Artifact proficiency… Spear Artifact proficiency… Axe Artifact proficiency…" Random information kept appearing in Lin Shen's mind.

"Inheritor, leave your name." The voice of the statue rang out again.

"Fist God." Lin Shen said casually.

"Name Fist God, Sword Series inheritor has appeared, Sword Series rankings open, Fist God ranks first on the list, crowned with the Sword King title, acquiring the Sword King talent… Blade Series inheritor has appeared, Blade Series rankings open, Fist God ranks first on the list, crowned with the Blade King title, acquiring the Blade King talent… Spear Series… All series of inheritances have commenced… King of All Arms rankings open… Fist God ranks first on the King of All Arms list, crowned with the King of All Arms title, acquiring the King of All Arms talent…"

With each announcement, streams of light merged into Lin Shen's body.
