Chapter 286 Gene Collapse
Behind him was the old woman, and downstairs was the old woman too!
The impact on both his vision and nerves deeply stimulated Chu Ge.
The more it happened, the less afraid he became.
All he felt was anger!
Once he saw the true face of the adversary, there was nothing to fear.
No matter if you are a ghost, a magnetic field, or some unconventional living material, I'll dig you out!
Chu Ge jumped downstairs, and all the old women instantly transformed into countless bats and flew away.
He turned around, looking at the apartment building.
It's definitely in here!
Why did so many old women appear only after he arrived here?
This meant that the unconventional lifeforms were all hiding within the walls of the apartment building!
Chu Ge tightened his skin, steel-hardening it.
He kept his anger at full blaze, the Raging Flame Separation burning furiously!
I absolutely can't fall here!
I must go back!
Chu Ge growled lowly, suddenly accelerating, and crashed into the apartment building.
Bang!
He hit the wall hard, shaking the building.
He started to smash against the wall relentlessly, vowing to collapse it and see the true face of the unconventional life material.
...
Gu Tianjiao was hesitating at the crossroads.
Suddenly, she heard Chu Ge's roar and reflexively rushed out.
Soon, she found Chu Ge.
She froze completely.
Following her gaze, Chu Ge was desperately smashing into the wall, his head and shoulders covered in blood, the wall already crumbling from his impact, yet he continued to strike other walls as if possessed.
Gu Tianjiao immediately rushed over, shouting, "You little brat! Wake up!"
She tried to stop Chu Ge, but his strength was too great, easily flinging her away.
At that moment, Chu Ge's eyes were blood-red, filled with murderous intent and madness.
"Chu Ge Siqi!"
"You damn Lion!"
"Chu Ge!"
Gu Tianjiao panicked, calling out to Chu Ge non-stop, but Chu Ge showed no response, as if unable to see her, and kept smashing into the wall.
Meanwhile.
In Chu Ge's vision, he didn't see Gu Tianjiao.
He was being held back by countless old women grabbing onto his lion form, trying to drag him down, but his strength was too strong; he kept crashing into the walls even while dragging a group of old women with him.
With every wall he brought down, he checked for strange stones, but had found nothing so far.
He faintly heard someone calling him and thought it was an illusion, not paying attention.
"I don't believe it! I can't find you!"
Chu Ge's eyes flashed with anger, and he continued to roar internally to maintain his fury.
Boom!
He knocked down another wall again.
Suddenly, he saw a piece of deep purple stone hidden inside the cement bricks.
He widened his eyes.
Could it be this thing?
Just then, an old woman rushed in front of him, trying to snatch the purple stone.
Chu Ge was furious and immediately swung his claw, ready to scatter the old woman.
The next second!
He suddenly stopped.
For some reason, looking at the back of this old woman, he couldn't bring himself to strike her.
As his claw almost hit the old woman, he felt suffocated, forcing him to stop.
"Chu Ge!"
"Chu Ge!"
"Chu Ge!"

The previous shouts grew louder, and Chu Ge quickly recognized the identity of the caller.
Gu Tianjiao!
Boom!
His mind exploded, and the world around him shattered like glass.
He suddenly woke up.
Before him stood Gu Tianjiao, anxiously calling his name.
Behind her was the deep purple stone.
The old woman from before was actually Gu Tianjiao…
Chu Ge was dripping with cold sweat.
He almost slapped her just now.
Given that Gu Tianjiao's current form was her actual self, if she had been slapped to death, that would have been the end of her...
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he felt, suddenly an impulse to tear everything apart surged within him.
Gu Tianjiao noticed his apprehension and reassured him with a smile, "It's fine, I'm not dead from your slap, am I? Seems like you do care about me. I really thought you were going to kill me back there, how wronged I would have been."
Her gaze was gentle, a stark contrast to her usual self.
Chu Ge took a deep breath and said, "What do we do next, should I eat it? After all, I'm not my actual self."
Either break the situation or die from poison, getting eliminated back to the Team Cultivation Hall.
Gu Tianjiao's expression turned grave, "How do you know you can revert to your actual self?"
At her words, Chu Ge fell silent.
That was indeed a problem.
But what other choice did they have at this moment?
He gritted his teeth and said, "You should leave first, lest I do something I'll regret forever. I'm going to eat it!"
Gu Tianjiao hesitated, wanting to speak.
She intended to persuade him, but it seemed there really was no other way.
"If it really doesn't work out, you could just become an animal, I wouldn't mind..." Gu Tianjiao hesitated to say, but before she could finish her sentence, Chu Ge swallowed the deep blue stone in one gulp.
He glared at Gu Tianjiao and roared, "Go, quickly!"
With no other choice, Gu Tianjiao left, biting her lip.
Watching her retreating figure, Chu Ge turned and ran in the opposite direction.
He had to get as far away from Gu Tianjiao as possible.
Once the deep blue stone was in his stomach, Chu Ge immediately felt a burning sensation like his belly was on fire.
Damn it!
He was fire itself, and yet he could feel the scorch of the flames.
Absurd!
Chu Ge endured as best as he could.
"Whether I can survive or not depends on this!"
Chu Ge clenched his teeth and thought to himself, quickly distancing himself from the residential area and leaping into a small urban lake.
As soon as he hit the water, the relief was immense.
However, he was no sea creature.
He had to come up to the surface of the lake.
The passersby around were startled.
"Look, it's a lion!"
"Why is there a lion in the lake?"
"Don't panic! Look, that lion seems to be soaking in a bath?"
"Soaking in a bath? What are you thinking about? Wait till it comes out, and you'll be soaking in its stomach acid!"
"That's a huge lion!"
Some citizens ran away scared, while others took out their phones to take pictures.
Chu Ge noticed them, but he no longer had the luxury of caring.
Earlier he felt his stomach burning, now he felt it cold.
Are you kidding me!
For the first time, Chu Ge felt such intense hatred towards an inanimate object.
All the suffering he went through because of this stone!
He immediately activated the heat within his body to make himself feel better.
Not long after, he started feeling dizzy.
The crowd at the lakeside was growing, and the sound of police sirens could be heard in the distance.
Chu Ge's consciousness gradually sank into darkness.
He stopped struggling and slowly sank into the lake.
"The lion has gone down! Should we save it?" a little girl exclaimed, but no one dared to enter the lake.
As if.
Only someone who wished for a shorter life would go down to save such a big Male Lion.
As Chu Ge sank deeper to the bottom of the lake, his gaze fixed on the rippling surface, the sun above blurry and indistinct.
"Your genes are facing unconventional material destruction!"
"Your Raging Flame Separating Fire is facing infection!"
"Your genetic sequence is collapsing!"
"Mysterious substance detected in your genes!"
"Your genes..."
Listening to the emotionless female voice continually resounding, Chu Ge's consciousness plunged into complete darkness.
Before his consciousness completely dissipated, one thought dominated his mind.
Here it comes!
He had never been so glad to hear that emotionless voice.
Because he wanted to Survive.
He wanted to live on as a human being.
