“Who is that?” Feng Lin roared in rage. He didn’t say anything more and instantly made his move.

That crawling black silhouette was clearly a living creature. Although its body was soft and flexible, resembling a snake, there was a head and four limbs. That was clearly a human that had silently approached him, observing his actions. There was no doubt that that black silhouette came with unkind intentions.

No matter if that person was a friend or foe, it wouldn’t be wrong to capture him immediately.

Feng Lin drew in a deep breath and opened his mouth as he spat out. The resulting boom felt like a thunderbolt, causing the hearts of people to chill.

A white beam of light flashed, showing an air arrow that was capable of injuring people if the attack hit.

Feng Lin stomped heavily on the ground. The rocks on the mountain peak crumbled and rose up from the impact. With a sweep of his leg, the tens of rock shrapnels were swept out by the force of his kicks, shooting forth with the speed of bullets.

He didn’t stop and acted like a fierce tiger, lunging over, exuding a fearsome aura. He burst forth with all his strength, wanting to subdue his opponent as he launched a series of attacks. Feng Lin s.h.i.+fted to the side, dodging a silvery mercury-like substance spat out by his opponent. He continued rus.h.i.+ng over, not planning to give his opponent any time to breathe.

“No good!” That snake silhouette was discovered and couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.

The silhouette didn’t expect the senses of this man to be so sharp and had so ferocious attacks that were as swift as the wind, as blazing as fire. It instantly fell into danger and had no way to defend itself.

The snake-like figure’s slender body twisted left and right. Its four limbs were on the ground and shuttled quickly across the mountain walls, evading the air arrow as well as the rock shrapnels.

As Feng Lin’s attacks neared, the snake-figured man arched his back and suddenly leapt up in the air, nimbly dodging the attack. After that, he landed once again on the mountain walls and slithered away with great speed.

“Where can you run to!” Feng Lin coldly snorted. At the point where the opponent dodged his attacks, Feng Lin had clearly seen the enemy’s appearance. The man’s body was slender and flexible as though it had no bones at all. There was also a layer of black-scales covering his figure, making it resembled a large black python, allowing him to perfectly meld into this environment of darkness. If it wasn’t for the fact that Feng Lin had awakened his Mental Gene, it was impossible for him to discover this snake-figured man at all.

This snake-figured fellow was extremely strange. This also further proved how treacherous and unfathomable humans could be. Why was this fellow observing him?

Hence, there was no way for him to let this man go.

Ha!

Feng Lin’s legs suddenly stomped. The stone surface of the mountain was like soft tofu as his legs sank in. With a breath in, he suddenly unleashed a flurry of blows.

Hong Fist!

This was one of the most ordinary ancient martial arts. Even without the supplement of genetic abilities, it displayed tyranny and domineering prowess. This ordinary martial arts, when used by Feng Lin, sent out streams of formless fist force that shot through the air, resulting in long-distance attacks.

Bang, bang, bang!

Numerous explosive booms rang out, akin to the sound of thunder.

The fist forces in those punches were like cannon and were as dense as rain, shooting towards the same direction. The stone mountain walls were all torn full of holes, and shattered rocks flew about wildly.

That slithering figure moved like a true snake, his body constantly twisting, agilely avoiding Feng Lin’s attacks.

Such flexibility wasn’t something ordinary humans would have.

Upon seeing this scene, how could Feng Lin not understand that this man must have awakened mythological genes as well? His abilities were extremely bizarre, granting him extraordinary flexibility akin to a snake. However, Feng Lin still couldn’t be sure of the exact genes that this man had awakened.

Was it the Slithering Snake Gene, the Boneless Gene, or Flexibility Gene?…

He didn’t know any of this.

There were many genes that granted flexibility, and their traits were similar. He couldn’t be sure within such a short time.

“Things are somewhat troublesome,” Feng Lin silently mused. But even so, it was only considered a little troublesome to him given his current abilities.

After becoming an interstellar cultivator, there was simply too many methods he could use. He had an answer for any kind of complex situation.

Staring at the snake-figured man frenziedly escaping, Feng Lin unleashed his full speed as he gave chase.

At the very least, he could reach the speed of 2.28s per 100 meters. Moving short-distances was like teleportation to him. He could instantly arrive at his target location.

Given his current speed, not only had he exceeded the limits of the human body, but he had also exceeded the speed in which ordinary humans could track with their eyes. After-images formed after him, Feng Lin’s silhouettes were everywhere on the mountain, appearing extremely real.

One of Feng Lin’s hands took on the claw-form as he ruthlessly slashed out with it.

Chi…

The air was torn apart like rags. The snake-figured man couldn’t react in time. He was grabbed and held in a choke into the air.

Feng Lin saw an incomparably bizarre looking human figure. The features of this human were squashed together, extremely ugly and eccentric. His body was as soft as water, so flexible as though he had no bones at all. He was clearly a human but resembled a snake as he squirmed about wildly in Feng Lin’s grasp.

It was also unknown what he was wearing. It was like a layer of scales that were s.h.i.+ning and slippery. If he didn’t hold the snake-figured man tightly enough, it would surely be able to wriggle free.

Feng Lin couldn’t help but increase his strength.

“Argh!” That features of that snake-figured man contorted as he screamed in pain due to the immense force in Feng Lin’s grab. All of a sudden, the snake-figured man opened his mouth, and two beams of green light flashed. There seemed to be two items that were as sharp as needles shooting toward Feng Lin’s eyes.

This close of a distance was simply like face to face. It was impossible to evade.

“What the h.e.l.l is that?” A sense of danger rose up in Feng Lin’s heart. He instinctively shut his eyes as he activated the Stone Monkey Gene, causing his skin to toughen up, becoming as hard as marble.

The tiny sharp objects slammed into his eyelids, creating sparks while emitting a clear ringing sound before they were deflected.

“What?” A voice exclaimed in disbelief. That was a sure-kill technique but how come there was no effect? That snake-figured man couldn’t believe what was happening.

Taking advantage of the fact that Feng Lin wasn’t paying attention, his snake-like body that was extremely smooth and slippery suddenly contracted, becoming incomparably slender as he slid out of Feng Lin’s grasp. He then turned and hurriedly fled, wanting nothing more than to be as far away as possible from this monster Feng Lin.

Chi, chi!

The two green-colored needles fell onto the ground, causing black smoke to rise up as the surface of the ground started to corrode. Evidently, the needles were highly toxic.

Feng Lin immediately felt great anger. Such an insidious method! This man clearly wanted to kill him.

Originally, he only wanted to subdue this man and find out where he came from and why did he track him.

But now, he didn’t need to consider things so much anymore.

Since the other party had already launched killing blows, if he still showed mercy now, it would really mean that he was crazy.

Feng Lin began to unleash all his methods and started to launch attacks that could kill his opponents.

His fingers continued to flick out. His supple flesh vibrated at high frequency as tiny needles of air force blasted through the air as quick as bullets.

Although the air bullets created by the flicking of his fingers wasn’t that powerful, they were extremely numerous and tough to evade.

The snake-figured man also knew how strong Feng Lin was. He opened his mouth and spat out concentrated amounts of poisonous green needles in response.

The poisonous bullets clashed against the air bullets, causing a ringing sound to echo like the collision of metal and stone. Sparks manifested, spraying through the air as the needles fell to the ground.

These green needles were extremely sharp; all of them were embedded in the ground due to the impact of the collision. The air bullets also went off course and ricocheted elsewhere, making the surface of the land full of holes.

On the surface, they seemed to be evenly matched, but Feng Lin was already successful in delaying his opponent. How could he miss this opportunity?

Vajra Subduing Devil Fist!

The Stone Monkey Gene granted him a body of stone with bones of steel. The toughness of his body was completely not inferior to the traits of those with the Vajra Gene. He could completely unleash the power of this genetic martial art, displaying 100% of the potential.

Feng Lin continued attacking. It was like a true vajra had descended to the mortal world. He crossed three meters with a single step, taking large strides as he chased after his opponent.

BOOM!

His fist contained a heavy force. The raging air currents frenziedly blasted over, becoming an intense wind pressure that knocked the snake-figured man flat on the ground, pinning him there.

This fist…The snake-figured man knew that he was unable to take it!

The snake figure inclined his head and stared at this scene. His face was painted with terror.

BANG!

The snake-figured man was completely helpless and couldn’t defend against it. He was pummelled by the force of the ruthless blow, and his entire person seemed to have become a shriveled piece of snake skin.

“Something is wrong!” Feng Lin felt a sense of unease. Given how great his current strength was and the fact that earlier he had used his full power in this punch, how come this snake-figured man didn’t even cough out blood? How was this possible?!

Sou!

A figure suddenly wriggled out from the ‘snake skin’ as that figure struggled to flee.

The shredding of the snake skin was actually an ability to protect his life. Feng Lin didn’t expect it, but his killing intent was already roused. There was no way he would spare this person.

His formless mental energy gushed out, locking down on his opponent’s figure, not allowing him to escape his detection.

This poor snake-figured man was inferior to Feng Lin in speed and strength. He was forced to his limits until he couldn’t take it anymore. All of a sudden, he turned and sprang toward Feng Lin.

His flat figure suddenly inflated, taking on a form that resembled humans as he took out a ray gun, blasting it at Feng Lin.

The fiery beam of light broke through the darkness, seeking to destroy everything in its path.

A great sense of crisis rose up in Feng Lin’s heart. He crossed his arms in front of his chest, attempting to block the light beam.

Chi!

The light beam blasted into Feng Lin’s arms, forcing him back over ten steps before he came to a stop. His feet left behind imprints on the surface of the ground when he was forced back, a truly shocking sight.

The Stone Monkey Gene was impervious to fire and water, so he managed to defend against this rush of energy.

Feng Lin’s hands trembled slightly. His arms were charred black as killing intent rose up in his heart.

“DIE!” He roared in anger. Leaping upward in a position where no one could block him, his punches were as heavy as a mountain.

Even before his punch force arrived, the pressure his stance emitted already caused that snake-figured man to be immobilized.

Even if you are a real snake, you will be crushed into a dead snake under this fist of mine!

Seeing such a powerful blow, that snake-figured man also didn’t know how to evade it. His face was filled with despair as though he had already seen how he would die under the force of this blow.

“Stay your hand!” From the darkness, two palms slammed out. They appeared to be ordinary, but they contained a myriad of variations in them, capable of changing to millions of stances as they blocked Feng Lin’s attack.
