Starting Chapter 345 of "The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order": Sylan's eyes couldn't leave the Tier Zero Genetic Chamber as he analyzed the changes in... See what happens next!
Sylan's eyes couldn't leave the Tier Zero Genetic Chamber as he analyzed the changes in Cain's genome, which were genuinely shocking. The young man displayed a talent that surpassed everything he had seen in his life.
To be fair, Cain's inherent talent wasn't anywhere near the level he was currently exhibiting. However, with the aid of the [Genetic Coder Module], he was at a level unparalleled in the empire among the young generation.
Some might label it as cheating, but such a viewpoint would be overly simplistic. First and foremost, Cain expended a tremendous amount of Destiny Force for the module to operate, a force he had earned through hard work. Furthermore, the system was an intrinsic part of his soul.
It was no different from a young man from the Old World acing a test due to a combination of intelligence and the enhanced focus from caffeine and other not-so-legal substances.
As Cain modified his genome, intense pain assailed him. Nevertheless, his willpower was sufficiently robust to suppress it, ensuring it didn't impede him. His movements and genetic modifications only became faster and smoother. Continue your saga on My Virtual Library Empire
Suddenly, after four excruciating hours of work, Cain's eyes opened, and they began to glow, the red light in them bursting forth. This sudden occurrence surprised and baffled many. However, there were individuals like Sylan who perfectly grasped the situation.
"The young man's mind has entered a state of enlightenment. He's attained a profound understanding of the human genome, allowing his brain to operate several times faster by consuming his Ego Wave in the process.
This state is temporary, but upon awakening, his talent in Genetic Coding will be even more formidable."
Marlon and the other Grandmasters gazed at Cain in sheer awe and amazement. Cain's talent was already divine, but it escalated before their eyes. The young man was simply astonishing!
For over thirty minutes, Cain's proficiency amplified exponentially. However, his bursting Ego Wave began to wane.
Sylan saw the red light weakening but was not surprised. After all, Cain's willpower was on par with a Late Wave Champion. The fact that he maintained his state of enlightenment for this duration was already impressive.
'Soon, his mind will revert to its usual state. It's endured long enough for him to complete the Genetic Formula.
However, it's unfortunate he couldn't sustain it longer. There might have been a possibility that, in this enlightened state, he could've achieved an evolution even more potent than the formula described.'
As these thoughts crossed Sylan's mind, a golden humanoid deep within Cain's soul noted the Sun Seed's diminishing force.
Apex's eyes narrowed as he examined the orb before him, cloaked in dark purple flames and black-white lightning. It contained the condensed soul force of the Astral Blood Beast that had once tried to exploit Cain's soul for its rebirth.
A stream of sky-blue energy emerged from the orb, gently merging with Cain's soul. The primary reason for Cain's expertise with blood-related abilities was Apex nourishing his soul with that of the Astral Blood Beast!
While using someone else's soul for nourishment was highly efficient, consuming the soul of another being was perilous. If even the tiniest fragment of ego remained, it could cause extensive psychological damage.
The challenge lay in the intricate relationship between the soul, ego, and will. Purging the latter would invariably damage the former. Yet, Apex utilized the unique powers of the dark purple flames and black-white lightning to circumvent this issue.
However, Cain remained unfazed. Although facing a Late Wave King was treacherous, Salaman's combat capabilities were average, and Cain didn't fear confronting him.
Of course, Cain wouldn't attack. He wasn't so arrogant as to believe he could simply kill someone inside the headquarters of the Genetic Coding Association without facing severe repercussions.
Although Cain's mentality had changed after the events of the Blade Mountain, and he would normally take care of their enemies, not giving them a chance to strike in the future, Salaman was just a symptom.
The real problem was the Azure Royal Family, and they were too strong for him at the moment.
Cain only glanced at Salaman before his body again melted into a mass of shadows. However, this time, he didn't vanish. Instead, he moved in that form at an astonishing speed, returning to the Tier Zero Bio Genetic Chamber.
Now distanced from Cain, Salaman's fear diminished, replaced by pure rage.
"You dare to sneak up on me?" The old man shouted, filled with anger, ready to call the security forces of the Genetic Evolution Cube.
"What are you talking about? I just awakened a new power and wasn't adept at controlling it. Besides, I didn't harm you in any way."
Salaman's rage intensified upon hearing that. He realized he had no valid basis for his accusations. Ordinarily, this wouldn't have deterred him, but considering a potential conflict with Cain, he recognized who the higher-ups would likely support.
"Enough, Salaman. Don't create a scene over a misunderstanding," Sylan interjected, then turned to Cain with a stern expression. "I'll give you some leeway since you've unlocked a new Lineage for us, but don't overstep your bounds."
Cain met Sylan's gaze and nodded. He knew how to adapt to the situation and would not lose his composure.
Observing the de-escalated situation, Sylan gave a nod before addressing Cain.
"You've rendered a great service to the Godslayer Humankind Empire, young man. Unlocking those two Lineage Formulas will pave the way for many future geniuses. Since you unveiled them, you have the privilege to name them."
Marlon and the other Grandmasters looked on in surprise. Naming a Lineage Formula was a significant honor for a Genetic Coder. From this point forward, individuals adopting the Lineage would bear its name, ensuring the widespread recognition of the Genetic Coder throughout the empire.
Cain wasn't overly concerned about naming rights, but gauging the importance others placed on it, he realized it would be disrespectful to appear disinterested.
A complicated expression appeared on his face as he sought the name for the Genetic Formula that granted Krane's bloodline. It took a long time before finally a smile appeared on his face.
"Due to their powers and nature, they will be known from now on as the 'Life Trent Lineage' and 'True Avernus Lineage."
Cain's expression was one of pride as he genuinely marveled at the wonder of the names he had just come up with. He was sure that everybody would feel the same way about them.
