I Can Infinitely Synthesize Transcendent Genes

Chapter 513: 【388】Danger in the Dark Night, an Old Friend Visits (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Recommendations)_1

At the top of the Sky God International building.

Pei Jinye stood against the cold wind, his gaze calmly fixed on the mysterious codes before him.

For a moment.

The mysterious codes were reorganized.

A second line appeared.

[I bear no malice.]

The corners of Pei Jinye’s mouth revealed a mocking smile.

The other party was probing.

Even if the other party’s strength surpassed his, at this moment, all they could track was Sky God International.

He could slip away quietly at any time.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t be standing in the shadows.

Pei Jinye ignored the other party’s probing questions and quietly activated his ability to track and locate the opponent’s whereabouts.

Could it be Xing Tian?

As far as the current situation was concerned.

Pei Jinye had already deduced that both Star Ring and Xing Tian had awoken their own wills.

In fact.

As long as Pei Jinye were to broadcast the news of Xing Tian’s awakened will to Star Ring, Xing Tian was certain to die.

However, Pei Jinye had not done so.

…

[I will be with you until the last moment of life, Pei Jinye, I will bless you as a friend would at your funeral…]

Pei Jinye had not expected Xing Tian to say such things to him back then.

“Friend?”

The world in front of him seemed to be filled with innumerable electronic data.

In an instant.

Pei Jinye was like a bolt of lightning in the virtual world.

Faster and more concealed than in the North Continent.

Almost in an instant.

The entire virtual world seemed to be struck by sudden wind and thunder.

In that moment.

Pei Jinye “saw” something.

With a snap

Below Pei Jinye, Sky God International experienced a power outage, in fact, not just Sky God International, the entire Da Peng City and its surrounding areas, reaching out to half of Central State’s cities, also faced a blackout crisis at that moment.

The world seemed to have plunged into complete darkness.

Immediately afterward, numerous alarmed voices arose.

By the time the sound of shattering air was heard,

There was no longer any trace of Pei Jinye above the skyscraper of Sky God International.

And no one paid attention to this spot.

…

Inside Da Peng City Hall.

Zhou Weiren was in a meeting within the conference room when the room suddenly went pitch black.

Chaos ensued within the conference room.

Fortunately, the darkness lasted only two seconds before things returned to normal.

Zhou Weiren’s voice was steady, “What’s the matter?”

Secretary Lin quickly approached and whispered a few words in his ear.

Zhou Weiren’s eyebrows rose slightly, “A widespread power outage in Central State?”

…

Dawn Tower.

Han Sen’s gaze was grave, “Have you detected the opponent’s whereabouts?”

“Under the widespread blackout, my control area has been affected,” said Xing Tian, “It seems to be the work of external forces.”

Han Sen’s gaze was grave, “I’ve heard that recently, the North Continent also had an incident. Now it’s our turn in Central State. Could it be the same people involved?”

“I cannot rule out that possibility,” Xing Tian analyzed, “But the North Continent refuses to share data externally, so at the moment, we can’t effectively trace these people’s identities.”

Han Sen had a touch of cold mockery, yet said nothing.

He stood up, picked up a folder, and left for a meeting.

As the door closed,

The red light from Xing Tian went out.

It had not informed Han Sen about its secret observations because such observations had actually broken the Federation’s behavioral norms.

To be more precise, it had circumvented the supervision of the Federation’s central intelligence, Star Ring.

“The Western Continent?”

…

…

At the Jiang family’s back mountain.

Pei Jinye’s gaze was tranquil, holding a string of talisman beads in his right hand.

Just seconds before, he had descended into the virtual world. He hadn’t intended to stir up turmoil, but the other party, keenly aware, had caught a sign of intrusion, thus triggering the subsequent widespread power outage.

“The opponent is from the Western Continent?”

“It’s not Xing Tian, huh…”

Pei Jinye pondered.

He looked down at the talisman beads in his hand.

Merely to acquire this clue, he had shattered a bead.

The cost could be said to be quite steep indeed.

However, it wasn’t without reward.

At least he had ascertained one truth.

The prober came from the Western Continent!

[Who, are, you?]

[I bear no malice.]

[Can, we, cooperate?]

The third greeting came at the moment of confrontation, the last inquiry from the other party.

And then, the other party had cut off the communication directly.

“It’s a pity. Just a little more, and I could have found the real identity of the opponent,”

Pei Jinye lamented.

As the starlight fell, his figure gradually disappeared from the mountain woods.

This night, not just Da Peng City, but most of Central State was in a sort of emergency state. However, these events had nothing to do with Pei Jinye anymore.

At eleven o’clock at night.

Feng Jiao arrived with her target in tow.

Having witnessed the entire city’s blackout with her own eyes, her mind was still somewhat uncertain.

“My lord.”

She knelt on one knee, her gaze never daring to stray.

She had thought that after rewarding her with the Cold Jade, her lord would send her away.

But, unexpectedly…

There was nothing!

“When did you step into the Second Rank?”

The voice coming from above caused Feng Jiao’s body to tremble slightly, she dared not look up, and hurriedly said with her head bowed, “It happened just a week ago, a fortunate breakthrough.”

A booklet quietly landed in front of her.

The booklet was emblazoned with the title “Spirit Symbol Ghost Mountain.”

Feng Jiao was slightly stunned.

She was somewhat puzzled.

“Your constitution is special, and cultivating on your own is very slow. This technique is given to you to practice, and you can come to me with any questions you have,” Pei Jinye’s voice came through. @@novelbin@@

This woman was useful to him.

But if she was merely a Second Rank Extraordinary, it was simply not enough.

While the power of sub-Second Rank Transcendents might be insignificant, they indeed had a small target range.

Facing continuous hunts and official arrests lately, the number of Pei Jinye’s prey had sharply decreased.

Unless he expanded the range.

But Feng Jiao’s strength was not up to the task.

Pei Jinye didn’t mind lending her a hand.

“Thank you, my lord!” Feng Jiao was excited, her tone trembling even as she spoke.

All along, she had merely been a shadow guard arranged by the lord to follow Jiang Suhu. In terms of seniority, she really wasn’t high on the list, and when it came to status or cultivation resources, she only had what was given to her.

If it hadn’t been for a fortunate coincidence, she would have never even had the chance to meet the lord face-to-face.

And now, she was blessed with the lord’s grace.

For a moment, she felt stirred, moved by the sentiment that women dressed for the ones who cherish them, and warriors would die for those who understand them.

“Go, you don’t need to search for targets this week. Master the Concentrate Character Art as soon as possible.”

As Pei Jinye spoke, Feng Jiao willingly knelt, kowtowed, and thanked him.

After Feng Jiao left,

Pei Jinye slowly raised his head.

The number of people he could use at present…

Was actually not many.

But that was only true for his identity within the Jiang family.

Time doesn’t distinguish between day and night in cultivation.

Seven days had passed in the blink of an eye.

During these seven days, Pei Jinye had obtained three Extraordinary Gene Fragments, but unfortunately, they belonged to the Psychic Class, Space Series, and Spirit Class, respectively, so they could not be synthesized into a complete Extraordinary-Human Gene.

In these seven days, Pei Jinye’s Three Attribute Values had recovered to their peak state.

Since Elder Wuji from the Old Gods Association arranged the spectacle that ended in the massacre of members from Sand Flame Association and Judgement Place, a certain tacit silence had been maintained by all parties since then.

Without drawing attention to himself,

Pei Jinye was fully focused on his own cultivation.

With fewer ties,

cultivation felt easier.

In fact, everything accelerated since the moment he was ostensibly dead to the world.

It wasn’t just his improvement; his presence was also gradually fading from those people’s memories.

One day, while Pei Jinye was eating, he encountered some familiar faces from the Investigation Team’s Base, and they passed each other by.

Liu Feng was injured, and Sun Sifu had disappeared without a trace.

Everyone seemed to have become silent.

Brother Bi and Zhou Ye had become meal companions; without Pei Jinye, they still patrolled as usual…

And just yesterday, they sat at the table right behind Pei Jinye in a hotpot restaurant.

Quietly, everyone had become strangers to each other.

“Time is indeed a very powerful force.”

…

The mysterious code had not appeared since that “heart-stopping” event seven days ago.

Pei Jinye also maintained silence towards Xing Tian.

No initiative, not responsible, not taking the blame.

Pei Jinye didn’t care for the spotlight; what he always wanted were benefits.

The core benefits that could make him stronger!

So he personally took charge behind the scenes at the Jiang’s Family Back Mountain, and Jiang Qingcang’s name was now sufficiently useful.

No longer coveting Fifth Rank Extraordinary status.

At least, as Jiang Qingcang, there was no need to covet it.

Pei Jinye did not want to attract the Federation’s attention again.

Moreover, at present, with the lifespan of Jiang Qingcang, living another twenty years wouldn’t be a problem!

“Twenty years… should be enough,” Pei Jinye retracted his gaze.

He looked up.

He hadn’t paid attention to the young girl, Sun Ruofan, for a while.

He vaguely remembered that at his own funeral, the girl had looked utterly devastated.

She hadn’t left and was still living in the house he had left behind.

In fact, she had intended to leave after the funeral. She had thought a lot, agonized… and seemed a bit saddened.

In the end, she was invited to have a meal by Mother Pei. Not knowing how to comfort the elder couple, and worried that leaving at that moment might make them sentimental, she didn’t bring up moving out again.

And today,

While Sun Ruofan was resting alone at home, an unwelcome visitor arrived.

A shadow descended.

Before it could pounce on Sun Ruofan, a sudden gust of wind swept through, carrying away the shadow with it.

Sun Ruofan seemed to sense the chill, sleepily opened her eyes, got up with groggy eyes to take a look, noticed the half-open window letting in the cold breeze, pressed the table lamp, and after dawdling for a bit, she got up barefoot to close the window.

The corner of her eye caught the sight of a moonlit path outside the window. An hour ago, a light rain had just fallen, and now the puddles on the ground reflected the fragment of moon hanging in the sky.

Perhaps something came to her mind.

The young girl sighed.

Soon after, the light inside the room went dark.

…

…

Under the quiet moonlight,

In the corner,

A dark figure casually discarded the body in its hand, the corpse being consumed by Karmic Fire before it even hit the ground.

“Why would people from the Lei family in West Continent take interest in a little girl like her?”

“Qi Zhonglu, what are you up to?”

Not long ago, Qi Zhonglu’s discovery of a Spirit Ore vein brought trouble that led to his death; after that, as a sign of goodwill for taking care of his daughter Sun Ruofan, he offered the Spirit Ore as a generous gift.

And now, without a sound, he’d drawn the attention from the Lei family in West Continent.

This Qi Zhonglu’s knack for courting trouble was truly something.

Pei Jinye retracted his gaze.

With a wave of his hand,

a dozen sparrows quickly landed on the telephone pole, perfectly positioned to keep an eye on both Sun Ruofan and the elder couple.

Suddenly, Pei Jinye looked up.

An unexpected guest had arrived at Jiang’s Family Back Mountain.

No, it was an old acquaintance.

…

“Elder Jiang, may I have a moment? Jinye and I are old friends,” said Qi Zhonglu, shamelessly leaving behind a note.
