Chapter 155: 114, Activate Star Tower_2

Lin Qing suddenly realized and nodded.

Chen Guang spoke softly, “Only by entering the Chuanxing Tower can you truly start mastering it. From now on, I can appear in reality, but only you can see me, Master. Do you need to reset me, your guide?”

At this moment, Lin Qing could feel that he indeed had the power to command Chen Guang, the intelligent life attached to the Chuanxing Tower, and he could reset her with just a thought.

“No need.”

Lin Qing shook his head, “First, let me understand the benefits of the Chuanxing Tower’s Trial Space, shall we?”

Chen Guang nodded slightly and pointed towards the misty depths where a faint path could be seen and said, “Master, please go ahead.”

Lin Qing followed the path for a while and discovered a massive stone door looming ahead—how huge it was, and so ancient and magnificent that it stood erect in this world.

Two giant characters could be seen on the door.

[Genes]

“Hanzi?” Lin Qing raised an eyebrow slightly.

“The Chuanxing Tower automatically adjusts according to the master’s civilization and mother tongue, including units of time, length, and weight which have all been converted as well.”

Chen Guang explained, “Master, currently you only meet the standards in the aspect of genes, which just meets the lowest standard for cultivation by the Chuanxing Tower. Hence, you can only see this Genetic Gate. Your telekinesis and authority are still not up to standard.”

“Oh?” Lin Qing realized.

“Master, you can try pushing the door.”

Chen Guang said, “This is also considered the first challenge. You can only truly face the internal tests after you push open these two doors.”

Lin Qing stepped forward and tried pushing. However, the huge stone door did not budge.

He took a deep breath, activated the Free Body Battle Technique, and his pupils burst into pale blue light; his muscles swelled rapidly, releasing all his strength.

With his current power, he could push open objects weighing hundreds of tons!

But the stone doors only moved slowly inward by about a dozen centimeters and then stopped, revealing only a crack.

The deeper he pushed, the more difficult it became.

“Master, being able to push it open a crack is already an achievement. I estimate that when your strength reaches about eleven times its current level, you will truly be successful,” analyzed Chen Guang.

“Eleven times?”

Lin Qing was astonished, “That would require waiting until after the Genetic Awakening to be successful, right?”

“That’s right,” Chen Guang nodded slightly, “The candidates for the Divine Position are meant to reach the level of Genetic Reorganization after their Genetic Awakening to possibly be competent.”

“Is there no other benefit before pushing the door?” Lin Qing asked.

“There is.” Chen Guang said, “Master, you can channel the energy within your body onto these doors and give it a try.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing stepped forward and did as instructed. A large number of characters and embossed patterns suddenly began to emerge on the two stone doors.

“What is this…” Lin Qing looked carefully and was taken aback.

On the two stone doors, each revealed the cultivation method of a Combat Skill.

“Six Star Sinking Movements”

“Endless Heavenly Brilliance”

The “Six Star Sinking Movements” Combat Skill was mainly based on strength and defense.

The “Endless Heavenly Brilliance” Combat Skill, on the other hand, was a throwing-based offensive technique.

Chen Guang looked up at the Combat Skills and said, “These are the Combat Skills that the Chuanxing Tower selected for you based on your genes, Combat Skill, personal prowess, compatibility, and so on, deciding they were the most suitable for you.”

“The most suitable for me?” Lin Qing thought it over carefully and it did seem correct.

His current weakness was actually defense, relying solely on the defense of the Free Body, but the Free Body’s strongest feature was its unrestrained movement.

At the same time, he needed strong offensive capabilities to complement Instantaneous Light—the “Six Star Sinking Movements” indeed fit well, covering his weaknesses.

While “Endless Heavenly Brilliance” was suitable for long-range killing, perfectly fitting with the ‘Heavenly Orbital Coordinates’ Genetic Ability.

Even Superpower Material could also match well with “Endless Heavenly Brilliance”.

Thinking this, these two Combat Skills were truly suitable for his situation, compensating for weaknesses while enhancing strengths.

“Both of these Combat Skills, like Free Body, belong to Basic Combat Techniques.”

Chen Guang continued, “Although they don’t have a simplified version for decomposition, since they are Combat Skills that the Chuanxing Tower thinks are suitable for master, there should be hope for you to successfully cultivate them.”

Lin Qing nodded slightly, “I’ll try my best.”

Free Body was not adept at attacking, and its defense was also mediocre, with sizable flaws even in its ‘Free Body’ transformation for preserving life as a statue.

Free Body mainly involves transformation and advantages in bodily movement techniques.

If he could learn these two Combat Skills that paired with Genetic Abilities, his strength would definitely see a huge boost.

“After the master pushes open the door, there will definitely be higher-level ‘Original-level Battle Techniques’ following, so this is not just a benefit from the Chuanxing Tower but also a hidden test,” Chen Guang said. “Moreover, the Chuanxing Tower is meant to nurture the master towards the most suitable Star Sky Divine Office, which all have various stringent requirements. As long as one can pass the tests of the Chuanxing Tower, a future job appointment is guaranteed.”

She paused and added, “Of course, the battle techniques taught by the Chuanxing Tower must not be divulged, or the Chuanxing Tower will automatically revoke the recognition of its master.”

Lin Qing hummed in acknowledgment and asked, “The higher-level ones are ‘Original-level Battle Techniques’?”

“Yes.”

Chen Guang nodded and explained, “Free Body, Divine Transformation, Six Star Sinking Movements, all of these belong to Basic Battle Techniques, suitable for Genetic Awakened to cultivate. Higher-level Original-level Battle Techniques are generally for Original Life to cultivate, but those at the Genetic Reorganization Level also have a glimmer of hope to successfully cultivate them.”

“The ‘Star Undying Body,’ which is among the top three at the Chaoyang Martial Arts Hall, is also an Original-level Battle Technique?” Lin Qing couldn’t help but ask.

“Correct,” Chen Guang nodded. “However, the Star Undying Body is a very powerful technique among Original-level Battle Techniques. The master has a Talent for Free Body Battle Techniques, so you must learn the Star Undying Body in the future if you have the chance.”

Lin Qing slightly nodded.

He still had no idea how to learn this legendary battle technique.

But at least one needed to be at the Genetic Reorganization Level to even have a sliver of hope of learning it, so he wasn’t in a hurry.

“These two Battle Techniques…”

Lin Qing examined the two stone doors and their respective Battle Techniques for a moment before deciding to first learn “Endless Heavenly Brilliance.”

“Endless Heavenly Brilliance” would perfectly complement the Genetic Ability of the Heavenly Orb Monarch Bloodline.

“I wonder when I’ll be able to grasp it…”

Lin Qing wasn’t sure in his heart; he could only start learning and see.

Although these were Battle Techniques chosen by the Chuanxing Tower suited for him, after all, he was starting from zero without simplified breakdowns of the techniques to assist him, which naturally made it much more difficult.

He could only take his time.

Right then, Lin Qing focused on the bas-reliefs on the doors. After a while, the spiritual meanings embedded in the reliefs transformed into Visualization diagrams in his mind.

To his surprise, the clarity and depth of these spiritual meanings were many times greater than when he learned the original “Free Body,” making the initial learning phase much easier.

“Entering the door shouldn’t be as difficult as I imagined,” Lin Qing couldn’t help feeling a bit joyful.

“Master, after all, this is the Chuanxing Tower,” Chen Guang said. “When it comes to learning Battle Techniques, even the genius of the Intelligent Star People is just operating under these conditions.”

“Very good.”

Lin Qing revealed a satisfied smile.

After learning the Battle Technique, he looked around and, seeing no need to stay any longer, said, “I’ll leave the Chuanxing Tower space for now.”

“Yes,” Chen Guang nodded.

…

After his consciousness returned, Lin Qing slowly opened his eyes to find himself back in the cultivation room of his apartment.

He couldn’t help but inwardly marvel.

No wonder the Star Tower was so important. Although what was learned couldn’t be shared, its benefits to an individual were unparalleled.

“Endless Heavenly Brilliance” isn’t yet within my reach, so I might as well pre-exercise Genetic Abilities first.

“Continue.”

Lin Qing picked up an Energy Stabilizer, injected himself, and once again absorbed a portion of energy from the Second Source. Then he circulated the Star Refining Skill and continued to practice the Bloodline Evolution Method.

After excavating one Genetic Ability, he could attempt to unearth a second.

However, without sufficient bloodline density, the chances of successful excavation would drop by more than tenfold.

For him, pre-exercising was unrelated to probabilities.

An hour later.

Lin Qing sensed the tip of the iceberg of another Genetic Ability.

He knew without checking the Entropy panel that it must be the Fourth Energy Level Genetic Ability “Superpower Material.”

“Order.”

“Pre-exercise, Bloodline Evolution Ability—Heavenly Orb Monarch ‘Superpower Material’!”
