Chapter 1203 - 542: The Way to Leave the Shadow World

Ding Huaiyi rushed into the Bloodline Road while putting on the strange helmet.

As the helmet was put on, gray and white images suddenly appeared on the visor.

These images were actually scenes from the Bloodline Road!

"This device can actually see the outside world in a place filled with dark attribute energy!"

Ding Huaiyi was greatly shocked, finding it somewhat unbelievable.

However, he soon noticed something wrong; the scene in front of him was swaying like water waves.

As figures ran past him, the images became even clearer!

At this moment, Ding Huaiyi instantly understood the principle of this device!

"It’s sonar detection!"

As a senior official of the Guangfu Military, Ding Huaiyi was very familiar with this kind of equipment.

This was clearly a process of using high-frequency wave emission to capture reflected signals and reconstruct three-dimensional space information.

And this process had long been studied based on bat bionic science before the apocalypse flood.

To talk about a more common device, a hospital’s ultrasound actually uses the principle of ultrasonic imaging!

Evidently, the device he was currently wearing was obviously for this purpose!

"Such a device must be designed by someone extremely familiar with dark attribute energy."

"It’s Zhang Mi, the Shadow Chairman of the Spiritual Ability Sect!"

Meanwhile, others also discovered the secret of this device, and immediately showed expressions of surprise and delight.

"This is ultrasonic imaging equipment; it can identify the surrounding environment without relying on light!"

"Damn, the Spiritual Ability Sect actually has such equipment?"

"This is clearly rune technology; ordinary ultrasonic imaging could never have such a large detection range and precision."

"Imaging within a hundred-meter range is already enough!"

"Quick, catch the people from the Spiritual Ability Sect and seize more imaging equipment!"

Someone reacted and immediately whispered.

Ding Huaiyi also suddenly became alert, his figure flashed as he shouted, "Everyone, follow me!"

The troops behind followed in succession, charging towards the Bloodline Road to hunt down the disciples of the Spiritual Ability Sect.

For a moment, people from the Water God Sect, Earth Mother Sect, Furong Valley, and Baoshan City all rushed out.

In the blink of an eye, the entrance to the Bloodline Road was empty, leaving only a few anchored large ships drifting on the water.

Who knows how long it took, suddenly a huge black dragon emerged from underwater.

Its body twisted as it crawled out of the water, slithered to the front of these few ships, and let out a roar.

Then quickly pursued towards the Bloodline Road.

Meanwhile, in the Brain Lake, within a shadow.

Huang Guangzu sat on a rock, looked around, and finally confirmed that the black dragon had left completely.

He let out a sigh of relief and finally calmed down.

He tried to absorb superpower energy to recover the energy that was completely depleted inside him.

However, as soon as he touched his body, his expression changed slightly.

"Not good, I’m still in the Shadow World, and three-dimensional objects can’t be taken out at all!"

His expression changed slightly, and his face was full of anxiety.

"Does this mean I’m trapped in the Shadow World?"

"No, this can’t happen."

"I must leave this Shadow World before that black dragon comes back."

Thinking of this, Huang Guangzu began to try to mobilize his inner superpower.

However, it was no use; in the Shadow World, apart from dark attribute energy, no other energy could be called upon.

His light attribute superpower was severely suppressed!

"Damn, damn, it’s completely useless!"

"Am I going to be trapped and die in this Shadow World?"

The joy of surviving a disaster had not yet faded when a shadow of death once again loomed over Huang Guangzu!

He couldn’t accept it, and for a moment, his mentality began to collapse.

"No, help, is there anyone?"

"I don’t want to die here, I want to get out, I want to get out."

Huang Guangzu cried out, but as soon as the noise got a little louder.

Suddenly he felt as if something was swimming around in the surroundings.

Huang Guangzu was startled: "No, there are also those shadow beasts in the Shadow World!"

He quickly shut up and hurriedly hid.

Because he was in the Shadow World, he also became a shadow.

So the shadow beasts didn’t notice his presence.

A few shadow beasts circled nearby, and not finding the hiding Huang Guangzu, they swam away again.

Huang Guangzu was trembling with fear, and at this moment, he dared not make noise or try any other means.

Transformed into a shadow, he was completely trapped in this Shadow World!

He was not Liang Yuan, who had an inventory not restricted by the Shadow World, nor did he have a Sumeru Space to hide in.

At this moment, in the Sumeru Space.

Liang Yuan sat cross-legged, similarly with a feeling of surviving a disaster on his face.

"Just a little more!"

Thinking back to that terrifying 100-point mutated black dragon, Liang Yuan’s heart was still in shock.

Who could have imagined that on this Floating Island, there would be such a terrifying mutant beast hidden?

And it was a dark attribute mutant beast.

Liang Yuan even suspected that this black dragon had probably refined the brain core here.

Otherwise, how could this creature have reached a terrifying degree of 100 points so quickly?

For mutant beasts of the same attribute, refining the Floating Island’s Brain Core or Heart Core would rapidly increase their power.

Just like Chang Yuntao of Mist City, after refining the Brain Core, his individual power almost crushed all the Earth Mother Sect experts who came to the island.

If it weren’t for him being in the key moment of just refining the Heart Core, it’s uncertain whether Liang Yuan and the others could have escaped from Mist City.

As for why the sword-tailed sea snake in the Mirage Snake Space didn’t make a dramatic leap and become extremely powerful.

The main reason was still because the sword-tailed sea snake’s own attribute did not match the Heart Core attribute of the Mirage Snake Space.

But even so, the sword-tailed sea snake’s improvement speed was not slow at all.

At the very least, before Liang Yuan and the others entered the Mirage Snake Space, the Gene Species expert alliance within the space had no way to eliminate it.

Even Wu Yaobang couldn’t do anything about it.

Right now, Li Qinghua just acquired the Heart Core of the Mirage Snake Space.

His synergy with the Heart Core is extremely high, and it’s likely that his strength will rapidly improve in a short amount of time!

Liang Yuan sat in the Sumeru Space, glancing at the current changes in his attributes.

Host: Liang Yuan

Constitution: 91

Power: 98

Agility: 94

Spirit: 96.5

Free Gene Points: 0

Genetic Species: Hundred-Change Demon Ape, Ice Bear, Sumeru Blue Ant

Genetic Map: Hundred-Change Demon Ape (Initial Tier), Ice Bear (Initial Tier), Sumeru Blue Ant (Initial Tier)

Talent: Genetic Transformation, Sumeru Space

Skills: ...

Points: 3921

"All attributes have broken through 90 points!"

"But it’s useless, without reaching 100 points in Spiritual Power, I can’t withstand that black dragon."

At this moment, Liang Yuan realized that the black dragon’s Main Attribute must be Spirit.

Its ability to drag creatures into the Shadow World must rely on Spiritual Power.

If my Spiritual Power hasn’t reached 100 points, I can’t withstand that skill.

"Among the people who landed on the island this time, I’m afraid no one can return alive."

Liang Yuan took a deep breath, contemplating the current methods to break the situation.

"I’ve already run out of Points, but even if I still had Points, I couldn’t guarantee that I would draw Spiritual Power Gene Attribute Points."

"There’s one last way!"

Liang Yuan’s eyes flashed slightly, quickly taking out a large pool of dark blood from his inventory!

This blood floated in the air, resembling an irregular black hole absorbing all the light.

This blood contained a large amount of Dark Attribute energy!

"Using my own body as a furnace, I’ll consume this Dark Attribute blood and refine a Dark Attribute Genetic Species now!"

"Once I master the Dark Attribute Genetic Species, with my Genetic Mutability Talent, I can freely manipulate Dark Attribute energy."

"With this, the Shadow World naturally can’t trap me!"

"Not only that, but I can also destroy the black dragon and maybe even refine a Brain Core from its body."

"Besides, this place is dark as night, without a glimmer of light. But if I condense a Dark Attribute Genetic Species, it will mean I’ve fully adapted here, and I can search for the Heart Core without restraint."

The key is that right now, he has no other way to leave the Shadow World, aside from this path.

Of course, Liang Yuan had another clumsy way, which is to endure.

He could hide in the Sumeru Space and wait for the causal transfer to accumulate Points.

As it is, even without doing anything, Yangshan’s slaughterhouse would provide ten thousand Points daily.

This equates to getting one Gene Attribute Point every day.

As long as he has patience, he will eventually draw the Spiritual Power Gene Attribute Points and increase the Spirit Attribute to 100 points!

Then, he would be able to break free from the Shadow World crafted by the black dragon!

But undoubtedly, this method requires time.

What he lacks the most right now is time.

The outside world is too volatile, and Liang Yuan can’t just sit here and wait.

"Can’t wait! I’ll condense the Dark Attribute Genetic Species right away. I’m not sure what kind of Genetic Map this Dark Attribute blood from an unknown creature will allow me to create."

Liang Yuan’s eyes flashed slightly with no more hesitation, immediately gathering the blood and gulping it all down at once!

This was the first time he used himself as a furnace to refine a Genetic Species.

Generally, these methods come with genetic inheritance.

Since Liang Yuan initially didn’t possess Dark Attribute Genetic Ability, he naturally had no related inheritance.

But he had long since obtained similar inheritance from Qiu Gongrong.

A few days ago, he received related inheritance from Li Qinghua, Ding Yan, and Zhao Kai.

The four methods correspond to four different superpower attributes.

However, Liang Yuan summarized them and found the four methods to be fundamentally the same.

The Yangshan Research and Development team could construct Genetic Furnaces through physical means, indicating these refinement methods shared similarities.

Liang Yuan was merely using his body as a replacement for a Genetic Furnace,

The process wasn’t complicated, and because he had repeatedly observed the construction of a Genetic Furnace, Liang Yuan was well acquainted with it.

"Gurgle, gurgle—"

Sounds of gurgling came from within Liang Yuan.

His Qi and Blood raged, turning into a furnace to burn away this Dark Attribute blood.

Within the blood, discarded impurities were purified and expelled by the Qi and Blood Furnace.

Vast amounts of Dark Attribute genes were compressed and condensed.

At the micro level, strands of genetic chains compressed together.

Granular Genetic Species were continuously gathering to form!

Time ticked away little by little.

Inside the Sumeru Space, with no sun or moon, who knows how much time had passed.

Suddenly, at one moment, the long-sitting Liang Yuan’s entire body began to change!

The light surrounding him suddenly collapsed.

He himself resembled a black hole, rapidly absorbing all the light in his surroundings.

In a blink of an eye, Liang Yuan, who was once three-dimensional, suddenly became thin as a cicada’s wing.

Ultimately, he transformed into just a shadow, leaving behind a flat human-shaped shadow on the ground!

"Hahaha, I did it!"

The shadow burst out in laughter, the voice that of Liang Yuan!

He successfully condensed the Dark Attribute Genetic Species and mastered the ability to transform into a shadow!

Thus, the Shadow World could no longer trap him!

The shadow twisted and flickered, and in the next moment, darted out of the space, reappearing in the black Shadow World outside.

Liang Yuan, with a thought, immediately retrieved the Sumeru Ring back into his inventory.

Within the Shadow World, Liang Yuan transformed into a shadow, and now astonishingly discovered that he could perceive everything around him!
