Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Tian Xun told Lin Shen that Wei had come to bring him an Ascension Egg, and initially wanted to keep Wei on Paradise Island, but Wei insisted on returning to Old Yu\'s village and did not stay on Paradise Island.

Tian Xun also told Wei about the possibility of Lin Shen\'s misfortune, but Wei did not believe it, saying he would wait in the village for Lin Shen\'s return.

Lin Shen now just wanted to meet Wei as soon as possible, and then go to Meidu Star to pick up Yun.

Yun had teleported away from Giant Ring Star and could only be on Meidu Star, but since Lin Shen had been unconscious for over a hundred days, he didn\'t know if Yun was still waiting there for him.

Upon returning to Old Yu\'s village, Old Yu\'s reaction to seeing Lin Shen was as if he had seen a ghost.

Nevertheless, being shrewd, Old Yu\'s look of astonishment quickly turned into a smile, "Lord Lin, rumors outside said you met your demise in the Giant God Cemetery, but I never believed them. I\'ve lived so many years and seen countless people, and with your face showing great fortune, you\'re not someone with a short life. Look, I was right, here you are back, and looking even better than before."

"You\'re still sharp, Old Yu," Lin Shen responded politely and then asked, "My friend is here, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I personally went to receive him when he came. He\'s been staying with me these days, and I\'ve been taking good care of him, you can rest assured. I didn\'t see him come out today, he should still be in the house. I\'ll take you there," Old Yu hastened to say.

Lin Shen arrived at the stone house where Wei was staying, knocked on the door, and as it creaked open, there stood Wei Wufu, whom he hadn\'t seen in a long time.

"Wei!" Being on an alien world, seeing an old friend again, Lin Shen couldn\'t help feeling moved.

"Don\'t cry, there\'s no tissue," Wei said.

"Cry? Nonsense!" Lin Shen laughed and cried, having been only slightly moved with no real intention to weep.

Wei\'s comment made Lin Shen appear somewhat childish.

"Here, your stuff." After sending Old Yu away and closing the stone house door, Wei handed Lin Shen a box.

Knowing Wei Wufu\'s temperament, Lin Shen didn\'t say much, took out a Five Elements Fruit and a Five Elements Tree King Fruit and handed them to him, "Eat these, they will increase your attributes."

Fortunately, these fruits had been left in his own room at Paradise Palace, not taken to the Giant God Cemetery, or else they probably wouldn\'t have been preserved either.

Without any nonsense, Wei took the fruits and immediately wanted to swallow both at once.

"Don\'t rush, eat this one now, and the other after your ascension," Lin Shen quickly stopped Wei.

After hearing this, Wei tossed back the regular Five Elements Fruit and swallowed the Five Elements Tree King Fruit.

"You… have ascended…" Lin Shen was taken aback.

But then he came to understand immediately; having been unconscious for over a hundred days, it was normal for Wei to have ascended.

Wei nodded and summoned his Life Base.

Wei\'s Life Base looked very peculiar, actually a white robe, woven as if of crystal silk and seamless as if celestial.

"What kind of Life Base is this? What\'s it used for?" Lin Shen curiously inquired as he examined the soft white robe floating in the air.

This was the first time he had seen such a type of Life Base.

"Name... White Robe... Base Talent... White Robe upon...," Wei Wufu directly told Lin Shen about the effects of the Base Talent.

Ordinary people wouldn\'t readily reveal their Base Talents to anyone, fearing they could be targeted.

Wei Wufu was so candid about it, which truly showed he had no defenses against Lin Shen.

"I\'ve only heard of \'Yellow Robe upon,\' how come it\'s \'White Robe upon\' for you?" Lin Shen laughed as he spoke.

"Pretty good," said Wei Wufu.

"Continue," Lin Shen urged Wei Wufu, keen to know what his second Life Base was.

"That\'s all," Wei Wufu shook his head.

"That\'s all? How can that be? I\'m talking about your second Life Base. Show it to me, are you still keeping secrets from me?" Lin Shen thought Wei Wufu hadn\'t understood and explained again.

"No," Wei Wufu shook his head again.

"No?" Lin Shen stared at Wei Wufu, speechless for a long moment.

He had guessed what was happening; Wei Wufu didn\'t have a Double Life Base, so there was only one possibility—he hadn\'t used Primeval Eggs for Ascension.

The only reason why Wei Wufu wouldn\'t use a Primeval Egg for Ascension was if there was no second egg to use, only the one, which meant that Wei Wufu had left that egg for him and hadn\'t ascended with a Primeval Egg himself.

"Unexpected..." Wei Wufu was no liar, and when he uttered those two words, it was completely out of rhythm with his usual way of speaking.

Lin Shen looked at Wei Wufu without a word, because anything said now seemed superfluous.

Wei Wufu had outright forsaken a Life Base, which for Ascenders, was no different from sacrificing a life.

One less Life Base meant at least one less Base Talent in a battle to the death, and that slight gap could mean the difference between life and death.

If it were Lin Shen, he certainly wouldn\'t be willing to give up the Primeval Egg to someone else, yet Wei Wufu had done so, as if it were the most ordinary thing, and even seemed a bit embarrassed after being discovered.

Lin Shen couldn\'t describe what he felt at that moment; Wei Wufu time and again redefined his understanding of \'people\' as a species.

"One is indeed good, unique, without equal in this world." Lin Shen smiled, but deep inside he vowed silently—he could not repay this favor. Ascension was already set in stone, and he didn\'t have the ability to add another Life Base for Wei Wufu. This person, he had to keep safe.

"Without equal in this world," Wei Wufu smiled too.

"By the way, Wei, you take this first to use. I haven\'t ascended yet, and I don\'t need it for now." Lin Shen tossed the mutated Seventh Turn Spirit Base Nightglow Flower to Wei and added, "Take a look at its abilities and familiarize yourself with it. We need to take a trip to Meidu Star soon; I have to pick someone up."

"Alright," Wei took the Nightglow Flower and activated it with his strength.

The Nightglow Flower immediately burst into a seven-colored radiance, appearing like a dreamy flower from a fairy tale kingdom.

Wei told Lin Shen that the Nightglow Flower had only one Base Talent, named Light of Night, which, according to the description, could illuminate the darkness.

This ability gave Lin Shen a slight jolt. If it had been before arriving at Giant Ring Star, he would have found this ability quite perplexing.

But after arriving at Giant Ring Star, he understood that darkness could be quite terrifying.

The Nightglow Flower held the power to illuminate the darkness; whether it could light up the night of Giant Ring Star remained to be seen.
