The next two days passed on with Qing Tian continuing his tests and finishing the meat of the Black-Tooth beasts.
[Qing Tian: Not evolved.
Status: None.
Life span: 200 years.
Required for evolution: 100 geno points.
Geno points gained: 28 Ordinary Geno Points, 25 Primitive Geno Points,
Beast souls gained: (3) Mutant Black-Tooth Beast (Shuriken)]
With no need for the natural primitive creature, Qing Tian sold it at the market and left the artificial one alone to become a Mutant creature.
He gathered his stuff and went out of his room, finally ready to go to the Sea and practice his Universal Kun Peng Technique.
"Where are the Iron Carps?"
Qing Tian looked around and gazed at the water before slowly walking in and pulling out his dagger. It wasn't even a minute since Qing Tian entered the water but he had already entered the Small Success Stage of the Universal Kun Peng Technique.
He swam in the water almost completely unhindered. He moved quickly under the water like a fish, his body becoming more sensitive to the water currents, allowing him to make use of them to go even faster.
His skill even turned a little water proof, increasing his speed in the water by a bit.
'Where are the Iron Carps?' Qing Tian asked again as he searched the water.
An Iron Carp was like a fish made of metal, it's nose being a long needle it used to attack other fish and people.
The range in strength from Ordinary to Mutant, a good creature for Qing Tian to begin gathering some Mutant meat.
Using his Heavenly Vision Technique, Qing Tian finally found a large group of fish in the distance.
And then, kicking off like a torpedo, Qing Tian sped towards the group of fish, killing four in an instant.
[Primitive creature Iron Carp killed. No beast soul gained. Eat its meat to gain zero to ten Primitive geno points randomly.]
[Primitive creature Iron Carp killed. Beast soul of Iron Carp gained. Eat its meat to gain zero to ten Primitive geno points randomly.]
[Primitive creature Iron Carp killed. Beast soul of Iron Carp gained. Eat its meat to gain zero to ten Primitive geno points randomly.]
[Mutant creature Iron Carp killed. Beast soul of Iron Carp gained. Eat its meat to gain zero to ten Mutant geno points randomly.]
'No Ordinary?' thought Qing Tian as he quickly gained the four fish and continued hunting for a while, eventually hunting two more primitive, five mutant, and seven ordinary.
With such a good haul, Qing Tian got all the beast souls of the Mutant fish, only four from the Primitive, and four from the Ordinary.
Going back to his base, Qing Tian began practicing there until he finished all the meat and sold whatever remained.
The food lasted Qing Tian for a week, his Ordinary and Primitive points being filled up about halfway and the Mutant Geno points up to 26.
He already refined the fish beast souls and continued studying the artificial Primitive Black-Tooth beast that became a Mutant creature two days before.
Qing Tian performed the tests and the Artificial Mutant was even weaker than the theorized strength of a natural Mutant Black-Tooth. He left the Artificial Mutant alone after finding that it's skin was rather weak, allowing him to still easily hurt the mutant creature.
With this in mind, Qing Tian decided to let it become a Sacred-Blood creature.
After a bit of training, Qing Tian went out again to hunt some small creatures, continuing his lonesome time in Seashell Shelter.
"I still need to practice with my Universal Kun Peng Technique and fill up the rest of my Ordinary and Primitive Geno points," said Qing Tian quietly as he looked for the next smallest creature that could fill up his points.
It will take a while before Qing Tian can find a Sacred-Blood creature and kill it. Especially when they are sought after by many.
'The Sacred-Blood Creatures are hard to usually find, the Super creatures will be even worse,' thought Qing Tian. 'The problem that will arise in the future will really be a problem…'
Whilst Qing Tian went on to find the next smallest creature to kill and fill up his Ordinary and Primitive Geno Points, Qing Tian thought about the Sanctuary problem.
The dwindling numbers of the creatures, especially Sacred-Blood and Super creatures. The chance of Sacred-Blood creatures leaving offspring is only one in a thousand and it's even worse for the super creatures.
Qing Tian had a way to fix this problem, but he had to make a large trip to many points in the sanctuary to make this problem get fixed.
In a couple of minutes, Qing Tian found himself at the sea once more.
Here, Qing Tian will find the Marble Fish, an Ordinary- Mutant fish that's 3 feet long and skin like marble. Ordinary Marble Fish were a white color, Primitives were red and the Mutants were a silverish grey.
'A single fish will take me almost a whole day to eat,' thought Qing Tian as he looked at the fish from a distance.
This will end up taking him a while, but he also can't do much about it since these are the third smallest creatures in the area.
'After these creatures, I should go on a small trip as soon as I manage to get the artificial Sacred-Blood beast soul,' thought Qing Tian as he slowly slid into the water.
Once in the water, Qing Tian's speed increased and he went to fight against the Marble Fish.
Qing Tian killed many like before, selling them at the market would be the best way for him to get rid of the meat he won't be able to eat right away.
'The Mutant fish are quite fast,' thought Qing Tian as he tried to swim even faster to try and kill the mutant Marble Fish.
Qing Tian was able to keep up with the Mutant fish for a while after he managed to kill it, he felt his body become different.
'The Large Success Stage already?'
Qing Tian felt that the water didn't even weaken or hinder him at all anymore. It felt pleasant and he hardly felt that it was cold anymore. His body was more water proof and his skin became even more sensitive to the water currents.
When Qing Tian moved in the water, he felt as if he had become one with it. It felt like the water was helping him out as he swam around and tried going faster.
'This should allow me to quickly deal with the Mutant creatures,' thought Qing Tian as he swam around and began killing the Marble Fish.
After a couple of hours, Qing Tian finally stepped out of the water with a large haul.
'10 Ordinary, 8 Primitive, and 13 Mutants,' thought Qing Tian as he carried them all over to the market, selling all but one of each.
Since they are large in size and one was barely enough for a single meal, Qing Tian was going to have to hunt a lot in the water for the next couple of days.
Two weeks passed in the blink of an eye and Qing Tian was close to entering the Great Perfection stage of the Universal Kun Peng Technique.
Qing Tian had killed so many Marble Fish that he was even tired of it.
The excess meat was sold and even a small amount of beast souls were sold.
Receiving a beast soul every time a head went flying began to get boring for Qing Tian. Something which was shocking to hear for many people.
But it was an understandable thought, beast souls don't really help get strong right away. So Qing Tian was planning on sealing a bit of his luck so that he can stress less and enjoy the game- cough! Life a bit more.
However, it was about a Sacred-Blood creature or a Super creature, Qing Tian will obviously remove the seal and get the beast soul no matter what.
Calling up his status after eating the last three marble fish at the end of the day, Qing Tian listened closely to his status.
[Qing Tian: Not evolved.
Status: None.
Life span: 200 years.
Required for evolution: 100 geno points.
Geno points gained: 81 Ordinary Geno Points, 85 Primitive Geno Points, 52 Mutant Geno Points
Beast souls gained: (3) Mutant Black-Tooth Beast (Shuriken), (7) Mutant Iron Carp (Needle), (28) Mutant Marble Fish (Spear), (23) Primitive Marble Fish, (19) Ordinary Marble Fish]
"Damn, that's a lot of Marble Fish," said Qing Tian with a chuckle as he brought out his Nightmare Demon Pot and used it to finally have a try at making a Super beast soul.
'I will use as many of the beast souls as I can,' thought Qing Tian as he quickly threw a Mutant Marble Fish beast soul into the Nightmare Demon Pot and refined it with the other Marble Fish.
The process was going smooth, the strength of the Mutant Marble Fish slowly increasing and eventually becoming a Sacred-Blood Marble Fish.
The refining continued and the Sacred-Blood beast soul was on its way to become a Super beast soul.
'Damn…'
Qing Tian cursed as he felt the beast soul get unstable, so with a quick move of his spiritual energy, Qing Tian sent three Mutant Iron Carps and used them for the Sacred-Blood beast soul.
The beast soul calmed down by its energy began to fall, so with another quick wave of his hand, Qing Tian fused the Sacred-Blood beast soul with a Mutant Iron Carp.
Fuaah!
In an instant, the two different fish were merged together and the end product was a Marble Fish with a needle for a nose and a metallic sheen to its body.
It's name changed to something much more simple, Metallic Marble Fish.
However, what really surprised Qing Tian was that it finally became a Super beast soul.
"Great!"
Qing Tian stood up happily and looked at the beast soul with joy.
'It feels a bit boring this way, but not being able to make a Super beast soul isn't out of the question anymore.'
However, this type of grind was useless for Qing Tian and wasn't even helping him grow stronger. This type of grinding took too long and it was beast soul inefficient.
'There must be a different way,' thought Qing Tian as he stood up and took back the Nightmare Demon Pot.
…
Qing Tian glanced at the Artificial Mutant Black-Tooth beast that was getting closer and closer to becoming a Sacred-Blood.
"Just a couple more minutes," muttered Qing Tian as he took out the newly made Super beast soul.
Clank!
When the Super Metallic Marble Fish beast soul came out, a spear appeared in Qing Tian's hands.
The spearhead was pitch black in color and the body itself was like black and grey polished marble.
"Damn… I can feel it's sharpness," said Qing Tian with a nervous smile, knowing that this thing is even sharper than the Z-Steel alloy sword.
The tip of the spear was sharp and thin as a needle, making it a very dangerous item to poke someone with.
Qing Tian waved the spear around a bit, increasing his mastery over it to Grandmaster in an instant.
"This spear is even sharper than the Z-Steel Alloy Sword," commented Qing Tian as he sent away the spear. 'I'll have to act discreetly with this stupidly strong spear and not turn any head my way.'
After returning the spear Beast soul to his Sea of consciousness and killing the artificial Sacred-Blood Black-Tooth for its beast soul and meat, Qing Tian made a ring with some inscriptions placed on it.
He put the ring on his index finger and felt his luck become partially sealed.
'Great! This will work out perfectly,' thought Qing Tian as he left his room after eating the Sacred-Blood meat and gaining 10 Sacred-Blood Geno Points.
…
After getting some traveling equipment from the market, Qing Tian made his way to the exit of the shelter before suddenly being called out.
"You! Handsome man with a red mark on his forehead!"
Qing Tian paused and turned to look at the young 16 year old looking man who called out to him.
"Good! You stopped," said the young man with a tired look. He jogged over to Qing Tian and slowly inspected him from head to toe. "You look like a strong warrior, can you protect me?"
"Protect you from what, exactly?"
Qing Tian noticed the man's wariness of the people around him, so he obviously needed more than just protection from the creatures.
"I… the beasts…" said the man with a nervous smile.
"The beasts?" Qing Tian raised an eyebrow and squinted his eyes. "Just the beasts? Are you sure about that?"
"…" The young man remained quiet, his eyes averting Qing Tian's gaze.
Qing Tian thought about it and didn't mind doing this little escort. It's easy money and he can travel around whilst killing and eating the creatures he comes across.
"Fine, I'll protect you, but if I end up having to fight people, you pay extra," said Qing Tian as he turned around to leave.
"Great! Just wait a second, one more person is coming along with us," said the young man before running off.
