"I should leave Jade Dragon Mountains now," mumbled Qing Tian as he chuckled.

With the Drillingbird's Life Essence in his pocket, Qing Tian flew into the air with his new wings, the Diamond-Feathered Dragon's wings.

At a speed that didn't belong to a Sacred-Blood wing beast soul, Qing Tian flew through the air rapidly. His speed nearing the flight speed of the slowest Super bird.

'I'm close to breaking through to Great Perfection in my Universal Kun Peng Technique,' thought Qing Tian as he majestically flew through the air with might and finesse.

Using the wind itself and movement technique, Qing Tian traveled through the air rapidly.

'That armor I got from the Moonlight Lizard… I should use it to hide my identity while traveling around the First God's Sanctuary,' thought Qing Tian.

With maxing out his geno points coming to a completion, Qing Tian thought about finally completing the rest of his plans for this First God's Sanctuary. The first one being to set up the biggest array he has ever attempted to increase the production of creatures and make more Super and Sacred-Blood creatures appear.

The other one was to look for his mother, Queen, Huangfu Pingqing, Qin Xuan, Yang Manli, Wang Mengmeng, Xue Xi, and if possible, Ji Yanran and her friend Qu Lili. Qing Tian wasn't too sure when it was that both Ji Yanran and Qu Lili were supposed to evolve to the next God's Sanctuary, but Qing Tian is sure that they evolved earlier than Han Sen.

'I should start farming Life Essences,' thought Qing Tian as he searched for a small creature.

Qing Tian wasn't planning to let his future wives remain weak and keep their genes imperfect. Ji Yanran might be fine with not fighting, but her genes need to be the best of the best. This is also one of the reasons he is planning on researching stuff like the reason why Han Sen was able to eat the Life Essences like nothing after eating the Life Essence that mother Golden Growler left.

He wanted to know what is so special about a mother Super creature willingly giving up their Life Essence.

Farming Life Essences through the Star Crystal also won't be that efficient. By the time he is able to have enough Life Essences for every one of the women he knows, a whole 10 years would have passed by.

He would need to increase his speed in laying out the array since the work will be rapid and the Sacred and Super creature will increase by 20 times in just a month. In one year, they will multiply by 10, slowly balancing itself out by how much super and Sacred creatures are being killed.

All so that there's not an overpopulation of Super and Sacred and so that there is also not an extinction of them, although it's impossible thanks to the Sanctuaries automatic nursery that brings back the extinct creatures and super creatures.

'I need to act quick,' thought Qing Tian as he flew to the ground and picked up a random small creature.

The creature Qing Tian had grabbed was a small Ordinary Horned Rabbit. Qing Tian fed it the Star Crystal and began to fly around with it before finally coming up across a small creek.

With a small smile, Qing Tian began flying down and making his wings disappear.

Qing Tian walked around as if he owned the place.

With a total fitness of 34, nothing could pose a threat to Qing Tian anymore, besides 2nd and 3rd Gen Super creatures. However, there are no Super creatures at the creek Qing Tian was at and that made him walk around with a small amount of alertness.

After walking for a while, Qing Tian finally found the figure he was looking for at this small creek. With a smile on his face, Qing Tian began to walk around quietly, no sound coming from his feet or movements. As if a small layer separated Qing Tian from the world, isolating the sound inside the barrier from the outside world.

Walking over slowly, Qing Tian stood behind Han Sen for a couple of seconds before leaning in.

"Boo."

Han Sen jumped to the side in an instant with wide eyes before recognizing Qing Tian's face. Han Sen sighed and lowered the dagger in his hands before looking at Qing Tian with surprise.

"How did you get here? Weren't you at a shelter near the sea?" Han Sen sat down and went back to grabbing black beetles and cutting them open before sucking out their meat.

Qing Tian smiled and placed down the Horned Rabbit before grabbing a black beetle himself and cutting it open. Eating the jelly-like meat, Qing Tian looked at Han Sen and said, "I helped a man and his sister get to another shelter and I made my way over here after getting a map."

Han Sen stopped what he was doing and looked at Qing Tian like he was crazy. What Tian had done was a suicidal mission especially when there are many creatures roaming the paths from shelter to shelter.

Wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that a Sacred-blood creature would appear from nowhere and eat him up in an instant.

Han Sen would never think that Qing Tian had already maxed out all his geno points and was only missing the Super geno points.

"I'm surprised you're still alive in front of me," said Han Sen as he unconsciously grabbed the nearest black beetle and cut it open without looking, unaware that what he actually grabbed was a golden beetle.

Qing Tian looked at the golden beetle within Han Sen's hand with a weird look. He turned to look at Han Sen and found him frozen in place as he stared right at the golden beetle with shocked eyes.

"What happened?" asked Qing Tian, only keeping up pretenses despite knowing that this is the moment Han Sen's story is finally beginning to take shape.

Han Sen looked at the beetle in his hands before turning to Qing Tian, asking something different from what happened in the novel, "Is this a variant?"

Variants are creatures that are stronger than their own species, turning them into their leaders. Something which mostly happens with the Mutant creatures and above, however...

Weak creatures also have that one variant that is stronger than the rest. They would end up leading the group of weak creatures as their king. Though such cases are really rare, being one in 1,000,000.

"I… I just got a sacred-blood beast soul..." muttered Han Sen as he brought out the knife and stabbed at the black beetle once more.

Clink!

Hitting something inside the golden beetle, Han Sen looked at Qing Tian once more before looking back at the golden beetle and dissecting it.

After a short while, Han Sen took out a black crystal the size of a pigeon egg.

Han Sen looked at the crystal for a while before tossing it over to Qing Tian.

"Check what it is, I will eat this meat now," said Han Sen as he licked his lips before sucking out the jelly meat.

Looking at the black crystal, Qing Tian used his Heavenly Vision Technique.

[Black Crystal]

[Type: Armor (Sealed)]

[Current Abilities: Increase grade of creature when swallowed...]

Qing Tian held tight to the black crystal before sighing and thinking about his crystal, 'My crystal is definitely stronger, even in terms of how much it strengthens a creature, but because of their bloodline purity, it isn't much either way.'

"It seems like an interesting item. When I placed it near a black beetle, it quickly scurried over to try and eat it," said Qing Tian as he placed the Black Crystal inside Han Sen's bag. "Make sure to test some stuff with it and keep a close eye on it.

If you find anything unusual about the crystal, we can perform some tests. I already found a crystal not long ago as well, but I fed it to this bunny and now I'm waiting for something to happen."

Qing Tian decided to tell both lies and truths to Han Sen so that they could both travel around in the future together. This will most likely guarantee Qing Tian to keep people from getting close to Han Sen and stopping them from telling Han Sen that his father is still alive. It can also ensure that he ends up meeting some key characters he might miss.

'There's even the chance that Han Sen had missed something that I might be able to notice…'

"Must be something great for you to say that," said Han Sen, knowing how Qing Tian is. "But I'm also surprised at how you found a crystal like this one before."

"Yeah, it's a bit weird. I haven't heard of anyone reporting any unusual crystals, so we should be careful," said Qing Tian as he grabbed a black beetle.

"We need to know what these do. I will take this one and we will have to find out what effects they have. We will share whatever we find with these whenever something new is found out," said Han Sen as he took out the black crystal in his bag.

After pocketing the black crystal, Han Sen looked at Qing Tian with a smile before saying, "Let us head over to Steel Armor Shelter, but it would be better if you head in alone."

"Are you being bullied?" asked Qing Tian with furrowed eyebrows.

He's aware of Han Sen being called Assfreak, but Han Sen himself hasn't told him anything about it yet. All Qing Tian can do for now is feign ignorance.

Han Sen looked at Qing Tian for a minute before sighing, "I made a mistake when I had first been brought to God's Sanctuary. I was heading out to my first adventure, filled with energy and hope to get some companions to hunt. I couldn't wait to have some mild fun whilst hunting dangerous creatures with companions who will eventually become friends..

Then, I ran into the first creature of God's Sanctuary. However..."

Knowing what Han Sen was going to say, Qing Tian decided to finish it up for him, "That creature was actually a shapeshifted human and you had stabbed it. That's a pretty rooky mistake, the other party didn't die, right?"

"No, but it was even worse than stabbing some random person. This person was a woman and one from an influential family. She's also the strongest in the shelter," Han Sen rubbed his forehead, clearly stressed about the ordeal.

"I must say Sen, you have terrible luck. Maybe it was so that you can get the sacred-blood beast soul and sacred-blood meat today." Qing Tian smiled and pointed at the golden shell in Han Sen's hands.

"Maybe so, but I have now lost my chance to make any companions for hunting creatures," said Han Sen with a shake of his head.

Han Sen had the hopes of having some type of fun whilst hunting with friends to take down creatures. It was one of his hopes ever since he had begun getting trained by Qing Tian.

"Haha. It's a good thing I am here now then. That's the main reason why I came over here," said Qing Tian as he patted Han Sen's back with a smile.

"I look forward to it, Brother Tian," said Han Sen as he bumped fists with Qing Tian. Quite happy that Qing Tian wasn't going to stop talking to him at all because he was being called Assfreak or that he might be bullied.

Han Sen had always felt lonely despite not wishing to think about it. Ever since he get removed from his private school, Han Sen felt alone until he got closer to Qing Tian and began to treat him more or less like an older brother despite being a couple of days older than Qing Tian.

"However, I can't have you get bullied as well at Steel Armor Shelter."

"No can do buddy. I made a promise to myself and your mother to not leave you alone and to make your time in the sanctuaries enjoyable," said Qing Tian as he chuckled.

It had been awhile since he felt like a brother. The last time he acted like one was with Goku(Dragon Ball) and Genryusai Yamamoto(Bleach).

Han Sen felt like tearing but he could only chuckled. Now, Han Sen could finally accomplish one of the goals he had in mind before entering God's Sanctuary.

Hunt with someone and have some fun whilst doing so.

The only thing Qing Tian had to do now was search for information online and using his deductive skills and his artistic skills, Qing Tian needed to pile up some information on locations and slowly construct a map of the entirety of First God's Sanctuary.

This will help him out on setting up the huge array and be able to set it up in just less than a year. This map will also help him to search for some of the girls and stop him from wasting time.

"Starting tomorrow, I will take a small break. It's been a while since I have been home after all," said Qing Tian as he showed Han Sen the golden necklace Han Yan had given him.

"It's fine. In the meantime, I will be doing some stuff and studying this black crystal we found," said Han Sen as he picked up his bag.

"When I come back to the sanctuaries, we can start going together to the stations to come to the Sanctuary," said Qing Tian, using this unique chance to start getting close to Qin Xuan.

Han Sen looked at Qing Tian with surprise for a few seconds before laughing, "Hahaha! Alright, I'll wait for you to rest enough to be ready to come back to the sanctuary."
