Chapter 2712 Ice Geno Core
Back in the lands of the Very High, Li Keer and Exquisite were sitting next to each other. Both of them looked bewildered and uncertain.
“Third Sister, you’re telling that when you woke up again, the God Spirit Storm was gone?” Li Keer asked, looking at Exquisite with sheer disbelief.
Exquisite’s expression was strange. “That is what Han Sen told .”
“Weird. With your will, Third Sister, you shouldn’t have fallen into a coma even if your body collapsed. That simply shouldn’t be possible. How did you slip into a coma from re exhaustion? And how did the God Spirit Storm suddenly disappear? This is so weird...” Li Keer looked as if she couldn’t believe it. After pausing, she said, “We’re fortunate that these unlikely events did occur, however. If they hadn’t, you and Han Sen would have been in real danger.”
Li Keer wasn’t suspicious of Han Sen. She thought she could feel Han Sen’s mind, and she didn’t sense anything weird going on in his head. If he’d been plotting sothing devious, she should have been able to sense it.
But Exquisite had grown suspicious. She distinctly rembered Han Sen knocking her unconscious. And even more importantly, when Han Sen knocked her out, she had no longer been able to sense what Han Sen was thinking. That made Exquisite suspicious about Han Sen’s mind. She now worried that she didn’t have full access to what was really going on in his head. Otherwise, even if she had passed out, she would have known what Han Sen was doing. And she could have prevented him from knocking her out in the first place.
And the God Spirit Storm should have continued to follow Han Sen. Why had it waited until she was unconscious to retreat? The timing seed terribly inconvenient.
“Han Sen... What did he do?” Exquisite’s mood was very conflicted, but she didn’t ntion her suspicions to Li Keer.
When Han Sen found so alone ti, he took out the six deified geno cores and began studying them.
Of the six deified geno cores, three of them had a lightning elent. Two of them were fire, and one of them was ice.
When most creatures refined geno cores, they tended to select ones that matched their specific elent. Otherwise, they would end up damaging their bodies by absorbing the power of an elent that clashed with their innate power.
But the elents of Han Sen’s body were very balanced. None of his elents stood out more than any others, and he had so of everything. Therefore, he didn’t have to be too picky with which elents he absorbed. He could refine any geno core he found with few complications.
“I think I will save these three lightning elent geno cores for Little Silver. I’m afraid his talents are a little lacking. If he refines these three, his evolution should be expedited, and he’ll be given the boost he needs to excel.” Han Sen set the three lightning elent geno cores aside.
There were two fire geno cores and one that was ice. As he stared at the three geno cores, Han Sen hesitated. He selected the ice geno core. After all, Jadeskin had connections to the ice elent. It had grown more attuned to that power as he developed.
He picked up the ice geno core. It was only the size of an adult’s fist, but it looked like a big diamond with countless facets. It sparkled beautifully.
Inside the geno core, falling snowflakes were visible. And sohow, those snowflakes seed to outline a white, nearly transparent body. It was like a snow lady from a legend.
“I have heard that only deified elites can refine geno cores. I wonder if I can do it right now?” Still holding his ice geno core, Han Sen activated Jadeskin and tried to absorb the power of the geno core.
The results were disappointing. Jadeskin was unable to refine the power of the geno core. The object sat in his palm, silent and unmoving.
“The easy way failed, so I guess we’ll have to do this the hard way.” Han Sen picked up the ice geno core, popped it into his mouth, and swallowed it. Then he cast Consu. He was trying to force the ice geno core to break down.
Consu had only just started running when Han Sen felt ice-cold power explode inside his stomach. It froze his stomach, then began to surge through the rest of his body.
In the blink of an eye, Han Sen’s entire body turned to ice. His whole form was enveloped in a sheet of ice. It was like he had been wrapped up in diamonds.
Han Sen was shocked. He felt as if his lifeforce itself was starting to solidify in the intense cold. He quickly cast Jadeskin to fight against the terrifyingly cold power.
Jadeskin had high resistance against the cold. Even so, Han Sen’s cells slowed so much that he thought they had stopped working. It made Han Sen feel as if he wanted to sleep. His eyelids were as heavy, as if he had gone several days without sleeping, and it was everything he could do to keep them from closing. He could have gone to sleep right where he was standing.
In that drowsy state, Han Sen could faintly hear a woman’s voice whispering near his ear, saying, “Go to sleep... Go to sleep...”
Her soothing voice almost pushed Han Sen into unconsciousness. Even though Jadeskin was running fitfully, he couldn’t concentrate enough to keep it going.
“Oh, no! This cold power has a relaxing effect...” Han Sen thought, realizing what had happened. If he fell asleep now, there was a chance he might never wake up.
“I cannot go to sleep... I can’t sleep no matter what... Right now, Jadeskin is barely keeping my lifeforce chugging along. If I fall asleep, the cells of my body will freeze and put into a deep sleep. It will be hard for to wake up again,” Han Sen warned himself. He told himself repeatedly to keep Jadeskin running.
Although he knew he couldn’t sleep, he was becoming more and more exhausted. He was going to fall asleep any second.
His body was becoming weaker and weaker, and he needed to use his will to support himself. He couldn’t let himself fall asleep, no matter what.
So indeterminate amount of ti later, Han Sen felt the tiredness begin to fade. His mind beca increasingly awake and aware. The cold finally receded, and his body started to feel warm again.
Han Sen knew he had passed the hardest part of the trial, but that didn’t an he could let his vigilance falter. He kept casting Jadeskin, and he continued to absorb the foreign power.
As Jadeskin absorbed that power, Han Sen noticed that it wasn’t exhibiting any changes. The power was being absorbed, but it wasn’t lting into Jadeskin as he had expected. Rather, it seed to be remaining an independent power within Han Sen’s body.
Han Sen opened his eyes, and his heart stuttered. There were snowflake symbols on his skin, etched all across his body, like tattoos.
Han Sen could feel the power inside him, and he knew he could control it. But he couldn’t use it quite like a normal geno art, or even incorporate its power into one of his own geno arts.
“Deified geno cores are pretty mystical. No wonder people sotis call them Talent Skill Stones. Right now, it’s like I have an ice elent deified skill. I don’t know what this ice elent skill can do, but I suppose it must have sothing to do with cold and sleep powers.” Han Sen knew that if he used the geno art’s power, it would require ti to charge up again. It wasn’t like a geno art that he could fuel continually with his own energy.
“Who should I use it on?” Han Sen considered that question, but he couldn’t find a suitable target. So, he put it out of his mind for the mont. He realized that he hadn’t visited Horizontal Evil, which he had planned to do so ti ago. Since Exquisite and Li Keer were not around, he decided to go back to that mysterious place to et with Horizontal Evil again.
