Inch of Radiance Vol 1 Chapter 16.2

Book 1 Chapter 16.2 – B1 Gene Medicine

“When do I use this B1 Gene Medicine, could it be right now?” Li Yang asked.

When the white-bearded elder heard this, he immediately replied, “No, no, no, of course not right now. When utilizing this B1 Medicine, there are many things that we have to watch out for. First of all, the stronger the person utilizing it, the higher the chance of survival. In addition, the amount of strength gained increases as well.”

Li Yang slightly furrowed his eyebrows, and did not understand what the white-bearded elder was implying.

When the white-bearded elder saw this, he immediately began to explain in a more detailed manner. “The B1 Gene Medicine is unrivaled in its ability to increase the energy of one’s physical body. At the minimum, it would increase by two or three thousand crystals of energy, and there has been six to seven thousand crystals obtained on the higher end. The ones that increased the most in energy were the ones that were previously more powerful as well.”

Suddenly, the white-bearded elder let out a sigh before saying, “Pity, however, that those undergoing the death penalty at the highest only had 30 crystals of energy!”

Soon after, the white-bearded elder laughed and said, “That’s why i arranged for those under the death penalty to first undergo training, a crazy type of training. Only when their bodies became stronger did I allow them to use the B1 Gene Medicine. Currently, our base’s second layer is used solely for their training. Currently, there are thirteen individuals who are on the death penalty training in there, and among them, there is one who has reached over 50 crystals of energy. Although right now you have already surpa.s.sed seventy crystals, I still hope that you will train for a period of time. The stronger the energy of the physical body, the better!”

Li Yang finally understood the white-bearded elder’s intentions.

“You want me to continue to train for a period of time, and then allow me to use the B1 Gene Medicine right?” Li Yang had a hint of a smile on the corners of his lips.

The white-bearded elder nodded his head and said, “RIght, I am extremely curious as to what will happen if the B1 Gene Medicine is used on one with an energy surpa.s.sing 100 crystals. Once it succeeds, how much would it improve one’s physical body’s energy?” White the white-bearded elder was speaking, his right hand pressed down on the b.u.t.ton on his desk.

“Teacher, do you need something?” A youth looked at his teacher in reverence. He was quite clear that the gene medicine was developed purely by his teacher, and that him and the others were simply a.s.sisting him.

The white-bearded elder nodded his head and said, “Bring him to the second layer and let him train first.” The white-bearded elder immediately turned around to face Li Yang. “You won’t run right? There are only powerless scholars here who barely have the strength to feed chickens, so if you go mad, there really aren’t many people who can stop you.”

Li Yang Laughed in disdain. “I won’t be that stupid. This base is designed similarly to my Heavenly Net base in the past; both entering and exiting requires an iris scan. Without you guys, it is impossible for me to move a single step within this base.” Although his mouth said those words, Li Yang was coldly laughing within his heart. “s.h.i.tty old man, with such a cla.s.sified area, the guards are most likely all at least fourth-level and fifth-level experts. Old b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you’re even an expert that formed a golden dan. Barely able to feed chickens? Heng,however, if I really did run, you really can’t do anything.” If Li Yang were to run, then he would be depending on the escaping technique.

…

Li Yang followed that youth out of the white-bearded elder’s office, but that white-bearded elder’s phone suddenly rang from within his office.

“Wei, so it’s General w.a.n.g ah, Li Yang? Haha, isn’t it just another one on the death penalty, why are you so nervous. Since I requested for him to come here, you don’t have to care anymore. Don’t tell me you don’t know the privileges the country have entrusted me with?” The white-bearded impatiently spoke into the phone.

The individual on the other end of the phone was indeed General w.a.n.g, and General w.a.n.g knew what the white-bearded elder did with those on death penalty. This was precisely why he became even more worried.

“Venerable Chairman, I only called to remind you that this Li Yang’s temperament is not the same as in the past. I just worry that after taking the medicine, he will escape during a mission. After using the Gene Medicine, Li Yang’s physical body energy will greatly increase. Added to his original internal energy as well as the “Xiao Li Flying Dagger’, the power will become even more frightening. If the current him can easily kill fourth-ranked experts, then what about after Li Yang uses the Gene Medicine? I really cannot fathom what will happen after he loses control of himself!” General w.a.n.g reminded.

The white-bearded elder said with confidence. “Relax, what kind of methods do you think I am capable of? Has anyone on the death penalty escaped in the past? Haven’t they all obediently carried out the missions one by one?”

“En, I know, however I still feel a bit uncomfortable. I just wanted to remind Venerable Chairman. Since Venerable Chairman has confidence, then I won’t dawdle on groundless fears anymore.” Shortly after, General w.a.n.g helplessly hung up the phone. Although that old chairman was extremely formidable in science, his temper was also extremely haughty. It might just be a eccentricity developed from his accomplishments.

The white-haired elder gently hung up the phone and laughed with confidence before saying in a low voice, “A little brat that hasn’t even reached the Xiantian realm is going to be difficult to control? General w.a.n.g ah, how could you possibly know how powerful cultivators are?”

…

As days pa.s.sed one after another, Li Yang continuously trained.

Biological Research Base number 2, within the biggest training room on the second floor.

“…479, 480…” Li Yang was doing frog jumps under four times gravity, and his hands were holding a 50 jin iron rod. Although it was only 50 jin, under four times gravity, it was extremely frightening.

Fortunately, Li Yang’s internal energy had already reached the third layer, and his several hundred crystals of internal energy had already made him much more powerful than in the past. Waves of internal qi operated within him, and under the operation of internal qi, although his whole body was covered in sweat, he still continued like before. Training like this, he killed two birds with one stone. Not only did he train his muscles, but his internal energy also improved rapidly.

“2000!” Li Yang violently tossed the iron rod in his hands aside, and walked towards the corner of the training room.

Li Yang was quite satisfied and sat down on the floor without any worries. With his body leaning against the ice cold wall, his seemingly exhausted internal energy began to frantically circulate, and the worldly spiritual essence continuously rushed into Li Yang’s body. However, Li Yang truly did not care much about what was happening to his body.

A strong alcoholic drink was placed in the corner, and it was way stronger than the drinks he had back when he was a part of ‘Dragon Fang’. This was what Li Yang requested from the research inst.i.tute, and fortunately, it was quite cheap so the base satisfied his request.

Li Yang twisted open the cap, and abruptly poured the strong drink into his mouth despite the painful heat rushing through his chest.

“Xue, have you been well?” Li Yang’s feelings for Xue were so deep that it allowed him to ignore the scorching heat. Day after day, other than training, Li Yang only trained some more. However, whenever he rested, he would immediately think of Xue. He would think back to the hospital where Xue would care for him in every possible way, and think about Xue who painfully waited for him, yet did not even know his real name.

Li Yang fiercely lifted his head and poured the rest of the contents into his mouth.

“Training!” Only training would numb himself, and Li Yang forcefully inhaled the worldly spiritual essence, immediately circulating the internal qi within his body. Li Yang lifted up an enormous boulder and began to furiously train…
