Multi-Gene

The old man gazed at David with a thoughtful expression. David's capability had exceeded his expectations.

For a kid who wasn't even twenty years of age to have practised two high earth grade techniques, it revealed just how powerful his comprehension ability was.

It was a pity comprehension couldn't be forcefully taken otherwise, he wouldn't have used this method to prolong his lifespan just to comprehend the heaven realm technique.

A crazed expression flashed briefly before disappearing without a trace. He shook his head slightly and ignored David entirely. As for David successfully comprehending the heaven grade technique, the thought hadn't flashed in his mind even for a second.

Comprehending an earth grade technique was already difficult. But a heaven grade technique is on a whole new level. Its difficulty was more than a million times harder than an earth grade technique. It was practically impossible to even think about comprehending heaven ranked technique even in a thousand years.

The old man waited and time passed. A month passed and David was still stuck in a daze, in the same position. His hands outstretched, touching the bright star.

Another month passed, during this period the casualty of disciples who died within the trial was beginning to disturb the others.

Within a few days, very rare people went ahead with the trial since the death rate had already surpassed 30 percent. Since they weren't sure what rewards it would bring, very few people chose to risk their lives for it.

Suddenly, within the large starry skyspace, a bright gateway appeared and a man with thick eyebrows walked through the door, appearing into the starry sky space.

The old man Ouyang Fen glanced at the man. And a cold smirk appeared on his face.

"I didn't expect for a peak-earth rank expert to slip past my restrictions."

The man whose eyebrows was thin had a started expression on his face. He hadn't thought he would be seen through in an instant.

He glanced sideways and saw the old man. "Senior, this junior extends his gree-"

He hadn't finished his sentence when a massive force descended on him. The man's eyes opened wide and immediately tried to use his mental strength to break through the binding, but he was unable to move a muscle.

"S-senior, this junior mean no harm to you senior!" The man shouted as he struggled desperately.

"You are almost at the end of your lifespan, therefore your body is useless to me, but your spirit is quite tasty." As soon as these words rang out, a massive skull with green flames blowing forth from its eyes nose and mouth appeared and drifted above the man with the thick eyebrows.

"Senior! Please! I beg of you, I don't mean you any harm! I came in here by mistake, you have to trust me. I can be your slave for ten thousand years, how's that senior!?"

The old man suddenly chuckled. "You have left than thirty moons to live, and you dare bargain with me?"

The green flaming skull opened its mouth.

Kekekeke!

A powerful suction force erupted from within the skull's mouth and sucked in. At that moment, the middle-aged man felt as though his entire body was being held by something while his soul was being sucked.

But his feelings were right, his soul was literally being sucked by then green flames. A ray of multicoloured bright light was being sucked from the body of the middle-aged man and in just three seconds, the man had been sucked dry entirely.

Flop!

The middle-aged man's dead body slammed to the ground, dead.

The old man's eyes closed as though he had just taken a delicious meal. "Although bland, it's somewhat delectable."

The ground wriggled and immediately swallowed up the body of the man. After a while, the old man opened his kind eyes. A smile of benevolence appeared on his face. He was truly happy after his meal.

Another month passed and suddenly, two doors appeared at almost the same time, but at separate locations, revealing two disciples wearing differing robes.

One was a girl, while the other was a guy. They both had looks of confusion on their faces as they gazed around at the starry space they were in.

Although they looked confused, neither of them seem panicked. Their eyes contained calmness that wasn't in correspondence with their age.

"Haha, two talented youngsters... Welcome." The old man smiled as he gazed at the girl in his left and the boy in his right.

"Who are you?" The boy calmly asked as he gazed at the old man.

The girl remained silent but her eyes remained on the boy for a few seconds before she turned to stare at the old man.

"I am Ouyang Fen, who you refer to as the sacred forefather." The old man smiled gently as he said.

"The scared forefather is suspected to be long dead or might have successfully crossed the world boundary. Either way, the sacred forefathers isn't on this earth any longer, so who are you truly?." The girl placed a foot backwards and her fingers formed hand seals.

The guy heard her words and similarly got into a battle stance. Although they had a slight falling, the two of them, it could wait.

An imperceptible cold look seems to have slipped past the old man's eyes, but it might have been just an illusion.

"You are quite knowledgeable young girl. For you to know about the world's boundary, seems your identity isn't simple."

"What you said is true, but also false. When I tried to break the world's boundary, I was ambushed by an old friend. After an intense life and death battle, I was finally able to escape with my life, but I had been grievously injured so I spent the remaining time I have left to practice the Urban grade technique I found. But I was unable to comprehend it and died in the process.." The old man said and he shook his head with a pained expression.
