Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Chapter 63: Chapter 63 Sound Wave Skill

Playing the flute horizontally, playing the Xiao vertically, Lin Shen was stupefied when the man took out a Xiao and placed it to his lips to demonstrate.

He didn’t know what others saw, but from his perspective, a man nearly as tall as Wei Wufu, just a bit skinnier, held something pixelated in his hands, slowly bringing it to his mouth.

The sight was a bit hard on Lin Shen’s eyes, yet he couldn’t stop examining the censored Xiao.

A Xiao with the Fire Seed on it, this surprised Lin Shen greatly, it was a pity that he couldn’t see what the Xiao actually looked like.

“Have you ever played the Xiao?” the man asked, fiddling with the Xiao.

“No,” Lin Shen hurriedly shook his head repeatedly.

“No matter, I’ll teach you if there’s a chance in the future,” the man said indifferently, “The rule is simple, you sit there and listen to me play the Xiao. After the tune is finished, if you can still sit there, you will have passed my challenge.”

“Can I not listen?” If someone had said this to Lin Shen before he saw that Xiao, he would have definitely considered them insane.

But there was a Fire Seed on that Xiao, it must not be simple, better to be cautious.

“Sure, leave immediately and never show up before my sister again,” the man said indifferently.

Lin Shen could possibly stay away from Ye Yuzhen, but leaving was absolutely not an option for him. How could he willingly leave such a safe place to survive the beast tide?

“Since you can’t bear to leave my sister, listen to my tune,” the man assumed Lin Shen couldn’t bear to part with Ye Yuzhen and was willing to risk listening to his tune; he nodded silently and placed the Xiao to his lips.

Ye Yuzhen’s eyes brightened upon seeing Lin Shen’s actions.

“I didn’t agree yet!” Lin Shen couldn’t get the words out in time because the man’s Xiao had already begun emitting a deep and melodious sound.

The very moment the Xiao’s sound started, Lin Shen felt all his pores tremble suddenly, his heart also gave a fierce throb.

“What is this sorcery?” Lin Shen was secretly shocked. He knew music could affect people’s emotions, but how could the sound of the man’s Xiao cause physical reactions in his body?

“It’s not an illusion, the sound of the Xiao is really affecting my body.” As the sound of the Xiao continued to resonate, Lin Shen could clearly feel the changes in his body.

Vibration!

Lin Shen felt like every cell in his body was vibrating, giving him the sensation of being a piece of glass about to shatter.

“Does something like the Sound Wave Skill really exist in the world? Could the Fire Seed on that Xiao actually be the Sound Wave Skill?” The more Lin Shen thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

If he could obtain that Xiao and its Fire Seed, would he be able to kill silently in any place his music could reach? That would be safer and more effective than firing a gun.

Unfortunately, now was not the time to think about these things. Lin Shen’s head buzzed from the vibrations, if they continued, even if his body could endure, his brain would get shaken into a concussion.

Just as Lin Shen was preparing to undergo Base Mutation and combat the sound wave’s vibrations with his Steel Carapace, the Evolution Theory within him started circulating his inner Strength on its own.

That power flowed with the rhythm of the tune and vibrated at the same frequency, the resonance making the vibrations within Lin Shen’s body even more intense.

“Use your Base Mutation power to counter the sound wave attack,” Ye Yuzhen couldn’t help but speak out to remind him.

Wei Wufu’s serene eyes stayed fixed on Lin Shen, one hand on the hilt of his knife, ready to draw at a moment’s notice should Lin Shen’s life be in danger.

Even though they were in the same room, Ye Yuzhen and Wei Wufu were not affected by the sound waves at all.

Lin Shen, who had not undergone Base Mutation, initially experienced increased shaking of his body, which surprisingly began to lessen after a while.

Evolution Theory, in its unexpected and profound nature, utilized the power of the sound wave oscillations to refine his body, gradually allowing Lin Shen to adapt to those vibrations.

Under the vibrations of the inner power’s baptism, Lin Shen felt as if tiny impurities were being expelled from his body, making his flesh and blood purer and increasingly capable of withstanding the sound waves’ oscillations.

His body was actually mutating to adapt to the sound waves’ vibrations, rather than eliminating them.

Suddenly, a bizarre idea emerged in Lin Shen’s mind.

The Evolution Theory he practiced was a Base Mutation art, and apart from this particular Base Mutation art called Evolution Theory, there was once another famous theory with the same name.

Lin Shen roughly knew that the Evolution Theory discussed adaptation to nature, survival of the fittest, and the forced mutation and evolution of life.

Lin Shen only had a rough understanding, which might not be accurate, and there were also controversies surrounding Evolution Theory itself.

But that was not the point; the point was that the Base Mutation art of Evolution Theory he cultivated seemed to coincide with the principles of that other Evolution Theory.

Amidst the oscillations of the sound waves, Evolution Theory harnessed the power of those waves to refine his flesh and blood, enabling him to gradually withstand the vibrations, which actually somewhat resembled the theory of the other Evolution Theory.

However, as far as Lin Shen knew, Evolution Theory, as one of the five classic Base Mutation arts, had a very wide dissemination, and there were many people who practiced it; he had never heard of such an effect before.

“Could it be that this flawed version of Evolution Theory I’m practicing is actually yielding results?” Lin Shen wondered in amazement.

As the power vibrated and flowed within, continuously refining his body, Lin Shen felt his flesh and blood growing significantly stronger.

Every time Mutators underwent Base Mutation, their flesh and blood became stronger, but the primary enhancement was in the outer layer of Carapace.

The limits of hardness and toughness were mainly represented by that outer Carapace; the flesh and blood itself couldn’t reach the upper limits of hardness and toughness.

With the refining of the vibrations, Lin Shen distinctly felt his flesh and blood becoming stronger, especially his resistance to sound wave oscillations.

The man was surprised to see that Lin Shen didn’t undergo Base Mutation and was resisting his sound wave attacks with only his flesh and blood.

The sound wave attacks produced by this man’s Xiao were very special; the Xiao itself did not possess any destructive power but transformed the man’s own strength into the power of sound wave oscillations. The stronger the man’s own strength, the stronger the sound wave oscillations he could produce; thus the Xiao served as a power converter.

Although the man only used thirty percent of his strength, he was a top-tier Crystal Base, with strength values reaching 40. Even just thirty percent of that strength was not something ordinary Steel Mutators could withstand.

And that was assuming the Steel Mutators used their Base Mutation power to counter with a Steel Body.

Having already obtained certain information about Lin Shen from Ye Yuzhen, the man knew that Lin Shen had not undergone Base Mutation before the age of twenty and at best was now a Steel Mutator, which is why he had controlled his playing of the Xiao.

Unexpectedly, Lin Shen’s performance took him by surprise, withstanding his sound wave attacks at thirty percent strength with just flesh and blood, and he seemed quite unaffected.

“This kid isn’t exactly like what Yuzhen described!” the man thought to himself as he played the Xiao and observed Lin Shen, inwardly marveling.

Ye Yuzhen’s gaze towards Lin Shen also became somewhat complicated; Lin Shen was becoming more and more of a stranger to her.
