Boss-Level Gene Armament, Huge Improvement

Inside the Stone Mann Tower.

After the announcement from the voice in the sky, the elite trial began.

On the gray-white ground in front of Lu Yuan, stone men appeared again.

However, this time the stone men were no longer gray-white, but deep gray.

After the stone men appeared, they clenched their fists with both hands, tapped them against their chests, then roared and stomped their feet on the ground.

Dong!

The ground exploded, and his body rushed towards Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan's pupils shrank slightly.

"So fast!"

The speed of these Deep Gray Stone Men was almost at the level of 50% tempering.

Although it was still a bit worse than Lu Yuan, it was much faster than the gray-white stone men in the ordinary trial.

The Deep Gray Stone Man appeared in front of Lu Yuan and punched out, striking towards Lu Yuan.

The fist wind howled, blowing Lu Yuan's hair.

Lu Yuan's Greatsword slashed out, colliding with the Deep Gray Stone Man's fist.

Boom!!

Amidst the roar, cracks appeared on the Deep Gray Stone Man's fist, and his body flew backward.

Lu Yuan felt the power of the Deep Gray Stone Man and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The attack intensity was not weak, but the damage it could cause to Lu Yuan was very limited.

It was a good thing, otherwise, it would be a bit difficult for him to break into deeper levels.

After confirming the strength of the Deep Gray Stone Man, Lu Yuan held his sword and stepped forward, slashing continuously at the stone man, shattering his head.

"Elite Level 1 Trial passed, reward: 10 drops of Moonstone Spirit Dew."

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up, there were actually 10 drops?

This reward was ten times that of the ordinary Level 1 trial.

Wouldn't Level 2 be even more?

"Trial-taker XI9201, do you want to proceed to the Elite Level 2 Trial? If you refuse, you will leave the Stone Mann Tower."

"Proceed with the trial!"

Lu Yuan agreed directly.

As Lu Yuan expected, there were 10 Deep Gray Stone Men in the Level 2 elite trial.

The combined combat power of 10 Deep Gray Stone Men was even stronger than 100 gray-white stone men.

Lu Yuan spent a considerable amount of time to kill them all.

"Elite Level 2 Trial passed, reward: 100 drops of Moonstone Spirit Dew, one drop of Moonstone Essence."

"Hmm? Something different?"

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up as he looked at the sky.

A pile of Moonstone Spirit Dew appeared, with a drop of silver liquid in the center.

Moonstone Essence.

Lu Yuan put the Moonstone Essence in his hand and obtained information about it.

Moonstone Essence is the essence refined from Moonstone Spirit Dew. Its effects are similar to Moonstone Spirit Dew. It can improve cultivation and heal injuries. Using it frequently can also strengthen one's defense.

However, the effect of Moonstone Essence is a hundred times that of Moonstone Spirit Dew!

Not just the effect of improving cultivation.

The healing effect of Moonstone Essence is also extremely strong, even more powerful than a superior Healing Potion.

Lu Yuan carefully put away the Moonstone Essence, not using it directly.

If he used this when he was seriously injured, it might save his life.

Then Lu Yuan absorbed 100 drops of Moonstone Spirit Dew.

At this moment, his tempering level finally reached 41%.

After absorbing the Moonstone Spirit Dew, Lu Yuan began the Elite Level 3 Trial.

100 Deep Gray Stone Men appeared.

Lu Yuan spent a lot of time finally killing them all.

Although his defense was extremely strong, and the Deep Gray Stone Men didn't cause much damage to Lu Yuan, the continuous battle with 100 Deep Gray Stone Men still left Lu Yuan with serious injuries.

He used that drop of Moonstone Essence to maintain his peak condition.

Elite Level 3 Trial passed. This time, Lu Yuan obtained 1000 drops of Moonstone Spirit Dew and 10 drops of Moonstone Essence.

Lu Yuan absorbed the Moonstone Spirit Dew, and his tempering level reached 48%.

Not only that, after absorbing more than a thousand drops of Moonstone Spirit Dew, Lu Yuan could clearly feel that his body was becoming stronger under the nourishment of the Moonstone Spirit Dew.

Muscles, bones, and skin all became more resilient and powerful than before.

Defense increased by nearly 10%, and strength and speed also increased.

It should be noted that this was not an improvement brought about by Lu Yuan's tempering of his genes, but an additional improvement!

This was all due to the effect of the Moonstone Spirit Dew.

After the Level 3 Elite Trial, there was no higher-level trial that Lu Yuan had originally imagined, but rather a Level 4 Elite Trial.

Lu Yuan naturally chose to agree.

The opponents in the Level 4 Elite Trial were a full 1000 Deep Gray Stone Men.

Even a powerhouse who had engraved an Elite Gene and had a 100% tempering level would probably have weak legs when facing so many Deep Gray Stone Men.

After all, killing so many Stone Men would consume too much spirit energy.

Where would an Apprentice-level Gene Warrior get so much spirit energy?

A thousand Deep Gray Stone Men charged towards Lu Yuan, the earth trembling beneath their feet.

Lu Yuan was even a little worried that he might be trampled to death by them.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan discovered that as his tempering level continued to increase, coupled with the Moonstone Spirit Dew enhancing his own defensive capabilities.

At this moment, while running the Black Iron Body, the Deep Gray Stone Men were no longer able to break Lu Yuan's defense.

This made Lu Yuan happy.

He completely disregarded his own defense, constantly swinging his sword to strike, killing the Deep Gray Stone Men one by one.

When he consumed too much spirit energy, he absorbed Spirit Crystals to recover it.

Lu Yuan had the feeling he had when he fell into the Ant Nest, swinging his sword until he was numb.

He didn't know how long it had been, but the last Deep Gray Stone Man was killed by Lu Yuan's sword.

A voice rang out in the sky.

"Elite Level 4 Trial passed, reward: 100 drops of Moonstone Essence, Gene Armament: Moon Stone."

In front of Lu Yuan, 100 drops of silver Moonstone Essence floated, along with a crescent-shaped moon-white stone.

This moon-white crescent stone flickered with deep cyan light.

Lu Yuan's eyes were immediately attracted by this deep cyan light, his face full of shock.

"Cyan, is it a Boss-level Gene Armament?!"

Generally, Elite-level Gene Armaments would emit a green light, while Boss-level Gene Armaments would emit a cyan light.

It should be known that Elite-level Gene Armaments were already extremely powerful and precious.

For example, the Beetle Claw Greatsword in Lu Yuan's hand was still very useful even though his current tempering level was more than 40%.

He had killed tens of thousands of ferocious beasts in the dungeon, but he had not obtained an Elite-level Gene Armament again.

It was conceivable how precious Elite-level armaments were.

Unexpectedly, he was now rewarded with a Boss-level Gene Armament?!

The surprise came too quickly, and he even wondered if he was dreaming.

The Elite Level 4 trial reward was so rich!

Lu Yuan quickly put the items into his hands.

The Origin Land transmitted the information of the Moon Stone into Lu Yuan's mind.

Moon Stone: This is a Rune-type Gene Armament, which only needs to be placed in the gene chain and does not need to be materialized to exert its effect.

The effect of this Moon Stone is to enhance the all-round strength of the physical body, and it also has a special Moonstone Guardian ability.

Moonstone Guardian is a guardian-type ability that can resist mental attacks and protect the master's spirit.

Being able to protect the spirit is a very powerful guardian-type ability.

After all, this is a special ability of a boss-level Gene Armament.

Unfortunately, Lu Yuan feels that he may not be able to use it.

Where would an Apprentice-level Gene Warrior encounter spiritual attacks?

That's too outrageous.

In comparison, the all-round improvement in physical strength made Lu Yuan feel extremely pleasantly surprised.

With a thought, he wanted to absorb the Moon Stone into his body.

However, as soon as he started absorbing, Lu Yuan's body felt a slight stinging pain, and he quickly stopped.

"Is this the boss-level armament? It actually has such high requirements for the physical body. Even if my current tempering degree is almost 50%, I still can't equip it."

He breathed out: "I have to continue cultivating. Fortunately, there are still 100 drops of Moonstone Essence."

Lu Yuan looked at the 100 drops of silver liquid in the air, a smile on his face.

"Let's absorb it now."

Lu Yuan began to absorb the Moonstone Essence.

1 drop, 10 drops, 20 drops...

The spiritual power contained in the Moonstone Essence is a hundred times that of the Moonstone Spirit Dew. As Lu Yuan absorbed it, the rich and vast spiritual power quickly tempered Lu Yuan's gene chains.

In the white mist within his body, the gene chains became brighter.

50%, 55%, 60%...

When Lu Yuan absorbed 71 drops of Moonstone Essence, his body felt a slight fullness and stinging sensation, and his body could no longer absorb spiritual power.

Even the extremely gentle spiritual power of the Moonstone Essence cannot be absorbed infinitely.

71 drops of Moonstone Essence is equivalent to 7,100 drops of Moonstone Spirit Dew, which is also equivalent to the spiritual power contained in almost 7,000 Spirit Crystals!

If he were to absorb Spirit Crystals, Lu Yuan would need about ten days to finish absorbing them!

But now, it only took a few minutes!

With such vast spiritual power, even if Lu Yuan engraved an Elite-level Extraordinary Gene, and the spiritual power needed to temper the gene chains was several times more than that of ordinary genes, he still raised the tempering degree to 74%!

With the improvement of the tempering degree, Lu Yuan's physical body became much stronger than before, and vast power surged out from Lu Yuan's body.

Far more powerful than before!
