Above the heaving sea, Qin Cang stopped chasing.
"You got away this time."
Qin Cang snorted and put away the Blazing Flame Spear.
Ever since his battle with two marquises of the Mystic Iron Stone Spirit Clan, his genes had evolved, and his strength had surged once again.
Moreover, beyond the rise in his life level, Qin Cang felt that his evolution had also improved his comprehension, willpower, and many other aspects.
Thinking of Luo Feng's progress in the original story, Qin Cang had also formed a theory about the Yan God Clan's evolution. The Nine Calamities Manual made the body imitate an Inner Universe, using countless threads to perfectly combine the soul, Origin Force, and everything else. This created something akin to the operation of the laws of the universe, which in turn drove the evolution of the body's Gene Level.
When he underwent his third evolution, however, Qin Cang sensed that it had been driven by resonance with the universe. The resonance came and went in an instant, and the evolution itself had been far more violent. Its underlying principle seemed to share something with the Nine Calamities Manual, yet it was also different.
"If it had lasted longer, perhaps I could have learned more about the secrets buried deep in my bloodline. Too bad that feeling was gone in an instant."
Even now, Qin Cang still savored that moment. It had been truly wondrous.
"Never mind. If I can undergo a third evolution, then I can certainly undergo a fourth, or even a fifth or sixth. I just need to keep working at it."
For now, he put the matter of genetic evolution aside. Evolving again in the near future was clearly unrealistic, so he would focus on laws and secret techniques instead. Those were the fundamentals.
