A Speedrun! The Whole Crowd Was Stunned!

Twenty seconds passed in the blink of an eye.

Lin Zichen passed the Exotic Plant level unscathed and arrived at the second level, the Exotic Beast level.

On the other side.

Special Training Building.

On the rooftop.

When Qin Chuan and the other leaders in City No. 1 saw that Lin Zichen had cleared the Exotic Plant level without taking any damage in just over a minute, they were all extremely shocked and their faces were full of disbelief.

"What's going on? Why aren't those Exotic Plant in the forest attacking him? They're even uprooting themselves to make way for him?"

"Could it be... that he, like those Heretic Cult of the Divine Plant Cult, has fused with the genes of the Wood Spirit?"

"No, he followed the Pure-Blood Human Path who tempered his physical body, without fusing with the genes of Exotic Beast. It's impossible for him to possess the abilities of Wood Spirit."

So what exactly happened?

"..."

Just when everyone was completely baffled...

Qin Chuan, the City Lord, frowned slightly as he offered his opinion:

"It's Mental Power."

"That little guy named Lin Zichen has extremely strong Mental Power."

"He must have just used his Mental Power to suppress the Exotic Plant around him, and then used his Mental Power to move the Exotic Plant blocking his way from a distance, thus creating the incredible scene of the Exotic Plant moving aside on their own."

"..."

Everyone else was immediately shocked upon hearing this.

If what Qin Chuan said is true, then how strong must Lin Zichen's mental fortitude be?

Advanced High-level?

Approaching the level of rare?

But how could that be!

Many psychic Gene Fusionist, even when their Biological Rank is still at Advanced stage, cannot possess such strong Mental Power.

Lin Zichen is just a Pure-Blood Human follows the path of body tempering. No matter how strong his Mental Power is, it is theoretically impossible for him to surpass Gene Fusionist with a mental system.

"Could it be that he possesses some kind of special physical constitution?"

Shangguan Yuehua, one of the Deputy City Lord, murmured after thinking for a moment.

After hearing this, the surrounding leaders also felt that Lin Zichen's physical condition must be special, which was why his Mental Power was so ridiculously strong.

Otherwise, there's no way to explain what's happening right now.

In the forest.

Lin Zichen, who had already entered the Exotic Beast- themed level, was unaware that the leaders on the rooftop were mistaking his [Lord of the Forest] effect for simply having Mental Power.

He didn't care at all how the leaders analyzed him.

Now, all he wants to do is demonstrate his strength in order to gain access to a large amount of evolutionary resources.

Therefore, this applies to both an exceptional physical body and the ability to devour Exotic Beast and acquire Biological Attribute.

He stopped hiding anything.

They chose to show everything without reservation.

As for the possibility of being attacked by Human Traitor for performing too outrageously, that was no longer within his consideration.

Because he has already been targeted by Human Traitor.

No matter how low you try to keep a low profile, you'll still get attacked if you're meant to be.

Since that's the case, I might as well go all out to show off, at least that way I can earn more evolutionary resources.

"Crystal Demon Bear, Advanced Tier 5"

"Steel Flying Eagle, Advanced Tier 4"

"An unfamiliar Exotic Beast, Advanced Tier 3."

"An unfamiliar Exotic Beast, Advanced Tier 2."

"Death Silk Exotic Spider, Advanced Tier 1..."

Lin Zichen released his Mental Power, carefully sensing the Exotic Beast in the second level and observing their Biological Rank.

A very large number were discovered.

Moreover, they are all Advanced Being.

Their overall strength is very high.

If the first level is 3 stars in difficulty, then the second level is 4 stars in difficulty.

The difficulty level has increased by a whole level.

"If we devoured all these Advanced Exotic Beast, who knows how many Exotic Beast Atlas we could unlock, and how many precious Beast Core we could obtain..."

Just thinking about it made Lin Zichen feel excited.

He then took a step forward and rushed towards the Exotic Beast within his attack range at top speed.

No matter what kind of Exotic Beast it was, he would unleash a powerful punch, instantly blasting it into a cloud of blood mist.

Then, with a swift, air-to-air suction, he drew the sprawling Beast Core into his hand and stored it in the Storage Space within his Consciousness Sea.

At the same time, a single thought could devour its Life Origin.

[You have devoured a large amount of the Life Origin of the "Death Silk Exotic Spider"]

[You have successfully unlocked the Death Silk Exotic Spider Atlas and gained the Biological Attribute - Death Entanglement]

[Death Entanglement: Your mouth can fire ultra-high-strength fiber threads to entangle your prey]

[You have devoured a large amount of the Life Origin of the "Black Poison Trick Bee"]

[You have successfully unlocked the Black Poison Trick Bee Atlas and obtained the Biological Attribute - Lethal Venom]

[Lethal Venom: Hard objects on your body, such as hair, nails, teeth, etc., can release large amounts of deadly venom.]

[You have devoured a large amount of the Life Origin of the "Crystal Demon Bear"]

[You have successfully unlocked the Crystal Demon Bear Atlas and gained the Biological Attribute - Extreme Hardening]

[Extreme Hardening: Your body can enter a state of extremely high hardness]

"A state of extremely high hardness?"

"These Biological Attribute are interesting; they'll be perfect for dealing with that Little Dirty Girl."

Lin Zichen smiled and then continued to kill the other Exotic Beast.

In this second level, the Exotic Beast level.

Instead of focusing on speed, he charged towards the places with the most Exotic Beast, taking them down with a single Exotic Beast, frantically collecting their Beast Core and devouring Exotic Beast genes.

In just a few short minutes.

The second level, which was originally teeming with beasts, was rendered deathly silent by his slaughter, with almost no roars of beasts audible.

Special Training Building.

On the rooftop.

Seeing Lin Zichen wreak havoc in the second level, with all the Exotic Beast being utterly helpless against him, the leaders were completely dumbfounded.

They never expected that Lin Zichen's physical body could be this powerful.

No matter what kind of Exotic Beast it was, he blasted it to pieces with a single punch.

The leader surnamed Qian looked incredulous. "He could even blast an Advanced Tier 4 Exotic Beast to pieces with a single punch. Is this Pure-Blood Human Path really that powerful?"

The Deputy City Lord Bai gasped, "Judging from his performance right now, if he were to go all out, he would be at least at the Advanced Tier 5, or even close to the Advanced Tier 6."

Shangguan Yuehua asked in confusion, "From what I understand, this kid is only 19 years old. To have strength close to the Advanced Tier 6 at 19 is quite an exaggerated existence even among the ranks of geniuses of the Exotic Human Tier. I can't quite understand how Earth, with its scarce evolutionary resources, could produce such a heaven-defying genius?"

A female leader next door chuckled and said, "Old Qian, Old Bai, City Lord Shangguan, you were just betting on who would win, but judging from the current trend, that little guy named Lin Zichen is destined to be number one. Your grandsons and granddaughters have all lost."

Qin Chuan, the City Lord, remained silent.

At this moment, his eyes were fixed on Lin Zichen in the picture, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly involuntarily.

He had anticipated that Lin Zichen would be very strong, and might be the strongest among the nine people participating in the test.

But he never expected that Lin Zichen would be so greedy.

In order to collect Beast Core, he stopped even trying to pass through the levels and just focused on killing Exotic Beast everywhere.

What kind of talk is that?

A genius of Exotic Human Tier talent, how could he be so short-sighted?

Alas, it seems that Earth's resources are still too scarce.

This little guy probably hasn't seen such abundant evolutionary resources before, so it's normal that he couldn't resist for a moment.

I understand...

Thinking it over, Qin Chuan took out a conch shell covered with mysterious runes and held it in his hand. With a thought, he injected a wisp of Mental Power into the conch shell.

After the runes on the conch shell started to glow.

Qin Chuan said calmly, "Alright, that's enough. Stop focusing on killing the Exotic Beast. If you have the strength, speedrun it and quickly move on to the third level."

He was sending a telepathic message to Lin Zichen.

Thanks to the conch shell, he could accurately transmit his voice into Lin Zichen's brain.

In the forest.

Lin Zichen had just finished consuming a cloud of Exotic Beast blood mist when Qin Chuan's voice echoed deep within his mind.

He found this very amazing.

How did that sound get into my head?

What kind of divine power is this?

The Mythical story of a voice traveling a thousand miles?

Just as he was thinking about these things, Qin Chuan's voice echoed again from the depths of his mind:

"Stop standing there! I am Qin Chuan, the City Lord of City No. 1. I now order you to immediately enter the final level and clear it quickly. You are not allowed to stay in the second level to kill Exotic Beast and collect Beast Core!"

This time, the telepathic message was no longer a suggestion, but an order.

Upon hearing that the other party claimed to be the City Lord, Lin Zichen had no choice but to obey. He stopped staying in the Exotic Beast- destroying dungeon to devour Life Origin and collect Beast Core, and quickly set off to enter the mysterious final dungeon.

In less than half a minute.

Lin Zichen successfully entered the third level and arrived at the very center of the forest.

It was very quiet here; there were no sounds of Exotic Plant rubbing against each other, nor the violent roars of Exotic Beast.

Yes, it was a huge wooden cage, with each pillar covered in mysterious runes.

Inside the cage, there was a terrifying Hell Demon Ape imprisoned.

Its enormous size is estimated to be seven meters tall and three meters wide.

At first glance, it stands like a small mountain inside the cage, radiating a terrifying pressure that is extremely oppressive.

Lin Zichen turned his gaze away from the Hell Demon Ape in the cage and instead focused on a notice board in front of the cage.

There was some text written on the sign.

Press the button in the center of the cage to release the Hell Demon Ape imprisoned inside.

[This Hell Demon Ape is extremely violent, with Biological Rank of Advanced Tier 6 Great Perfection. Biological Attribute high attack, high defense, and high speed, so teamwork is recommended to defeat it.]

"Advanced Tier 6 Great Perfection... So, this Hell Demon Ape is the final boss of this test?"

Lin Zichen looked at the Hell Demon Ape in the cage with a calm and serene expression.

Advanced Tier 6 Great Perfection is very strong.

Its Biological Rank is slightly higher than his.

However, he is nothing to fear.

The Hell Demon Ape imprisoned in the cage will be considered a success if it can withstand one of its punches.

"Let's speedrun it then."

Lin Zichen murmured softly.

He then raised his hand and flicked his finger, accurately hitting the button in the middle of the cage.

Then, with a few clicks, the cage door opened, and the sleeping Hell Demon Ape slowly opened its eyes, revealing a ferocious crimson gaze.

Special Training Building.

On the rooftop.

When the leaders saw that Lin Zichen dared to fight the Hell Demon Ape in the cage alone, their eyes widened in surprise.

"That Hell Demon Ape Biological Rank at the advanced Advanced Tier 6 Great Perfection. This little guy actually dares to challenge it all by himself. Is he that confident?"

"That's truly commendable courage."

"I wonder if he can succeed in the challenge."

At this moment, all the leaders were staring intently at Lin Zichen on the screen, curious about whether he could defeat the Hell Demon Ape.

Most people thought he couldn't do it.

After all, that Hell Demon Ape was an extremely high- Biological Rank, with high attack, high defense, and high speed. Without an Advanced Tier 7 rank, one couldn't possibly fight it.

The leaders did not believe that Lin Zichen, who was only 19 years old and had grown up on Earth, could possess the strength of Advanced Tier 7.

After all, Luo Qianxue, whose evolutionary talent surpasses the entire team of geniuses of the Exotic Human Tier, has only evolved to the Advanced Tier 7 level after so many years of training in the Origin Land.

In the heart of the forest.

The cage opened, Hell Demon Ape awoke.

The moment it woke up, it noticed Lin Zichen outside the cage.

When he saw an Earthling appear in front of him.

In an instant, all the weariness on its face vanished, replaced by endless anger and hatred.

Having been imprisoned in the city for decades, it harbors a deep hatred for Earthling, wishing it could tear every single one of Earthling to pieces.

"Roar--!"

The Hell Demon Ape let out a deafening roar.

The next second, it charged at Lin Zichen outside the cell like a bull seeing a red cloth.

With each step, a deafening thud resounded, shaking the earth.

Facing the oncoming behemoth.

Lin Zichen didn't move an inch, his heart completely unmoved.

When the enraged Hell Demon Ape charged forward and swung its massive, meteor-like fist at him, he finally raised his own fist, watching the feeble punch as it met the attack head-on.

Then, there was a loud "bang"!

The Hell Demon Ape, a Biological Rank Advanced Tier 6 Great Perfection Biological Attribute high attack, high defense, and high speed, suddenly had its fist explode like a bursting watermelon, splattering large amounts of bloody juice.

Then, the arms, shoulders, head... until the entire body exploded, turning into a shower of blood that splattered all over the ground.

After instantly killing the Hell Demon Ape with a single punch.

Lin Zichen immediately used a telekinetic suction to draw the Hell Demon Ape's Beast Core into his hand and stored it in his Storage Space.

Immediately, with a thought, he devoured the Life Origin contained within the surrounding blood rain.

[You have devoured a large amount of the Life Origin of the "Hell Demon Ape"]

[You have successfully unlocked the Hell Demon Ape Atlas and gained the Biological Attribute - Peak State]

[Peak State: Your attack, defense, and speed are greatly increased]

Lin Zichen glanced at the effect of this Biological Attribute, but remained unmoved.

There are so many Biological Attribute now that it's hard to feel excited about just acquiring a small Biological Attribute.

Everything was mostly calm, nothing out of the ordinary.

I only feel a slight ripple of emotion when I see something with very unusual Biological Attribute.

I wonder how the Little Dirty Girl is doing in clearing the game...

Thinking it over, Lin Zichen spread his Mental Power, trying to cover as much area as possible, to see if he could find Shen Qinghan's figure.

Special Training Building.

On the rooftop.

Having witnessed Lin Zichen blast the Hell Demon Ape to Origin Land with a single punch, the leaders were all stunned. For a moment, they thought they were hallucinating and couldn't believe it was real.

Hell Demon Ape at the Advanced Tier 6 Great Perfection was actually blasted apart by a single punch?

How is that possible?

This is outrageous!

Just what kind of monster is Lin Zichen?!

Among these stunned leaders, Qin Chuan, as the City Lord, quickly regained his senses and rapidly channeled his Mental Power into the conch shell in his hand.

Then, from a distance of more than ten miles, he spoke to Lin Zichen, who was far away in the heart of the forest:

"Little guy, smash the sign, then go into the cage and close the door. You'll be the final boss, waiting for others to team up and challenge you."
