Chapter 101: Chapter 1: Choosing Rewards, Different Species (Please Subscribe)_2
“You have the qualifications to cultivate the ‘Ancient God’ Evolution Path, and with my guidance, there’s a great hope you can step into the Sixth Rank,”
“What about Lin Yuan? He’s likely to be stuck at the Sixth Rank bottleneck forever. At that point, you can beat him up again to vent your anger,”
the bearded old man consoled.
In fact, if he had a choice, he really wished he could switch his heir; Lin Yuan wasn’t bad at all.
But once an heir for the ‘Ancient God’ Evolution Path was determined, it couldn’t be changed. This meant that the bearded old man could only stick to this path until the end.
Thus, he could only comfort Fang Qing, this inadequate successor.
“Right,”
“What’s it matter if you’re stronger than me now?”
“What I want is the future, what I want is later on,”
“Being able to step into the Sixth Rank, travel the Starry Sea, and strike down a Fallen Star—wouldn’t that be far more exhilarating than now?”
Fang Qing took a deep breath and suddenly felt that his future was bright.
…
Time passed.
The process of the Canglan Star tournament was quickly spreading to the surrounding life planets.
This time, Canglan Star had produced a Fourth Rank Evolver—a phenomenon not seen in hundreds of thousands of years.
For a Middle-grade Life Planet like Canglan Star, the probability of a Fourth Rank Evolver emerging before the age of 100 was almost zero.
Only those higher-grade life planets, even Star Domain’s main planets, had a higher chance of producing a Fourth Rank under 100 years old.

A beautiful woman stepped out. freewebnoveℓ.com
In the interstellar era, regardless of gender, appearances were never bad. Not to mention genetic correction, even the cosmetic medical treatments available could easily and safely alter appearances.
However, this beautiful woman was not only stunningly beautiful but also possessed a unique charisma that made men uncontrollably wish to conquer her.
“Who would have thought that such a remote planet could also produce a Fourth Rank under a hundred years old?”
As soon as the beautiful woman stepped off the ship, a special hovercar came to pick her up.
“The task for this trip is to seduce this Fourth Rank genius, get him to join our race, and influence him as much as possible…”
The beautiful woman thought quickly.
A direct assassination would be too costly.
After all, to assassinate a Fourth Rank, you’d need at least the ability of a Fifth Rank.
If it were another Fourth Rank, and they couldn’t kill instantly, allowing the target just a second or two to fight back, the Planetary Defense System’s energy cannon would arrive.
Only a Fifth Rank was reliable.
And after assassinating a target, a Fifth Rank would certainly be shredded by the subsequent Planetary Defense Systems, as well as the arriving Human Race’s powerful warriors.
That is, wanting to assassinate a Fourth Rank human genius required the sacrifice of a Fifth Rank warrior.
And this Fifth Rank warrior also had to infiltrate the Human Race internally, possessing a complete and legal identity.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to enter Canglan Star or get close to the target.
Achieving this would probably be a hundred or a thousand times more difficult than cultivating a Fifth Rank strong warrior.
The Human Race’s three Goddesses were not to be trifled with. To escape their information blockade, no matter which Different Species, would require a great sacrifice.
Therefore, unless it’s those founders of high-grade Evolutionary Paths, Different Species would not easily attempt assassination.
Assassination is a desperate choice.
Besides assassination, there are myriad other methods available.
…
Shuiyue Residential Complex.
House number thirty-two.
Lin Yuan sat cross-legged, the content of the ‘Pagoda’ Evolution Path continually surfacing in his mind.
The Pagoda Evolution Path, a Sixth Rank Evolution Path, originated from a high-grade life planet called Pagoda Star.
This Evolution Path, precisely the one Lin Yuan chose for the tournament.
“Truly profound…”
Lin Yuan comprehended the Evolution Path.
[Your Against-Heaven’s Understanding is refining the understanding of the Pagoda Evolution Path, continuously perfecting the Martial Path Evolutionary Path…]

…
With his Against-Heaven’s Understanding, Lin Yuan was progressing every moment, exploring other advanced Evolution Paths, significantly speeding up the process.
“What a pity, even with such a splendid Evolution Path, there’s still no surpassing the Sixth Rank limit…”
Lin Yuan sighed.
From Sixth Rank to Seventh Rank is a huge bottleneck, a huge shackling.
The same goes for Evolvers and Evolution Paths.
“Forget it.”
“Let’s go outside, take a walk, and clear my mind.”
Lin Yuan stood up and left the underground training ground, planning to stroll through the garden at Shuiyue Residential Complex.
As a high-end luxury residential area, the garden at Shuiyue Residential Complex was planted with seasonal flowers year-round, delighting the eyes of those who walked through it.
Since it was early morning, the garden was relatively empty, which made it feel more intimate.
Suddenly.
A beautiful woman approached from the opposite direction.
She seemed to be a resident of Shuiyue Residential Complex too.
“Hmm?”
Lin Yuan felt as if he was being watched, so he couldn’t help but take several more looks at the beautiful woman.
One look.
Another look.
Yet another look.
Lin Yuan even stopped walking and stared at the beautiful woman’s retreating figure.
“Typical of men…”
Although the beautiful woman didn’t look back, she felt Lin Yuan’s gaze on her.
She had deliberately encountered him during this time to make a few appearances in front of Lin Yuan.
Her race practiced a special charm technique that could naturally evoke a favorable impression from the opposite sex.
Just now, as she walked by, she had subconsciously deployed this charm technique, and that fourth-rank genius was so bewitched that he stopped in his tracks.
This gave the beautiful woman even more confidence in her next actions.
Wearing down the fighting spirit of these young human geniuses was the best way to defeat them.
It was much easier than directly assassinating them and also gave her a greater sense of achievement.
…
[Your understanding is against heaven. You have observed an unknown life form and comprehended an Unknown ‘Charm Technique’…]
“Unknown ‘Charm Technique’?”
Lin Yuan thought for a while and immediately realized that this ‘Charm Technique’ was not something the Human Race could perform.
“If it’s not a ‘Charm Technique’ that the Human Race can perform, how did that woman use it?”
Lin Yuan was puzzled.
He could affirm that the beautiful woman had used this unknown ‘Charm Technique’ when she passed him by; otherwise, his against-heaven’s understanding wouldn’t have perceived and completely understood it.
“When in doubt, consult the Goddess.”
Lin Yuan didn’t bother to think further and, once he returned to his residence, directly connected with the Goddess of Wisdom.
He uploaded this unknown ‘Charm Technique’ there.
In no time.
He received a reply from the Goddess of Wisdom.
“Respected citizen Lin Yuan, this ‘Charm Technique’ comes from the Floral Deity Race, a high-level ‘Charm Technique’ formed by leveraging the race’s special talents inherent in their bloodlines, combined with secret techniques, capable of beguiling the mind…”
The Goddess of Wisdom explained clearly.
“Floral Deity Race?”
Lin Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly.
This species, a plant-based life form, was one of the enemies of the Human Races.
Because they were adept at camouflage and familiar with bewitching minds, they often infiltrated Human Civilization, acting as covert spies.
“That woman must be from a Different Species, the Floral Deity Race.”
Lin Yuan thought of the beautiful woman he had just encountered in the garden.
With so many life planets in the Cosmic Human Alliance and many high-end residential areas, this Different Species appearing near Lin Yuan was likely targeting him.
“Is it because of the exposure from the arena match?”
Lin Yuan silently pondered.
In the arena match, displaying fourth-rank combat power was a decision Lin Yuan had made after consulting the Goddess of Wisdom.
The explanation from the Goddess of Wisdom was that while a fourth-rank human genius under a hundred years old would attract the attention of Different Species, it was only attention and would not lead to assassination list.
At most, he would face attempts to corrupt or sway him, but as long as Lin Yuan was prepared, nothing would happen.
And displaying fourth-rank combat power could possibly catch the Chikun Star Lord’s attention, potentially bringing great opportunities and benefits.
The risk was small.
The opportunity was great.
Taking everything into consideration, Lin Yuan had chosen to reveal his strength and overwhelmingly dominate the past.
“I’ve actually discovered a Different Species…”
Lin Yuan’s thoughts churned.
Well utilized, this Different Species could bring many benefits to Lin Yuan.
For instance, by following the traces of this Different Species, more of them might be revealed.
And since Different Species infiltrating Human Civilization would certainly carry many treasures, Lin Yuan fishing in troubled waters would certainly yield some results.
“Forget it.”
“No need to mix up with these rats from the gutter.”
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment and directly connected with the Goddess of Wisdom.
“Goddess of Wisdom, I have something to report.”
