Chapter 96 - 96 Rejection, "When I Make a Decision, I Won't Regret It"
96 Rejection, “When I Make a Decision, I Won’t Regret It”
Two Dimensional Doors were very rare.
Two Dimensional Doors rich in special minerals with a large number of high-level mutated beasts were even rarer.
Along the way, after Senior Sister Qingya’s “tuition”, Lin Sen also learned some extraordinary knowledge that ordinary people could not come into contact with.
It was not as easy for the other combat professionals in this world to increase their strength as it was for Lin Sen.
Either persevere and risk their lives to cultivate, squeezing out the potential of their bodies or consume the flesh and blood of mutated beasts rich in psionic energy and use the special “digestion function” obtained through training to absorb the psionic energy inside to refine and temper their physique and spirit to increase his level.
Some of them were special. Once they arrived, they would undergo a qualitative change. It was impossible for humans to easily overcome them with just a few years or decades of accumulation.
From this, when the predecessors ate the flesh and blood of mutated beasts with high psionic energy content and “tasted a hundred herbs”, they came up with a summary of different types of professions. When facing bottlenecks, one could use the Barrier Breaking Pill or simply put, the formula for knockout drugs.
In this era, the way combat professionals ate the flesh of mutated beasts to increase their strength could be seen as the “super youthful version” of the skill Lin Sen’s Kabbalah Tree of Life which devoured psionic energy from corpses of mutated beasts without any losses.
This was also the reason why countless people in the Canaan Safe Zone went to the Hundred Thousand Mountains to hunt mutated beasts and obtain precious flesh and blood.
And also why there were only some low-level mutated beasts in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, with none higher than the Gold grade.
Because in the eyes of the combat professionals, mutated beasts were the disaster itself.
However, they were also the cornerstone of transcendence.
Therefore, even some geniuses could ignore objective rules and take a huge leap in rank like taking an elevator.
However, the backbone of this world’s resistance against mutated beasts still needed the flesh and blood of mutated beasts to increase the overall strength of human civilization.
Some super-large Two Dimensional Doors also had war zone troops stationed there. Without official permission to enter, one would be suspected of being spies or believers of heretic gods and punished as criminals against humanity.
Therefore, if Lin Sen wanted to obtain a large number of mutated beasts and did not plan to become enemies with the upper echelons of mankind, it would not be easy for him to continue accumulating strength in a low profile.
“Given the capabilities of the Tai Yi Academy, we can fight for more than five super-large Two Dimensional Doors for you. Each of them has at least ten Black-gold grade mutated beasts and one Legendary-grade mutated beast.”
Zhong Zhiren’s gaze was deep.
“But, I don’t think now is the time to give them to you.”
“Then when do you think is an appropriate timing?”
Lin Sen frowned. The opportunity to become stronger was right in front of him, but it had been forcefully cut off. He could not help but feel upset.
Especially after experiencing the disaster of the Canaan Safe Zone being almost completely wiped out, he found it even more difficult to calm down. His tone could not help but become a little anxious.
“The next time the gods descend into the world again, when humanity is in danger?”
“Haha.”
Lin Sen’s merciless disobedience did not anger Zhong Zhiren. Instead, he was in appreciation and admiration. Lin Sen’s determination for humanity made his tone even more benevolent.
“You’re too hasty. Too hasty.
“From a student to a professional whose strength is comparable to the Legendary X grade, it only took you such a short period of time. Most ordinary professionals are still scratching their heads and thinking about how to advance to Iron II. Now, you’re even thinking about how to expel the gods.
“You gained capabilities that don’t belong to your age, and you didn’t back down and took on the responsibilities that don’t belong to your age. But, you’re only 18 years old.”
“From human, to transcendence, to becoming a ruler of a civilization, a person’s psychological transformation requires a process.
“If you move too fast, you’ll go berserk and reach the other extreme. It’s not a good thing for you or humankind.”
“So.”
The person looked at Lin Sen sincerely, a hint of sincere pleading appearing in his voice.
“During the four years you’re in the academy, be a normal student. When you graduate and your mentality and resistance have been adjusted, I’ll pour all the resources of the entire Tai Yi Academy to nurture you.
“We humans have experienced countless storms. I’m very healthy. It’s not to the extent that I can’t even hold on for a few years and let a half-grown child like you go to the battlefield.”
The meaning behind Zhong Zhiren’s words touched Lin Sen.
This white-bearded old man, who looked like Santa Claus, was sincerely thinking for him.
He was afraid that he would accumulate too much pressure; afraid that he would go berserk after obtaining powerful strength; afraid that because he was young and inexperienced, he would easily walk to the extreme, so he limited him like this.
He wanted to give him four years of peace to regulate the problems that could easily arise in his mind.
However, understanding was one thing.
Lin Sen still wouldn’t do as the Zhong Zhiren wished.
He was not really an 18-year-old kid.
He had lived two lives and had lived 40 years in total. He had already established a complete outlook on life and values.
There were also people he wanted to protect. He had attachments and anchors in this world. He would not be bewitched by evil people and fall into the evil path, harming others and themselves.
Most importantly, humans might not be able to hold on for another four years…
The Kabbalah Tree of Life was exposed in front of the Beast God projection.
The Golden World Tree, a Supreme-level tool that could completely defeat gods, had also been discovered by the Blood God and was extremely important to it. Before leaving, He even claimed that He would invite other higher-level gods to descend to the human world and end it with a thunderous blow.
From what He said, the god civilization was probably constantly fighting countless dimensions.
The dimension where the Blue Planet was located might only be the tip of the iceberg. That was why Blood Gods and other high-level follower gods kept invading.
If other stronger gods really descended…
the insect-like human civilization would not even last half a second, let alone four years.
“Maybe I should trust you.”
After a long silence, Lin Sen thought for a moment and met Zhong Zhiren’s gaze. He said firmly,
“However, after experiencing the disaster of the Blood God’s descent, I now understand a principle. An existence like the gods who can look down on the river of time will definitely not let us do as we wish.
“Once I make a decision, I won’t regret it anymore—this is my life’s creed.
“I hope that on the day of the disaster, I will be strong enough to resist everything and not be surrounded by endless regrets.
“Therefore, I still hope that you can let me enter the dimensional world with mutated beasts in advance.
“…Sigh, if that’s what you think, I can’t continue to stop you,” Zhong Zhiren sighed.
“I reckon that if I continue to refuse, you’ll transfer to an academy or organization that’s willing to provide you with the dimensional world tomorrow.
“Alright, I agree to your request.”
“However, you have to complete one of my missions.”
“What mission?” Lin Sen asked.
“Defeat all the students in the fourth grade of Tai Yi Academy or make them willingly accept that they are inferior to you.”
