Yang Xiao closed the door,
The safety issue was not a concern anymore, but since he got woken up in the middle of the night and couldn't fall back asleep, he simply decided to practice the Surging Waves Striking Shore Heart thod, the Bone Forging Technique, and the Yijin Scripture for Genetic Transformation in his room.
Having trained on the spaceship for a month, and then at the mining site for several days, the supply of Bone Forging Potion he brought with him had run out. It seed that he would have to ask Luo ng for so more Bone Forging Potion tomorrow.
On Earth, a small bottle of Bone Forging Potion cost ten thousand Crystal Coins. He wondered how much it would be here?
Although Yang Xiao carried a Black Crystal Card, he guessed it was probably useless here. It couldn't be possible that the Black Crystal Card could still be read over a distance of more than 80 light-years, could it?
Yang Xiao did not believe that the Yijin Scripture of Shaolin Temple he practiced was genuinely the ntal thod of the Yijin phase in the Genetic Transformation Technique. He just felt that after practicing, his veins and arteries were unblocked and the effect was good, so he kept at it.
Before dawn, Yang Xiao managed to catch another 2 hours of sleep.
When he woke up in the morning, a woman carrying a food box ca in, placed it on the table in the room, bowed slightly to Yang Xiao, and then turned and left.
This woman's appearance was quite different from the glamorous won that Yang Xiao had seen on Earth.
Suddenly, the number 25 popped into his mind.
"Jingjing, are you on this planet?"
Yang Xiao always cherished that enchanting night in his heart; the smile and expressions of number 25 left an indelible impression on him, as did her scent.
Even compared to the one night with Qin Yu, this mory seed more cherished.
While eating breakfast, Luo ng walked in.
"Master Yang, did you sleep well last night?"
"Ah, not bad. After all, I've gotten used to being disturbed by monsters at night back at the mining site."
"It's almost an everyday occurrence here."
"Aren't those monsters afraid of you? "
"Heh, why would they be? I'll tell you the truth, our surroundings are all endless wastelands, high mountains, jungles, and the monsters here are endless and high-level."
"Last night, there seed to be a two-headed giant crocodile attacking your base?"
"Yes, but we killed it. Things like that happen often. The two-headed giant crocodile is considered one of the most powerful monsters around these parts."
"Has their Genetic Evolution reached the Emperor Level?"
"Pretty much, around Emperor Level. Are you done eating? We are going to set out for the mining site soon."
Yang Xiao nodded,
"I'm almost done. Also, what about the corpse of that two-headed monster?"
"It was thrown outside the base. It was eaten by other monsters overnight."
Damn it!
Yang Xiao cursed inwardly, regretting the loss—there goes a Genetic Evolution point.
Luo ng seed to have guessed what Yang Xiao was thinking and laughed:
"Why, Master Yang, did you want the corpse of that monster?"
"Heh, it's like this—I'm currently at a low Evolution Level, so the flesh and blood of that two-headed monster could potentially help accumulate so Evolution Energy."
"Ah, you're right. I didn't think of it last night. Don't worry, if you need it, I'll save the corpses of any monsters we kill from now on."
"Don't you need it?"
"Us?"
Luo ng was startled, then burst into laughter:
"Now, we've all already evolved to Emperor Level. The corpse of such a monster is of no use to us,
And more importantly, we've all reached an Evolutionary bottleneck, where it's very hard to evolve no matter how much monster flesh and blood we consu, so everyone just can't be bothered with it anymore,
Besides, eating a little has no use—who could eat a whole monster in one day?"
Yang Xiao suddenly understood.
For Luo ng and the others, without the Black Bottle to refine the flesh and blood of the monsters, casually eating at clearly couldn't bring about the effects of Genetic Evolution, which is why they simply didn't bother eating it.
It seed that this Black Bottle, even on this planet, was a rare treasure. If he were to eat a whole monster every day, would Luo ng suspect anything?
That was indeed a problem!
Yang Xiao could only ask Luo ng for so Bone Forging Potion instead.
"Captain Luo, do you have any Bone Forging Potion here?"
"Yes, there's a Genetic Store at the base. Oh, have you ever practiced the Bone Forging Technique from Genetic Modification?"
"Ah, when I was on Earth, Long Yu did teach the Bone Forging Technique."
"Long Yu?"
Luo ng was startled and looked at Yang Xiao.
"How co, do you know Lord Long Yu?"
Luo ng glanced around and said in a low voice:
"Long Yu is one of the key lieutenants under the Fourth Prince, sowhat famous; many people know him,"
After pausing for a bit, he added:
"In the future, do not ntion Long Yu's na around here, this place is under the Eldest Prince's jurisdiction."
"Ah?"
Yang Xiao was stunned, not expecting to encounter the princely factional disputes even here.
He said imdiately:
"Thank you for the reminder, however, we were not familiar with Long Yu back on Earth, we've only had superficial contact."
"I know that the Eldest Prince and the Fourth Prince initiated a plan for a Super Gene Hunting Ground on Earth,"
As he said this, Luo ng suddenly realized he had said too much and quickly changed the subject:
"The ti is almost up, I'll go buy you so Bone Forging Potions; I'll start with thirty bottles for you, co find again when you've used them up,"
Luo ng realized that he could finally help Yang Xiao, or rather, he could grasp Yang Xiao's needs and so he wasn't worried about Yang Xiao not earnestly accompanying him in his chess gas.
Monts later, Luo ng returned and handed a large bottle of Bone Forging Potion to Yang Xiao.
"This is the amount for thirty doses."
"Thank you, Captain Luo. May I ask, how many Crystal Coins is this?"
"A single dose is priced at five thousand Crystal Coins; this bottle is one hundred fifty thousand Crystal Coins."
Yang Xiao was taken aback. It seed that the price in the Genetic Store on Earth was double the price here.
Yang Xiao also knew he had no inco for the ti being and didn't bother being courteous to Luo ng, especially since he still had to teach him Go; the other party was already at an advantage.
Yang Xiao followed Luo ng and the others aboard the Spaceship to the mine.
Gu Beifeng, Du Tianxing, and others were jogging and singing.
Seeing Luo ng and the others arrive, they proactively ran over to grab breakfast, which had beco a routine.
During the breakfast ti, Yang Xiao had a brief exchange with Zhao Benling, Du Tianxing, Gu Beifeng, Chi Lin, Old Nine, and the rest.
Seeing that Yang Xiao was all right, everyone felt at ease.
Next, everyone went mining, and Yang Xiao accompanied Luo ng and Yuri in their ga of Go.
Another month or so passed by this way, with Luo ng's chess skills significantly improving.
Yang Xiao's various cultivations also proceeded as usual.
Luo ng didn't let Yang Xiao die and soon gave him the corpse of a Two-headed Monster.
Yang Xiao dared not expose the secret of the Black Bottle, so he used the Space Ring to transport the monster's corpse to the mine, took it out, and shared it with everyone.
To Luo ng, it wasn't strange that Yang Xiao possessed a Space Ring; people of their status commonly had one as standard equipnt, with the only difference being the Level of the ring.
Higher-level rings could hold more than a hundred items, whereas Yang Xiao's Space Ring was of a lower Level and could only hold thirty items.
After Yang Xiao returned to the base, he gave the monster's corpse to Gu Beifeng and the others. For them, it was an excellent opportunity, and although it wouldn't increase their Evolution Energy by much, it was still better than nothing.
It was simple for fourteen people to share a monster; they even skipped lunch and dinner, focusing solely on consuming the monster's flesh and blood to enhance their Evolution Ability.
After that, Yang Xiao was able to bring one or two monster corpses each day for everyone; he would only occasionally take the opportunity to keep one for himself, put it into the Black Bottle for refinent, and then quietly drink it at night while sleeping.
Seeing so many Evolution resources slip through his fingers, Yang Xiao couldn't help but feel pained.
Thanks to Yang Xiao, a little over a month later, Du Tianxing and the others miraculously improved their Genetic Attribute by 1 point, which made everyone very happy.
...
One night, Yang Xiao was resting in his room at the base as usual, cultivating the Genetic Transformation Technique.
Luo ng and others were in the base's entertainnt hall, watching a Go match.
To improve spiritual power, people at the base would find soone to play chess with almost every day, with many treating the chess gas as gambling matches, similar to how Earth people played Mahjong, and bystanders could place bets.
The players in the ongoing match were two captains with the sa status as Luo ng.
The chess ga reached a critical point in the middle ga when Luo ng, unable to contain his impatience, stood up and pointed out a move on the board.
Then the problem arose!
