I Can Infinitely Synthesize Transcendent Genes

The burly man, with his short braids and a toothy smile, somehow looked rather sinister.

Pei Jinye glanced at him unhurriedly, “Is there something you need?”

“Someone asked me to speak to you. If you don’t mind, let’s leave this place and go outside. There’s something that needs your attention,” the burly man suggested.

“Not interested,” Pei Jinye said, proceeding to walk away.

However, the burly man suddenly whispered a name.

Pei Jinye looked up.

Speaking softly, the man said, “This comes directly from Captain Wei’s recommendation. You may give him a call first.”

Seeing this, Pei Jinye didn’t hesitate. As he walked out of the library, he took out his phone and dialed Wei Shurao’s number.

“Captain, it’s me.”

Wei Shurao’s voice always inspired trust, perpetually unhurried and genteelly amiable, “Zang Zhong came looking for you, right? The fellow who looks like a small hill.”

“Yes… I don’t know what’s going on. The other party claims this is your doing,” Pei Jinye spoke.

“That’s correct,” Wei Shurao spoke in a low voice, “The person behind him is quite influential; this is an opportunity for you. Since you have visited the Elemental Association, you must have felt the atmosphere there. Gaining the goodwill of a Superior will smooth many things for you in the future.”

“But what can I do?” asked Pei Jinye, maintaining his composure.

“Karmic Fire,” Wei Shurao said softly.

Pei Jinye paused.

Lowering his voice, Wei Shurao continued, “You might not be aware, but the fire attribute you awakened is actually Karmic Fire, rumored to be able to obliterate all malignant qi… I only got confirmation last night, and I apologize for not updating your file in time. I’ll arrange for it to be done, to promptly report your special ability feature, which will make the Elemental Association value you more.”

“Karmic Fire…” Pei Jinye thought of the Earth’s Heart Fire Lotus.

If he hadn’t consumed that Earth’s Heart Fire Lotus, he probably wouldn’t be able to keep up the pretense.

“That person of high rank may have been afflicted with some misfortune. When you meet him, try not to look too surprised, be mindful of etiquette, and for the rest, just do your best,” advised Wei Shurao.

Having understood the cause and effect, Pei Jinye also had a strategy in his heart.

He returned to the burly man’s side.

The burly man, known as Zang Zhong, was already standing by the door, gesturing with his hand.

A black luxury car was waiting at the entrance of the Elemental Association.

“This must be expensive…”

Pei Jinye thought quietly to himself.

Although he couldn’t be sure about the person behind the other party, since Wei Shurao had personally vouched for this, if something really did go wrong, the worst-case scenario would be to fight his way out and flee.

Pei Jinye was escorted to a health clinic in the city center.

The entire floor had been reserved, and it was filled with black-suited bodyguards wearing sunglasses and earpieces.

When Zang Zhong escorted Pei Jinye, both were subjected to a body search.

Zang Zhong handed over two Butterfly Knives.

But it’s Pei Jinye… a dozen iron needles intended for use as Hidden Weapons were found on him.

Zang Zhong looked puzzled, “You know acupuncture too?”

“Uh-huh,” said Pei Jinye, without a hint of embarrassment.

“How about we still confiscate these for the time being, and you can come get them when needed?” Zang Zhong suggested.

Pei Jinye nodded in agreement.

A nearby bodyguard collected the needles into a separate storage box.

“Don’t worry, they won’t get lost. If they do, the old master will personally compensate you with the best set of acupuncture tools,” Zang Zhong said with a light laugh, then led the way.

Pei Jinye withdrew his gaze and followed discreetly.

“Knock, knock, knock.”

Zang Zhong knocked lightly on the door.

Then, the sound of high heels came from inside the room. With every step that seemed to firmly press upon the heart.

Instinctively, Pei Jinye tensed up.

The visitor was very strong!

The door opened.

Pei Jinye’s gaze involuntarily lingered.

With snow-white skin and black hair, with delicate eyes and peachy cheeks, she was like a cloud emerging from a mountain pass.

“You’re here.”

A gentle yet compelling voice arose.

“Madam,” Zang Zhong bowed his head respectfully.

“You must be Mister Pei, I’ve heard about you from Wei Shurao. You are very impressive and remarkable,” she said.

“Madam is too kind,” Pei Jinye averted his gaze.

He was not a man to be swayed by beauty.

However, the madam’s appearance certainly could win one over at first sight.

But Pei Jinye grew more vigilant.

He never trusted unexplained emotions.

Therefore, he did not rule out the possibility that this woman’s Transcendent ability could make people feel close to her.

“Please,” she said.

In the moment the three of them moved, Zang Zhong cast a reassuring look towards the madam, signaling that Pei Jinye was safe. He didn’t enter the room but stood guard outside the door.

Once the door closed,

Pei Jinye took a deep breath in secret.

Facing a strong character alone certainly exerted no small amount of pressure.

Moreover…

The room contained more than just the madam.

On the sickbed, an elderly man with drooping eyelids and gray brows exuded an aura of chilliness, so much so that Pei Jinye, who was five meters away, could already sense it.

“Sorry, the elderly gentleman is not in a good condition right now,” the lady apologized.

Pei Jinye stepped forward, extended his hand, and said, “Sorry, I may need to feel for myself, excuse my offense.”

The lady nodded and moved aside slightly.

Pei Jinye noticed the distance… It was clear that if he made the slightest unusual move, intending harm, there was at least a ninety percent chance he would be killed with a single blow.

Moreover, from the brief glimpse earlier, he had already noticed the necklace the lady wore around her neck, including the ring on her finger, the earrings, and even the decorative items on her clothes, all contained Transcendent power.

It turned out the lady was a cautious person too.

How fitting, a fellow traveler.

Pei Jinye actually did not understand traditional Chinese medicine, but he had watched enough medical TV dramas in his past life to mimic the motions convincingly.

He sighed softly.

The lady quickly asked, “What’s your assessment?”

Pei Jinye shook his head without speaking, and the lady immediately shut her mouth.

Then she gasped in surprise again.

The lady couldn’t help but look over once more.

But it was the old master who slowly opened his eyes, glancing at Pei Jinye.

He didn’t feel that the young man had done anything to him, but noticing that he had become much more eloquent, he wondered if it was all bluster and asked in a deep voice, “What did you find?”

Pei Jinye replied calmly with a smile, “The old master still speaks with quite a strong voice.”

The old man looked back with an ambiguous smile, saying nothing.

But as Pei Jinye raised his hand.

At the moment when the light of the flickering flame appeared, the old man’s expression finally turned serious, and he said word by word, “Karmic Fire?”

“The old master has good eyesight,” Pei Jinye said with a smile.

The old man’s eyebrows twitched slightly.

It was unclear whether it was due to the appearance of Karmic Fire or Pei Jinye’s bantering tone.

In a strict sense, who had dared to tease him, Ouyang Wuji, after so many years?

“Don’t worry, old master, I will control the Karmic Fire to do some purging; it won’t harm you,” Pei Jinye’s voice came through.

The lady looked at the old master as well.

The old master nodded slightly; the ring imbued with Transcendent power was removed.

He closed his eyes again, allowing himself to relax.

Pei Jinye’s index finger touched the old master’s forehead.

Just as he was about to open his eyes, he heard Pei Jinye’s voice softly begin.

“I’ll do my best.”

As he said these words, the old master’s attempt to open his eyes stopped, and his expression gradually softened.

Pei Jinye wielded Karmic Fire like threads of spirit to touch the old master, and before getting close to his Spiritual World, the surrounding deep darkness clashed and let out continuous frying noises.

The old master groaned and furrowed his brows tightly.

“Go.”

With a low call from Pei Jinye.

The Karmic Fire threads, as if commanded, suddenly surged in vitality, sweeping across the air in sparks, going from weakening to a roaring and magnificent force in an instant.

The endless darkness was suddenly illuminated by the bright firelight.

Aglow with crimson.

Becoming a vast sea of fire.

“It is an omen…”

Pei Jinye had before hypnotized Tang Huoyang’s third uncle for treatment, but the latter’s condition was self-afflicting. The present old master’s condition, on the contrary, seemed as though he had been maliciously cursed.

In the ghostly light, Pei Jinye precisely captured a pitch-black thread.

“It’s trying to escape…”

The sea of fire boiled.

Within the red luminescence, Pei Jinye silently watched over all the traces in the battlefield of the mind.

With a thought’s pull.

Countless flames surged out, forming a sky-covering array, with the force of crushing decay and pulling out dead wood, shattering all the ominous presences in this world at the moment.

The instigator, that single black thread of air, desperately tried to escape, but it couldn’t outpace the speed at which Karmic Fire burned.

“You can’t escape,”

Pei Jinye gathered the sea of fire; the black thread hysterically expanded into a Black Drake.

But in an instant.

The sea of fire churned.

Thousands of Fire Dragons emerged, all looking down at the Black Drake attempting a desperate counterattack in its dire situation.

“Zap!”

The Black Drake’s body was broken in half; the dark, ominous air that it dissipated was immediately incinerated by Karmic Fire.

However, Pei Jinye was surprised that this half-remaining Black Drake had such resilient life force that it would resort to desperate measures like severing its tail to survive.

“Even so, what can you change?”

Pei Jinye raised his hand, gathering the sea of fire, crashing down with an unstoppable momentum.

In the meantime.

The twilight-aged old man had already fallen into a deep slumber, completely unaware of the thrilling events unfolding in his Spiritual World.

Had he known, he surely would have sat up in shock despite being at death’s door.

After all, the battlefield was his Spiritual World; any harm would injure only him.

…

“Are these… the old master’s memories?”

In the midst, someone gasped in astonishment.
