Chapter 17 Abnormal Breeding, Greatly Increased Strength
"Huaiyan: If what I saw is true... I think I just saw that genius..."
Yun Li: Oh dear, Grandpa, you didn't see wrong! Hurry, we have to catch him! Let's go, buddy!
Huaiyan: Yunli, child, don't be impulsive...
Jiang Lin, sitting opposite him, couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth as he looked at the scene before him...
However, he had already begun to think about how to escape.
Even if he couldn't escape, he had already made preparations on Mount Luofu...
Moreover... his strength has been further enhanced...
If a messenger wants to leave, he can definitely do so!
Having estimated that he was far from Luofu, Jiang Lin found a nearby asteroid to rest and recuperate.
And they were planning their next move.
However, not long after, he saw a shooting star streak across the sky.
"That's... Huanlong?"
Jiang Lin was somewhat surprised. Was this an escape... or had he been knocked away?
But regardless of the reason, Huanlong's current state is definitely not good.
"Heh... What a rare opportunity..."
However, he calmed down, after all, he didn't know the extent of Huanlong's injuries.
Just to be on the safe side, he decided to first convert the spoils of this battle into his own fighting force.
Because the planet Jiang Lin previously lived on was not only harsh in environment, but also prone to disasters...
This fostered in him the good habit of immediately converting any resources he obtained into combat power.
Therefore, Jiang Lin is definitely the poorest of all the geniuses...
Because he didn't have any coins.
In terms of strength, he wouldn't dare claim to be the strongest among geniuses, after all, there are freaks like the Silent Lord and the Emperor above him.
But they are definitely among the strongest few.
Jiang Lin has a progeny that has been reproduced, and he is confident that he can master some of the reproductive capabilities.
Even if the power level doesn't reach the Star God level...
Whatever comes to mind, do it.
And so, just two and a half days later...
He felt the extra power within his body.
The experiment was a success, and he should have succeeded too.
After all, he had sacrificed far too much for this plan.
They endured pain that ordinary people could not bear.
"Is this... the Insect King's replication ability...? What an monstrous ability! No wonder he's a Star God!"
That's right, what Jiang Lin obtained was the replication power of the Star God of Reproduction.
Admittedly, the concept of replication in the course of reproduction has been fragmented and diluted...
Even if it's just a tiny remnant in its physical body, it's abnormal to a degree unimaginable to mortals...
By consuming 1% of the imaginary energy that one can control, one can create a copy with 80% of one's own maximum strength.
At this stage, the maximum number of copies is 100...
But that's not the most perverse thing; the most perverse thing is these clones...
Both can be the original body!
In other words, when faced with mortal danger, as long as one of these clones escapes, he can be reborn in one of them.
Of course, it's not without its flaws; for every clone that exists, the user's maximum energy level decreases...
If he releases 20 clones, his total energy will be permanently reduced by 20% until all the clones die or return to the original body.
Moreover, as strength increases, consumption will decrease. Jiang Lin has reason to suspect that the consumption of copying the fully-formed Insect Emperor is 0%, or infinitely close to 0%!
In other words, it can be considered as having no consumption!
This is practically a life-saving technique!
With this layer of protection, he was confident that if Huanlong was seriously injured...
Finding her means her death!
If we still can't deal with her... then she can forget about letting me stay.
Jiang Lin identified the direction, took out the Star Chariot he had taken from Luo Fu, and followed the direction Huanlong was flying in.
In order to catch up as quickly as possible, he increased his speed to the maximum.
He hadn't flown far when he collided head-on with the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship's delegation...
And that's how the scene at the beginning came about...
Jiang Lin easily dodged Yun Li's greatsword, Old Iron; he wasn't the type to let someone hit him and not fight back.
Even if the person opposite you is a very cute little girl.
And so, a strange atmosphere began to emanate from Jiang Lin...
At first, Yun Li didn't sense anything unusual, but as time went on...
Yun Li's movements became slower and slower, and her body gradually became weak.
Even the speed at which he waved his iron arm has noticeably decreased.
"Hiss~ Damn it, what is this?"
Yun Li appeared listless and drowsy...
Sensing something was wrong, she immediately moved away from Jiang Lin...
“This is… homophony? No, it’s not the same…” Huai Yan stopped squinting and stared intently at Jiang Lin.
"Sir, you have a keen eye. May I ask if you are General Huaiyan, a celestial general from the Zhu Ming Immortal Ship?"
Although Jiang Lin spoke in a questioning tone, he had already confirmed the identity of the little old man in front of him...
"Haha, then is that young friend Jiang Lin, the 85th member of the Genius Club?" Huai Yan's tone was calm, with a comfortable and friendly feel to it.
"I didn't join the Genius Club, but I am indeed Jiang Lin." Jiang Lin frowned, a vague unease creeping into his heart...
"Young friend, you flatter me. The glance from the All-Knowing Heavenly Lord has already proven your wisdom. I believe you will soon receive an invitation from the club."
"Is the old general trying to stop me now?" Jiang Lin had already realized that the other party might be stalling for time.
"That's not it at all. I simply wish to invite you to visit my immortal abode."
Of course, the League won't punish you now just because of your future crimes. The League has that much magnanimity…”
After all, it is his future self who is guilty, not his present self.
"Grandpa, what are you saying? This person doesn't look like a good person!" Yun Li said with dissatisfaction after she came to her senses.
"Yun Li, please don't be rude! I've spoiled you since you were little, so please don't take it to heart. I apologize for this."
After scolding Yun Li a couple of times, Huai Yan spoke gently to Jiang Lin.
At this moment, Jiang Lin, who felt that Huai Yan's attitude was indeed without any malice, seemed to have realized something...
"Could it be that the old general is thinking about...something else..."
At this moment, Jiang Lin already had some ideas in his mind.
First, he could be certain that Huaiyan was definitely stalling for time.
However, he did not sense any malice from the other party.
Combining these ideas, he came up with an explanation—the Immortal Boat Alliance might need his help.
And this matter may not be a small one!
(The author had a fever last night, so there's only one chapter today. I don't know if it's good or not when I'm sick, but I'm really not feeling well today.)
Chapter 18 revealed his secrets.
"Indeed, as expected of a genius who has been noticed by the All-Knowing Heavenly Lord, your wisdom is indeed extraordinary."
Just then, a voice came from behind Jiang Lin.
Jing Yuan and Fei Xiao arrived at Jiang Lin's left and right sides at the same time.
"If you're not here to arrest me, then what brings you here, going to such lengths?"
Jiang Lin glanced at the formation before him: three envoys and many cloud cavalry...
If it were the old him, he would have surrendered immediately.
But if it were him now...
Well, at least we can get out unscathed...
Whether he can win or not is unknown, after all, he has never actually fought against the Envoy.
He could only roughly estimate the envoy's combat strength.
"If you would be willing to visit the Immortal Ship, then the Immortal Ship Alliance is willing to provide you with some...resource assistance. Moreover..."
Jing Yuan added confidently.
"I believe that what you desire surely exists on Mount Luofu..."
