Rebirth: Super gene

Chapter 20: Tyrant minotaur



BANG!

Bian had applied yin force to the spear to make it penetrate deeply, he didn't expect the scales of the serpent to be so tough. The yin energy was redirected back into his arms weakening his bones, before the spear broke.

Bian ignored the stinging pain in his arms as he quickly climbed unto the snake using ghosthaunt. He avoided being smashed into paste as he tried to squeeze the serpent's throat. It didn't work out.

Bian was forced to let go and re-evaluate his situation "I don't have any normal weapons that can damage it." He jumped to the right using sparticle, the spot where he was standing a second ago had venomous poison corroding the ground.

'Time to fight poison with poison' he summoned the manticore, moved back and summoned a mutant ghost butterfly. The scales of this serpent were to sturdy, even the first mutant ghost butterfly boomerang he threw at it could only deal burn damage.

The manticore flew with great speed as it shot spikes at the serpent. The spikes bounced of the scales but served their purpose as a distraction. The manticore stabbed the serpent in its burnt injury.

HISS!

'Now' Bian threw a mutant ghost butterfly boomerang into the mouth of the serpent. It seemed to glow from the inside as smoke rose from its body, it turned around and went towards the jade mountains. 

Bian summoned a mutant iron horned goat mount and chased after the serpent while the manticore stalked it from the sky. The serpent was fast even when injured and would soon make its way back to jade mountains.

Bian transformed into a giant tiger and chased after the snake he jumped and held down the tail, the manticore seized the moment and stabbed its eyes, as the serpent screeched in agony Bian downed another mutant butterfly boomerang down into its throat, the serpent fell on the ground, as he was thinking of a way to finish it.

ROAR!

A deafening roar came from the jade mountains, a 2.5 meter tall black minotaur was rushing over, Bian quickly threw another mutant ghost butterfly boomerang at the opened eye of the serpent.

[Sacred-blood creature sapphire serpent killed. The beast soul has been gained. Eat its flesh to gain 0 to 10 sacred geno points]

Type of sacred-blood beast soul of sapphire serpent: sleeve guard

Ignoring the fact that the red snake was called a sapphire serpent, Bian used sparticle continuously to run from the minotaur but it was gaining on him.

"It's speed is much but not excessive, it should still be a sacred-blood creature" Bian turned around and got ready to face the minotaur.

An invisible ring only seen by Bian formed and locked onto the body of the minotaur, he threw multiple primitive ghost butterfly boomerang at it while the manticore shot venemous spikes towards it. The minotaur didn't bother to dodge and ran past them, he threw two mutant ghost butterfly boomerangs at it in quick succession. The creature went up in flames.

Bian looked into the fire wondering if it was wounded the suddenly the minotaur burst forth from the flame rushing towards him at an astonishing speed, its figure sped up and appeared before Bian in an instant. Fist raised ready to punch him to death.

The manticore was to far away to react, Bian jumped in the air and summoned the sacred blood sleeve guards. They formed from his wrist to his armpits, looking like red ruby scales shinning in the sunlight.

The punch of the minotaur instantly broke these sleeve guards and sent Bian flying faster than a bullet, in that brief moment a sonic boom echoed through the forest. Bian summoned back the manticore as he flew through the air at an astonishing speed.

"I can't move my right arm" his arm dangled by his side as he used jadeskin to subside the pain. He summoned the manticore to catch him midair and landed on the ground. The earth trembled as the minotaur caught up to them, Bian had a murderous look in his eye as he summoned a sacred-blood ghost butterfly boomerang and threw it at the minotaur.

The minotaur planned on bulldozing through it but wasn't expecting introduction to a world of pain.

ROAR! 

It roared in agony causing Bian's eardrum began to bleed but his eyes were sharp. He threw another sacred-blood ghost butterfly boomerang into the mouth of the minotaur burning it from the inside and outside. It moved foward a little bit before collapsing on the ground.

[Sacred-blood creature tyrant minotaur killed. The beast soul has been gained. The meat is inedible]

"Yay I'm so lucky" Bian said sarcastically as he held his broken arm. The manticore had good defense but weak attack other than its venom it couldn't help much against the minotaur.

Type of sacred-blood beast soul of tyrant minotaur: pet

Bian went back to the serpent and cooked a portion of it, he gave the rest to the minotaur. He ate 60 pounds of meat

[Flesh of sapphire serpent eaten. One sacred-blood geno point gained]

[Flesh of sapphire serpent eaten. One sacred-blood geno point gained]

He ran dongxuan sutra to speed up his metabolism then practiced heresy mantra. He finished the first stage and was to start practice for the second stage, seeing through the mirage.

Like a withered plant collecting water Bian Manwei felt rejuvenated and reinvigorated. His cardiac function way better than that of an average person, his body had gotten stronger and lighter.

"Lighter?" He felt a little too light, he looked into a pond and found that he looked skinny. All bones with no meat, but his power was bubbling from within.

After sending the manticore back to the underwater cave he made his way to steel armor shelter, every Tom, dick and Harry looked his way feeling pity for Bian thinking he must have been lost for a very long time.

Bian went back to alliance central military academy. He was admitted into the hospital immediately, the doctor told him that his arm was broken into fine particles. They couldn't fix it with technology, but could give him a new mechanical arm which he refused for obvious reasons.

He would need a surpasser with healing abilities for a complete recovery. His body and ear drum were fine and would recover in a few weeks. Bai Yishan informed the professor Min and the saints hall of his situation.

Bian stayed in the hospital for months. Occasionally his roommates would visit him, Han Yan also came and stayed with him from time to time, his parents called and greeted him to get well soon even Ran Manwei his little sister called, he felt happy inside.

Bai Yishan offered to take Bian under his wing as a research assistant, since he wasn't going anywhere he agreed. Bian was sent tons of notes and research data on hyper geno art, practicing with mental point targeting to strengthen these memories and turn them to Knowledge.

He spent his school months reading and revising on hyper geno arts raising his theoretical knowledge to the limit. He would need practice and experimentation to continue advancing

One day Bai Yishan said, "just wait four more months, then a good friend of mine will show up and fix your arm. Looks like you won't be able to partake in the academic competitions though"

A competition between the different academies coming up in two months.

Bai Yishan went on "I could sense yin energy in your broken arm. You misused the yin-yang blast. Now the Saints hall are keen on banning it, Nalan Chenguo is my last hope." Bai Yishan suddenly changed the topic and said "You are now a researcher, when you recover I'll take you to the saints hall to be officially recognized. There's a surprise waiting for you, look forward to it." 

...

Han Yan spent most of her time in the sanctuaries improving her strength with jadeskin her physique gained huge improvements and so did her looks. During the interacademic competitions students weren't allowed in the sanctuaries so she came to stay with Bian.

"You look happy" Han Yan said as she poked his face

"Yeah, I get a room all to myself, why wouldn't I be happy"

"How are you feeling?"

"I feel good, other than my broken arm" Bian looked at his arm as he responded. He had to spend multiple months using his left hand, his dexterity increased a lot. Bian couldn't perform delicate tasks with the hand like writing neatly but was better than most people in the use of his left arm.

Bian looked at his broken arm and though 'if not for those sleeve guards the arm would have been blown off or maybe I would have died.' Bian looked at Han Yan and had a change in his plans.

"Which shelter are you in" Bian asked 

"Green shelter" replied Han Yan

Then Bian said "don't go anywhere I'm coming for you."

Han Yan rolled her eyes at his antics but smiled.

Bian sucked in a breath of cold air when he saw her smile.

"Yan" he looked her in the eye butterflies in his stomach "will you be my girlfriend?"

Han Yan smiled and said "...
