Multi-Gene

This space ring isn't bad." David grabbed the space ring and his genetic energy immediately rushed in, prying it open and checking the contents inside.

"So wealthy."

"He had about 10 times more than the 13 axe." David was still smiling initially. However the more he searched, the more he began to frown. There were large amounts of currency within, along with some valuable weapons and treasures in many boxes. However, his initial scan didn't pick up any blood river crystal.

The appearance of the crystal was something he had seen before in the common knowledge books.

"There's no way he doesn't have it. What if it's not on his body, no way." David searched again carefully, especially within a box of gems, there were many crystals within. David split his genetic energy into 1,000 threads and individually inspected each of them. Immediately, a smile appeared on his face.

With a flip of his hand!

A round black crystal appeared in his palm. Looking at this crystal before him, David shook his head, "This Rothwell Zhade, he even disguised the blood river crystal and threw it in with the rest of the gems. Anyone who doesn't search properly with genetic energy would have missed it."

"Chi chi…" The black round crystal in his palm was attacked by needle like genetic energy. It immediately began to split open. Very quickly, the layer of black broke and it finally revealed the blood river crystal within!

Blood red!

Blood red in color, the color of life.

It was a long triangular crystal, transparent and blood red, glowing slightly, with a formless ripple about it, it gave off a faint feeling of a heart beating, ripples that beat after another.

"Blood river crystal!" David looked at the triangular transparent crystal in his palm. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Beautiful!"

Hu!

He waved his hand and Rothwell Zhade's body on the floor vanished, followed by the blood stains and smell of blood in the air all vanished as well.

"Very good, within a short time, no one will ever know that Rothwell Zhade is already dead." David smiled, "I think that they would have thought Rothwell Zhade must have headed to somewhere else." Warriors secluding themselves or disappearing for 1 or 2 years was a very normal thing. Even though he was a general, disappearing for 3 to 5 days wasn't a thing to be suspicious of.

Sou!

David became a blur and rushed out from the window, disappearing hundreds of km away in an instant.

The entire palace was silent.

The large amounts of soldiers, staff and guards within the general's mansion all didn't know that their general was already dead.

At the same time that David had killed Rothwell Zhade and acquired the blood river crystal.

Within Heaven Devour city leader's mansion.

"Come, drink!"

"Haha, Rothwell junior. We haven't seen each other in so long, and you've already become a city leader. Your seniors are really happy, drink, drink." Within the living room, a group of beautiful women were dancing. Three men were laughing loudly and drinking their wine, one of which was Heaven Devour city's person with the most authority, city leader Rothwell Mane.

The other two were dressed in grey standard armor.

"Senior, I've only become a city leader. How can I compare to you? You've become a special envoy of the Eternal shrine. No matter where in our continent, who would dare disrespect you?" Rothwell Zhade laughed loudly.

"It's nothing." The handsome middle aged man laughed.

"Senior, you and Special Envoy Tatthe, for what reason have you two rushed over from the Eternal shrine for?" Rothwell Zhade asked curiously.

The handsome middle aged man and special Envoy Tatthe beside glanced at each other. Envoy Tatthe spoke, "Brother Rothwell, it's not that we don't want to tell you, it's just the Eternal shrine's rules. Hence, we cannot disobey. Actually we rushed over this time is mainly because of your master, also the leader of the world city. We cannot say anything else."

"As it is something regarding your master, I arranged for old Tatthe to come along as well. Since we passed by your place, naturally we had to come pay you a visit." The handsome middle aged man smiled.

"I've missed you too." Rothwell Zhade exclaimed, "Speaking of which…"

...

When Rothwell Zhade was accompanying his 2 friends and chatting, he didn't even know that his younger brother had already died.

...

300,000 km away from Heaven Devour city, in the wilderness, David sat.

"1 blood river crystal!"

David grabbed the blood river crystal and stared at the incomparably mysterious crystal. "One of the dangerous level missions was to acquire this 1 crystal to get 10,000 points. I can use it to exchange for points or I can absorb it."

"What should I do?"

"Without a doubt!" David began to grin as his finger became like a blade, slicing his left palm.

Chi!

A slash wound opened and fresh blood flowed out. David took a deep breath and placed this triangular blood river crystal within that wound. This was the absorption technique from the books he had read, and during his time in the city he had heard others discuss. Almost everyone in the entire blood river continent knew this.

Although the method was simple, doing it was hard!

"Is it going to be difficult?" David looked at his palm.

The beautiful and glaring crystal touched and began to fuse with the wound. Especially when it first touched the wound, immediately a formless peculiar energy burst forth from the crystal. Almost like a wild beast that had been suppressed for too long raging and rushing into David's body. 

"Rumble!"

A formless incredibly brutal and powerful willpower descended on him, fusing with his consciousness.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

An endless stream of wild shouts to kill roared within his mind. That formless brutal and powerful willpower was clashing time and again with his own. It was purely a test of willpower. Willpower differed from each other. Consciousness was something that was linked to the strength of one's genetic energy, willpower however was reliant completely on one's belief and strength.

David smiled. 

"it's truly similar to the blood crystal I back then. Expect the blood crystal in my possession is more condensed of this one here is similar to a pond, the one with me is as vast as the ocean, cannot even compare. Moreover, I've been absorbing the blood esscense for more than 30 years, training my will power as well as my blood origin art and mental art, this little bit if struggle is like an itch to me now.
