Chapter 281: Chapter 143: Killing at the Doorstep, Life and Death Crisis_3

The darkness gradually closed in before his eyes, and he could only mutter curses intermittently.

Liang Yuan ignored him and turned to look at the only person still alive in the room, Zheng Guoqiang.

At this moment, Zheng Guoqiang already understood that Liang Yuan would never let him go.

He retreated on the ground, using both his hands and feet, tears streaming down his face in terror.

"No, don’t kill me, Mr. Liang, I promise, I promise I won’t tell anyone. I’ll act like I didn’t see what happened today. Please, I’m begging you, let me go..."

As he spoke, he quickly retreated toward the balcony.

Liang Yuan didn’t waste any more words. He raised the steel rod in his hand, ready to strike.

Suddenly, Zheng Guoqiang, who had been trembling and shaking all over, suddenly leaped up.

Liang Yuan was startled. This old man moved so fast, it was impossible to tell he was over fifty!

In an instant, Liang Yuan thought of a possibility!

"No, he’s awakened!"

Liang Yuan immediately understood. Watching as Zheng Guoqiang flipped over and directly smashed through the window.

With a crash, he jumped out of the window!

Liang Yuan’s figure flashed instantly, rushing to the window and looking down.

But just as he stuck his head out, a gust of wind blasted up from below.

Zheng Guoqiang, that old fool, was only pretending to jump; he hadn’t actually jumped down. Instead, he was hanging onto the balcony with one hand.

When Liang Yuan came over and leaned out to check, Zheng Guoqiang suddenly punched him.

His hand, with its thick, enlarged bones, grew visible bone spikes piercing through the flesh, sinister and sharp!

Those bone spikes, silver-white like knives, were sharp and deadly.

As his punch came down, it roared through the air with a whistling sound!

Liang Yuan’s pupils contracted, and he quickly leaned back!

Whoosh—!

The punch, carrying bone spikes, grazed past his face, narrowly slicing the skin on his forehead.

Blood droplets oozed out, and Liang Yuan’s heart pounded wildly!

He had never imagined that he would almost fall into a trap here and be killed by a sneak attack.

Amidst the wild pounding of his heart, a strange energy seemed to sprout from his heart.

A peculiar energy was born from his cells and spread through his genes.

Meanwhile, Zheng Guoqiang, having missed his strike, violently grabbed downwards with his backhand.

The bone spikes, sharp as daggers, aimed to pierce through Liang Yuan’s neck.

Liang Yuan rapidly retreated, his spiritual power high enough, his reflexes quick enough.

Coupled with his not-underrated agility, he dodged the strike almost instantly.

The energy within him continued to spread, cells swelling unusually.

Simultaneously, a miraculous energy filled his body.

"Superpower awakened!"

Liang Yuan never thought Zheng Guoqiang, this old fool, would push him to awaken his superpower!

Liang Yuan’s face changed dramatically, knowing he couldn’t delay any longer!

The superpower awakening process had the danger of spirit shock! NovelFire

With his mutation progress at 30%, the risk was reduced, making awakening easier.

But Liang Yuan didn’t want to take any risks, nor did he want to give that old fool a single chance!

"Spirit Shock!"

Without another word, Liang Yuan launched a spirit shock directly.

Buzz!

The powerful spiritual force instantly surged into Zheng Guoqiang’s mind.

Zheng Guoqiang, just about to flip back into the house, was struck by the spirit shock!

In an instant, blood oozed from his nose and mouth, his eyes bulged wide, and he let out a scream.

He wavered on his feet, staggering, and immediately fell towards the windowsill.

Fear filled Zheng Guoqiang’s eyes as he endured the excruciating pain in his mind, while his hands continuously sprouted numerous bone spikes.

Crack, crack, crack...

Countless bones broke through his palms, spreading and forming grotesque bone arms.

He frantically grabbed at everything he could.

Crash, crash...

The wall skin was torn, the window was shredded.

Finally, his fall slowed as he grabbed a window. The massive bone arms swung rapidly.

Amidst flailing and swinging, he flipped and leaped into a household.

Simultaneously, Liang Yuan rushed to the window, watching with his own eyes as the old man did not fall into the water but jumped into someone’s house.

Anger and surprise filled his heart, but the spiritual effects of the superpower awakening had already manifested.

A mixed spiritual wave assaulted his consciousness.

Liang Yuan took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.

With a spiritual power of over 12 points, he desperately suppressed the chaotic spirit shock.

Those spiritual distractions came from the depths of his genes.

It was as if countless thoughts flooded his mind, yelling at him, forcing him to choose.

Human genes are typically only partially utilized.

Most genes remain dormant. NovelFire

Long before the great flood, scientists had already discovered.

Many genes in humans are similar to those of other animals.

Some large segments of genes are even identical to those of other animals.

In fact, most organisms on Earth share similar genes.

However, genes are selective.

Different environments and ecosystems activate different genes and cause evolution.

On the path of evolution, human ancestors activated neural genes, expanded brain capacity, and evolved astonishing intelligence and rich neuron cells.

This genetic selection allowed humans to stand out among countless life forms, reaching the apex of the biological chain.

Now, with the flood raging, the path of evolution reopened.

Among humans, various mutant abilities awakened.

Many of these abilities matched the deepest desires in the hearts of those awakening.

Ultimately, this determined the direction of the awakening’s evolution.

At this moment, on the edge of life and death, Liang Yuan too began his mutation journey under Zheng Guoqiang’s sneak attack.

Inside him, countless genes cried out, shouting.

It was as if they all wanted to be chosen, to be activated!

Liang Yuan remained unmoved. His powerful spiritual power forcibly maintained his clarity, preventing himself from being overwhelmed by these distractions and turning into a lunatic.

He thought rapidly, "What kind of ability should I awaken?"

"A spirit type ability?"

"No, I have attribute points and can add points at any time. Awaken one single attribute would be too wasteful!"

"Spatial Ability? I’ve been saying I’m a Space Ability User, using the system item box as a cover, it does seem like a spatial ability. Should I awaken space power?"

"No, that won’t do. Deciding my evolution path just to hide the system’s existence is too wasteful!"

"Power, like Deng Hu? I have the Muscle Burst skill, awakening a strength superpower could maximize the skill’s potential!"

"No! The weakness is too apparent!"

"Frost Superpower? Like Zhao Kai... Being able to freeze the water surface can walk on it..."

"No, it’s not good. Once the ice breaks, I’ll still fall into the water."

"Should I awaken a water-related superpower? Water is the source of all life! All living beings cannot do without water."

"In this era of the great flood, controlling water would undoubtedly give a significant advantage..."

As his thoughts swirled, Liang Yuan’s heart reached a decision.
