Chapter 72: Ch 72- Monsters
Eighteen days passed in the blink of an eye.
Mo Yuan had become so immersed in cultivation that he didn’t even realize how much time had passed. He spent almost all his time inside the cultivation room, continuously absorbing the energy from the Peak Grade Beast Blood and circulating the Primordial Qi Body Tempering Method.
Finally, he slowly opened his eyes.
"Time really flies. I think I should set an alarm from now on, otherwise I might spend too much time cultivating without realizing it."
Mo Yuan stretched his body and stood up.
His strength has reached 280,000 jin while his speed has increased to 1120m/s.
"Now it’s time to check the talents of the people in Cang Lan Base."
Mo Yuan left the cultivation room.
When he entered the living room, he saw Mo Ran sitting on the sofa and playing with Kitty. The small black cat was jumping around while Mo Ran laughed and tried to catch her.
Looking at the two of them, Mo Yuan suddenly remembered something.
’Mo Ran is almost thirteen years old.’
’It’s about time I put her in school.’
Mo Yuan had been so busy with cultivation and other matters that he had almost forgotten about it.
Although Mo Ran’s Cultivation Talent wasn’t particularly good, Mo Yuan wasn’t too worried about it. Now that he had reached Cang Lan Base, there were many more resources available.
If he could find the right treasure, he might even be able to improve her talent.
When Mo Ran noticed him, she immediately smiled.
"Good morning, brother."
Kitty also noticed Mo Yuan.
The small black cat immediately jumped from the sofa onto his shoulder and started licking his face.
"Hey, Kitty, stop that."
Mo Yuan pushed her away with a helpless expression but Kitty simply returned to his shoulder.
Soon, the three of them had breakfast together.
After eating, Mo Yuan left the house.
As soon as he stepped onto the street, he looked around at the huge buildings and busy roads.
He couldn’t help sighing.
’This really feels like I’m back on Earth.’
The streets were crowded with people and vehicles moved along the wide roads. There were shops everywhere, along with huge buildings that made Dong Hai Base look like a small village in comparison.
Mo Yuan walked through the streets while quietly checking the talents of the people around him.
Standard Grade.
Superior Grade.
Standard Grade.
Most of the people he encountered had Standard Grade Cultivation Talent.
There were also quite a few people with Superior Grade talents and occasionally, he found someone with Peak Grade Cultivation Talent.
However, something surprised him, he couldn’t find any special talents.
Mo Yuan frowned slightly.
’High Cultivation Talent is already what I expected but why aren’t there any special talents?’
He continued walking and secretly checked more people.
The result was still the same.
’Is there some reason behind this? Or are special talents are really that rare, even in a large base like Cang Lan Base?’
Mo Yuan couldn’t simply walk around the streets forever searching blindly.
He needed information.
’There should be records about the powerful geniuses in Cang Lan Base. If I know where they are, finding good talents will become much easier.’
With that thought, Mo Yuan changed his direction.
’I should go to the Martial Hall and buy some information about the geniuses of Cang Lan Base. I also need some basic information about the base.’
Soon, Mo Yuan arrived at the main branch of the Martial Hall.
Compared to the branch in Dong Hai Base, this Martial Hall was much larger and more crowded.
As soon as he entered, an attendant approached him.
"What would you like to buy, sir?" the attendant asked politely.
"I want information about the geniuses of Cang Lan Base. Also, give me some basic information about the current situation of Cang Lan Base."
The attendant nodded.
"Alright, sir. Please wait a moment."
He turned around and walked inside.
About five minutes later, he returned with a folder in his hand.
"Here is the information you requested, sir."
Mo Yuan took the folder and checked the price before paying.
"Thank you."
He then left the Martial Hall. After returning home, Mo Yuan immediately went to the cultivation chamber.
He sat down and placed the folder in front of him.
"Let’s see what kind of geniuses Cang Lan Base has."
Mo Yuan opened the folder and began reading the information carefully.
The information in the folder was divided into two main categories.
The first was cultivation geniuses, while the second was combat geniuses.
Mo Yuan quickly understood why they were separated.
Having a good Cultivation Talent was the foundation for every cultivator. Without a strong Cultivation Talent, it was difficult to improve quickly. However, having a powerful special talent on top of a good Cultivation Talent was like adding cream to the top.
The first name on the list immediately caught Mo Yuan’s attention.
Qin Wushang.
He was the number one genius of Cang Lan Base and a member of the Qin Family.
According to the information, Qin Wushang possessed a Peak Grade Berserker Talent. It was rumoured that when activated, the talent could increase his strength by fifteen times.
Mo Yuan’s eyes widened.
"Fifteen times?"
Qin Wushang was also a sword user and possessed at least a Peak Grade Sword Talent. More importantly, he had already reached the Peak Origin Sea Realm.
"Holy shit, this guy is seriously overpowered."
Mo Yuan couldn’t help sighing.
’My Peak Grade Strength Talent only gives me a ten times boost. I guess not every Peak Grade Talent provides the same multiplier.’
He continued reading the information about Qin Wushang.
’With a fifteen times strength boost, his physical strength alone must be terrifying and he also has a Peak Grade Sword Talent.’
’He probably has some powerful sword technique too. If that technique gives him another two or three times multiplier, his actual combat power would be ridiculous.’
Mo Yuan rubbed his chin.
’Damn, I’m really behind this guy.’
For the first time since arriving at Cang Lan Base, Mo Yuan felt a little pressure.
There were clearly monsters here who were far stronger than ordinary cultivators and Qin Wushang was only the number one genius of Cang Lan Base. There were probably even stronger geniuses in several other larger bases.
