I am getting stronger and stronger in the world of demons and monsters

Thinking of this,

Lin Xuankong's expression shifted uncertainly.

If a super strong being at the third-tier life level in this primordial world possesses abilities comparable to a super life form at the Celestial Immortal realm, wouldn't they be able to overturn the world with a wave of their hand? It's estimated that this super planet, Mars, which is dozens or even hundreds of times larger than an ordinary planet, could be directly destroyed!
"That kind of life form"
They probably wouldn't care about plundering or devouring lower-level life forms anymore.

Because lower-level life forms would have to devour countless creatures to even slightly increase their strength!

Their target is probably only fourth-order life forms, or rather, there may not be any third-order super life forms among those who have come to this planet!
Hopefully, my guesses and analyses are similar to the impending cataclysmic crisis we'll encounter—it's all about fifth-tier or fourth-tier lifeforms from the Central Star, much like disciples of the immortal sects in the Golden Dragon Immortal Realm traveling to various secret realms or other places. The truly top-tier powerhouses probably won't have much interest in this planet, Yinghuo!

Lin Xuankong was pondering this.
Suddenly, footsteps sounded outside, and Han Liu's voice rang out, "Master Lin, a sixth-tier gene expert from the Zhennan Wang family just came to deliver a message, saying that if you have time, please go to the reception room. Patriarch Wang Zuo has something important to discuss with you!"

Stepping out of the seclusion room,
Lin Xuankong took a closer look at Han Liu, "Mid-stage of the fifth-order life level?"

Han Liu chuckled and said, "That's for sure. Although I can't keep up with the teacher's pace and speed, I'm still half a life level stronger than Brother Leopard, hehehe!"

Upon hearing this, Han Bao, who was standing behind Han Liu, immediately glanced at him and said, "Wrong, wrong, wrong. You are only half a life level higher than me. As for being stronger, that's not necessarily true. How about we have a fight now?"

"Let's fight then, who's afraid of who? I'm a powerful manifested gene expert at the mid-stage of the fifth rank, do you think I'd be afraid of you, Brother Leopard, a dragon-elephant gene warrior?" Han Liu immediately glared.

This guy refers to himself as a gene powerhouse, but calls Han Bao a gene warrior, clearly showing his resentment!

Over the past six months, Lin Xuankong had already instructed Han Bao and Zhu Ling to make arrangements at Shelter No. 36 and in Stone City before arriving at the Zhennan Wang family's location. Shelter No. 36 in Stone City now boasts approximately 30,000 gene warriors. Unless attacked by a large-scale horde of sixth-tier source beasts, they are perfectly capable of self-defense. As for an attack from Yunqin Kingdom or a cataclysmic disaster, that's not something Han Bao and Zhu Ling can handle simply by staying there!

After arriving in Crane City, the capital of the Wang family in Zhennan, Han Bao and Zhu Ling began to rapidly improve their strength. Now, Han Bao is at the early stage of the fifth-order life level, and Zhu Ling is at the late stage of the sixth-order life level, approaching the top level.

Both of them had a high degree of genetic compatibility, which was considered to be in the upper-middle level, both above 80%. Their cultivation speed was not slow to begin with. Of course, they could not be compared with the super geniuses with a genetic compatibility of 95% or even 100%!
but,

Under the influence of Lin Xuankong's "Old Age Without Fear" and "Mature with Age" talents, the two's life level advancement speed was thousands of times faster than that of geniuses with the same compatibility. This meant that their life level advancement speed was almost comparable to Lin Xuankong's, since their genetic compatibility was about twice that of Lin Xuankong! Thus, although their life level advancement speed was not as fast as Lin Xuankong and Han Liu's, they were close behind!
Seeing his two students joking around, Lin Xuankong, who was quite pleased with his rapid advancement in life level, couldn't help but smile and say:

"Speaking of which, if the two of you were to fight a thousand meters apart, Han Bao, you would definitely not be a match for Han Liu. After all, Han Liu's materialized gene ability and the powerful devouring ability of the Void Devouring Insect can, even if they cannot harm your Vajra Body in a short time, they can still keep attacking you and keep you at a disadvantage!"

Upon hearing this, Han Bao glared at Han Liu but didn't continue speaking. His teacher Lin Xuankong's comments were quite objective, and since it was his teacher who spoke, he naturally had to admit that the Dragon Elephant Gene Path experts did indeed have this weakness. In terms of long-range attacks, they were far inferior to elemental gene experts, materialization gene experts, and those strange and unusual ones such as plant-type gene experts!
Upon hearing Lin Xuankong's words, Han Liu immediately became arrogant and laughed loudly:
"Senior Brother, look, look! Even the teacher has said this, so you should be convinced now! Speaking of which, you're older than me, and we both became the teacher's disciples together, so I'll definitely respect you as the senior brother. However, when it comes to combat ability, you're simply not good enough. You can't deny it, and that's just a fact!"

As soon as Han Liu finished speaking, Lin Xuankong continued:

"However, if the distance is reduced to within 100 meters, Han Liu, you will not be a match for Han Bao!"

The incredible speed of a Dragon-Elephant gene powerhouse, especially a fifth-tier gene powerhouse, allows him to close the distance to you in a very short time and launch a close-range attack. You, as a manifested gene powerhouse, are far inferior to a fifth-tier Dragon-Elephant gene powerhouse in terms of physical strength and movement speed. You must admit this!

So, if the two of you were to have a big fight right here in this courtyard, you would undoubtedly be the one who gets hurt and loses!

Because you're currently too close to the little leopard. Your materialized Void Devourer might have just been unleashed, and the little leopard's fist, as big as a sandbag, could already be smashing into your face!

Han Liu's face fell. He, who had been so smug, became somewhat dejected because what Lin Xuankong said was indeed irrefutable, and he dared not arbitrarily refute his teacher's words!
Han Bao and Zhu Ling burst into laughter upon hearing Lin Xuankong's words.

Han Bao laughed heartily as he walked over and patted Han Liu on the shoulder. "Don't worry, Second Junior Brother, even if I were to beat you up right now, I wouldn't hit your face. At most, I'd stab your kidneys, kick your groin, gouge your eyes, and lock your throat. As your senior brother, I'll still be careful not to ruin your handsome face!"

"Huh? So, does that mean I should thank you for stabbing me in the kidney, kicking me in the groin, gouging my eyes, and choking me, Senior Brother?" Han Liu immediately rolled his eyes. Everyone burst into laughter again, and the atmosphere in the courtyard was quite cheerful.

In truth, Han Bao, Han Liu, Zhu Ling, and even You Rui had long known about the impending catastrophe, and they weren't certain whether they would survive it. Even so, they continued their cultivation methodically, constantly improving their strength, and always presented a rather optimistic image to their teacher Lin Xuankong and fellow disciples!
According to Han Liu, if the cataclysmic disaster is truly unavoidable and one is destined to die, then at the very least, one should live happily during the time before death. Otherwise, wouldn't it be too unjust and a miserable death?

The group followed Lin Xuankong, chatting and laughing, as they walked towards the reception room of the Wang family's headquarters in Zhennan.

We had just entered the huge courtyard outside the reception room when...

Many genetically powerful individuals standing in the courtyard all looked at Lin Xuankong.

Most of these genetically powerful individuals were at the sixth-order life level, and were disciples or subordinates of Zhao Jiulin, the white-haired Wu Peng, and Lin Haoyun, the strongest person in the Tang Kingdom. Like Han Bao and the others, they had all recently learned that the world-ending crisis was imminent. Therefore, before Lin Xuankong and the others arrived, everyone's expressions were quite solemn, because no one could see any hope in the face of this utterly hopeless world-ending crisis!

The Central Star Demon, capable of destroying all the powerful humans of the previous mythical generation on Mars, should have become even stronger after countless millennia of development. The human race on Mars developed for thousands of years, yet they were all destroyed in the last cataclysmic crisis. Even the great emperors who had reached the fourth-order life level perished. How could these gene powerhouses, who were only at the sixth-order life level, have any chance of resisting and winning?
However, upon seeing Lin Xuankong and his group enter the courtyard, these gene powerhouses from various super families across different countries all tensed up, staring at Lin Xuankong and his companions with extremely complex expressions, a mixture of envy and regret.

"Is this the Mr. Lin that Lin Zu mentioned? In just over half a year, he has already risen from the top level of the sixth-order life realm to the mid-stage of the fifth-order life realm, making him a super genius among super geniuses?"

As expected, his reputation was well-deserved. The energy fluctuations emanating from this Mr. Lin put immense pressure on me, almost as much as the pressure Lin Zu exerted on me when he was still at the fifth-tier life level! Tsk tsk, but he's only been at the fifth-tier life level for a little over half a year! This speed of advancement in life level is simply terrifying!

A sixth-tier gene powerhouse, clearly from the Lin family, the most powerful family in the Tang Kingdom, couldn't help but speak in a low voice.

"Mr. Lin's greatest strength isn't just the speed at which he advances his life level. Think back to all the super geniuses and powerhouses in our Tang Kingdom. Which one of them could advance from the fifth to the sixth level of life level in just a dozen days? Not a single one. In fact, looking across the entire Mars Planet, you can't find a single super genius who can fuse fifth-level source stone crystals so quickly! The fifth-level gene super powerhouses I know, even those who fuse fifth-level source stone crystals far faster than others at the sixth level, still took several months, like our Ancestor Lin!"
Tsk tsk, it's true that comparisons are the thief of joy. When I advanced from the sixth-order life level to the fifth-order life level, it wasn't this fast. I failed to fuse the source stone crystal several times, and only succeeded by chance on the last attempt. It took at least seven or eight years from the first fusion to the last successful fusion!
This gap is truly despair-inducing, it feels like there's no comparison!

Another genetically strong individual, also clearly from the Lin family, the most powerful family in the Tang Kingdom, sighed repeatedly.

"It's a bit of a pity that they were born at the wrong time. With the extraordinary talent of Mr. Lin and his disciples, and the speed at which they advanced their life levels, if they had been given a few more months, they could probably have become terrifyingly powerful top-tier fifth-order experts, giving our Mars human race more strength when fighting against the demons of the Central Star! But those demons of the Central Star will probably be arriving soon. Alas, they were born at the wrong time. If only Mr. Lin and his disciples had advanced to the fifth-order life level a few months ago!"

One of the lean, sixth-tier gene powerhouses couldn't help but sigh.

However, the sigh of this lean, sixth-tier gene powerhouse was more of a pessimistic and desperate look at the current situation, and a lament that Lin Xuankong and the others might have been born at the wrong time.

The other sixth-tier gene powerhouses also shook their heads, their faces gradually darkening. Even though Lin Xuankong and the others had set an astonishing record for the speed of life level improvement, making these gene powerhouses envious and amazed, all of this seemed to lose its significance with the impending doom of the world crisis!

Actually, it's not surprising that these sixth-tier gene powerhouses were generally in low spirits. Even their teachers or family heads felt that there was little hope, and had even decided to launch the second plan to preserve the human race. How much hope could these sixth-tier gene powerhouses, whose strength was far inferior to that of their teachers or family heads, possibly see in this impending absolute darkness?

"Brother Lin!"

A voice sounded,
Then, several sixth-order gene powerhouses quickly stepped out from the crowd and walked up to Lin Xuankong.

These sixth-tier gene powerhouses were none other than Zhang Yun, Guan Gu, Tian Guang, Sun Lin, and Huang Liang, who had fought alongside Lin Xuankong and Han Liu in the Qiushan Mountains. Clearly, they had all come to Zhennan Wangjia Crane City with Zhao Jiulin, the strongest expert in the Yun Song Kingdom.

Lin Xuankong smiled when he saw the group, "It seems that you all made it out of the Qiushan Mountains safely back then."

Zhang Yun, the second strongest man in Yuncheng who had invited Lin Xuankong to join the team, looked at Lin Xuankong and Han Liu carefully for a few moments, a look of emotion on his face. "It's only been a little over half a year since we parted ways, and I never imagined that you two would have already become fifth-tier gene experts. If it were more than half a year ago, a fifth-tier life level gene expert would already be the highest level among the countless gene cultivators on this planet! When we heard the news recently that Brother Lin and Brother Han had advanced to the fifth-tier life level, and that their life level was still increasing at an astonishing rate, we could hardly believe it!"
It seems that Brother Lin has not only advanced to the fifth-order life level, but has also reached the late stage of the fifth-order life level. If you are given more time, you will probably be able to rival my master's source energy fluctuation intensity! Truly, one should look at a person with new eyes after three days of separation!
