Humans are devouring and selling off the heavens

One day later...

"boom!"

Like the sound of a bomb exploding, the concrete wall in front of Zheng Zha was punched straight through, sending fragments flying everywhere.

Zheng Zha's entire body has now swelled up like an inflatable balloon, exceeding two meters in length. His body surface is scorching hot, almost hot enough to bake the air, yet no sweat escapes from him.

His heart was pounding like a drum, with a frequency exceeding 400 beats per minute.

"Steam accelerates the heartbeat, closes the pores, and locks in the blood and qi, just like a steam engine constantly pressurizes the body and creates destructive power."

Zheng Zha muttered to himself.

The concrete wall was over two meters thick, made of reinforced concrete, and even missiles might not be able to penetrate it, but at this moment it was like foam cardboard in front of Zheng Zha.

"And the enhanced power from the Grade A gene potion, combined with the second-tier gene lock I unlocked after taking it, will allow me to unleash my full potential..."

As he spoke, his body swelled up again, almost turning into a small giant, which was the second stage of the gene lock!

At the same time, the vampire energy overflowed from Zheng Zha's brain and dantian, crossing the meridians and converging at his heart.

"That was an explosion!"

With a deafening roar, the two opposing forces collided, creating a booming sound, like a bomb exploding in the center of Zheng Zha's heart. Unparalleled power flowed through his blood and meridians, filling every muscle and bone in his body!

"Ha!"

Zheng Zha let out a roar and rammed forward.

"Bang!!!"

With a deafening roar, dust and debris flew everywhere, and fragments of cement and steel bars scattered in all directions like bomb shrapnel.

The entire concrete wall, three meters high and ten meters long, was smashed to pieces, with debris everywhere.

Zheng Zha turned around, looked at the messy scene, and nodded.

"These two abilities, steam and explosion, are truly terrifying."

"Phew, I wonder how Master Xu created these two skills. They feel perfectly suited to me, almost like I was born with them."

He exhaled a breath of stale air, and his body began to shrink, as if a boiler were boiling, with white mist billowing out.

"Hmm, I should go check on how well the others have mastered their powers after taking the gene potion."

…………

In the basement of Zhang Jie's home, in a vast expanse of land spanning hundreds of kilometers, some noisy sounds were currently rising.

Those were the Zhongzhou team members who had strengthened themselves, experimenting with and training their powers.

Everyone's eyes were blank, clearly indicating that they had already mastered the activation of the genetic lock.

A group of people experienced the fear of impending death in the alien world. That fear prevented them from relaxing even after gaining power, and they continued to familiarize themselves with their newfound abilities.

Of course, Zheng Zha and Chu Xuan were not among them.

Chu Xuan was staring at his laptop screen at the moment.

Zheng Zha watched from the side.

Staring at the fluctuating data on the screen, Chu Xuan, who had always been calm in Zheng Zha's memory, now spoke with a hint of fervor:

"Everyone's strength has increased at least tenfold, making it easy to lift a ton of weight, and their 100-meter speed is between 3.4 and 3.6 seconds, three times faster than the world champions, and this is just the tip of the iceberg."

He quickly swiped the mouse to bring up another set of data: "It's incredible. In addition to the increase in muscle strength, the other five attributes, such as intelligence, mental strength, cell vitality, nerve reaction speed, and immunity, have also improved, with the lowest increase being five times and the highest being more than ten times."

"Small-caliber bullets can only graze the skin, and we can even predict the trajectory of a bullet to dodge it."

As he spoke, Zheng Zha unconsciously glanced at the bandage on Chu Xuan's shoulder, which was still bleeding, and his lips twitched involuntarily.

But Chu Xuan seemed oblivious to the pain, continuing his fervent fervor:

"More importantly, this potion can unlock the gene lock. Although gene damage needs to be repaired after exiting, the enhanced physical fitness offsets most of the risks. Gene collapse that requires the main god to repair can even cost less than 100 reward points."

"Although I can hardly believe these numbers, overall, the enhancement from this potion is absolutely perfect."

After finishing speaking, Chu Xuan pulled up another set of data and, still with a fervent expression, said to Zheng Zha:

"And those seven combat suits you took out are several times harder than diamond. Once you wear them, you won't be afraid of bullets or guns."

"Wearing these combat suits and fully armed, even just the four of them would be enough to overthrow a small country."

"Even if two more of the Alien Queens we encountered before came, we, now enhanced, could eliminate them without taking any damage."

That's basically the situation.

"It seems that the items sold to you by the Lord of the Heavens Pavilion are far superior to those enhanced by the God Space," Chu Xuan said to Zheng Zha, adjusting his glasses.

The existence of the Zhutian Pavilion was something Zheng Zha told Chu Xuan after thinking for a moment when Chu Xuan privately asked him if he had a unique enhancement channel.

After the gene potion incident, Zheng Zha believed that there was no need to conceal the existence of the Zhutian Pavilion.

That's just the kind of person he is. Even though he had 5000 more reward points and a B-level side quest than others at the beginning, he never hid it from his teammates.

After listening to Chu Xuan's data and comparing it with his own strength, he pondered for a moment and then asked in confusion:

"Chu Xuan, I have some doubts. Even if it's just that B-grade potion, its effect is comparable to the enhancement of 3000 reward points from a double C-grade side quest."

"Not to mention that Grade A gene potion, the six attributes it gave me are dozens of times greater than the basic attributes of an ordinary person. It would take at least a Grade A side quest and 5000 reward points to compare with it. If you include the prerequisite enhancements, the reward points might be tens of thousands..."

At this point, Zheng Zha's face showed an expression of incomprehension.

It's not just about the improvement of the six-dimensional attributes; Grade B potions can unlock the first-tier gene lock, and Grade A potions can unlock the second-tier gene lock...

What about dragon blood and the spirits of plants?

Zheng Zha dared not think about it anymore.

"And by selling these things to me, Pavilion Master Xu will only receive some insignificant reward points, not even enough for a complete C-grade enhancement..."

The more he calculated, the more astonished he felt that the other party's spending was enormous.

The potions and equipment that Pavilion Master Xu casually took out could cause such a drastic qualitative change in people.

You should know that every reward point and every side quest in the God's Space was earned by Zheng Zha at the cost of his life.

However, the things he enhanced were practically garbage compared to the items given by Pavilion Master Xu.

Compared to these incredible items, Master Xu's terms of exchange were practically charity.

"Chu Xuan, you said..." Zheng Zha's Adam's apple bobbed, his voice unconsciously lowering, "Since Pavilion Master Xu has the ability to produce something of this caliber, why is his demand for reward points so... casual?"

After listening, Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses and said:

"There are many possibilities, the most likely being... that these items are extremely cheap for him, produced almost without any cost."

"At least for now, this cost is far lower than that of the Supreme God..."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Zha's forehead was damp with cold sweat.

"Nearly zero-cost output? Even lower than the main god... Is that possible...?"

A glint of fanaticism flashed in Chu Xuan's eyes: "What's impossible? You were in the Main God Space, but the All Heavens Pavilion was able to bypass the Main God and pull you away. We didn't even notice you left."

"This power is probably far beyond our imagination."

"The ability to easily create potions and equipment that surpass the enhancement effects of the Main God Space, at a negligible cost—what does that mean?"

Chu Xuan took a deep breath, his eyes revealing an unprecedented fervor and excitement.

"This means that the technology, power, or other unknown means they possess have reached a level that we cannot comprehend."

"The value of the goods they traded was severely disproportionate to the compensation they demanded."

"Take this transaction for example. The reward points we paid wouldn't even buy a decent bloodline in the Main God Space, but we got a potion in the Pavilion of All Heavens that unlocks everyone's genetic lock."

"This shows that in the eyes of the Zhutian Pavilion, the reward points and side quests of the Main God Space are probably not worth mentioning at all."

"Furthermore, I checked the items exchanged by the main god, and none of them have any enhancements that allow one to unlock the first-tier gene lock."

"If Grade A gene potion can evolve your genes to the second stage, then what about the even more potent Dragon Blood or the spirits of plants? To what extent can they advance your genes?!"

The fervor in Chu Xuan's eyes was as intense as magma.

"All signs indicate that the Pavilion of All Heavens... is likely an existence that surpasses the Main God Space..."

The Pavilion of All Heavens is an existence that surpasses even the Supreme God...

Zheng Zha was somewhat stunned...

When he thought about how they had been sent to various horror movie worlds by the main god, like ants, he could no longer imagine what kind of existence they were.

But what exactly is the Heavenly Pavilion, which surpasses even the main god...?

"Holy shit...this..."

Thinking of this, Zheng Zha's mouth went dry and his Adam's apple bobbed. Even though his physical fitness was dozens of times stronger than that of an ordinary person, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"No need to be nervous." Chu Xuan regained his composure, adjusted his glasses, and said, "This is just speculation, and it's only highly probable. But next, I have something else to tell you..."

He suddenly turned around, looked at Zheng Zha, his eyes blazing:

"I am 100% confident about this."

Chu Xuan then took a deep breath and said:

"I've found the option to go back to reality."

"What?!"

Zheng Zha's pupils suddenly contracted...
