Lin Qianxuan used the intelligent wristband to query Zhang Juan’s past information through the game character.

Unexpectedly, it wasn’t concealed, or perhaps Zhang Juan intentionally released it to intimidate the insignificant.

After reading through, Lin Qianxuan saw only one word.

That word is “kill”!

Zhang Juan’s debut battle was almost thirty-nine years ago in this world.

At that time, she was just starting out, killed the boss of a local brothel, and obtained her first bit of initial accumulation.

Then it was continuous killing.

Whenever she encountered unsatisfactory order or intolerable strong enemies, she would directly crush them, leaving rivers of blood in her path, often costing thousands of lives.

She even blasted the forces connected to Upper City with absolute martial power.

In the end, she forcibly broke through this realm and established a formidable reputation.

Yet, precisely because of this, under her rule, order is relatively better, production is more stable, and she even has trading channels with Upper City, engaging in some subcontracting business.

Ordinary people can also live a life with sufficient clothing and food through normal labor.

Elsewhere, various mind-altering drugs are rampant, the lower class faces constant peril, and chaos prevails.

People frequently die in the streets, their organs removed, and no one stands up for them.

Complete survival of the fittest.

By the way, the timekeeping methods of this world and Earth have some similarities, both being twelve months to a year, except a month can have up to thirty-two days, and a day is twenty-five hours.

Lin Qianxuan did some calculations, considering Zhang Juan disappeared for thirteen years, the time ratio of this world to Earth is at least more than one to three.

Compared to Qingling World, the time ratio here is not as exaggerated.

Yet Zhang Juan has led quite a lengthy life.

After experiencing so much, she could still maintain this kindness, even reminiscing old feelings in previous conversations, which Lin Qianxuan found incredible.

Should this golden character quality be said to be worthy of String of Destiny’s chosen heroine?

The more he understood these, the more Lin Qianxuan wanted Zhang Juan to survive.

For public or personal reasons, whether for himself or for the future of two worlds, he should ensure Zhang Juan’s survival.

If Zhang Juan died, countless people’s lives would be in turmoil, and he would feel genuinely regretful for life.

If saving Chen Long’Er was initially driven by a greedy desire to step into the Extraordinary World.

If rescuing Qingling World was out of lust and Earth’s unavoidable necessity.

Then now, it is solely for righteousness.

A good friend’s affairs demand obligation!

As for whether there’s any attraction to beauty?

It’s disrespectful, but frankly speaking, even as perverse as he is, he still finds Zhang Juan’s current situation a bit excessive.

He at least considers himself human.

He can accept and even like some non-human features.

But when over eighty percent is almost completely non-human and lacks aesthetic appeal, that’s another matter.

Of course, Zhang Juan’s current appearance could arguably have a kind of intense beauty.

Viewed individually, she truly merges various creatures’ excellent organs into one, perfectly fused, practically becoming a masterpiece of the world.

Shaking his head slightly, casting aside the distracting thoughts in his mind, Lin Qianxuan started contemplating the game’s next details.

It’s now clear that the current main quest is the Supreme Battle.

Becoming Supreme might be the only way to save Zhang Juan in the game.

The game character’s strength seems a bit lacking, still some distance away from entering Dao Realm.

And in the Supreme Battle, there are many Legendary Tier superpower users; the game character can’t possibly have the means to fight them without entering Dao Realm.

Lin Qianxuan feels he’s just a step away from Dao Realm now.

In fact, based on the destiny mark scene he saw earlier.

If no accidents occur, by the end of February, he will certainly enter Dao Realm.

Convert it, that’s just a few days before the Supreme Battle starts in the game.

So if the game character diligently cultivates, he should be able to break through before participating.

However, Lin Qianxuan suspects that even breaking through to Dao Realm may not guarantee victory in the Supreme Battle, the crux should still be with Zhang Juan.

Or more accurately, with her talent “Evolutionary Body”.

Lin Qianxuan inputted a line.

(Check the current adaptation level of the Evolutionary Body.)

[You carefully feel the state of the Evolutionary Body talent obtained from Zhang Juan, and soon you sense the current adaptation level of Evolutionary Body is 0.52%, needing more time to evolve for the first superpower.]

Due to the low degree of sharing and the short time, the progress bar is currently only at 0.52%.

Of course, this efficiency is quite fast.

You should know the game character has only been here for just over a day.

Convert that, at the current pace, normal living for two hundred days would allow a superpower lottery.

If it were a completely shared talent, perhaps a lottery could happen every few days.

No wonder Zhang Juan achieved legendary power in this world in such a short time.

Lin Qianxuan wants to accelerate the speed of adaptation acquisition.

Strategizing directly with Zhang Juan is temporarily impossible, so he decides to approach it from the talent itself.

According to the talent description, it’s about adapting to the environment.

He should be considered adapted to the current environment, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to live normally.

Does being in an extreme environment mean adaptation can rapidly increase?

What kind of environment is considered extreme?

Apart from standard gravity, thin air, and so on, can one’s negative status be considered?

For example, does injury count?

Does an environment with positive effects on oneself count?

For instance, does enhancing temporary healing abilities through Spiritual Liquid exceed the normal state of the body?

Is there a connection between the evolution of superpowers and the environment?

If there is a connection, does it mean the lottery pool can be controlled?

The golden glow of enlightenment from the Dragon Scale might be useful as well.

Maybe, abstractly, could it adapt to death, time, and space?

….

As he pondered, Lin Qianxuan instinctively utilized the strand of True Intent obtained from devouring the Dragon Scale, with his mind working rapidly, and countless possibilities and inspirations surfaced quickly.

He felt that the operability of this talent seemed bigger than he imagined.

This is a talent with infinite possibilities.

Which meant that this game might explore multiple ways to clear it.

For example, figuring out a way for the game character to evolve a superpower that can heal Zhang Juan.

Or taking the regal path, allowing him to evolve formidable power and claim the title of Supreme Sage.

Possibly even evolving a superpower to seize Zhang Juan’s superpower, taking over her conflicting abilities, wouldn’t that solve the problem?

While feeling the significant operational space of this talent, Lin Qianxuan also had a bad premonition within.

The gifts of destiny are never easy to obtain.

The broader the conditions, the greater the price required to change destiny, making it more difficult.

“Forget it, let’s try the regal path first!”

Lin Qianxuan shook his head slightly, deciding to try the orthodox method to clear the game first.

He input commands to prepare the game character to begin accelerating the acquisition of adaptability.

Currently, there are two ways for the game character to increase adaptability.

One is self-harm, artificially creating extreme environments for oneself.

The other is a beneficial buff, placing oneself in a state far exceeding the usual environment.

Lin Qianxuan chose the second method.

(Fully activate the aura of enlightenment from Chaotic Heaven, continuously illuminating oneself.)

In the game screen, an additional layer of hazy golden light appeared on the game character.

Then, Lin Qianxuan advanced the timeline slightly.

(Cultivate in place for two hours.)

[You cultivated for two hours, and under the influence of the aura of enlightenment, you made some detailed modifications to your cultivation technique, making it more suitable for yourself.]

In the game, the character further developed the cultivation technique, and Lin Qianxuan, curious, immediately had him express it.

After seeing it, Lin Qianxuan shook his head slightly.

The cultivation technique that fits his future self is actually harmful to him now.

There are certain discrepancies in cultivation, the method and intensity of energy operation, etc., so this cultivation technique doesn’t hold much significance for him, it can only serve as reference.

It’s not impossible to directly perfect an ultimate cultivation technique by stepping on one’s own feet, but he had already reached 90% resource utilization in cultivation, leaving little room for improvement.

Even if a better cultivation technique was created, it wouldn’t be much useful now.

If he really wanted to do it, there was no need for the String of Destiny game itself; directly using the Eyes of the Muddled Heaven to peer into the fate mark could allow him to constantly use future information for deductions, though the foresight time was not too far, at most around seven to eight months, it was still better than the month’s progress within the game.

(Check current adaptability of Evolutionary Body.)

[Current adaptability of Evolutionary Body: 23.58%.]

“Indeed, beneficial effects also count as extreme environments, an hour brings about a 11% increase or so? Calculating it this way, with an 18% talent sharing rate, it only takes nine hours to evolve the first superpower.”

Lin Qianxuan smiled, satisfied with this outcome.

Then he let the game character continue cultivating, waiting for the first superpower to evolve successfully.

He advanced the timeline, and seven hours quickly passed in the game.

Zhang Juan remained inactive, likely still recuperating.

Meanwhile, there was new change on the game character’s side.

[Throughout the long span of time, you have adapted to the current environment, your Evolutionary Body has undergone a new evolution, granting you a new superpower to aid in better survival in the current environment.]

[Please select one of the following two superpowers to load onto your Evolutionary Body.]

[Body Enhancement (Tier Two): Your physique will be enhanced and will gradually increase with sufficient energy.]

[Intelligence Enhancement (Tier Three): Your memory and computational abilities will significantly increase, allowing for endless inspiration during thought.]

“Is it selectable? There are even two options!”

Lin Qianxuan looked at the two superpower options on the screen, eyes filled with contemplation.

Evolution seems not entirely passive, but allows for active choice within a certain range.

From these two superpower’s simple descriptions, they are indeed greatly influenced by the environment.

The [Body Enhancement] superpower seems to be due to the game character’s cultivation of the Body Refining Technique, though the proportion seems small, so this superpower is only Tier Two.

The [Intelligence Enhancement] should be due to the Dragon Scale Aura, which accounts for a larger proportion, thus a Tier Three superpower.

Lin Qianxuan wondered if this indicated that the higher the proportion of the extreme environment, the higher the tier of the evolved superpower?

But even the Dragon Scale’s aura of enlightenment couldn’t reach beyond Tier Three, how extreme would Tier Four have to be? What about Tier Five? How exaggerated?

To directly draw a divine level superpower looks like it won’t be that easy!
