Multi-Gene

Chapter 522 - Ancient Ruin

"Alright, will you surrender or should I do it my self?" 

David was taken aback. Was this guy brain dead. He was about to respond when he noticed something was wrong. The guy wasn't in front of him anymore, but had appeared behind him in the blink of an eye. 

Raising an eye brow in surprise, he could already feel the wind behind him changing as a massive amount of strength headed for his waist. 

BANG!!! 

There was no warning, neither was there any reaction that led to anything.

The attack had appeared all of a sudden, right behind David.

David was instantly shocked since the attack came so suddenly he had no chance to react at all. 

Suddenly, David's body split into three as his two identical self appeared side by side to him.

BANG! 

The entire atmosphere changed in an instant and the wind rumbled releasing an explosive kind of shockwave that blasted around in a circle. 

The attack was comparable to an early heaven realm attack. 

Using Floating Wind, David rode on the shockwaves to distance himself even further. And he couldn't help but gaze at the young man in surprise. 

His expression had changed from the slight indifference he had to a frown with curiosity. 

"Who are you?" David instantly asked. The young man's genetic waves was still emitting the Penta-gene Phase, but David knew better, this young man not even a single bit older than him was actually an integrated Phaser! 

Just what level of talent could make one advance this fast? Even David whose talent was over the top didn't get this type of speed. 

The young man smiled brilliantly when as he heard David's question. "You are quite smart. But sadly, I don't just require brains, I also need to test your strength."

With that, he took another step forwards and space seem to literally shatter right before him as he appeared before David again.. 

David's eyes shine brilliantly. He was going to hold back his strength and stay low-key for a bit within the institution and wait till his master get back from where the Grand Professor had sent him, but he was already getting irritated by all this. 

David stood still as though he couldn't see the young man in front of him. Almost as if he had frozen in shock and was unable to move from fear. 

The young man had a trace of disappointment on his face as he saw this, but still he didn't lessen his attack, instead he stuck out his fist against David's chest. 

The moment the fist connected to his chest, the entire world went silent as sound waves was immediately disrupted. 

In the next second though, a world shaking explosion resounded as the fist struck David's chest. 

The wind warped, shockwaves spread out in three direction, but it was unable to pass by David's body as he remained standing like a pool. 

The buildings within a five hundred meter radius was immediately struck by the resulting shockwave, wanting to turn them to smithereens, but a blue protective barrier formed around the place, originating from the grand professor's building.

The ground caved in as two wide deep trenches elongated from David's left and right due to the shockwaves having no path to pass by, David's body literally blocked their path.

The young man's eyes opened wide and a look of shock appeared on his face. He gazed at David's chest which was even harder than steel and than gazes up at David who had an indifferent smile on his face.

"Are you done tickling me?" David asked, tilting his head sideways.

The young man appeared slightly flustered. His heels hit the ground as he appeared a hundred meter away from David.

He was solemn and appeared very serious. David had literary just taken the attack of his full strength with his body without so much as shaking or moving. 

David was like an immovable block of steel. And while he had hadn't phased yet and used the strength, of his Integrated Phaser, the strength of his body was still higher than that of an Hex-gene Phaser in his full form. 

Even then, David's body was able to withstand his attack without as much as a groan escaping his lips. Just what sort of body was able to achieve this type of defense?

Taking in a deep breathe he muttered silently to himself before making a decision, he then gazed at David and said. 

"I'm Alan Kìrri?, and I'd like to invite you in my expenditure."

David was at first taken aback, then he visibly frowned. "Alan Kìrri?? Kìrri? from the Nine great family?" 

"It appears you are quite knowledgible and posses quite the bit of information about the Nine Family." The young man, Alan smiled. 

"What's the meaning of this Young master Alan?" At some point, Lu Feng had appeared not to far from Young master Alan. His expression was dark as he questioned the young master. 

"Your services are no longer useful to me. The two of you couldn't even take care of a single person, you will courting death if you journey to the Ancient Ruins with this little strength you have." Young master Alan stated indifferently. 

Lu Feng expression turned cold immediately and be gritted his teeth. "You can't do this young master Alan. You have already chosen us, changing your decision will prove to the others your incompetence."

Young master Alan expression turned frigid cold in an instant as he turned sideways to gaze at Lu Feng. "You should leave before I do something you will regret."

Li Feng shivered as the gaze met him. Instantly, he knew had said something out of anger. He quickly bowed his head, taking Janeane off the ground where she was still trying to get rid of David's genetic energy and then, he left in a hurry. 

Young master Alan watched coldly before he sighed, robbing his head to ease his headache, he turned towards David and asked. 

"What do you say?"

David's amused expression toward the scene that had happened right before him slowly changed and he gazed at the young master with lack of interest. 

"I reject your invitation." David shruggeda d he turned to leave. This charade had already taken his precious time. 

Young master Alan frowned seeing David leave. "Wait. I'm not done explaining yet."

Dsvid sighed and turned back. "I just got back to the institute after a long while, hadn't even met master nor my other classmates yet and you're telling me to go with you in an expenditure to some ancient ruin? Of course I'd reject."

The young master had a look of understanding on his face, and he shook his head as he said. "The Ancient Ruin has been opened for a while now, but the nine family hadn't planned on going in there yet. Instead, we sent some people within the ancient ground to test the ruin."

"Until those people emerge, we of the Nine Family would refuse to enter without knowing the situation of things within the ruin."

"I suspect they wouldn't emerge in three to four months, so you have more time to think things over." The young master persuaded.

David was quite surprised with the information of a ruin, but he wasn't really surprised since he had been to a Sacred Ground previously at the academy. And it was safe to say that he had had enough of grounds or ruins, he just wanted to stay within the institute, grow even more stronger with the resources at hand until the day he finally faces the True Wolf King. 

While he could use the world essence within the ruin to grow stronger, he also needed blood and meat to recover if he wanted to progress rapidly with the heaven grade technique. 

"My answer still remains the same. I refuse your offer."

The young man frown deepened. But then he smiled slightly as he said. "I will be seeing you soon."

With that, he turned around and left, but not without gazing backwards at the Grand Professors building. 

Davjd pursed his lips at the young man's words, but then he proceeded to leave to, but not without glancing backwards at the old man's place. 

'It appears I will be stealing the blood pool anyways.'

With that, he bowed slightly and turned to leave. 

* * * * *

With the court yard, an old man stood before a steel wall with his hands behind his back, his expression was plain, but his eyes and tuned into a pitch black slot like that of a lizard. 

Seeing the David leave, he blinked his eyes and by the time his eyelids opened, his eyes was already back to normal. 

But his expression was even more cold and the frown on his face was even more apparent. 

"Almost fooled me."

David had just reached his room when he frowned visibly. There was two messages on his tab, one anonymous while tbe other from the Grand Professor
