Defensive, the Last Type of Talent
In the center of an underground space covering hundreds of square meters and more than twenty meters high, stood a circular white crystal pillar with a diameter of over ten meters.
The surface of the white crystal pillar shimmered with light, and at every moment, countless waterfalls flowed across it, processing an astronomical amount of information, exceeding hundreds of trillions.
Standing in front of the crystal pillar, Chen Chu spoke, "Tian Yu, I want to inquire about the secret techniques that can converge and even alter life energy."
"Identity verification passed, searching…"
As the little girl's voice echoed, the scene in front of Chen Chu changed, and dozens of names of secret techniques appeared.
"Currently, there are forty-six related secret techniques found, including twenty-one ordinary techniques, seventeen advanced techniques, and eight top-tier techniques."
As the 'number one' genius of the Human Race, Chen Chu's permissions were nearly on par with a king in certain areas, and the search and inquiry scope had expanded to the entire Federation.
Soon, Chen Chu's gaze landed on a secret technique called "Illusionary Demon of the Vast Sea."
This top-tier technique, "Illusionary Demon of the Vast Sea," was obtained from a relic in the mythical world and was included in the Sky Universe Think Tank after being translated by a king-level cultivator.
Practicing the Illusionary Demon of the Vast Sea technique allows one to seal another biological life wave, simulating and completely altering their life energy.
Of course, this change only involves life energy.
Since this technique relates to the laws, the difficulty of cultivation is very high, and it does not offer much help in boosting strength, making it somewhat impractical.
However, Chen Chu's eyes brightened; it was indeed the core database of the Federation, encompassing all sorts of desired secret techniques.
With the secret technique determined, Chen Chu inquired again, "Tian Yu, search for all known mutated creatures in the oceans of Blue Star that are level three or above with special abilities."
"Exclude physical mutation abilities and elemental abilities during the search."
At Chen Chu's request, data cascaded across the screen, followed by a dense row of text and images of exotic beasts.
"There are three hundred fifty-nine types of oceanic mutated creatures that meet the criteria, including one hundred thirty-one level four, seventy-four level five, level six…"
Since the new era began decades ago, particularly with the countless oceanic mutated creatures, the variety of talent abilities that appeared was terrifying.
Under human monitoring, mutated creatures on land have almost been suppressed, while extensive studies on the ocean and the diversity of those creatures have been ongoing.
Research points scattered across the ocean, often composed of high-level and even high-level cultivators, have resulted in a vast database over decades.
As Chen Chu's finger tapped on the images of various exotic beasts, information popped up continuously, and soon the entire screen cleared, leaving only four exotic beasts.
Unicorn Silver Scale Fish, a level five exotic beast; Blue-eyed Bone Spike Squid, a seventh-level behemoth; Blue-scaled Reverse-spear Whale, a sixth-level mutated beast; and Deep Sea Black Stripe Beast.
In particular, the introduction of the Deep Sea Black Stripe Beast made Chen Chu's eyes slightly move.
This was a type of oceanic mutated creature that had evolved into a new species, with the weakest being level one and the strongest able to grow to level six, discovered in the thousand-meter deep sea of the South Sea.
These black stripe beasts, after reaching level four, can release a highly penetrating beam from the single eye on their heads, and they possess unique scales across their bodies.
Researchers found that this exotic beast's body had a strong immunity to various energies, whether in water or rolling in magma.
