Chapter 2712: Chapter 2712 - Ice Geno Core
Back in the lands of the Very High, Li Keer and Exquisite were sitting next to each other . Both of them looked bewildered and uncertain .
“Third Sister, you’re telling me that when you woke up again, the God Spirit Storm was gone?” Li Keer asked, looking at Exquisite with sheer disbelief .
Exquisite’s expression was strange . “That is what Han Sen told me . ”
“Weird . With your will, Third Sister, you shouldn’t have fallen into a coma even if your body collapsed . That simply shouldn’t be possible . How did you slip into a coma from mere exhaustion? And how did the God Spirit Storm suddenly disappear? This is so weird…” Li Keer looked as if she couldn’t believe it . After pausing, she said, “We’re fortunate that these unlikely events did occur, however . If they hadn’t, you and Han Sen would have been in real danger . ”
Li Keer wasn’t suspicious of Han Sen . She thought she could feel Han Sen’s mind, and she didn’t sense anything weird going on in his head . If he’d been plotting something devious, she should have been able to sense it .
But Exquisite had grown suspicious . She distinctly remembered Han Sen knocking her unconscious . And even more importantly, when Han Sen knocked her out, she had no longer been able to sense what Han Sen was thinking . That made Exquisite suspicious about Han Sen’s mind . She now worried that she didn’t have full access to what was really going on in his head . Otherwise, even if she had passed out, she would have known what Han Sen was doing . And she could have prevented him from knocking her out in the first place .
And the God Spirit Storm should have continued to follow Han Sen . Why had it waited until she was unconscious to retreat? The timing seemed terribly inconvenient .
“Han Sen… What did he do?” Exquisite’s mood was very conflicted, but she didn’t mention her suspicions to Li Keer .
When Han Sen found some alone time, he took out the six deified geno cores and began studying them .
Of the six deified geno cores, three of them had a lightning element . Two of them were fire, and one of them was ice .
When most creatures refined geno cores, they tended to select ones that matched their specific element . Otherwise, they would end up damaging their bodies by absorbing the power of an element that clashed with their innate power .
But the elements of Han Sen’s body were very balanced . None of his elements stood out more than any others, and he had some of everything . Therefore, he didn’t have to be too picky with which elements he absorbed . He could refine any geno core he found with few complications .
“I think I will save these three lightning element geno cores for Little Silver . I’m afraid his talents are a little lacking . If he refines these three, his evolution should be expedited, and he’ll be given the boost he needs to excel . ” Han Sen set the three lightning element geno cores aside .
There were two fire geno cores and one that was ice . As he stared at the three geno cores, Han Sen hesitated . He selected the ice geno core . After all, Jadeskin had connections to the ice element . It had grown more attuned to that power as he developed .
He picked up the ice geno core . It was only the size of an adult’s fist, but it looked like a big diamond with countless facets . It sparkled beautifully .

Inside the geno core, falling snowflakes were visible . And somehow, those snowflakes seemed to outline a white, nearly transparent body . It was like a snow lady from a legend .
“I have heard that only deified elites can refine geno cores . I wonder if I can do it right now?” Still holding his ice geno core, Han Sen activated Jadeskin and tried to absorb the power of the geno core .
The results were disappointing . Jadeskin was unable to refine the power of the geno core . The object sat in his palm, silent and unmoving .
“The easy way failed, so I guess we’ll have to do this the hard way . ” Han Sen picked up the ice geno core, popped it into his mouth, and swallowed it . Then he cast Consume . He was trying to force the ice geno core to break down .
Consume had only just started running when Han Sen felt ice-cold power explode inside his stomach . It froze his stomach, then began to surge through the rest of his body .
In the blink of an eye, Han Sen’s entire body turned to ice . His whole form was enveloped in a sheet of ice . It was like he had been wrapped up in diamonds .
Han Sen was shocked . He felt as if his lifeforce itself was starting to solidify in the intense cold . He quickly cast Jadeskin to fight against the terrifyingly cold power .

Jadeskin had high resistance against the cold . Even so, Han Sen’s cells slowed so much that he thought they had stopped working . It made Han Sen feel as if he wanted to sleep . His eyelids were as heavy, as if he had gone several days without sleeping, and it was everything he could do to keep them from closing . He could have gone to sleep right where he was standing .
In that drowsy state, Han Sen could faintly hear a woman’s voice whispering near his ear, saying, “Go to sleep… Go to sleep…”
Her soothing voice almost pushed Han Sen into unconsciousness . Even though Jadeskin was running fitfully, he couldn’t concentrate enough to keep it going .
“Oh, no! This cold power has a relaxing effect…” Han Sen thought, realizing what had happened . If he fell asleep now, there was a chance he might never wake up .
“I cannot go to sleep… I can’t sleep no matter what… Right now, Jadeskin is barely keeping my lifeforce chugging along . If I fall asleep, the cells of my body will freeze and put me into a deep sleep . It will be hard for me to wake up again,” Han Sen warned himself . He told himself repeatedly to keep Jadeskin running .
Although he knew he couldn’t sleep, he was becoming more and more exhausted . He was going to fall asleep any second .
His body was becoming weaker and weaker, and he needed to use his will to support himself . He couldn’t let himself fall asleep, no matter what .

Some indeterminate amount of time later, Han Sen felt the tiredness begin to fade . His mind became increasingly awake and aware . The cold finally receded, and his body started to feel warm again .
Han Sen knew he had passed the hardest part of the trial, but that didn’t mean he could let his vigilance falter . He kept casting Jadeskin, and he continued to absorb the foreign power .
As Jadeskin absorbed that power, Han Sen noticed that it wasn’t exhibiting any changes . The power was being absorbed, but it wasn’t melting into Jadeskin as he had expected . Rather, it seemed to be remaining an independent power within Han Sen’s body .
Han Sen opened his eyes, and his heart stuttered . There were snowflake symbols on his skin, etched all across his body, like tattoos .
Han Sen could feel the power inside him, and he knew he could control it . But he couldn’t use it quite like a normal geno art, or even incorporate its power into one of his own geno arts .
“Deified geno cores are pretty mystical . No wonder people sometimes call them Talent Skill Stones . Right now, it’s like I have an ice element deified skill . I don’t know what this ice element skill can do, but I suppose it must have something to do with cold and sleep powers . ” Han Sen knew that if he used the geno art’s power, it would require time to charge up again . It wasn’t like a geno art that he could fuel continually with his own energy .
“Who should I use it on?” Han Sen considered that question, but he couldn’t find a suitable target . So, he put it out of his mind for the moment . He realized that he hadn’t visited Horizontal Evil, which he had planned to do some time ago . Since Exquisite and Li Keer were not around, he decided to go back to that mysterious place to meet with Horizontal Evil again .
