After a brief rest, Qi Shu went out to search for the evolutionary creatures nearby. However, it was as if someone had cleared up the area. He found nothing despite searching for a long time.

Qi Shu suddenly recalled that there was a rather remote park on the opposite side of the river. There should be many evolutionary creatures there.

Qi Shu quickly ran away. Time was precious. If he was late, he might not even be able to get a single piece of the source of life.

Qi Shu soon arrived at the river. Just as he was about to go over, he sensed a dangerous presence hidden in the river. It was as if there were something watching him.

Qi Shu was very familiar with the river in front of him. He had come here to play before.

The river was not very deep. It was only about one meter deep and about twenty meters wide. Many children used to swim in it. However, after the revival of magical energy, the fish in the river had become extremely fierce. Therefore, no one dared to swim.

The place that Qi Shu headed to was one of the two small bridges on the river. This small bridge did not have any railings. It comprised of only a few bridge piers and a large slab of stone.

It was still in the middle of the night right now. Even with the streetlights on both sides of the river, he still could not see the bottom of the river. It was pitch black everywhere. He could not see the danger that was hidden inside either.

Qi Shu hesitated for a moment by the river. He decided not to waste any more time bothering about the creature in the water. He quickly ran to the other side and went to the park to harvest for the source of life. That was the most important thing.

Qi Shu immediately ran towards the opposite side. However, he had a bad feeling immediately when he passed by the middle of the bridge. He squatted down slightly at once to maintain his stability.

The next moment, he saw the water beside him splash violently. A black shadow rushed out from the water. He was its target.

“Bang!”

齐树立刻就感受到一股巨大的撞击力,犹如一个小汽车撞过来的力道,幸好早已做好了准备,不然就不是撞退两步,而是直接落入水中,在水中可就是这家伙的天下了.

Qi Shu immediately felt a huge impact. It felt like a small car had crashed into him. Fortunately, he was prepared. Otherwise, he would have fallen into the river instead of being knocked two steps back. This creature would have a complete advantage over him in the water.

He looked at the monster before him. It was a huge black fish. The scales on its body were looked extremely hard. It had a mouthful of sharp teeth. If he got bitten by it, he would definitely lose half a kilogram of his flesh.

However, there were bullet holes all over this guy’s body. It seemed like the loud gunshots in the city had been caused by this guy. This black fish really knew how to pick on people. It first provoked the army, then tried to go against him. This was truly an animal that did not fear death!

Qi Shu let out a cold snort. He held the fish’s head with both hands and lifted him high into the air. He then slammed it onto the bridge, which caused it to tremble violently.

Qi Shu looked at the black fish, who was still struggling on the verge of death. Then, he pressed it down with his left hand and raised his right hand to smash its skull. Muffled sounds rang out as Qi Shu landed a few fierce punches on its skull.

After a few punches from Qi Shu, the black fish’s life came to a perfect end. This source of life was definitely big enough. It was much bigger than the pieces that he had obtained from the previous two evolutionary beasts.

As Qi Shu absorbed the source of life, he noticed that his heart rate had slowed down. It was definitely not because he had become weak. It meant that he had become even stronger instead. He had successfully arrived at Martial Artist Level 4 right away!

Qi Shu then prepared to kick the black fish’s corpse into the river. However, he broke its body with a single kick. He had managed to kill it with just a few punches earlier, and he had now exploded its body with a single kick. He was simply being way too violent.

Qi Shu had newly turned into a martial artist of level 4, so he was yet to control his strength perfectly. Such a situation had happened because he had used too much of his strength.

Qi Shu grabbed the two pieces of the black fish’s body and threw them into the river. After that, he headed towards the park on the other side of the river.

The more pieces of the source of life that he obtained, the better that it would be. It had only been such a short period of time, but he had already been directly upgraded to a martial artist at level 4. His power had increased way too quickly. He had to quickly collect more pieces.

…

When Qi Shu arrived at the park, he suddenly heard a commotion going on there. it was not a small commotion. It seemed like someone had gotten there first. He hesitated for a moment before deciding to go over to see who it was.

When he reached one of the trees in the park, he immediately recognized a familiar figure. It was his classmate, Wang Xingchen.

Wang Xingchen was fighting against a small monkey. He did not know whose pet it was, but it had a colorful collar around its neck. Although this monkey was relatively small, its speed could not be underestimated.

The only thing that Qi Shu found strange was the fact that Wang Xingchen was currently fighting with the monkey barehanded. However, he was still able to send the monkey flying away when he punched out without even touching it. It was really puzzling.

He remembered that he had talked about this before. Creatures affected by the revival of magical energy mostly took two paths. Firstly, there was the path of evolution, which was the most common path.

That was Qi Shu’s current situation. He had chosen the path of the Ancient Martial Arts Physical Training Techniques. This was the more common path. As long as one had some aptitude, they could enter it. However, if one wanted to go far, it would depend on one’s willpower and other special opportunities.

The other path was the mutant pathway. This was an extremely special path that was rarely seen even in the world. Mutants were much stronger than those who had taken the evolution path because undergoing mutation was equivalent to the awakening of one’s own magical powers.

The scar-faced man was a mutant, and he was very powerful.

Wang Xingchen’s situation showed that he was probably a type of mutant right now. However, it was hard for others to defend themselves against his invisible attack. Even the monkey could not touch him.

Qi Shu’s horizons were broadened after he saw his abilities. Once again, he got a new understanding of what it meant to be a special person like a mutant. It seemed like not all mutants were like the scar-faced guy from just now. There were high-level and low-level mutants.

Fire control was probably a low-level ability, but this ability seemed to be of a much higher level than that of fire control. The attacking methods of this ability were extremely strange.

Wang Xingchen waved his hand and sent the monkey flying. Then, he opened his hand and clenched it in the air. The monkey seemed to be grabbed by an invisible hand as it floated in mid-air.

Wang Xingchen then pinched hard, and the evolutionary monkey immediately died. Its source of life slowly floated over and entered his body.

Right then, Qi Shu had prepared to leave. Wang Xingchen’s power was extremely strong and strange. There was no need to go out and meet him now. Both of them needed a large amount of source of life to increase their strengths now. It would be better for them to fight separately.

Qi Shu then gave up on this park area and headed toward somewhere else.
