Liang Yuan returns and reunites with Yang Mei, Dong Yan, and Song Wen, who express their relief and love. He learns about the significant developments in the Mirage Snake Space, including the renaming of Little Straw Mountain to "The City That Never Sleeps" and the discovery of a submerged medical industry park. The women reveal they have all condensed their genetic species and significantly increased their superpower levels while Liang Yuan was away.

Dong Yan inquired with an air of mystery, "Brother Liang, dare to make a guess about Sister Mei’s Genetic Species?"

Liang Yuan chuckled, "Spiritual Power, wasn’t it?"

"Whoa, how did you nail it?" Dong Yan expressed considerable surprise.

Yang Mei, too, directed an astonished gaze at Liang Yuan, "How did you manage to guess that?"

It was a well-known fact that Yang Mei’s superpower was quite extraordinary, initially manifesting with two distinct attributes.

These were none other than Spiritual Power and the Ice Attribute.

The Spiritual Power she cultivated exuded a coldness akin to ice, capable of freezing even the very spirit.

Liang Yuan responded with a laugh, "I could sense the potency of your Spiritual Power."

"Sister Mei, which Genetic Map did you awaken?"

Yang Mei, upon hearing the question, revealed, "It’s a type of mutant creature known as the 'Snow Nightmare Witch.'

"Snow Nightmare Witch?" Liang Yuan was taken aback and couldn't help but question with curiosity, "What kind of mutant beast is this?"

"I'm not entirely sure myself. Based on the genetic inheritance information, this mutant beast possesses a human-like form but isn't classified as human."

"Ah, I've also awakened a Talent Ability."

"Oh? What Talent Ability is it?"

"Nightmare Freeze. I can utilize Spiritual Power to mesmerize opponents, subsequently entering their dreams and freezing their Sea of Consciousness."

Liang Yuan couldn't conceal a look of surprise upon hearing this.

This particular ability seemed quite similar to Yang Mei’s original power, likely an enhanced iteration.

Ostensibly a mere Talent Ability, a deeper examination revealed its scope encompassing hypnosis, dream intrusion, control, and spiritual freezing.

Furthermore, the crucial detail was that Yang Mei obtained this Genetic Species and immediately gained a Talent Ability.

This strongly suggested the Genetic Map was of the double-chain variety.

Only double-chain Genetic Maps were known to manifest Talent Abilities right from the initial awakening.

Single-chain maps, conversely, would only reveal their talents after reaching the Middle Tier of Cultivation.

It appeared Yang Mei’s Genetic Map held substantial potential.

"Brother Liang, I've also awakened a Talent Ability, you know."

Song Wen chimed in from the side.

Liang Yuan promptly turned his attention to Song Wen, inquiring, "Wenwen, what is the name of your Genetic Species?"

"It’s a plant-based mutant beast called the 'Annual Ring Life Weaving Bamboo.'

"According to the genetic inheritance data, I've awakened a Talent Ability named 'Life Weaving.'

"Life Weaving?"

Liang Yuan asked, somewhat perplexed, "What exactly does it do?"

Song Wen offered a smile, explaining, "The Life Weaving talent allows me to absorb the Life Force from surrounding plants to mend injuries. It can also bolster the strength of plants I cultivate and command."

"It has the power to make plants incredibly resilient or render them as pliable as vines."

Liang Yuan’s eyes brightened, "A healing talent? And it not only heals but also possesses a degree of offensive capability."

"Can this healing be applied solely to yourself, or can you also treat others?"

Liang Yuan quickly probed, recognizing the critical importance of this clarification.

A healer capable of only mending themselves would undoubtedly be insufficient.

Song Wen responded with a laugh, "Both are possible, but there's a nuance. Healing others involves some energy loss during the conversion process, so the efficiency drops to about seventy percent compared to self-healing."

Liang Yuan’s gaze flickered, "Seventy percent is still quite impressive."

"With you among us, we won't have to fret over injuries."

Dong Yan couldn't resist asking, "Brother Liang, why is it that Sister Mei and Sister Wen have talents, while Sister Ding and I do not possess any Talent Abilities?"

Ding Yan also redirected her gaze and posed the question, "I've been pondering this as well, Liang Yuan, do you happen to know the reason for this?"

Liang Yuan nodded, replying, "It’s intrinsically linked to the Genetic Map you awakened. If your map is of the double-chain variety, a Talent Ability will manifest immediately upon awakening."

"However, for a single-chain Genetic Map, you must await its advancement to the Middle Tier before a Talent Ability emerges."

Ding Yan's expression grew serious, and she promptly inquired, "Is there an inherent difference? Does this imply that double-chain is superior to single-chain?"

Dong Yan also couldn't help but look towards Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan understood Ding Yan's competitive spirit.

After a moment of consideration, Liang Yuan gently shook his head and stated, "A direct comparison of strength might not be straightforward, but at the Initial Tier, double-chain maps could hold a combat advantage due to possessing Talent Abilities."

"However, this disparity should diminish once single-chain maps reach the Middle Tier."

"Beyond that point, my knowledge is limited."

Liang Yuan withheld the complete truth; he was well aware that double-chain Genetic Maps likely held an inherent superiority over single-chain ones.

This was evident even within the system, where the pricing for single-chain maps was consistently lower than for their double-chain counterparts.

Liang Yuan suspected that this was related to Talent Abilities.

However, given Ding Yan's competitive nature, Liang Yuan naturally wouldn't try to dissuade her.

Discreetly shifting the topic, Liang Yuan inquired, "Yanyan, what about you? What is your Genetic Map?"

Dong Yan's spirits lifted upon hearing that the differences weren't substantial. She replied, "My Genetic Species is Spirit Class, and the Genetic Map is called 'Simonachus Sea Owl.'

"Although I haven't awakened a Talent Ability yet, I've found that the range of my Mind Sensing has increased severalfold.

"My previous Mind Sensing range was roughly three to five times my Spiritual Power; now, it's boosted to nearly six to ten times.

"For instance, I possess 54 points currently, but when fully activated, my Mind Sensing can extend to 540 meters!"

"Furthermore, my Mind Sensing feels much smoother when communicating with mutant creatures, allowing me to clearly perceive their intentions and transmit my own thoughts."

Dong Yan eagerly detailed her advancements to Liang Yuan.

It was akin to a preschooler sharing a newfound accomplishment with their parents, yearning for praise.

Liang Yuan smiled upon hearing this and, rubbing her head, asked, "Doesn't this mean you can simultaneously communicate with the Black Gold Giant Ape and the Black Stone Ant Queen?"

"Yes, yes! I can now converse with multiple mutant beasts at once. Even Huang Han's Golden Python has become my friend."

"That's amazing! Perhaps in the future, you'll be the Beast Taming King of Yangshan?" Liang Yuan quipped with a laugh.

Dong Yan beamed, a joyful smile gracing her features.

"This isn't the place for discussion; let's head to the Leader's Mansion. Some developments have occurred in Yangshan, and we need to strategize on how to manage them."

Liang Yuan cast a glance at Li Qinghua, who was waiting below. With a smile, he addressed the women.

They immediately nodded in agreement. Yang Mei added, "Let's return home first and do some redecorating. We'll be staying in Yangshan with you for the time being."

Liang Yuan nodded, his smile affirming their decision.

Later, upon everyone's return to the Leader's Mansion, Li Qinghua acknowledged Zhao Kai with a greeting.

Liang Yuan spoke to Li Qinghua, stating, "The military personnel cannot remain here; we must see them off immediately."

Li Qinghua nodded without hesitation, replying, "I had intended to do so, but I hesitated to act without your presence. I was concerned about offending them, especially since we would be facing more than just the Three Great Sects."

Liang Yuan nodded. "You handled it appropriately. However, with my return, the situation must shift. It is time for us to take the initiative against both the Three Great Sects and the military."

His eyes conveyed a chilling resolve. "The Three Great Sects are determined to annihilate Yangshan. This time, we shall make them pay and demonstrate our formidable power."

A wave of excitement spread among everyone present.

Li Qinghua inquired, "Mr. Liang, do you have a plan?"

Liang Yuan gave a slight nod, his eyes gleaming. "I have a rather good idea."

"However, this plan will first require the utilization of the military's manpower."

Intrigue sparked in everyone's eyes as they turned to Liang Yuan, keenly awaiting his next words.
