Chapter 331 Nine Avatars, Cultivation Accessories
The original strain originated from the 374-8-FIE48 copy world.
So how were the primordial microorganisms of the main world cultivated? The answer is quite simple: the primordial microorganisms were born from their mother.
Mycelia that divide from the original strain inherently possess the ability to "reverse transcriptome".
Therefore, as long as a clump of mycelium is thrown into the new world, it can be retrieved from its original world after it adapts.
"Two cycles of law mutation and two cell collapses—if you survive them all, then you are a super strain that can adapt to the laws of two worlds at the same time!"
At this point, if the original bacteria of the original world were to reverse transcribe this super bacteria, the original bacteria would lose its reverse transcription ability.
However, they might gain the "reverse transcription" talent of a "superbug," and be given a set of genetic material that allows them to adapt to the new world.
That way, one can retain the talent of "reverse transcription" while adapting to the laws of the new world!
That's exactly what Ye Yang is doing now.
Shortly after he threw that mass of highly active yellow mycelium into the Devouring World, the mycelium all died. Fortunately, Ye Yang could grow as much mycelium as he wanted, so he threw in several tons of mycelium again.
In the end, they were all wiped out.
"It seems that the Void Fungus created by the Void Cult is quite remarkable; its adaptability alone far surpasses that of mine."
Ye Yang knew that the more species' genes a super-adaptive hyphae reverse-transcribed, the stronger its own adaptability would be.
The species in the myriad worlds are incredibly diverse. If one possesses their genes, it means that one simultaneously possesses the experience of countless lives adapting to countless different environments over countless years.
The information engraved deep in the genes of life that seems like "shit code" is actually forgotten evolutionary experience.
The original strains can retrieve them!
Even if it arrives in a completely new world where the underlying laws do not support it, causing the cell to collapse, it is very likely that it will find a way out on its own.
As the fungus *Epipremnum aureum* continues to multiply, it also generates more and more highly active hyphae that divide into additional cells.
Tens or hundreds of tons were sent to devour the world.
If the probability isn't high enough, make up for it with quantity; you're bound to win a big prize eventually.
After Ye Yang released nearly a thousand tons of mycelium, a miracle, and inevitably it, finally occurred.
Amidst the vast expanse of decaying and dissolving mycelium, a single golden thread stands out conspicuously!
It bravely crawled back from the brink of cell collapse, and among the infinite possibilities of mutation, it was incredibly lucky to have the one that allowed it to survive.
Thus, it draws nourishment from the corpses of its kind. Countless broken and dissolved mycelia become its fertile ground for growth.
"We finally succeeded."
Ye Yang pinched the ever-growing, elongating golden thread. The thread had absorbed a large amount of nutrients, and when it was disturbed by the outside world, it reacted and immediately broke into many pieces, scattering and escaping.
Those tiny golden threads fell back into the decaying mycelium, quickly absorbing more nutrients, multiplying wildly, and forming a large golden net!
"What's the use of splitting the body? The newborn soul is still one." Ye Yang shook his head, and with lightning speed, he captured all the golden mycelium and put it into his world ring.
These mycelia, which are outside his control, even if they are no longer the original species, must never be allowed to escape into the outside world.
After collecting the golden mycelium into a separate world, Ye Yang began to cultivate it within it.
Then tear it off piece by piece and extract it back to the main world.
Sizzle~~
However, when the first clump of golden mycelium was extracted and appeared in front of Ye Yang's true form on the observation deck, it immediately underwent a law-altering change. Suddenly, it made a crackling sound as if it had been put into a frying pan, and then quickly turned black and withered.
"After adapting to the laws of devouring the world, have your previous traits actually degenerated?" Ye Yang was somewhat disappointed, but not surprised.
Because the differentiated super-adaptive bacterial communities, although they are highly resilient, adapt quickly, and have a high mutation rate, their "life thickness" is correspondingly thinner.
It's like traveling light, which is more flexible, but you can't carry much and you have to give up a lot of things.
However, just as Ye Yang was about to bring back some more golden mycelium to adapt, wisps of golden threads emerged from the charcoal-like substance.
"Haha, so he wasn't completely dead after all."
Ye Yang raised an eyebrow, immediately captured it, and threw it onto the core primordial fungus of his third clone, where it was instantly refined.
"Reverse transcription—complete!"
Ye Yang was overjoyed. His consciousness sank into his third clone, and he worked hard to split, replicate, and reverse transcribe the original strain of golden mycelial life matter.
Gradually, the original fungal strain of Ye Yang's third clone transformed into a mixture of gold and white, which now contained two different types of fungal strains.
One type is the original strain transplanted from the 374-8-FIE48 dungeon world, adapted to the world of the Immortal Alliance Master, and can be called strain X.
Another type is based on strain X, which is adapted to the underlying laws of the phagocytic world and can be called strain T.
Both of these are primordial strains, core mycelia, and have the greatest life thickness, from which all other fungal communities can be derived!
"Third clone————"
Once Ye Yang felt that there were enough T-strain bacteria, he separated them and put them into the Devouring World.
This time, these bacteria will be used as materials for developing clones!
Devouring the world, the core of the moon, in a hidden, empty chamber.
Buzzing~~
The hazy light appeared and disappeared, and one of Ye Yang's soul servants teleported over from the Divine Kingdom, bringing a tuft of sealed golden fluff: "Master, I've brought the item."
"We've finally waited for this moment—" Ye Yang's second Golden Horn clone, who was entrenched here, was somewhat excited.
His understanding of the fundamental laws of fire had long since reached its final stage, and he could attempt to break through to become an immortal god at any time.
They're just waiting for the third clone!
Although Ye Yang knew that his second primordial core was probably more heaven-defying and sturdy than Luo Feng's Golden Horned Beast primordial core because it had fused with the Primal Void Crystal, and because it had been bestowed by the original will of the universe at the perfect life gene level, and because it often comprehended the laws of spacetime fusion and the meaning of the Ouroboros, it was also influenced by a special aura.
But he also felt that he had advantages that Luo Feng did not have.
Perhaps this primordial constraint doesn't necessarily require the creation of an ultimate technique to break!
Of course, if all else fails, then he'll create the ultimate technique! Ye Yang was confident in that.
The first and second clones successively introduced the T-strain into their internal worlds, beginning to analyze life matter.
"The original strain of bacteria has very weak attributes in all aspects, and its only talent is a growth-type talent, so its life multiplier should not be very high."
Despite being confident and having successfully nurtured the Void Fungus, Ye Yang was still somewhat apprehensive and nervous.
Within the body, the T bacteria have been successfully and completely eliminated, all life matter has been analyzed, and the process of incubation has begun.
"Success." With the last trace of suspense gone, Ye Yang breathed a sigh of relief.
Next, we just need to wait for the flowers to bloom.
"The growth rate of the Void Fungus is terrifying. Give it one unit of energy, and it can grow 100 hungry mouths that can eat me out of house and home in no time."
"The original strains are better; given one unit of energy, they will only produce three or four mouths to eat."
Ye Yang sighed.
The process of creating a clone was progressing steadily, so he decided not to waste any more time waiting.
Instead, it uses the [Gate of All Heavens] to generate a third instance avatar that devours the world.
"The main world splits into three, and the dungeon world splits into nine. Any life form with a divine soul can cultivate the Trinity to create three great avatars, each possessing a different form."
After the third clone was generated, Ye Yang immediately equipped it with a mimicry brain to activate its intelligence.
Only then did Ye Yang learn about the innate secret techniques possessed by the Primal Bacteria in the Devouring World version.
"As expected, the three major talents have all been fixed as innate secret techniques in the Devouring World. Mutation" Latent"
"Reverse transcription" didn't change much.
Ye Yang immediately began to circulate the "Trinity" divine power, guiding the power of the universe's operating rules to descend and transform it into a new clone-type talent.
Thus, the third incarnation also gained the ability to conceive two additional bodies.
Nine clones become possible!
Human, Golden Horn, and Fungus: three forms, each with three clones.
It would take time for the nine clones to fully develop, so Ye Yang began to explore how to use the various abilities of the fungal clones.
First is "mutation". The method of using this ability is self-explanatory: it's like a lottery.
However, by changing the environment and controlling the logistical energy supply of the mycelium, it is possible to artificially guide the mycelium to undergo directional mutation and evolution.
Mycelia that are not originally fire-resistant will continue to mutate after being burned for a few minutes, and the mycelia that do not die will eventually become fire-resistant.
The soft mycelium is continuously crushed and ground, undergoing crazy mutations, until what cannot be ground becomes incredibly hard.
Mycelia that are inefficient in energy utilization and waste energy should be starved for a few days. Those that don't starve to death are naturally the sensible mycelia that don't waste energy.
This is the principle of "survival of the fittest" in the microbial race.
The two great talents of "reverse transcription" and "recession" allow for a wide variety of creative possibilities.
By using recessive expression, Ye Yang can control whether a bacterial colony expresses a certain gene.
For example, if a bacterial community contains pigment genes for green, red, and blue simultaneously, then by controlling different expression ratios, it's even possible to create a display screen using the mycelium.
Furthermore, "reverse transcription" can steal and replicate genes from other organisms!
Ye Yang attempted to reverse transcribe ordinary human genes, record them completely, and then use recessive transcription to suppress all fungal genes, expressing only human genes.
The result was that he actually differentiated into human pluripotent cells!
In theory, it is possible to cultivate and give birth to a human being!
"When we tested that Void Fungus, it was able to spawn Zerg warriors, which must have been achieved using this method."
"And the Void Fungus's terrifying ability to corrode and hide might also be related to this—it can disguise itself as another person's body cells within their body!"
"No, it's not a disguise, it's that person's body cells!"
Ye Yang was incredibly excited, as if he had opened the door to a new world.
He began to secretly capture various demons for experiments.
Who made the demon race, which devours the world, possess such remarkable intelligence, and so numerous and diverse in both numbers?
First, starting with embryonic cells, a tiger-like demon race is conceived.
"No soul?" Ye Yang seemed to have transformed into a demon, sensing the sensations transmitted through his nerves, feeling and thinking in the way of a demon.
"Not good!" Flames suddenly surged from the body of the mimicking demon race, frantically refining it.
Ye Yang, who was mimicking a demon, twisted and was refined back into human form by the true meaning.
"No, it won't work. Since no new soul was born and there was a backlash of true meaning, it means that I did not give birth to a completely new life, but only created a demon body for myself."
Ye Yang couldn't help but shake his head.
That won't do. The purpose of mimicry is to create a group of subordinates who can obey your commands and act independently.
Whether it's production, fighting, or handling miscellaneous tasks.
However, if a new soul or consciousness cannot be conceived and Ye Yang still needs to manipulate it personally, then it is meaningless.
"So, did the Void Fungus directly control the Zerg warriors it spawned, or did it truly give birth to entirely new souls or consciousnesses?"
Ye Yang couldn't help but recall, but he hadn't observed carefully at the time.
After all, the life form of the Zerg warriors is also very special. To be precise, they are part of the Zerg Queen, and their souls have a subordinate relationship. Their soul fluctuations are very similar to those of the Queen.
At that time, the Void Fungus could be said to be the "mother queen" of those Zerg warriors that were conceived. Even if their soul fluctuations were different, they were very similar and difficult to identify without careful examination.
"I'll erode and replace the body cells of normal, independent life, and share the body with their souls, is that alright?"
Ye Yang had another idea and began to try it out.
This time, however, it went very smoothly. Ye Yang captured a domain lord-level wolf demon and invaded its body.
The soul of a Domain Lord-level demon is hidden in its life core. As long as the life core is intact, even if the head is shattered, it will not lose consciousness or die.
In other words, for a domain lord, the brain is no longer the sole carrier of thought.
So what would happen if its brain were completely represented by Ye Yang's mimicry cells?
The mimicry hyphae begin by invading the spinal cord, then extend upwards to enter the brain.
Then, for each neuron of the demon race that it devours, it uses a new fungal cell to mimic an identical neuron and connects it, with all synaptic connections being the same.
Like the Ship of Theseus, which was constantly damaged and repaired, it was gradually replaced.
1%——2%3%——
Gradually, when the replacement rate of a certain brain region reached 40%, Ye Yang's soul received a feeling that was both a hallucination and a real body.
My right forepaw is a little itchy.
Ye Yang couldn't help but scratch, only to realize that it wasn't the original Golden Horned Beast's clone that was itchy.
Instead, it was the domain lord-level demon that was itching.
"Synchronous sensing?"
Ye Yang watched even more intently.
As more brain regions were replaced by more than 40%, various sensations appeared in the demon's body, and even some of its own thoughts leaked into Ye Yang's soul.
Even—Ye Yang felt that his perception of the fundamental laws of wind had become clearer.
"Wait a minute—isn't that a Wind-Eating Demon Wolf?"
"It seems that this demon bloodline is very skilled in the laws of wind."
Ye Yang's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.
"I can actually use this to enhance my perception of the fluctuations in the fundamental laws of the universe?"
"Did I turn it into my cultivation accessory?"
"Although this amount is small—it has the potential to add up!"
