Chapter 1112 - 457: Refining the Ice Attribute Genetic Species
Chapter 1112: Chapter 457: Refining the Ice Attribute Genetic Species
In the following days, Liang Yuan continued experimenting with the results of causality transfer.
Through repeated experiments, he discovered that the control distance of the causality line is not limited by the range of spiritual power.
Instead, the efficiency of causality transfer is closely related to spiritual power.
With his current spiritual power of 64.5, he can cover a range of about 195 meters.
It’s worth mentioning that when the spiritual attribute is at 50 points, every 1 point increases the range by one meter.
Once surpassing 50 points, every additional point in spiritual attribute directly increased the range by 10 meters!
This is why Liang Yuan’s current spiritual power coverage range reaches as far as 195 meters.
Liang Yuan was initially worried that beyond this range, the causality line would be beyond his control.
However, experiments showed that once entwined, the causality line won’t be affected by the distance.
Yet, the efficiency of causality transfer is greatly influenced by the strength of spiritual power.
Fortunately, this machine doesn’t require strong attack power; even with low efficiency, it is sufficient for killing fish and chickens.
This greatly relieved Liang Yuan.
Half a month swiftly passed by, and the weather became increasingly cold.
The rain in the sky also gradually turned icy.
Over in Yangshan, more and more people liked to go to the Sunshine District.
Many would buy mutant sunflowers to plant at home, using them to ward off the cold, keep warm, and remove humidity.
During this half month, the water level rose again, and Floating Bridge Port also increased significantly.
The fortress originally built halfway up the mountain nearby even seemed to be touched by the water level.
This made Liang Yuan feel somewhat heavy-hearted.
If the heavy rain doesn’t stop and continues, more and more land in Yangshan is likely to be submerged.
On this day, Liang Yuan arrived at the R&D department and finally received good news.
"Mr. Liang, the genetic furnace research was successful, and we’ve successfully extracted an ice attribute genetic species!"
As soon as he entered, Li Hanzhong shouted excitedly.
Liang Yuan immediately showed a look of surprise and promptly said, "Take me to see it!"
"This way."
Li Hanzhong hurriedly led Liang Yuan to the R&D department, where they quickly saw a not-too-large sophisticated device.
The device was about half the height of a person, and it looked somewhat like a seismograph.
The surroundings were supported by columnar structures, with a spherical body in the middle.
The sphere and the columnar structure were linked by some kind of elastic cord.
The sphere was transparent, allowing the inside to be seen.
A large number of runes were engraved on the columnar structures and the metal base.
Liang Yuan glanced at it and immediately recognized that these runes were of a unified type, forming a sort of talisman array.
At this moment, inside the sphere, a fingernail-sized ice-blue crystal was suspended.
The crystal emitted waves of cold air, enveloping the surroundings.
Below the sphere, there were still some layered dark red blood clots.
Liang Yuan looked at the ice crystal and said, "Is this the genetic species?"
"Yes, according to our plan, after high-frequency vibration, the genes in the blood appeared layered, and the ice attribute gene content, which was too much, quickly condensed."
"After consuming about one cubic of blood ice, this ice attribute genetic species was condensed."
Li Hanzhong was filled with excitement, and the people beside him, Ren Jie and Fu Qibo, also had smiling faces, looking quite excited.
Every time a major project is conquered is the most exciting moment for everyone in the R&D department.
Liang Yuan immediately said, "Take it out and let me see."
Li Hanzhong nodded immediately, looking at Ren Jie.
Ren Jie stepped forward, quickly removed the sphere, then applied high heat from his hand, swiftly melting the sphere.
Suddenly, the smell of roasting protein filled the air.
Liang Yuan was startled and asked, "What is this thing?"
Li Hanzhong laughed, "It’s the eyeball of a mutant fish."
"We found that this mutant fish’s eyeball is not only transparent but also very elastic and resistant to corrosion, so we decided to use it as a container for the essence blood."
"But unfortunately, this mutant eyeball can’t be reused."
"We can inject the essence blood of exotic beasts in liquid form, and supplement with sea cucumber mucus."
"But once a solid genetic species appears, it can’t be extracted unless ripped open."
Liang Yuan frowned and asked, "Is it easy to obtain this mutant eyeball?"
"It’s manageable; it’s from the Grayfin Eyebar Emperor’s eye. They are known for big eyes, and their eyes possess hallucinatory superpower, being masters of underwater illusion."
"We capture a dozen every month in Yangshan, so it’s not too difficult to find."
Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan nodded slightly and said, "Find a way to catch some and do artificial cultivation."
Li Hanzhong slapped his head and said, "Right, right, I’ll go speak to the Breeding Department about it in a while."
Ren Jie asked, "Do we need to cultivate them?"
Liang Yuan nodded, saying solemnly, "The weather is getting colder; I fear winter is coming soon."
"When the floodwaters freeze, catching fish will be difficult."
Li Hanzhong, Ren Jie, and the others were instantly shocked.
"Will the floodwaters freeze?"
"If it freezes, doesn’t that mean we can leave Yangshan?"
"Can I go back to find my family?"
Everyone’s spirits soared, showing joy rather than worry about the possibility of ice being formed in winter.
Liang Yuan sighed and said, "Certainly, but if we can go out, others can come in too."
"Once the flood is frozen, Yangshan is likely to see more and more survivors seeking help."
"Moreover, with the arrival of winter, many plants can no longer be grown, and our food reserves need to catch up."
"And as the weather turns cold, if the heavy rains don’t stop, they will turn into snow or even hail."
"Natural disasters will only intensify."
Liang Yuan’s analysis immediately plunged everyone’s previously excited mood into silence.
Seeing this, Liang Yuan suddenly smiled and said, "Alright, no need to be so downcast. Our foundation in Yangshan is already established, and there are naturally ways to deal with these problems."
"Moreover, the arrival of winter has its benefits; at least food can be better preserved."
"With our current food reserves in Yangshan, it’s not a big issue."
"Old Ren, show me the genetic species."
Ren Jie snapped back to reality and quickly handed the genetic species to Liang Yuan.
Liang Yuan carefully examined the genetic species and found that this genetic species seemed to be fine.
Its low-temperature characteristic was obvious, as even holding it in hand, one could feel the coldness.
Liang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I want to experiment with this genetic species to see if it can really be consumed."
"Continue to mass-produce the genetic species over here. If you run out of materials, take more from me."
"Yes, Mr. Liang."
Everyone quickly nodded.
Currently, there aren’t many Ice Attribute Superpower Users in Yangshan. Zhao Kai and Yang Mei are considered veterans, and among the newcomers, some have started to awaken too.
Among them are some with the Ice Attribute, but their main attribute hasn’t reached the level of 50 points yet.
Of course, if we disregard the consequences, using methods like the Three Great Sects, allowing superpower users with 45 points to start consuming Ice Attribute Genetic Species, could naturally create a group of ’hybrid’ genetic species experts.
But doing so would inevitably earn a bad reputation.
Liang Yuan didn’t want to do that; it hasn’t come to that point yet.
"Once we gather a certain number of Ice Attribute Genetic Species, we can make a trip to Guangfu to see if we can exchange for genetic species of other attributes."
Liang Yuan quickly returned home and then used Earth Escape to enter a secret chamber within the mountain.
Considering the privacy of cultivation, he re-carved a space within the Yangshan mountain body specifically for his own cultivation.
To prevent other Earth Attribute Superpower Users from discovering it, he specially arranged a Rune Array here and drew Illusion Runes on the walls to conceal the area.
Entering the cave, Liang Yuan took out the Ice Attribute Genetic Species, but he didn’t directly consume it; instead, he activated the skill [Spiritual Ability Assessment].
"Material analysis... Genome crystal..."
"Energy attribute... Ice Attribute..."
"Very high concentration..."
Liang Yuan quickly concluded that this was indeed a consumable Ice Attribute Genetic Species!
"I have now condensed the Hundred-Change Demon Ape Gene Map and have made certain progress."
"Now, I can use this Ice Attribute Genetic Species to try and see if I can transform the genetic species!"
The strongest aspect of the Hundred-Change Demon Ape Gene is its adaptability to change.
Liang Yuan wanted to see if his Hundred-Change Gene could simulate this Ice Attribute Gene.
And from it, deduce an Ice Attribute Genetic Map.
Thinking of this, he didn’t hesitate and directly swallowed the genetic species.
As the genetic species entered his body, a massive amount of Ice Attribute Genes rapidly began to merge into Liang Yuan’s body.
Without hesitation, Liang Yuan activated his Hundred-Change Gene.
Suddenly, Liang Yuan’s body trembled, and a large amount of icy mist appeared all over his body.
Immediately, his Hundred-Change Gene quickly began to assimilate and absorb these Ice Attribute Genes.
His Hundred-Change Gene, like a chameleon, swiftly changed its form, transforming towards the direction of the Ice Attribute Genes.
Liang Yuan was entirely enveloped in ice mist, from within which came the sound of cracking ice blocks from time to time.
It was unclear how long had passed when suddenly the ice mist roiled, and large amounts of mist rapidly contracted.
In the blink of an eye, all the mist rushed into Liang Yuan’s body.
At this moment, Liang Yuan’s appearance had greatly changed.
His hair had turned ice blue, his skin became much paler, and he radiated a strong chill.
Liang Yuan opened his eyes, and within his pupils, there faintly appeared symbols like ice flower runes.
"Ice Bear?"
Liang Yuan was somewhat surprised. From this Ice Attribute Genetic Species, he received a genetic inheritance named Ice Bear.
He even obtained the Genetic Map of the Ice Bear.
"Could it be that my Strength Attribute is too high, causing me to comprehend a melee type of Genetic Map?"
Liang Yuan found it a bit remarkable. He could feel that now his body’s genes had truly transformed into Ice Attribute Genes.
Stretching out his hand, cold energy gathered in his hand.
The next moment, an ice crystal chain formed and spun around him, appearing beside him.
With the Ice Crystal Chain appearing, Liang Yuan felt the current chain and found that now, when he summoned the Ice Crystal Chain, not only was it faster than before, but its attack power also seemed stronger.
He shook the chain!
Clatter!
The Ice Crystal Chain instantly shot out explosively!
Boom!
With a loud bang, the stone wall ahead exploded, and frost spread out.
Liang Yuan raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Indeed, the overall power has improved."
"However, even though I can change to the Ice Attribute, it seems that I still need to learn and master skills myself."
"In this state, it only helped enhance the Ice Attribute Skills’ power."
"I wonder, after further deduction of my Hundred-Change Demon Ape Gene Map, if I can deduce the Ice Bear’s Genetic Map as well."
