Chapter 154: Source

After hearing the words from Qi Zhi's mouth, Candle Dragon's expression became obviously complicated, and he saw that he was no longer as calm as he was just now, but asked Qi Zhi again with interest.

"Little girl, then tell me what is the matter with this so-called genetic mutation?"

"Candle Dragon senior, the theory of genes is the most advanced scientific issue of this era, and I only have a little understanding, and I definitely can't be called proficient in it, but since the seniors are interested in this matter, the juniors will dare to tell the seniors a thing or two."

Faced with the inquiry from the candle dragon's mouth, Qi Zhi changed her childlike appearance on weekdays, only to see that her attitude was not arrogant or impatient, and her tone did not change at all to answer to the candle dragon.

"Predecessors, today's science believes that when living organisms are affected by the environment or genetics, the genome of offspring will undergo harmful defects or mutations, and the vast majority of them will lead to diseases in living organisms, and such mutations are very likely to be inherited in specific environments."

"However, this is not absolute, in some cases, life will mutate again on the basis of heredity, and this mutation may not necessarily be harmful to itself, but may also be beneficial to itself.

"Sure enough, the human race is the real protagonist of this heaven and earth, even if the spiritual energy of the end of the Dharma era you are in is already thin, and it is difficult for human beings to embark on the path of cultivation, but the science you mentioned in your mouth is about to touch the true meaning of life."

Hearing this, the candle dragon's expression changed again, and his tone was full of emotion, as if he had a great interest in the word science.

"Although I don't know exactly what science you call it, this science can delve into the mystery of the origin of human beings without any external force, which is actually tantamount to touching the realm of God."

Hearing the meaningless words in the mouth of the candle dragon, everyone couldn't help but be at a loss.

And at this moment, Qi Zhi suddenly asked.

"Senior, what do you mean by asking?"

After all, Qi Zhi had just answered Candle Dragon's question, and she didn't have such a deep fear of Candle Dragon, so when we were still at a loss, she had the courage to ask everyone's common doubts.

"Senior, you were created in the age of mythology, and this science is indeed a discipline that has only developed in modern times, no matter from which angle you think, you and science are incompatible, and it is no exaggeration to say that your existence in this world is itself a problem that science can never explain."

"But you seem to be unusually interested in the theory of genes in this science, although it has been a thousand years apart, but you have asked us again and again about this, could it be that thousands of years ago, the ancestors had been exposed to something similar to genes?"

For some reason, after hearing the doubts in Qi Zhi's mouth, the candle dragon inexplicably fell into memories, and it seemed that Qi Zhi's question made him feel endless nostalgia.

Seeing the appearance of the candle dragon, we naturally did not interject without authorization, but held our breath one by one, quietly waiting for him to answer us.

"Well, I won't embarrass you, how can you figure it out a thousand years ago, in fact, you guessed right, although there was no so-called gene theory at that time, but if you talk about the essence, in fact, the ancestors at that time have indeed mastered the essence."

Thankfully, the candle dragon didn't keep us waiting long, and he quickly recovered his composure from his memories and turned his back to the crowd and asked another question we had never thought about.

"You already know that Nuwa Niangniang created the earliest Taigu Gu Race, and it is with the emergence of the Taigu Ancient Race that there are countless possibilities in the land of Shenzhou."

"But have you ever thought that in ancient times, there were many powerful people, and there were many people who moved mountains and seas, and since there are so many beings who have cultivated to the heavens, why is it Nuwa Niangniang who finally created the human race?"

At first glance, the question from the candle dragon's mouth seems illogical.

But if you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to find that this is indeed a question worth thinking about.

He was right, at that time, Shenzhou was not like now, at that time, there was abundant spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and cultivation exercises abounded, and the power of cultivation to reach the heavens and the fierce beasts were too numerous to mention.

But despite this, in that era, in the end, only Nuwa Niangniang had the feat of creating living beings.

Needless to say, all of us have heard the story of Nuwa mending the sky and making people out of the soil when we were young, but I am afraid that no one has ever been able to give a satisfactory answer to why Nuwa Niangniang has such an ability.

And at this moment, Chun Ting, who had not spoken for a long time, finally stopped being silent, only to see him look at the candle dragon and say a brief tentative word.

"Senior, Nuwa Niangniang has the power of creation, since she has such power, it doesn't seem to be difficult to create a species, right?"

"That's right, Nuwa Niangniang does have the power of creation, and finally uses this power to create the human race, but you must know that all the power between heaven and earth has its source, whether it is the sun, moon and stars, earth, water, fire, wind, or mountains, rivers, birds and beasts, the power is by no means rootless water, but a long-term stream of living water that can find the source."

Hearing Chunting's brief words, the candle dragon nodded slightly, but soon he shook his head again and replied meaningfully.

"But if you think about it carefully, you will find that the sun, moon, stars, earth, water, fire, wind, etc., which I mentioned earlier, are not the essence of the power of creation, and there seems to be no existence in this world that can be called the source of the power of creation."

"Since I have just said that power is by no means rootless water, then you might as well guess where the creative power that Nuwa Niangniang has come from?"

Hearing this, everyone suddenly listened to the book of heaven, and they didn't pay attention to the meaning of his words for a long time.

The candle dragon actually made us, the people of later generations, speculate about where the power of Nuwa Niangniang, who created the human race in the first place, came from?

This is a ridiculous thing.

Don't you see, the time in Shenzhou is more than a thousand years, but in addition to Nuwa Niangniang, how can there ever be a second great existence that can create living beings?

Even if we don't talk about Nuwa Niangniang's identity as the ancestor of the human race, or the time when she is more than a thousand years away from us, the creative power that no one has ever mastered in the past thousand years is a realm that we cannot reach in any way.

If this is the case, how can we possibly find a way to explore the source of the power of creation that Nuwa Niangniang wields?
