Book 1: The First Advent Chapter 10 Finally Became a Bird
Most of the things that appeared in front of Luo Xia's eyes were all kinds of molluscs, coelenteric organisms, and some common shellfish creatures.
This made him wonder: "Is this the next evolutionary direction?" But how do I feel similar to my current form? ”
"No, the structure of your life is simply a link between cells, and there is absolutely no comparison with them in terms of overall coordination and division of labor. If you weren't conscious, you would never have been able to generate wisdom and improve the coordination of the entire individual in battle. “
"In addition, these organisms have the most rudimentary metabolism, which is the first step for organisms to gain energy and grow themselves. It liberates cells from their dependence on consciousness and grows autonomously, making the growth process easy and regular. ”
Luo Xia shook his strange body a little incomprehensibly, still with a little incomprehensible doubt.
"You mean, wholeness? However, once these creatures are attacked by a powerful force, it seems that they can easily die. It's not as good as I am now, as long as one cell is alive, it is not really dead. ”
"Your wisdom is beyond my expectations, and it is not easy to ask this question with your accumulated knowledge."
Xiao Xi seemed a little surprised, although its tone was still unhurried and did not fluctuate.
"Thank you! I didn't expect you to praise people, but it's really awkward to hear! I just don't think it's as safe as I am now. ”
"I'm an intelligent system, not a rigid program that doesn't know how to work. Looks like you need some comparisons. Your current form can also be considered the pre-plant form, a little bit of it is really hard to kill, but in other ways, you can feel it yourself. ”
As soon as Xiao Xi's words fell, two creatures appeared on the screen.
One is a monstrous creature like Luo Xia made up of thousands of cells, and the other is a multi-legged creature similar in size to a jellyfish.
The battle took place when the two met, and the result was completely unexpected by Luo Xia, the jellyfish was just a light touch, and the multicellular creature was broken into several pieces, completely defenseless!
Even though the tentacles of the jellyfish were stabbed bloody by the opponent's counterattack, they could not completely kill the opponent in a short period of time.
But in fact, it has been proven that multicellular organisms are completely defenseless in the face of 'powerful' real life forms in a head-on confrontation!
"I see... It can't become a truly connected and functional life, no matter how many cell nuclei are piled together, they are vulnerable, and life is not building blocks. ”
Luo Xia, who understood the difference, sighed slightly, gave up the extravagant hope for infinite life, and chose to become a new species - jellyfish.
God knows why there are jellyfish genes in the stock library, or are they raised by the unlucky landlord who is half a house missing?
Luo Xia slowly adapted to her new body and new form.
It's completely different from a simple accumulation of quantities.
Living organisms grow autonomously according to their biological nature, that is, the rules at the genetic level.
Of course, if Luo Xia has a heart, he can also change this growth within a certain range, such as adding an extra leg or something to another jellyfish.
But obviously, this is a recipe for the snake.
But there are also disadvantages to this way.
That is, it is impossible to grow by simply and rudely 'devouring' it as before.
Instead, it takes time to grind, 'eat' like a real creature, and then convert the energy it has gained into its own energy and distribute it.
I don't know how many times the efficiency is low.
(Some people will ask, then why not let Xiaoxi directly provide energy to herself.)
In fact, as mentioned earlier, there is a contradiction between this.
The energy that truly belongs to oneself is the perfect fusion between consciousness and energy, and only in this way can growth and the continuation of instinct-like abilities be guaranteed.
This requires a slow fusion project, so even if Xiao Xi has enough energy, it will not become Luo Xia's infinite energy pool.
Of course, there are also benefits, how much energy is needed in the process of growth, you can call it at any time, which is equivalent to the infinite spirit stone in the Xianxia text)
This transformation may seem like a loss, but there are benefits that cannot be replaced.
That is, as long as the general direction of growth is controlled, there is no longer a need for cell by cell to fine-tune. In this respect, more time and effort are saved.
This greatly alleviated Luo Xia's embarrassment of lack of energy to control the overall situation with the complexity of his body.
"Xiaoxi, didn't you say that the soul is the root of the external decision? I'm definitely a human, right? So why can I turn into a jellyfish again now? And not directly into a human? ”
"Jellyfish? No, it's just a form borrowing, and as your form becomes more and more complex, you can continue to consolidate and preserve the talent of instinct through the fusion of mind and cell. If you don't need the talent of instinct, when we collect enough energy, we can directly evolve into a human. ”
"I believe that with your current ability, you can already directly control the body of the 'Sparrow', the ultimate form of the stage, and go out to hunt for energy and biological templates."
Luo Xia is not stupid, he has already suffered so much, if he gives up his instinct and the two terrifying talents of the Lost Shield just to become a human for a short period of time, then he really has a hole in his brain.
As Xiaoyu operated, his consciousness began to contract and 'collapse' into a strange spherical environment.
It soon became clear to him that he had transformed into a white oval object, stepping into a new evolutionary journey.
As time passed, the white egg grew larger and larger, eventually bursting open and giving birth to a new creature, the jellyfish.
Luo Xia, who had been experiencing this incubation process throughout the whole process, was very emotional, and he had been consciously guiding most of the cell core energy to converge in the center of the jellyfish.
Then, in the process of growth, it is used to comprehend in the microbial stage, and the strength of the jellyfish's skin and tentacles is strengthened.
Since he could no longer obtain energy through rough methods, he would naturally choose to focus on strengthening his body.
Eventually, a jellyfish with a different kind of life was born, smaller than the others, but the tentacles were stronger and stronger!
It was as if there were several layers of protective film on his skin, and in the middle of his body, there was a cloud of energy cores that faintly emitted a red luster!
That's the heart of it.
The strengthening of the core substance no longer exists in the form of the strengthening of a single cell, but becomes a whole.
Through the heart, it can perfectly transmit powerful power throughout the body through internal circulation.
It's a cellular model, something that can't be done.
The whole change was very pleasant and relaxing, and the most comfortable thing for Luo Xia, he no longer had to work hard to control thousands of cells one by one, and now that he thought about it, it was a nightmare.
However, the good news is much more than that.
"Congratulations on condensing the core of strength in advance, your luck and comprehension have exceeded expectations. Due to the early condensation of the power core, the opening mode of the second stage of primitive evolution has become meaningless, and after the life energy of the rest of the creatures is overflowed by itself, it can directly choose to evolve.
"And it can skip arthropods and fish in turn, and become an 'ordinary' life form of amphibians, birds or mammals."
"Congratulations, it seems that you are really attentive, and you are lucky to have condensed the power core in advance."
Luo Xia was overjoyed.
With the real willows and flowers in another village, I originally thought that I would have to wait for the little jellyfish to grow up and adapt, but now it seems that I don't need to.
It's all because of the unexpectedly formed core of power?
The so-called power core is the most important energy supply part of a living being.
For example, for ordinary people, the heart is his energy supply part, and if the heart is not strong, the human body will have no strength. But this function is passive and cannot become the core of power.
The transcendent creature is to strengthen the energy supply part to achieve a state that can control the energy supply independently, such as Luo Xia now, through the energy in the heart, he can make himself stronger and recover from injuries quickly.
Any creature that wants to become stronger must have its own energy core.
It's just that compared to humans, they generally store energy in the heart or brain to achieve a stronger body or spirit.
Many beings vary from person to person, resulting in a variety of special physiological structures.
For example, herbaceous other-like beings like to store energy in roots or fruits, which is why they are unlucky.
Luo Xia was able to condense the power core before obtaining the cultivation method, and he already belonged to the kind of existence with extraordinary talents, not to mention, he was just a jellyfish now.
Some people will say, what's the use of this, sooner or later, it's not talented.
The problem is that Luo Xicheng can now control the energy core of his body at will!
He can completely place the energy core in different parts of his body and cultivate it.
You must know that the efficacy and talent of different parts of the energy core are different, for example, the heart as the energy core of the creatures are generally physically strong, while the brain as the energy core often has spiritual specialties.
(Of course, the so-called energy core is just a name for cells that have a certain degree of energy in a certain part, accumulate to a certain extent, and produce magical changes after reaching a qualitative change.)
It's not like there's actually a strange organ or 'magic core' or something growing out of the body. )
It is the ability to manipulate the body with instinct, and the ability to control the core of energy.
Theoretically, as long as Luo Xia continues to become familiar with the increasingly complex body, he can consolidate the talent of instinct through growth like ordinary creatures.
As long as he can keep up with the speed at which he transforms energy, he can go against the growth process of living beings, divide cells at a very fast rate, grow and evolve quickly!
Luo Xia is naturally very happy, but when it comes to concentration, or collecting addiction (this guy finds a way to fuse all the energy he can find into his body), this may be one of his few biggest strengths.
If you want to become a top game beast, concentration and collecting habits are also indispensable.
In the days that followed, with absolute body control and concentration, Luo Xia's path of evolution was exceptionally smooth.
After choosing various optional forms and adapting himself to the ever-complex 'body', he finally succeeded in reaching the ultimate form: a sparrow!
