Chapter 013: The so-called demon

"There are some big secrets hidden in human genes, maybe about immortality, maybe about evolution, and these secrets are so hidden that until genes were discovered, human beings only regarded mutation as a blessing from heaven or the embodiment of sin. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"But the genes of human beings are stable, at least under normal circumstances, he is stable, but there are some people, their bodies have mutated, produced limbs or organs that humans should not have, and have some abilities that surpass ordinary people, or even surpass some qi refiners, these people have caused the surprise and panic of ordinary people and qi refiners, so they don't regard these people as people, but call them demons. ”

"Most of the power of demons is extraordinary, which has aroused the interest of the qi refiners, some demons have begun to cultivate and become qi refiners, and there are also qi refiners who study demons and transform themselves into demons, which is the prototype of the Wood Walk Technique, and when the effect of true qi on the demon is discovered and utilized, the Wood Walk Path Technique will take shape. It was only after the discovery of genes, especially ancient genes, that the Wood Walk was truly formed. ”

"It sounds like a demon. Xu Changsheng touched his chin and said.

Lan Zijun glared at Xu Changsheng: "Don't think it's a good thing to become a demon. Human genes are stable, but they are stable in dynamic equilibrium, and demons are produced because of the activation of ancient genes, and the changes in genes cause human genes to be no longer stable, which will indeed produce powerful demons, but it will also produce failed mutations, do you know what the results of the failure of the Wood Walking Dao Technique will be?"

"Uh...... Completely become non-human?" Xu Changsheng asked tentatively.

"Hmph, if you completely become non-human from the outside to the inside, that's easy to say. Lan Zijun put his hands behind his back, "The failure of the Wood Dao Technique is most likely to lead to the permanent retention of the non-human limbs or organs produced, which is not necessarily a good thing, for example, a turtle shell grows on a person's back, or is unrecognizable, or there is an extra organ in the body, causing the originally good internal organs to be squeezed, and the body's blood circulation collapses and the like." And what's even more terrifying is that this kind of mutation is generated at the genetic level, which is very likely to be passed on to future generations, even if the mutation is benign, it can even improve the strength, resulting in the first generation is a powerful Qi Refiner, no one dares to say anything about his mutation, but what about the second generation, what about the third generation? ”

Lan Zijun sneered: "Although demons may have stronger strength, their bodies that are different from ordinary people also make them incompatible with ordinary humans, so they are called demons." ”

"And the result of the failure of the other casting of the Wood Walking Dao Technique is actually no different from the two Dao Techniques of Golden Fire, the genes of the Qi Refiner will begin to collapse, and then the entire body will collapse, such as turning into a puddle of rotten flesh and mud, and they will all die anyway. ”

Xu Changsheng couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and he remembered another question that had something to do with him: "How did those demons that are not Qi Refiners come about?"

"The most beginners thought it was innate, and the variation that came naturally was similar to the variation that someone has six fingers in their hands. However, after the discovery of ancient genes, scholars realized that it was impossible for humans to produce such variations on their own, and that human reproduction could not cause such random changes in genes. ”

"Because although the human genes are in a dynamic equilibrium, this stability is too strong, and under normal circumstances, the ancient genes cannot break through this stability. ”

"So, all demons are not born. ”

"Those seemingly naturally occurring demons, their mutations, come from there. Lan Zijun stretched out her index finger and pointed to the top of her head.

Xu Changsheng looked up and saw a bright moon hanging high in the sky.

“...... Moon?" Xu Changsheng was surprised, he suddenly remembered that those werewolves in Western legends would transform on the night of the full moon, it was similar to this, but Lan Zijun soon denied his idea.

"To be precise, it comes from the moon's rays. Lan Zijun added.

"Yuehua, what's that?"

"I don't know. Lan Zijun shook her head, " It is supposed to be a kind of energy, but it exists in a very peculiar way, both attached to rocks and jade, and also integrated with water, and even attached to animals or plants, but the reason why it is called Yuehua is because from ancient times to the present, it has been seen many times in the shape of feathers, gathered together, and then descended from the moon to a certain place like moonlight, and then some matter in that place has this magical power, but it has no effect on everything except humans. There was even a time when someone was directly injected by Yuehua and directly incarnated into a powerful demon, but it was the kind that was completely outright, from the outside to the heart, there was no human appearance. However, he also died very quickly, and before he showed his strength, he died directly, and the whole process did not take more than ten minutes. ”

"So ferocious?" Xu Changsheng was surprised, he always felt that this Yuehua was a bit like ...... Nuclear radiation? Or something like nuclear radiation.

"But it is precisely because of the demon's abnormal performance that someone carefully collected the demon's lifespan data, and found that the demon's lifespan is basically not long, especially those demons that are generated through the moonlight and have not become qi refiners, and may not even be as good as the lifespan of ordinary people, and this kind of demon, the more they exert their strength, the shorter their lifespan will be, probably because their mutation has been consuming life force, and they don't have the true qi to support this consumption. ”

Xu Changsheng pursed his lips, his throat was a little itchy: "You are ...... You mean......" He remembered what Lan Zijun had asked him earlier.

"That's right. Lan Zijun nodded, looked at Xu Changsheng and said, "Although I don't know how you, as an ordinary person, managed to bring the mutation back to normal, but you definitely didn't mutate into a demon through the Wooden Dao Technique, so there is only one possibility." ”

"You've come into contact with Yuehua!"

How can it be?

Xu Changsheng shouted in his heart, he has been in this world for more than a hundred days, where has he ever been exposed to that kind of feather-like energy? At most, he has eaten dragon-shaped barbecue and been exposed to a big explosion...... Wait, when I think about it, my experience is a little suspicious.

No, no, no, no, I'm an ordinary person from Earth, where can I have any ancient genes that can be activated.

But...... How to explain these two mutations today......

“......”

Seeing that Xu Changsheng was speechless, Lan Zijun sighed and said, "Although I am very grateful to you for saving me today, I still have to advise you, don't use that power anymore, it is very likely that your vitality will be lost." ”

"I want to be a Qi Refiner. Xu Changsheng suddenly spoke.

"What?"

"I want to become a Qi Refiner, can you help me?"
