Chapter 1303 - 637: A Deal with Pei Yuanhu
"If I told you the information above the Celestial Abyss, would you let me go?"
Liang Yuan shook his head, "The Water God Sect killed so many of my people, I won’t let it resurrect again."
Pei Yuanhu chuckled, "The Water God Sect huh? Actually, I don’t care one bit whether it perishes or not. Do you think I founded the Water God Sect single-handedly?"
"Then you’re quite mistaken. The Water God Sect was initially established by the Four Great Priests. Later, Liang Long joined and it gradually grew stronger."
"I just happened to seize the main brain of the Water God Sect and invade Liang Long’s Spiritual World."
"In essence, this cult, I actually don’t care."
"The Miyuan Rainforest was just something I got from Liang Long. Honestly, handing over the Heart Core and Brain Core of the Miyuan Rainforest to you is no problem."
Liang Yuan raised an eyebrow, a bit puzzled.
"What do you want?"
"Speaking with a smart person is simple."
Pei Yuanhu laughed, then his expression turned serious, "I want to break through gene recombination!"
Liang Yuan was taken aback, "Break through gene recombination?"
"That’s right, my main attribute already reached 100 points but I still couldn’t break through gene recombination, consistently unable to find the corresponding genetic sequence."
"Among all the people I know, only Feng Jiangong from the military is a genius. He was the first in Guangfu to step into the gate of gene recombination."
"He even pushed the gene recombination progress to 10 percent, his experience in this area is unparalleled."
"Originally, I joined the military to seek his guidance, and for that, I already agreed to abandon the Water God Sect and serve the military wholeheartedly."
"Of course, before that, I also used the strong intellect of the main brain to calculate genetic sequences, trying to find the right recombination route."
"But unfortunately, though the main brain is intellectually powerful and quick-thinking, it played a very small role in calculating gene recombination."
"Now, I seem to see someone with even greater talent in cultivating superpowers!"
"Liang Yuan, your growth speed surpassed everyone I know. You must have unique techniques in gene recombination!"
"Teach me your gene recombination techniques, and I can hand over the Heart Core and Brain Core of the Miyuan Rainforest, even all the information the military has explored above the Celestial Abyss!"
Liang Yuan narrowed his eyes, somewhat dubious, and said, "You’re quite generous? Miyuan Rainforest, it’s a Floating Island, the only place for survival after the great flood, and you’re just giving it up?"
"Heh heh, when you’ve seen the Floating Islands above, you’ll understand these Floating Islands are nothing."
"So-called Floating Islands are just abandoned waste bodies after the nutrients are depleted."
"Floating Island, that’s the real treasure!"
Pei Yuanhu’s eyes gleamed with desire.
Liang Yuan frowned and asked, "What exactly is a Floating Island? Is it really a massive biological corpse?"
"Where did the flood in the sky come from?"
Pei Yuanhu shook his head, "I don’t know; I haven’t explored there yet."
"But I know one thing, wanting to cross the Thundercloud area with my weak human body is impossible."
"Only by transforming into the Genetic Beast state after gene recombination can withstand that kind of thunderstorm."
"Of course, ordinary levels of gene recombination also have difficulty passing through Thunderclouds; only progress reaching over 20 percent might make it possible."
"The Golden Crow Beast you saw earlier, its genetic progress should be around 20 percent; it can tear through a passage through Thunderclouds, making that time when humans can, too!"
Liang Yuan suddenly asked, "What was about the spaceship on the screen in the military base just now?"
Pei Yuanhu shook his head, "I don’t know, I haven’t seen the spaceship in my previous explorations."
"This is the first time seeing such a spaceship."
"Have you seen any traces of human activity in the sky?"
"No, apart from Mutant Beasts, I’ve seen no signs of human activity."
"So, before this, no humans could really pass through Thunderclouds?"
"Not necessarily; perhaps I haven’t discovered it, the flooding speed at high altitudes isn’t as quick, they have ample time to prepare; maybe there are Super Bases existing."
"Such bases must have human high-tech construction conditions, maybe they can manufacture materials to pass through sky Thunderclouds."
Pei Yuanhu’s speculation wasn’t without logic, and Liang Yuan pondered for a moment.
"You can’t gene recombine yourself? With your Spiritual Power, you surely could do that, couldn’t you?"
"First, my Spiritual Origin, part of it is in the main brain and was taken by you."
"Secondly, I’ve eaten too much Mutated Beast Meat, my body contains a large amount of mixed genes, making breaking through gene recombination more difficult for me than others."
"In the early stages of the great flood, the military had many resources stored, the high-ranking like Feng Jiangong and Zhang Yujiang didn’t consume Mutated Beast Meat, so their genetic purity is very high."
"Whether awakening Mutant Ability or gathering Genetic Species was easy for them."
"I’m different. I’m a regular person, coming out of death’s grasp without materials, eating Mutant Cats and Dogs, eating Mutant Fish from the flood, heh heh heh, back then, surviving was most important, who’d think, mixed genes from Mutated Beast Meat would also contaminate our body’s genes?"
"Then how can you be sure I can help you?" Liang Yuan asked.
Pei Yuanhu looked up, his gaze intent on him, "You’re also an ordinary person; your situation should be similar to mine, right? But why can you reach this step, successfully break through gene recombination and even catch up with Feng Jiangong’s progress?"
"You surely have a special method, right?"
Liang Yuan fell silent for a moment.
Indeed, he was a regular person too, but since the great flood, he never lacked food.
Even the women and partners around him never lacked food.
Influenced by Liang Yuan, they rarely consumed Mutated Beast’s flesh.
When they gathered Genetic Species, it was smooth, no hardship was felt.
Liang Yuan had forgotten: outside, those regular people who survived by consuming Mutated Beast Meat were Superpower Users.
For them, gathering Genetic Species carried great risk.
Even at the stage of gene recombination, most people were stuck at this step.
With countless miscellaneous genes interfering, finding the gene on the genetic map was truly like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Throughout Guangfu, Liang Yuan had only seen Feng Jiangong and others breakthrough gene recombination.
It was evident that most people were probably still trapped at the step of reaching 100 points in their main attribute.
Liang Yuan looked at Pei Yuanhu, he really couldn’t teach him.
Thinking about this, Liang Yuan slightly shook his head, "I can’t teach you."
Pei Yuanhu’s face changed, he stared fiercely at Liang Yuan and gritted his teeth, "Impossible, you must have a way!"
"After the great flood, I wasn’t short on food, so essentially, I was just like Feng Jiangong."
"We have fewer miscellaneous genes in our bodies, so we could quickly break through gene recombination."
"I can’t help you with your situation."
Pei Yuanhu’s face turned pale with disbelief, "You’re just an ordinary person, how could you not lack food? It’s impossible!"
Liang Yuan didn’t explain further, he just said, "However, my people are already researching gene recombination technology, and they have made a stage-specific breakthrough."
"I believe that soon, there will be methods to assist superpower users in gene recombination."
"What!"
Pei Yuanhu suddenly looked up, revealing an expression of disbelief.
"Impossible, you are a civilian force. Where do you get the ability to research gene recombination technology?"
Liang Yuan calmly said, "What’s wrong with being civilian? Gene recombination technology is medical technology, not military technology."
"Our research team in Yangshan has advanced medical technology and top-tier genetics experts."
Pei Yuanhu narrowed his eyes, "You think I would believe that?"
"Do you have another choice?"
Pei Yuanhu remained silent, then faintly smiled and said, "Killing me won’t get you anything."
"If you keep me, the military won’t just stand by. Currently, they have no way to investigate the situation above the clouds. You can imagine my importance to them."
"So they will try everything to force you to hand me over."
"If you don’t hand me over, the military might go to war with Yangshan."
Pei Yuanhu laughed and sat down, watching Liang Yuan, "For the sake of one person, would you start this war?"
Liang Yuan’s gaze narrowed slightly, this person was completely different from what he had imagined.
He initially thought Pei Yuanhu was a brute, skilled in frontal combat, never expecting him to be such an intelligent guy.
He thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "I can even give up Miyuan Rainforest, it’s too close to the Celestial Abyss. If the military can’t hold it someday, when the Celestial Abyss creatures invade, I’m afraid Miyuan Rainforest can’t be preserved."
"After hollowing out the resources of Miyuan Rainforest, I will immediately retreat to Yangshan. As for you, heh, I’ll just kill you first."
Pei Yuanhu’s smile froze instantly.
He stared at Liang Yuan, "Are you serious?"
Liang Yuan said no more, he waved his hand and an ice blade appeared in the air, "I don’t want to waste words, I’ll give you three seconds to consider."
"You can gamble, see if I really care so much about Miyuan Rainforest."
"Oh, by the way, I’ll tell you in advance, I still have three floating islands in my possession. Losing one Miyuan Rainforest doesn’t matter much to me."
Pei Yuanhu’s face slightly changed, he stared intently at Liang Yuan, "You can bear that? Miyuan Rainforest not only has a natural barrier, but the climate is also pleasant, very suitable for agriculture. It could be a massive grain warehouse!"
"One!"
"There are also plenty of Water Attribute Blood Crystals inside. I, as a Spirit Ability User, have hardly used the blood crystals in there!"
"Two!"
"After winter passes, as long as you have the Brain Core and Heart Core, it is equivalent to having a floating continent that can move, never to be constrained by floods!"
"Three!"
Whoosh!
Liang Yuan had no hesitation, and suddenly waved his hand!
Woosh—!
A sharp sound of breaking through the air exploded, as terrifying ice blades shot madly toward Pei Yuanhu!
Pei Yuanhu’s pupils constricted, he quickly ducked to dodge!
Bang!
The ice blade instantly pierced above his head and shot directly at the spatial barrier, violently exploding into countless ice shards.
Pei Yuanhu’s face changed dramatically, "You’re serious!"
Liang Yuan raised his hand again, this time conjuring dozens of ice blades directly!
Pei Yuanhu hurriedly shouted, "Wait, I can still help you explore the Celestial Abyss, don’t you want to know what’s above the Celestial Abyss? Where did those floating islands come from, and what is that waterfall spanning the sky?"
"Don’t you want to know all these?"
Liang Yuan sneered, "I am not like the military, exploring the Celestial Abyss, I have my own methods, I don’t need you!"
Saying that, he waved his hand again, dozens of ice blades burst toward Pei Yuanhu!
The speed of these ice blades was too fast and the coverage area was too large.
Pei Yuanhu, after all, was just a Spirit Ability User, unable to dodge at all.
Seeing these ice blades were really going to pierce his body, Liang Yuan showed no sign of stopping!
He was instantly chilled to the bone, hurriedly shouted, "Stop, stop! Stop! You win!"
"The Heart Core and Brain Core, I’ll give them to you!"
