Chapter 819 - 554: The 8th Deep Evolution Is Beckoning

Around 1 AM.

The temperature in the cold winter is very low.

Frost gradually forms on the leaves of plants outside.

A gust of cold wind keeps howling, adding to the desolation.

All is silent, a piece of tranquility.

In the Diamond Home, Lu Li came to the secondary bedroom to avoid being disturbed.

"On the path of evolution, I’ve encountered many difficulties, but ultimately succeeded in overcoming them."

He sat on the chair by the window, staring at the waning moon in the night sky, "Regardless of what kind of difficulties or risks I encountered in the past, I went through them without hesitation, which led to today’s achievements."

Back then, he dared to eat jade and iron pieces without ensuring safety, all for the sake of experimenting with superpowers.

If mishandled, it could have truly cost him his life.

There was also the fifth deep evolution.

Due to the severe lack of energy, he even spent days flying to the distant sun.

At that time, he was also unsure if the sun’s immense gravity would tear him to pieces.

Not to mention whether the infinite high temperature near the sun would melt him.

In the uncertainty, he constantly explored, and finally obtained the shockingly terrifying Divine Power that stunned the cosmic stars.

Since he was so brave when he was weak, why would he become timid now that he is powerful?

Lu Li extended his hand, and a book titled "Evolution" condensed in his palm.

He didn’t need to look to know what was written in the book.

Nothing but the origin of species, and the process of development and evolution.

Regarding evolution... or rather evolution, the direct evidence is the human opposable thumb.

Of course, Lu Li saw a lot of arguments online that "evolution theory is debunked."

He couldn’t even bother to look at those who claim that evolution is a hypothesis, not a theory.

Seven or eight out of ten of those people probably don’t even know Mendel’s laws of inheritance.

After all, this law can only be learned in high school...

Alright then, back to the topic.

Lu Li slowly opened his eyes, glanced at "Evolution," and said, "Our human ancestors evolved through numerous deadly experiences, the most famous of which being when our human population was at its lowest, with only a thousand or so people left, if our ancestors had been as cautious as I am now, humankind might have been extinct, and neither I nor other anomalies would have been born."

Evolution demands a price!

And that price is growing through repeated near-death experiences!

Lu Li squeezed his hand, and the "Evolution" book in his palm instantly turned to dust.

"With such an opportunity in front of me, what harm is there in gambling with my life?"

The adventurous spirit engraved in human bones was completely ignited at this moment!

Lu Li didn’t hesitate any longer and casually condensed a new "Map of Rivers and Mountains."

He wanted to conduct an experiment before the adventure.

Ensuring that even if he was gone, family and friends could still conduct the experiment safely.

With some effort, the Map of Rivers and Mountains was already condensed.

The next moment, Lu Li harnessed his energy to start blasting at the "dimensional barriers."

When a crack appeared in the "dimensional barriers," he sent the Map of Rivers and Mountains, wrapped in energy, to the Cosmic Mother Sea.

Lu Li randomly chose a universe and sent this Divine Artifact into it.

After finishing all this, he immediately closed the "dimensional barriers" and waited quietly for a while.

Lu Li could completely confirm that when the "dimensional barriers" closed, his connection with the Map of Rivers and Mountains was severed.

In other words, if the Map of Rivers and Mountains could still exist without his energy support, it would mean that even if he perished, the Divine Artifact could still exist, and the peaches eaten by family and friends, as well as the Immortal Techniques they practiced, wouldn’t dissipate because of his demise.

If he couldn’t find the Map of Rivers and Mountains in that universe later, it would mean that if he perished, everything would reset to the starting point.

"Logically it shouldn’t." Lu Li analyzed carefully, "At least in this universe, energy must comply with the law of conservation of energy and mass. Whether it’s peaches or various magic treasures like the Infinity Gauntlet and the Map of Rivers and Mountains, all were condensed by my energy. This energy has already been consumed, just like bricks built into a house. If the builders are gone, will the house disappear?"

The house being built won’t disappear simply because the builders are gone.

Of course, as long as Lu Li is around, he can still easily reclaim the magical treasures he created or the powers given to others.

He waited for about half an hour.

Lu Li once again blasted open the "dimensional barriers," wrapped his consciousness in energy, and intruded into the universe where he had previously tossed the Map of Rivers and Mountains, wanting to see if the Divine Artifact was still there.

A moment later, he found the Map of Rivers and Mountains he had thrown in.

Lu Li immediately sensed that although the Map of Rivers and Mountains had not been used, it had still slightly depleted some energy after half an hour.

He mused, "Even if left stable here, the magical treasure still requires sustaining energy."

Lu Li calculated based on the "amount" of energy depleted by the magical treasure.

He finally deduced that if the Map of Rivers and Mountains was disconnected from him for 108,000 Earth years, it would become unstable and revert completely into an energy state.

This is under the premise of not using the Map of Rivers and Mountains.

If used, each use might shorten the time by about a thousand years.

"Enough." Lu Li was very satisfied with the experimental results, "With 108,000 years, even if I am not here, my family and friends could fully utilize the magical treasures and Divine Power I left behind to build an unparalleled cosmic empire. By then, they surely won’t lack loyal death-defying warriors."
