Low Dimensional Game

Lu Zhiyu placed a sequoia tree in his lab and put the soul of the Tree of Life into the sequoia. Every day, he observed and examined the tree to understand more about the characteristics of souls.

At the moment, there was a fresh drop of blood in a test tube. It contained the deified cells which Lu Zhiyu had created, and he had been observing it carefully for a while now. They were his own cells, deified using the mind power he had obtained after a few days of meditation.

Ever since he had deified his brain and obtained the mind power space, the efficiency of his mediation had grown significantly. His mind power and consciousness had fused together to form his soul, which had a very stable structure. Now he could enter the zero-dimensional world for a long time without worrying about being assimilated.

Originally, increasing his mind power by one would take over ten days, and his mind power had only managed to reach 128 SFU after several years. Now, he could gain one SFU mind power increase in a day of meditation. As compared to the past, it was over ten times faster. Indeed, it was a major improvement!

Even so, Lu Zhiyu had calculated that it would take about 6400 SFU mind power to deify all of his cells. The cells in his brain only accounted for two percent of his whole body. With his current progress, it would take him at least seventeen years to deify all his cells and enter the next stage.

After some research, Lu Zhiyu now knew some characteristics of deified cells. One of them was that no changes would occur to the ordinary parts of a deified cell. The only difference was the deification. To be more precise, on the cellular level, the cell would have the characteristics of mind power and also Lu Zhiyu’s spiritual imprint.

The second feature of a deified cell was that the cell was extremely invasive. Regardless of what organism the cell came into contact with, it would immediately start to corrode the cells of the organism, changing the organism’s form closer to Lu Zhiyu’s form.

The third thing he observed was that deified cells could be easily shaped and controlled. He could control and adjust his own deified cells freely. In this way, Lu Zhiyu could change his genes and strengthen himself according to his own imagination. He could even give himself various abilities that would otherwise only exist in legends!

When he first figured out these characteristics of deified cells, Lu Zhiyu was very excited. Such powerful plasticity and controllability… Once I understand the genetic template of some powerful creatures, I can actually turn into them. I can change myself into a dragon which can change its size and shape freely.

Lu Zhiyu thought about something else immediately. No, not just that. As long as I can understand the laws of nature, and understand how electricity and fire are formed, I can burn them onto my genes. In this way, I can possess various extraordinary abilities. It will not just be abilities from my physical body obtained via genetic inheritance. Instead, I can really control lightning, fire, metals, magnetism, gravity, and temperature!

Of course, normal cells would not be able to tolerate changes like this, but deified cells were not normal. He would be able to control his deified cells up to the smallest details, and adjust, strengthen, and modify them according to his will. Moreover, his strong restorative ability could also help him to endure such changes.

As long as his mind power was strong enough, he could truly be like a real god; he could change the laws of nature, control the elements, create massive destructions with the flip of his hand, and crush stars in just one punch.

He also knew that if he deified his entire body and became a totally deified creature, his body would no longer have any weaknesses. Even if most of his body was destroyed, as long as some of his cells managed to escape, he could revive. He could actually become an invincible, god-like being only heard in legends!

This was why Lu Zhiyu wanted to deify his entire body as soon as possible. Looking at the deified cells that he had created, Lu Zhiyu felt like he had just opened a Pandora’s box.

Of course, he was still very far away from becoming a deified creature, and he would not be able to complete it anytime soon. Nevertheless, Lu Zhiyu could also start to try other things at the moment, or begin collecting information so that he would know what to do after getting deified.

Lu Zhiyu waved and summoned an ant-person who had been guarding at the doors into his lab. He hesitated for a second, after which he extracted the blood containing his deified cells with a needle and injected it into the ant-person.

Then, he opened the nutrient pool made from a freezer at the side and made the ant-person lie inside. He closed the tub off and began observing the changes to the ant-person attentively.

Immediately, Lu Zhiyu saw the body of the ant-person collapse. Then, its lean body began to expand. Lu Zhiyu could feel that the ant-person’s cells were changing rapidly and drastically.

Lu Zhiyu’s deified cells were assimilating the ant-person’s entire body rapidly, affecting all its cells like radiation. The deified cells changed its cells and regrouped its genes. One drop of blood was all it took to completely change the ant-person.

Lu Zhiyu could feel his human genes and longevity genes assimilating the ant-person, turning it into a being that more closely resembled himself. The ant-person shrank in size, and muscles began growing around its joints. Its shell was slowly replaced by many muscles, and a layer of skin began developing over the newly-formed muscles.

“This is amazing. How can a drop of blood achieve this?” Lu Zhiyu muttered. “The invasiveness of deified cells is terrifying!” Lu Zhiyu could imagine that even if a real deified creature was dead, its corpse could still turn a barren piece of land into a hotbed for thousands of lives.

If the deified creature was powerful enough, maybe a person would be affected on the most fundamental level by just looking at the creature or being close to it. The person’s form would also change towards that of the creature and become its spawn. In fact, he would never be able to escape its control. With such an ability, what could better describe the creature other than the word “demon?”

“Oh no!” Lu Zhiyu suddenly seemed to have felt something.

The ant-person’s body began to quickly collapse. Within a few seconds, the ant-person’s body fell apart, turning into bloody lumps on the ground.

Lu Zhiyu raised his hand and many pinpricks of microscopic cells rose out of the ant-person’s body, converging back into a drop of blood in the air.

Lu Zhiyu sighed, “I failed.”

Just now, Lu Zhiyu could feel that his spiritual imprints in the deified cells were invading the ant-person’s cells, but they were met with resistance. The fusion was unsuccessful, and it caused the ant-person’s genes to fall apart.

Lu Zhiyu put the deified blood back into the test tube and sealed it off with a cork. Then, he sat on his chair and started thinking. Ant-people are not very intelligent, but they still have their own minds. It is only natural for their bodies to instinctively resist any foreign invasion.Therefore, there was a conflict with my spiritual imprints.

So this means that if I can find someone who will not resist my will at all, I can change him, on the most fundamental level, into a spawn that carries my bloodline… Why does this sound like creating a mad religious believer?
