Chapter Ten: Genes also have grades

Genres:Martial Arts and Xianxia Last update:25/03/23 21:01:30
    "Ding Huan faintly said, 'You should still not fully understand my words. I just said that gene medicine not only has hierarchical grades, but also different levels.'"

    "More to learn." Geng Qianhang felt that Ding Huan's tone was not as if he was fooling him.

    Ding Huan said, "According to my understanding of gene medicine, it not only has level one, but also level two, three... and so on."

    "Every gene medicine at each level also has good and bad ones, including lower grades, medium grades, upper grades, and top grades."

    "What does the grade gene medicine mean?" Geng Qianhang frowned, when did his gene knowledge become so deficient?

    He knew that there were level one and level two gene cultivators, but did gene medicine also have level one and level two?

    Ding Huan explained, "It's just that you don't know. The Gene Union has recently formulated the grades of gene medicine. As for the grade of gene medicine, it hasn't been released yet, I believe it will be out soon."

    By the way, you should know that after gene fusion, it needs cultivation, right?”

    Geng Qianhang nodded, "Of course I know that. The Gene Union and the Martial Arts Union have collaborated to come up with methods for gene cultivation, but these are not something ordinary people can access."

    Geng Qianhang's heart was also helpless. He had heard of gene cultivation techniques, but this thing was too precious for him, and he definitely couldn't get it.

    Without gene cultivation techniques, after he fused an alien gene, he could only become a gene abler, but not a gene refiner.

    Upon reflection, Geng Qianhang suddenly understood, "Do you mean that if one has gene cultivation techniques, after reaching level two as a gene cultivator, they can then fuse level two gene medicine?"

    Ding Huan nodded, "Yes, there should be level two gene cultivators now, and even level three gene cultivators have appeared. That's why the Gene Union divided gene medicine into grades."

    To fuse level two gene medicine, one must become a level two gene refiner."

    The reason for such a statement is that Ding Huan had seen a powerful figure from the Gene Union when he was forced to leave Earth with the Gene Union fleet.

    At that time, he only felt the utmost pressure from the other party. Later, after becoming a four-level gene cultivator, he suspected that the strong figure he had seen on Earth was a level three gene cultivator.

    "What about the gene grade?"

    "You know why many people experience various outcomes after fusing mature genes, even sudden death and physical disabilities?"

    "Is it because the gene grade is not high enough?" Geng Qianhang seemed to understand Ding Huan's meaning.

    Ding Huan said, "Yes, if it's gene medicine of the top grade, in most cases, it won't cause problems like sudden death or physical disability after fusion."

    Not only that, but the top-grade genes are very pure. Fusing a top-grade gene medicine and then undergoing gene cultivation will lead to very rapid progress.

    "I believe the Gene Union will soon formulate grades based on the purity of gene medicine."

    Wandering for two hundred years, Ding Huan had seen too many people.

    Geng Qianxing is very innocent, has a solid foundation in gene knowledge, and is a good helper; he is absolutely a pearl that has not been discovered.

    So he decided to share some important information with Geng Qianxing, hoping to lure him.

    Geng Qianhang did not speak, he felt that Ding Huan was not much like a scammer, but it just happened that Ding Huan's words were like those of a scammer.

    He has always been just a crazy gene researcher, and now Ding Huan's words have made him face the reality.

    Even if he has found the endurance gene, and no one can threaten him, what's the point? He doesn't have a way to cultivate genes.

    "I said I have a better gene cultivation technique, even better than the best gene cultivation method of the Gene Union. Do you believe me?"

    Geng Qianxing opened his mouth wide, better than the gene cultivation methods of the Gene Union? Better than a gene cultivation technique?

    Is he just boasting or is it true?

    Ding Huan hehehe smiled, "I'll reveal a secret that almost everyone doesn't know to you. Do you know if the gods in Chinese legends are true or false?"

    I'll tell you, I don't know if the gods with names exist, but I guess if gene cultivation is taken to its ultimate level, the existence of gods is very likely to be true.

    Ding Huan is one who speaks without reservation, and these are indeed his guesses.

    Geng Qianxing woke up from the silence and shock from earlier, and Ding Huan's words brought him back to calmness.

    He realized that he had gone crazy, seriously listening all this time. Feeling somewhat speechless, he said, "Is it possible for immortals to achieve immortality through the gene cultivation technique you mentioned?"

    Ding Huan did not pay attention to Geng Qianxing's tone, and continued to say,

    "I'm not quite certain right now, but I think if there is still someone who can transcend the human limit and become an immortal, gene cultivation is the closest one to us."

    After a pause, Ding Huan continued, "Of course, not all genes can be cultivated through gene techniques. Genes are divided into many categories, and only those who fuse the spiritual root gene have a chance to cultivate."

    Otherwise, one can only practice gene meditation to enhance their strength, which is not gene-foundation cultivation and the achievements will be limited.

    According to my understanding, the most precious genes in the universe are spiritual root genes, which are extremely difficult to research.

    "In addition to the spiritual root gene, the most important genes to enhance oneself are skill genes, which are numerous. Genes such as flying, teleportation, defense, and so on all belong to this category."

    Ding Huan knows this, not only from his two hundred years of wandering in the universe and experiences, but mainly from the understanding of genes provided by that skin scroll which broadened his vision.

    From that scroll, Ding Huan gained a wealth of gene and cultivation knowledge.

    Through these, combined with his own conjectures, a rough outline of gene cultivation was born.

    "So according to what you've said, the endurance gene that I researched is a skill gene?" Geng Qianxing felt that Ding Huan was wasting his talent if he didn't sell insurance. He could really talk! One story after another.

    Ding Huan said indifferently, "Strictly speaking, the gene you researched is just one type within the endurance genes."

    There are many categories of genes that can improve endurance, and what you have researched is just one of them. That's also quite an achievement.

    Genes that improve strength, speed, endurance, flexibility, and agility are called physical genes.

    These genes are also very important because, to become a strong person, physical condition is equally important.

    In a few years, top martial artists will be everywhere, thanks to the assistance of various genes.

    By fusing these genes, although humans cannot fly or disappear into thin air, they can enhance their potential for martial arts training.”

    "Have you finished? If you're done, then please leave, I need to continue working." Geng Qianxing had no desire to continue the conversation with Ding Huan.

    Ding Huan suddenly said, "Your research on endurance genes should be showing a tendency for the genes to dissolve in the gene solution, making it uncontrollable, right?"

    "I wrote it clearly enough, you don't need to say anything." Geng Qianxing said coldly.

    It was clearly written on the notes he placed on the table, with the words "formation" and "dissolution."

    Ding Huan didn't pay attention to Geng Qianxing's attitude and continued to say,

    "Each gene has its own stabilizing element, which is no exception to the composition of genes. Just like the Chinese medicine emphasizes the roles of monarch, minister, assistant, and attendant, try adding the PT short chain gene from Zongxincao."

    If you don't know what a PT short chain gene is, take a look at last month's "PT Short Chain Gene Encyclopedia" published by the Luo Corporation.

    By the way, you should also not know what Zongxincao is, but Du Chong should know, right? Du Chong has a variant species which is exactly Zongxincao. This medicinal material is also introduced in the "PT Short Chain Gene Encyclopedia".”

    After saying this, Ding Huan turned and walked away, only to turn back again at the door and say, "If you succeed, you can find me. I'm doing experiments next door."

    Ding Huan walked into the neighboring laboratory and felt that Yujiang University is truly without hope.

    How secretive and important is a gene laboratory?

    The gene laboratory here is not managed or guarded, in other words, anyone could potentially enter the lab and conduct gene experiments.

    It's very amusing and incredible, yet it has happened.

    The materials for refining the wood elemental gene root, apart from Hui Luan's blood, are not considered precious.

    Ding Huan plans to try using his own blood first, and if it doesn't work, he will go search for the blood of gene beasts.

    Unlike Geng Qianxing, who did not even lock the door of the laboratory when researching endurance genes, Ding Huan locked the laboratory door as soon as he entered.

    First, let's get some food to fill our stomachs. He doesn't know how long this gene experiment will take, and he has no intention of going out to eat.

    ......

    The Yujiang University is about to go bankrupt, and even the coffee shop outside the university gate is now deserted.

    However, in the past few days, there have been two people sitting inside the coffee shop.

    Both of them were not tall in stature, with one having fair skin and looking quite scholarly and polite. The other, however, seemed quite fierce, at least his appearance was somewhat menacing.

    Their purpose is the same, which is to keep an eye on the entrance of Yujiang University.

    The two have been keeping an eye on the university for over a week. A few days ago, there were almost no people coming to the university, so they didn't feel too tired.

    These past few days, more people have been coming in and out of the university, making it a bit more difficult for them to keep watch.

    "Dong Valley, have you noticed that there have been more people entering Yujiang University recently? We can't keep doing this. If we do, we risk missing something even slightly."

    The fair-skinned man rubbed his eyes, which were slightly sore, and said.

    The man named Dong Valley stood up, "Let's go to the place where that Ding Xiaotuo lives. I don't believe a small grasshopper can escape that far."

    "The place they're staying isn't safe." The fair-skinned man shook his head.

    Dong Valley huffed, "This university is about to go bankrupt, what's the problem? Li Changqi, your courage is too small."

    Li Changqi shook his head and said, "It's not that I'm scared; it's because the admissions for the Top Ten Universities on Blue Star are about to start."

    Dong Valley opened his mouth, but it took him a while to say, "What does this have to do with Yujiang University? That university is going to close down eventually."

    After all, even if Yujiang University doesn't collapse, it has nothing to do with the Top Ten Universities on Blue Star, right? Can a school like this even get close to the Top Ten Universities on Blue Star?”

    Li Changqi made a dismissive sound, as if he looked down on Dong Valley's ignorance, but still answered,

    "The admissions for the Top Ten Universities on Blue Star have quotas, and not just anyone can participate. As a legitimate university, Yujiang University also has a certain number of quotas."

    Many students who cannot participate in the admissions for the Top Ten Universities on Blue Star from other schools but think they're good enough, try to enter Yujiang University to occupy this quota.

    Not only that, Yujiang University itself wants to take advantage of this big competition to see if it can be brought back from the brink of collapse.

    Moreover, even Li Changqi doesn't feel like explaining this to Dong Valley. Participating in the admissions for the Top Ten Universities on Blue Star, even if they don't get in, will greatly increase their value. Whether it's finding a job or going somewhere else in the future, it will be a valuable asset.

    Moreover, participating in such level examinations can greatly increase their knowledge and experience. They may even have the chance to meet some future big shots.

    "Hence why..."

    Dong Valley finally understood, these days, apart from some students from the university who want to participate in the Blue Star Ten University Examination, there are also some people from outside who have come to temporarily transfer to Yujiang University.

    "So we cannot enter Ding Xiaotuo's residence, but we can wait outside his residence. This way, as soon as Ding Xiaotuo returns, we will definitely catch him." Li Changqi said.

    "Alright, let's do it that way." Dong Valley nodded, agreeing with Li Changqi's plan.

    (That's it for today's update, good night everyone!)
