"You're gone?" Ding Huan repeated instinctively.
He ran all the way back to Yanhe City and arrived at the Yilan Hotel right away. The information he received from the front desk was that Qu Y left Yanhe City at six in the morning.
Because the mutated golden-faced thick-tailed monkey, Ding Huan arrived here at eight o'clock in the morning.
Leaving the Yilan Hotel, Ding Huan immediately intended to purchase a car plate for the journey to Pujiang.
Even if Qu Y doesn't believe in his gene drug right now, Ding Huan still wants to find out where Qu Y's family lives.
According to his memory, Qu Y would be taken to the genetic alliance for experimentation at most in four or five months.
Wait...
Four or five months? That happens to be right after the recruitment exam of the top ten academies in Lan Star ends, doesn't it?
The recruitment examination of the top ten academies on Lan Star is less than three months away. If Qu Y was taken away after the exam and then used as a test subject for genetic experiments in another four or five months, that is completely possible.
The recruitment of the top ten academies on Lan Star, the Genetic Union definitely has a small part of the authority.
After all, the top ten academies on Lan Star are created jointly by over 100 countries, Martial Arts Alliance and Genetic Union.
Qu Y mentioned going to Bo Hai for a tryout, which is definitely about attending the recruitment examination of the top ten academies on Lan Star.
If he goes to Bo Hai and finds Qu Y right now, would Qu Y believe him? Would he be willing to integrate the gene drug provided by this stranger?
Since Qu Y is definitely not going to integrate the gene drug he provides, it is unnecessary for him to go to Bo Hai first.
He will still follow the original plan to look for the fire lizard, and then return to Luohe City to make the gene drug.
As soon as the gene drug is made, he will go to Pu Hai in advance.
At least during this period, Qu Y is safe.
......
There is a need for a transfer of trains from Yanhe City to Lujiang City.
Now, the wild is very unsafe. For example, on the way from Yanhe City to Lujiang City, there are many uninhabited areas that need to be crossed. These places are all home to genetic beasts that rampage freely.
Generally speaking, the trains on these routes do not run at night.
Ding Huan bought a ticket in time and arrived in Lujiang City in the evening.
Ding Huan had planned to stay in Lujiang City for the night and then go out to search for the fire lizard the next day.
However, when Ding Huan arrived in Lujiang City, he realized that he had underestimated others.
It's unnecessary to search for fire lizards in Lujiang City, as they can be purchased directly.
Here, almost everywhere are shops selling fire lizards, and the prices are also very low.
Whether you want dried or live fire lizards, you can buy them here.
Moreover, not only can you buy fire lizards from Europe and Central Asia, but the prices are much higher here.
After a brief inquiry, Ding Huan understood the reason.
The fire lizards today can be used in medicine, having the effects of strengthening meridians and healing wounds for martial artists. Moreover, major genetic laboratories also greatly need such things.
Ding Huan easily purchased several live fire lizards with over one hundred Alliance coins.
"Friend, the fire lizard you purchased has an average appearance. I have the six-sided fire lizard..."
Seeing Ding Huan holding a cage for fire lizards, a street vendor quickly promoted their own items.
Six-sided fire lizard?
"Let me see." Ding Huan stopped and indeed saw several six-sided fire lizards on the other person's stall.
"This head isn't small." Ding Huan was very satisfied.
The stall owner heard Ding Huan's words and smiled, "My fire lizards are all wild, most of yours are farmed."
"Did you catch them yourself?" This surprised Ding Huan.
The vendor proudly said, "Who doesn't know that my fire lizards are caught in Peng Lu mountain? Even the people from the top ten academies on Lan Star have come to buy fire lizards from me."
"It's amazing that those who can go to Peng Lu mountain to catch fire lizards are not simple. The genetic beasts in Peng Lu mountain don't recognize anyone."
Ding Huan casually praised the man, intending to buy another fire lizard from the vendor.
Ding Huan genuinely praised the vendor, saying that there are many genetic beasts in Peng Lu mountain as well. Only those who are good at handling them would dare to catch wild fire lizards.
The vendor's enthusiasm grew, "That's fine, but I saw a two-horned fire lizard in Peng Lu mountain the last time I was there."
To be honest, I've lived for so many years, and I've never seen a two-horned fire lizard over a meter long.
"Two-horned fire lizard? A meter long?" Ding Huan's eyes immediately shone.
This is definitely a top-grade variant of the fire lizard. It's said that the fire lizard has a trace of divine beast blood, which refers to dragons.
Naturally, the image of a one-meter-long two-horned fire lizard with divine beast blood and the characteristics of a variant that has regressed to its ancestors popped into Ding Huan's mind.
"Absolutely true. Maybe it's even longer than a meter. I saw it with my own eyes. But it was a variant beast, so I ran when I saw it." The vendor declared earnestly.
"Oh, then I'll take one of your six-sided fire lizards." Ding Huan did not continue to ask, but purchased one six-sided fire lizard.
If it wasn't urgent to head to Pu Hai, Ding Huan would have liked to enter Peng Lu Mountain to search for the two-horned fire lizard.
It can be imagined that it's very difficult to find the two-horned fire lizard.
It would be worth the effort to find it, but he would have to wait until he saw Qu Y. He couldn't put Qu Y in danger because of himself.
Ding Huan stayed in Lujiang for one night and returned to Luohe on the third day.
The four men of Geng Qianxing were still madly practicing the thousand-network gene secret and basic long-fist, and nobody knew that Ding Huan had returned.
Without even resting, Ding Huan came straight to the genetic laboratory.
If it weren't for the Dean of YU University, Tan Bei, eager to have someone represent the school in getting into one of the top ten academies on Lan Star this time, he might have already sold this laboratory.
The school's indifference to the laboratory was indeed convenient for Ding Huan.
Ding Huan did not start by extracting the fire lizard's gene for injury recovery, but first chose to extract the golden-faced thick-tailed monkey's anti-toxin gene, and then concocted a gene drug that could be integrated.
Ding Huan will also make the gene for healing and recovery of fire lizards, but he hasn't decided to use it for now.
When he has free time, he plans to see if he can find that two-horned fire lizard over a meter long.
Ding Huan wasn't the first time he had extracted and refined a gene drug that could integrate with the human body; recently, his work had gone extremely smoothly.
Each time he extracts a gene drug that can integrate with the human body, Ding Huan feels like he has gained a deeper understanding of the production of gene drugs.
Therefore, when extracting the antitoxin gene of the golden-faced thick-tailed monkey this time, Ding Huan was not worried about failing.
However, the harder something seems, the more difficult it is to achieve.
Ding Huan has been in the laboratory for two days, filling up several notebooks with recorded data, yet he still cannot extract the antitoxin gene of the golden-faced thick-tailed monkey.
If it weren't for him cutting half the tail of the golden-faced thick-tailed monkey, he might not have had any material left to continue his experiment.
On the third day, Ding Huan felt that he could not continue like this; there would be no progress if he kept going like this.
Ding Huan left the genetic laboratory to take a bath and eat something, resting overnight before starting to think about a new plan.
Once he calmed down and thought carefully, some fuzzy gene knowledge gradually appeared in his mind.
What was originally unclear began to become clearer as he spent time organizing his thoughts.
First of all, it is the spiritual root gene. In the era when genes were not mentioned, the spiritual root should be a type of gene.
But as time went on, the celestial qi on Earth became scarce, and humans living on the planet began to gradually lose some of their capabilities.
The spiritual root gene thus degenerated and disappeared. Without the spiritual root, no matter how good the martial arts or how concentrated the celestial qi, it is impossible to practice.
He can make the spiritual root gene not only because of the Reincarnation Blood, but more importantly, his own spiritual root gene is for his own use.
In other words, if he makes the spiritual root gene drug for Qu Y, will it really integrate?
Secondly, there is the skill gene. The antitoxin gene he made this time also belongs to the skill gene.
However, can you not simply borrow the gene abilities of other genes, such as the antitoxin ability of the white-faced thick-tailed monkey?
Instead of changing the gene abilities into your own physical fitness genes, that's different.
One is simply to integrate and then possess this ability.
One is to transform it into a natural instinct of your own body, without the need to integrate foreign genes.
At first glance, there is no difference, but Ding Huan dimly feels that there is a huge difference between the two. This difference may even determine his future achievements.
Unfortunately, he cannot figure out where this difference lies right now.
Don't worry about figuring out the difference for now. Let's focus on how to create an antitoxin gene drug.
As Ding Huan began to think more and more based on the vague gene knowledge, the means to refine the foreign genes into a form that can integrate with the human body gradually became clearer.
For any foreign gene, in order for humans to extract it, and then make it into a form that can integrate with the human body, and for humans to possess the attributes of this foreign gene, they must seek it out.
That's right, it's about searching.
If what he wants is not simply to extract and integrate foreign genes, but to transform the gene abilities into his own innate instincts, what he needs is not just a gene fragment…
The previous extract was only a tiny fragment of the golden-faced thick-tailed monkey's antitoxin gene, and there are many such fragments in the golden-faced thick-tailed monkey.
His previous approach was to refine a tiny gene fragment into an antitoxin gene drug that can integrate with the human body.
Fortunately, he had not succeeded before.
Now, he cannot proceed in this way. Instead, he must extract numerous such gene fragments, then add them to other genes, even his own genes, to fuse them with the gene fragments and form a new gene…
This is also the process of refining new genes.
This process of refining new genes does not simply involve borrowing the innate abilities of foreign genes.
Instead, it is through the expression of the foreign gene that this skill is transformed into an inherent attribute of one's own.
Ding Huan was very excited. He felt that his utilization of foreign genes had undergone a qualitative change from quantity to quality.
No longer content with surface-level gene utilization.
But to extract a specific complete gene from billions of genes is incredibly difficult.
Ding Huan looked at his notes and knew that if he continued like this, even if he had a few truckloads of notebooks, he might not find all the gene fragments needed.
A sudden method occurred to Ding Huan's mind, he could use the gene death screening method……
By adding a certain type of gene to the billions of gene fragments, any gene fragment that does not match the needed one would be dissolved and killed. Isn't what remains exactly what he needs?
He can add the gene segment to be dissolved and killed, while others can't. He can do it.
With a solution in hand, Ding Huan took a deep breath, not delaying a single moment before hurrying back to the laboratory again.
Continuing to extract the antitoxin gene from the golden-faced thick-tailed monkey, prepare the drug, and add the dissolving gene...
A day, two days...
One piece of data after another, Ding Huan records them down, then screens and adds new dissolving genes…
On the sixth day, Ding Huan excitedly held two test tubes containing fire red gene reagents.
He succeeded, successfully making two antitoxin gene drugs.
Ding Huan felt that these two bottles of gene drugs were more precious than the spiritual root gene drugs he made before.
It's not that the spiritual root gene drug is easier to make, but because he has found a new direction for gene fusion, no longer just making gene drugs.
With this method, Ding Huan has a greater chance of making spiritual root gene drugs for Qu Y.
However, the prerequisite is the cooperation of Qu Y. He needs to find a spiritual root gene drug that can be integrated with Qu Y.
It will require Qu Y's blood; he needs to find a way to integrate the spiritual root gene drug with her genome.
He has to go to Puhai in advance.
After making up his mind, Ding Huan immediately packaged the antitoxin gene drug he had in his hand into a glass bottle, while drinking the other bottle of gene drug directly.
The fire-like colored drug felt like a line of cool snow upon entry, which instantly spread throughout Ding Huan's body.
Ding Huan, enlightened by good fortune, quickly began to cultivate using the Network Awareness Scripture.
The next moment, Ding Huan felt continuous pain within his body, but the pain was seemingly rolled away and dissolved by the cool snow lines.
Droplets of gray liquid seeped out from the tips of his fingers, and Ding Huan felt a mix of fear and anger welling up in his heart.
He was actually poisoned! Thank goodness he took the gene drugs he had made today.
Even if he didn't die, his cultivation path after this incident would likely be blocked at the gene foundation stage.
(That's all for today's update. Friends, good night. During the launch of the new book, Old Five here is asking for some recommendation votes and monthly tickets.)
