Having gained experience in extracting the gene of the large-tailed macaque, Ding Huān did not take any detours when refining the double-horned fire lizard's gene.
But his double-horned fire lizard may contain a trace of the bloodline of sacred beasts, and to completely transform the genetic skills of this sacred beast's bloodline into his own attribute genes, it is much more difficult than the resistance gene of the gold-faced tail macaque.
Finding the complete gene chain for the injury recovery took Ding Huan three days.
He had been spending almost all of his time in the lab, fortunately, the lab was well-equipped.
To recover his energy, Ding Huan practiced for another day.
The subsequent events were relatively simple. On the fifth day, Ding Huan successfully refined the true injury-healing gene.
In order to leave a share for Qu Yì, he specially refined two doses of this gene agent.
He also had a dose of the injury recovery gene agent extracted from the hexagonal fire lizard's gene in his bag.
However, compared to these two genuine recovery gene agents, it was a world apart and not on the same level at all.
Indeed, there is always a payoff for effort. If he hadn't gone to Tenglun Mountain to search for that fire lizard with a trace of sacred beast bloodline, how could he have obtained such valuable items?
Hurry up and pack up, and cancel the lab reservation.
When Ding Huan, who was disheveled from head to toe, came to cancel the lab reservation, the person responsible for leasing the lab did not find it surprising.
There are too many genetic scholars who come to this lab and are as sloppy as Ding Huan.
Renting a lab isn't cheap, and if you have to go back to rest after just a few days, it's too wasteful.
After leaving the lab, Ding Huan immediately went to look for a hotel.
Puhai is truly vast. Although the Blue Star Ten Academies Examination this time attracted people from all over the world to rush to Puhai, the majority of those people were concentrated around the Puhai Martial Arts Square.
Ding Huan's location was exactly on the opposite side of Puhai Martial Arts Square, so he easily found a place to stay.
After resting for the night at the hotel, Ding Huan took the injury recovery gene agent he had refined.
Although it was a gene agent at room temperature, after taking it, it immediately turned into a cold and clear spring that permeated throughout his body.
Ding Huan operated his meridians and knew the channels to practice the Zhou Tian Xing Gong, and he entered a state of meditation after only two circuits.
He woke up due to someone knocking on the door.
Ding Huan opened his eyes and felt an indescribable sense of comfort and ease throughout his entire body.
"Bang bang!" The door was knocked on again.
Ding Huan was quite frustrated, but he had no choice but to open the door.
A waiter stood at the door. Seeing Ding Huan open it, he said with some apology, "Sorry to disturb you, but since you didn't open the door for three days, we were a bit worried."
"Alright, if I don't come out in the future, don't just knock on my door randomly. Don't worry about the rent, I specifically paid five million yuan."
Ding Huan could only shrug and let it be.
"Okay, if you need anything, just call us anytime." After the waiter apologized again, he left.
It seems that I still need to find a quiet place to close myself in, otherwise practicing for a few days would be interrupted, which is not a good thing.
Closing the door, Ding Huan looked at his arm.
Should I cut it with a knife and try to see how my injury recovery is?
He is a second-level gene master, why should I use a knife? Gathering qi to cut my arm should be fine, right?
Ding Huan was contemplating how to use his inner qi to gather the essence of a blade to cut his arm, needing to control the force of the inner qi so as not to break his arm.
An unexpected information suddenly appeared in Ding Huan's mind, Wind Blade Technique...
Wind Blade Technique? Ding Huan suddenly stood up, how could such information appear in his mind?
But the next moment, the execution method of the Wind Blade Technique seemed to be etched in his memory, clear as day.
Amazing!
Ding Huan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
It's not that he thought the Wind Blade Technique was amazing. The technique is indeed powerful. According to the memory, just by concentrating inner qi through the incantation, one can easily emit wind blades.
Ding Huan thought that the leather scroll was amazing, but it was not the scroll itself, rather, he thought the person who made it was incredibly talented.
How much information was there in the leather scroll that he had not yet discovered?
"I believe that even if humans advance to the gene era and obtain gene spiritual roots, it would be very difficult for their strength to return to the era of pure spiritual root cultivators."
The reason is that during the era of spiritual root cultivation, there were many powerful cultivators who possessed spiritual roots.
They had spent countless years deliberating and through generations of repeated attempts, they had developed various simple or complex spells...
I'm not able to inherit all of these spells, but I can inscribe the simple Taoist spells such as the Wind Blade Technique, Wind Control Technique, Fireball Technique, Dust Removal Technique, and Gas Concealment Technique onto this scroll..."
The information that appeared in Ding Huan's mind made him speechless.
What wind blades, fireballs, and wind control abilities exist on Changyi Continent as well, but these abilities are achieved through gene agents.
For example, wind blades require the fusion of the gene from a spitting toad to create a gene agent, and then the fusion of this gene agent to obtain the wind blade technique.
For example, fireball technique requires extracting the fire attribute gene from a fire unicorn and incorporating it into a gene agent that is then fused with the human body.
As for other mutated species, forget it. Fire unicorn is not a mutated species.
To contain the gene for the fiery breath attribute, you need a fire unicorn that has a trace of sacred beast bloodline.
Therefore, a fire unicorn with the fiery breath attribute in Changyi Continent is an invaluable treasure.
No, it should be said that even a drop of blood from this fire unicorn is priceless.
But the memories in his mind were of spells that could enable wind blade technique, fireball technique, and so on...
It's not through gene agent skills or potions.
Ding Huan fell silent instead.
He had always thought that gene spiritual roots were just like regular spiritual roots, without any distinction.
The information in the scroll he obtained seems to agree with this. The ancient immortals became extinct later because the spiritual roots disappeared.
So, in order to cultivate, he can only merge with gene spiritual roots.
By merging with the gene spiritual root, he now has the fundamental basis to become an immortal god and approach the ancient strongmen.
Is this really the case?
There's a difference here, spiritual root cultivation eventually results in the appearance of spells. Gene spiritual root cultivation eventually results in the appearance of fusion of alien genes.
Thinking of this, Ding Huan suddenly moved his inner qi, his hands quickly forming incantations, and a blade of light shot out from his hand.
"Crack!" Nearby bedside table was almost split in half by his one wind blade.
Seeing a deep mark appear on the bedside table, Ding Huan took a deep breath and felt a cold shiver run down his spine. The wind blade technique is so strong. If it had sliced into a person, wouldn't they have been split in two?
This was the first time he had used the Wind Blade Technique. What would happen if he became proficient in it?
This is much stronger than fusing alien gene skills!
In his previous life on Changyi Continent, he dreamed of getting a spitting toad so he could make the blade tip gene agent and fuse it.
Unfortunately, until his downfall, he never managed to get one.
It seems to come so easily now? The effect is still far stronger than the spitting blade technique that fused the gene of the spitting toad.
Ding Huan immediately went to the bathroom, and his hands formed one spell after another. Half a minute later, a faint mist dissipated from Ding Huan's palm without the appearance of a fireball.
Ding Huan didn't try again. He failed to unleash a fireball not because the incantation for the fireball technique was flawed, but because he was still unfamiliar with it.
Ding Huan is almost certain that as long as this incantation is combined with inner qi, if one becomes proficient, they can really unleash the Fireball technique.
Ding Huan, having cooled down, had come to understand that it was not that the gene spiritual roots were inferior to the indigenous spiritual roots of mortals from the ancient times.
It must be wrong that the cultivation of gene spiritual roots eventually leads to all skills being through the fusion of gene skills.
It should be that some abilities are headed towards spells and some are through the fusion of alien genes.
Changyi Continent has not taken the direction of spellcasting because there are too few powerful cultivators, and no direction for cultivating spells has been found.
Now that he has obtained the ready-made wind blade construction method from the scroll, he can easily produce wind blades.
At present, only Ding Huan is practicing with gene spiritual roots.
If it wasn't for this scroll, perhaps he would have also developed the Fireball Technique and Wind Blade Technique in the future, which would still require time to accumulate.
Ding Huan had a vague realization that in gene cultivation, gene abilities and gene skills cannot be generalized.
Gene skills, such as Fireball Technique and Wind Blade Technique, all belong to this category.
These skills can be fused through alien genes.
That means by extracting genes from animals and plants that possess these innate skills, and then fusing these genes into oneself, one can acquire such abilities.
The drawback is that after fusing these skills, one cannot advance.
For example, on Changyi Continent, the wind blade skill is fused through the toad that spits blades, and the fire attribute skill is fused through the fire unicorn.
He had noticed this issue long ago, which is why he changed the gene fusion method when refining and fusing the toxin resistance skill of the Golden-faced Long-tailed Ape.
He combined his own genes, allowing the toxin resistance gene ability to become his own, which could grow with his cultivation.
But other gene cultivators don't have this ability.
Now he knows that spells can solve this problem.
The implementation of spells is stronger than the implementation of gene skills.
The same ability, such as the Wind Blade Technique, not only has stronger spells, but also improves with cultivation level.
This does not mean that spells are superior to gene fusion in all aspects.
For example, the toxins resistance genes he has obtained, or the genes for healing from injuries, may be difficult to achieve through spells.
Even if achieved through spells, the effects would not be as strong as his own inherent abilities.
The gene cultivation path in Ding Huan's mind became increasingly clear.
The achievements of gene spiritual root cultivators will not be weaker than those of mortal spiritual root cultivators they possess.
The key is how cultivators use it.
For example, abilities such as poison resistance, injury recovery, and physical condition require the fusion of alien genes to become inherent ability genes. Ordinary spells cannot accomplish this.
Skills such as Fireball, Wind Blade, and Wind Control, it is best not to fuse oneself by searching for alien genes to make gene agent potions.
Because these can be called spells, they are achievable through other means such as incantations or methods of moving qi.
In the future, if he wants to develop stronger attack spells, the same principle applies.
If one must fuse these skills genes to become one's own ability genes.
Then, it must be done in the same way as making antitoxin genes, allowing these skills to grow along with cultivation level after being fused into one's own.
Absolutely not just to take them and fuse them away, as this will only limit one's growth.
After understanding this issue, Ding Huan felt a great sense of satisfaction in his heart.
He was worried about how to find some mutated ferocious beasts with powerful attack means, and then extract their attack genes to become his own attack skills.
Now he doesn't need to do that, and in the future, he will try to do less of such things.
He now needs to find a place to repeatedly practice his Wind Blade Technique, Fireball Technique, and Wind Control Technique.
Once these three abilities are mastered, even if he encounters a heaven-level warrior, he should at least be able to defend himself.
