The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 926 Ding Yan's Worries

"Starry Sky Beast...is it a realm beyond genetic recombination?"

"It can be that big? Big enough to devour a planet?"

Ding Yan finally came to her senses and couldn't help but ask.

She truly couldn't imagine such a scene.

It's important to know that even with perfect genetic recombination, a creature is only about 100 meters in size.

But compared to a planet, this is far too insignificant.

She naturally couldn't understand how genetic recombination could lead to such a drastic change, from a Star God to a Starry Sky Beast.

Liang Yuan also shook his head and said, "I have never seen just how big the Starry Sky Beast is."

"But Yin Yu and Jin Peng should know that, according to them, the size of the star beast is related to the quality of the star cores they absorbed and refined during their breakthrough."

"Core quality?"

"It is the core of the planet, or star core for short, not the heart core inside the floating island."

"According to them, the energy contained in the core of a planet is different, and after being absorbed and refined, it will be directly reflected in the size of the star beast."

"So what I'm worried about isn't the divine kingdom, nor the southern Japanese kingdom. What I'm concerned about is, if a cosmic behemoth of this magnitude comes to the Milky Way, and if it sets its sights on Earth, we can only watch helplessly as it devours and refines Earth. What can we do to stop it?"

"Do you get me?"

Ding Yan let out a breath and said, "You... I really didn't expect that you'd start thinking about things beyond this planet?"

Then she suddenly realized something and looked at Liang Yuan: "Are you close to reaching the perfect state of gene recombination?"

She realized this; if Liang Yuan hadn't come into contact with this level, he most likely wouldn't have considered these things.

He only starts to consider these issues when he's about to get close to someone.

Liang Yuan smiled and nodded slightly: "It's almost done. My gene recombination progress has reached 97%."

"what!"

Ding Yan was taken aback and looked at Liang Yuan in shock: "97%? You, how did you cultivate like this?"

Keep in mind that her gene recombination progress is only 53% at this point.

Liang Yuan's gene recombination progress is almost twice as fast as hers!
She believed she had already practiced diligently enough.

She spent almost every day in the Spirit Gathering Tower, and her cultivation time far exceeded that of most people.

Even so, the gap between her and Liang Yuan not only did not narrow, but actually widened!

How could she not be shocked?

Liang Yuan laughed and said, "You don't need to compare yourself to me. My special ability is rather unique."

Ding Yan fell silent. As one of Liang Yuan's closest people, she had naturally discovered the special nature of Liang Yuan's superpower long ago.

Even back when they were still in the Midu Garden building, everyone had already noticed this.

In the beginning, Liang Yuan claimed that he had mastered spatial abilities, which allowed him to store large amounts of food without worrying about it spoiling.

However, not long after, Liang Yuan demonstrated his immense strength, astonishing speed, superhuman physique, and so on.

These could never be the kind of boosts that spatial abilities could provide.

From that time on, Ding Yan and the others began to have some doubts about Liang Yuan's true supernatural abilities.

However, superpowers involve everyone's most confidential matters.

Even after she had become Liang Yuan's woman, she never asked him.

But everyone knows that Liang Yuan's special ability must be very special.

Even after arriving in Yangshan, Liang Yuan mastered more and more supernatural abilities.

Not only spatial abilities, but also mental, fire, earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of magical ability) and other abilities are all readily available to him.

To be honest, Ding Yan once thought that Liang Yuan could learn a variety of superpowers.

After hearing about Jin Shirong's 'copying' ability, she was almost certain that Liang Yuan also possessed such an ability.

But she still didn't ask.

This is the first time Liang Yuan has admitted to her that his special ability is unique.

Ding Yan glanced at Liang Yuan, then finally smiled and said, "Some people are destined to be extraordinary."

"When I first met you at Meidu Garden, I felt that you were different from others."

"Although you are a bit lecherous, you are cautious and careful, yet you have a strong sense of self-confidence."

"It seems that since I met you, your attitude towards the end of the world is not as desperate as others."

"Being by your side always gives me the feeling that you can overcome any difficulty."

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan smiled and said, "Really?"

“Yes, you may not know it yourself, but in the beginning, I was attracted by your temperament,” Ding Yan said earnestly.

Liang Yuan gently hugged her and laughed, "Oh, so you had your eye on me from the very beginning."

Ding Yan rolled her eyes at him, then whispered, "I actually regret it. I really should have run to your doorstep sooner. If I had met you before Yang Mei, would I be the most important person in your heart?"

"You are the most important person in my heart now."

"Alright, you might be able to fool Song Wen and Dong Yan with this kind of talk, but I know you too well. Yang Mei is your real treasure, isn't she?"

Liang Yuan looked at her seriously and said, "Each of you is the most important person in my heart. I can't do without any of you."

Ding Yan met his gaze and saw the seriousness in his eyes, which warmed her heart.

She then said, "Alright, alright, I believe you." "So, how long do you estimate it will take before you break through to the peak of gene recombination?"

Liang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Three months."

"Three months?"

Ding Yan was taken aback, finding it hard to believe.

"Why does it take so long? From 97% to 100%, there's only a 3% difference. Why does it take so long?"

Liang Yuan shook his head and said, "The further you progress in your cultivation, the more difficult it will become. You'll understand when you reach the later stages."

Ding Yan was speechless for a moment, then couldn't help but ask, "If it takes you this long, how long would it take me?"

"Once the gene recombination progress reaches over 90%, it becomes extremely difficult. A 1% increase per month is considered a relatively fast pace."

"Without training aids, it would be difficult to even achieve one percent in a month."

“With the help of gene detectors in the Spirit Gathering Tower, your speed is estimated to be able to increase by one percentage point per month.”

Ding Yan silently did the math and couldn't help but say, "Wouldn't it take ten months just to go from 90% to 100%?"

Liang Yuan nodded slightly: "It should be necessary."

Ding Yan couldn't help but exhale, feeling that the journey had been incredibly long.

"Is there a quick way to improve?"

Liang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I will find a way. I will ask the R&D department to devote some energy to researching new gene recombination-assisted cultivation equipment in the near future."

Ding Yan sighed and said, "How long will it take to research that?"

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "These things can't be rushed. You need to keep a calm mindset and take it one step at a time."

The two chatted back and forth, and Ding Yan finally realized the gap between herself and Liang Yuan.

However, upon learning that Liang Yuan had broken through gene recombination and entered the Star God realm, and was likely to leave Blue Star, she immediately became nervous again.

"Now that you've broken through to the Star God realm, you can no longer stay on Earth?"

Liang Yuan shook his head: "I don't know either. Jin Peng and Yin Yu said that."

"The two of them have survived from ancient times to the present day, so they are unlikely to be lying."

"And according to their analysis, this situation is indeed possible."

"Why?" Ding Yan asked quickly.

Liang Yuan then explained that the giant star beast needed to refine the planet's core to condense its own core.

Upon hearing this, Ding Yan immediately connected it to the core and brain of the floating island and the air island.

On second thought, these floating islands and drifting islands are very likely the result of the death of ancient cosmic behemoths and their subsequent attraction to Earth's gravity.

They were sucked into the blue planet from space, forming floating islands and air islands.

Therefore, after these star beasts die, they will form floating islands and air islands.

For humanity, the direction of our evolution is actually the direction of these floating islands beneath our feet.

Could future humans evolve into star beasts as large as floating islands?
She was utterly shocked, feeling her mind and soul shake.

"That's not right. If the floating islands are the remains of cosmic behemoths, why can they appear on Earth, and why can't you return once you cultivate into a cosmic behemoth and become a Star God?"

Liang Yuan shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but I guess it might be related to the core's abilities."

"The stronger the core, the larger the star beast's size and the stronger its gravitational field."

"Once it becomes strong enough, it may repel or attract the magnetic field of Earth."

"It's like two planets. If they get too close to each other, one of them will be pulled into the vicinity of the other. Either they will collide and be destroyed, or one of them will never be able to escape the gravitational field of the other planet and become its satellite."

Ding Yan thought about it carefully and asked, "Like the relationship between the moon and the blue planet?"

Liang Yuan thought for a moment and nodded, "More or less."

"Isn't that good too? At least the moon wasn't destroyed by Blue Star, was it?"

“But the moon can never appear on the surface of Earth, and the moon can never escape Earth’s gravity,” Liang Yuan said with a shake of his head.

Ding Yan also sighed; that was indeed the case.

However, another question popped into her head: "Right, does that mean that once I break through to the Star God realm, I can't revert to human form?"

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan frowned.

"Well... I don't know."

"Don't overthink it. Once you've perfected your gene recombination, the inherited information carried by your genes will answer everything."

"But if that time really comes, are you really willing to leave us? To wander the stars alone?" Ding Yan couldn't help but ask.

Liang Yuan shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I won't break through easily."

"What I need is the ability to leave Earth at any time, not the ability to leave Earth immediately."

"I won't leave until I find a perfect solution, don't worry."

Ding Yan smiled upon hearing this.

She thought for a moment and said, "In that case, if I am truly destined to become a Star God and cannot return, you will wait for me for a year, and I will also cultivate to become a Star God."

"It wouldn't be bad if we went into space together and became a couple of celestial heroes."

She laughed as she said this.

Liang Yuan laughed along with him, and, overcome with emotion, he went into the bedroom.
