Genesis: Starting with Growing Mushrooms

Chapter 101 The New Three-Choice Talent
In short, it’s just one sentence.

【Ultimate Wisdom】is so awesome!
As various ingredients for the mushroom soup were continuously added and the broth was simmered repeatedly, Liu Jun acquired more and more of the special mushrooms.

And this powerful force.

It's just the beginning.

Who knows what new mushroom talents will appear next?
"Painful, yet pleasurable!"

"Crisis and opportunity coexist!"

"Each time you choose one of three options, if you are not destroyed, you will break through a small level of civilization!"

Liu Jun's gaze fell on the progress bar again.

[Progress bar: 97%]

Coming soon.

He suddenly felt flustered and confused.

I wonder what kind of thing it will be this time?

Hopefully, this will save people some trouble.

It seems that the most basic five-element mushroom attributes have all been revealed, and it's likely that the ones that appear later will be more unusual.

Even advanced versions of various talents.

Or perhaps it's an infection skill tree that was previously unactivated, with all sorts of strange ways to increase infection capabilities.

The infectivity of mushrooms these days is already a bit exaggerated.

If they release an augmented mushroom that amplifies infection, well, that's just laughable!
The world really does seem to be on the verge of collapse all the time.

Inside the Duke's mansion, Liu Jun kept planning for the future.

"God, are you worried?"

The amber swallowtail butterfly suddenly seemed puzzled. "Although the world reveres you as a mysterious God, don't you want to pay attention to this era?"

Liu Jun grabbed the little butterfly, held it in his arms, and gently stroked it.

"In his position, seek his position."

“I usurped the position of God from Surya and took away the divine objects, which is equivalent to weakening their original power.”

"And you should know just how powerful this divine artifact is."

“I took it, so naturally I must bear the chain reaction it caused, and shoulder the responsibility of leading my own faction as a god, so that this era will not collapse because I stole the power.”

Liu Jun explained patiently.

Originally, there were three choices, but I chose one myself, and the balance was just right.

But last time, when I had to choose one out of three, I took two, which was a bit too much.

If I am too greedy and cause the collapse of this mushroom soup world, then I will have nowhere to cry.

To exhaust the resources of a fish farm is a grave mistake.

"So that's it."

The amber swallowtail butterfly looked as if it had just realized something.

She took out a monocle and held it to her eyes, striking a pose of a learned scholar, as if she were a master of drama.

"You have always said that everything in the world is balanced, with gains and losses. Now that you have taken the power of the times, you should naturally return that power to the times."

"Blessed are the people on earth! Your gospel will be spread throughout the world!"

"If you personally descend to the mortal realm and become a deity of this era, you can at least lead the people through the next, or even several, disasters."

"Only after you have repaid this debt of karma will you return to the tree and let them face the trials alone once again."

What a load of good fortune!

Liu Jun couldn't help but sigh.

I'm not really "mysterious," and I don't have the talent to study the "mysterious."

Even as God, I am still just a figurehead.

They are good at maintaining the status quo, but not good at pioneering new ventures.

"Researching it is impossible; I would never have that mysterious talent to do it in my entire life."

"If I, this false God, want to help this era, I can only continue to be a thief and work even harder to steal things to support you."

Liu Jun was speechless. "The burden of reputation."

What is all this about?

Things obtained through prostitution are ultimately unreliable.

But then he suddenly remembered Surya.

"This old man is a true mysterious genius, 100% compatible. Even if we don't return the mushrooms to him, bringing them back and cultivating them would be a huge profit."

"Let him bear the responsibility of God."

three days later.

News of the investigation came back.

After rescuing his daughter, the old man Suliye finally entered his twilight years.

He spent more than ten years with his daughter and died of old age.

He already had a limp, and in his youth, as a junior general in the angel army, he fought against dragons, resulting in numerous hidden injuries, which meant his lifespan was already short.

"You're going to die now?"

"You should have been the protagonist of this era."

Liu Jun was somewhat dazed upon hearing the news, but quickly regained his composure.
"That's true! He was about to die of old age at that time, and without the divine object, he naturally couldn't live a second life."

"No matter how talented a genius is, if they don't have the opportunity to rise to prominence, they can only grow old and die like an ordinary person."

Liu Jun sighed, but felt little remorse.

[The Ultimate Wisdom] This mushroom, he can't possibly release it.

but.

There is something quite interesting.

The daughter that Surrey bravely fought the dragon to save, the weaver who was forced to weave clothes day and night, is now in the Grand Duke's mansion.

It was Maria, the disciple Rella had just brought back.

She seemed to have inherited some of her father's mysterious affinity, and was chosen by Ella during her travels across the land and brought back.

Over the years, Rella has traveled all over the world, bringing back two children with the most mysterious and exceptional talents.

One was Thetis, the daughter of the sea goddess.

One was Surya's child, Maria.

of course.

The earth is so vast, there are naturally male geniuses as well.

However, the male disciples all had some unique thoughts about the most beautiful woman in the world, the Valkyrie Rella.

and so.

Rella only accepts female disciples.

Even Liu Jun couldn't help but complain: "They all want to become masters, is it because they're from the same lineage?"

well.

The angel race has a very open attitude towards love.

The Grand Duke's Palace.

Liu Jun instructed the kitchen to prepare a lavish dinner to entertain the guests.

Then, in the evening, he invited Rella over for dinner. At the dinner table, Archmage Levi spoke up: "How have you been lately? Is there any possibility of you merging with the Wind God's artifact?"

"There is no possibility of integration."

Rella came up behind Liu Jun and gently massaged his shoulders.

Six pairs of soft, snow-white wings behind him enveloped Liu Jun's entire body, gently massaging it.

As she massaged him, she said:

"Although my brother also suggested that I try the wind element, I don't have the aptitude for it. It's best to let those wind element geniuses have it."

"The wind is free."

"But I do not yearn for freedom."

"I just want to stay in the Duke's mansion, and I just want to be by your side."

Liu Jun sighed.

She was well aware of the meaning behind her words and actions.

Of the brother and sister, Rex became a god, but Rella had no chance of becoming a god.

"Speaking of wind artifacts, we angels don't have the wind magic inheritance from the dragons, which is why we've only just begun to study them."

"Now we angels are establishing wind magic guilds in various cities."

"Although we have cultivated a few geniuses who are good at wind-type magic, they are just getting started. It will probably take some time before they can become gods."

"It's probably not going to be the next Trial of the Gods."

The implication is obvious.

In other words, the next divine trial will be faced by the God of Light, Rex, alone.

"I brought two new disciples with me to keep you company."

Rella called Maria over and began to explain her background.
"I met the legendary messenger of the gods, Nachi, in a seaside city."

"He was also traveling the world and introduced me to Maria, who was selling matches."

Liu Jun frowned slightly upon hearing this.

I wonder what Xu Changsheng is up to.

Instead of doing a proper job, he travels around everywhere.

Is this an experiment with new magic, a test?

After all, those who live long lives always like to teach others.

Otherwise, how will I show off in the future, saying that so-and-so was my disciple in history, or so-and-so was my close friend?

Instead of updating his books, this guy comes here to play!

This guy is really neglecting his duties.

Liu Jun, who was neglecting his duties and playing games, was completely unaware of his own shortcomings.

In his view, spending his days in the "Public Knowledge Sea" is like working hard to earn money and support his world; this is his job.

Rella showed a hint of admiration.
“Nachi is indeed the divine messenger of the Cangwu Tree. He is very powerful. He taught Maria a dream magic.”

"Maria has a strong affinity for both fire and mystery magic, and she practices both types of magic. The matches she sold back then seemed to contain a beautiful illusion."

"She lit the match again and again, and the flames burst forth with mystery, allowing the guests to see the desires in their hearts."

Liu Jun raised an eyebrow.

The fairy tale, the little match girl?

In fact, Maria did not sell matches because she was short of money after her father left.

Instead, he was a magician full of ideals who researched the Mind Fire magic series.

"Combined magic?"

Liu Jun smiled.

Rella said, "The idea of ​​composite magic came from my brother and me. As the God of Light, he also cultivates composite magic that combines light and mystery."

"After I leave, my two disciples will follow you."

Rella looked pitiful, her eyes fixed on the archmage Li Wei before her.

Liu Jun wasn't buying her little pity act. "Focus on your cultivation. Once you achieve immortality, you'll naturally have the opportunity to be with me."

"You're only at the third rank now. If you break through to the fourth rank, why worry about your lifespan?"

A third-tier expert is merely a strongman in one city.

The fourth tier is the true overlord of this era.

Rella sighed, "Fourth tier, that's very difficult for me."

A fourth-tier intelligent god is difficult for anyone to achieve.

1. A born saint, like a hot carp, is almost certain to reach the fourth level.

2. By fusing with divine objects and borrowing their power, one can elevate the upper limit of their life level, just like Liu Jun.

Otherwise, the probability of other ordinary third-order beings breaking through to the fourth order is less than 1%.

Rella didn't consider herself one of the lucky ones.

Her physical aptitude was there, and she had fully felt that insurmountable physical bottleneck.

Next, Liu Jun listened to Ruila tell all sorts of interesting travel stories.

"I met a ranger named Swift Legs, who was born with superhuman legs. He was running around searching for an antidote to save a poisoned tribe."

"I met a princess who lived in a castle. She was a visionary who looked out over the world every day from the castle."

Liu Jun enjoyed the full-body massage while listening to the story.

This era is very interesting.

Like Thoth, so that all living beings on earth may have his bloodline and be infected by his holy body.

One in a million lives has a saintly organ.

This led to the emergence of many geniuses, those with incredible speed, keen eyesight, and super hearing.

However, they inherited the bloodline of this saint's body, and also inherited several of the vital points of Xiangdomo.

As Liu Jun listened to the fascinating adventure stories of the great hero Rella, he could only think to himself:

"Perhaps one day, we can create a new, perfect saintly body as the foundational template for the cultivation of flesh and blood in this era."

But not now.

The miracle of the Holy Body of Eden is rare and difficult to replicate.

Right now, our focus should be on figuring out the extraordinary system and surviving each divine calamity.

For now, this basic template of a saint's body is sufficient!
Based on this, the concept of flesh and blood has been able to develop.

in a blink.

Half a month has passed.

The sky above the entire earth suddenly became oppressive.

"They've arrived?"

In an instant, all the great mages of the Holy Empire looked up, their expressions a complex mix of shock and excitement.

They all know what this means!
Wow!
The round sky seemed to have had its lid lifted from a pot.

The vast clouds and mist were churning, and three mysterious beams of light descended from the sky.

In the sky, a majestic and vast figure overlooks the world below, as if examining its own bowls and basins, preparing to choose something.
