Lin Hao got up and walked to the center of the laboratory, where a platform made of various special metals was placed. The platform was covered with fine patterns and emitted faint energy fluctuations.
This is the workbench he brought to assist in analyzing biological genome maps.
However, there is currently no research material available.
Just then, a slight commotion arose outside the mansion.
Lin Hao raised an eyebrow, walked to the window and looked out. He saw several small birds, about the size of a palm and covered with green scales, chirping on the branches of a tree in the courtyard.
Their feathers shimmered with an unusual luster in the sunlight, seemingly possessing the characteristics of some kind of plant.
"This is... a Wood Feather Sparrow?"
A hint of curiosity flashed in Lin Hao's eyes.
He had seen records of this special life form in the literature. They were a relatively common type of small, special life form on Zijing Island, which lived by absorbing the energy of plants. They were docile and non-aggressive.
This is another wonder of the Ancestral Mystic Realm; not all special life forms will embark on the path of cultivation.
There are extraordinary life forms that defy the heavens, such as the World Tree, the Nine Nether Sea, and the Cold Whale, as well as some weak species that are similar to endangered animals that were once protected on Earth.
They may have certain genetic and cultivation potential, but their intelligence is low.
Lin Hao did not rashly go out to disturb them. This was also an unspoken rule of the Ancestral Mystic Realm, where weak and special life forms received the best treatment according to the rules.
But these woodfinch birds were clearly attracted by him...
Not long after, a woodfinch flew into the room, landed on his shoulder, and pecked at him curiously.
It seems his talent is indeed quite attractive to species that haven't yet developed intelligence...
This is how beast tides occur on Earth, and it is now happening in the Mystic Realm of Ancestral Gods.
Seeing this, the other woodfinch birds flew over, and in an instant, Lin Hao's shoulders and hair became their human-shaped nest, chirping and making quite a scene.
Lin Hao maintained a certain level of tolerance towards small animals. After all, he didn't have detailed information about the Ancestral Mystic Realm. He only vaguely remembered that many special creatures that looked like wild animals were actually big shots.
For example, the cold whale...
The first woodfinch to fly over saw so many companions competing with it, so it shed a green feather from its body, picked it up, and carried it to Lin Hao's hand.
"Little one, is this a gift for me?"
Lin Hao didn't care whether the little guy understood or not, and muttered to himself.
"Chirp...chirp..."
Seeing Lin Hao pick up the feather with his other hand, the little guy chirped happily in Lin Hao's hand.
"In that case, I can't just take your feathers for nothing..."
As Lin Hao muttered to himself, an extremely pure water-based primordial power flowed into the little wooden sparrow's body.
Then, as if it were drunk, the little wooden sparrow stumbled and flew to the side, unable to hold on any longer, and fell fast asleep.
At this moment, the wooden sparrows on Lin Hao's shoulders offered up their feathers, which Lin Hao accepted without hesitation. Afterwards, the room was filled with wooden sparrows.
Lin Hao didn't disturb them, and took a large handful of feathers and went straight to the laboratory inside.
With in-depth analysis of sufficient feather samples, the genetic map of the Woodfinch has become increasingly clear.
"It seems I don't actually need to fight to become stronger..."
Lin Hao nodded in satisfaction, "It's a pity there are too few wild special life forms on Zijing Island, but we can go and explore the secret realm."
Within the Ancestral God Cult, there are four important places: the World of Glory, the Land of Inheritance, the Land of Treasure, and the Land of Secrets.
He has already been to the place of inheritance, so there's no need to say more.
According to the information he obtained, Glory World is actually a very basic version of a virtual universe used for combat and acquiring Glory Points.
The so-called Glory Points are the credentials needed to go to the Land of Inheritance.
For every 100 Glory Points, one can receive a legacy.
There's no rush.
The core reason he became stronger was fundamentally different from Luo Feng's; the so-called number of inheritances didn't hold much appeal for him.
The Land of Treasures is a collection of treasures left behind by numerous beast gods, guardian beast gods, and many super strong individuals, containing a vast amount of treasures.
The Seven Sword Kings of the human race obtained treasures from them.
There, there are endless treasures.
There are quite a few treasures, even those at the level of supreme treasures.
The most interesting thing is that no one knows the conditions for unlocking those treasures.
You might stumble upon a treasure that meets the criteria just by wandering around, and if you're lucky, you might even get a priceless artifact.
Therefore, the land of treasures attracted a large number of immortal kings and even cosmic venerables.
Lin Hao initially planned to explore the treasure land next.
But the gift from the Wood Sparrow made him change his mind.
The secret realm is extremely dangerous, and may contain top-tier special life forms such as the World Tree and the Endless Dark Sea.
So, he has arrived in the secret realm!
Chapter 118 A New Mistress Has Appeared! (Seeking monthly votes and subscriptions!)
"I'll be back as soon as I go."
Lin Hao ruffled the top of her alluring hair. "Don't wander off. Stay on Purple Thorn Island and wait for me."
She tiptoed gracefully and lightly kissed his lips: "Mmm, be very careful."
Feeling the tender kiss from the alluring, morphing monster, Lin Hao got goosebumps all over his body.
Form is emptiness, emptiness is form. Sacrificing appearances and studying strange and unique life forms might not be a bad idea.
Lin Hao shook his head to shake off these terrible thoughts, stepped into the square in front of the island lord's palace, and with one step, he went straight into the fountain water curtain on the right and was teleported to the secret realm.
The moment they emerged from a fountain in the void, they were enveloped by a wild and powerful aura.
Unlike the normal celestial bodies in the outside universe, the void in the Ancestral Mystic Realm contains irregular celestial bodies, or seemingly beautiful and magical scenes such as a lake dotted with islands or a series of undulating mountain ranges.
A real crisis is lurking.
This was still the deepest part of the Ancestral Mystic Realm where the inheritors had been transported, a region with very little danger.
"It was indeed dangerous."
Lin Hao teleported away from the primeval jungle enveloped in blood-red vines.
The unique life forms here have long since transcended the category of "animals"—
The tree trunks open mouths full of fangs, fallen leaves transform into flying insects that devour energy, and even the soil harbors parasitic roots that entangle their prey.
Instead of venturing deeper, he chose a relatively quiet valley to set up camp.
A deep roar of beasts echoed from the depths of the valley. Fist-sized glowing beetles were embedded in the rock walls. Lin Hao took one down and placed it in his palm. The beetle obediently rubbed its antennae against his fingertips.
"Let's start with you."
In one month, Lin Hao's gene map database added data on 73 different types of life forms, of which 10 should be considered special life forms.
Not all gadgets will voluntarily provide some of their materials for research like the Wooden Feather Sparrow.
At this point, we must begin to address the issue of sustainable resource depletion.
They would take a part of the other person's body for research, and then use the power of the water element to heal and regenerate the other person.
"interesting."
A glint of light flashed in Lin Hao's eyes.
This is why he chose to "take it slow"—the genes of ordinary life may seem mundane, but they contain the underlying codes of the universe's evolution. By accumulating little by little, they can piece together laws that even the master of the universe may not know.
time flies.
For over two thousand years, Lin Hao has specifically chosen remote and sparsely populated places, essentially acting as a garbage collector.
However, there was no conflict with other inheritors.
The secret realm is indeed full of perilous places, and Lin Hao has already activated the state of feigned death countless times.
It's not that he's bad at it; if he wanted to, he could have easily dodged it.
Having tasted the sweetness of the Ice God General's inheritance, he always wanted to try it again. However, after dying too many times and realizing it was a complete waste of time, he stopped trying to cool down and directly used the [Space Management Master] to fly his corpse.
Given his reaction, he could naturally break free of the fake death state instantly, so he wouldn't actually fly back with a corpse and scare any of the older women.
Of course, the number of times I could trigger a fake death was countless. It was purely because I was homesick later on. Since I was going to use a skill to go back anyway, I might as well find a dangerous place to try my luck. Once I triggered a fake death, I would fly away.
His strength, comparable to that of a king, was indeed insufficient in the Ancestral Mystic Realm; there wasn't a single marked dangerous place he could withstand.
The good news is that the gene library data is steadily increasing, and he is now able to steadily construct gene structures up to 7000 times larger.
The bad news is that the basic genetic map of life is basically useless now, and the path of accumulating small amounts into large ones is completely cut off.
It seems that without going out and having fun, you won't find the perfect genetic level by just staying put and picking up trash.
It's time to go and have some real adventure in dangerous places!
Lin Hao carefully considered the choice of destination.
The Ancestral Mystic Realm is actually quite interesting; the dangerous places are actually the homes of many big shots in the Ancestral God Cult.
I don't know what they were thinking, treating their own home as a dangerous place and letting the inheritors wreak havoc...
For example, the most famous Nine Netherworld Space-Time is just a group of inheritors exploring the body of the Lord of the Nine Netherworld.
They go and take branches and leaves from the World Tree, not hesitating to dismantle the bodies of its juniors right in front of the ancestral tree.
There was also a waterfall that Lin Hao had seen before. Even a Universe Venerable would freeze instantly if he got wet, his life imprint would completely collapse, and he would die directly.
He had some understanding of the principles of water and air fusion, so he went to try taking a shower at a waterfall, and ended up dying as a result!
This added a glorious chapter to his countless feigned deaths and flying corpses.
The enormous icy pool beneath this waterfall is now the home of the Lord of the Cold Whale, and will later become the home of the True God of the Cold Whale.
Therefore, obtaining those special life materials with high levels of life genes is a long and arduous task.
