Chapter 577: Time Flies



Although Luo Yuan may have been able to create life from atoms by just using his hands, they were merely simple organisms.

He could do nothing to a level-9 space creature.

To a creature at this level, each and every one of its cells carried a strong imprint of its will. Its cells were like individual living entities and if they were to be classified as a kind of energy, its cells would be entirely made out of energy and atoms. For that reason alone, there would not be any conventional means to replicate those cells.

It was not that humans had never tried to clone these mysterious creatures. There were countless experiments that were carried out. Alas, they were all in vain as they all ended in failure. It was either due to a genetic breakdown in the embryo that caused it to turn into pus, or it would be a degeneration of the blood vessels.

Initially, Luo Yuan was unable to use his own cells to begin the cloning process. This was due to an insufficient imprint of his will on his cells. At that time, the will imprinted in his cells was not even powerful enough for level-8 mutated beasts, let alone interstellar beasts.

That alone was reason enough not for him to consider mass cloning these creatures.

However, Luo Yuan would still have other means to obtain more energy cores even if it was impossible for him to clone them.

Immediately, he entered a state of transcendence as his body began to grow with a flickering light. The powerful energy waves coming off of his body was causing the entire micro-universe to slightly tremble. The micro-universe was acting as Luo Yuan’s experimental lab so it was relatively small — its radius was only about a hundred kilometers wide. Only from the leakage of fourth-dimensional energy, the entire micro-universe went into turmoil.

Fortunately, this turmoil was far from being able to crush the entire micro-universe. Although it was absorbing the leaked fourth-dimensional energy, the micro-universe merely expanded a little.

Luo Yuan paid no heed to the changes occurring in the micro-universe. Instead, he stared at the dimensional sphere on his palm, his will searching deep within it as it covered each and every corner until it found the interstellar creature’s body. It was then that, Luo Yuan could feel a slight resistance along a slight amount of force coming from it.

The creature was now as fragile as a soap bubble. All it required was Luo Yuan’s gentle mind reading and it would be easily crushed as its consciousness would have slipped away from the atoms.

To this poor interstellar creature, it was undoubtedly devastating. The structure of its consciousness would be instantly blown away and be fully eradicated along with the imprint of its will on its cells.

However, Luo Yuan would not do such a thing. Intead, his movement became even more delicate as he gently touched the thin protective layer of will.

Throughout the process, the wave of Luo Yuan’s will was rapidly calibrating. Before even a hundred nanoseconds had passed, the layer of resistance had instantly disappeared. The wavelength of Luo Yuan’s will was now the same as the interstellar beast’s, and its body was no longer fortified.

A huge amount of unfamiliar memories began to appear within Luo Yuan’s mind. These were the memories of the interstellar beast.

At the end of its memories, it all led back to a mutated earthworm. It had hidden itself within the soil in a forest. By receiving nourishment and nutrients from the woods as well as the dead animals, it had grown rapidly.

Eventually, it developed four limbs and its head evolved into a ferocious giant mouth. By then, it was no longer able to be satisfied from plant-based nutrients and began to consume mutated beasts. As time passed, it steadily climbed from the bottom of the food chain to reach the top from initially being at the very bottom.

Throughout it’s growth, it had been encircled by humans multiple times. Judging by its memories, it was probably situated in a rainforest somewhere in Africa because of the darker skin the humans had in its memories. During that time, the apocalypse had probably just began.

After a while, the forces against it grew stronger and resulted in it getting grievously injured before it left the land and entered the ocean.

This was similar to letting fish into water with plenty of food. It allowed the creature’s body to continuously grow and gradually, it evolved into a giant aquatic beast.

Countless memories flashed through Luo Yuan’s mind. The amount memories it had from these past few decades were exceptionally large. However, to Luo Yuan who had been accepting an astronomical amount of information at almost all times, the rate this information was flowing into him was like an insignificant water drop in the ocean. It could not even start a wave.

At that moment, Luo Yuan could instantly take over the interstellar creature’s consciousness if he willed it, allowing the giant beast to turn into his secondary body.

The only thing was that... This action would be meaningless to him.

He was like a neutral bystander. By forecasting images and observing the giant beast along with its surroundings at a radius of about ten kilometers or so, the changes in every atom for the next ten seconds would be present to him.

This was already the apex of the brain’s abilities as it calculated these at its utmost potential. Within the ten kilometer radius, countless atoms were constantly moving in a random pattern. Each and every atom was moving reactively so no pattern could be observed.

Fortuantely, he would not need to attempt that since his ability to predict the future already provided him with the results for the coming twelve seconds.

This was a talent that came naturally to him after his brain entered the fourth dimension. All he needed to do was to remember the future position of every atom after those twelve seconds while instantaneously changing the position of the atoms to how they should be twelve seconds later (the future he predicted). There was no margin for error. Even if the difference was in the scale of a hundred millionths, the giant beast could potentially die.

His brain was calculating in light speed as it burned a huge sum of energy while glowing brightly.

Luo Yuan used his predictive abilities tens of thousands of times. Finally he was certain. In the next moment, time within the giant beast’s body was seemingly jumping front and back as the changes in the first eleven seconds disappeared.

The entire process was completed in only a hundred thousandth of a second and the beast did not even feel anything out of the ordinary. The dying state it had been in has caused its reaction to slow down to outside stimulus.

Luo Yuan observed it’s condition, and upon seeing that it was fine, he felt relieved and continued the procedure.

Since Luo Yuan’s prediction of the future was a continuous process, a continuous flow of predictive images would instantly appear immediately after the giant beast’s atoms were shifted to the desired state by Luo Yuan. This allowed him to continue the operation.

As the time passed, time within the giant beast’s body was moving at a speed that was tens of thousands of times faster than regular time.

In the first one or two seconds, there was nothing noticeable.

However, when thirty seconds had passed, the beast began to have a minor wiggle.

When a minute had passed, the giant beast began to swallow the liquid hydrogen.

After three minutes, it started swimming everywhere. Its skin had gradually became smooth and reflective.

After ten minutes, a dim weak blue light reappeared on its skin, and its movement had become much smoother.

Time slowly passed. It was only until half an hour later when Luo Yuan’s mental state was close to exhaustion that he finally stopped.

A powerful will was something he relied on to ensure the information he had was perfect. If unnecessary, he would never exhaust his will.

At that moment, the interstellar creature began to swim in various directions in terror. The seemingly unknown changes in its body and its environment caused it great unease.

Luo Yuan could instantly guess the reason this happened. After all, time did not really accelerate. It was he who was controlling the changes in the atoms but he could not change the memories of its consciousness. In this case, its consciousness had already disassociated from the shackles of its brain and had its own memory.

Within the brain, memory was a continuous thing. Although six or seven years seemed to have passed, the conscious memory would only have registered half an hour of time to have passed. The difference in the physical and conscious memory clashed with one another, causing distress on the interstellar beast.

However, Luo Yuan had no qualms with this and could not care less about its mental health.

A smile suddenly flashed on his face. He had noticed that within the creature’s body, an energy core at the size of a soybean had already been formed.

Perhaps, this process had to be done a few more times before the core could be harvested.
