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

Chapter 760 Ancient times relied on cultivation techniques, modern times rely on technology
An old house where a treasure.

Although Ling Yurong looks young, she has lived since ancient times. Although she has been asleep in between, her experience from ancient times is still very valuable in the present day.

Liang Yuan obtained a lot of crucial information from her.

There is now a clear concept of the next evolutionary stage of gene recombination.

"After unifying Linjiang City and stabilizing the floating island territory, I will devote all my time to cultivating gene recombination, and quickly improve my gene recombination to the level of 100%."

"I wonder if there are any more efficient ways to improve cultivation progress besides the psionic gene alert device that can assist in cultivation."

Liang Yuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly looked at Ling Yurong and asked, "In ancient times, did you have any methods to quickly accelerate the process of gene recombination?"

Ling Yurong nodded slightly: "Yes, and quite a lot."

Liang Yuan's eyes lit up immediately, and he asked, "What methods are there?"

"It mainly consists of various cultivation techniques."

Liang Yuan was taken aback, somewhat surprised: "Cultivation technique?"

This word was something he hadn't expected at all.

Since awakening their superpowers, Liang Yuan and his companions have been systematically absorbing the superpower energy in the world.

The only cultivation method is the Yangshan Gene Activation Method, a special method he found inside that ruler, and the principle is still the same as the runes.

Now that Ling Yurong had suddenly mentioned cultivation techniques to him, he felt as if he had come into contact with a fantasy world.

He became interested and immediately asked, "What are cultivation techniques?"

Ling Yurong explained, "In ancient times, people with superpowers generally experienced a significant increase in lifespan after awakening their abilities."

"Over countless days and nights, people gradually figured out ways to quickly enhance gene recombination, summarized some techniques, and finally refined various kinds of techniques."

"The reason there are so many different cultivation methods is mainly because everyone's genetic map is different, so different methods are needed to improve the progress of cultivation."

“Cultivation techniques are not universal. For example, water-attribute cultivation techniques created by water-attribute ability users can only be practiced by people with the corresponding genetic map.”

"Others who try to cultivate this technique will not succeed; they might even suffer from qi deviation."

"Take me for example. I cultivate the [Northern Darkness Frozen Ruins True Scripture]. This technique is only for ice-attribute ability users. After cultivating it, the ice-attribute genes in our bodies will show a more active reaction."

"In the future, when we perform gene recombination, we will only need to select from these highly active genes."

"Of course, there are also extremely powerful top-tier techniques that can directly enhance mental strength and make your senses more acute."

"Some people also use rune arrays to force a certain type of gene in their body to become active, thereby accelerating the process of gene recombination and increasing the success rate of gene recombination."

"There are also some more extreme cultivation methods that directly utilize extreme environments to stimulate the genes in the body, or to make one's energy highly concentrated and enter a state of absolute focus."

"In our time, we didn't have as much technology as you do now, so we could only cultivate using these methods."

After listening, Liang Yuan felt that these methods of improvement were indeed a direction, though he had never thought of them before.

However, each era has its own characteristics.

In Ling Yurong's era, people used cultivation techniques to accelerate gene recombination, while people in this era are more adept at using technological means to accelerate gene recombination.

However, in essence, it is still the same.

All of these methods involve finding a specific type of gene in the human body and distinguishing it from other miscellaneous genes, thereby increasing the success rate of gene recombination.

The only difference is the method used.

The ancients used physical exercises, while modern people use technology.

Of course, there are definitely differences between them.

The cultivation methods of ancient supernatural beings were only suitable for their own practice, and each person even had their own unique method.

These techniques are closely related to the genome map.

Different gene maps require different techniques.

In contrast, technological means have a much wider range of applications.

For example, the spiritual energy gene warning device in Yangshan can be cultivated not only by Liang Yuan, but by everyone in Yangshan.

This is the advantage of technology.

"I wonder if the system has any gene-based cultivation techniques like the one Ling Yurong mentioned."

Liang Yuan thought to himself, glancing at his system panel again, where his points had once again reached a million.

However, he had already checked before the million points were available, and there were no gene recombination-related cultivation techniques among the lottery items in this range.

"Let's save up some more points, and when we have more, let's see if we can find a gene cultivation technique suitable for the [Ever-Changing Demon Ape]."

"Let's use the [Psionic Gene Alert Device] for now."

At this moment, Ling Yurong suddenly asked, "Mr. Liang, do you need a cultivation technique?"

Liang Yuan looked at her and asked, "Of course, do you have one?"

"Before I fell into slumber, it was already the last generation of superhumans. The flood had receded, and the galaxy in the sky had disappeared."

"The supernatural energy has gradually dried up along with the disappearance of the galaxy."

"At that time, many ancient cultivation methods were discovered."

"It's a pity that there's no supernatural energy. Even if there were a cultivation technique, it would be impossible to awaken supernatural abilities."

“I took a look at it at the time and collected quite a few cultivation techniques. If you need them, I will write them down for you later.”

Liang Yuan was immediately delighted and asked, "What types of cultivation techniques are there?"

"I've collected mostly cultivation techniques based on the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. I also have some techniques based on strength and speed. Which type would you like, Mr. Liang?"

Just as Liang Yuan was about to say that he needed the [Hundred Transformations Demon Ape] gene technique, he suddenly became wary.

His genetic makeup, as revealed to the outside world, is ever-changing and encompasses all five elements.

Many people can't figure out his gene type, let alone what his major in gene mapping is.

If Ling Yurong suddenly asked this question, wouldn't he be about to reveal the secret of the [Hundred Transformations Demon Ape] genetic map?
In Liang Yuan's mind, the existence of the system was his biggest secret. The [Ever-Changing Demon Ape] genetic map was his second biggest secret.

Because once the genetic map of a superhuman is figured out, they are very likely to be targeted by enemies.

Although the [Ever-Changing Demon Ape] is mainly about change, its main feature is its ever-changing nature, making it highly adaptable and difficult to counter.

However, Liang Yuan still did not want to reveal his genetic map casually.

He thought for a moment and said, "Write down all the cultivation techniques you know. There are so many people with supernatural abilities in Yangshan, there should be quite a few who need them."

A hint of disappointment flashed in Ling Yurong's eyes, but she simply nodded.

She may not have wanted to harm Liang Yuan; she was simply curious about what Liang Yuan's genetic map was.

She had lived for so long and seen all sorts of genetic maps, but she had never seen a superhuman like Liang Yuan who possessed so many genetic forms.

Unfortunately, Liang Yuan was too wary. Even though she had already been implanted with a soul restraint talisman, Liang Yuan still had no defenses against her.

With the Soul Restraint Talisman in place, she would never have the thought of harming Liang Yuan.

The gunfire behind them gradually subsided, and soon after, Zhang Yujiang, covered in blood, appeared behind Liang Yuan.

"Mr. Liang, everything has been taken care of."

Liang Yuan nodded and asked, "Did you encounter resistance?"

"Yes, there were a few old geezers who were stubborn and refused to let go of their little bit of power, so I had no choice but to kill them."

"These old guys have some skills in managing their subordinates. Those guys tried to fight back before they died, but it was all in vain."

Liang Yuan nodded slightly. With Zhang Yujiang's strength, he naturally posed no threat to him, but to the people on the ark, he was a true master.

"Well done. Clean up all the troublemakers as soon as possible."

"Once we arrive at Cloud Mist Island, I will have you make the handover with the people from Yangshan."

"clear."

The Ark sped forward and returned to Cloud Mist Island a dozen minutes later.

On Cloud Mist Island, the original troops had been sent to Mi Yuan Rainforest and Yellow Earth Divine Plain.

The residents of Huangtu Shenyuan and Miyuan Rainforest were sent here.

Ding Yan, Shi Haizhu, and others are arranging related matters.

As the ark arrived, Ding Yan, Shi Haizhu, Feng Jiangong, and the others immediately came out to greet it.

Ding Yan flew over and, upon seeing Liang Yuan, immediately asked, "How did it go? Did you catch Zhang Yujiang?"

Liang Yuan smiled, pointed to Zhang Yujiang in military uniform on the deck not far away, and said, "That's him."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yan looked at Zhang Yujiang and saw him standing respectfully to the side, head bowed and eyes lowered. She couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Has he... surrendered?"

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "Yes, the core has been handed over. This Cloud Mist Island will be the fifth floating island of our Yangshan Refuge!"

Ding Yan laughed immediately: "From now on, the entire Linjiang area will only have our Yangshan Refuge."

Liang Yuan also laughed and said, "Unifying Linjiang City is only the first step. Next, we should focus on our own development and not expand our territory too quickly."

"That's exactly what I was thinking. Defending our territory in Linjiang is the most urgent task. We have too few people. The current territory is enough for our people to develop."

"Right now, the most urgent task is to occupy more floating islands and gain air superiority as soon as possible," Ding Yan said.

Liang Yuan nodded slightly; Ding Yan's thoughts coincided with his.

He also had this plan: "No rush. Sprout Company and Kerry Technology Company suffered heavy losses this time, and it is unlikely that they will attack us again in a short period of time."

"First, we need to deal with the population arrangements. Next, I need to take a group of people to Flying Manta Island to focus on developing the air force program."

"In addition, the researchers that Zhang Yujiang took away have also been brought back by me. I need our R&D department to connect with these people immediately and digest the military's scientific and technological achievements as soon as possible."

Every victory brings a bountiful harvest, but it also takes time to digest the spoils.

Liang Yuan did not participate in the subsequent events and handed them all over to Shi Haizhu and his team to handle.

At this moment, Feng Jiangong walked over and said, "Mr. Liang, I would like to go and have a chat with Zhang Yujiang."

Liang Yuan glanced at Zhang Yujiang and said, "Go, he has already surrendered."

Feng Jiangong nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I won't do anything."

He walked up to Zhang Yujiang, who looked up at him.

The two men looked at each other, and Zhang Yujiang, looking somewhat embarrassed, sighed and said, "Go ahead and curse if you want."

Feng Jiangong shook his head slightly and said, "Everyone has their own ambitions. When I chose to give up Yunwu Island and join Yangshan, you didn't say anything. So what right do I have to criticize you?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yujiang felt a pang of sadness and said, "But I abandoned everyone else and took all the equipment and supplies with me."

Feng Jiangong nodded and said, "You really deserve to be scolded for this. When I left, I clearly told you to take good care of these old buddies."

Zhang Yujiang sighed and said, "These people are all like you, single-minded. If I told them to give up Cloud Mist Island, they would probably spread the word immediately."

"The Ark is only so big; it can't hold everyone."

"I have to make choices."

Feng Jiangong leaned against the ship's railing and sighed, "Do you remember when the great flood broke out and the army was in chaos? At that time, you were the first one to come to me."

“You said back then that we can’t be in chaos, because if we are in chaos, the whole of Linjiang will be in chaos.”

“You said that the two of us should immediately suppress the rebellion and help everyone get through the crisis. We are the people’s soldiers.”

Zhang Yujiang remained silent, filled with shame. After a long while, he sighed, "I have let everyone down, and I have let down our faith."

Feng Jiangong shook his head, patted Zhang Yujiang on the shoulder, and laughed: "It's not too late. Follow Mr. Liang."

“He is a trustworthy person; he can do things that we cannot.”

"At least so far, he's done better than us, hasn't he?"
