Genesis: Starting with Growing Mushrooms

Chapter 221 Outbreak, the Strange Sixth Order

The Butterfly Clan, 3275.

The all-new version of the Wisdom Disaster has officially launched.

The Queen of Wisdom was born.

"I will gather three kinds of wisdom to form the bottom line of civilization!"

At that moment, she became the most foolish being among humans.

The Goddess of Abundance spoke:
"I will send down four kinds of propagation, so that there will be no obstruction for anything."

The world is now in perfect harmony.

The wise angels are the most foolish beings in their civilization, and all of humanity is entering a new era.

The Butterfly Clan, 3276.

The victorious progenitor of humanity ruled the world, obtained magical artifacts, and began his ascent to the top:
"I will use magic to forge a new golden scale and build a magical network platform for everyone to communicate!"

On this day, the second god besides the Angel Queen descended to earth on the Cangwu Tree; it was none other than the Alchemy God, Butterfly Red Fungus.

"I will unleash alchemy, so that the real and the illusory may circulate between heaven and earth."

He caused the butterfly race to form cocoons, increasing his alchemical power and giving rise to various alchemical life forms.

He called this technique: the art of life alchemy.

The wisdom of angels.

The spread of abundance.

The Alchemy of the Butterfly Clan.

Human magic.

The four supreme gods began to join forces to drive the era forward.

A new era has begun.

It is the era of alchemical mythology following the myths of God and magic.

The Butterfly Clan, 3277.

All humankind is born with the brain and body of a saint.

They were the first generation of mythical humans from ancient times, and their power was even comparable to that of the immortal beings who created the heavens next door.

They began to cultivate rapidly, countless spells began to be perfected, and all sorts of magical methods emerged.

"We are stepping into the future!"

"One year in our alchemical civilization is equivalent to ten thousand years in a conventional civilization!"

Thus began a truly fantastical and absurd era.

"How arrogant."

Liu Jun, as an immortal deity, sat quietly on the Cangwu tree.

In the age of magic, the core principles are: dissemination and transformation.

Now, all four types of transmission have been collected.

This means that the foundation of this magical pantheon is complete.

The little swallowtail butterfly beside her was still half asleep, wondering, "What will the future hold?"

"Who knows."

Liu Jun smiled faintly:
"A civilization that grows exponentially is simply a super miracle. It may not take more than a few years for them to become an unimaginably high-dimensional civilization."

“They might even reach the end of God’s life.”

The immortal deity paused for a moment and then said, "Of course, there may also be some bad future developments."

"What bad future?" Butterfly asked curiously.

"It could be a future filled with destruction."

The immortal deity remained calm, saying, "It could also be an attack on me, the immortal deity, or even an attack on God's future."

"You mean, as they get stronger, their ambitions will grow?" Little Butterfly asked. "Didn't you say that this time there are no character flaws, unlike the last time when there was a mental disaster?"

"Hehehe." The immortal god chuckled, "Who knows? Ambition always increases as one becomes stronger; normal people have ambition too."

The amber swallowtail butterfly said, "Then let's quickly stop this disaster of wisdom."

"No need." The immortal deity looked down quietly at the foot of the Cangwu tree and said calmly, "I am also curious about what the future era will be like."

Honestly.

Liu Jun has high hopes for this era.

Let's see how far you can go.

Go ahead and create whatever you want.

Why would someone secretly release their final version just to get others to help develop its features?
The Butterfly Clan, 3279.

New kinds of magic were discovered, and various academies formed different factions.

"Is this the world of geniuses?"

They felt their minds suddenly become clear, and the world seemed to become easy to understand.

"Holy magic!"

Alchemy magic!

"Mental Imagery Reform Technology!"

"Mental Imagery Shaping Technology!"

Even a dog on the street is smarter than an angel of wisdom.

With the combined efforts of countless intelligent individuals, the cultivation speed of the strong is also increasing rapidly.

Level 5, Level 1.

Two layers.

Three floors.

The numerous fifth-tier perfect experts that the neighboring immortal civilization painstakingly produced over 40,000 years were being rapidly overtaken by those who were originally only fourth-tier.

No floor is too difficult for them!
In fact, their ten-story cultivation level is easier to break through than that of the immortal path next door.

Because they cultivate the divine system and borrow the power of external objects, they can openly absorb emotions through the magic network.

When the thousandth fifth-order perfected being appeared, they began to open up the true threshold and realm for breaking through to the sixth order.

Their countless wisdoms collided, and sparks of thought erupted throughout the entire civilization.

"Sixth rank is easier to break through than we imagined. We only had to unite more than 300,000 super geniuses and make more than 10,000 mistakes before we could perfectly deduce it."

No matter how rugged the path to enlightenment may be, it cannot stop them from having a large and powerful force.

The sheer number of geniuses they possess is enough to frighten anyone.

Even the neighbor's Sendoh would be terrified if he saw this.

The power of dissemination is truly incredible!

"This kind of superhuman power is absolutely outrageous."

Liu Jun couldn't help but sigh, "The world on God's side is still more useful. This group of monsters is much faster than the burst speed of the immortal path next door."

After all, there's no way to compare them.

Gods are those who rely on the power of heaven and earth.

Immortals are individuals who cultivate themselves.

In terms of development speed, these systems that leverage external forces definitely grow faster in the early stages.

However, the drawbacks are also obvious: it requires the installation of a magic net and is highly dependent on the environment.

Without the magic network, one cannot mobilize the power of heaven and earth, making them a fragile individual mage with no combat ability.

Even God is like that.

This day.

The first cultivator to reach the fifth level of perfection began attempting a breakthrough, drawing worldwide attention.

"I, Slav, will break through to the sixth rank and become the first sixth-rank powerhouse in the world!"

Rumble!
The first roar was heard.

Slav's body began to wither, revealing a look of pain, as his own mind drained him into a dried corpse, until he was reduced to ashes.

And his mental image came to life.

The sixth rank is a super life form that merges the physical body and soul, transforming into a mental image.

"We succeeded! His body was drained, and he transformed into a mental life form!"

"Hahaha, sixth rank, that's it!"

"Our next goal is the seventh tier!"

"Does the seventh tier exist?"

"Whether it exists or not, break through first!"

Human history has fully entered the sixth era.

But something terrifying happened.

"How are you feeling?" someone asked, looking at the Slav.

"Wah wah!" The cry of an infant came from this breakthrough to the sixth-order mental image life.

"Slav, what's wrong? Say something!"

"Waaaaah!" came the soft cry of a newborn baby. A hint of tension gradually appeared on people's faces.

They began to hold this mental image in their arms and discovered that it was a bewildered newborn baby.

Where is Slav? Isn't he this baby?

How come there's only one sixth-order mental image infant left?

Only then did people learn the truth:

"Once we successfully fuse the ten mental images and nurture them, we will be drained dry, and a sixth-order life form called a mental image will be born!"

"So, we'll die if we break through to the sixth rank?"

"Yes! We are like a fifth-level mother who has passed away peacefully, giving birth to a bewildered sixth-level child, and then passing away."

"How could there be such a strange thing in this world? Once you break through to the sixth level, you will die and give birth to a child."

When the news came, the world was in an uproar.

Countless people felt that this was a difficult situation.

"This is outrageous." Some people couldn't accept it.

"No, the essence of cultivation is the evolution of life, and this is a common occurrence in the history of life evolution."

"Evolution cannot be accomplished in one generation."

"Evolution is the result of countless lives working one after another."

"For example, a gorilla mother herself cannot evolve into a human, but the child she gives birth to may evolve into a human."

"This is the choice of evolution!"

"Procreation is the best way to select a race and a bridge to evolution."

"The gap between the fifth and sixth tiers is too big, just like the gap between a gorilla mother and a human. The gorilla mother cannot break through the class on her own. Only by giving birth to a human can she complete this class transformation."

This explanation is relatively reasonable.

It even aligns well with evolutionary theories of life history.

Cultivation is essentially a form of evolution.

Evolution, on the other hand, may occur in the next generation.

The essence of the fifth order is:

The fifth rank is the limit of its evolutionary life, and it can only give birth to the next generation of sixth-rank super life.

Can.
No one can accept it.

Although everyone says that children are the future of a race, who is willing to sacrifice themselves as a parent to give birth to such a child?
"Hahaha, sixth rank, it was all a scam!"

"This is insane! Insane! We've pursued this for so long, and this is such an absurd ending!"

Everybody knows.

The limit for a normal individual is that they can only reach the fifth level of perfection, and they cannot break through to the sixth level in their lifetime.

Upon hearing the developments outside, Liu Jun frowned.

"The path to the sixth rank became clear quickly, but this sixth rank..."

"How strange."

"However, that makes sense."

In a sense, is this forced fusion of the sixth rank actually a good thing?
After all, once he breaks through to the sixth rank, he will be gone!
All the vital energy and soul in his body were drained to nurture a child of spiritual life.

As for your claim of possessing one's own child?
This is impossible!

A mental image is the perfect union of soul and body.

Your soul and body have been drained by the mental imagery of your child. You don't even have a soul anymore, so how can you possess your own child?

"Is it almost unsolvable?"

Liu Jun found it strange.

The sixth order is much stranger than I imagined.

Just then, a voice came from outside: "God, we beg for an audience with you!"

"come in."

A group of contemporary powerhouses walked in and made a request:
"Please, God, conduct an experiment for us. We want to see if we can preserve our consciousness and break through to the sixth level!"

God: "As you wish."

A fifth-level perfected volunteer emerged and began his breakthrough to the sixth level.

At that moment, God spoke:

"I will make your consciousness reside within your soul, and then seize the sixth-order mental image life you have nurtured!"

The words fell.

A voice emanated from within this fifth-tier being:
“If this is your will, I will obey.”

"But I can't do it."

"Only when the soul and body are perfectly united can a mental image be born."

Bang!
This fifth-tier expert broke through, exploded on the spot, and died.

God's "divine words" left a part of his soul behind, and the ten mental images were not fully integrated, so he failed to break through to the sixth level and perished.

"Even God can't do that?"

"No, God can only make the reasonable happen, not the unreasonable!"

On this day, no one chose to break through to the sixth rank.

This era is full of intelligent people, yet they choose to stagnate.

After the deaths of two powerful figures from different eras, they became afraid.

"We'll wait and see."

"Yes, let's see what the future holds for that sixth-tier infant."

The Butterfly Clan, 3298.

People began to nurture these mental babies who were born with six levels of mental imagery.

He has no distinction between soul and body, but is a unified whole. He does not even have internal organs; he is a complete and whole sacred body with incredible power.

The baby is lonely.

Wow wow wow~
He looked at a group of primitive, paramecium-like creatures taking care of him in the house, and suddenly felt that the world was very boring.

Yes, the world is so boring.

The moment he was born, his cries were enough to send those lower life forms with souls into brain death.

When he was three months old, he began to dream.

After having his first beautiful dream, he opened his eyes to find the entire city reduced to ruins by the mental storm that had emanated from his dream.

Countless servants who cared for him turned to ashes in terror.

"They are so fragile."

When he opened his eyes from his beautiful dream, the world turned into a nightmare, leaving him with immense childhood psychological trauma.

His breath can distort the air.

His eyes can shoot laser beams and ignite the hellish soil on the moon.

"I am mute."

He didn't even dare to speak to them.

Because he was still an infant, he had no control over his strength; even a breath from him would kill them.

Weak, too weak.

He was born with the ability to communicate using consciousness waves, and his consciousness was so terrifying that most powerful individuals could not withstand it.

Thus, unable to even transmit his thoughts, he became a truly mute baby.

"I'm dumb."

"I'm dumb."

Unable to communicate or speak, he became increasingly silent and lonely. His childhood was filled with gloom, and his mind slowly became distorted during this time.

When I was ten years old.

As he grew older, his control over his body gradually increased, and all the abnormalities in his body were brought under control, allowing him to return to being a normal person.

Under the maid's terrified gaze, he finally managed to utter his first sentence fluently:

"You guys are so weak."

In the children's room, a child carefully plays with building blocks by pulling a string with his finger.

"Sir, sir, he can talk! He's ten years old, he can finally talk!"

At this moment, he had already controlled the power belonging to a sixth-tier expert, even if he could only control one percent of this power.

And that's this moment.

He felt that those so-called supreme experts at the fifth level of perfection could be easily crushed by him, a ten-year-old child.

Having gained some power, he finally had a concrete and intuitive understanding of the strength and weakness of the world.

"The strongest beings in this world, the so-called fifth-tier powerhouses, are nothing but paramecia."

"I wonder what level a fifth-order God, an immortal deity, is at."
