"Die for the Immortals!"
Zhao Meng was surprised by Yin Ji's answer, but it was also within his acceptance range.
"Why?"
At this time, Yin Ji's big butt swayed and she asked:
"Do you think immortals can live forever?"
"If immortals can live forever, what is the price?"
"What does this have to do with Yin Ji's death?"
"I don't know much. I only know that Yin Ji's death is related to the immortal's immortality."
Faced with such an answer, Zhao Meng didn't know what to say. Yinji Dagu's answer seemed to answer some questions, but at the same time it brought many questions.
"So what does the divine seed mean to the immortals?"
"have no idea."
"Um?"
"What kind of existence are those immortals?"
"Intangible, qualityless, and insensible, it seems that it is not in the same world as us."
"What about the fairy world?"
"I can't feel it."
Zhao Meng asked many more questions, but the answers he got were ambiguous.
"I'm going back. I still need to control the fairy boat. If you need anything, call me."
Zhao Meng pondered as he looked at Yin Ji's large stock that returned to the box.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Zhao Meng remained silent, Xixihu asked aloud.
"nothing?"
Zhao Meng shook his head gently and looked at the metal box in front of him. He did not ask any further questions.
"This Yinji stock seems to have changed a lot. Is it related to the refining of the immortal?"
He muttered and glanced at the picture sent back by the female ghost with a head.
At this time, the evil mother turned red for some reason. She seemed to be controlling her clone and had a fierce argument with others.
"The evil mother's time out is almost over, we have to wait for the next opportunity."
Looking at the evil mother who opened her eyes, Zhao Meng took another look at the metal box, put it back in place, and quickly exited the black tower and returned to the shore.
The Evil Mother, whose consciousness returned from the clone, did not look for him, but was busy doing something alone.
Similarly, Zhao Meng, who returned to the shore, was not idle. He became familiar with the situation of the entire fairy boat through Yin Ji Daguo.
Under the combined influence of the human-headed female ghost and Yin Ji Dagu, Zhao Meng has now completely stolen the control of the fairy boat.
Now this is Zhao Meng's fairy boat, but in order to avoid arousing the evil mother's vigilance, Zhao Meng did not deny the evil mother's authority.
Although he had mastered the authority of the fairy boat, Zhao Meng did not feel relaxed. Under the surveillance of the human-headed female ghost, two more fairy boats appeared outside.
The evil mother once again controlled the clone and went to discuss the matter.
Although the evil mother was restrained and her energy would not disturb him, the constant appearance of the fairy boats also put an inexplicable pressure on him.
"We have to find a way to know their plans."
"But if you want to leave the Immortal Boat and enter the Pulse Immortal Channel after the fifth time domain, your cultivation level must at least reach that of God Transformation. My cultivation level is not enough."
: Maybe you can try other methods! "
At this time, Zhao Meng was sitting cross-legged by the river, and his consciousness came to a shadow space.
Looking at the phantom with a human head and a snake tail, Zhao Meng hesitated for a moment and then made a decision.
He originally planned to save up through the simulation. After all, time in the outside world basically stagnated in the simulation. Although it could not cause a rapid increase in strength, it could also allow him to get some unexpected help at critical moments.
"Forget it, I originally planned to wait until the fairy world is near before conducting the simulation."
"But the plan can't keep up with the changes. The Evil Mother has summoned so many beings, so the extraction of entries can only be advanced."
Zhao Meng's consciousness suddenly moved, and he touched the light group in front of the phantom with a human head and a snake's tail.
His consciousness fell into a trance, and a new simulation began.
[In the first week, you become a D-shaped larva of a geoduck, with a body length of 210 microns]
"Geoduck, floating state?"
"Why is it such an animal?" Zhao Meng, who had come back to his senses, muttered helplessly as he felt the water flowing around him.
He had heard of geoducks but never seen them.
"What kind of words can be found on this animal?"
The strange appearance of this animal appeared in his mind, and Zhao Meng felt curious.
At this moment, a wave of ocean current passed by, and Zhao Meng's body floated uncontrollably with the current. In this state, he did not dare to be distracted.
"Geoduck also starts floating, which is a bit troublesome."
[On the first three days of the first three days, you will grow into a shell-top larvae after planktonic feeding, and your body length will reach 310 microns. 】
"Oops! It's a filter feeder!"
Looking at a floating sea insect, Zhao Meng wanted to avoid it.
But facing this behemoth that could be seen with the naked eye, he had little possibility of evading it.
He was born with a weak body, which limited his human wisdom.
[You were eaten and the simulation failed. 】
Looking at the words that popped up in front of him, Zhao Meng did not give up and continued the simulation.
"When you start floating, it just depends on your luck!"
To be honest, I have simulated so many animals, although most of them are very weak in their larval state.
Some chordates still have the possibility for him to exert human intelligence.
But only the planktonic larvae that win by numbers, this larval form that can only be seen under a microscope, are too easily affected by the environment.
Even a slight change in the salinity and temperature of the sea water may endanger his life.
In the floating state, he is at the bottom of the ocean, and he can only survive by luck.
Zhao Meng then continued to reopen.
"The seventh time!"
Zhao Meng, who failed again, sighed helplessly.
He really wanted to bring this cultivation into the simulation, but unfortunately the simulation system would only allow him to simulate on the dust-like plankton and experience the cruelty of nature over and over again.
[In the second week, your body changes. You grow feet and aqueduct primordia, and your body length reaches 360 microns. 】
"Finally survived to the second week!"
Feeling the not-so-hard shell on my body,
Although he still needs a microscope to see, he already has some ability to save his life.
[In the third week, you enter the attachment metamorphosis stage, and your instinct drives you to find a "base". Your body length reaches 510 microns. 】
"He actually survived until the third week."
"There's a show this time!"
Feeling his physical condition, Zhao Meng felt a little excited.
He had simulated so many animals, so he should have a peaceful mind about the simulation, but the start of the floating state still had some impact on his mentality.
After all, every death is his personal experience, not a simple narrative imitating words.
[In the first month, you find a suitable attachment point and your body length grows to 870 microns. 】
"At this time, the geoduck seems to be no different from ordinary clams, and I don't know how it grows like that."
Zhao Meng felt his physical condition, muttered, and continued to dig into the sand.
As the tide came in, Zhao Meng opened his clam shell and filtered the plankton in the sea.
As for whose children are included in these plankton, Zhao Meng can't control that much.
[In the second month, after continuous growth, you completed metamorphosis and entered the larvae stage. Your body length at this time reached 5 mm]
"Five millimeters, it's about the size of the tip of a fingernail on a ruler, and it's completely visible to the naked eye."
“I didn’t expect this simulation to go so smoothly.”
"And I've had some changes."
Zhao Meng was hiding on the beach in the shallow sea at this time. He felt the arrival of the tide. Zhao Meng stretched out his head and filtered the food brought by the tide.
After an unknown amount of time, the tide receded and Zhao Meng shrank back into the beach.
"It's no wonder geoducks grow like this. It turns out they have to adapt to this environment."
"But I'm still far from a complete geoduck."
Zhao Meng felt his state. At this moment, he had completely broken away from the appearance of a traditional clam.
A cylindrical tube-like substance protrudes from the outside of the clam shell.
There are also some fleshy pads under the clam shell, which are fixed in the sand and gravel below like suction cups.
Perhaps because he is still in his infancy, he can only call it bean sprouts at this moment, and it is not even comparable to those sea bean sprouts.
But as a geoduck, Zhao Meng knew very well that this was just the beginning, and his body would not end here.
[In the third month, after eating, your body grows further, and your body size reaches 5.7 mm at this time]
"Only 0.7 mm longer!"
"This growth rate is a bit slow!"
Zhao Meng originally thought that he would soon grow into a giant clam, but the reality brought him a huge blow. At 5.7 mm, the head of the clam was almost invisible.
"Shortness also has advantages. Now I can still retract into the clam shell and avoid the threat of crabs, which is another benefit."
Zhao Meng comforted himself and continued the simulation.
[In the sixth month, after continuous eating, your body length reaches 2.5 cm. 】
“Finally it’s a little more obvious!”
Zhao Meng felt his state, and for some reason an emotion called joy emerged in his heart. Perhaps this was the benefit that growth had brought to him!
[In the first year, your body length reached 5.3 cm]
"These crabs!"
"Hiss~"
The tube Zhao Meng stretched out to eat was caught by an unknown crab.
"I lost it!"
Zhao Meng abandoned his head, and the pig's nose-like thing was caught by the crab, and Zhao Meng successfully hid in the sand.
"I can't shrink back!"
"This clam shell is no longer useful."
Zhao Meng's size reached a certain size, but at the same time, the abnormality of his body structure made it impossible for the clam shell on him to close anymore.
He can only maintain the state of breaking out of his shell.
Maybe this is growing pains.
[In the second year, you continued to eat and grew to 10.1 cm]
"I have completely lost my ability to move!"
Zhao Meng felt his state and sighed slightly.
From the floating state to landing on this beach, I recall what I have experienced in the past two years.
Zhao Meng felt as if he was not an animal, but a plant rooted on the beach, absorbing plankton in the sea between tides.
In this rooted state, his 'feet' that could be used for movement also gradually deteriorated.
He was completely fixed here.
"I don't know what entries can be obtained from this animal."
Zhao Meng carefully recalled the life of the tuck clam in the first two years. He found that there seemed to be nothing special about this animal except its unique appearance.
"By the way, it seems that the head of this animal's tube can be discarded, just like the tail of a gecko. There may be some strange entries here."
[In January of the next year, you continue to eat and your body is growing rapidly. 】
Zhao Meng thought that his simulation was stable, but who would have thought that surprises would always come at unexpected times.
"What happened? Why did the sea water suddenly recede!"
After two years of simulation, Zhao Meng already had an instinctive memory of the tide. It was supposed to be the time of high tide, but the sea water suddenly receded.
His doubts did not last long. Soon a large amount of seawater came in, and Zhao Meng subconsciously put his head out to filter the seawater.
But then he felt something was wrong. The seawater brought a lot of plankton this time, but the water flow was terrifyingly fast.
Facing this terrifying wave, Zhao Meng immediately realized what was happening:
"It's a tsunami!"
Zhao Meng quickly retracted his head. Although geoducks have the ability to face the impact of waves, Zhao Meng is not yet complete.
There is not much resistance in the face of natural disasters.
He was rushed out by the mighty force of heaven and earth. With little ability to move, he left the beach and went deep into the land.
[Simulation failed! 】
When his consciousness returned to his body, Zhao Meng let out a long breath as he looked at the text that popped up in the system:
"I didn't expect that this time, instead of being eaten by natural enemies, we encountered a natural disaster, which is considered unlucky."
"It's a pity that it hasn't entered the important breeding node yet."
"That's it! Continue the simulation."
Zhao Meng was not someone who gave up halfway. After calming down for a while, he continued to simulate.
The floating game still relied on luck to survive at the beginning. After restarting more than ten times, the simulation finally got on track.
[In the first week, you hatch from the egg and become the D-shaped larvae of the geoduck...]
From the first week to one year, Zhao Meng went through a similar journey.
But the difference is that last time he landed on a sandy beach, and this time he landed on a muddy beach, keeping company with a group of mudskippers.
If the geoduck simulated by Zhao Meng had human eyes, he would still be able to find that the last time his clam meat was completely pink and white, but this time he was born in the mud and was a little black.
However, even if he knew it, he wouldn't care. Color has no influence on the success of the simulation.
[In the third year, your body length reaches 12 centimeters through continuous eating. 】
"It's bigger, longer, and requires more food! There are some differences between the mud beach and the sand beach."
Zhao Meng could feel some roots in the soil. These roots were most likely the roots of the mangroves on the seaside.
Fortunately, most of these roots play a fixed role and do not affect his settlement.
[In the fourth year, you continue to grow and your body size reaches 15 centimeters]
"It seems it will take some time to grow to 18 centimeters!"
"I didn't expect that the geoduck would grow slower toward the back."
Zhao Meng, who felt his physical condition, muttered.
"I can feel the geoduck breeding season is coming soon!"
"I didn't expect it would take four years."
"But how does such a fixed creature reproduce?"
At this time, Zhao Meng was leaning his head to filter-feed things in the sea. Zhao Meng became very interested in the reproduction process of geoducks.
