Chapter 811: Evolution - Super Lifeform!

~11 min read 2,147 words

When the Fallen Titan emerged into the world, he was arrogant and proud.

After all, the once-glorious Titan Civilization had been destroyed, but he had survived by relying on his own methods.

The last living Titan... what a wonderful title.

It was precisely because of this Identity that his attitude towards the Titans, whom he had previously cared nothing about, underwent an inexplicable change.

He even had thoughts of reviving them once again.

After discovering Li Yu's existence, his own flaws could be remedied, thereby allowing him to regroup and stage a comeback.

However, he never expected that he would ultimately fall at the hands of this young man.

Therefore, his emotions towards Li Yu were complex. Sometimes he didn't mind helping him, but sometimes he was also very unwilling.

So this time, he didn't warn the other party; more so, he wanted the other party to Learn a Bitter Lesson.

It might take a very long time to resolve.

But he didn't expect Li Yu to actually be arrogant to this degree, advancing on the spot.

Originally, the success rate of Evolution was low, and without any preparation, it was even lower.

Just at this time, a special scene was projected around Li Yu's body. A large number of peculiar symbols formed circular geometric patterns and intersected into his body.

Moreover, it was continuously expanding, enveloping Li Yu in the center like a layered cocoon.

While Li Yu was within these special patterns, the Cells in his body began to go berserk, undergoing drastic changes, making him feel as if his body might separate and recombine at any moment.

On the invisible microscopic level, ten Foreign Gene Chains clung to his Primary Gene in a spiral form, showing a trend of gradual fusion.

But due to the innate repulsive nature between Gene Chains, all the Gene Chains suffered tearing. This brought about further impact, causing his Cells to begin collapsing.

But the Life Equation released fluctuations at a fixed frequency over and over again, sweeping across his entire body, stabilizing the Gene Chains.

It allowed his body to begin a genetic Warp and sublimation while maintaining its overall original structure.

Therefore, the Gene Chains began to fuse into his body. They should have repelled each other, but at this moment, they didn't suffer any repulsion. Instead, they quickly fused as if they were being absorbed.

At the same time, the Life Equation operated fiercely, instantly pushing the speed of Advancement to soar rapidly.

A feeling of pain mixed with pleasure repeatedly impacted Li Yu's Attention.

Rumble—

The surging Energy was so dense it almost condensed into substance. Centered on Li Yu, it spewed wantonly in all directions, spreading far away.

It had already risen to the level of a super-large-scale energy surge and should be detected very soon.

Searing hot Energy flowed within his body. The Gene Chains fused in a crude manner, as if a pair of invisible giant hands were forcibly squeezing them together.

Under such circumstances, failing the Evolution was getting off lightly; turning into dust on the spot was the most likely outcome.

But under the maintenance of the Life Equation, Li Yu preserved stability on the Genetic Level.

A continuous stream of Energy surged over from all directions. Li Yu felt as if he had become a water balloon being filled; his body felt like it was going to burst from the inside out.

Finally, the fusion on the Genetic Level concluded. All the Gene Chains completely merged with the Primary Gene into one entity, becoming an indescribable "Gene."

Boom!

Bursts of astonishing fluctuations erupted from Li Yu's body, causing the Fallen Titan to be suddenly startled, unable to help but say:

"He completed the first step? He was lucky enough, but it's not over yet."

"You willingly sought death yourself, you can't blame me." He snorted coldly, his words mixed with dissatisfaction, and perhaps a trace of regret?

As the Fallen Titan said, this was only the first step, and the Evolution had not ended. The fusion on the Genetic Level brought a special power.

It washed over his body again and again, causing his body's form to change time after time, advancing towards "perfection."

This was the second difficulty of advancing to a Super Lifeform. After completing the first step, the body would subsequently Warp, acquiring various characteristics of a Super Lifeform.

But Cells were fragile, and under such circumstances, they easily collapsed.

Sissoko suffered a huge loss precisely because he hadn't prepared well in this aspect.

And more importantly, there were still Annihilation Device Shards causing trouble within Li Yu's current body, which further increased the instability.

The endlessly spewing evolutionary Energy formed a massive Energy Vortex, spinning and expanding in rings, incomparably dazzling, but the Life Equation still shrouded it.

Li Yu's figure was in the center, having been submerged by boundless light.

As for this unfortunate Barren Planet, it had already been thoroughly destroyed, without a single speck of matter remaining, entirely annihilated.

A special evolutionary power traveled and circulated within his body, as if violently burning everything from his Cells to his Spiritual Body together, forging Li Yu like an iron hammer.

He endured the pain of the Metamorphosis, his heart unperturbed. With the help of the Life Equation, he knew his Path of Evolution wouldn't experience any accidents.

However, this was an advantage he had over others. Although the influence of the Code of Life made normal Evolution impossible and required the Life Equation as a prerequisite.

As long as this condition was met, his Evolution wouldn't have any trouble.

An even fiercer Energy erupted from within his body, and all his Cells began a new round of Metamorphosis.

Li Yu felt the restlessness of his Gene becoming more intense. It seemed they all wanted to break away from his body and flee on their own, which meant this Evolution was nearing its final stage.

But as the Life Equation vibrated, the struggles of the Gene were suppressed, though this also brought him greater pain.

And as time passed, the previously quite calm Fallen Titan could no longer remain composed.

With a face full of doubt and uncertainty, he stared in slight astonishment at Li Yu's figure, which was shooting out boundless light.

Could this guy really succeed in one go?

Regardless of how doubtful and uncertain the Fallen Titan felt at this moment, Li Yu's Evolution still firmly pushed forward.

A full ten days passed before the massive Energy Vortex, whose scale had expanded many times over, seemed to swell to its limit. It slowly retracted towards the center, surging into Li Yu's body stream by stream.

Li Yu was seen hovering in the air with his eyes closed, seemingly still in the state of Evolution and not yet awake. His skin was crystal clear, like a Holy Spirit.

His hair fluttered, with every strand wrapped in a pale golden light. The space around his body faintly caved in, seemingly unable to bear his current "mass."

Very soon, the various miraculous phenomena on his body began to converge, restoring to a normal appearance.

But some Aura that involuntarily emanated still left the Fallen Titan full of astonishment.

He couldn't be more familiar with this Aura; it was distinctly the Aura of a Super Lifeform.

This guy really succeeded in his Evolution!?

He found it hard to understand. The threshold of a Super Lifeform was extremely difficult to cross, even for the Titan race.

But placed on this guy, why did it seem as simple as eating and drinking?

As Li Yu opened his eyes, the surging emotions in the Fallen Titan's heart gradually calmed down.

No matter how shocking this matter was, in front of him who was about to die, it was nothing.

With complex emotions, he spoke, "Congratulations on your successful Evolution. Super Lifeform is an insurmountable threshold, yet I didn't expect you to cross it so simply."

"Originally..." He paused, thinking of his previous Inexplicable Emotions, and didn't know how to continue speaking.

His emotions towards Li Yu were quite complex; after all, both were the "last Titan."

Furthermore, the other party had captured him head-on.

Although he wanted the other party to restore the glory of the Titan Civilization, he also felt unwilling towards him.

But just now when the other party was evolving, he was very worried.

He wasn't concerned about Li Yu as a person, but merely concerned about a fellow "Titan" compatriot.

Li Yu just looked at him quietly, simultaneously comprehending his own power.

After evolving into a Super Lifeform, the shard indeed calmed down and no longer continued to erode his body.

"Regardless, you successfully got rid of the shard's erosion." The Fallen Titan continued speaking on his own:

"However, now I must remind you. Housing the Annihilation Device Shards will grant you an extremely powerful means of attack, while simultaneously immunizing you against the Annihilation Device's attacks."

"But if that civilization discovers you, they will inevitably view you as their number one hunting target."

"I can only say it has pros and cons."

This was another piece of information Li Yu hadn't known beforehand.

Expressionlessly raising his hand and looking at the Fallen Titan, whose Life Aura was increasingly declining, he said, "Thank you for the reminder. I understand. I will send you off."

Immediately, he triggered the shard within his body. A burst of Gray Energy emerged from the Universe, slowly enveloped the Fallen Titan, and ultimately annihilated him into formless fragments.

The Fallen Titan didn't say anything more and simply welcomed his own death peacefully.

"It is indeed a very powerful means of attack..." Li Yu pondered.

"Fighting a Super Lifeform at Silver Shadow's level should become much easier."

However, it would be very difficult to use the shards repeatedly within a short period.

"Moreover, this seems like it can be considered a ranged attack..."

He thought inwardly. This was easy to verify; in a few days, he could just try it with the Hawkeye Emblem.

Having evolved into a Super Lifeform, all the Gene Chains had fused into one. His previous abilities were also like a hodgepodge, stewed together in one pot.

But this didn't mean he couldn't use them. On the contrary, they all received some wonderful Amplifications, which could only be felt when actually used.

At the same time, he could perceive some strange sensations. For example, regarding the meteorite in front of him, Li Yu could even vaguely perceive its existence time and origin.

This was exactly the specific perception and even modulation of the Cosmic Information State by a Super Lifeform.

And there were also some special statuses that could only be seen through digitization.

[Return to One: Great power returns to one. You have retracted the intertwining of your own Information State with the Universe. You exist in the Universe, yet you do not exist in the Universe.]

This was essentially "jumping out of the three realms, no longer within the five elements."

Methods like predictions and Curses wouldn't work on Super Lifeforms.

Because to the Universe, they simply didn't exist.

However, the Virtual Goggles seemed to ignore this influence and could still digitize him, or rather, it was the power of the System.

[Time-Space Solidification: Your time and Space Intensity are hard to shake, and will hardly be affected by related abilities.]

This status explained why the Councilors were so confused and shocked when their time was reversed earlier.

There were also some other statuses like [Lifeforce Suppression] and [Energy Conversion], which also highlighted the power of a Super Lifeform.

However, among them was one rather unusual status.

[Store Up to Release: You fused ten Gene Chains to become a Super Lifeform, far exceeding a normal Super Evolved Being on the Genetic Evolutionary Path.

This brings you Strength greater than other Super Lifeforms, as well as the capital to house more Source Matter.]

This was easy to understand. A normal Genetic Evolutionary Path could generally only accommodate three to five Foreign Gene Chains.

He had pushed it straight to ten, so it was perfectly normal to receive Amplifications.

It's just that Li Yu was a bit doubtful about this final "house more Source Matter."

What did this mean?

He guessed this thing should be related to the continuous Path of Evolution of a Super Evolved Being.

He didn't know much about this level, but the Star Glory Empire's Super Lifeforms didn't seem to use "Source Matter" to evolve, did they?

Uh... forgot, the Star Glory Empire doesn't have the means to extract Source Matter.

He frowned slightly, feeling that it was time to put heading to the Barren Universe Zone on his agenda.

Not only to clearly figure out the specific situation of the outside world but also to find the path to continue evolving.

After all, this Interstellar region had fallen too far behind.
