Chapter 172

The wreckage of the frost-flower pregnancy gate collapsed into ice-crystal spores behind them, and the jungle the advance team fell into steamed with emerald-colored miasma. As Zhou Yan's aging right hand touched the fern leaves, silicon-based scales instantly proliferated on his skin—those giant cycads over three hundred meters tall had leaf veins that were living translations of the "Primordial God-Slaying Scripture."

"Gravity parameter anomaly!" Chen Mo's mechanical spine suddenly bent into a Klein bottle structure, his vocal cords playing quantum bird calls, "At 45 degrees west longitude... space-time curvature is nursing..."

### 【Quantum Rainforest】

The spiral ferns that blotted out the sky presented a Klein bottle structure under ultraviolet light, with each pinnate leaf wrapped around a miniature black hole. Lin Jin's retinal birthmark seeped inverse-entropy amniotic fluid; he saw those black holes slowly sucking the time entropy of the team members—Wang Ning's protective suit faded into a Victorian-era whalebone skirt, while Li Tuo's quantum rifle degenerated into a flintlock gun.

"Don't touch the dew!" Ao Li's reverse scale fragments suddenly aggregated into an umbrella-shaped shield. When the emerald rust spots touched the liquid dripping from the leaf tips, it triggered a local heat-death reaction—the water droplets froze in the vacuum into dodecahedral ice crystals, with fossilized insectoid larvae embryos curled inside.

Chen Mo's mechanical prosthetic eye suddenly burst with light spectra, and scanning showed that the surface of the nearest redwood trunks was covered in lactation emblems: "These growth rings... are reverse-growing war chronicles!"

### 【Silicon-Based Symbiosis】

The valves of the giant Venus flytrap suddenly opened, revealing gear-shaped mouthparts. The moment Zhou Yan's flintlock gun fired a lead bullet, the bullet head siliconized in mid-air into a miniature sand table—the sand grains pieced together the horrifying truth of this world: all vegetation root systems were connected to the cesarean section scars of Ling Yue's womb.

When Li Tuo's protective boots sank into the fungal carpet, nerve synapses suddenly grew from the soles. Those fluorescent fungi spread along his leg armor, etching the pregnancy chapter of the "Life Cradle Protocol" onto his tactical panel. When he tried to peel off the mycelium, he discovered that his DNA was undergoing quantum entanglement with the insectoid gene chain.

"There are civilization ruins to the southeast!" Wang Ning's whalebone skirt suddenly hardened into a radar array, and the bone spurs on the skirt hem pointed to a group of obelisks covered in fungal carpets. On the surface of those twisted obelisks were densely carved coordinate codes of all the deleted test worlds.

### 【Memory Predation】

When passing through a non-Euclidean labyrinth composed of aerial roots, Zhang Weiran suddenly screamed. Fluorescent vines grew from his temples, and his brain fluid was being transformed into a biological hard drive—the mycelium network forcibly played Ling Yue's deleted conception logs, each frame triggering contraction-like tremors in the jungle.

Ao Li's reverse-scale umbrella suddenly pierced the infected person's skull, and emerald flames scorched out a horrifying reality: those vines were the insectoid queen's nerve synapses, currently rebuilding the nursing matrix through memory pollution. The rescued Zhang Weiran's left eye had already siliconized into a sand-table interface, with abortion records of the test worlds floating deep within the iris.

Lin Jin's quantum dentin suddenly went berserk, piercing the main trunk of the nearest spiral fern. The stardust sprayed from his gums pieced together an anti-nursing equation on the tree trunk, and the entire giant plant suddenly burst into quantum foam—floating in the foam was a holographic image of Ling Yue cultivating the primordial insectoid embryos.

### 【Embryo Lighthouse】

The black obelisk in the center of the ruins suddenly pulsed, and the obelisk body split into birth-canal-like cracks. What surged out was not blood but amniotic fluid smelling of rust containing fragments of the "Primordial God-Slaying Scripture," with embryos of thirty-six test worlds floating in the liquid. Chen Mo's mechanical spine suddenly underwent quantum jumping, inserting into the obelisk cracks: "This is... Ling Yue's civilization womb!"

When the bone spurs touched the core, the entire ruin began siliconized childbirth. The ground bulged into mammary mountains, and nursing pipes spanning twelve dimensions extended from the cracks, with each pipe end connected to battlefield wreckage of different eras. Wang Ning's whalebone skirt suddenly activated, and the bone spurs pierced her spine, beginning to inversely transport steam codes from the Victorian era.

"Stop the cognitive pollution!" Lin Jin's quantum dentin pierced the nursing pipes, and the stardust injected triggered a chain collapse—the steam codes degenerated into primordial soup organics, and the silicon-based mountains regressed into nebula stardust. But when the collapse wave touched the obelisk core, all the test-world embryos suddenly opened their compound eyes.

### 【Dimensional Birth】

The obelisk burst amidst the wailing at absolute zero, and the surging inverse-entropy amniotic fluid transformed the jungle into womb folds. Zhou Yan's flintlock gun suddenly siliconized into a nursing pump, and what the muzzle fired was no longer lead bullets but the abortion algorithm of the "Primordial God-Slaying Scripture." The spiral ferns hit instantly degenerated into single-celled organisms, but evolved insectoid features with sucking ports in the vacuum.

Ao Li's reverse-scale umbrella aggregated into obstetric forceps at this moment, and emerald flames scorched out the truth across dimensions: "This world... is Ling Yue's biological petri dish!" In the flames emerged a terrifying scene—all vegetation were unfinished insectoid motherships, and the animals were prototypes of failed human weapons.

When the last wisp of amniotic fluid seeped into the ground cracks, Ling Yue's mechanical tear stains emerged on the ruin wreckage. The tear droplets condensed in the vacuum into ice-crystal annotations:

**The explorer will eventually become the embryo that sows the seeds. **

The surviving advance team members suddenly vomited collectively, and each vomit was a curled-up test-world embryo. Deep within the compound eyes of these embryos, new frost-flower pregnancy gates were budding in the quantum foam—the coordinate parameters on the door frames flickered with even more ancient era codes, with the tentacles of the Cambrian period and the teeth of the Jurassic period looming within them.
