Chapter 122 - 102: Double Joy, Unexpected Harvest!

Duke’s Mansion.In the garden, the metal box teaching Maria and Thetis became excited.

"God God God~~"

The grass, green bamboo, and flowers in the Magic Plant Garden sang together, as if a gale was sweeping across the earth.

"God! Creator God!"

The metal box shouted loudly, "Is it truly life, or perhaps some sort of concept?"

"Perhaps, it’s the essence of some concept, a collection of concepts."

Rilla, bathing in the room, quickly wrapped herself in a robe and ran out, excitedly looking at the sky:

"He has bestowed countless Divine Powers, He is the will of the world, perhaps the summation of the heavenly way of countless worlds!"

"No!" The young and opinionated Maria shouted loudly: "He might also be the [Origin], mixed with the obsessions of countless lives and divine objects from past eras."

"I think so too."

The little sea giant Thetis also expressed her opinion, "The sorrows, pains, fallen divine objects of each era are gathered into Him!"

Throughout the years, countless mages pursued truth and explored the unknown.

They speculated time and again about what exactly the existence of the Creator God was!

But still, they had no answers.

They were too weak.

Now civilization was just setting sail.

Tier Four, Tier Five, even Tier Six...

Only then could they catch a glimpse of the mysterious veil and see the truth of the world.

At this time, the metal box beside shouted: "Should we start taking action, to prepare to snatch the descending divine object!"

"No need."

Great Mage Li Wei said calmly: "With the current combat power, Tier Four strongmen probably cannot easily intercept the divine objects, they will find hosts themselves."

"Once they’re parasitic on a host, we can search for them, which will be more convenient."

The people in the Duke’s Mansion heard this and agreed.

Thus, they quietly awaited the complete descent of the divine objects.

Liu Jun poured a cup of Ceres wine, lifted his head, and quietly watched the sky.

Three mushrooms appeared with data.

...

The first mushroom.

Carrying an ancient, immutable power.

As if it wasn’t a mushroom, but a unique dead thing that time couldn’t erase.

[Immortal and Unchanging]: Locks your life state.

People discovered a magical wheat field, and after the wheat was harvested, it would regrow automatically in a few days.

Publicized by the news as: Wheat Field Anomaly.

People frantically researched the reason for the wheat field’s rapid growth.

Until someone compared photos of the wheat field growing again and again, only to discover something even more terrifying:

"The wheat isn’t regrowing, it’s refreshing its state!"

"Every stem of wheat after regrowing is exactly the same as before, every single ear of wheat identical."

People surprisingly found that the roots of the wheat were refreshing their state.

As long as there is ample nourishment, it would swiftly regrow to its original [fixed state].

People were extremely excited.

As long as they left the roots, the entire plant would refresh itself again.

What’s the difference from those open-world sandbox games’ plants?

"What about humans? If humans possess this power, wouldn’t it mean eternal youth and life, this is immortality?"

People began crazily digging beneath the wheat field, hoping to find the source of this power and bestow it upon humans to gain immortality.


Unfortunately, they couldn’t find the source.

But the wheat field’s power was spreading.

The nearby apple trees were full of fruit, and after being picked, they would refresh the exact same fruit after a while.

The life state of each apple tree was frozen at that moment.

People grew more excited.

Radicals said: "We must find the source of this power, we can achieve immortality!"

Conservatives said: "We must isolate the spread of the wheat field’s power, if it spreads over the entire world, it could bring unimaginable destruction."

The entire world divided into two schools of thought.

But ultimately, driven by greed, people began actively spreading the "Wheat Field Anomaly."

A hundred years later.

The plants all over the earth transformed into a fixed eternal refresh state.

People had endless food, living as if in a fairytale paradise.

Two hundred years later.

People astonishingly discovered that animals also began displaying the same changes.

If an animal was cut in half and food was supplemented, it would refresh and recover.

People had endless animals to eat.

"It’s increasing up the food chain!"

In the third century.

People surprisingly discovered that as the last few mammals entered this mode, humans themselves ushered in immortality.

But...

After their rejoicing, contradictions and conflicts erupted in the immortality, also bringing a destruction they feared.

...

...

Absurd.

Liu Jun saw this, raising an eyebrow:

"Here it is, Low Consumption, the third Longevity Series talent after Longevity and Vision."

"I said, wisdom and longevity are two great blessings, this soup has been brewing for so long, it’s time for a third longevity upper echelon to appear."

All this was within Liu Jun’s expectations.

Rather unexpectedly, however, was the new talent of the Longevity Series, appearing quite unique.

"A fixed state, an alternative form of immortality? But it seems this immortality carries some evil, some grotesqueness?"

"After all, coming from Low Consumption, becoming No Consumption, automatic replenishment, seems normal."

Liu Jun kept thinking.

Each mushroom talent’s introduction is actually very important!

It’s basically a crucial basis for Liu Jun to judge abilities and to guess the hidden side effects.

It’s also an important standard for assessing its harmfulness.

For example, now.

With the introduction, he could roughly guess what trajectory this land would take when this thing becomes a disaster.

No matter what.

The talent of the Longevity Series, he must obtain.

But not now, he must wait, leaving it for the next round!

This time, Liu Jun’s thoughts remained unchanged:

Priority is given to obtaining [Ultimate Wisdom].

After all, [Immortal and Unchanging] is only the third talent in the Longevity Series, matching the third talent in the Wisdom Series [High Wisdom], and not the ultimate talent.

The priority is certainly higher for the ultimate talent in a series.

He pondered for a moment: "You can’t be absolute, let’s take a look at the other two."

...

Number Two, Mushroom.

[Low Transmission]: Slightly increases the transmission speed of the fungus.

People found that the infection rate of male and female X diseases in large cities was increasing, initially thinking it was due to lowered social morals leading to more cases.

Until they discovered that various epidemics were also accelerating.

Even the simplest cold was spreading within the body of every citizen, finally residing in the body of every citizen.

Various viruses and plagues were spreading rapidly and becoming widespread.

Gradually, every citizen had at least more than a hundred viruses in their body.

All of them were recognized as the kings of poisons.

Those insignificant little ailments, when accumulated in the same body, would change from quantitative to qualitative change.

In this terrifying disaster, the thirty-seven surviving humans finally coexisted with more than a hundred viruses, reviving a new era in the wasteland.

...

Hard to describe.

Liu Jun’s expression was peculiar:

"This thing, despite being a low talent, when it shows its power, the support it provides for every divine disaster is probably not lower than my [Ultimate Wisdom]."

He found it hard to imagine.

In the future, with this thing reinforcing every Divine Trial, how terrifying would the increase in infection rate be.

It’s practically a power-enhanced version!

Of course, there are benefits too.

With this thing strengthening each Divine Trial, increasing the infection rate, doesn’t it increase the magic spread rate? Increase magic suitability?

Even increase the Magic Net’s signal!

The Magic Era would undergo a qualitative change on this foundation.

"Is it a blessing in disguise?"

Liu Jun ignored this low transmission, turning his gaze to the last one.

...

Number Three is a lump of Shadow Mushroom.

[Dark Fragrance and Sparse Shadows]: Slight ability to control shadows.

It hid in the shadows, unnoticed by anyone.

Until one day, someone discovered that shadows could move.

Shadows began to develop their own civilization.

People walked on the streets, humans conversed, and their shadows underneath were also chatting.

People read in classrooms, and their shadows underneath were also reading.

People were extremely frightened yet powerless.

Until one day, their identities began to swap.

It was no longer humans moving.

But shadows moving, with humans following along.

Humans passively became mere shadows of entities.

Shadows conversed in the streets, and the physical humans there could only display terrified expressions and converse with each other.

Shadows returned home, and humans could only, in terror, return home themselves.

...

Very good! Where there is light, now there is also darkness.

Thus, the mushrooms of the light, dark, and the Five Elements, all considered base attributes, have been completely collected.

"Choose [Ultimate Wisdom]"

As soon as Liu Jun made up his mind, the sealed mushroom completely merged into him.

And in the sky above, three mushrooms transformed into three beams of light, shooting in all directions.

"Why didn’t it take one this time?"

"What happened?"

"Not clear!"

On the ground, the mages were all talking at once.

Liu Jun, however, lowered his head.

[Name: Liu Jun]

[Race: Fungus]

[Realm: Electric Realm Tier Five Telekinesis Master]

[Talent: Low Consumption, Low Symptoms, Vanish, Longevity and Vision, Yellow Bell and Earthenware Pot, Lush and Verdant Woods, Ultimate Wisdom.]

[Mushroom Soup: Low Wisdom, Low Transmission, Middle Wisdom, High Wisdom, With Light and Dust, Clear Day and Fresh Wind, Clear Moon Shining Spirit, Deep Love is not Long-lived, Star Rushing Lightning, Firelight Illuminating the Sky, Sea and River Clear, All Under Heaven, Immortal and Unchanging, Dark Fragrance and Sparse Shadows]

...

Boom!

The power within Liu Jun’s body flowed rapidly, fusing together.

With a new mushroom merging into his body, his realm once again broke through two small realms.

Now, his realm is just slightly below that of the Hot Carp he encountered previously!

"Ultimate Wisdom, finally got it!"

Liu Jun felt as if he truly became a mysterious God, having a sense that he could do anything.

Every place he went became his country!

The grass sang for him, clouds shielded him from the sun, breezes paved the way, and soil provided a safe passage.

"Unbelievable... mastering this power is stronger than imagined."

"And, there seem to be many areas not yet developed."

"Indeed, previously just borrowing this power felt so strong, but now, with 100% integration, the force is naturally more fearsome."

He revealed a slightly satisfied smile.

This time, he might really not need to eat beef anymore!

At this moment.

A mutation suddenly occurred.

In the sky, that invisible transparent ray of light seemed to hover back and forth between two lives.

Finally.

It transformed into a stream of light, actively entering Liu Jun’s body.

It was the Immortal and Unchanging from the Longevity Series!

Compared to Xu Changsheng, it chose the self with two Longevity Series talents.

Liu Jun took a long breath, feeling increasingly delighted:

"Double blessings at the door."

"The Immortal and Unchanging that flew away landed at the Great Duke’s Mansion, and this time the host chose me."
