462: Ecological restoration

Listening to Godlike's explanation, Xiao Xiao nodded slightly.

I will establish a teleportation channel connecting to the ground for you, you can take the materials yourself. As for that super gene, will it have any negative impact on the subsequent ecosystem?

“Xiao Xiao, please rest assured, it will only promote the reproduction and growth of organisms, and will not have any negative impact on the ecology. Moreover, I have also added a self-regulating mechanism to the gene; the energy of these super genes will be diluted after three generations, by which time the population will be more or less stable.”

“Okay, begin!”

Following Xiao Xiao's command, Godlike began to activate the biological reactor manufacturing. Under Godlike's control, atoms obtained from the ground began to arrange themselves in an orderly fashion, forming biological reactors. These reactors, like miniature factories, could quickly synthesize various biological seeds, spores, and primitive plants.

Bai Yiming also demonstrated astonishing ability in the purification work of the sea area. Under the effect of divine power, he could easily manipulate the elements in the seawater, removing harmful substances one by one. Sea areas with heavy radiation pollution gradually recovered in his hands.

“Bai Yiming, how are things on your side?”

“Almost done. In another half day, I will be able to purify this sea area,” Bai Yiming replied.

“Good. After you finish purifying, come back and help me release the organisms. I have already manufactured the first batch of seeds and plants,” Xiao Xiao said.

Bai Yiming acknowledged and accelerated the purification speed. Half a day later, he successfully completed the purification of the sea area and immediately returned to space.

Bai Yiming couldn't help but sigh, “With so many organisms, can Blue Star really recover?”

“Don't worry. For a God-level Civilization, let alone restoring an ecosystem, creating one based on planetary characteristics is effortless.”

Bai Yiming nodded slightly and said, “Okay, I'm off to work.”

Following the deployment map provided by Godlike, he released the seeds and plants one by one to every corner of Blue Star. The biological species were numerous, and the deployment had to be extremely precise; every plant had requirements for its dimension and altitude. Moreover, during deployment, their competitive relationships also had to be considered, requiring control of proportions and densities, among other things.

This work was very time-consuming. Bai Yiming flew around the globe, deploying various plants.

This kept him busy for nearly half a month.

After these seeds and seedlings were put in place, under the effect of the super reproductive growth gene, they quickly grew and multiplied, soon forming patches of green vegetation.

Xiao Xiao was not idle either; she directly condensed two reflective mirrors at the edge of Blue Star, reflecting a portion of the sunlight back.

The evaporation in the ocean increased, and water vapor in the sky also began to increase, forming a humid climate. Blue Star's climate gradually became more suitable for living organisms.

The two worked closely together, restoring everything from plants to animals, one by one. This continued for four months.

Under the effect of the super growth genes of the primary organisms, Blue Star's ecological restoration work achieved significant results. Green vegetation covered the land, clear seawater surrounded the planet, and various organisms thrived on Blue Star, forming a vibrant picture.

Bai Yiming looked at the scene before him and couldn't help but marvel at the power of a God-level Civilization. He remembered how he once felt despair and helplessness about Blue Star's future, but now, he saw hope and possibility.

“Xiao Xiao!”

“Hmm!”

“Are you tired?” Bai Yiming asked.

Xiao Xiao found it somewhat amusing and countered, “What about you? Are you tired? Four months of sleepless work, how do you feel?”

Bai Yiming smiled and said, “Divine power sharing is like being on an adrenaline rush. I don't feel even a trace of fatigue.”

“Then why do you ask me? If you're not tired, do you think I would be?”

Bai Yiming scratched his head with a smile and said, “I'm just running errands. You're supplying me with energy while also manufacturing plants and animals. You're doing much more than me and consuming more too.”

Xiao Xiao smiled faintly: “The energy we consumed to restore Blue Star's ecology is even less than the energy our sun releases in one second. Inside me, there are the energies of over a hundred supermassive stars. Each one can rival tens of thousands of stars like the sun.”

What Xiao Xiao said was true. With her demigod body, destroying stars was not a problem with a flick of her hand. Causing destruction was effortless for her, but to restore an ecosystem, such precise operations still required the help of a cosmic-level supercomputer.

Bai Yiming said, “When you say that, I feel that non-divine beings are extremely insignificant.”

“Hehe, when I have a chance, I'll take you to experience alien civilizations. Among those God-level Civilizations, there will also be one or two super strong individuals.”

Bai Yiming's face showed a hint of astonishment, and he asked, “How strong are such individuals exactly?”

“Well, they themselves aren't very strong; they're just good at utilizing rules, similar to accelerating low-mass objects to near light speed for attacks. Or having multiple backups of their consciousness, making them un-extinguishable, and so on.”

“Isn't that strong enough?”

Xiao Xiao turned her head and said, “No, it's not. If you can't transform into a pure energy body, there's a risk of being annihilated. In this universe, only pure energy cannot truly be annihilated.”

Listening to Xiao Xiao's narration, Bai Yiming fell into contemplation. He had never thought before that beings in the universe could reach such a high level.

“Then, how far are we from a God-level Civilization at our current level?” Bai Yiming couldn't help but ask.

Xiao Xiao shook her head slightly, “Very far. We can't even do the most basic interstellar travel now, let alone master cosmic rules. What my dad and I can do doesn't represent humanity as a whole.”

Bai Yiming nodded, saying nothing.

“Ecological restoration is complete. But this is just the beginning; Blue Star's ecology still needs time to further stabilize. I'll go remove the reflective mirrors first. As for the time coming up....”

“What about the time coming up?”

“What else can we do? Eat, drink, and have fun,” Xiao Xiao said with a smile.

Listening to Xiao Xiao's relaxed answer, Bai Yiming also smiled. After this period of joint effort, they had finally completed Blue Star's ecological restoration work, and it was indeed time to relax properly.

“You're right. Do you want to go back to the space city?” Bai Yiming asked.

“No, I still need to stay on Blue Star for a while. It's not as free in the space city,” Xiao Xiao said.

After removing the reflective mirrors, Xiao Xiao and Bai Yiming returned to Donghai City.

“Godlike, stop divine power sharing.”

“Xiao Xiao, divine power sharing has been stopped.”

Bai Yiming felt his strength instantly drain away. For a moment, he felt a hint of loss. But this feeling quickly disappeared; power that wasn't his own was bound to be lost eventually.

Xiao Xiao looked at Bai Yiming, found him very calm, and nodded slightly, saying, “With powerful strength gone, do you feel very lost?”

“A little at first, but then I thought about it and felt relieved. It's nothing major. Power also means loneliness.”
