Replica, a civilization born from the spark.

Ancient God's Protection, activate!

The various Transcendent Creatures that had just been introduced began to evolve and mutate under the shroud of Ancient God's Protection, gradually developing new branches… This time, Lu Chuan saw the constantly intertwining light rays hidden within the light cluster of Ancient God's Protection.

“Those are… karma lines!”

“No wonder…”

Ancient God's Protection, while helping these species evolve to adapt to the epic-level environment, was also constantly sorting out the karma between them.

Your world has given birth to a new species: "Ancestral Demonic Wolf."

Your world has given birth to a new species: "Thorned Horn Forest Deer."

Your world has given birth to a new species: "Stone-Armored Fissure Bear."

...Your world's species are more abundant.

Lu Chuan's pupils shone brightly, “It's still not enough, it's still a bit short of reaching over twenty percent Ancient God Bloodline!”

“The next step is to accelerate the flow of time.”

Every species, to traverse the long river of time, must either abandon something or gain something, and spread it through their bloodline from generation to generation… When these changes accumulate to a certain degree, new species will emerge.

This is evolution!

Of course, some species will also be submerged in the surging river of time.

But that's nothing.

“The birth of new species will inevitably lead to the extinction of some old species.”

The Ancient God Bloodline will increase with the birth of new species, but will not decrease with the extinction of any creature.

“However, Ancient God Bloodline alone is not enough. The Beginning World is not a naturally born world after all.”

“Given the Beginning World's current state, it would be difficult for it to operate for billions of years without any intervention.”

It's like an artificial ecological bottle; it can run for a short time without any external substances, but it will inevitably collapse after a certain period.

“Moreover, even naturally born worlds are bound to encounter disasters that their internal species cannot contend with.”

Take the world Lu Chuan lives in now, for example; it has experienced five devastating mass extinctions of species.

Each time, at least seventy-five percent of species were annihilated like dust in ancient history.

And now, the advent of the Transcendent is about to bring humanity its sixth mass extinction.

Scholars predict that if humanity cannot achieve universal Transcendent-hood within the next two hundred years,

Blue Star will be occupied by Transcendent Creatures, and humanity will become one of the extinct species.

Without his current fortuitous encounter, Lu Chuan would not have cared about humanity's fate two hundred years later.

But now, he feels his ambition can be greater:

“As long as I can popularize "miracle of creation" throughout the alliance, universal Transcendent-hood can be achieved within ten years.”

And he would also be able to become a true god!

“To ensure the Beginning World can cope with various unforeseen unknown factors, I need more Ancient God's Protection!”

There are only two conditions for obtaining Ancient God's Protection.

One is the birth of new “laws.”

For example, the alternation of sun and moon, the cycle of life and death, the changing of seasons… This is clearly not an easy task.

The second is the emergence of a new civilization.

The Devouring Insect Mother's insect nest counts as one, though it is a relatively fragile low-level civilization.

Within the insect nest, the lowest-ranking insect soldiers are merely puppets that require mental power and pheromones to manipulate.

Only between the Devouring Insect Mother and the high-ranking insect generals closest to the Devouring Insect Mother in the insect nest's pyramid is there the gestation, renewal, and transmission of “civilization.”

Secondly, there are the “players.” As a civilization that has been tempered and evolved for tens of thousands of years in another world, it is itself an extremely great achievement.

But for this world, “players” are always “outsiders” and unstable existences.

What Lu Chuan needs is a wise race similar to humans, born in the Beginning World!

“Great, but not difficult to replicate.”

At least before the second Ancient God's Protection, the Beginning World had already seen intelligent primates with the sprouts of civilization: the Four-Armed Orangutan!

Lu Chuan turned his gaze to the territory of the Four-Armed Orangutan.

After the baptism of Ancient God's Protection, they evolved more developed brains, and the dense fur that originally covered their bodies began to recede.

Perhaps inspired by the players they had once encountered, they began to drape the hides of their captured prey over themselves.

These hides not only kept them warm on cold nights but also prevented them from being scratched by branches while hunting.

Not only that, the axes left by the players and the bows, arrows, and spears once used against the Four-Armed Orangutan also became catalysts for their evolution.

With more convenient tools for chopping and attacking, the Four-Armed Orangutan began to build houses, make tools, spears, and traps from trees.

Their demand for trees grew so large that what was once a forest became a flat plain.

The Four-Armed Orangutan completely abandoned arboreal life and began walking upright on two feet.

To brew more monkey brew, they even began to actively plant fruit trees and other edible or medicinal plants.

“The current Four-Armed Orangutan is only one opportunity away from the birth of civilization.”

Lu Chuan adjusted the time flow rate of the Beginning World to ten times.

Soon, powerful Transcendent Creatures attacked the territory of the Four-Armed Orangutan.

The strong Four-Armed Orangutan swarmed out to protect their territory, but they were still helpless against the powerful Fanged Saber-toothed Tiger.

“Boom!”

A clap of thunder exploded.

Several red lightning bolts struck down, breaking trees, igniting dry grass, and splitting the Fifth-Order Fanged Saber-toothed Tiger to death… A brave Four-Armed Orangutan stepped forward, using an axe to cut open the charred fur, and the meat roasted by high temperatures emitted a strong aroma!

In fact, many Transcendent Creatures are secretly “carnivorous” animals; it's just that in natural environments, it's difficult to obtain meat, so they are forced to become omnivores or even herbivores.

And now, this unprecedented aroma of meat was stimulating their olfactory cells and teasing their salivary glands.

Their taste buds and intestines were clamoring wildly, and the Four-Armed Orangutan were shocked to discover at this moment:

They yearned for meat!

The Four-Armed Orangutan Leader took a step forward, cautiously cutting off a piece of cooked meat and putting it into its mouth.

The high temperature evaporated the gamey smell from the blood, leaving only the purest aroma of meat.

Deliciousness bloomed on its tongue!

The Four-Armed Orangutan Leader's eyes lit up, and it raised its arms and cheered, quickly instructing the warriors who had just fought against the powerful enemy to share this supreme delicacy, so difficult to obtain in nature.

The Four-Armed Orangutan had seen Transcendent Creatures that could control lightning or fire before.

However, like most non-lightning or fire types, they had a natural fear of this fierce, domineering, and scorching power.

They had never thought that they, unable to freely control this power, could use it to drive away powerful enemies or create delicious food.

“#＄@!”

Amidst the exclamation of a Four-Armed Orangutan, the Four-Armed Orangutan Leader noticed the still burning flame, and a stone slab within the burning flame.

On the stone slab, a group of Four-Armed Orangutan were being attacked by a Fanged Saber-toothed Tiger.

A tall, two-armed hairless ape stood high above, punishing the evil Fanged Saber-toothed Tiger while bestowing upon the Four-Armed Orangutan the right to use fire.

The Four-Armed Orangutan Leader looked at the patterns on the stone slab with glowing eyes.

At this moment, the concept of “gods” appeared for the first time in the chaotic minds of this primitive tribe.

“#%￥￥＄@!”

The Four-Armed Orangutan Leader took the lead in kneeling towards the direction where the lightning had struck.

“#%￥＄!”

Soon, the Four-Armed Orangutan knelt in a large area, devout and reverent.

Lu Chuan then adjusted the time forward by five hundred years.

In five hundred years, the Four-Armed Orangutan not only learned to use fire but also, inspired by the gods, learned to record each hunt with patterns.

The patterns gradually became simplified through generations, finally forming the prototype of “writing.”

Your world has given birth to the intelligent race “Four-Armed Apes Tribe,” and a high-level “civilization” has appeared in your world.

It finally appeared!
