The Gene Gamer - Chapter 89

The ancient had fallen, and I hope that you, the inheritor, to reclaim our previous glory…

…..

“Oh.. so that’s it” muttered Cylius in a low tone, almost as if whispering.

Suddenly, a yellow glint of light flashed through his eyes, as Cylius could feel the steady rise in spiritual energy.

[Host is increasing boost in spiritual energy…]

[Spiritual energy +10]

[Spiritual energy +10]

[Spiritual energy +10]

[Spiritual energy +10]

[Spiritual energy +10]

…

[Total spiritual energy acquired: Data too large…]

[Converting to purified spiritual energy… Data too large to use]

[Converting to pure spiritual energy… Data too large…]

[Converting to pure spiritual essence… 1,000,000]

[Purified spiritual energy: 5x]

[Pure spiritual energy: 100x]

[Pure spiritual essence: 100,000x]

Looking at the value in front of him, only a blank look appeared on Cylius’s face. Compared to the information he had received, the amount of spiritual energy he got was nothing.

Although it may be much, they aren’t some runic comprehensions, the world could produce them at any time.

From what he saw, it was said that there was time this realm, Pneuma had once flourished.

Countless geneticians, the way they called it back then, psachnos, were born.

The time said that fourth-tiers were everywhere and was considered the start of the true journey of psachnos while fifth-tiers could be considered just a little above them.

Only the sixth-tier psachnos could prove to serve the great lords. And by great lords, he meant the law existences.

These law existences, they mastered rules and regulations of the world they are residing in. Each of them held unimaginable powers and held tiny portions of the world source.

These rules and regulations were the absolute authority to a certain law. Like the law of gravity.

Although it meant absolute authority, the sixth-tiers only held a portion of the laws they had mastered. Only the seventh-tiers were supposed to hold absolute authority without anyone vying or trying to comprehend it.

In other words, the rule and regulation the sixth-tier chose could have competition and there could be several existences that have already comprehended it.

Only by eliminating all of them and absorbing their authority, would the person be allowed to advance into the seventh-tier.

This was what the token recorded.

But from his observation, it seemed like the ancients recorded the tier one lesser from what we call them now.

For example, in the token, it may appear as first-tier but in the current world, it would be referred to as the second-tier.

So the sixth-tier should mean the seventh-tier of the current world.

Since the person told that there was the legendary ninth-tier that hadn’t appeared before, it should mean the tenth-tier of his current world.

From the token, it also said that there was a great war that happened between another world and their own world, which resulted in a great blow to their world.

From the information, this world had first invaded their own world. Their world, at the time, didn’t even know that there were other realm than them, were taken aback.

Their strength differed greatly so they were the one on the losing end.

It was said that their world was even forced to abandon half of the world and stop the invaders.

Fortunately, they survived the invasion, but by the time, many law existences had fallen and the world of Pneuma’s forces had been dealt a severe blow.

By sacrificing half of the world, they stopped the invaders but peace didn’t come. Instead, it was an internal strife for resources.

The leaders of the world, the surviving law existences wanted more resources and also due to their differing opinions and ideals, they battled among themselves which made the world’s factions split into two parts.

So it was said that most law existences had died and the surviving ones were too severely injured that they were destined to die.

Due to the world’s one half getting destroyed, the world entered a deep hibernation and didn’t allow any people to gain access to its source, so the law existences were unable to recover.

After the war between themselves ended, they reached a decision.

They would split the world into two parts, to make them heal by themselves and then combine later to make a unique world.

The two parts were the current human universe and the monster universe.

Since the world’s consciousness was in hibernation, now law beings would also not be allowed to exist meaning that the peak power of this world was the sixth-tier existence.

As for the awakening consciousness, the current world consciousness seemed to be separated into many pieces and the pieces are currently fighting and devouring each other to become the true world consciousness. It seemed that the one that was against him was just a minor piece of the many.

After designing both of them, they sacrificed their laws to make it happen.

The first rule was that, the two universes must not each other meet until the world had awoken.

The second rule was that, one of the universes will be deprived of spiritual energy and no extraordinary powers will be allowed to exist until the two universes meet each other. Only the spirit gate shall exist within the universe shall continue its work.

The third rule was that…

And it continued as such. Seeing this, the bloodline limitations and why there was no life in the human universe except earth became reasonable. Even the deadly virus that spreads when the mother planet was destroyed became reasonable.

As for the alien civilization? It seemed like it was just an example to show humanity that destroying their planet would be no good.

When designing the rules, they took the opinion of other law existences and voted. For some rules that the law existences were rather remindful of, the divinators took part in.

Apparently, the person who had left this information was also a law existence at the sixth-tier. It says that most of them, the law beings, chose to leave information and inheritance to the later generations so people other than him knowing this information is likely.

He didn’t exactly know how much inheritances there are, but it says that there were twelve law beings at the time.

So he had to be prepared for there to be twelve inheritances.

Its also likely that the federation and the noble monster clans had already known this information but decided to hide it since their reach was far and wide.

The law existence he had inherited from was the Spirit Lord, Pyrinas.

His inheritance included three things. First, the spiritual energy. Second, the information about the history. And lastly, his knowledge.

From the three inheritances, the knowledge was the most important.

Not only did it record the various information about spirit beings and their information, it also contained research materials of the Lord.

Now, he could advance his soul and physical form in the best suitable form.

Right now, he will first form his core.

From what he knew, the core they were cultivating was the most basic and simple core. One that was designed according to the person’s specialization. But since it was only due to their innate special traits, and not from a certain technique, the boost it had towards their own host wasn’t much.

It said that cores must be built according to what they specialized in.

For example, if the person specialized in transforming into a certain monster or monsters, he would have to build a core that perfectly suits him and helps in his transformation.

Like, it should be able to help process energy and control the rune to make it easier for the person to transform.

Since he had been building the core that was just special due to his own nature, he will have to destroy what he built and start a new one.

The one he would be building is the ‘Dimensional Spirit Core’. It’s a core that allows the person to find and absorb spiritual energy in large amounts. It would be able to be built by absorbing the runes of a planet and needs exactly seven normal planets and one spiritual planet.

It truly hard to make but had incredible uses later on.

For the first part, he needs to build its foundation by infusing a large amount of spiritual energy. Then, he would later have to devour the entire runic system of several normal planets or one spiritual planet.

By doing that, he will be able to create the most suitable core for himself. The process of inscribing wouldn’t be much hard too and would take little time

Ghosts were able to advance by devouring large amounts of rune strings so they were said that they often destroyed several planets to advance.

It seemed like the Dimension Spirit Core was also specially designed for ghosts specializing in dimension.

So it meant that once he could find and devour some planets, he would able to advance to the third-tier.

So after destroying his core and then rebuilding it with a higher quality spiritual energy, he left the water.

He kept all the lake water in his spatial pouch. They were precious since every droplet of it contained spiritual energy and the amount of spiritual energy it contained was enormous.

As for the token, after leaving him with the knowledge and spiritual energy, it faded into dust.

…..

After leaving, he destroyed the whole cave in order to erase his tracks. He even twisted the dimension within the area so his tracks are even more cleaned.

There were still three days left until the test ends, so he was going out to explore the island.

His strength hadn’t improved by much after this but he was sure that with the knowledge he had acquired, he would be able to improve tremendously.
