Starting with Growing Mushrooms

Chapter 713: Chapter 568: Creation, Divine Object Series of Single Cells

After seven days, Fortuna had finally had her fill of fighting.

Like rolling a snowball, she crazily stripped away the Divine Object shells on the enemy, beating him until he completely collapsed in despair.

Liu Jun didn’t feel much sympathy about it.

Winners are kings, losers are scum. That’s all.

The other side was a cruel, mentally immature kid—a little bastard who ignored life.

Sometimes brats are more disgusting than real villains.

All these years, he’d been hiding here among a bunch of pure, clueless Divine Object dolls, blending into this pile of ancient spoils of war—how many experts had he assassinated?

Those divers who followed the Eternal Pointer here to dig for treasure probably never imagined the whole "Akusu Ruins" was alive, a man‑eating city.

After torture and execution with nothing held back, this generation’s mastermind finally fell for good.

There was no hesitation at all, just killed him outright.

There was never any thought of "reforming" the brat, washing his heart clean and teaching him to be good.

Fortuna felt a bit regretful seeing him die, but quickly stopped caring,

"I feel like we can make another kid, one with a bit more mental maturity this time..."

"We can."

God nodded slightly. "Compared to me personally granting Wisdom, the process of mortals themselves pursuing Wisdom is the true correct path."

"God will not always exist."

Liu Jun looked at this squad of Divine Object guards under his command, all granted Wisdom by Ultimate Wisdom. "You have to seek Evolution on your own. Mortals who are self‑reliant are the happiest."

"My lord is right!"

These Divine Object guard squads did indeed have the mental adulthood brought by Ultimate Wisdom.

But how many Divine Objects could God awaken?

If everyone relied on his Divine Power to awaken, how many seas could his vast Divine Power possibly cover?

So.

As the God of Wisdom, researching how to grant Divine Objects Wisdom was indeed his main job.

But what he wanted to study was a self‑reliant method.

At the moment, he had already found two forms.

The first was the oceanic Evolution of unicellular organisms aggregating into multicellular fish—namely, the gear‑cell‑converged AI life in front of him.

The second was a swarm‑type pyramid structure.

Namely Merfolk life, whose Wisdom was mainly concentrated in the queen ant, while the worker ants under her were incomparably simple—a race in the form of an ant queen.

These two methods were the two directions for Divine Objects to possess Wisdom, both of reference value.

He’d even.

Liu Jun was already thinking of taking another trip to the neighboring Nation of Waves to take out that underwater Merfolk mastermind from the Magic Box’s Introduction.

Get a wave of his technical methods and compare them with the one in front of him.

But that would have to wait until after this return trip.

Liu Jun looked at Fortuna. "We’ve already gotten the locations of several more of his subordinates. Next, you’ll lead the team to take them out!"

"On it!" Fortuna said. "I just love beating up violent little brats, love watching them fly into a rage!"

With that, Fortuna led the expanded team of 3,000 perfected Divine Objects and set off directly.

He believed that without God personally sitting in, and without needing to open up a waterless world as a battlefield, Fortuna could still crush them in the Chaotic Sea Water.

After all, the boss was already dead; the rest were just a few little small fry.

Watching Fortuna leave, Liu Jun looked at the remaining batch of perfected tenth‑tier Divine Object dolls,

"Taking down one ancient ruin actually netted over 8,000 supreme Divine Object dolls... At this rate, every perfected powerhouse drops more than a hundred Divine Objects after death."

"I’m afraid over these years this brat has already killed around fifty top‑tier perfected powerhouses."

That was an extremely shocking number.

The city spirit of the Akusu Ruins, a super national‑level intelligent lifeform, was indeed terrifyingly vicious.

And this bumper haul also gave Liu Jun a massive boost in combat strength.

A logistics support team of 8,000 could already perfectly form an ant‑like transport line, shuttling back and forth to replenish oxygen, allowing Liu Jun to live at a depth of 500,000 meters.

If he optimized the transport route, stretching the supply line to one million meters probably wouldn’t be a problem either.

"Which means, after this wave, I already have the foundation to dive to the one‑million‑meter level."

Liu Jun lowered his head, looking at the direction of the seawater below.

Honestly, he didn’t really want to go down.

Because both descending and ascending were too boring.

He was almost developing deep‑sea phobia; just looking into the water below, all he felt was infinite darkness, confinement, loneliness...

"Logically speaking, at the one‑million‑meter level there shouldn’t be any new mastermind behind the scenes."

"But we still have to go down."

"I’m just not going any farther. Five hundred thousand meters is enough for me to train under water pressure; if it’s not, I’ll keep diving."

"For exploration of those ultra-deep waters, I don’t need to go in person. I’ll just leave it to the diving robots under my command."

Their intelligence is extremely high, and they’re not afraid of losing their way in the sea.

So, Liu Jun allocated a portion of the divers, about a thousand or so, and had them begin diving downward in all directions.

They didn’t need oxygen supplies, so solo diving posed no problem at all.

"You don’t have to worry about water pressure or oxygen. Dive into waters ten million meters deep, record all kinds of data, and immediately surface!"

Before they set out, Liu Jun warned these divers, "This Akusu itself, while commanding the team, has already explored to a depth of 23.86 million meters."

"The currents there are indeed more dangerous."

"Ordinary Eternal Compasses will all fail, and once these divers lose their bearings... it’s very easy for them to be completely lost in the deep sea."

After sending off this batch of divers, Liu Jun began continuing his cultivation at this depth, planning to raise himself to the level of perfection in the Tenth Stage as early as possible.

Liu Jun let out a long sigh, suddenly feeling incomparably small.

"This stretch of ocean is not small; its scale is measured in billions of light-years."

"The ultimate human civilization only reaches the million-meter level..."

"It’s like poking a one-millimeter hole on Earth... utterly inconspicuous. Humanity is too insignificant."

Let alone a million-meter ocean; a light-year, ten light-years... in terms of water depth, are, strictly speaking, all just shallow waters.

This couldn’t help but raise a question in Liu Jun’s mind: if civilization stacked forward another hundred versions, would there be a chance to break through to a depth of one light-year?

And there, what would be?

Nature truly is majestic and magnificent, unfathomably deep. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

The more advanced a civilization is, the more it reveres nature.

After sighing with emotion, Liu Jun began earnestly cultivating his realm, preparing to attack the Eighth Layer of the Tenth Stage.

At the same time, he began to reflect, "That Akusu is crazy, but the line of thought of their ancient Akusu civilization is actually very viable!"

"They count as a powerful civilization in deep-sea exploration, establishing a deep-sea fish race. With a massive number of fish, they’ll eventually be able to probe the deep sea..."

"This might be the only means to explore the vast deep sea on the scale of light-years."

The Akusu civilization really wasn’t destroyed by Akusu. Their destruction came at the hands of a Snowflake civilization from the same era.

After the Akusu civilization perished, Akusu followed the operating principles of the civilization that created him, trying to become a deep-sea fish race.

Right now, Liu Jun also intended to follow this path. "Their path was clearly incomplete, with the intelligence of a five-year-old..."

Liu Jun’s gaze flickered.

"While I’m cultivating here, I may as well multitask. With my powerful Wisdom, I can perfect Akusu’s fish-race civilization technology."

Thinking of this, Liu Jun took out a Gear Divine Artifact Series shaped like a round gear. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

This was the core technology of Akusu.

"Perfect it and create a deep-sea fish race..."

"The bragging Akusu did before—let me be the one to realize it."

"In the depths of the sea there truly are endless masterminds and deep-sea fish races who regard the upper-layer human civilization as their biological parents, laying strings of fish eggs—Divine Objects—in the seawater."

"The fish eggs sink into the deep sea, constantly combining, increasing the number of their race."

Liu Jun’s lips curved slightly.

If such a mastermind and that kind of seafloor ecology were exposed and revealed to the world, it would probably be quite entertaining.

Just like Liu Jun had said before.

No new Tenth-Stage maps, and the wild ones are too trash?

No problem, I’ll create new maps and fabricate an ancient mastermind civilization.

Ten years, twenty years, thirty years.

Liu Jun stayed in seclusion without cease.

The gear was modified by Liu Jun and transformed into a Single-Cell Divine Object Series.

The gear’s teeth turned into cellular flagella.

All the crystallized Wisdom of the Akusu civilization was improved by Liu Jun, and he developed the first version of primitive intelligent life.

The Seafloor Single-Cell Divine Object Series!

Whoosh.

The seawater surged; the first cell on the seafloor was born in the hands of God, ignoring the erasure of Chaos, quietly drifting in the water.

Vaguely, this single-cell Divine Object actually manifested a wholly different, hazy sort of Wisdom.

"With the Wisdom Divine Power I possess, I might really be about to enact a Genesis in the sea."

He gazed at the single-cell life in his hand, his expression incomparably deep. "I don’t know if I’ve opened Pandora’s Magic Box and released some kind of thing."

"I hope you can explore the oceans on the scale of light-years and let present-day civilization reclaim a territorial scale on the level of light-years!"
