Dragon's Origin

"The whale's meat will be eaten clean by those big and small fish, big sea monsters and small sea monsters within a month or two at most," Wang Sheng answered, following the old Taoist's question. "Then the remaining skeleton will slowly sink to the very bottom of the sea."

The old Taoist could understand this, just like the demon beasts in the Perpetual Kill Ground, wouldn't their flesh and blood be eaten by the surrounding insects, leaving only the skeleton?

"The whale's skeleton will nourish tiny, invisible things in the ocean, and those tiny things will in turn nourish slightly larger things." Wang Sheng didn't know how to explain the concept of bacteria and microorganisms to the old Taoist, so he could only describe it as invisible to the naked eye. "The big eat the small, the strong eat the weak. In short, a cyclical biosphere will form around the whale's skeleton. I call this 'whale fall'."

"Whale fall?" The old Taoist couldn't imagine what those tiny, invisible things looked like, but he could understand the principle. He couldn't help but chew on the words 'whale fall', lost in thought.

"This whale fall will probably exist for hundreds of years." Wang Sheng imagined the knowledge from Earth and increased the time by several times. Seeing the old Taoist's thoughtful expression, he said with a smile, "It's actually just another way of saying 'dust to dust, earth to earth' in the ocean."

"Interesting." The old Taoist said with a smile, "So, in fact, the ocean is sometimes connected to the land?"

"Everything changes, but the principle remains the same." Wang Sheng nodded and said, "The biosphere is actually such a cyclical process. The Way of Nature is nothing more than this."

"The Way of Nature?" The light in the old Taoist's eyes flickered, and the smile on his face increased.

"It's done!" Wang Sheng turned the huge chunk of meat cut from the "squid whiskers" in his hand, handed a piece to the old Taoist, took a piece himself, and began to eat heartily.

The old Taoist was not polite, nor was he particular about not eating meat. He also began to devour it. Wang Sheng was a food expert. How could the things he personally grilled taste bad? Comprehending the Way of Nature was a huge matter, but eating was also a huge matter. Moreover, isn't eating and drinking also the Way of Nature?

The two of them ate happily, but before they could finish, one of the flying mounts had already begun the process of advancing.

Demon beasts are different from humans. When humans advance, they will have a long period of spiritual energy tempering. During this period, the advancing person is actually relatively dangerous and must advance in a safe place or with someone protecting them.

But demon beasts are different. The environment in which demon beasts survive is even harsher, which also leads to the demon beasts having to advance as quickly as possible, otherwise they will only be killed by the various demon beasts around them that are eyeing them covetously. As for spiritual energy tempering, it will be completed slowly over a long period of time after the advancement.

Wang Sheng was seeing a demon beast advance for the first time, so he was very curious. But when Wang Sheng saw that the flying mount had completed everything in less than five minutes, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

"Is it over?" Wang Sheng was incredible, this was too fast, right?

"Normal!" The old Taoist explained the process of demon beast advancement, which was also considered to be popularizing science for Wang Sheng. At the same time, the old Taoist also felt a sigh of relief in his heart. Wang Sheng finally had many things he didn't know.

"I see." Wang Sheng nodded: "This is because different environments lead to different evolutionary directions. The principle of survival of the fittest is still universal."

"Survival of the fittest?" After thinking for a while, the old Taoist understood the principle and frowned and asked again: "Is this also the Way of Nature?"

"Of course!" Wang Sheng replied without thinking: "This is the purest Way of Nature."

The theory of evolution is already the most mainstream theory in biology on Earth. Although there are occasional exceptions in some extreme environments, it can be said that it is 99% applicable. This has been confirmed by many disciplines such as genetics and ecology. Some things are universal even in this new world.

This seven-star flying mount was promoted to eight-star. In the next two or three months, it will continue to improve its strength and slowly complete the process of spiritual energy tempering.

After the first one was promoted, the second one started to advance the next day, also from seven-star to eight-star. However, the remaining two were not so fast. They were already seven-star, and after eating the super sperm whale meat for seven or eight consecutive days on the island, they finally advanced one after another.

In two consecutive days, Wang Sheng and the old Taoist had two more legendary flying mounts. The flying speed and distance were farther, the endurance was better, and the combat effectiveness was greatly increased. As long as they waited for a few months, they would have the true strength of the legendary realm.

This trip to the sea, Wang Sheng and the old Taoist made a lot of money.

Needless to say, increasing knowledge is inevitable and certain. Just the benefits that can be seen and touched, Zhu Xingsheng's treasure, Wang Sheng absorbed a nine-star Yuan Soul, the soul card collected the super Yuan Souls of two super demon beasts, tons of super demon beast meat, and two legendary flying mounts, and two eight-star mounts, this is almost too much to count.

The old Taoist's Taoist's method of emptying and guarding the stillness has also been improved, and the old Taoist has more understanding of the Way of Nature. The detailed sea chart, any one of them, can make any master covet it.

Originally, I thought I could leave after the flying mount broke through, but what Wang Sheng didn't expect was that the old Taoist was so fascinated by thinking that he directly began to retreat here to comprehend.

This is definitely impossible to leave. Not only that, Wang Sheng also has to help protect the law. This is not the Old Monarch Temple, there is a safe quiet room, it is in the crater of the volcano, and some flying demon beasts will fly over from time to time, and the movement is not small.

The latest novels are first published on 6/9 books/bars/!

Fortunately, the two flying mounts that are already in the legendary realm are acting as bodyguards at this time. They are flying around above the crater, and their increasingly powerful aura announces that they are the temporary owners of this place. No flying demon beasts dare to easily approach, and the old Taoist's short retreat can be considered calm.

The old Taoist's retreat was entirely due to Wang Sheng. Wang Sheng has mentioned the Way of Nature several times along the way, whether it is whale fall or the subsequent biosphere cycle, or the survival of the fittest, which has given the old Taoist great inspiration. Wang Sheng has made great contributions to being able to retreat at this time.

For a full five days and five nights, the old Taoist never opened his eyes. Finally, when Wang Sheng had been waiting hard for the old Taoist to leave the customs by cooking seafood porridge, the old Taoist woke up.

"Serve me two bowls of porridge." As soon as the old Taoist woke up, he immediately shouted at Wang Sheng without politeness.

Wang Sheng smiled immediately when he heard the old Taoist's voice. However, just as Wang Sheng had finished serving the porridge, he heard the old Taoist exclaim: "Oops!"
