Chapter 700 The Fun Seekers Start Having Fun
"The cells of Sofia possess extremely strong fusion ability; ordinary people simply cannot withstand them, even with the gene lock activated, it's no exception." Chu Xuan considered the matter at hand, "However, Wu Ye managed to endure it."
The implication was that Sun Wukong had secretly provided him with such an opportunity.
"The fusion with Sofia's cells is not my doing." Sun Wukong shook his head, "It was his own mind power."
To say Sun Wukong helped Wu Ye, perhaps it was awakening his inner brilliance, allowing him to see with greater frequency, thereby enhancing his mental acuity.
To put it simply, it was making his brain computation more powerful, enabling him to memorize more, and understand previously incomprehensible reasoning and knowledge.
But understanding is one thing, taking action is another.
The ability to fuse Sofia's cells wasn't because of the knowledge Wu Ye had learned, but rather the gradual enhancement of his mind through learning, leading him to unknowingly incorporate Sofia's cells as his own.
"Mind power, huh?" Chu Xuan nodded, "According to my hypothesis, a gene lock at the fourth stage involves the soul, will, and mind since the gene lock doesn't fully represent biological DNA."
"Honestly, the existence of the gene lock in humans is quite peculiar, surpassing the Theory of Evolution, as if——"
"This lock was artificially created."
Sun Wukong wasn't surprised by Chu Xuan's thoughts; within the Victory Team, the scientific level and technological equipment here are not inferior to what Chu Xuan could exchange from the Main God, perhaps even more advanced.
This wasn't suggesting the technology within the Main God is inferior to the Victory Team, it's just that the high-tech products Chu Xuan could afford with reward points are relatively low-grade.
Although theory at the Main God is affordable, Chu Xuan needs to spend quite a few reward points to exchange for the corresponding production line.
The materials to produce ordinary bullets are cheap, but the materials for various precision instruments or even assembly line factories are not cheap, and Chu Xuan alone can't simply assemble a large factory with just materials, can he?
Simple production in the early stages is sufficient, but in later stages, manufacturing and producing various high-tech weapons and equipment, it's more cost-effective to exchange for ready-made products from the Main God.

Therefore, by leveraging the more advanced equipment from the Victory Team compared to what he exchanged from the Main God, Chu Xuan was able to study the characteristics of Sofia's cells in a very short time.
Moreover, in the Ultraman universe, defense teams and the like often possess black technology exceeding the world by decades or even centuries.
"The gene lock is the aftermath of rule modification by an existence named 'Gu' in this infinite world, meaning as long as one considers themselves human, even robots can activate the gene lock." Sun Wukong revealed the truth to him.
"Is it that ridiculous?"
Chu Xuan's expression wasn't one of surprise, merely reflecting his lack of emotion, yet he was indeed shocked by this claim.
Robots can activate gene lock?
Rule modification?
Gu?
"No wonder the Ultraman world is in the infinite realm, after all, in this world, humans seem to more easily trigger the gene lock."
Chu Xuan understood an answer to one of his questions and then asked: "Does 'Gu' refer to Pangu?"
"Sort of."
"Understood." Chu Xuan nodded — sort of, meaning it's indeed the legendary Pangu, but not like the myth of opening heaven and earth, his very being is human.
"What relation does Zheng Zha have with it?"
"He's essentially a fragment of it." Sun Wukong said flatly, "If he can grow up, perhaps he could revive the glory of Gu, but there are many fragments of Gu, and they can be cloned."
Chu Xuan said, "Canon and fan fiction, and... clones?"
Regarding the speculation of clones, Chu Xuan, based on his understanding of the Main God's cultivation style and human creation authority, felt that since the Main God is intended to cultivate strong individuals, it would definitely create talented reincarnators in Reincarnation Space.
In the future, a battle against oneself is inevitable.
Only by defeating oneself, can one truly be powerful!
"There are indeed clones." Sun Wukong nodded, removing the watch from his wrist, revealing a meaningful smile, "And only those who have activated the gene lock qualify to be cloned, people like me who don't even have a gene lock are considered the trash of trash in the Main God's program settings... Despite my ability to dismantle the Main God."
Chu Xuan: "······"
Ignoring this statement, Chu Xuan continued to ask: "You previously mentioned the Main God Space is a training ground for rehiring veteran employees; who am I a fragment of?"
"Who do you think it is?" Sun Wukong asked rhetorically.
"A character from mythical legends?" Chu Xuan adjusted his slipping glasses, "I can only think of one suitable candidate, Hongjun from the 'Investiture of the Gods' novel."
When saying this, Chu Xuan was somewhat uncertain.
Because orthodox Taoists won't acknowledge Hongjun's status, but stories stem from human imagination, as long as the public recognizes it, it's an entity with absolute influence.
However, in reality, Hongjun only holds significant influence in the web literature circle; if in reality, one encounters a Taoist worshipping Hongjun, then he's definitely a fake Taoist.
Of course, this is merely in reality.
In this infinite world, perhaps Dao Ancestor Hongjun truly exists.
