Chapter 363: Daoheart Gene
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Monkey King Gene x10 + Daoheart Gene x10 = Sun Wukong Gene!!!
The number ten represented perfection; this evolutionary formula gave him a sense of deja-vu.
After each gene was strengthened to 10 points, they would contain a type of supreme logic of the heavens and earth, invoking a change that could transform something rotten into something magical.
The Spiritual Stone Monkey Gene became the higher-leveled Monkey King Gene, while the Beast King Gene became the Daoheart Gene.
A s.h.i.+mmering starry path took form in his genetic map, leading to an incomparably majestic dark star in the depths of the starry s.p.a.ce. It felt like it was waiting to be awakened.
Sun Wukong Gene: grand-grade heavenly immortal art verifies the dao, proficient in the seventy-two transformations.
These two sentences seemed simple, but they contained much cryptic profoundness.
Feng Lin contemplated it and suddenly recalled chapter seventeen of the novel ‘Journey to the West’. It was at the temple where Sun Wukong achieved his dao. There was a single sentence, “Gaining the inheritance of a grand-grade heavenly immortal art, but if one doesn’t have the innate root, it would be unbearable to train in this!”
The grand-grade heavenly immortal art was the basic cultivation art Sun Wukong cultivated.
The seventy-two transformations were his most powerful skill!
The ability of the Sun Wukong Gene might truly have a great connection with this particular cultivation art.
But as to its exact abilities, how wondrous would it be exactly?
For now, Feng Lin wasn’t able to know clearly either. Because the road ahead was still too long, there were still things that weren’t completely clear for now.
But the path would always be beneath his feet. He just needed to traverse it step by step. There was no need for him to bite off more than he could chew and became hasty just for the moment.
Thinking too far ahead wouldn’t have any benefits.
His future path was already laid out very clearly before him. Although there was still fog ahead, he simply had to continue down this path step by step. He wouldn’t be lost due to the fog.
The medicinal effect of the Dragon-Tiger Exchange Fetus Pill was extremely strong.
Although he had already broken through to the grand cultivator realm, he still obtained over 700 genetic points.
Feng Lin’s heart stirred. He started to add points to strengthen the Monkey King Gene, but his genetic potential didn’t change.
He didn’t feel too surprised.
Every level up in mythological genes would evoke a great increase of 10x the required amount of genetic potential compared to the previous level.
Transcendent genes needed 100 points of genetic potential to be strengthened once. It seemed like the higher-level Heaven genes would require 1,000 points of genetic potential to be strengthened by one.
After performing the deduction, he was only left with a spa.r.s.e amount of genetic potential. It was completely insufficient for him to use.
He could temporarily forget about strengthening the Monkey King Gene. He should put more effort into researching how he should evolve his gene to the Daoheart Gene.
=====
Gene: Daoheart Gene
Grade: Perfect-grade Heaven Gene
Strengthening Tally: 0
Ability: Sprouting of Dao Heart, Heaven and Man as one
=====
This was actually a perfect-grade Heaven Gene!
The information revealed was extremely simple, yet its ability was extremely impressive.
Just the words ‘Heaven and Man as One’ would cause one to have countless fantasies.
Heaven and Man as one was an ultimate state that Huaxia cultivators pursued.
After the fusion of essence, spirit, and qi together with the heavenly dao, one would reach a wondrous state where they could control the power of the sky and earth, of mountains and rivers, of stars, sun, and moon with a wave of their hands, becoming one with the heavens.
Using the infinitesimal power of humans as a pivot to draw upon the might of heaven and earth, one could gain control over boundless possibilities.
It was simple in words, but the meaning contained within wasn’t simple at all. It contained immense potential.
But how should one go about the fusion?
That was the question!
Branches from a genetic tree would always start from the most basic genes, before being combined and evolved.
Feng Lin began to deduce, consuming his genetic potential for the sake of obtaining the evolutionary formula for the Daoheart Gene.
His genetic potential was rapidly exhausted like water breaking a dam.
Genetic potential -4.2, -4.2, -4.2…
The evolutionary formula of a Heaven Gene consumed over 200 points of genetic potential before it was revealed.
In his genetic map, with the Daoheart Gene as the starting point, the streams of light flowed downwards and connected with two dark stars.
Daoheart Gene = Minute-Knowledge Gene x9 + Meditation Gene x8
This was a Heaven Gene that required the combination of two transcendent genes. Each of them had extraordinary might and ability.
Just awakening one of them would allow someone in the elite cultivator realm to run amok and do whatever he wanted at that particular realm.
=====
Gene: Minute-Knowledge Gene
Grade: Flawless-grade transcendent gene
Strengthening Tally: 0
Ability: Discern the whole picture from one tiny clue, a fulcrum to lift the entire world
=====
Gene: Meditation Gene
Grade; Perfect-grade transcendent gene
Strengthening Tally: 0
Ability: Invisible meditation, perceiving the universe, manipulating the mult.i.tude of things
=====
The abilities of the two genes were different. Each of them was a transcendent gene and he would still need to combine the lower-level primeval genes and basic genes to form them, building a genetic tree as stated by mythological gene theory.
The higher one’s cultivation was, the more the number of genes involved would be.
Cultivation would become much more complex, and in the end, one’s genetic point would look like the starry sky.
Without supreme intelligence, one would never be able to walk on the path of cultivation until the end, let alone accomplis.h.i.+ng different objectives needed to awaken the various genes.
For ordinary people, they could use an entire lifetime and still fail to determine the proper sequence of a genetic evolution formula.
But to Feng Lin, this point wasn’t a great problem. With his genetic equation, everything was possible.
A smile appeared on his face as he continued to deduce by using his genetic potential.
Genetic potential -1.2, -1.2, -1.2…
As the genetic potential was exhausted, two more dark stars were deduced and the branching out continued, linking up with two more dark stars.
The branches extended down to the next lower level.
In total, there were three levels and after deducing everything, the complete evolutionary formula for the Daoheart Gene appeared.
If the first level was the sequence to evolve a Heaven Gene, the second level would be for transcendent genes, while the third level would be for primeval genes. The formula was shown in his vision.
Minute-Knowledge Gene = Wisdom Gene x7 + Knowledge Gene x8
Meditation Gene = Awareness Gene x10 + Visualize Gene x7
====
Gene: Wisdom Gene
Grade: Perfect-grade Primeval Gene

=====
There were actually four transcendent genes that extended out from this layer.
Also, it didn’t end like this. The branching out continued.
At the third layer: The evolutionary order of primeval gene.
Wisdom Gene = Intellect Gene x9 + Thinking Gene x9
Knowledge Gene = Learning Gene x10 + Memory Gene x6
Awareness Gene = Idea Gene x9 + Perception Gene x5
