Becoming a creator in prehistory

Chapter 5 The golden people under the tree of life
A moment is an eternity.

In Yuan Chu's view, his eternal life is not very special.

With the support of Poincaré's return, everything in the material cycle will not die completely, even if the destruction of the universe is not the end, it is not a kind of eternity.

Unlike the immutable static eternity, the process of moving towards eternity in the process of change will emit dazzling light.

This is what he has lost and what he longs to see.

"Luca, it's time to start."

After [-] million years of growth, Luca at this time has become larger than a single-celled fungus.

However, her two iconic "braids" are still conspicuous.

I saw that she stuffed a few pieces of fungus into her body, like chewing gum, and began to "chew".

After a while, the fungus in her body disappeared, and she spat out a golden spore ball.

And this is the embryonic form of intelligent life designed by Yuan Chu.

Although the ecological environment of the earth at this time has been improved, there are still huge differences from later generations.

It is difficult for human beings to adapt to the original ecology at this time, so he simply redesigned a new species based on fungi.

Yuan Chu hung the golden spore ball on the tall fungal tree. Under the infiltration of nutrients, the spore ball started to grow.

In the past week alone, the spore ball has swelled to the size of a tire.

Through the sunlight, it can be vaguely seen that a humanoid embryo is wriggling among the spores.

This new species was designed by Yuan Chu with reference to humans. Fungi and humans are both eukaryotic organisms. From the perspective of evolution, they are on the same trunk. With the assistance of Luca, it is relatively easy to realize.

This was indeed the case. When the embryo finally matured after a year, the golden spore ball fell from the tree like a ripe fruit.

Accompanied by a crisp sound of "click", the spore ball completely shattered when it collided with the ground.

A humanoid creature, naked and covered in an egg white-like slime, then manifested.

This new species, born on the basis of fungi, is very similar to humans in terms of structure and appearance.

The only difference is that the metabolism is fast and the life expectancy is estimated to be only half that of humans.

However, Yuan Chu didn't think this was a defect, on the contrary he was very satisfied with it.

A faster metabolic rate not only reduces the lifespan, but also makes the growth rate and physical fitness of the new species outstanding, which will be very helpful for survival and reproduction.

In order to help the new species rapidly expand the population, Yuan Chu even retained the characteristics of microbial self-reproduction.

Just as he was admiring his masterpiece, the newly born child suddenly burst into tears.

He sat on the ground, holding the golden spore fragments that were shattered all over the ground, crying so sadly.

At this moment, the child felt a tickle on his neck, and he looked sideways at his shoulder while crying.

It turned out that Luca came to the child's shoulder at some point, and she gently stroked the other's cheek with the flagellum, as if to comfort him.

The child surprisingly didn't continue to cry, he seemed to feel the connection between himself and Luca.

At this time, Yuan Chu's voice also came into his mind through consciousness.

"Since you were born of a fungus, you should be called Fengers.

I am your creator, welcome to this world. "

Yuan Chu originally wanted to express goodwill, but he forgot that his consciousness cannot be carried by everyone, and eternity is a burden that ordinary life cannot bear.

The next moment, golden blood gushed out from Feng Gesi's seven orifices, his amber pupils continued to dilate, and his spirit began to slacken.

Luka on the side eagerly stroked Feng Gesi's face with the flagellum, not wanting him to fall into a deep sleep.

Unfortunately, this fresh life has just begun, and it seems to be coming to an end.

At this critical moment, everything around suddenly fell into a stillness, no, this is static eternity.

In the immutable eternity, even death is not allowed.

After some rescue, Feng Gesi's life was saved by Yuan Chu.

This incident made him understand how lethal his own consciousness is to ordinary life.

…………

In the next period of time, Feng Gesi, who survived the catastrophe, lived and grew up under the fungus tree, drank the stream water when he was thirsty, and picked the surrounding mushrooms to eat directly when he was hungry.

Thanks to his optimized digestive system, his ability to digest mushroom fungi is so strong that he can even ignore all kinds of deadly mushroom toxins.

And this point is also crucial, after all, the earth's ecology at this time has been greatly affected by Yuan Chu, and various fungi are extremely prosperous.

It must be an organism that can resist the fungus and feed on it to survive in such a plant-free environment.

Humans will see each other tomorrow if they eat Flammulina velutipes, so it is naturally impossible for this kind of digestion ability to adapt to the current environment.

Yuan Chu finally decided to leave human beings to the natural evolution. He believes that even if the future changes, it will still have inherent inertia.

If human ancestors really do not appear in the future, it will not be too late for him to intervene.

While he was making plans in his mind, Feng Gesi knelt down under the fungus tree, kissing the roots devoutly.

Seeing this, Yuan Chu felt helpless. Although he saved Feng Gesi's life, the other party still left some sequelae.

The traces of eternal consciousness cannot be erased, and the information he conveys will be imprinted in the target's mind forever like a steel seal.

This was not Yuan Chu's original intention, but there was nothing he could do about it.

The only good news is that what he conveyed to Feng Gesi before was not mandatory, and the influence on the other party was fairly limited.

Despite this accident, Yuan Chu's actions will not stop, and he still expects the earth to be full of vitality.

Not long after, the second batch of golden spore embryos on the tree crown also matured.

With the precedent of Feng Gesi, this time he did not come into contact with these new species rashly.

Under the action of high-speed metabolism, Feng Gesi was already mature at this time.

As the only adult individual in the group, he became the object of the same kind to rely on, and naturally became the leader of the group.

Feng Gesi was not a natural leader, and in Yuan Chu's view, his methods were very immature.

However, in an environment where food is abundant and there is no pressure to survive, there is no doubt that he has enough time to grow into a qualified leader.

As time went on, the area around the fungus tree became more and more lively.

Seeing that the new species had taken shape, Yuan Chu asked Luka to stop producing golden spores and start producing other species instead.

In the following days, spore balls of various colors fell from the tree from time to time, giving birth to different types of creatures.

Everything that cannot be understood will always be attributed to miracles.

In particular, Feng Gesi has been influenced by the eternal consciousness, and he believes in the existence of the Creator.

Witnessing all kinds of life blooming on the top of the tree, the most primitive totem worship quickly spread among the ethnic groups.

The sacred tree, the world tree, the tree of life, the golden people under the tree, etc., the legends fabricated out of thin air became very popular for a while.

Just like parents standing in the house, they don't pay attention to what the children are playing in the yard.

Yuan Chu didn't pay attention to these changes, even if he knew he would just laugh it off.

Since they are willing to create a sense of belonging with false beliefs, so be it.

However, just as Yuan Chu and Luka continued to enrich the species, an unprecedented event broke out in the village...
