Gene Unlocking: I Evolve Every Day
Chapter 572 - 456: Ancestral Gods Declare War on the Aliens
The vast and boundless earth stretches out endlessly.
A giant deity stands tall, using supreme power to repair the sky.
Golden rays transform into stardust, filling the shattered atmosphere and mending it.
Not only that, some golden light also "leaks" through the fingers of the Golden Giant God, sprinkling onto the positions where Australia, the small days, and the peninsula once were.
People can almost see with the naked eye the atmospheric layer continuously recondensing under the effect of the starlight.
The lands of Australia, the small days, and the peninsula, which had disappeared, also continuously recondense with the golden light.
Of course, Australia, the small days, and the peninsula are on the earth; only nearby people can see them, while others cannot.
The vast majority of people only see currents gathering in the sky, with wisps of white clouds silently appearing.
In an instant, the sky, which had been hollow due to the disappearance of the atmosphere, became blue and magnificent!
The sky is bluer than before and clearer than ever.
It seems as if this is not a recondensing but the regeneration of a new sky!
...
Inside the super base.
Shen Xia, Liu Kexin, Li Yajing, and Julia Giannini watched Lu Li transform into a Golden Giant God, repairing the sky and bathing in the sun, and they were spellbound.
An elderly relative of Peng Erping, upon seeing this scene, was moved to tears and muttered excitedly, "The myths are true! The myth of Wa Huang repairing the sky is true!"
Standing next to him, Peng Erping was already stunned, incredulously saying, "Although I’ve known Mr. Lu for a long time and knew he possesses extraordinary Immortal Techniques, I never thought I would witness the mythical scene of Nuwa repairing the sky. Mr. Lu indeed possesses vast Divine Power and boundless Mana, which fills one with reverence!" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
Nuwa repairing the sky is one of the most famous ancient myths of Huaxia.
It is said that in ancient times, the sky collapsed, and the world fell into great disaster.
Nuwa could not bear to see living beings suffer, so she melted five-colored stones to mend the sky, cut the legs of the divine turtle to support the four poles, subdued floods, and quelled fierce beasts, harmonized Yin and Yang, and removed malice, allowing all beings to live in peace.
This story is recorded in works like "Liezi," "Huainanzi," and "Lunheng," and has been passed down orally among the people.
It can be said that the story of Nuwa repairing the sky is known by everyone in Huaxia.
Before today, no one took this story seriously, considering it just a myth.
Neither Peng Erping and his relatives nor the others in the super base ever took it seriously.
Why didn’t everyone believe it to be true?
Because it was too fantastical!
Especially in today’s society, humans can clearly detect the presence of the atmosphere and know its composition as a collection of gases held by gravity, forming what we call the sky and clouds.
If Earth’s gravity weakens and air pressure decreases, the air would escape into the sky more rapidly, eventually leaving Earth without an atmosphere, or with too thin of one to sustain human life.
For proof of this, look no further than the neighboring Mars.
Imagine the atmosphere is made up of countless gases held by gravity; if part of it is missing, how could human effort possibly repair it?
The ozone hole over Antarctica was discovered back in 1984, and even though it has shrunk notably over the years, it remains the size of North America, and no one has been able to fix it.
In people’s minds, problems that science can’t solve might not even be solvable by gods.
This fixed mindset is why no one believed the myth of Wa Huang repairing the sky to be true.
However, at this moment!
But now!
Gu Wei, Qin Liang, Wang Yu, and everyone else witnessed the birth of a divine miracle with their own eyes.
They witnessed Mr. Lu replicate the Supreme Divine Miracle of "Nuwa repairing the sky"!
As a result, it’s hard for everyone not to believe!
Some older, relatively more superstitious people trembled all over after witnessing this scene.
They truly did not expect that in their lifetime, the scenes from myth and legend would manifest vividly before their eyes!
Everyone in the super base buzzed with excitement and whispers.
"Oh my God!"
"It’s simply unbelievable!"
"Though I long knew Mr. Lu wielded the power to destroy heaven and earth, I really couldn’t have imagined he’d repair the sky and bathe in the sun!"
"Mr. Lu previously disclosed that he has reached the ’Yang God’ stage in the Daoist cultivation system, being truly a celestial being. It’s no wonder he could repair the sky and bathe in the sun. In my view, he is no different from the Ancient Gods recorded in myths."
"No, I don’t think so."
"Huh? Even after Mr. Lu displayed such power, do you still think he can’t compare to the ancient ones?"
"That’s not what I mean; I mean that the Ancient Gods of legends might not be able to compare to Mr. Lu. Think about it: how many Ancient Gods are recorded to have performed the feat of repairing the sky and bathing in the sun? Until now, I’ve only heard of Nuwa repairing the sky, Pangu creating the world, Erlang moving mountains, and Hou Yi shooting down suns. Most myths lack the element of ’creation.’ With Mr. Lu now mending the atmosphere, it’s evident he has mastered ’creation,’ making him more remarkable than moving mountains or shooting down suns. I just wonder if, like Pangu, he could create a new world. If he could..."
