“Zhu Tiangang!” Dao Ancestor Hongjun sat on the praying mat. He slowly opened his eyes and spoke Fatty’s full name.
Fatty sat upright and listened with attention.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun slowly spoke, “Although before this you were mocked by countless people as trash, in truth, your talent in cultivation is extremely outstanding. Ordinary mythological paths are not suited to you; this is why you remained an ordinary human for so many years. Once you embarked on the right path, you would be able to soar into the sky with a single step. Your future and potential shall be boundless…”
Fatty had a look of contemplation on his face. He understood that the boundless future Dao Ancestor Hongjun was speaking about was that of paragon god and devil that was suitable for him. He grew even more serious and nodded.
At this moment, Dao Ancestor Hongjun’s tone suddenly changed. He then continued, “However, how can someone receive knowledge about the great dao for no cause or reason? Given how incomparably valuable knowledge of a paragon god and devil’s mythological path is, its price is incomparably astronomical as well. Have you thought things through clearly?”
“Dao Ancestor, I understand.” As long as I can embark on this paragon god and devil’s mythological path, I am willing to pay any price.” Fatty spoke with no hesitation.
Seeing how excited the fatty was, Feng Lin silently smiled in his heart.
As for the clone, Dao Ancestor Hongjun, his expression remained as calm as ever, exuding an aura of profoundness. He calmly continued, “Since you can understand this, very well, I shall transmit to you the knowledge of a paragon god and devil’s path. Listen well.”
The kindness of someone transmitting the dao to you wasn’t in any way inferior compared to the kindness of your parents giving birth to you.
Fatty’s expression turned serious. “Zhu Tiangang respectfully listens!”
“Now, what you’ve awakened is a mid-grade primeval gene, the Big Belly Gene. Also, the special ability of the Big Belly Gene is that it allows you to devour everything and would rapidly enable you to digest them to strengthen yourself. Your skin will be extremely tough; the thick layers of fat can form a natural defensive layer to dissipate large amounts of blunt force. Next, what you have to do is to combine the Big Belly Gene with the Demonic Aura Gene and Pig Fetus Gene to evolve to the Pig Demon Gene.”
“What? Pig Demon Gene?!” Fatty shouted in shock. The flesh of his face scrunched together, even his eyes disappeared as a look of difficulty appeared on his face.
Where was the promised paragon god and devil’s path? Why did it become the Pig Demon Gene?
This name didn’t sound like a paragon at all. It didn’t sound like a mythical legendary being at all!
Upon awakening such a gene, wouldn’t he become a monster that looked like half-pig and half-human?
Although fatty was often called a pig due to his size and fatness, he didn’t really want to become a real pig!
Dao Ancestor Hongjun’s expression turned solemn. “Why? You look down on this gene?”
Fatty had a struggling expression. He postured like a little girl with his body that was over 1,000 kg in weight. Truly, the sight of this was extremely eye-piercing and disgusting indeed.
“I thought it was supposed to be a paragon god and devil’s mythological path? Why did it become a pig demon?” Fatty had no way to accept this.
Greed would always be present in the hearts of humans.
Before this when fatty didn’t know if he could become a cultivator, he could even accept the most common Big Belly Gene and was filled with wild joy by using it to become an interstellar cultivator.
Now, after he learned about the existence of paragon god and devil’s pathways, he naturally yearned for them.
The more things one obtained, the more he would fear losing everything.
Now that there was a paragon god and devil’s path before his eyes, he was afraid he might truly miss it.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun slowly continued, “Don’t belittle this Pig Demon Gene. This is a high-grade transcendent gene and can be extremely rare among genes of the same tier and grade. Also, as a human that can transform into a pig demon, you would have boundless strength, endless capacity in your belly and capable of devouring the heaven and earth. You would also be able to control high-quality demonic qi from the universe, manifesting gusts of black winds, flying up into the sky and tunneling in the ground. You would be able to do anything! Ordinary people would never be able to awaken such a gene. This is something one could only hope for but couldn’t actively seek after. If you are not willing to, just forget about everything then.”
“Don’t!” Fatty hurriedly spoke, feeling extremely anxious. “Dao Ancestor, I was wrong. I’m willing to evolve my genes into this Demon Pig Gene!”
Seeing that the fatty was so scared that he submitted, Dao Ancestor Hongjun had a faint smile on his face. “There’s no need for you to feel so miserable. If you continue to evolve the Pig Demon Gene by adding the Heavenly Dipper Gene and Banished Immortal Gene, it would evolve into the Zhu Ganglie Gene. Then you would officially step onto a paragon god and devil’s mythological path!”
Zhu Ganglie Gene…
Fatty’s expression changed after he heard that.
Why is it a pig (zhu)?
Could it be that he had to really embark on this path of becoming a pig? A path of no return.
“Zhu Ganglie Gene is a Heaven Gene that is above the transcendent gene tier. It is also a variation-grade Heaven Gene, it has boundless potential. Zhu Ganglie is a famous character in Ancient Huaxia Mythology. He was a great deity from the heavenly courts. Although he was reincarnated as a pig demon, he soon regained his memories and was proficient in the thirty-six transformations of the heavenly dipper. His combat prowess isn’t weak at all when compared to the various gods and deities!”
Dao Ancestor Hongjun revealed a little of Zhu Ganglie Gene’s origins. Fatty had his mouth wide open. The resentment he felt at having to become a pig was now completely dissipated.
Zhu Ganglie?
What deity is this? Why have I never heard of him before?
Dao Ancestor Hongjun said that this was a powerful deity in Huaxia Mythology which had reincarnated as a pig demon. However, Fatty had never heard any story like this before.
…
When Fatty thought about the scenes of Ancient Earth Era that he had seen on the planet earlier, he had a look of deep contemplation on his face.
My speculation was right. This Mythological Genes Association is in possession of many mythology secrets of different civilizations that have long vanished.
If Dao Ancestor Hongjun wasn’t lying, this Zhu Ganglie must be a deity from Huaxia Mythology whose information hasn’t been uncovered yet. Also, this should be a unique mythology path.
Fatty started to get excited, and he felt that the association was even more wondrous.
He discovered that he was very fated with this paragon god and devil path.
His own name even had the words ‘Tiangang’ (heavenly dipper). And if he continued on this mythology path, he would end up possessing the thirty-six transformations ability of the heavenly dipper.
Everything seemed destined.
When he thought of this, Fatty no longer hesitated. He tossed aside all his earlier reluctance and resentment.
Even if he really had to become a pig, he would become one willingly!
“Dao Ancestor Hongjun, I sincerely wish to cultivate this paragon god and devil path. Please enlighten me.” Fatty prostrated himself once more and spoke with incomparable sincerity. “As long as you grant me my wish, I will accomplish any test you want to set for me. I’m also willing to pay any price.”
Each of his words rang out with the force of his conviction.
This fatty felt more and more anxious. As for Dao Ancestor Hongjun, it was clear that he was no longer going to divulge anything easily.
Since Feng Lin had what the fatty desired the most in his hands, next, what he needed to do was to set up more tests and trials while making the fatty invest a lot before he granted him a slot to join the Mythological Genes Association.
If not, if the fatty joined too easily, he wouldn’t cherish it and wouldn’t feel any sense of loyalty or belonging to the association.
In order to prevent the secrets of the association from being leaked, Feng Lin naturally had to be cautious.
In addition, in Feng Lin’s eyes, this fatty was a fat lamb waiting to be slaughtered. He was so rich that he had unending amounts of star coins to be spent. How could Feng Lin give up the secrets of the mythological path to him if Feng Lin didn’t want to dip his hands into his wealth?
But in order to maintain the majestic presence of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Hongjun naturally wasn’t suited to talk about secular stuff like money. It would only undermine his presence.
The Dao Ancestor Hongjun’s clone which Feng Lin controlled naturally wouldn’t do such a stupid thing. He merely smiled faintly. “The complete set of knowledge of a paragon god and devil path isn’t something you can receive just by paying a price. The prerequisite is to see if you are worthy enough or not. You have to undertake the tests and see if you can become an association’s member before we talk further.”
“Dao Ancestor, I got it.” Fatty didn’t hesitate. “No matter what tests there are, I, Zhu Tiangang, will definitely put in all my efforts to pass them!”
This fatty was so nice to deceive!
Clone Hongjun exchanged glances with Feng Lin as they both shared a smile, knowing that this fatty had been completely deceived by the acts both of them put up.
“I have a dao song to pass on to everyone.”
Dao Ancestor Hongjun calmly smiled. His voice was filled with a sense of etherealism as though it drifted through countless distance. It was like the sound of a bell chime, so loud that even the dead could hear, baptizing the hearts of people.
“Laying high amidst the clouds, comprehending the true Dao, and assuming the role of a teacher beyond the universe, Pan Gu created Taichi with the existence of two dualities and the extension of the four phases. The one path of Dao was passed down to three, and the three split into two branches. All three were disciples of Hongjun, leading all in the path of Dao!!”
