Chapter 284: He Anxia's Decision to Leave (Part 2)

"

"Perhaps you can create entirely new strains of microorganisms."

"Like microorganisms with maxed-out toxin resistance, or those with maxed-out heat resistance..."

"Similarly..."

"You can also cultivate microorganisms with strong offensive abilities in the same way. While using corresponding cultivation methods to strengthen them, you can actively and artificially select outstanding individuals for further refinement."

"I call this cultivation method..."

"Selective Breeding and Artificial Cultivation."

He Anxia listened intently, feeling inspired and eager to start the process immediately. He was both excited and thrilled.

"I've come to the right place!"

"Indeed, my decision to join the Moon Embrace Sect was correct."

"If I hadn't joined the sect, I don't know how many years it would have taken me to figure out these insights, and I might never have been able to comprehend all of this on my own, even in a lifetime."

"The future... looks promising!"

"Biology Masters have an incredibly vast future ahead of them!"

"!!!"

In truth, He Anxia had been feeling lost and couldn't be sure if Biology Masters had a bright future.

After all, individual microorganisms were incredibly weak.

Even with the Beast Control Sect's unique cultivation techniques, which could use their own Essence Energy and secret techniques to cultivate microorganisms, helping them grow gradually, who knew if they could reach a higher level?

Perhaps...

Being able to handle the Eighth Realm might be their limit. In that case, wouldn't their future be sealed?

It was only after effortlessly defeating Ye Wusang that he made up his mind to join the Moon Embrace Sect.

But regarding the future of Biology Masters, he still felt lost and uncertain.

But now...

He vaguely saw a path to the future.

Limit?!

There was no limit!

Biology Masters had no limits, and neither did microorganisms.

Perhaps most microorganisms had limits, but there were bound to be some with exceptional talents. As long as they were selectively bred, generation after generation...

"Disciple understands!"

He Anxia's eyes shone with determination, and he was filled with confidence in the future.

"Good, good. That's all I need to hear."

Lin Fan smiled lightly, "Since you understand, go and meditate on it. I believe in you."

"Thank you, Master!"

He Anxia bowed deeply and turned to leave.

But Lin Fan suddenly called out to him.

"Wait a moment."

"Does Master have any instructions?"

"It's not exactly an instruction."

Lin Fan lowered his head slightly, and in the dim light, He Anxia saw Lin Fan's face, half in 'light' and the other half hidden in 'darkness'.

His aura suddenly became enigmatic.

He gave off a profound and unfathomable aura, and at that moment, Lin Fan slowly spoke, "I just have a suggestion."

"No matter what, don't give up on the microscopic path."

"Even if the path of the Biology Master reaches its end, and even if microorganisms no longer satisfy you, the microscopic world still holds infinite possibilities..."

"The microscopic world...?" He Anxia murmured.

He was certain that Lin Fan wouldn't warn him without reason; there must be a purpose behind his words!

"Yes."

"Perhaps one day in the future, you'll understand... what quantum means."

Lin Fan revealed a mysterious smile.

"Quantum?"

"..."

He Anxia's face was filled with confusion, yet he was also eagerly anticipating.

At the same time, he secretly made a decision. When he found out what quantum meant, he would be sure to inform Lin Fan immediately!

...

He Anxia left to meditate and gain enlightenment.

Lin Fan removed his 'disguise' and stopped 'pretending to be mysterious'.

In truth, he didn't enjoy this.

But he had no choice; to make people 'believe in you', one had to have some prestige, or who would believe him?

"I wonder how far his comprehension will go. He's paved a path for Biology Masters; he just needs to steadily move forward, and at the very least, he won't be weak."

Lin Fan stroked his chin, deep in thought, "As for the microscopic world..."

The microscopic world was too complex for him to fully understand, especially when it came to quantum mechanics.

Terms like quantum field, quantum superposition, quantum collapse, wave-particle duality...

Lin Fan himself only knew the most basic knowledge, like the fact that quantum particles were the smallest indivisible particles. As for the 'definitions', he had only heard them from others.

Even if he remembered them perfectly, he wouldn't reveal them.

He couldn't be sure if they were correct or not.

Those were just Earth's 'definitions'.

Who says that the definition of quantum is necessarily correct? Who says that Earth's science is definitely 'science'? He can only guide, guide He Anxia to understand and figure it out himself.

Fortunately, Lin Fan can confirm one thing—if He Anxia truly understands the intricacies of quantum, he will undoubtedly become terrifyingly powerful! Not to mention in the Immortal Martial Continent, even if he ascends to the higher realms, he will still be a formidable opponent.

It's not impossible for him to dominate the four directions.

"However, talking about those things now is still too far-fetched."

"For now... let's focus on the present."

Lin Fan was about to concentrate on trying to comprehend the method of cultivating 'Immortal Qi' within his body, but Ya Ya quietly spoke up, "Master, I have something I don't understand."

She moved closer, exuding a fragrant breeze, and began to knead Lin Fan's shoulders.

"Oh? What is it?"

"It's just..."

"If I or other fellow disciples encounter a bio-master's invisible and intangible methods, how should we guard against and counter them?"

"This?"

Lin Fan smiled, "The current stage is actually quite simple."

"As long as your attacks truly achieve full coverage without blind spots, you'll naturally have nothing to fear from those controlled microorganisms."

"But only at this stage?"

"Master, do you mean that in the future, he might be able to cultivate microorganisms that ignore attacks...?"

"It's not impossible."

Lin Fan shrugged, "Moreover, if he's smart enough, he won't casually reveal that he's a bio-master when fighting others."

"If I were him, facing a strong enemy, I'd choose to engage in close combat first."

"Close combat?!"

Ya Ya's mind was filled with question marks.

She couldn't understand why the strength of a bio-master didn't lie in killing silently and invisibly? Clearly, they could kill from a distance 'silently,' but instead, they would choose close combat?

It was dangerous and not a good idea!

"Could it be to confuse the enemy?"

"Confuse them? It's one of the reasons, but it's also the most insignificant one." Lin Fan narrowed his eyes, "The real principle is... you may be able to attack in all directions without blind spots."

"But you will never attack yourself without blind spots!"

"If I were a bio-master, and I have a certain level of 'proficiency,' then as soon as I come into contact with you, the microorganisms in your body will be under my control..."

"Using the microorganisms in your body to deal with you is far more 'silent' and unpredictable than using the microorganisms I cultivate."

Ya Ya's face gradually paled, and she felt uncomfortable all over.

This was too scary! But she still had questions, "But... shouldn't bio-masters be weak in close combat?"

"If they engage in close combat, won't they expose their weaknesses?"

"Who says they have to personally engage in close combat?"

"Guess why I call them bio-masters instead of 'microorganism masters'?"

"!!!"

Ya Ya finally understood.

"Spirit beasts?!"

"!!!"

Indeed.

Whether it's bio-masters or beast tamers, most of them aren't skilled in close combat.

But spirit beasts are!

The essence of spirit beasts is that they are tamed demonic beasts. When it comes to demonic beasts, how many aren't skilled in close combat?

They are even more adept at close combat than humans!

"Then... isn't this bio-master unbeatable? It's too strong and unreasonable!" Ya Ya pouted, then hugged Lin Fan's neck from behind and pleaded, "Master~~~"

"Bio-masters are too cunning."

"You have to teach me how to counter them."

"Otherwise, I won't let you off."

"You rebellious disciple!"

Lin Fan scolded with a smile, "Are you trying to strangle your master to death?!"

...

Although bio-masters are strong, they are not invincible.

However, without sufficient intelligence, it's indeed easy for them to die without understanding the cause.

Moreover, cultivators possess powerful divine souls.

Are there microorganisms that can devour and target divine souls? Lin Fan didn't know.

If not...

Then microorganisms wouldn't be that terrifying.

"However."

"Hehe."

Lin Fan smiled.

It's the same as before—why aren't bio-masters called microorganism masters? They can control not only microorganisms but also spirit beasts!!!

...

After He Anxia left, he didn't immediately return to his cave abode. Instead, he went to the Scripture Pavilion and wrote down all his cultivation insights regarding beast taming and bio-masters, as well as the beast taming techniques that were not passed down in the Beast Control Sect. He stored all this information in the Scripture Pavilion.

He didn't want to keep it to himself.

He wished to have more like-minded individuals, so they could discuss cultivation and grow together in the future.

At the same time, this action would also earn him 'points' that could be exchanged for various resources within the sect. After all, as disciples, if they could enrich the Scripture Pavilion, the sect would surely reward them. And once they received their own 'monthly allowance'...

He Anxia was stunned.

"Isn't this reward a bit too generous?"

He even felt that if he had known the monthly allowance for direct disciples in the Moonlit Sect was so astonishing, even without the existence of bio-masters, he would still be impressed and aspire to join the Moonlit Sect.

"But with such generous conditions, I must work harder."

"I must not waste this opportunity!"

...

After comforting Ya Ya, Lin Fan had just entered a meditative state.

Before he could figure out anything, the five elders, Huo Kunlun, Lian Sheng, and others arrived together.

Lin Fan: "..."

"Elders, is there something important you wish to discuss?"

Sect matters were serious business.

Moreover, their collective arrival meant Lin Fan couldn't afford to neglect them.

"I'm here to report on the situation."

Duan Yaoyao smiled and reported, "The crisis in the Beast Control Sect has been resolved."

"This incident has exposed the shortcomings within the Beast Control Sect, but at the same time, it has also made them more aware of their weaknesses and allowed them to address them specifically."

"And perfectly resolving the crisis has, in turn, brought great fame to the Beast Control Sect."

"The progress of the formation arrangement has, on the contrary, increased by more than thirty percent, which is indeed a cause for celebration."

"This is indeed an unexpected joy." Lin Fan nodded slightly, "What about the others?"

"It is like this."

Su Xinghai stepped forward and said, "Sect Leader, after discussing among us elders, we all believe that our Moon Embrace Sect should hold some internal activities to further motivate the disciples and increase their enthusiasm for growth."

"Oh?!"

Lin Fan blinked, "Tell me more."

"It's actually an internal sect competition." Huo Kunlun smiled, "Many sects hold such competitions annually, while some do so every three to five years, or even once a decade, allowing their disciples to battle and determine the rankings."

"And the sequence of disciples is determined from this."

"At the same time, this kind of competition is beneficial for the disciples' growth, and the higher the ranking, the more rewards they receive, accelerating their progress."

"For the disciples, this is a hundred times beneficial and without any harm."

"For the sect, the growth of the disciples benefits the sect as well, and at the same time, it can further spread its reputation..."

"Every sect has this?"

Lin Fan blinked again, "Why didn't our Moon Embrace Sect have this before?"

He looked at the five elders.

Before becoming the sect leader, he had been in the Moon Embrace Sect for over a decade.

In his memory, there had never been any such internal sect competitions.

Su Xinghai, Wu Xingyun, and the other three elders suddenly felt embarrassed, "Cough, well..."

"That's because our Moon Embrace Sect had a special situation before, so we didn't have that..."

How could he say this!

Should he say that the Moon Embrace Sect had been in such a miserable state that they had no time, energy, or resources to organize an internal competition? Especially over a decade ago...

The entire sect only had eight disciples, and their talents were so obvious that there was no point in comparing them!

Would they still need to rank them?

If so, then...

Wouldn't everyone be in the sequence?

Wouldn't that be ridiculous?

Seeing their embarrassment, Lin Fan suddenly understood and didn't press the issue.

"So that's the case!"

Lin Fan nodded.

Only then did Wu Xingyun speak up, "But in recent years, our Moon Embrace Sect has been thriving, especially after you became the sect leader. The Moon Embrace Sect is now flourishing like the sun at noon."

"With the current number of disciples and the strength of our Moon Embrace Sect, it is indeed time to hold an internal competition."

"Moreover, it has been over ten years since you took over as the sect leader."

"That's true."

Lin Fan had no reason to refuse an activity like the internal sect competition that would benefit the sect.

"However, I have no idea how to organize it."

"We know!" Huo Kunlun's smile was radiant, "Just leave this matter to us, and we will handle it perfectly. We won't leave any room for criticism, whether it's about face, substance, or practical significance."

"That's the best."

Lin Fan laughed, "Elders, please discuss and make the arrangements."

"As for the timing, let's set it for half a month from now."

"Regarding the rewards... the first-place winner can choose an Imperial Scripture and an Invincible Technique from the Sutra Pavilion."

"The second-place winner can choose an Imperial Scripture."

"The third-place winner can choose an Invincible Technique."

"As for the other rewards and subsequent rankings, you can decide on those."

As soon as Lin Fan said this, everyone was shocked.

Even Elder Lian murmured, "Wow, with Imperial Scriptures and Invincible Techniques as rewards, those young disciples might just go crazy. Even I, as an elder, am tempted to join the competition."

"You're shameless too!" Luo Yushu teased, "If anyone should go, it's me. I still look young, so I might be able to pass as a disciple."

"Hahaha."

Everyone laughed.

Then, they discussed some of the finer details.

The elders spoke, and Lin Fan listened.

Occasionally, he offered his opinions.

The atmosphere was relatively harmonious.

However, towards the end, Lin Fan suddenly realized something was amiss.

The internal sect competition...

Wouldn't his personal disciples have to 'participate' as well?

What's the point of others participating then?

With these powerful disciples in the competition, wouldn't they directly dominate the top ten spots?

The other disciples wouldn't stand a chance!

This won't do!

Lin Fan immediately spoke up, "There's something else. Xiao Ling'er, Yaoyao, and the others won't be participating."

"Huh?"

"Why is that?"

The elders were taken aback, "Is that appropriate?"

"They are also disciples of our sect. Not letting them participate is unreasonable and unfair!"

"Are you worried that people will say you're seeking 'private gains' for your disciples? Rest assured, Elder Li here guarantees that no one will dare to say such things..."

"That's not what I mean."

Lin Fan shook his head.

He didn't care about his reputation, and who would dare to complain within the Moon Embrace Sect anyway?

However, he had to consider the 'gaming experience' of the other disciples.

In a game like this, throwing a bunch of powerful players into the mix would ruin the fun for the others!

Moreover, he wanted to select some talented disciples from this group and cultivate them. If these powerful players went on a killing spree, how would he know who was worth cultivating?

"I have other plans for them. My disciples won't be participating in this decade's competition."

Lin Fan made the decision.

If Xiao Ling'er, Yaoyao, and the others felt the itch to compete, they could hold their own private competition.

The rewards wouldn't be any less for them.

But bullying the weaker players, especially when they are from the same sect... there's no need for that.

It might crush their cultivation spirit, and he would have to find a way to console them.

Why bother?
