Chapter 222

However, this also attracted the attention of the remaining Gold-Eaters on the battlefield. They all turned their heads and flew toward Adam.

The reincarnation spell was even faster. Before the mouths of the Gold-Eaters could touch the fire seed, it brought Adam's soul into the fire seed and drilled into the ground.

Not only did the earth, which was completely made of metal minerals, not stop the fire seed from falling, but it also actively made way for it. In just a few breaths of time, the fire seed had fallen to a depth of 6,555 kilometers. Then, the fire opened up a space of two cubic meters.

The Origin Fire was the 'mother' of the metal races. They had no gender, did not secrete sex hormones, and did not have a uterus or ovary to pass down genetic information. The birth of new life and the continuation of the population were completed by the fire seed.

It was unknown whether the fire seed had a clear self-consciousness, but it seemed to know that the reincarnation spell had allowed it to escape the fate of dissipation, so it was very obedient.

Adam still did not understand the true principle of reincarnation, but he could feel that he was not rejected this time. In other words, he did not need to go through so many changes to the mother body. He could succeed in one try.

He still remembered the last time he reincarnated a dragon. The power of magic constantly destroyed the mother body to absorb nutrients and energy, and at the same time, destroyed the new life that was being formed to steal information. The process was like a robber committing a crime. However, it was completely different this time. The Origin Fire was very cooperative where the magic reached. It took the initiative to reveal all its secrets, completely opening itself up and allowing the reincarnation spell to translate its information.

The information of the Origin Fire was very complicated and strange. The reincarnation spell was not easy to translate. Even if the fire seed was fully cooperative, it would take a very long time.

The long translation time was constantly consuming energy, and the result was that the fire seed was shrinking day by day. After a year, there was only one cubic meter of space left in the underground space. It was also at this time that Adam felt that his external life form had finally made a breakthrough. A weak flame burned outside the soul sealed by the reincarnation spell, forming a fire in the Origin Fire.

For the first time, the Origin Fire expressed its emotions clearly. It was very happy and excited.

The Fire Seed did not think that it was being violated at all. Instead, it began to channel pure energy into Adam's flames, providing nourishment for the newly born flames without holding back.

Thus, the compilation speed was greatly increased. The Reincarnation technique no longer continued to plunder, but existed as a bridge of energy and information transmission between the inner and outer flames. This directly led to Adam not facing the problem of not having inherited knowledge and basic language like in the Dragon Plane. The Origin Flame was like a real mother, doing its best to nurture Adam.

However, Adam also had his doubts.

The Origin Flame's special method of breeding life should be closely related to the Origin. In other words, it was impossible for it not to have noticed the problem with its origin. However, it still did so, so this matter was very abnormal.

Adam had a strange thought in his mind. Could this be an open plane? Or was it that the origin was so confident in its own strength that it didn't care about the arrival of beings from other planes and even wanted to counterattack?

However, before he truly integrated into this world and understood the background and information of this world, all his thoughts were superficial guesses.

Anyway, he did not have to worry too much even if there was danger. After condensing the electronic true body and using it as the foundation to create new clones, his survival ability had been greatly improved. Even if his original body fell here, it would not be able to completely take away his life. Any clone in the laboratory could immediately download soul waves from the Weave and carry his soul. Moreover, the knowledge up to Level 8 was complete. As long as there was enough energy, he could quickly return to his peak. The real loss was only the resources he carried with him, a part of his soul power, and the Devil …

With his life guaranteed, he could temporarily not care about the strangeness of this world. He settled his mind and focused on changing his life form.

The Origin Flame continued to transmit everything to Adam. Its flames were getting weaker and weaker, and the space it supported was getting smaller and smaller. On the other hand, Adam's own flames were getting more and more vigorous.

At this time, Adam knew the function of the Origin Flame.

It was the origin and soul of those huge metal lifeforms. The first flame came from the origin. It descended into the material world and fused into the metal ores. The strange power made the metal extremely active. The accumulation and burning of energy gave the metal life and the ability to evolve on its own.

In the process of the metal lifeform's evolution, the flame became stronger and stronger. High-level lifeforms could choose to release a part of the flame to create new members of their race. Ordinary lifeforms would use everything they had to help it burn and return to heaven and earth after death, hoping for new life to be born.

This was the most valuable resource, even more valuable than the radioactive minerals in Katos.

Adam felt that all the alchemists in the Mage World would go crazy because of this. Since it could give life to metal, it meant that it could give life to many alchemy puppets and even the Mage Tower in the Mage World. In that case, it could even create a new powerful companion race in the Mage World that was completely connected to the Mage World. It was more perfect than any soul slaves.

Knowing the existence of the Origin Flame, it did not matter if there was nothing else valuable in this world. Adam's exploration mission this time was worth the price.

— — —

Three months later, the flame outside Adam's soul grew to the same size as the Origin Flame. At this moment, Adam felt a strong expectation and gentleness. He seemed to hear a faintly discernible voice reaching directly into his soul. "Pass on the flame. Me and you, the same mission."

The Origin Flame did not hesitate to collapse itself, turning into pure energy and fusing with Adam's flame and soul. The seal of the reincarnation spell was half undone. A part of Adam's soul carefully probed into the flame, and then burned fiercely with the flame.

It did not attract the pursuit of the origin.

The ground began to surge, and piles of ores were thrown into the flame. This was the first step of the metal lifeform's birth. It condensed its own Origin Flame, attracted and smelted the endless metal ores around it to create a power furnace.

This was simply too easy for Adam. After mastering the electron, his control over metal was almost absolute. The ordinary impurities in the ores were completely removed the moment they came into contact with the Origin Flame. Then, some ordinary metal ores that Adam knew, such as gold, silver, copper, iron, chromium, aluminum, tungsten, and so on, were directly converted into pure metal atoms.

The initial composition of the body was not very important. Metal lifeforms were in the process of evolution. As long as the power furnace existed and the Origin Flame was not extinguished, they could change their body composition at any time.
