One step closer to reality every day

Chapter 244 If Instinct...

Under the surface of the sea, a figure was swimming forward like an arrow from the string.

This is the first time that Feng Yi has really been away from the area where human beings live, swimming in the sea.

The last starfish incident was actually not too far from the land.After all, the area where starfish gathered was not deep sea at that time.

Only when you are really far away from the land can you feel the vastness of the ocean.

No matter how big a boat is, it is just a leaf in the sea.

Feel the changes in ocean currents and the exchange of information in the sea.

Ocean currents act as highways under the sea, bringing food and life, and attracting more predators.

Feng Yi also saw some cute sea creatures, but he was not in the mood to say hello.

Following the guidance of his instinct, he continued to search for the goal of his trip.

In his perception, there is a special magnetic field center deep in the ocean, and instinct judges the route based on this special magnetic field.

Apart from the necessary ventilation along the way, Feng Yi never exposed himself to the surface of the sea, trying to minimize the risk of exposure while on the road.

I don't know how long I have been swimming, and I have crossed several time zones, and the light on the sea surface is getting darker and darker.

However, light has no effect on him. In sea water, he relies on perception and instinctive recognition of magnetic fields.

Finally...it's here!

Approaching the destination, Feng Yi discerned the special magnetic field.

That's right, it's here!

Judging by instinct, my aunt came to this place before she died!
It's just that there doesn't seem to be anything special here.

No signs of human activity were detected in this area, nor were ships sailing.Feng Yi was about to float out of the sea to take a look.

However, will it be unlucky to be recognized by satellites?

How to do things under the nose of the satellite?
Still block it.

Sensing the energy substances floating in the sky, Feng Yi controlled them to become active.

He does not directly control the clouds in the sky, but by mobilizing the energy substances distributed in the high altitude, and using their power to promote the changes of airflow and clouds.

That is to say, without the existence of those energy substances, he cannot change the clouds in the sky.

As long as those energy substances exist, as long as he can perceive and control them, even thousands of miles away, he can move the air currents and clouds there.

But there is no such ability yet.

Between the sky and the sea surface, an energy field will soon be formed.

Large amounts of seawater evaporated from the ocean, forming clouds in the sky.The clouds in the distance are also gathering here.

The small animals living in the sea seemed to have sensed something and moved away one after another.

Not long after, a large cloud cover appeared above the sea.

Feng Yi surfaced and felt it carefully.

If instinct is right, there should be something here.

What exactly is it?

The vast sea, looking around, did not see the target at all.

Could it be in the water?
Just thinking of this, Feng Yi's eyebrows twitched, he dived into the water, and looked towards the bottom of the sea.

There are changes under the sea!
Ultra-low frequency sound signals came from the deep sea.

Directly below, something is floating up from the bottom of the sea.

Feng Yi did not leave, but waited quietly.The instinctive message told him, this is it!
The huge black shadow got closer and closer, until it lifted Feng Yi out of the water and floated out of the sea.

Feng Yi looked at this giant that emerged from the bottom of the sea.

It's not a magical creature, but an island made of rocks.

It's here!

It is the center of the magnetic field, the final destination of his trip!

Instinct did not go wrong!

Feng Yi patted the rock under him with his tail.

The hardness of the rock is very good, even more suitable than the stone path specially used for skin grinding in his house!
It was indeed a stone, not any other metal, but I couldn't tell what kind of rock it was.

Since it is a rock, why can it suddenly float from the bottom of the sea to the surface of the water?
What is the principle?
Feng Yi thought for a while, and no longer struggled.Now is not the time to analyze this.

After staying on the bottom of the sea for a long time, the surface of the entire rocky island has a layer of dark attachments, and the original color of the rocks can no longer be seen in most areas.

And as the small rocky island emerged from the sea, Feng Yi seemed to have turned on some switch suddenly, the energy in his body was ready to move, and every cell became active.

But Feng Yi is not worried.

I know this!

It was this kind of feeling, similar to when he molted his skin on the day of the Waking of Insects, but this time there was no warning, and it appeared suddenly after the small stone island floated up.

Similar, but not.

It doesn't matter if you don't understand, leave it to instinct!
Rumbling--

Torrential rain clouds piled up in the sky, covering dozens of kilometers in a short time, and began to release energy.

There was a dull rolling thunder, as if some giant was trampling back and forth in the storm clouds.

Lightning crazily tore through the sky, like a group of snakes attacking all around.

The wind is howling and the waves are rolling!
The wind became violent.

A large amount of fog appeared on the sea surface, and visibility decreased rapidly.

A gust of wind cut the sea surface, setting off fine water droplets.

Every molt is accompanied by the synthesis and release of energy, which will cause some meteorological phenomena.

But this time, although it is not moulting, it is also a key point of growth, which also triggers drastic weather changes.

On the rocky island.

Feng Yi also changed.

When Jing Zhe shed her skin, except for her hands, there were only lines on her torso and arms, but now, thin but hard scales grew out layer by layer, from the torso to the arms, down to each finger.

The specialized bone claws, like steel knives out of their sheaths, glow coldly.

Driven by abundant energy, it was like finally having a full meal, warm and satiated.

At the same time, a memory silent in the DNA is gradually activated.

handed down from the ancestors.

From this memory, Feng Yi knew a lot of important information.

For example, how to control the breath more precisely, how to release the correct semiochemicals, how to mobilize more active factors and so on.

I also know the role of this rocky island.

This rocky island is more like an alternative lair, it can provide a special magnetic field to guide the direction, and can assist in gathering those energy substances to promote growth and evolution.

It usually sinks on the bottom of the sea, but when it feels energy changes, it will "activate" and float up from the bottom of the sea.

The energy substances floating around the world will gather here as if feeling the magnetic attraction.

In their race, the powerful body is a huge energy body.

Death is a process of releasing energy.

At the same time, those energy substances are also released, and they will change from the bound state to the free state, floating in the air.

When the old individual passed away, he came to this small rocky island. With the death of the body, the energy supporting the body was released. Those energy substances were centered on this, diffused towards the surroundings, floated on the clouds, and quietly waited for the next successor. arrival.

When young successors come here, they will absorb these energy substances as "nutrients" for growth.

This is a material cycle.

In addition, Feng Yi also knows why there can only be one race like them now, and two or more cannot exist at the same time. Even if there are, they will die soon.

Because of insufficient energy!

Those energy substances can promote further mutation and growth of the body.

Every time Feng Yi grows to a stage, he has to shed his skin, just like those cultivators in legendary fantasy stories go through a catastrophe, every time they reach a stage, they have to go through a catastrophe.

His kind is also equivalent to another kind of crossing the catastrophe.

Successful molt can grow stronger and live longer.

If the molt fails, or if something goes wrong, the body will be greatly damaged.

It's not obvious yet, the more energy and matter will be needed to overcome this "tribulation" as the time goes by.

And a long time ago, there was plenty of energy matter in the air.

Ancestors can live for a long time, and there can be many such individuals at the same time.

At that time, the energy and matter on the planet could feed so many people, allowing them to successfully survive one calamity after another and live longer.

200 years? 500 years?Maybe longer.

The ancestors moved around the world, leaving behind various myths and legends or horror stories.

However, tens of millions of years have passed, and the energy matter has been reduced to the point that only one can be supported at the same time.

And individual growth will also be restricted, the further you go, the more energy and matter you need.When the energy and matter needed for evolution cannot be supported, and cannot survive the next kalpa and enter the next growth stage, it will face the situation of "the end is approaching".

My aunt and her elders are like this.

Obviously they may only be in the young and middle age of this race, but due to lack of energy, they cannot survive the next "catastrophe", and can only face the limit.

The ancestors noticed the reduction of energy and matter, and they searched for a way to break the situation from generation to generation, and they did find something——

The increase and decrease of this energy substance is related to the planet itself.

The growth of their race does consume some energy substances, but most of them will be released when they die. Compared with the overall situation, it will not lead to such a result.

Only the planet itself can cause this change.

The ancestors saw the planet as another dimension of life.

Every time a planet undergoes a major change, it will be accompanied by a sharp increase or decrease of those energy substances.

Changes to the planet affect all life on it.

Thinking about it this way, Feng Yi suspects that the anomalous climate period more than 20 years ago may have caused the disappearance of a large part of those energy substances, which is why my aunt and her elderly face the deadline so early.

Mr. Feng, who was born in the same birth as her, is still alive and well!

This also means that Feng Yi himself may not live as long as his aunt!
And since him, the other successors have also lived shorter generations.

Feng Yi is in a complicated mood now.

It's like, after eating a full meal, you know that you will face famine in the future.

Feng Yi lay on the rocky island and meditated.

The residual anxiety left in the DNA of the ancestors affected Feng Yi.

He picked the stone with his claws a little anxiously.

The dark attachments on the rocks kept falling down.

In fact, if an ordinary person can maintain the physique of a young and middle-aged man and live until he is 80 or [-] years old, then there will be no regrets.

However, the information conveyed by his ancestral DNA is like the teachings of his ancestors:

[Baby, work hard!Maybe you can live for 500 years? ! ! 】

However, so many powerful seniors can't do anything, what can I do?
"Based on my brain, it is very likely that I will not be able to find a solution if I live to the limit."

Feng Yi knew very well that he was not that kind of smart person.

No brain, what about... instinct?

Feng Yi thought about it.

It continued to clasp the stone silently, and flicked its long tail back and forth agitatedly.

After a while, the rocky island became "bald".

Looking at the bald rock face, Feng Yi let out a long sigh.

After thinking to no avail, he watched the thunderstorm cloud in the sky weaken.

"never mind."

He still has decades to go, if nothing negative happens.

Looking at the sky covered by clouds, Feng Yi jumped into the sea.

Hungry, go back to eat.

Find a solution when you are full.

It is impossible to lie flat. Maybe when doing the mission of the UNPA, we should collect more information?
Don't worry about the small rocky island floating on the sea, it will sink by itself.

This rocky island changes position with ocean currents or seabed activity

It is always moving.

Of course, if there is no violent activity on the bottom of the sea, it usually does not move so fast.

It has been less than two years since my aunt passed away, and its position has not shifted much.

After Feng Yi swam for a long distance, he heard that low-frequency sound again.

This is a sign of sinking.

Feng Yi remembered that he had read an essay a long time ago, saying that there was a rumor that there was a small ghost island in the distant sea, which would appear mysteriously and then disappear mysteriously, and no one could grasp its trace.

that's it?
　See you tonight.
