Atabia Kingdom.

  The entire world, engulfed by the great flood, entered the terrifying Dead Sea Era.

  Survivors resided in shelter arks, scarcely daring to venture outside.

  Meanwhile, the King of Atabia in the shelter marveled at the wonders of multicellur life. He continually attempted to compile life's genetic code, improving the shelter ark.

  Leading billions of engineers, their popution far exceeding Earth's, they researched this biological genetic sequence. How terrifyingly rapid would their progress be? Originally, it was merely a crude boat with a few oars (fgel and fish fins).

  Now, through rapid iterations, aided by Ning Guochang's massive emergency food supplies stored in the iron racks, life was evolving at breakneck speed.

  These arks gained optical perception from mites, 24 taste receptors, and 65 ion receptor genes, enabling them to perceive the external world.

  To assist operation, various unconscious nerve cells and muscle cells were established internally, these intricate structures aiding control of the entire ark.

  Within the ark's hull:

  "Absolutely marvelous!" excimed a single-celled bacterium, its fgel swaying in amazement.

  "Originally, controlling an ark required tens of millions of engineers. Now, only a few hundred engineers are needed to pilot them!"

  "No, our civilization is exploding! Soon, a single engineer sitting in the cockpit will be able to control an entire ark!"

  The single-celled organisms shouted.

  These primordial creations, the gods themselves, still remained unaware of the terrifying implications of their actions.

  When a bacterium—a single-celled organism—donned this massive exoskeleton mecha and controlled the entire fish from the cockpit, didn't it essentially become a neuron in the fish's brain? Didn't it become the fish's brain itself?

  Yet civilization continued its explosive growth.

  Engineers soon achieved single-person control of the arks.

  Thus, under the individual creativity of each engineer, every constructed fish took on unique forms: shark-shaped, giant-shaped, kelp-shaped, crab-shaped, snail-shaped, octopus-shaped—every manner of bizarre form imaginable.

  In the ocean, nearly simultaneously, billions of primitive fish coexisted, resembling the Cambrian explosion of marine life where diverse animal phy thrived together.

  Time continued its frenzied march!

  "When civilization ceases to evolve, it is doomed to perish!"

  "Those evil Outer Gods observe us from beyond the heavens! They wait for us to falter!"

  In the royal pace, upon the throne, the King of Atabia's voice rang with fervor.

  The Single-celled Bacterial Emperor, who would usher in the next civilization, sounded the war horn: "We cannot forever build arks and survive in the ocean. We must rebuild the nd!"

  Thus began the endeavor.

  To resist the Chaos Evil God from beyond the heavens, the world's engineers used countless fish swimming in the sea to forge tectonic ptes and raise the nd, creating an unprecedented continent—the Mu Continent.

  This was a miracle among miracles.

  A great civilization had constructed a new wonder.

  And these fish would have some of their kind return to the nd once more.

  The Atabia Kingdom, having overcome the Evil God's great flood disaster, became increasingly resistant to the massive Chaos Evil God from beyond the heavens.

  They were clever, meticulous, and ambitious, never stopping their progress!

  And the greatest Emperor Atabia, wise and valiant, devoted himself even more to advancing civilization, saying:

  "Build the nd, but the seawater remains stagnant. You ark engineers must remember this divine script and inscribe it into the ark. It can decompose seawater and allow the ark to feed from the sea."

  Survival of the fittest, the w of nature.

  In the alcohol environment, fish that could finally decompose alcohol emerged. Thus their ships no longer worried about energy problems.

  Countless fish swam through the alcohol sea, breaking down the alcohol to obtain heat energy and expelling water. They were like the greatest cleaners purifying the toxic environment, allowing nature to return to its most beautiful era.

  These alcohol-drinking fish, if taken out of their natural habitat and raised in jars, could likely become exotic pets or even invasive species, perhaps becoming "beer fish" in Huaxia.

  Gurgle...

  The concentration of the alcohol sea began to dilute, gradually returning to true seawater.

  The entire kingdom boiled with excitement.

  "Thank goodness! Our king has broken the Evil God's curse! We can return to our previous environment!"

  They wept with joy. In this era of apocalyptic outbreaks, it had been too painful - forced to live in shelters while endless death mists filled the outside world.

  The toxic air made them dare not stay outside for too long.

  In this era of apocalyptic disasters, they deeply missed the beautiful era before the Evil God unleashed the great flood - when the heavens were clear, the air fresh, and the waters green.

  "King!"

  "King!"

  Someone shouted, "The king's radiance will cover the earth!"

  Another cried out repeatedly, "We are constantly growing! Our genes are evolving and advancing. One day, every Atabian will become a new Giant God!"

  On nd, Emperor Atabia, a man of great talent and ambition, continued his research into the evolution of multicellur organisms.

  After entering the new era of civilization's explosion, his goals extended far beyond fish.

  This emperor began constructing a massive ark on the Mu Continent, resembling a great serpent coiled upon the nd. It served as both a central shelter and the kingdom's central research institute.

  Countless brilliant engineers would gather within the serpent's belly, colliding their wisdom to ignite the sparks of life.

  Soon, with the assistance of billions of engineers, Emperor Atabia finally completed his civilization's foundational work, The Four Characters of Creation, first edition. The opening words of this book established the three eternal truths:

  Truth One: All life in the world is built upon four fundamental characters.

  Truth Two: Life is a book, its genetic chains written as rows of text using four divine characters. These characters encode a life's structure, shape, characteristics, abilities, color, and size.

  Truth Three: By deciphering these characters' arrangements, we unlock the mysteries of creation. The Atabians will open the life-gate in the realm of truth, entering the glorious era of omnipotence.

  These single-celled organisms had evolved into fish, naturally developing their own scientific achievements.

  This book comprehensively summarized the microscopic life kingdom's current understanding and knowledge of genes.

  At that moment, within the pace of the kingdom...

  The King of Atabia sat quietly upon his throne.

  He was no longer a simple single-celled humanoid, but had transformed into a multicellur being.

  His original single-celled body had become a thinking head, beneath which eighteen cellur jointed limbs were attached.

  Remarkably, this single-celled head now bore faint traces of a human's handsome facial features, while the entire lower body had taken on a wax-like form, exuding an extraordinarily fluid and aesthetic human appearance.

  Upon the throne, this beautiful getinous humanoid wax figure murmured, "This is my new form."

  "Congratutions to Your Majesty! We rejoice in Your Majesty's glory!"

  "Your Majesty, the Atabians have finally attained the shape of God!"

  The countless ministers below excimed fervently.

  Though they procimed their intent to conquer the Creator God, deep within their hearts burned a racial inferiority complex that secretly yearned for and revered the human form of the Creator God.

  Otherwise, they wouldn't have attempted to discern the Creator God's appearance before. They had their billions of subjects crawl over the divine form, measuring its shape, then transforming themselves into a human-like figure.

  At that time, these single-celled organisms, though possessing intelligence, cked the technical means. They could only create a self-deceiving imitation - a simple human form consisting of a single cell with four fgel.

  Of course, they discovered this two-handed human form to be the most suitable for tool-making among all creatures. It proved ideal for their engineers, truly deserving of being the most majestic and mysterious divine-shaped being.

  But now...

  After the great flood, their great sovereign had become even closer to this form!

  He even developed a face and physique, with muscles defined in sharp contours.

  The King of Atabia looked at his subjects and said calmly:

  "There's no need for envy. The life blueprint for this form will be distributed to you. You can evolve according to the blueprint."

  "I procim! The Atabians will undergo a second physical evolution. We will completely transform from single-celled organisms into multicellur life, possessing the divine form."

  At that moment, the entire pace erupted in frenzy.

  "Why worship gods when we Atabians can become gods ourselves?" Countless citizens shouted, plunging into the ocean to transform into fish and swim through the sea.

  Emperor Atabia watched with a mix of awe and mencholy.

  They had evolved from single-celled spores to become fish, marking a monumental leap in biological evolution.

  Yet unlike the nation's ecstatic fervor, he felt no joy despite this grand achievement. The more ignorant they were, the more arrogant they became. The more knowledge he gained, the greater his fear grew.

  In secret, he had been studying the preserved blood of the Creator God, deciphering four of the Divine Scripts within their bodies. By analyzing the Giant God's structural blueprints, he discovered the true majesty and vastness of divine power.

  The genetic structure was so complex it nearly defied comprehension.

  It was beautiful.

  Absolutely beautiful.

  Even the genetic code of the mite behemoth—a monster they had struggled to conquer—seemed primitive compared to the Giant God's blueprints!

  The structure of the Creator God was a miracle among miracles.

  Trillions of exquisitely arranged Divine Scripts formed a massive, complex living structure. The internal structure of a single cell was far more advanced than their own single-celled civilization, separated by countless levels of biological evolution.

  Unlike their exposed genetic chains, the Creator God's genes were protected by an outer nucleus. Each cell contained intricate substructures completely foreign to them—mitochondria, centrioles, ribosomes...

  Every observation left him awestruck, utterly bewildered!

  Is this what God looks like? Is this what advanced life structures look like? Is this the Giant God Shell Blueprint God wrote for itself? Compared to our own Ark Shell Blueprint, it's simply...

  From his throne, he suddenly sighed, watching the engineers proudly dispying their creations and competing over whose was superior. It all seemed so ughable, utterly absurd.

  Our life cell creation technology is utterly insignificant in their eyes...

  And yet, we are so proud.

  However, he didn't know that humans weren't built by themselves.

  Unlike their artificial evolution through "heart-in-pce-of-heaven" editing, human genetic blueprints are the natural crystallization nurtured by Earth's three billion years of evolution.

  The miraculous life form forged by the power of time itself. How could their engineering editing technology, developed in mere days, possibly compare?

  At this moment, Emperor Atabia, guided by his civilization's development logic, believed the Outer Gods were just like them—originally intelligent single-celled organisms who had engineered their own evolution, ultimately transforming themselves into Giant Gods.

  "The civilization level of the gods, capable of creating such magnificent structures... Their technology far surpasses ours by countless grades. Truly awe-inspiring."

  Seated on his throne, this majestic wax statue of a human ruler gazed beyond the World Crystal Wall. He reached through his forehead, stirring a strand of DNA within his brain.

  "The rger the body, the harder it is to control. Even we single-celled organisms struggle to manage a single ark alone. Yet that Outer God civilization, as mere single-celled beings, effortlessly controls the massive divine shell. They're at least seven grades above us!"

  He even felt that human beings, like these creatures, were controlled by a single cell.

  "If possible, I want to have a genuine exchange with this Evil God!"

  He suddenly felt a surge of longing - an intense desire for knowledge. He yearned to communicate with an extraterrestrial advanced civilization beyond this world, to converse with the Giants, and to touch the exquisite structure of their creations.

  "When he comes again to destroy the world, I... want to see him."

  He suddenly stood up on the throne, murmuring to himself: "See the Evil God beyond the Chaotic Crystal Wall! Their form of life is truly enviable..."

  As if in response to his wish, beyond the distant crystal wall, there came a sudden cracking sound. A figure slowly appeared outside the crystal wall.

  Crack! Massive and icy pupils, beyond the World Crystal Wall, looked down. Their gaze emitted a suffocating warmth.

  A wave of consciousness came:

  "Eh, impressive. These single-celled lives have actually evolved into a Fish Kingdom."
