Chapter 24 of "Post-Mythical Era: I don't want to die in the third reincarnation" begins revealing surprises: The school's lack of oversight in the lab was truly convenient for Ding Huan. Instead of... Read on to find out!

The school's lack of oversight in the lab was truly convenient for Ding Huan. Instead of extracting the Fire Lizard's healing gene, Ding Huan chose to first extract the White-faced Coarse-tailed Ape's Antidote Gene and then refine a Genetic Potion that could fuse with it. He would also extract and refine the Fire Lizard's healing gene, but he didn't plan to use it right away. When he found the time, he intended to see if he could find that one-meter-long Two-Horned Fire Lizard. Extracting and refining biological Genetic Potions that could assimilate with the human body was not new to Ding Huan; his recent attempts had all been extremely smooth. With each successful extraction of an Alien Gene Potion that could fuse with the human body, Ding Huan felt as though he gained a deeper understanding of creating Genetic Potions. So, when it came to extracting the White-faced Coarse-tailed Ape's Antidote Gene, Ding Huan wasn't worried about failing. However, things tend to go awry when they seem easiest. After two days in the lab, Ding Huan had filled up a notebook with data but still couldn't extract the White-faced Coarse-tailed Ape's Antidote Gene. Had he not brought back half of the ape's tail for materials, he might have run out of samples to continue experimenting with. On the third day, Ding Huan realized he couldn't keep going on like this; there would be no progress. He left the gene laboratory, took a shower, ate something, and rested for a night before starting to rethink his strategies. Once he calmed down and thought carefully, vague genetic knowledge gradually surfaced in his mind. Things that were initially unclear became clearer after he took the time to organize them. The Spirit Root Gene was first, which in the era before genes were discussed, must have been a type of gene. But as Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi became scarce, humans on Earth gradually devolved some things. The Spirit Root Gene was thus lost, and without the Spirit Root, what use were the best Cultivation Techniques or the densest Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi? He could create the Spirit Root Gene Potion not just because he had Reincarnation Blood but more importantly because he intended to use the Spirit Root Gene for himself. In other words, if he made a Spirit Root Gene Potion for Qu Yi, would it truly be able to merge? Then there was the Quality Gene, which like the Antidote Gene he was currently making, was a kind of Quality Gene. Was it possible not to simply borrow the genetic ability of Alien Genes, like the White-faced Coarse-tailed Ape's poison resistance? Instead, convert this genetic ability into one's own inherent Quality Gene? That was different. One way was simply to fuse and then possess the ability. The other was to incorporate it into one's own instinctual body without needing to merge Alien Genes, then possess this instinct. They might seem identical on the surface, but Ding Huan vaguely felt there was a considerable difference that could even determine his future potential. Unfortunately, he couldn't understand the difference just yet. If he couldn't figure it out, he would focus on how to create the Antidote Gene Potion first. With the help of his vague knowledge of genetics, Ding Huan's method of refining a Genetic Potion that could assimilate with the human body became increasingly clear. To extract any Alien Gene, to create a potion that could merge with the human body and endow humans with the Alien Gene's attribute ability, one must search. Indeed, search. If his goal was not just to extract an Alien Gene for fusion, but to transform a genetic ability into an innate part of himself, he needed more than just a fragment of a gene... What he had previously extracted was just a small fragment of the White-faced Coarse-tailed Ape's Antidote Gene, and there were many types of such fragments on the ape. His previous approach was to refine this tiny gene fragment into an Antidote Gene Potion that could merge with the human body. Fortunately, he had not been successful. He no longer pursued that method and had to collect countless such gene fragments, then add other genes, even his own, to merge with this gene, forming a new gene... This was the refinement of new genes. This process of creating new genes was not just borrowing the innate ability of an Alien Gene. It was about taking the expression of that Alien Gene and transforming the skill into one's own attribute ability. Ding Huan was exhilarated; he felt his use of Alien Genes had evolved from a quantitative change to a qualitative one. He was no longer superficial in his gene utilization. But how difficult would it be to extract the specific complete gene he needed from billions of genes? Ding Huan looked at his notebook and knew that if he continued like this, even if he filled several truckloads of notebooks, he might not be able to find all the gene fragments he needed. An abrupt method surfaced in Ding Huan's mind; he could use a gene death screening process... By adding a certain gene to the billions of gene fragments, any fragment that didn't meet his needs would dissolve, leaving only the desired ones. Others might not know how to insert the dissolving gene fragments, but he did. With a solution in mind, Ding Huan took a deep breath and without wasting even half a minute, rushed back to the lab. Continuing the extraction of the White-faced Coarse-tailed Ape's Antidote Gene, making the potion, adding the dissolving gene... One day, two days... One set of data after another was recorded by Ding Huan, then screened again and new dissolving genes added... On the sixth day, Ding Huan excitedly clutched two test tubes containing fiery red Genetic Potions. He had succeeded in creating two doses of Antidote Gene Potion. To Ding Huan, these two vials of Genetic Potion felt even more precious than the Spirit Root Gene Potions he had made before. It wasn't that the Spirit Root Gene Potion was easier to make, but because he had found a new direction in genetic fusion, beyond merely creating Genetic Potions. With this method, Ding Huan felt even more confident about creating the Spirit Root Gene Potion for Qu Yi. However, it required Qu Yi's cooperation, as he would need to find a Spirit Root Gene Potion that could merge with Qu Yi. He would need to use Qu Yi's blood and find a way to integrate the Spirit Root Gene Potion with Qu Yi's genome. He must set out for Pu Hai in advance. Having made up his mind, Ding Huan carefully packed one of the Antidote Gene Potions into a glass bottle and swallowed the other potion without hesitation. The fire-colored potion turned into streams of icy threads upon ingestion, which instantly spread throughout Ding Huan's body. Fortuitously inspired, Ding Huan quickly began to practice the Luo Shijin Cultivation Technique. The next moment, he felt sharp pains tearing through his body, but those pains seemed to be swept away and dissolved by the icy threads. Droplets of grey fluid oozed from his fingertips, and a sense of aftershock and anger surged within him. He had been poisoned, and if it weren't for taking his own refined Genetic Potion today. Even if he survived, his path to Cultivation and Genetic Foundation Establishment may well have been blocked. (Today's update ends here, friends. Good night.
