I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early

Old Cat, who had come to join in the fun, immediately understood that this guy Lu Yuan had snagged some goodies as soon as he heard him speak. He jumped onto Lu Yuan's shoulder and asked quietly, "Are you keeping secrets from your comrades now? How much did you pocket?"

"Nowadays humans are getting richer and richer, but I'm getting poorer and poorer... cough, cough, I didn't pocket anything!" Lu Yuan was quite helpless, "If it's useful to you, I can give you some."

One of the big events in his life was helping Old Cat become a true living being.

For now, Old Cat only had the sense of touch, still a far cry from being alive.

"Forget it, I can't eat anything anyway..."

"And besides, I'm not some low-level organism." Old Cat shook his head, "Humans are leading pretty good lives... Are you preparing something for your man-made God?"

"You can't hide anything from me. Not sure if it'll be of any use, though."

A scientist with the Divine Skill of "liquid control" began carefully collecting egg whites.

All of the egg whites clinging on the shell added up to about 5 kilograms, filling up a large glass bottle—of course, it was also intentionally left by Lu Yuan.

Humans eating this stuff didn't really mean much, seemingly only holding off hunger, but for ordinary animals it was practically a leap in life!

So the scientists passionately discussed, what animal should they feed it to?

"Doesn't the Little Mirage Dragon want it?"

"It's already completed its evolution, with a Divine Attribute of 4.1, and actually has quite high intelligence, so it's not really needed anymore."

They hadn't discussed much when Lu Yuan suddenly smelled a faint sordid scent and quickly said, "It feels like it's about to spoil! You guys better hurry up and find some animals to feed, keeping just one hundred grams for research is enough!"

Time was extremely limited, and humans did not know if freezing it would destroy its activity, so they hastily nourished the Extraordinary Creatures that had higher yields originally, like Poisonous King Peak, Sky Scorpion, Snake King, and even Cannibal Flower, Big Pear Tree, and various Extraordinary Plants, which also got a little bit.

All of the creatures seemed to know that this was good stuff, and gobbled it as if they went wild, eating themselves into a stupor.

Even the plants had a minor reaction.

5 kilograms was actually quite a lot.

For most creatures, 10 grams, or maybe 20 grams was already sufficient.

Eventually, they fed 1000 young egg-laying chickens, leaving these egg-laying tasks to them in the future.

If every chicken could become an Extraordinary Life, it's estimated that they could provide an output of 20-30 Spirit Essence consumables a year! Experience new tales on My Virtual Library Empire

"Gaga gaga gaga gaga!" The Epic Level 2 Extraordinary Creature—Chicken Snake, became the Chicken Boss. After its evolution, it learned to fly.

It began to command the flock of chickens.

This bustling scene drove men mad and delighted women.

The last hundred grams of "egg whites," after being frozen, was taken back to the laboratory for research—even if the experiment failed, the loss was bearable.

A group of scientists left chattering and laughing, their hearts full of excitement.

Epic Level research material was the highest level they had encountered!

...

Then, more journalists rushed to Green Mountain. A group of cute girls surrounded the Little Mirage Dragon with joy and laughter, each wanting to hold it and pet it a little.

"So cute~"

"When it grows up, it's actually even cuter. This one is golden... it's a little different from that one."

Poor Little Loach, at first it wanted to show off its might, spewing a few mouthfuls of fire to scare the women away.

But the little guy, just born on the first day, didn't have much strength and soon ran out of energy, getting caught by those pesky humans.

"Roar!"

"Look, it's quite fierce, trying to bite me!"

Lu Yuan and a group of male journalists helplessly stood to one side, watching the girls torment the dragon, their soft white hands touching it all over.

The young girls let out pleasant laughter.

"Old Deng is really still not popular..."

"I'm old, I'm old, even Conch Girl is ignoring me now, her heart belongs to another."

Lu Yuan rolled his eyes in jealousy, reminiscing about the feeling of being surrounded by song and dance.

Suddenly, something warm nestled up against my foot.

Looking down, it was the rejuvenated Old Wolf, glowing with vitality, now gazing at him with eyes ablaze.

"Indeed, I can always count on an old pal, never abandoning me."

Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel touched, but in the next second, that shameless wolf actually revealed a challenging expression and urinated right next to his foot—it thought of itself now as an Extraordinary Life, a king among the Pangu Grey Wolf species, daring to challenge Old Lu's authority!

"Arf arf arf!" Old Wolf barked in defiance.

Today, I am the master! You're just my lackey.

"I bet you're itching to become dog meat today," Lu Yuan gritted his teeth and started beating the damned wolf.

Suddenly, cries and howls echoed throughout Green Mountain.

The Extraordinary·Old Wolf urinated again.

Poor "Little Loach" also suffered torture, wanting to hide in Chicken Mother's embrace.

But Chicken Mother quickly turned traitor, averted her beak to one side, and looked on surreptitiously.

It's a chicken's nature to bully the weak and fear the strong; humans seemed too powerful in its eyes... no chance to resist.

Thus, it felt the terror of a woman on the very day it was born.

This scene left a deep psychological shadow on it.

From today onwards, it preferred Lu Yuan even more than Conch, causing the bright-eyed, white-toothed maiden great sorrow, completely perplexed: "Don't I have the Ability of Animal Affinity?"

"Why doesn't it like me?"

Of course, that's a matter for another time...

...

...

"Extra! Extra! After five years, the Mirage Cloud Dragon has finally hatched! [Photo] [Photo]"

"It will spend its childhood on Green Mountain and at Green Grass School, cared for by animal experts, as the internet continues to vote on a name..."

"Breaking news, Sky City's launch plan has won the high approval of the upper council. The destination is still directed towards human civilization's motherland."

"The expansion of Sky City has officially begun. Upon completion, the city area will be tripled in size. The government will invest redundant production capacity to offset the surplus of steel and cement capabilities."

Amongst the messy assortment of news, humanity once again makes ready for the journey.

In the territory of the Source Fire Civilization, humans have reaped much, suffered through a disaster, and experienced a spiritual baptism.

Especially the appearance of the little Mirage Dragon, it has truly incited a nationwide frenzy!

This lively and lovely little guy quickly became the star of Green City, each photo, each video, drawing countless onlookers. The people even gave it a name—Big Golden!

Yes, that's the oddly chosen top-voted name! (The main reason being a large number of males started a prank vote out of envy and jealousy.)

Conch Girl, upon hearing the nonsensically chosen name, was on the verge of tears, "Can we revoke the vote on the naming decision?"

Whereas Lu Yuan, who secretly voted for the name "Big Golden," felt smugly content, endlessly extolling, "It seems that humans' yearning for power still prevails over the mere desire to nurture cute pets. People hope it will grow big. Cute pets have no significance in this era; Big Golden, right?"

Little Mirage Dragon also felt the name "Big Golden" was pretty cool!

Women... are quite incomprehensible!

Occasionally, its figure would appear in the "History Museum" at the northeastern corner of Sky City.

There, many relics were displayed, and many stories buried.

From Meida, Green Grass, Mandala, to the Source Fire Civilization...

Looking at past stories that had unfolded, the Mirage Cloud Dragon stared blankly, itself devoid of related memories, merely aware that the photo of the grand white dragon was its past life.

Perhaps such is the nature of life and death.

Decline is just another facet of prosperity; decline is merely a gathering of strength for prosperity anew. Only when decline and prosperity come together can they form a complete life.
