I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature-Chapter 1437 - 1020: Then Study Hard
Simply put, the weight of a regular indigenous individual is balanced, and each parallel individual has the same weight.
This means they cannot directly influence each other, and any changes at the individual level are suppressed by the collective, resulting in no changes.
Now, Zheng Yichen has integrated some of the parallel individuals of the indigenous people, causing their weights to change, giving them more influence when cultivating special powers.
Although they are still influenced by other parallel collectives, this influence is no longer absolute, and they can even reverse the influence on other parallel individuals.
The issue with the corresponding parallel individuals has reversed, where the collective used to balance the individual, now the individual affects the collective.
Although it still leads to slow cultivation, the nature is different; the former was entirely due to ordinary influence, which led to slow or ineffective cultivation.
In the latter case, the slow cultivation is because the individual is affecting the entire collective, balancing the cultivation effects across all parallel individuals, which makes the progress slow.
But as long as accumulation is possible, letting all parallel individuals possess the corresponding cultivation traits, the issue of slow cultivation will be effectively resolved, and may even accelerate due to this unified change.
At this stage, their slow cultivation can be seen as laying a foundation.
Other parallel individuals without these individuals’ weight, no matter how they cultivate other powers, won’t come into conflict or interfere with independent individuals.
When the weight is insufficient to interfere with higher-weight individuals, the conflicting influence produced is first dismantled by other parallel individuals of the same weight.
They can only accept the influence brought by higher-weight individuals.
After listening to Lilith’s report, Zheng Yichen smiled: "Very well, what did you just say? Willing to do anything, right? Then I’ll give you this opportunity now, and what you need to do next is cultivation!"
"Cultivation? How is that possible... Our cultivation has no significance." The indigenous person seemed more puzzled, rubbing her forehead.
After being pulled into Virtual Genesis by Lilith, she felt her consciousness accelerating, as if she had experienced many events, but they seemed unreal due to being overly condensed.
"That’s not important, what’s important is that you should fulfill your promise."
"I... I understand." The indigenous person knew she had no choice, and angering Zheng Yichen would not result in him killing her outright, torture?
She wasn’t afraid of torture, but what Zheng Yichen wanted to do seemed worse than torture in her view.
Death didn’t matter, torture didn’t matter, but becoming a Unifier was something she couldn’t accept.
"This won’t make me a Unifier, right?"
Her question was met with Zheng Yichen’s gentle smile.
The indigenous people present were visibly shaken, as they had all attempted cultivation before, never thinking it could be related to becoming a Unifier; if so, they wouldn’t have pursued it.
"...No, I refuse to do what’s next!" The indigenous person shouted in refusal, but under the premise of their undying and indestructible nature seemingly fading away, they were getting closer to madness.
"Hehehe, this isn’t up to you, cultivate well, and you’ll have a chance to live.
But if you do nothing and completely become a Unifier, you’ll be just an ordinary person, and if I release you then, will you be able to survive?"
Zheng Yichen’s gentle smile didn’t change at all, making the captured indigenous people quite despondent.
They had hunted Unifiers before, and knew what treatment awaited them after becoming Unifiers...
If they really became Unifiers and lacked the strength to protect themselves, they had no confidence they could survive the hunt.
Zheng Yichen’s current demands had instead become their ’survival requirement’.
