However, the initial test has been considered successful, proving that this path is the right one.
So, Fang Yuan caught a large number of animals again, injected them with the bloodline essence fruit juice containing magical elements, and then kept them in different areas of the Creation God Mountain.
After doing this, Fang Yuan was preparing to return to the real world when suddenly a thought occurred to him. He remembered Xu Xiaomeng's words.
"A game? Could I make the Steel Ball World into a game?"
Fang Yuan had a sudden inspiration.
The entire Steel Ball World belonged to him. He was the ruler of this world, able to transform it at will.
He could make some connection between this world and the outside, and turning it into a game was not necessarily impossible.
However, turning the entire world into a game might be difficult.
Fang Yuan thought for a while and decided to choose a small area to test it first. It would be nice to play a game in his spare time.
The game characters would be the life forms in the Steel Ball World.
As the saying goes, "Divine beings playing games with humans," Fang Yuan felt that since he was the Creator God, playing games with the lives of the world as pieces was nothing significant. After all, most of the life forms in the world were created by him.
But before that, the creation of magic beasts had to be accelerated. With magic beasts, the game would be much more interesting. Otherwise, if there were only humans, what fun would it be?
So, Fang Yuan continued capturing more animals from around the world, injecting them with the bloodline essence fruit juice containing magical elements.
Almost all animals injected with this fruit juice would undergo mutations in a short period of time, causing changes to their bloodlines.
These mutations were deep-rooted, not temporary, and could almost never be cured. Even draining all their blood wouldn't help.
Blood is not the same as the bloodline.
After these mutated animals gave birth to offspring, Fang Yuan sent them down to the Creation God Mountain and released them into the surrounding forests.
These animals had already mutated, and although they could not yet cast magic, they could now possess magical power, allowing them to unleash fire or lightning when in danger.
Fire and lightning were not considered magic, but more like magical power.
Only after magical elements were arranged into forms such as fireballs could they be considered magic.
That was Fang Yuan's definition of it.
The released animals continued to breed and mutate, and the first generation of magic beasts was born.
Fang Yuan also discovered that the bloodline essence fruit and magical elements could, to some extent, enhance the intelligence of the animals. As these animals slowly turned into magic beasts, their intelligence would improve.
Maybe someday, these animals would learn to control their own powers, learn to arrange magical elements, and cast magic.
At the same time, Fang Yuan took all the books he had previously bought on biological genetics and used the world's power to scan them, directly using the power of the world god to learn and master the knowledge, and then applied it flexibly, creating innovations.
After mastering the basic technologies, Fang Yuan took items like deer antlers and cow horns, cloned and cultivated them, infused them with the power of the bloodline essence fruit, and imprinted magical element arrangements, allowing them to naturally form magic.
In this way, magic beasts could naturally cast magic, and the magic they cast would be fixed.
These magical element arrays imprinted with the power of the bloodline essence fruit would be inherited by their offspring, allowing future generations to possess the same power.
For consistency, Fang Yuan set a rule that each species would only have one type of magic.
For example, a wolf with a horn could only cast wind blades.
Next, Fang Yuan set up a world rule, allowing different species to mate and produce offspring. After the bloodlines merged, the offspring would undergo mutation, automatically developing new magical element arrays.
This allowed magic beasts to be born with different types of magic, and they would be able to cast various kinds of magic.
After generations of breeding, eventually, magic beasts would flourish, covering the entire Steel Ball World.
Since the time flow in the Steel Ball World was different from the real world, Fang Yuan was not in a hurry to return to Earth. He remained in the Steel Ball World, tirelessly creating magic beasts.
Each magic beast created by Fang Yuan was released into different regions of the world, where they continued to breed and mutate.
Most of the magic beasts were sent down from the Creation God Mountain, allowing them to breed in the surrounding forests.
Year after year, the number of magic beasts around Creation God Mountain increased. Centered around the mountain, they gradually spread outward, forming a genuine "Magic Beast Forest."
Before long, Fang Yuan had stayed in the Steel Ball World for ten years.
In those ten years, he had collected various magic spells derived from humans, elves, gods, and others, adding them to various animals to create an unknown number of magic beasts.
He even applied biological technology to transform various creatures, such as grafting the wings of a large crane onto a horse, creating flying horses.
Tigers, lions, and others were also given wings so they could fly.
Additionally, he added four legs to snakes, which, although redundant, made the species more diverse. These transformed creatures could cast stronger magic, as the multiple biological bases in their bodies strengthened the magical element arrays. Some even evolved multiple magical element arrays, allowing them to cast various types of magic.
After ten years, Fang Yuan's biological grafting technology had become proficient, and he felt that even without helping others graft brains, it would probably not be a problem.
"Ha, finally done!"
After releasing a flying dog from Creation God Mountain, Fang Yuan let out a deep sigh of relief.
Ten years without rest, and he had finally completed the preliminary modification of magic beasts. It was even more exhausting than creating intelligent life.
"Maybe when I have time, I'll create angels or something, but now, it's time to develop the real game!"
Fang Yuan smiled slightly and instantly teleported to a vast plain on the human continent.
This region was sparsely populated, with few people visiting.
It was less of a plain and more of a vast grassland, stretching endlessly like a green sea. The sight was refreshing and relaxing.
However, due to the lack of resources and the absence of magic beasts, very few people visited this area.
Fang Yuan focused his mind and selected a 100-mile radius at the center of the grassland. The world's power surged, locking down the area.
He then used fruit magic to replicate a similar region, compressing it to form a special map.
Finally, Fang Yuan used world power to turn this map into a screen, infused with various magic techniques he had developed.
Next, Fang Yuan integrated computer technology, using magical elements to replace C language and edit the world program, binding it to the world power and setting various operational methods.
In this way, anyone could control this region, making it possible to summon winds, rain, or even move mountains and fill seas.
Fang Yuan believed that such a game would be addictive to anyone.
Since this game was meant for his own enjoyment, he had no intention of promoting it to make money.
The ultimate purpose of the game was to push the world's development, selecting a character to influence the entire world. That character would be the temporary protagonist.
