Wang Hao felt a cold sweat break out on his back. Although the laboratory here was kept at a constant temperature all year round, making people feel comfortable, at this moment he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his face turned pale.
You must know that the power of curses is ethereal and extremely difficult to cultivate. Even with his Great Perfection Immortal King realm, he was unable to comprehend its mysteries and couldn't even get past the threshold of entry.
While in Mount Tai, encountering a cultivator killed by a curse could be considered a coincidence. But now, to encounter another such cultivator, with even more sophisticated methods, is truly remarkable.
Because the Death Immortal's signature technique is a bizarre method that can curse and kill the enemy's soul and consciousness, called the Soul-Destroying Curse.
The most distinctive feature of this Soul-Destroying Curse is that the soul dies but the body remains intact. The reason why the physical body does not perish is that the body is unaware that it has died and subconsciously absorbs the surrounding spiritual energy.
Following the usual path of cultivation, one can cultivate normally, while this body can be used to create a puppet or as a cultivation vessel through secret techniques.
"Could it be that the Immortal Venerable of Death came here before? But why did he curse and kill the cultivators here?" Wang Hao was completely puzzled and felt that there was a huge conspiracy behind this.
"What's wrong? You don't look well." At this moment, Chi Tu walked over and saw that Wang Hao's face was pale and he was sweating a lot, so he went up to ask.
Wang Hao shook his head. Just then, the middle-aged man said in a serious voice, "How much of that active substance did you extract from this female cultivator?"
Xia Xue replied, "We still have some major clients waiting for our samples, but we don't want to exhaust our resources. Over the years, we have been trying to artificially cultivate the cells of female alchemists."
"But the results were not ideal because her blood contained supernatural power, and once it left the body, its properties were extremely unstable, resulting in many laboratory explosions."
"Furthermore, we have an experiment in which we plan to try to upload the thoughts and memories of a volunteer from Tianxing into the brain of a female monk and reactivate the bioelectricity in her brain."
"Let's see if we can use her incredibly powerful physical activity to give another person a new life, a second life, somewhat similar to reincarnation in the West."
The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically, and he shouted in a fit of rage, "No way!"
The people around were also stunned. Xia Xue's words were becoming more and more mysterious, even mentioning reincarnation.
"Over there in Tianxing, this technology has been accumulated to a certain level. In the eyes of us researchers, everyone is actually no different from a robot."
"It's just that ours is more delicate and complex. Human brain activity is just a series of complex programs, which can theoretically be replicated."
Xia Xue spoke eloquently, becoming more and more excited as she spoke. She also mentioned that, according to research, this female cultivator could live for nearly a thousand years.
The middle-aged man said in a deep voice, "This experimental project you mentioned must be suspended, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. Also, who is that volunteer?"
He felt that ordinary people would never get this opportunity. He wanted to use the female cultivator's body to revive, live for hundreds of years without dying, and live a second life.
“It’s Ms. Zhao, the founder of our Origin Gene Research Institute.” Xia Xue was very calm, because 80 percent of the funding for building this underground experimental site came from Ms. Zhao.
The middle-aged man said in a deep voice, "Since we're going to cooperate, I think we should come up with the safest solution. What you're doing is too risky and dangerous."
Xia Xue sighed and said, "Actually, I don't agree with reviving another person's thoughts and memories in her. I prefer the latter option."
"That means completely dissecting this female cultivator's body and then using the most advanced equipment from Tianxing to completely decipher her body's genetic and structural information."
Wang Hao was speechless upon hearing this, and at the same time, he felt sorry for the female cultivator. Her nascent soul had been inexplicably cursed to death, and she could not find peace even after thousands of years of death. Not only was her blood being drawn, but now she was about to be dissected.
The middle-aged man was startled. He was surprised that this seemingly quiet woman had such a crazy side. He quickly said, "Don't act rashly. If we're going to cooperate, we must discuss it together."
"Could it be that this female cultivator didn't leave anything behind after her death?" Wang Hao couldn't help but ask. He felt that a Nascent Soul cultivator would definitely have a storage ring.
However, Xia Xue shook her head and said, "There's nothing there, nothing at all. When we came in, this underground cavern looked like it had been the site of a huge explosion."
"However, some golden bamboo was found around the stone boat. These bamboo contained incredibly powerful energy and were extremely active."
Wang Hao frowned, somewhat disappointed, but interested in the golden bamboo. He believed it must be a spiritual herb that could be used to refine pills, but he needed to see it in person to be sure.
The middle-aged man continued, "Do you have any other research plans or directions? Tell us about them."
Xia Xue nodded and said, "There is another plan called the Longevity Plan. Apart from the disappearance of her spiritual will, this female cultivator's body is just like that of a normal person."
"It's like she's in a vegetative state, but her physiological age is very young, making her suitable for conceiving life. Perhaps we can artificially cultivate a nun's child."
Upon hearing this, even the two composed experts from the military were shocked and speechless, feeling that the researchers from Tianxing were somewhat insane!
The middle-aged man was also stunned for a moment, subconsciously adjusting his white-rimmed glasses, and asked in surprise, "You mean, you're planning to let this female cultivator give birth again after three thousand years?!"
"That's right. She is the only person we've discovered who is truly close to immortality, breaking the ceiling of human life. If we can get her to have a child, then that child will definitely inherit this substance."
"Furthermore, if we add the consciousness transfer technology mentioned earlier, once successful, we can say that we have achieved so-called immortality from another direction."
Xia Xue's face was filled with fanaticism, even more excited than when she said she wanted to dissect the female cultivator. She even couldn't help but wave her arm forcefully.
As the head of the exploration organization, Mu Long was usually very calm and composed, but now he was shocked. He felt that these researchers were even more terrifying than himself when they went crazy.
Wang Hao was also completely bewildered. He never expected that, as a cultivator, he would become a surrogate mother after death.
The middle-aged man said very seriously, "We cannot conduct such experiments at this stage. It violates human ethics and morality, and if some irreversible accident occurs, no one can bear the responsibility!"
Xia Xue, as one of the project leaders, had a lot of power, but she didn't intend to go against the grain. She said, "We didn't originally plan to start it in the near future."
"Although the mother body is powerful enough, it is difficult to find a suitable father. Let's wait a few years. If a young Heavenly Realm expert appears in the martial arts world, we can consider it."
"As for the abandoned cultivation method, let's forget about it. It's impossible for someone like the female cultivator to appear again. This path is becoming increasingly impassable in this era. It's too slow to show results and it's not universally applicable."
