Chapter 174 Han Li's First Batch of Super Genes

"Such a strong evil intent." Looking at the constantly writhing dark purple gas, Russell couldn't help but narrow his eyes, as if he had seen something interesting, and his smile became somewhat amused.

"Senior's knowledge is indeed vast." Master Qingwei sighed and explained the origin of the evil energy to everyone present.

Back then, the demon and ghost realms wreaked havoc on the human world, plunging all living beings into misery. Although the five elders, led by him, were not weak in cultivation, they were ultimately powerless against the overwhelming onslaught. Six or seven out of ten of the people on Mount Shu died in battle, and the mountain's protective formation was broken several times.

Left with no other choice, they had to practice the forbidden art of "Ultimate Purity" to completely eliminate their evil thoughts in order to increase their power and cope with the calamity.

Later, the demon and ghost realms were successfully repelled, but who would have thought that their five evil thoughts would merge into one, transforming into a strange creature that was neither within the Six Paths nor within the Five Elements.

This creature could not be destroyed by ordinary means. They tried countless methods, but all ended in failure. They had no choice but to seal it in the Demon Locking Tower. Over the years, it absorbed the demonic energy of countless demons in the Demon Locking Tower day after day and year after year. Now, the seal could no longer be maintained, so they had to ask Jing Tian to send it to the divine pool in the heavenly realm for purification.

"Um, I have a question." After listening, Jing Tian couldn't help but raise a hand and asked curiously, "Why do you trust me so much? If you can't even solve this, what can a newbie like me who just started cultivating do? I am Jing Tian now, not Fei Peng."

Qing smiled and said, "This is not only the guidance of fate, but also my belief that you, Brother Jing, can do it. It has nothing to do with your status, but only with your heart."

"Fate—" Russell listened from the side, clicking his tongue and shaking his head.

When he watched the plot, he felt it was unreasonable. The five Daoist Qingwei were indeed powerful, able to guard Mount Shu and repel the demon and ghost realms. They would be considered first-rate figures in the human cultivation world, but they were only first-rate in the human world, not even immortals.

To put it bluntly, it's like Chonglou got drunk one day, couldn't hold back anymore, and ejaculated against the wall. That thing developed sentience, and its essence is far superior to the evil thoughts these five old men came up with.

Yet this evil thought managed to grow to the point where it could punch Chonglou and kick Feipeng in just a few decades, which seemed absurd no matter how you looked at it.

Now that he has seen it with his own eyes, he understands—what evil sword immortal? He is just an incarnation of that bastard Fuxi, and even he is somewhat envious of the world rules contained within him.

Should we take this opportunity to scam him?

The thought flashed through Russell's mind, but he dismissed it in an instant.

After all, it was an away game, and who knows if those three were still watching him from that mysterious space.

They might not care about the Five Elemental Pearls and the Holy Spirit Pearl, but if it really touched upon something like the laws of nature, Shennong and Nuwa would certainly not stand idly by.

Before leaving, you can try to take advantage of some freebies, but for now, don't be impatient. First, refine the three primal forces you've acquired.

"Master Qingwei." With that thought, Russell interrupted Master Qingwei, who was still exchanging pleasantries with Jingtian, and got straight to the point: "I need a secluded room for closed-door cultivation. Also, if possible, I would like to exchange some Shushan Sect techniques."

"This—" Before Daoist Qingwei could speak, Elder Canggu couldn't help but refuse, saying, "The cultivation method is the foundation of a sect. How can it be easily given to others? You'd better give up this idea."

He simply couldn't beat Russell; otherwise, if anyone else had said that, he would have drawn his sword and attacked them.

Can cultivation techniques be exchanged?

If the other party painstakingly studies the shortcomings of the technique and actually discovers even a little bit of a targeted trick, and then spreads it, wouldn't the Shu Mountain Sect become lambs to the slaughter?

"Alas, this impulsive old man is mistaken." Luo Su cleared his throat and began to use the same words he had used to deceive Kumārajīva to try to fool the five elders of Mount Shu. However, the old men were the old men. Not only were their cultivation levels high, but their experience and temperament were also extremely high. They did not show any sign of being manipulated and remained silent.

"If it doesn't work out, then forget it." Russell pursed his lips, not really caring. He was just trying it out. As for the cultivation techniques, he just wanted to indulge in collecting them. It didn't matter whether he got them or not.

"Senior, you misunderstand." Qingwei stroked his beard, his clear eyes filled with a smile. "I was just thinking about which secret chamber would be better to give up. As for the cultivation techniques, please rest assured, senior, they will all be delivered to you within three days."

"Sect Leader, Senior Brother!" Upon hearing this, Cang Gu turned around abruptly and immediately tried to stop him, but Qing Wei promptly reached out and pressed down on him, stopping him from continuing with her eyes.

"Master Qingwei, I have no intention of coercing or bribing you. If it's inconvenient, just say so. There's no need to force me," Russell added, lest others think he was there to cause trouble.

"I understand, Senior need not worry." Qingwei smiled and nodded, then looked at Xu Changqing: "Changqing, you will take Senior Luo to Wuji Pavilion. As for the cultivation method, let Changyin handle it."

"Disciple obeys." Although Xu Changqing did not know what his sect leader meant, his obedient nature, which he had developed since childhood, prevented him from asking any questions. In any case, he believed that if his master did it this way, he would do it this way. After receiving the order, he led Russell away.

"Sect Leader, Senior Brother." Once the two had walked a distance, Cang Gu hurriedly approached, barely able to suppress the anxiety surging from the depths of his chest: "What on earth happened? We might as well fight to the death!"

The Shushan Sect has always adhered to the principle of "better to be a broken jade than a whole tile."

For a thousand years, they have maintained peace among mankind. They have never suffered such humiliation. A stranger of unknown origin came to their door demanding their cultivation techniques. Not only did the sect leader not refuse, but he also offered to give them all within three days. If this gets out, how will the Shu Mountain sect save face?

"Junior Brother Cang Gu," Daoist Qingwei sighed helplessly, "it's not to the extent you described."

"As for the cultivation method, there's no need to say more. There are some things I cannot say out loud, so please forgive me, fellow disciples."

He glimpsed his destiny.

This is a gift he received after practicing the Pure Dharma and eliminating evil thoughts. In recent years, his mind has been clearer than ever before, like a spotless bronze mirror in which he can occasionally catch glimpses of the future.

It was in these blurry fragments that he saw the scene three hundred days later: the birth of the Evil Sword Immortal, and the transformation of the human world into a purgatory.

The city collapsed, lives were lost, corpses littered the fields, and rivers of blood flowed.

As the creators of the Evil Sword Immortal and the sealers for thousands of years, given the Evil Sword Immortal's nature, they would never let them off so easily.

Their deaths are insignificant, merely the karmic retribution, but the disciples of Mount Shu should not have died.

Of the more than a thousand disciples of Mount Shu, some were children who had only been in the sect for less than a year and had not even learned to fly on a sword, while others were exceptionally talented young people who should have had bright futures. There was no need for them to pay the price with their lives because of a single wrong decision they made back then.

If Russell could stay at Mount Shu, he might be able to greatly reduce the number of Mount Shu disciples who would die.

This can be considered the last bit of thought that a teacher should have for his students.

On a cliff face on the back of Mount Shu, before an antique-style pavilion, Xu Changqing stopped: "Senior Luo, this is the Wuji Pavilion."

"Thank you for your trouble." Russell nodded. The environment here was indeed excellent, and its location was the most spiritually vibrant place in the entire Shu Mountain. It was clear that Daoist Qingwei was not fooling him. To express his gratitude, Russell decided to eliminate some potential problems for him in advance: "During our conversation just now, Changqing, were you also going to the Heavenly Realm with Jingtian to deliver the box?"

Xu Changqing paused slightly after turning around, then nodded and said solemnly, "That's right. The sins of our teacher are also my fault. I naturally have an obligation to do my part."

Russell spoke slowly and deliberately, "Didn't you consider that evil thought shares the same origin as your five teachers? If it were to die, what would happen to your five teachers?"

Xu Changqing's expression changed drastically, his feet froze on the spot, and the color drained from his face at a visible speed.

He knew that with Russell's cultivation and character, he would not speak carelessly.

"Very good." Seeing Xu Changqing's reaction, Russell smiled with satisfaction, entered the pavilion, and closed the door.

The interior of the pavilion was minimalist in its furnishings: a futon, a low table with a bronze incense burner on it, and the four walls were bare except for a huge Tai Chi diagram painted on the wall facing the main entrance.

Black and white, distinct and intertwined. The ink is as deep and somber as an abyss, the white as pure as the first snow. The two yin-yang fish chase each other, never stopping, yet never touching.

Facing the Tai Chi diagram, Russell sat down cross-legged, and the three streams of primordial power flowed into his upper, middle, and lower dantian, where he began to breathe and refine them.

As night fell, the bright moon hung high in the sky.

However, there was no sign of calm on Mount Shu. Centered on the Wuji Pavilion where Russell was located, a series of loud buzzing sounds accompanied the surging of a powerful spiritual energy barrier. The sounds were deep and resonant, like a huge bronze bell being struck. The sound echoed among the mountains, spread above the sea of ​​clouds, and exploded in the ears and hearts of every Mount Shu disciple.

The booming sound, like the beating of drums, could be heard throughout the entire Shu Mountain.

Despite the noise, no one on Mount Shu dared to say anything, because the roar was not noise, but the sound of the Great Dao that resonated with the rhythm of heaven and earth.

Amidst this roar, many talented fellow disciples have already achieved enlightenment, broken through bottlenecks, and greatly increased their cultivation.

Therefore, everyone on Mount Shu worked exceptionally hard that day and night. The disciples who had already achieved enlightenment dared not slack off and struck while the iron was hot, hoping to take another step forward while the voice of the Great Dao was still there. The disciples who had not yet achieved enlightenment were even more eager, watching their fellow disciples break through one after another while they were still standing still. This feeling was like being slowly tortured.

From midnight to 1 AM, and from 1 AM to 3 AM, sword energy continuously soared into the sky, and spiritual energy was continuously exhaled and absorbed into the body.

The mountain path was filled with figures practicing swordsmanship, and the corridor was also full of disciples meditating.

In other words, Chang Yin, that beast of burden, was still in the Sutra Repository organizing the mountain of cultivation techniques, oblivious to everything else around him.

This continued until dawn, when the roaring sound finally stopped, leaving many people wanting more.

"Senior brother, is this what you foresaw?" In the Haoqi Tower, Cang Gu gazed at the Wuji Pavilion as the spiritual energy barrier gradually dissipated, and couldn't help but swallow.

That night, the overall cultivation level of the Shu Mountain disciples improved significantly.

"It cannot be said, it cannot be said." Master Qingwei chuckled. This was an unexpected stroke of luck. By all accounts, their Shu Mountain had won big.

[Chat Group Channel]

Zhang Chulan: "So, that's it, these are this guy's physical stats."

Half a month ago, Han Li sent the first batch of super genes to Zhang Chulan via red envelope. Zhang Chulan lived up to expectations and quickly distributed the super genes, recording the changes in the physical condition of different batches of super gene injectors over the past half month.

Of the three hundred people, only a handful showed obvious signs of rejection; the majority of people did not experience any positive effects, and there were no casualties.

Among the test subjects who clearly showed special enhancements, fifteen people received a physical enhancement. Judging from their battles against Ding Shian and Na Ruhu, who were known as two heroes, they were roughly equivalent to one-tenth of Ding Shian's combat strength.

In addition, six others gained the ability to control elements, and their combat power was nearly half that of Ding Shian.

The guy Zhang Chulan mentioned is known as the best candidate for this super gene experiment. He not only has the ability to become a half-dragon, but he can also kill Ding An and Na Ruhu's combined forces in a 1v1 battle, which makes the company's senior management exclaim that it is incredible.

Who are Ding Shian and Na Ruhu? In the current world of superhumans, apart from the one on Longhu Mountain, which superhuman dares to say that he can easily defeat these two? But this guy who was injected with the drug did it with ease. You should know that before this, he was not even a superhuman, but just an ordinary special forces soldier.

He served in the army for five years, trained hard, and had outstanding physical abilities, but that was all. He didn't know any martial arts techniques, and he had no background as an superhuman. After being injected with super genes, he went from an ordinary person to someone standing at the top of the superhuman world.

Most importantly, this drug has the potential for mass production.

The Luoyun Sect Laboratory.

Han Li stood in front of the control panel, examining the DNA data of the gene matcher sent by Zhang Chulan. The dense gene sequences on the screen unfolded before his eyes, and the double strands of the helical structure slowly rotated in the data stream, with each pair of bases flashing a different color.

He compared the data of the test subjects he had recruited, his brows relaxed slightly, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although his side suffered heavy casualties and the survival rate of experimental subjects was less than one in ten, this was the result of variables that he could control. In other words, this experiment was as successful as it could possibly be.

After all, this super gene was created by him based on Elder Feng's genetic prototype, and only Elder Feng could perfectly bring out the full efficacy of this medicine.

As for Zhang Chulan, considering the different absorption abilities of supernatural beings and cultivators, he provided a diluted solution.

The reason that special forces soldier was able to absorb the drug's effects so perfectly was because a large portion of his genetic sequence was similar to Elder Feng's.

After that, we only need to observe Elder Feng's experimental results before we can begin the next step of super gene research.

"Looks like I can finally get some rest." Beside Han Li, Zhuge Dali took off her goggles, rubbed the red marks on her nose, and said with a sigh of relief as her long hair fell down from the collar of her white coat.

She has been in this world for many years and has finally gotten her first vacation. This time, she is going to go back and sleep for three days and three nights.

"Thank you for your hard work." Han Li coughed awkwardly. He knew exactly how much Zhuge Dali had exploited him, and a hint of guilt appeared on his face.

Of course, it's just a tiny bit. If you ask whether they'll continue to squeeze it in the future, the answer is yes, they will continue to squeeze it.
