Luo Tian waved his hand, seemingly asking a question casually without intending to.

"The alchemy you possess is bio-alchemy, isn't it?"

A flicker of wariness crossed Shutak's eyes, but it quickly vanished, and he shook his head repeatedly, saying:

"Mr. Luo is joking. Biological alchemy is not something that my kind of alchemy can master."

I just need some small animals to cooperate with in testing the effects of alchemical items on them.

Luo Tian looked disappointed and sighed.

"That's a pity, I thought..."

He stopped mid-sentence and did not continue speaking.

Luo Tian's performance immediately piqued Shutak's curiosity.

After arriving in this unfamiliar world, Shutak could sense that this world was not like his own, where alchemy was the only extraordinary path.

In this world, alchemy is a minor art, and even bio-alchemy is not something precious. He was only hiding it out of a cautious instinct.

After all, what he did was not well-liked.

Driven by his curiosity, Shutak asked Luo Tian:

"Mr. Luo, please feel free to speak your mind. Although I am not very capable, I can still help with some small things within my power."

Luo Tian sighed and shook his head:

"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that Sir Kevin recently acquired a mutated fire lion, but due to the bloodline problem of the mutated fire lion, this extraordinary beast has very low intelligence and is very difficult to tame."

Sir Cohen consulted several alchemists and animal trainers, but none of them could solve the problem, so he publicly sought someone who could.

After a slight pause, Luo Tian turned to Xiutak with a look of regret and said:

"Sir Cowen is the most prestigious hereditary nobleman in the entire Ming City, and the Cowen family behind him has a profound heritage."

If he could help Sir Kevin, he could decide with a word whether it was any extraordinary treasure or a powerful position in Ming City.

"I'm so desperate to escape the Otherworld Management Committee that I'm grasping at straws, trying to get anyone I meet to give it a shot..."

As Luo Tian made up the story, he kept an eye on the changes in Xiutak's expression.

Upon hearing of Sir Cowen's immense power, Shutak's face clearly showed interest, and a greedy desire began to spread within him.

He is a man who will stop at nothing to gain profit; otherwise, he wouldn't have used his wife and children as materials for a chimera.

He might not be confident in dealing with the problem of the mutated fire lion's intelligence, but his experience in synthesizing chimeras had given him some insights.

Since the intelligence is too low, why not give human intelligence to the mutated fire lion to make up for its lack of intelligence?

Even if he didn't succeed, he believed that as long as he demonstrated his talent, he could get on Sir Cowen's good side and take the opportunity to soar to great heights.

But... the current problem is whether it's worth exposing oneself for this one opportunity, and whether Sir Cohen can accept chimeras.

Seeing the inner turmoil in Shutak's heart, Luo Tian added fuel to the fire of his restless desire.

As if unintentionally, Luo Tian casually said:

"Actually, if it were just a simple mutated fire lion, it wouldn't be so difficult for so many beast tamers and alchemists. The real problem is that Sir Kevin needs someone who can break through the existing system of extraordinary creatures."

I've heard that the Ke family's ancestor is nearing the end of his life. This matter is said to be related to the Ke family ancestor's breakthrough to the fourth realm and becoming a Saint. If it could be…”

Before Luo Tian could finish speaking, Shutak approached him with a shocked expression. His eyes, which had been narrowed to slits, widened, revealing bloodshot veins that drove people mad. His tone was filled with a chilling fervor.

“Mr. Law, I can help Sir Cohen solve this problem!”

Luo Tian looked puzzled and asked, "Huh? Don't you not know bio-alchemy?"

Shutak smiled, straightened his work clothes, and said in a low voice:

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it before."

"My name is Xiu Tar, and I was once known as the Alchemist of Fate. I was the first alchemist in my world to complete the technology of human and biological transmutation."

I am confident that I can resolve Sir Cohen's troubles.

"you?"

Luo Tian made no attempt to hide his suspicion, and his eyes held a hint of disdain.

"I believe you when you say you can biotransform, but it's a bit unbelievable that you say you're the first alchemist to achieve biotransformation from a human body."

"If you truly possessed such abilities, you would have been treated like royalty by other supernatural departments long ago. Why would you have come to this remote little place of mine?"

Shutak grew anxious, his expression twisted slightly, and he hurriedly defended himself:

“Mr. Luo! What I said is absolutely true. It’s just that the materials we refined that time were a bit embarrassing to talk about, so I didn’t reveal my identity right away.”

Luo Tian's expression began to change, and he asked in a low voice:

"Materials? What materials?"

"I...I..."

Shutak was sweating profusely and didn't know how to start the conversation, while Luo Tian had already stood up from behind his desk, looking ready to leave at any moment.

Shutak gritted his teeth:

"The first materials I used were my wife and daughter!"

To Shutak's surprise, Luo Tian did not immediately cast a disdainful or disgusted glance at him. His calm eyes remained expressionless, though his voice carried a hint of doubt.

"Using your wife and daughter? That does have a bit of a crazy alchemy vibe, but why would you choose them?"

Upon mentioning his masterpiece, and without showing any obvious disgust, Shutak suddenly broke into a smile, his eagerness transforming into a suppressed frenzy:

"I chose them because I know them best. To create groundbreaking works, I must understand my materials well enough to carefully extract every possible surprise."

Only in this way can such a perfect work be created.

Only then can everyone know that I, Shutak, am the strongest, that I have surpassed... genius!

The moment the words were spoken, an ancient voice resounded throughout the entire guesthouse.

"withered!"

Like a curse that erodes the soul, a feeling of weakness from the depths of his soul erupted instantly and spread throughout Shutak's entire body.

Every cell in his body seemed to wail under the power of this curse, fear and unease engulfing everything.

He looked in shock behind the desk at the indifferent figure, behind whom seemed to be an ancient deity holding a scepter and scales.

His lips parted, and cold words escaped from Luo Tian's mouth.

"Life is part of the cycle of reincarnation, and your part has already ended!"

Chapter Twenty-Three: Experience +6!

Shutak collapsed to the ground, the withered soul curse frantically eroding everything in his body.

His soul power, life force, and even his alchemy skills plummeted to rock bottom, and now he was almost no better than an ordinary person.

His once golden hair gradually turned gray, the brilliance in his manic eyes began to dim, and his robust body withered away rapidly like a shattered pyre, making him look like a human-skinned monster wrapped in bones.

Even so, Shutak could clearly sense that this terrifying fall showed no signs of slowing down.

He couldn't imagine where this fall would end; weakness and the fear of the unknown almost completely overwhelmed him.

He struggled to look at Luo Tian, ​​a hoarse roar escaping from his dry mouth:

"You, you're not! How could someone like you possibly stay in such a small place!"

Luo Tian remained silent, his expression indifferent, like a deity descended to earth.

He stepped out from behind his desk and stood in front of Shutak, who was slumped on the floor.

"Shutak, do you know what in this world is more terrifying than death?"

Luo Tian spoke, his tone very soft, as if he were talking to a close friend.

However, Shutak sensed immense terror from those words.

He clearly remembered that the name he registered with the Interdimensional Management Committee was Xiu Tal, and his real name, Xiu Tal, should only be known by people from his original world.

This proves that Luo Tian's understanding of him far exceeded his imagination.

At this moment, he realized that what Luo Tian had said earlier about Sir Kevin's bounty and the imminent death of the Kevin family patriarch was probably false.

From the moment he entered the guesthouse, he became Luo Tian's target.

Shutak trembled all over, tears streaming down his aged face, as he pleaded desperately with Luo Tian:

"Mr. Luo, I don't know what I did to offend you, but please give me a chance!"

"Since you know my name, you must also know about the world I live in. I'll tell you, I'll tell you I know a huge secret!"

In the world I live in, a shocking secret lies hidden behind the scenes...

"A little man in a bottle, right?"

Luo Tian delivered the answer in a calm voice, the answer that Shutak had clung to as a lifeline.

Shutak went completely insane. He opened his bloodshot eyes and questioned Luo Tian.

"Who are you? How do you know all this? Why did you come looking for me?"

His voice was urgent, and his large eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

Fueled by fear, the doubts in his heart were almost overflowing.

"Are you craving something from me? Or is it simply because I sacrificed my wife and daughter, which doesn't conform to your so-called moral values?"

"Say something! Say something!"

Looking at Shutak's frenzied appearance, especially his bulging eyes, Luo Tian was almost reminded of a certain marshal.

"It's really ugly!"

As he said this, Luo Tian casually picked up the broken pen from the table and placed it on top of Shutak.

The hand loosened, and the falling pen seemed to carry an invisible force, transforming into a spear that easily pierced the ugly right eye. The gushing blood, accompanied by a shrill wail, echoed throughout the entire guesthouse.

The gatekeeper, Old Qin, seemed to have heard something. He picked at his ear in confusion, but when he listened again, he seemed to hear nothing at all.

"I'm getting old!"

Grandpa Qin shook his head and continued to sit lazily in front of the security room, basking in the sun.
