Chapter 612: Chapter 611: A Text Message
One week later.
Inside the Yunwu Mountain laboratory.
An ancient-looking reactor quietly sat upon the Array Eye of the Spirit Gathering Array. Around the reactor, inscribed with runes, a jade token was placed according to the positions of the Big Dipper.
The spiritual energy in the room was originally very dense, and with the enhancement of this small array, the spiritual energy around the reactor formed a thick fog, rich with power elements of heaven and earth, swirling around the reactor like misty rain.
Below the reactor, a flame device was emitting a large amount of blue flames. These blue flames were guided by the small array to revolve uniformly around the reactor, turning spiritual power into high-quality fuel, continuously intensifying the combustion of the flames, ensuring the reactor was heated evenly.
In this secret room, Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang were sitting quietly on the side, practicing cultivation. Besides them, Hu Lizhong was walking around the reactor, constantly guiding nature’s spiritual energy into the seven talismans to maintain the operation of the small formation.
This was a job that made Hu Lizhong feel both honored and quite vexed.
If this synthesis of Genetic Fluid was successful, his contribution would be significant. However, working here consumed a lot of True Yuan, and he had to continuously focus on the spiritual power of the seven talismans without freedom.
He would occasionally steal glances at Qin Yanyang and Yang Fei, who were engaged in Dual Cultivation, feeling quite unfair.
You two are really taking advantage of this great location to cultivate, while you’ve got me toiling away as hard labor, unable to relax for even a moment. Too cruel.
But then he thought, ever since he met Yang Fei, he had stepped into the Innate Realm in just one short month. Moreover, helping to refine Genetic Fluid here was a great deed, and any trace of resentment in his heart disappeared without a trace.
A little hardship is fine.
Following this couple is definitely not the wrong choice.
An hour later, Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang stopped their cultivation and opened their eyes simultaneously.
Qin Yanyang, feeling his intention, woke up as soon as he ceased Dual Cultivation. She looked at Yang Fei with a bit of excitement and asked, "Is it time yet?"
Yang Fei nodded, "Mm, it should be about time."
At this point, Hu Lizhong was drenched in sweat. Hearing Yang Fei say it was almost time, he sighed with relief and asked, "Brother Yang, how much longer? My True Qi is nearly depleted. If you hadn’t opened your eyes, I would’ve had to wake you to take over my job."
"Just hold on a bit longer," Yang Fei said, looking at the reactor.
He was very sensitive to medicine and could already smell the unique scent indicating the Genetic Fluid was about to synthesize.
In less than a minute, an intoxicatingly rich fragrance suddenly filled the air.
Yang Fei quickly said, "Stop."
Hu Lizhong immediately ceased his actions.
The seven floating talismans fell onto the pre-arranged sponge pads on the floor.
"Did it work?" Qin Yanyang, smelling the dense fragrance mixed with a faint medicinal scent, asked with great anticipation.
Hu Lizhong, wiping the sweat from his forehead, looked at Yang Fei just as excitedly.
"It should have."
Yang Fei nodded.
He wasn’t certain, however.
After all, this was the first batch of Genetic Fluid produced, and whether it could achieve the desired effect was still unknown.
Approaching the reactor, he reached out to touch it with his bare hands. Qin Yanyang warned, "Be careful, it’s very hot."
Yang Fei said, "No worries."
With Hu Lizhong watching in shock, Yang Fei disassembled the several locks on the reactor with his bare hands.
Hum!
There was still a lot of pressure inside the reactor, and when the latches were opened, the lid was sent flying off.
Yang Fei, on his guard, reacted swiftly and caught it, preventing it from crashing through the roof.
A rich fragrance spread out.
Qin Yanyang and Hu Lizhong immediately went over to look, only to see that the reactor, which could hold a cubic liquid, now contained less than one-twentieth of a deep blue liquid.
"How has it reduced so much?" Hu Lizhong couldn’t help but say, his face showing distress.
Qin Yanyang also felt a twinge of pain.
After all, at the start, they had filled the reactor to the brim with medicinal liquid, but now, the finished product was just this little bit.
It was too drastic a concentration.
Yang Fei took out a small amount of the medicinal liquid with a container, observed it for a while, and laughed, "It’s a success. The power of this Spirit Gathering Array is not bad, and the result is better than I expected."
Qin Yanyang was overjoyed: "It really worked?"
Yang Fei handed the deep blue liquid to her and said, "You can try it. For your current Foundation Establishment Stage, this thing is beneficial. You may consume it freely."
Qin Yanyang, not being prudish, took it and drank the medicine liquid in one gulp.
The medicine tasted sweet, and Qin Yanyang could clearly feel the strong efficacy unfolding within her body, nourishing her muscles, bones, and flesh.
"Such a rich Spiritual Power. Taking this one gulp feels like it’s worth more than ten days of cultivation," Qin Yanyang exclaimed in surprise.
"Hehe, this is just the beginning. You underestimate the efficacy of this Genetic Liquid Medicine. Although it’s not as powerful as the Elixir I synthesized last time, its effect can reach two to three percent of it. It has a great transformative effect on various human bodily functions. Ordinary people can strengthen themselves, and depending on their constitution, some might experience genetic changes after absorption. Martial Artists who absorb it well can Wash Essence and Cut Marrow, directly break through their current Realm, and achieve significant advancement," Yang Fei said with full confidence.
"Oh, is it really that powerful?" Qin Yanyang asked with joy. "Then, could I also improve my Realm?"
Yang Fei coughed lightly, somewhat embarrassed, "With your current high Realm, it would naturally be difficult to advance to the next higher Realm, but indeed, this thing will help with your Foundation Establishment."
Qin Yanyang nodded, "Well, just being able to complete my Foundation Establishment quicker is quite remarkable. But our purpose in synthesizing Genetic Fluid isn’t solely for ourselves, it’s to transform the constitution of all Martial Artists on a large scale."
"Right, that’s the key. Now, these products are enough for a hundred people to conduct experiments. You can arrange it and see how the experiments go," Yang Fei said.
Qin Yanyang complied, went out, and called Peng Ling in, instructing her to proceed with the plan.
After Peng Ling left, Hu Lizhong, looking at those deep blue bottles of Genetic Liquid Medicine, couldn’t help but swallow his saliva, then turned his gaze toward Yang Fei.
Seeing what he was thinking, Yang Fei laughed, "You can try it as well."
Hu Lizhong was overjoyed.
Brother Yang really treats me well.
He hurriedly looked at Qin Yanyang, somewhat embarrassedly said, "Minister Qin, I—"
"Though these are national resources, you have indeed worked hard these past few days, so you are permitted to take one spoonful," Qin said.
"Thank you, Minister Qin, thank you Brother Yang," said Hu Lizhong. He then scooped up a spoonful and put it into his mouth.
Although he had entered the Innate Realm, his foundation was still far too weak compared to established Innate Realm practitioners. He hoped to change his constitution by consuming a large amount of Genetic Liquid Medicine and even looked forward to the possibility that, after a certain level of consumption, his Cultivation talent would improve.
...
Binhai University’s biology laboratory received news of the successful synthesis of the first batch of Genetic Liquid Medicine. Simultaneously, some of the Genetic Liquid Medicine would be sent to the laboratory with utmost speed for comprehensive analysis and testing.
After work, Kong Yuren stepped out of the laboratory. Alone, he had a complicated expression on his face and thought for a long time. Finally, he sent out a text message.
