Chapter 1789: Tang Wulin’s Blood
“Alright, how much do you want?” Tang Wulin asked.
Ling Zichen replied, “Not much, just 10 drops will be enough.”
“Do you want it now?”
“Yes!”
It wasn’t easy to extract blood from Tang Wulin in his current form. His body was almost as powerful as A’Ruheng’s Invincible Vajra Body, and unless a divine weapon was used, it would be virtually impossible to leave so much as a single scratch on him, particularly when he was always using his Golden Dragon Body to further bolster his defense in battle.
10 minutes later, the tears in Ling Zichen’s eyes were gone, and she was examining some blood inside a test tube with an amazed expression.
Looking at the intense interest in her eyes, Tang Wulin was left feeling rather speechless. Weren’t her emotions fluctuating a little too quickly?
The blood had been extracted from his hand through a small gash inflicted by the Golden Dragon Spear, and it was very much different from the blood of a normal person.
The blood was of a reddish-golden color and seemed to possess life force of its own. It was constantly writing and twisting inside the test tube, looking more like a solid than a liquid.
Even for Tang Wulin, this was the first time he was seeing his own blood, and he could vaguely sense the Golden Dragon King aura imbued within the blood.
It was no wonder that Ling Zichen was so excited; this was the first time she had seen blood that was capable of moving on its own. Furthermore, she had certain ulterior motives.
She took a furtive glance at Tang Wulin to find that he was appraising her with a perplexed expression, and she hurriedly shifted her gaze elsewhere as a warm smile appeared on her face.
Tang Wulin couldn’t help but shudder at the sight of her benevolent smile. For some reason, he couldn’t shake the feeling that something wasn’t quite right.
“What kind of research do you want to do with my blood?” Tang Wulin asked.
Ling Zichen immediately put on a serious expression, and replied, “I want to research its genetic makeup, of course. If we can develop some genetic medicines capable of enhancing one’s powers using your blood, then our Tang Sect will be able to make money even faster than the Spirit Pagoda!”
Tang Wulin was left feeling rather speechless upon hearing this, and before he could ask any further questions, Ling Zichen said, “Wait for me here; I’ll go get Eternal Heaven.”
Thus, Ling Zichen made her way to the research institute in Shrek Academy on her own.
This research center had been founded by her, and following some discussion with Shrek Academy, Ling Zichen intended to add a new technological subject to Shrek Academy’s curriculum.
During the past 20,000 years, Shrek Academy’s education had been rather lacking in diversity, mainly focusing on subjects related to Soul Masters, and during a certain period, subjects related to Soul Engineers were also offered. However, with the invention and popularisation of battle armor, these Soul Engineer subjects were gradually made redundant.
Ling Zichen suggested that aside from nurturing Soul Masters, Shrek Academy had to develop talented individuals in all fields. If Shrek Academy could cultivate a more diverse range of talent, then their alumni would take up posts in all fields all over the continent, and the chances of a tragedy like the Shrek City bombing being repeated would be significantly lower.
Following a discussion held during a Sea God’s Pavilion meeting, Shrek Academy decided to take Ling Zichen’s suggestion onboard.
During the next enrolment period, Shrek Academy was going to broaden its student intake to include those with lackluster Soul Master aptitude, but made up for it with intelligence.
This was the basis upon which Ling Zichen’s research institute was founded, and it was owned by both the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy, thereby allowing it to draw upon resources from both organizations. Of course, Ling Zichen was the one in charge of the research institute.
The institute was situated deep underground and was connected with the sanctuary beneath the Sea God’s Lake.
As a perfectionist, Ling Zichen had ensured that the research institute was built to withstand attacks on par with the power of Eternal Heaven, and even though it had cost an enormous amount of money to make her vision a reality, this was definitely the most impregnable research institute in the entire federation.
After passing through a few metal doors, Ling Zichen rode an exclusive elevator downward. After over 10 minutes and two elevator changes, she finally arrived in a massive underground laboratory.
If Tang Wulin had followed her to this place, he would’ve definitely been astonished by what he saw.
This laboratory belonged exclusively to Ling Zichen, and currently, it was a complete mess with uncommon metals and different parts strewn all over the place.
Atop a giant bench at the center of the laboratory sat a silver soul missile, which was slightly smaller than the average soul missile.
Its silver shell was very streamlined, and the front third of it was translucent with a light source glowing inside it.
The light 1,080 source positive circulation cores in the missile, and that was the source of the missile’s power.
The rear half of the missile had been opened up, and some extremely intricate and tiny parts could be seen within.
Ling Zichen’s lips twitched slightly as she murmured to herself, “I wonder how he’d react if he finds out I’m taking Eternal Heaven apart. They all thought I was fortifying the lab to defend against external attacks, but it’s actually because I’m afraid this thing might explode! Well, it looks like it won’t have a chance to explode here anymore. Now then, let me see if I can remember how to reassemble this thing…”
Tang Wulin had always known that Ling Zichen was insane, but this degree of insanity would most likely bring even him to his knees…
Over an hour later, Ling Zichen finally completed the reassembly of the missile, and a triumphant smile appeared on her face. “All done! Am I impressive or what? If I had enough resources, perhaps I really would be able to create another Eternal Heaven.”
She carefully stowed the missile into her storage soul tool as she spoke, and only then did she heave a sigh of relief.
“He must be growing impatient, but I have to make him wait a little longer. Hehehhe, I bet he has no idea what I’m going to do with his blood. Hahaha, if I succeed with the experiment, I’ll be striking gold!”
She made her way over to one side of the laboratory as she spoke, then pressed a very well concealed button, upon which a metal door instantly opened to reveal an independent space.
In contrast with the messy laboratory, this independent room was very pristine and orderly. It was only around a third the size of the laboratory outside, but all types of intricate devices were being stored within it.
At the very center of the room was a huge vat that seemed to have been constructed from glass. The vat was full of transparent liquid and all types of tubes, and within the liquid was a person.
This wasn’t any particular person. In fact, it didn’t even have any facial features and was completely lifeless.
Ling Zichen chuckled to herself, “I wonder what a clone of Tang Wulin will be like. Once I successfully create one, I’ll be able to abuse it as I please, hehehehe.”
……
Tang Wulin really was growing rather impatient. It had been two hours since Ling Zichen’s departure, and if she had gone anywhere else, he would’ve already gone to find her. However, the defenses of the laboratory were so formidable that even with his power, it would take him a long time to force his way in. As such, all he could do was wait.
Finally, the elevator door opened, and Ling Zichen emerged from within.
