Chapter 34: Human Experimentation

From this day onwards, Cloud Leopard also began to basically live in the Origin Energy Tower.

Shi Kaihuang was actually quite a generous old man. After all, he pursued the dream of the human race’s rise to prominence, and did not have any selfish thoughts when it came to cultivation. Thus, although he didn’t accept Cloud Leopard as his disciple, he did not object to Cloud Leopard coming to live in the Origin Energy Tower or studying here.

Without a status as a disciple, Shi Kaihuang wouldn’t specifically teach him the Origin Talisman Energy Formation. After all, it was a tool used to analyze Origin Energy Talisman combinations. On the other hand, Cloud Leopard was permitted to learn any contemporary Origin Skill. This was the difference between giving a person a fish and teaching a person how to fish. Su Chen was a disciple, so he was taught how to fish. Cloud Leopard was a guest, so he wasn’t taught how to fish, but he could eat as much fish as he wanted to.

This was Shi Kaihuang’s temperament. Any other instructor would consider this to be putting the cart before the horse. Why would you not teach your own disciples any Origin Skills, but allow those who aren’t even your disciples to freely learn said skills?

Both Su Chen and Shi Kaihuang viewed this as entirely par for the course. If they didn’t have a heart that encompassed the heavens, how could they achieve an unlimited future for mankind?

Cloud Leopard had basically been dropped into a sea of good fortune, and Su Chen was very happy for him.

To Su Chen, Origin Tool ingredients and other materials were not important. Any materialistic profit he stood to make could be replaced, but there was no substitute for knowledge, which was infinite.

Then where did knowledge come from?

Naturally, it was from performing countless experiments and practice.

Five members of pure Bloodline Nobility Clans were essentially five extremely rare and precious specimens. After bringing them back with him, Su Chen began to contemplate how to best use and allocate them in order to maximize their value.

His first goal was to test out his most recent theories about Kaihuang’s Heaven.

Shi Kaihuang’s understanding of Origin Energy Talismans and their effects on the human body was very deep, but he had his own limitations.

Most importantly, he was already in the Light Shaking Realm, but he was developing a bloodline-less method for Qi Drawing Realm cultivators to reach the Blood Boiling Realm.

He wasn’t in the Qi Drawing Realm anymore, so it was hard for him to apply his research to himself. Without special eyes that could see Origin Energy, he could only use the Origin Talisman Energy Formation to make calculations, making it incredibly difficult to avoid deficiencies.

With these five people and Su Chen’s eyes that could see Origin Energy, Su Chen could save both himself and Shi Kaihuang a lot of effort. Su Chen’s calculations would definitely speed up a lot.

His goal was to analyze these five peoples’ bloodlines to see if he could study them and utilize them, just like when he was attempting to study and extract the Bloodline Origin Energy Substance of the Soaring Snake Bloodline.

Kaihuang’s Heaven was a technique that allowed one to break through in cultivation layer without a bloodline. However, just a cultivation breakthrough alone was not enough. One also needs to have an appropriate set of Origin Skills.

If Kaihuang’s Heaven was like a trunk, then bloodline-less Origin Skills were the branches and leaves.

Without a trunk, the branches and leaves wouldn’t exist.

He was also using this opportunity to practice his alchemy and investigate different kinds of medicine, raising his own skill in concocting medicine. He could also analyze a few new medicines such as the Bloodline Ancestral Medicine.

If Shi Kaihuang knew about his train of thought, he would definitely rebuke him for being absurd.

If he was trying to go down the path of terminating bloodlines, then he should focus on that. Why try to research the Bloodline Ancestral Medicine?

Wasn’t that the same thing as fighting against himself?

But Su Chen didn’t think that way.

Whether he did it with a bloodline or not, they were in essence both different methods of utilizing Origin Energy.

Su Chen pursued bloodline-less cultivation in order to give every human an opportunity to cultivate so that the human race would have a stronger foundation. They would have more power to combat the Beast Race. His goal was never merely to eliminate those with bloodlines.

Everything existed for a reason. If certain sources of power could be used, it was unwise to give up on them so easily.

Su Chen used this kind of thinking to divide his five experimental subjects and then began experimenting on them.

Every day, he would first draw three vials of blood from each person and then mix in different ingredients or medicines and observe the reaction. This was his secret to researching the Origin Substances of various bloodlines. If he didn’t have enough blood, he would simply draw more.

Next, he began to form Origin Energy Talismans according to the Origin Energy conduction needs of Kaihuang’s Heaven and inserting them into his subjects’ bodies. He would then order them to revolve their Origin Energy and observe the ensuing changes.

He was combining theory with practice.

The Origin Talisman Energy Formation was just theory. Only when it was tested experimentally could it be considered complete.
