Chapter 1811: Beyond Insane



Chapter 1811: Beyond Insane

“That’s right, meridians! The meridians are very similar to those in the human body, and they emulated through bionics. The source positive circulation cores are like parts of our bodies, or even cells, and they’re all firmly connected to these meridians. It was such a wonderful sight; I have no idea what kind of genius could’ve come up with something like this! At the time, I was truly overcome with emotion, and I finally understood what I had been pursuing all this time. Thus, I began my experiments, trying to connect cores through meridians.

“Sure enough, I succeeded, and I finally found an opening for a breakthrough on a bottleneck that’s been stumping me for so long.”

Her eyes were filled with excitement as she spoke, and even though she was only an ordinary person, all of the Titled Douluos of the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy present were struck by a sense of fear in her presence.

Ling Zichen’s persistence in soul technology research was far beyond even their persistence in cultivation! Just how insane was this woman? Having said that, they had to admit that it was precisely her insanity that had made her become such a brilliant scientist.

Ling Zichen paid no heed to everyone’s expressions; she was currently completely immersed in a world of her own.

“After several successful experiments, I developed a bold idea, one that sounded a little mad even to me. Firstly, I set up a hypothesis, which was that Eternal Heaven is actually an unfinished product rather than the final product that the scientists from that era had actually intended to create. In other words, they only completed a portion of the envisioned final product.”

Eternal Heaven was an unfinished product? Everyone was completely bewildered to hear this.

Ling Zichen continued, “Through this experiment, I was able to confirm my hypothesis. The reason I say it’s an unfinished product is also because of the meridians. The source positive circulation cores inside Eternal Heaven were organized exactly according to the meridians in a human body, but its shell does match its interior. Of course, it’s just a soul missile, but in my eyes, the shell is far too ordinary considering its brilliant internal structure. Then, I saw a very small engraving on an internal corner of the shell, and the engraving read: ‘man-made warrior’!

“As soon as I saw those two words, I was struck by a sense of enlightenment because I clearly recalled a proposal made by a scientist many years ago. Soul Masters are powerful, but is there a way for ordinary people in this world to use soul energy? Is there a way to implant soul energy into an ordinary person’s body to make them just as powerful as Soul Masters? I am an ordinary person with a trash martial soul that can’t be cultivated, but I wanted to become powerful, so I’ve constantly been researching this topic.

“As you saw, I implanted my mecha into my own body and created energy stores for it through a series of independent source positive circulation cores, thereby making myself a superhuman warrior. Even though a mecha like this can’t be mass-produced, I felt like I had succeeded. However, after witnessing Eternal Heaven’s internal structure, I discovered that even though I was on the right path, I was still far, far away from the finishing line. Thus, I developed a bold idea: if I can replicate this system of meridians and implant a large number of source positive circulation cores into my own body to fuse with my mecha, I’ll be able to transform myself into Eternal Heaven!

“Wouldn’t I be a true super warrior then? I conducted some simulations and many experiments, and on a purely theoretical basis, this was viable. However, Eternal Heaven belongs to the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy, and it’s too important for me to experiment on. On top of that, the experiment I want to conduct is very dangerous, so it could be said that this was the opportunity I had been waiting for. Haha, they actually agreed for me to conduct my experiment; I’m so happy!”

Everyone exchanged bewildered glances upon hearing this.

Tang Wulin could still clearly recall everything that Ling Zichen had said in the main control center, and looking back now, it became clear to him that everything she had said had been for the sake of her research. Perhaps the consequences wouldn’t be as dire as she proclaimed, but there was only one Eternal Heaven, and it had to be used if she wanted to conduct her experiment.

The word “insane” wasn’t even doing her justice anymore…

Ling Zichen sighed, “If I had enough time, perhaps I would also be able to create a man-made meridian source positive circulation core, but there aren’t enough resources available to me. During the creation of Eternal Heaven, almost the entirety of the federation’s supply of uncommon metals had been used up to create so many source positive circulation cores. Our Tang Sect doesn’t have that much uncommon metals for me to work with, so this was my only opportunity, and I had to grasp it no matter what.”

Indeed, experimenting with Eternal Heaven really was her only opportunity, and it was the best opportunity for her to fulfill her dream.

Only now did Tang Wulin and the others finally understand her thought process. It was no wonder she had been so persistent on that day. Looking back now, the success rate was most likely not as high as she had proclaimed, even though she had succeeded in the end.

Ling Zichen continued, “However, my experiment was only a half-success. My direction and method were both correct, and I really did manage to fuse Eternal Heaven with my mecha and implant it into my body. I was extremely excited, and I told you that I had succeeded, but in reality, I could see that there was room for development, and this is the future for humanity, so you must remember it well. Super warriors really can be created. In the future, if we want to explore outer space, then we need to become more powerful, and super warriors will be a compulsory area of research.

“Only by creating super warriors will we have more powerful beings to face formidable enemies. Take these abyssal creatures for example; we’re no match for them as we don’t have sufficient high-end power. How many Titled Douluos do we have? Compare that with the number of powerful beings of the same caliber in the abyssal plane. Only in the instant that I fired the Eternal Heaven cannon did I truly understand what my problem was. I hate to admit it, but it’s the truth: my body is too fragile.

“Even with the extensive genetic modification I’ve undergone to strengthen my own body, I still only possess the body of an ordinary human. I was able to successfully turn myself into a super weapon, but my body is unable to withstand the side-effects. If, for example, I had implanted Eternal Heaven into Wuiln’s body instead, then he would be able to easily bear the side-effects, and Eternal Heaven would be a weapon that he could use with minimal consequences. However, for me, using this weapon is lethal. I only fired it once, and I was already convinced that I was done for.”

“If Wulin hadn’t been there to protect me, I would’ve most likely already been erased out of existence, and even then, the Holy Spirit Douluo had to save my life. Hence, as soon as I woke up, the first thing I realized was that it really is impossible for humans to become top-tier powerful beings. The subjects of super warrior modification can only be Soul Masters, and the future for humanity is to fuse source positive circulation cores with Soul Masters, making use of Soul Masters’ physical advantages to handle more powerful weapons.

“This is a path that the human race must take for space exploration and to gather more resources in the future.”
