The deepest underground of the laboratory building of Tiannan University.

Three o'clock in the morning.

It's gloomy here.

Jiang Chen and a group of experts from Yanjing stood by a two-hundred-square-meter pool.

The pool was split into two parts from the middle, filled with pungent formalin.

In the pool on one side, there were bodies donated from the hospital, and the pale bodies were shaking in the formalin solution in the dazzling light, looking a little scary.

However, this time the people who came here were all biochemical experts and medical doctors, and there were too many corpses, and this situation had no effect on them.

On the contrary, it was the situation in the pool on the other side, grabbing their eyeballs tightly.

The pool on the other side is also filled with solution.

There is a two-meter-tall statue inside, which looks like a stone sculpture at a glance, but when you look closely, the stone material is slowly turning into flesh.

One side of the statue was petrified, but the other side had mutated, and some of the skin on it was bleeding.

The face of the statue looks like a demon like a demon, and when he looks at it, he is just a middle-aged man with kind eyebrows.

But if you look closely, there is a kind of magic that attracts people's hearts, extremely weird, and has an eerie horror.

Moreover, the corners of the statue's mouth were already red, as if it had drunk blood.

Jiang Chen's pupils shrank, and he quietly released a trace of divine sense to check, and his heart was slightly shocked.

The statue in the pool turned out to be a person who was petrified by magic.

However, to be precise, the petrified can't be called a human, it should be a demon beast.

This is a leopard spirit cultivated in human form, with a very high Taoism and a Dan core.

However, the meridians of this demon beast's whole body were sealed by a special technique, and it couldn't move a bit.

However, because this demon beast has been petrified for a long time, and it has not given up escaping, after being moved to this environment, it has been freed from the shackles of the original formation, so it has cast a soul devouring technique, in a vain attempt to replenish mana and open up the meridians.

If Jiang Chen didn't stop it, presumably a week later, this demon beast would completely escape its restraints and reborn.

Jiang Chen couldn't help but wonder what happened to this thing, being made like this.

"Professor Jiang, what do you think is going on?" A gray-haired professor asked cautiously when he saw that Jiang Chen did not speak, thinking that something was wrong.

Jiang Chen paused: "This statue is a petrified demon beast, and it is about to be born after the taboo is lifted, and someone was sucked dry before, just because of him!"

"Huh?"

A group of experts all exclaimed.

Monsters?

Isn't that something from myths and legends?

Could it be true?

But on second thought, too, since there is an organization like Tianlong, then these things also have the rationality of existence!

"Isn't this a biochemical mutation?" exclaimed a biochemist.

"No!" Jiang Chen said lightly.

A group of people suddenly lost their opinions, and they all cast their eyes on Jiang Chen.

"Professor Jiang, what should I do?"

"This matter should be handled by the Tianlong Clan!"

"Why don't you inform the people of Tianlong quickly?"

"My God, isn't it just drilling a mine, and the monsters are all out!"

A bunch of people chattered.

Hearing that they wanted to call Tianlong, Jiang Chen secretly screamed in his heart.

If the people of Tianlong came, then this humanoid demon beast would definitely be taken away by them, but he had taken a fancy to the Dan core of this demon beast, so no one could touch it.

"Now it's too late for the person called Tianlong, the demon beast may soon be freed from its shackles, and no one will be able to cure it then, and everyone here will have to be torn to pieces by him!"

Jiang Chen played a trick and deliberately praised the avenue.

A bunch of academicians and experts panicked.

If this thing escapes the ban and causes a lot of panic, it will be miserable.

"Professor Jiang, what do you say?

Jiang Chen glanced at it, in addition to Cai Chongsheng, there were three academicians and experts at the scene.

Zhai Xin, Zhang Youwei, Cai Yunjia, and some experts who had no authority did not follow.

Jiang Chen touched his nose: "There is a way, but everyone has to keep it a secret!"

Keeping it a secret?

Several experts looked at each other, not understanding what Jiang Chen was talking about.

"Because of this demon beast, many people have died, and the current news to the outside world is that it is a genetic infection, and only a few of us know about the statue, if we keep this secret, we can make a big deal small!"

"As long as I solve the matter of the statue, I believe that the above will not be overly investigated, as for the priority of the matter, I think you all know!"

Jiang Chen's words instantly woke up a group of old scholars.

They have been in scientific research institutions all their lives, and when they are about to retire, they are most afraid of being punished, and their bright identity for a lifetime will be ruined.

The best solution to this matter is what Jiang Chen said.

Let Jiang Chen eliminate this source, and they will be able to make a difference when they go back.

"Professor Jiang, just do as you say, please!" said one of the experts gratefully.

Several remaining experts chimed in.

"Okay, you go outside and wait first, don't let anyone else in, don't reveal anything about the statue, just say I'm studying inside!" Jiang Chen instructed.

Cai Chongsheng and the others agreed again and again, and hurriedly retreated.

Syllable!

The iron door to the basement closed with a loud roar.

Jiang Chen stood by the pool and stood with his hands in his hands: "You come out by yourself, or?"

After a few seconds, there was a dead silence.

A cold look flashed on Jiang Chen's face, his body moved, and he disappeared in place in an instant.

In the next second, he had appeared at the top of the pool and slammed it down.

A huge shock wave shook out.

Rumble!

The formalin pool exploded like explosives, and the water shot up into the sky.

Whoa!

The hardness on the petrified statue began to fall off, and the statue slowly opened its eyes, and a bright red light burst out.

"Was that you?"

A distant old voice came, echoing through the vast space.

Jiang Chen snorted coldly: "The Soul Devouring Technique devours the living through the air, except for an old poison like you, I'm afraid no one can do it, right?"

"Who are you, and what does it matter to you?" replied the old voice.

Jiang Chen sneered: "It doesn't matter who I am, it matters who you are, a demon beast can cultivate into a human form, and the Dan core can reach the top, I'm afraid the identity is not simple, right?"

Suddenly, there was a fluctuation of energy in the air.

There was a dead silence for a few seconds, and a shocked voice rang out: "You...... You're actually in the Jindan period?"

Jiang Chen sneered: "Nonsense, it's not the Jin Dan period, can you see your Dan core?"

"What do you want to do?" the beast's voice trembled and terrorist.

Jiang Chen sniffed: "Actually, if you hadn't been subjected to the soul locking technique, I wouldn't have been able to beat you, but who called me lucky!"

Rumble!

The water in the pool emits a huge shock wave, like a rising tide.

The statue that stood there suddenly arrived.

In an instant, all the petrified layers on its body fell off.

Whoa......

The water splashed, and the goods actually swam in the pool, trying to rush towards the door.

"Damn, it's bad!" Jiang Chen screamed and rushed over.
