Chapter 126: The Mystery of the Golden Pill
In the laboratory, in the pool of blood.
As if a gust of wind was blowing, the blood pool set off bursts of ripples, and countless blood Gu were constantly wriggling on the surface of the pool, devouring all kinds of nutrients to give birth to flesh and blood.
In the center of the blood pool, there is a verdant spirit leaf floating, and above the spirit leaf, there is a golden pill suspended between the virtual and the real.
Although he had obtained a complete golden pill, Lin Chen had discovered a very critical problem, with his current ability, there was no way to disassemble it and study it.
He originally wanted to directly extract the Jindan Origin from it, but he still couldn't.
Lin Chen also tried to remove the spirit leaf used to preserve the golden pill with the method given by the Evergreen Zhenren.
But after it was removed, Jin Dan immediately collapsed, and even formed a storm of spiritual energy, overloading his laboratory formation and almost collapsing.
If he hadn't reacted in time, and when he saw that something was wrong, he immediately used his back hand to reseal it, I don't know what would have happened.
In desperation, Lin Chen could only try to use the indirect observation method, react with Jin Dan with other things, collect data, and establish a model to speculate on the mystery inside, and then verify it.
And when Jin Dan reacted with other spiritual creatures, Lin Chen unexpectedly found that the data and phenomena provided by the reflection of the blood pool seemed to be the most valuable for research.
For example, at this moment, in the blood pool, the golden pill above the spirit leaf was exuding a faint light.
Even though it has been preserved by special means, it has only greatly delayed its existence, and it itself is still constantly collapsing.
And the aura that came out of the collapse, after the downgrade spread, continued to merge into the blood pool below.
The blood Gu, flesh and blood in the blood pool, after receiving these aura, constantly underwent mutations, forming various organs.
Heart, lungs, liver, brain...... And, tail!
Lin Chen dissected and studied these organs, collected the corresponding data, established a model, and then compared the basic racial template he summarized by dissecting various species over the years.
Then he was a little surprised to find that the source of these organs seemed to be similar to a very common demon beast in the Lingnan Immortal Cultivation Land.
The name of this demon beast is called [Tongji Demon Ape].
This is a monkey demon beast, living in a group, fierce and cunning by nature, and is one of the main threatening groups around the major immortal cities under the command of Qingyun Sect.
Among them, there are even more talented people, who can learn the monk's body refining exercises, practice a vajra incorruptible body, plus racial talent, in the same level, it can be called a unique combat power.
As far as Lin Chen knew, thirty years ago, Qingyang Zhenren launched an expedition and killed a demon beast in the Hengduan Mountain Range in the northeast of the Lingnan Immortal Cultivation Realm in one fell swoop, which was the Tongtian Demon Ape.
And the golden pill in Lin Chen's hand also came from this demon beast.
At this moment, the aura that overflowed from the golden pill, after being integrated into the blood pool, under the influence of mutual entanglement, actually derived the corresponding organs of the demon beast.
Originally, Lin Chen thought that the monk was just carving consciousness into the aura, but now it seems that there is more than that.
Not only does the monk incorporate his own consciousness into the aura, but he also seems to write into it all the information related to his own physical race.
So even if you are promoted to a high level, you are called the two clans of shemales, and they are not collectively called the aura clan, is this reason?
When a monk is in harmony with the aura, he will also write all the information of his own body, so as to anchor his identity, instead of becoming a wisp of unchanging aura?
"This feeling is a bit similar to the cells of the previous life. Reiki is a stem cell, which has various evolutionary directions, and the information injected by the monk is equivalent to the inherited genes, so as to ensure its normal development and not disorder like cancer cells......"
"So if the origin of Jindan is equivalent to stem cells, Jindan is equivalent to embryos?"
"The foundation building period is divided into [Condensation], [Refining], and [Purple Mansion], in these three processes, is it to engrave the information represented by the monk's essence and spirit into the aura, and then integrate these three types of information to form an aura embryo with the information of the monk's self, that is, the golden pill?"
"With this aura embryo with its own information, it will develop into an aura creature normally, and will not become a strange evil thing."
"So this is also the reason why Brother Jindan was able to [take away]? Because Jin Dan recorded the information of their original bodies, even if they changed their bodies, they could also use the aura to affect the bodies that were taken away, so as to meet their own requirements. ”
"This process is equivalent to injecting the genes of one organism into the stem cells of another organism in a previous life?"
Lin Chen stroked his chin thoughtfully.
And Lin Chen also saw in the classics that the Jindan monk could mobilize the power of heaven and earth, and its power was not comparable to that of the foundation building monk in refining qi at all.
And the power of heaven and earth in this world, in the final analysis, is aura.
Although Qi refining and foundation building can also mobilize spiritual energy, they only use the spiritual root to dye it with their own breath, so as to forcibly control it.
This process is equivalent to using a machine to manipulate the movement of an atom, which is time-consuming, laborious and difficult to control.
Brother Jindan is different. Their essence is already aura, and they are naturally handy at controlling other aura, such as arm-to-finger.
Just like a machine has to borrow various magnetic fields and electric fields to affect particles, but particles only need to collide and approach, the latter is far more convenient than the former, and it is far easier to control than the former.
Of course, these are Lin Chen's conjectures, but with conjectures, there will naturally be a direction, and with a direction, it will become an accurate conclusion after the experiment proves it.
"No wonder this world also has a saying similar to [swallowing a golden pill in the stomach, my life is up to me]."
"Because whether it is refining qi or building a foundation, they are essentially mortals, even if they have aura to nourish their bodies, they can only live to the limit of the human life span of this world, that is, more than two hundred years, and they cannot transcend."
"But after the achievement of Jindan, the essence is already aura, and what determines its lifespan is no longer the body, but the change in the activity of the aura in the body."
"As long as the activity does not drop to a certain level, and all the information stored in the aura of the monk flows out, then the monk can continue to exist."
Lin Chen picked up the pile of experimental data in his hand.
This was based on the data obtained from the analysis of the high-grade spirit stone he obtained from the storage ring given by the Evergreen real person.
According to his analysis and the establishment and deduction of the model, the time required for the energy level of the upper grade spirit stone to decline and the activity to decrease is about ...... A thousand years or so.
And the lifespan of the Jindan monk is about 800 years.
"Change the key to determining one's own lifespan from cells to aura, so as to achieve the so-called immortality?"
Lin Chen couldn't help but think of some of the forbidden experiments that some mad scientists in his previous life had done for immortality.
Take out the human brain, create the corresponding neural perception device, and replace the flesh and blood with a machine, so as to pursue immortality in a certain sense.
However, the machine itself also has a service life, and through continuous replacement, it only lives longer than flesh and blood, but whether it can withstand the test of tens of millions of years, no one knows.
And what is the difference between changing the key to determining one's own lifespan from flesh and blood to a machine, and the monk's change of the key to determining one's own lifespan from cells to aura?
"No matter how it changes, it can only be flesh and blood, and it has to be mechanical, aura, particles, or energy to soar?" Lin Chen's eyelids drooped slightly.
He couldn't think of any other way for this, because even the so-called blood-dripping rebirth and Vajra's incorruptible physical body was essentially the property of using spiritual energy to transform all things.
And the cells in previous lives are the same, no matter how they change, don't they all need all kinds of substances, don't they all need stars to provide energy?
Unless you fall into a deep slumber like a jellyfish worm, you simply do not have the conditions to survive without relying on external objects.
"Ugh." Lin Chen sighed lightly, but still put down this idea.
"Now that I know the direction of my next research, I probably know how to go."
