Chapter 403: 256: Upgrade and Breath of Thunder
The dazzling red light flickered on the faces of the scientific researchers with a hint of horror and fear.
The human-shaped pattern on the screen,
Every part of the body was marked with flashing crimson exclamation points.
“Teacher, what should we do?”
Behind the white-robed old man, a middle-aged scientific researcher anxiously asked.
As time passed, Xiang Li’s body continued to deteriorate.
A large number of cells died from direct contact with radioactive substances.
The flow of blood inside the body noticeably slowed, and extensive necrosis occurred.
Even the gene sequence seemed to collapse.
Researchers worried that if this continued, Xiang Li’s body might suffer irreversible damage.
At that time,
Even with the present technology that could forcibly restore life, it would be impossible to return to his previous state.
However,
Faced with his student’s inquiry,
The old man in the white robe turned a deaf ear.
He withdrew his gaze from the screen and looked at the cylindrical container.
The old man’s expression was filled with internal struggle.
He could see Xiang Li’s physical condition without looking at the screen.
The original deep blue liquid had turned red from the blood mixed in.
Xiang Li’s skin began to peel off continuously, exposing the muscles and fascia underneath.
And these body tissues were also slowly shedding, floating in the solution.
The original clear liquid now looked incredibly murky.
Researchers could only operate the instrument continuously and use metallic tentacles to clear away the falling body tissues.
At this moment, Xiang Li’s body, which was once thousands of times harder than steel, seemed shattered.
His body was falling apart.
“Teacher!”
The middle-aged researcher didn’t get a reply from his teacher and anxiously called out again.
At the same time,
He reached out with his hand, ready to press the emergency button on the central instrument.
“No.”
“Don’t act yet.”
It wasn’t until this moment,
That the old man in the white robe stepped forward to stop his student.
He looked at the screen again.
Although the life signs were continuously weakening,
Xiang Li’s brain remained active the whole time.
He hadn’t given up.
Even now, he was still trying to continuously modify his body so that it could accept the nuclear cells injected into him.
“Wait… Wait a little longer.”
He took a step forward.
Standing in front of the deep blue container,
The lean old man appeared minuscule compared to the enormous container.
He slowly reached out his hand, touching at the glass cover of the container.
The old man’s eyes gradually became firmer.
There was still some margin before the situation became irreversible according to the current indicators.
He was very clear,
That if he called a halt to the plan at this time,
Xiang Li would probably begin the process all over again recklessly.
In that case,
The chances of success would only decrease further.
Therefore,
He decided to trust Xiang Li.
He believed that he could break through any difficult and dangerous situation, as he always had.
“Sect Master… Young Master.”
The old man’s address for Xiang Li unconsciously changed.
It seemed that their relationship was not a simple one.
“Power Sect still needs you.”
“So,”
“Please, don’t fail.”
The old man murmured.
Perhaps it was a coincidence,
Or maybe Xiang Li really heard the old man’s whisper.
Soon after the old man finished speaking,
Surprised shouts came from behind him.
“The Sect Master’s body indicators have stopped worsening!”
Swish!
Upon hearing this,
The old man immediately raised his head and looked inside the container.
Thump, thump, thump.
Even separated by the liquid and the glass cover,
The muffled sound of the heartbeat clearly echoed in the room.
The necrotic tissues on the surface of his body had all fallen off, exposing the muscle fibers and fascia underneath his skin.
But the sessions ended here.
At this moment,
Xiang Li’s body tissues no longer showed signs of necrosis.
Not only that,
As his heart beat faster, its sound grew louder.
With the support of the solution and his powerful body, the missing body tissues were quickly regenerated.
On the screen,
The color of the previously crimson human-shaped pattern gradually faded,
As green light gradually brightened.
The researchers in attendance all breathed a sigh of relief, and their hearts, which had been stuck in their throats, finally settled down.
However, they didn’t let down their vigilance,
They continued to pay attention to Xiang Li’s body condition and occasionally added repairing liquid and nutrient liquids to the solution, ensuring that Xiang Li could recover as quickly as possible.
Time passed slowly.
Five minutes later,
Xiang Li inside the container slowly opened his eyes.
His expression remained unchanged, and his eyes were still calm.
It seemed as if the person who had nearly lost his life earlier was not him.
However,
If observed carefully,
Fatigue could still be detected deep within Xiang Li’s eyes.
Using the power of the soul to transform his body so that it could accommodate the nuclear cells in such a short time,
Required a tremendous amount of mental energy.
Fortunately,
Getting a good start was the most difficult.
If the first step was taken,
What came next was adapting his body to its new state as quickly as possible and familiarizing himself with the presence and operation of nuclear cells.
To prepare for the injection for the second stage.
“Start preparing for the second stage.”
Xiang Li’s voice echoed in the pure white room.
As his words fell,
The researchers quickly began their preparations.
Soon,
The container emitted a suction sound.
The pale blue solution gradually receded.
Without any hesitation, Xiang Li stepped down from the opened glass cover.
At this moment,
The white-robed old man quickly approached, standing in front of Xiang Li who was preparing to leave the room.
