Chapter 393: Investigations



"The body composition of the humans in this world is indeed different from that of other worlds, albeit it being minute differences..."

As Fang Yuan executed his acupuncture, he mulled to himself.

Although he had lost all his cultivation, he still had his experiences from other worlds. Together with his skills in Medicine, he should be doing quite alright in this realm.

However, before he could do anything, he realised the hostility of this realm.

Although his acupuncture technique was good, the pressure points of the bodies here were already different, rendering his skills useless!

Therefore, in the past few years, he had sourced for bodies during his free time to practice. Finally, he had improved his skills and re-learnt the different locations of the pressure points of the humans in this realm and in the process, integrating into the realm.

Zhao Daniu, the guinea pig, was the unfortunate one. There were many instances where he was paralysed for almost half a day, causing him to fear needles the moment he sees them.

Of course, he did not sacrifice his body for nothing.

At least, with the help of Fang Yuan, he now knew how to control his strength and therefore, no one realised that he was a bit special.

"I am finally restoring my special traits! However, I have already looked after him for 3 years before finally getting a grasp of Medicine in this realm, sigh..... As a dream-traverser, I am really a failure..."

Fang Yuan secretly did something to make Zhao Daniu fall asleep.

With that, he closed his eyes and used the needles and his mind to finally detect traces of Zhao Daniu absorbing energy.

These traces were very small. Even with Fang Yuan’s current spiritual will, he found it extremely hard to detect and he could only make use of his possessed body to try and sense it.

However, as long as there were traces, it would be akin to finding an oasis in the desert and it was still good news.

"Although this world is the desert of energy sources, there are these kinds of droplets... Although extremely rare, from how Zhao Daniu has matured, I can confirm its existence and the fact that it is slowly strengthening... Regardless, it is still very weak."

Without any other consideration, Fang Yuan named this source of energy ’Spiritual Droplets’!

This had to be the mysterious force that Elder Extreme Darkness was talking about.

However, based on what Fang Yuan had learnt, such spiritual droplets were limited.

The weapons of this realm were highly developed. Although Zhao Daniu had a strong body which was even further strengthened by Fang Yuan, against a machine gun, he would still die.

Even if one was highly skilled in martial arts, one would still fear a knife. After 10 years of training, one would still die under a single shot from a gun!

This was the reality of this realm!

"Notwithstanding others, if I were to don an armour on him and equip him with a weapon, after some training, it would be different... at least normal security guards will not be able to take him down..."

Fang Yuan’s hands were swift as the needles flew about. In a moment, Zhao Daniu’s entire body was covered in needles.

If Zhao Daniu were to wake up now, he would realise that he had become a ’Needle Man’ and would take it out on Fang Yuan - Not that he could win Fang Yuan in a fight, that was.

"I’ve finally succeeded after so long and have discovered a quicker way to absorb the spiritual droplets!"

Fang Yuan’s eyes glistened.

On Zhao Daniu’s body, he had done all that he could. He had not only allowed Zhao Daniu to have full control of his strength, he had pushed him to the possibility of gaining full autonomy of his own body.

After many failures, it seemed like there was finally an outcome.

To speak the truth, although Fang Yuan had devised this acupuncture activating technique for a year, he was still not sure of its effectiveness.

Until now, that is. There was no more doubt.

"Hmmm... Without my help, Zhao Daniu’s strength will be comparable to two adults. Although I’ve only increased his strength by another 0.5, it is still stronger than what he was. I wonder if I can execute this technique on other normal humans."

Fang Yuan kept his needles. He knew that Zhao Daniu would only wake up after another hour and therefore, brought himself out to take a shower under the moonlight.

"Home is where the heart is... Unfortunately, everything is mixed up now!"

He heaved a huge breath, crossed his legs and faced the sky.

Retrieving his own silver needles, he started to pierce at his own acupuncture points. With the guidance of external forces, he started to force his body to react with the spiritual droplets in the air.

"It’s a good thing that I have experience of cultivation from other realms. This means that I will at least be able to achieve an initial breakthrough!"

Fang Yuan was clear about one thing.

According to how Immortal Cultivators cultivate, Zhao Daniu had a favourable body to begin with as it could absorb spiritual droplets by itself. However, Fang Yuan was possessing a normal body and it would be difficult for him to achieve a breakthrough to begin absorbing the spiritual droplets.

However, with his strong mind, he gritted his teeth and pierced another needle in his Baihui Acupuncture Point.

Within seconds, blood started to gather at his forehead, forming a red hue there.

"Whoo... I feel like I’m burning all over!"

Fang Yuan used his skills in Medicine to allow his blood to gather. Focused, he forcefully increased his Essence and Spirit. If he were to fail, he would become crippled!

Under an intense pressure, every minute felt like an eternity. Finally, after a long time...

"Chila!"

Fang Yuan heard a crisp sound coming from his forehead.

A strong mind power made Fang Yuan feel as though a river with clear spring water was flowing through his forehead.

"Haha..."

Although the number of spiritual droplets was negligible, Fang Yuan still smiled. "Finally... It’s done!"

With this step, Fang Yuan had officially entered the world of cultivation for this realm. Although he was still far behind those with favourable bodies, he could slowly catch up through his cultivation in the future.

His journey of becoming supernormal began here!

...

"This is... energy sense!"

Fang Yuan took in a deep breath. As he focused on the inside of his body, he could feel a warm stream of energy flowing about.

This force, compared to the elemental force of Da Qian, was but a firefly’s glow and was insignificant.

However, in this world where physics governed the rules of reality, it was already hard to cultivate this force.

"Since I’ve started on my journey of cultivation, there should be changes in my stats!"

Full of emotions, Fang Yuan gazed at his stats window:

"Name: Fang Yuan

Essence: 0.8

Spirit: 0.2

Magic: 1.0

Profession: ???

Cultivation: ???

Technique: [Elemental Spiritual Energy Cultivation Spell (Grade 1 (1%))]

Skill: [Medicine (Level 3)], [Botany (Level 5)], [Fiery Golden Eyes (Level 1)]"

"Elemental Spiritual Energy Cultivation Spell - Using the Guiding Skill as a foundation, together with acupuncture and breathing techniques, you will be able to change your physical body and increase the rate of absorption of spiritual droplets. Currently at Grade 1!"

It was a very normal and general explanation.

In fact, even the name ’spiritual droplet’ was coined by Fang Yuan himself.

Basically, it meant that Fang Yuan would use some complicated means to cover up for his weaknesses by absorbing energy from the spiritual droplets. After a prolonged period, he might be able to cultivate something.

"At such a stage, Grade 1 is already considered complete. At most I would have restored more than half of my Medicine Skills, right?"

Fang Yuan thought to himself before he woke Zhao Daoniu up.

"Ah..."

He forcefully supported himself up and was drenched in sweat. "I had a nightmare, a nightmare that I was in the operating theatre and many needles were poking me!"

"That is your own hallucination! Imagination!"

Fang Yuan didn’t even blink. "Also... Why are you still worried that others might discover your special ability? Didn’t I go through this with you before? Even if you were to be taken away by the government, you will be fine. Look at Liu Fei. Look at how luxurious his life is!"

Taking the orphanage as an example, in a thousand people, only two of them had awakened their special abilities. It was a 1 in 500 chance! What did this mean?

This might even be an overestimation, and the real probability might be 1 in a 1,000 or even 1 in 10,000... Looking at the population of Chinese Country, the outcome would still be a scarily big number of mutants.

These mutants would form the foundation of the society. However, no one would risk trying to deal with them unless they feel that their power is under threat.

Therefore, Fang Yuan predicted that in the future, it would be likely that others would try to establish good ties with these mutants and forcefully deal with those who would cause trouble.

Although there would be an increasing amount of experimentation done on these people, it would not result in the loss of their personal freedom as would not be as direct as wheeling them into the operation theatre.

What special abilities would these people be displaying?

Would they run faster? Would they lift heavier? Although it would be hard to believe, how would normal people understand the concept of the limits of the human body? They would be convinced with any simple explanation that the scientists could cook up.

Looking at the trend of the world, Fang Yuan could generally guess what the people in power would be dealing with.

"In the new era, humans are evolving... It is such an ideal situation! As long as these mutants remain and the stage there are at in the present day and do not display any surprising traits... they would be able to integrate with the normal humans without being detected and from there, unleash the potential of the human body."

Zhao Daniu’s reaction of shock was only an exception and could not be taken into account for Fang Yuan was partly responsible for him as well.

"But..."

At this point, Fang Yuan smiled. "Such a mutation... or should I say evolution... will it stop here?"

According to Fang Yuan’s theory, although there was a scarcity of spiritual droplets in this realm, there seemed to be a trend pointing towards the increase in the concentration of spiritual droplets.

...

In the mountains not far from Mountain Ocean City.

At the foot of the mountain within the depths of the forest, many buildings were concentrated in an area, forming a base.

In an office, A middle-aged man wearing white robes had the vibes of a military personnel. He was reading a report intently. "... In conclusion, I believe that these ’evolvers’ will not have a substantial impact on the society. Therefore, our actions need not be too extreme and we should remain in observation as much as possible."

"The transformation of their genes is something very hard to predict... For instance, that witch-lady who is indestructible during the war..."

An old man raised his glasses.

The middle-aged investigator froze.

The records of that witch-lady were in the top-secret files of every country. Only the people of authority would have access to these files.

"This is the main point of our investigation... Furthermore, I cannot give assurance of the stability of these evolvers because according to a 3-year-long study on 100 of them, it seems like they are getting stronger and stronger..."

The middle-aged investigator turned solemn. "Therefore, I hope that this plan will be approved!"

He took a step forward and carefully placed a document on the desk.

Under the glare of the desk light, the huge words of were illuminated, making it feel mysterious.
