Chapter 407: Chapter 229: Body Cultivation Gene Potion_2

Those so-called Heavenly Ghosts were simply the failed experimental subjects and bio-weapons from before.

"Body Cultivation Gene Potion series? This..." Gu Shanhai quickly found the complete experimental records and data, his expression also taking on a "holy shit" look.

These people were truly geniuses. Through the genes and cells of the Body Refining practitioners, they had formed a whole new series of gene potions. As long as the prescriptions were injected in sequence, one could gradually obtain the powerful physique of the Body Refining practitioners.

For instance, the Qi Refining Body Cultivation Gene, after being injected, enabled one to achieve the physical quality of a Body Cultivation practitioner within ten days to a month. The details could even be subdivided, like the Qi Refining Wind Thunder Body Gene Potion, which not only provided the corresponding strength but also bestowed the Divine Skills of the Wind Thunder Body breakthrough that were typical at the Qi Refining Body Refining Stage.

And once the gene potion modification was completed, one could be injected with the Foundation Establishment Type, which was essentially a fast and mass-produced means of creating Body Refining Cultivators.

As for the drawbacks, there certainly were some. The first was the issue of Mana. Those who became Cultivators through gene potions only had one percent of the normal Mana, essentially focusing all on strength and agility, and the might of their breakthrough Divine Skills would also be reduced.

However, correspondingly, their physical strength, cell activity, etc., were far superior to those of the same realm.

Don’t think that these gene potions were so powerful, offering instant success and mass production; the raw materials restrained them. The materials needed for the gene potions naturally corresponded to each realm’s breakthrough materials, like how the Qi Refinement Realm type needed the energy of heaven and earth, the Foundation Establishment type required the essence of myriad things, and so on—nothing was dispensable.

Gu Shanhai quickly finished browsing and formed a solid understanding of the Body Cultivation Gene Potion series in his mind.

Useful, but not for him; they could be used to produce large numbers of cannon fodder and lesser soldiers.

"What a pity, the Body Cultivation Gene Potion series only went up to the Spirit Origin Type and then stopped." Gu Shanhai felt somewhat helpless inside.

The reason for the halt was naturally due to the shortage of experimental materials. They didn’t have that many Spirit Veins for research, and from the data, it appeared that the Spirit Origin Type was not perfect either.

Therefore, they turned towards another research direction, which was the adaptive evolution that Gu Shanhai saw outside. Those Heavenly Ghosts had all been injected with the Purple Mansion Type gene potion and had breakthrough Divine Skills, except that the ability of adaptive evolution had induced changes in them.

Gu Shanhai even suspected that perhaps it was the excessive number of evolutions that caused the genetic instability in these Heavenly Ghosts, rendering their breakthrough Divine Skills ineffective.

Besides that, Gu Shanhai also harvested other project data, such as the original gene potions, which were similarly incomplete, but the corresponding biological knowledge broadened his horizons, filling out his flesh and blood technology to form a whole new knowledge system.

As for other gains, there weren’t many.

All the specimens in the biological laboratory had long ago died, only leaving behind those few Heavenly Ghosts outside that weren’t of much reference value.

The biological laboratory itself still had some worth, such as its energy systems, the synthesis formulas for construction materials, and so on.

Gu Shanhai had thought about trying to perfect the Spirit Origin Type gene potion, but upon looking at the cost, he found it unplayable. To truly achieve successful research, without a thousand or eight hundred Spirit Veins, it was hardly possible.

If he were to ask for them, the Mahayana Xuanzhen Sect would indeed give them, but it was too exhausting. He still had to find a Spirit Plant with spatial abilities.

After all these years, the Mahayana Xuanzhen Sect hadn’t helped him find one, making Gu Shanhai doubt whether the Xuanzhen Realm truly had such Spirit Plants.

However, if there were no Spirit Origin Type gene potion, the remaining Qi Refinement Type, Foundation Establishment Type, and Purple Mansion Type gene potions were essentially reduced to being useless.

The gap between the Lower Three Realms and the Middle Three Realms was quite significant.

"Forget it, I’ll let the Sect Leader decide whether to continue developing it. If they do wish to develop it further, they’ll have to help me find a spatial-type Spirit Plant."

Gu Shanhai had his plans in mind. In truth, if he had to search by himself, he’d simply be burning through resources, but this world was just too ruthless, and he wasn’t a big sucker to be blindly exploited by others.

```

If that won’t work, he could just switch to a different world to look for it. It’d be an absolute loss to use up millions of years of lifespan this way; another world might only need a fraction of that.

```

```

Quickly, Gu Shanhai contacted Yun Yu and informed him of the greatest discovery.

```

```

Yun Yu, upon hearing Gu Shanhai’s request, was naturally overjoyed, "Don’t worry about the Spirit Vein; it’s just the Spirit Plant you need... that’s really hard to find. I’ve got a lead on it, but it’s going to take some time."

```

```

"How long is this ’some time’ you’re talking about?" Gu Shanhai asked.

```

```

"No more than three years, I’ll definitely get it for you!" Yun Yu also gritted his teeth, giving Gu Shanhai a timeframe he could accept. Then, licking his face, he added, "So, why not develop the Heavenly Scenery Type and Cave Soul Type gene potions while you’re at it."

```

```

"???" Gu Shanhai was exasperated, did they really think he could do anything?

```

```

He could perfect the Spiritual Origin Type because the other party had mature data, and all Gu Shanhai had to do was fill in the gaps.

```

```

But the Heavenly Scenery Type and Cave Soul Type would not be so easy; they would require him to start from scratch.

```

```

"I’ll do my best, but I have to tell you in advance, these things are more inclined towards Body Refining. Even if someone reaches the Spirit Origin Stage through the Spiritual Origin Type, they’ll have much less Mana than those who achieve it through normal breakthroughs. The advantage lies in having a stronger physique," Gu Shanhai also made his position clear.

```

```

"No problem, I don’t plan to use it on disciples; it’s meant for Loose Cultivators and mortals, to expand their productivity," said Yun Yu casually.

```

```

Gu Shanhai nodded, then he remembered something else: "Don’t even think about using them again after a breakthrough; it would cause rejection and won’t make them stronger."

```

```

He was worried that Yun Yu might have a lapse in judgment and inject Body Cultivation Gene Potion into a Cultivator who had already achieved a normal breakthrough, such as giving a Qi Refinement Realm Cultivator the Qi Refining Wind Thunder Body Gene Potion or injecting any gene potion a second time. This could be lethal, or if not fatal, could lead to chaos in Mana, gene mutations, and various other problems.

```

```

"Don’t worry, I’m reliable," Yun Yu had no such thoughts; he wasn’t foolish.

```

```

As for what Loose Cultivators might do, that was no longer Gu Shanhai’s concern. Some people believed they were Children of Destiny and wouldn’t be dissuaded by anyone.

```

```

"Ah, all right, just be a bit more reliable, and I can worry less," Gu Shanhai knew Yun Yu was reliable, but the tasks he set for himself were anything but.

```

```

Here he was at the Spirit Origin Stage, yet he was being asked to study gene potions for stages even above his, the Heavenly Scenery Stage and Cave Soul Stage. Fortunately, Yun Yu knew his limits and hadn’t dared to ask Gu Shanhai to develop gene potions for the Upper Three Realms as well.

```

```

In fact, Gu Shanhai also knew that the Mahayana Xuanzhen Sect lacked a large number of middle-level members. These middle-level roles were held by Middle Three Realms disciples. Those in the Lower Three Realms might have a wealth of experience when placed among Loose Cultivators, but within the Mahayana Xuanzhen Sect, they were basically still in the equivalent of a nine-year compulsory education.

```

```

Reaching the Purple Mansion Stage was akin to an internship, getting familiar with the business until the official breakthrough to the Spirit Origin Stage, where they could actually start working.

```

```

Training a middle-level disciple capable of management would take enough time to see off one or even several generations of mortals.

```

```

With the Body Cultivation Gene Potion series, Yun Yu would be able to promote mortals and manipulate Loose Cultivators through the gene potions.

```

```

Loose Cultivators didn’t have a 100% certainty of breakthrough, but with an injection of the gene potion, there was not only no danger but also no need to collect rare treasures from heaven and earth.

```

```

Those Loose Cultivators who had been trapped at a bottleneck for who knows how many years would definitely go mad for it. Even if it meant that after the breakthrough, their Mana would be less than others at the same stage, but with a stronger body to compensate.

```

```

Therefore, the series of Body Cultivation Gene Potions was considered a strategic level secret within the Mahayana Xuanzhen Sect, on par with the God Slayer Mecha, one preserving resources for the livelihood of the people, the other ensuring the safety of military power.

```

```

Otherwise, how could Yun Yu allow Gu Shanhai to control the allocation of resources without hesitation? And this was just the beginning, after all, aside from the Spirit Vein, he would soon need things like the treasures of heaven and earth as well.
