"Buzzing..."

The spacious lobby of the Core Research Building had been cleared out, with only one machine used for shaping the physical body in operation.

Shisui had disguised himself as the person in charge, led the group into the hall.

Although the place was clearly very spacious and brightly lit, Yuan Yuan felt a strange sense of suffocation welling up inside him.

It was as if he had entered not an experimental building, but a hunter's snare.

Are you afraid? Afraid that the reconstructed body won't be as good as the original?

The voice of "[Survival in Desperate Situations]" happened to appear in his mind, interrupting his various suspicious speculations.

The "Survival in Desperate Situations" mentality, already deeply ingrained in his soul, began to control his thoughts using the Rc Cells protecting him.

So, without hesitation, he answered in his mind, "I'm just a little nervous."

His doubts were dispelled once again.

[Survival in Desperate Situations] He breathed a quiet sigh of relief, much like a human being.

God knows how many times he pulled Yuan Yuan back along the way. All I can say is that Shisui is really not even bothering to act anymore, just to finish the job as quickly as possible.

Zi Sui, who was leading the way, understood Shisui and sent another wave of Psychic Energy to [Survival in Desperate Situations].

Furthermore, it was vaguely revealed that they had left behind several crystals condensed from the Heaven Realm flesh and blood.

[Survival in Desperate Situations]: I love my job, thank you boss!

Zi stopped in front of the body reconstruction machine, which was much larger than any other equipment he had seen before.

At this moment, the area is bustling with activity, and a group of researchers are gathered around.

Shisui would never do the experiment himself.

He's only studied some theoretical knowledge in the last few days; it's not enough for him to complete such delicate work.

However, he didn't intend to say much to this second prince, so he didn't need to worry about such details.

"Your Highness, I need to go to the back to oversee the experimental procedures. Excuse me."

Before the crowd behind him could say anything, Shisui spoke first, and at the same time pulled over a researcher.

"You are responsible for explaining the experimental procedure to them."

"Yes."

The researcher who had been brought in obediently responded, and then spoke to Yuan Yuan and his group.

"All you need to do is place the special materials and the container containing the soul into the slot after we've prepared everything."

The researcher turned to show a semi-circular groove not far away, as well as a window for loading materials.

The size of that groove perfectly matches the size of the container the Second Prince is currently using.

Incidentally, the container that can temporarily hold and nurture the soul is also a result of the Second Research Institute.

After the researcher finished speaking, he remained silent, standing quietly to the side, waiting to be questioned.

Upon seeing Yuan Yuan cursed inwardly for his lack of tact, but the voice emanating from his soul was calm and gentle.

"Introduce me to the prototype used for reshaping my physical body."

"Yes."

The researcher responded quickly, followed by a report.

"The blank prototype used in this experiment was modified from the shell of Sea Demon Species."

"Not only does it possess the ability to control water, but its aptitude is also exceptionally high."

"This body had already reached the Earth Realm before it lost its soul."

Yuan Yuan understood.

The translation is: The other person is about the same age as you, but has already crossed the threshold of the Earth Realm; their talent is far superior to your previous body.

He immediately nodded in satisfaction and gestured for the guards behind him carrying various rare materials to step forward.

Blood coral enhances hematopoietic speed.

Reddish-brown seaweed crystals enhance the rate of cell proliferation and increase the body's self-repair capabilities.

The Sea Demon Species's royal blood enhances her physical attributes.

A dozen or so materials were poured into the coffin connected to the back of the equipment, and the special solution surrounding the body began to change color.

Once the last ingredient was added, the solution had completely transformed from a light red to a viscous dark red.

Everything is ready; all that's missing is for the container to fit into the groove.

"Click!"

It's the sound of the container being embedded in the instrument.

As the sound subsided, a figure suddenly rushed over from afar.

"Your Highness, you mustn't!"

But it was too late.

"Bang!"

Before the newcomer even got close to the equipment, or even before he had fully entered the research building, the enormous impact sent him flying.

At the same time, all the guards around them were instantly turned into bursting blood flowers under the impact of the Psychic Energy.

It was then condensed into a crystal that floated in the air, shimmering with a red glow.

The machines and researchers inside the hall were largely undamaged, thanks to the protection of the abundant Feather Powder.

It's just that some members with lower cultivation levels had traces of blood flowing from their ears, nose, and mouth.

It will not affect the operation of their equipment.

At this moment, Yuan Yuan did not hear Ze Lao's reminder, and his soul had already sunk into his new body.

In the distance, Ze Lao, who had been thrown backward, had eyes that were practically bloodshot.

He couldn't understand why the Second Research Institute had been hacked.

But he had no time to think. The moment he sensed something was wrong, he immediately rushed towards the Second Prince's direction.

"You audacious scoundrel, how dare you plot against a member of the royal family! Aren't you afraid...?!"

"It's so noisy."

Before the old man could finish his scolding, a heavy blow came straight at his face, sending him flying again.

Blood mixed with tooth fragments spurted out, and the severe head injury caused a buzzing sound in the Heaven Realm's mind.

However, the boost from the immense Psychic Energy stopped his dizziness and vertigo mid-air.

He managed to steady himself and was about to counterattack the enemy.

The next moment, Koukaku, armored longsword emerged and severed his neck.

Shisui hovered in mid-air, holding a knife in one hand and his head in the other.

The Spatial Energy fluctuated in his hand, and his brain was completely extracted.

The remaining head and the other's body were enveloped by a swarm of Feather Powder.

The Feather Powder completely blocked the blood that was about to gush out after the blood vessel ruptured.

Moments later, his heart stopped beating, and his blood stopped circulating.

After packing up the Sea Race feast he would be enjoying later, Shisui returned to the Core Research Building.

In less than ten seconds of this hunt, the Second Prince Yuan Yuan's soul had already arrived in his new body.

After all, the soul should not linger outside for too long, so switching containers should be done swiftly and decisively.

So far, all the physical reconstruction experiments have followed normal procedures.

Shisui walked toward the window where materials were being deposited, and a wound spontaneously opened in his wrist, allowing a large amount of blood composed of Rc Cells to flow in.

A moment later, the wound closed on its own.

Meanwhile, inside the coffin behind the various instruments, the liquid near the body continued to deepen in color.

It only stopped when it turned a deep red, almost black, and became indistinguishable from the color of Kagune.

These Rc Cells are not some gentle creatures to be slaughtered at will.

Thus, Yuan Yuan, who was establishing a connection with the new body, was unexpectedly surrounded by Rc Cells.

His soul thus experienced the pain of being simultaneously devoured by tens of thousands of ants.

He struggled desperately, trying to break free from them and return to the temporary container.

But the next moment, the [Survival in Desperate Situations] within his soul suddenly exerted its power, pinning him to this body.

This betrayal came suddenly, leaving Yuan Yuan, who was already at a disadvantage, with no chance of escape.

"Since you're already here, don't leave."

The familiar voice echoed in my mind, but this time it revealed undisguised malice.

Moments later, Yuan Yuan was completely controlled and lost his will.
