Severed Limb Regeneration

Hong's gaze was icy. "Everyone here is a top genius on Earth and the hope for the future of humanity. I hope you can clearly understand that becoming a God of War is just the most basic requirement. Your goal should be to become an existence that Beyond War God!"

"That's just the beginning of the road."

The proper term for warriors, generals, and war gods is Apprentice Level. In other words, one cannot be considered to have embarked on the path of cultivation until they reach the Planetary level.

The trainees held their breath, filled with longing. Could they really Beyond War God?

Hong's words seemed to have a magical power, lingering in their minds.

After Hong finished speaking, he prepared to leave, with the two Inspector following behind him.

Suddenly he turned around. "Lin Yan, come with me."

Lin Yan was a little puzzled. Was something the matter?

I had no choice but to follow behind.

The students behind them were excitedly discussing after they left. Lin Yan was actually Mental Master! This was really big news. They wondered what the headmaster wanted him to do!

Lin Yan followed Hong and the others into a villa, not far from the place where Fu Yu had summoned him before, but this villa was the largest of all the villas here.

Completely Chinese style, classical garden, with stacked mountains and flowing water, overflowing with natural beauty.

A quiet tea room.

The two Inspector did not follow them in; only Hong and Lin Yan sat facing each other.

Lin Yan watched Hong slowly and methodically brewing tea and couldn't help but think that Fu Yu had done the same thing last time, which must have been influenced by Hong.

He is influencing those around him, the Limit Martial Hall, Hongning Base City, and even the whole world all by his own efforts.

"Although I don't know what you did to make Jia Yi value you so much, since he asked me for help, I can't refuse."

Hong's voice remained as cold as before, but his tone had softened considerably.

Lin Yan looked at him, puzzled, and asked, "What's wrong with Councillor Jia?"

Hong looked at Lin Yan and replied, "He offered me 10 portions of Jade Marrow in exchange for a copy of the manual 'Mental Master Foundation,' and asked me to give it to you."

10 portions of Jade Marrow, exchanged for "Mental Master Foundation"?

Then hand it over to me?

At this point, Hong shook his head. "Because of the scarcity of raw materials, the output of Jade Marrow in Huaxia has always been very low, so I was quite surprised when he made this request to me."

His gaze was icy. "I do not agree with this approach. I know you are very talented. To be able to reach the High-level War God at such a young age, your innate Mental Power is extremely strong. In fact, I would say that you are one of the best among the people I have met over the years."

Looking at the world, there are only a little over three thousand War Gods, and only a few hundred High-level War God. Mental Master of this level are even rarer, numbering in the hundreds.

Moreover, they were not born with this level of Mental Power; rather, they had already exhausted their potential beforehand. Before becoming High-level War God -level Mental Master, they were already High-level War God warriors.

Instead of like Lin Yan, who became a war god and thus his Mental Power increased to this level.

The only one Hong could think of that could be compared to it was East of the European Union Country, and East was now Planetary level being, the strongest Mental Master on Earth.

"Your Brain Domain Width must be quite extraordinary. Mental Master naturally have an advantage in this area, and the fact that you can Combat Power Amplitude by 17.2 further confirms this, demonstrating your exceptional comprehension."

"But talent isn't the most important thing. If these 10 portions of Jade Marrow were used on other people, they might be able to cultivate 10 war gods in a year. But since you're exchanging them for 'Mental Master Foundation' here, you can only use them."

"I have always believed that one can only receive these things by making contributions, but Jia Yi has his own ideas, and I have nothing to say about them."

"But I'm reminding you here that what you've gained should rightfully be returned in kind, do you understand?"

Lin Yan understood perfectly.

Jia Yi traded 10 portions of Jade Marrow for "The Mental Master Foundation" from him. Hong felt that this was a bit excessive and conflicted with his own beliefs, but he also had a friendship with Jia Yi, so he couldn't refuse.

So I'd like to remind myself of something here, lest I entrust this to the wrong person.

Lin Yan was also somewhat surprised that Jia Yi would do this. After thinking about it, he figured that the Coenzyme R3V production line must have been completed and started production, so he was financially well-off.

In the past, it might not have been possible to accumulate 10 portions in a month.

Lin Yan said, "Thank you for your guidance, Head Curator. I will certainly not let Councillor Jia down."

Hong nodded slightly.

"You have already passed the battle performance evaluation yesterday, been certified as the God of War, and joined the War God Palace. This secret manual is in your private space in the War God Palace. You can keep it to yourself, but remember one thing: you must never teach it to anyone else."

The War God Palace is a group composed of all War Gods and beings of War God level or above in the world.

Everyone who becomes a God of War will become one of them.

Hong and Thunder God were the founders of the War God Palace. When a martial artist joins the War God Palace, they will receive a Consciousness Sensor Helmet free of charge. Through this helmet, they can enter the virtual space.

The "Mental Master Foundation" manual is extremely precious and confidential, so there is no physical copy. Instead, it is stored in this virtual space, where you can read the manual.

Lin Yan said, "I understand."

Hong Wei nodded slightly and said, "You can go now."

Lin Yan did not stay in the Training Camp any longer. He had already completed his graduation procedures and there was nothing else to do.

After saying goodbye to Chu Qiang and Zhao Ruo, he boarded a long-haul passenger plane bound for Tianjing Base City.

A month later, he returned here.

He took a taxi from the airport back to the military region's family living area. Taxis were not allowed to enter, and the soldiers on duty offered to drive him home, but Lin Yan didn't want to trouble them and chose to walk home.

Returning here, he felt much lighter.

He didn't have his keys with him, so he knocked on the door.

Lin Tangtang saw Lin Yan return from the security camera footage at the door. She excitedly ran to open the door and then jumped up and clung to him like a koala.

"How old are you? Why do you still need to be carried?"

Lin Yan put his backpack on the ground and then walked into the living room.

Upon hearing this, Lin Tangtang immediately retorted, "Hmph, I'm going to tell Mom that you have a girlfriend and don't want your sister anymore!"

Lin Yan was taken aback.

How did you know I have a girlfriend?

He didn't mention this at home.

The little guy was very proud of himself, and said with his head held high, "I heard it from Grandpa Dai and Grandma Sun!"

Then he whispered, "I've kept your secret at home, I haven't said a word."

He looks very cute with his serious expression.

Grandpa Dai and Grandma Sun refer to Dai Chun and his wife.

Lin Yan asked with a smile, "What did Grandpa Dai and the others say? Our family's little secret agent."

"They said you're amazing, and that older sister is also outstanding. Anyway, they said you've done something amazing recently, but I don't understand it and can't remember it."

Um?

He and Wen Zhi'an usually video chat, so why haven't I heard her mention it?

Lin Tangtang's big eyes sparkled. "Brother, can you take me to meet that older sister?"

What are you doing?

Lin Tangtang said, "I'm so curious."

Lin Yan knew what the little guy was thinking after a moment's thought.

"Don't you want to do your homework, so you want to go out and play?"

Lin Tangtang earnestly tried to deny it. "No, you've misunderstood me!"

"Have you finished your homework?"

"Yes, almost done, almost finished writing."

Her gaze darted away, and she lowered her head, realizing that her plans to go out and have fun had fallen through again.

Lin Yan patted her head and said, "Then I'll trust you this once and take you there."

"Really?" Tangtang looked up, surprised and delighted.

Why would I lie to you?

Lin Tangtang immediately urged, "Good brother, let's go quickly."

Lin Yan put Lin Tangtang down, took out his phone, and dialed Wen Zhi'an.

After a while, Wen Zhi'an answered the phone, and Lin Yan asked, "Are you in the lab?"

"Yes, I'm here. What's up?"

Lin Yan laughed and said, "I just got back. Tangtang was clamoring at home to see the fairy sister. I thought I should grant her wish, so I asked if you were in the lab."

"You're such a smooth talker!" Wen Zhi'an snorted, surprised. "You're bringing Tangtang along?"

Although she had never met Lin Tangtang, she already knew that Lin Yan had a younger sister. Lin Yan had never respected Princess Tangtang's portrait rights and privacy rights, and even used her photos as emojis when chatting.

Who can blame her for having such a lively and expressive face?

Lin Yan said, "Um, is it convenient?"

"Come here, it's okay."

"Okay, I'll go there now."

Lin Yan hung up the phone. Lin Tangtang was looking at him with disdain. Lin Yan laughed and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"I never begged to see the fairy sister! You dared to slander my reputation just to please a girl! You must compensate me for the damage to my reputation!"

Lin Tangtang put her hands on her hips and shouted loudly.

"You think you know everything!"

In the end, Lin Yan drove away and compensated Lin Tangtang with a large snack Gift Package.

His previous car was totaled, and Dai Chun replaced it for him.

Lin Yan handed her the snack Gift Package and asked, "Is this compensation for reputational damage acceptable?"

Lin Tangtang didn't mind at all and immediately hugged her, saying, "What reputational damage? That's not true. I was the one who said those words!"

Where did you learn all this?

Lin Yan couldn't help but chuckle as he watched Lin Tangtang sit in the passenger seat, open the bag, take out candy, and even tear off a piece to feed Lin Yan.

They soon arrived at their destination.

Lin Yan parked the car and saw Wen Zhi'an waiting outside in his lab coat. It was already the end of the year and a cold wind was blowing outside. Lin Yan led Lin Tangtang over.

Wen Zhi'an looked a little uneasy.

Lin Yan bent down and asked, "Tangtang, isn't Zhi'an pretty?"

Lin Tangtang looked at Wen Zhi'an seriously, then nodded and said, "Brother has such good taste."

"Your sister is so beautiful."

Her high ponytail swayed back and forth.

Wen Zhi'an smiled gently and said, "Tangtang is even cuter than in the photos."

What photo?

Lin Tangtang cast a suspicious look at Lin Yan.

"Haha." Lin Yan picked up Lin Tangtang and changed the subject, saying, "Let's go inside. I heard you've done something big lately?"

Wen Zhi'an nodded slightly and said, "I already told you I'm very capable."

"Good, good, Teacher Wen is amazing."

Lin Yan smiled and said, "Come, let me, the Minister, examine Professor Wen's research findings."

He sounds like a veteran cadre.

Before the veteran cadre could even display his power for half a minute, he ran into Wen Xiuyong.

Wen Zhi'an took two steps forward, and Lin Yan felt a bad premonition. She said, "Professor, this is Minister Lin. He said he's here to inspect our work."

Oh my god!

This isn't appropriate!

Wen Xiuyong looked at them strangely. What was going on?

"You came back today?"

"Yes, I haven't been back for long."

Who is this child?

"She is my sister."

Lin Yan dared not act like a minister, answering each question with a single sentence.

When Wen Xiuyong met Lin Yan's family for the first time, he took a few more glances and smiled kindly, "Then let Zhi'an show you around."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Lin Yan looked at Wen Zhi'an speechlessly. She was keeping a straight face, but you could still see that she was trying hard to suppress a smile.

She gestured and said, "Minister Lin, this way."

Lin Tangtang asked, "Brother, what does 'minister' mean?"

"Tangtang will understand when she grows up a little more."

The laboratory was large, and the researchers inside were all busy with their own tasks.

Cylindrical glass columns are visible everywhere, soaked in a pale blue Nutrient Fluid, with various embryos or biological joints of different shapes and sizes suspended inside.

Lin Tangtang wasn't afraid at all, and watched with a lot of excitement.

Wen Zhi'an stopped and pointed to a glass pillar, saying, "Guess what this is?"

Lin Yan looked over and saw a thick, soft tissue inside, which looked dark blue and somewhat like an octopus tentacle.

He pondered for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Are you trying to tell me that these are... the tentacles of the Eight-clawed Beast Emperor?"

There was a hint of disbelief in his expression.

The Eight-clawed Beast Emperor and the Thunder Dragon Emperor are the kings of Earth's monsters. It can be said that apart from Hong and the Thunder God, no one can match them, and encountering them is certain death.

Moreover, they are Sea Region monsters with a natural advantage in the ocean, and even floods cannot do anything to them.

But how did this kind of body tissue end up in Wen Xiuyong's laboratory?

Wen Zhi'an asked in surprise, "You could even guess that?"

"Back then, Hong and Thunder God fought against the Monster Emperor once. Although they failed to kill them, they still managed to keep half of the Eight-clawed Beast Emperor's arm. After that, all five great nations bought parts of that body tissue from them."

Human combat suits and weapons were invented using materials from the corpses of monsters.

Even just a part of the limb tissue has extremely high research value.

"So, what have you figured out?"

Wen Zhi'an replied, "Actually, a long time ago, humans wondered if animals such as planarians, salamanders, and starfish have extremely strong regenerative abilities, and whether it was possible to achieve 'Severed Limb Regeneration' in humans by studying the genes of these animals' cells."

Lin Yan's eyes lit up.

"But ultimately this idea is difficult to realize because Stem Cell have limited differentiation capabilities; they can only repair damage and heal wounds, but cannot regenerate a new arm."

"The Water of Life can do this, but its principle is closer to an energy form, which is completely beyond our existing knowledge system."

"The two great Beast Emperor in the Sea Region are the Thunder Dragon Emperor, known for its speed, lightning, and strength, and the Eight-clawed Beast Emperor, known for its defense, regeneration, venom, and Strangulation power!"

Wen Zhi'an explained in detail, "This regenerative ability is so strong that even after decades, this missing limb tissue still maintains strong cellular activity."

"And through it, I have achieved important results in the induction of Stem Cell differentiation."

She looked radiant.

"The possibility of realizing the ability of human limb regeneration."

Thanks to zht, whose nickname already exists, and Yuguang Universe for the reward.

Today I realized that my previous ideas conflicted with the original setting. I racked my brains and came up with a great new concept, but the Earth arc requires me to untangle more plot threads, and I'm a little worried that my abilities are limited and I won't be able to write it well.
