Mystery

Wei He put the sample back and replaced the lid.

"Let me see whether it really is caused by biological structure."

He left the sample area and went to the sample section for Star Abyss-corrupted beasts.

He casually found a piece of flesh from a non-native corrupted beast, extended the index finger he had just transformed into a six-eyed spider, and slowly brought it closer.

Then he released his psionic protection.

Very soon, a chaotic, violent Star Abyss will rapidly spread over from that piece of flesh.

Even psionicists faced a tremendous risk of corruption when confronting corrupted beasts without psionic protection or colony protection.

Drugs such as radiation needles had been developed for precisely such circumstances.

In mere moments, Wei He's index finger began to turn completely black, becoming covered in scales as it gradually transformed into that of a corrupted beast.

The corrupted cells and flesh became intensely aggressive, attempting to spread toward Wei He's palm.

Hiss!

He decisively sliced off that entire finger.

Wei He even cut away a little extra, lest any residue had been left behind.

"Useless." Wei He shook his head slightly.

His Flesh and Blood Martial Arts Path could already simulate things at the genetic level on the microscopic scale, but anything smaller was beyond what he could currently achieve.

The Empire had instruments capable of examining more microscopic levels, but analyzing them would take time.

Genes were essentially studied on the molecular scale, while the even smaller atomic scale was not something Wei He could yet touch.

"Looks like I'll have to wait longer. I also need more samples and more trials."

While everyone else had to rely on instruments, Wei He's extraordinarily powerful bodily control meant that he alone was a biological laboratory.

Though it was somewhat rudimentary and only reached
