301. Research on Pregas (Part 1)
During the following period, Tang Xiao was completely immersed in the research of Das-Pregas. He read the manuscript left by Pregas several times.
The knowledge recorded in it is simply shocking. If discovered by Jedi Order, then these studies can be said to be absolutely taboo!
Judging from the content of the research, Das-Pregas has truly touched the most taboo aspect of the Force - creating life!
Moreover, Das-Pregas also conducted very detailed research on the Force's load-bearing capacity - Chlamydiae. This research can be said to be unique in the entire galaxy, and it can never be seen even in the collection of Jedi Temple.
As for the origin of the Force, one theory that Jedi Knight and Sith agree on is the existence of Chlamydiae (Midi-chlorians, the old version is translated as Midi-chlorians).
Chlamydiae is a creature that exists in the microscopic world. Every cell in a normal person's body contains about 1,000 to 2,500 Chlamydiae. The higher the density of Chlamydiae, the closer the connection between this person and the Force. Generally, the number of Chlamydiae density in a Jedi Knight is about 5,000 to 10,000 per cell. If the density of Chlamydiae exceeds 15,000, it can basically be said to be a pure the Force organism.
And Chlamydiae is closely connected with life. When a person dies, the Chlamydiae in his body will also dissipate.
Through Chlamydiae in the body, people can sense the Force and use the Force. Of course, if Chlamydiae density is too low, there will be no response from this sensor, or even if there is a response, it will be very subtle and cannot be noticed at all.
There are two different theories. One is that Chlamydiae was created by the Force to serve as a bridge between organisms and the Force. Another way of saying it is that Chlamydiae itself has the ability to perceive the Force, and the use of Chlamydiae is the use of the Force.
Obviously, Das-Pregas is a supporter of the latter statement and is also the direction of his research.
In the manuscript "A New Exploration of the Force" written by Darth Plagueis, the first sentence is. "The Jedi believe that the operation of the Force is mysterious, great, unsummable and undetectable. Such a statement is an admission of their own ignorance. Any mysterious power can be explained with unremitting efforts and expanding knowledge. As we do in the Republic Council, the Council is the foundation of the Republic, and the Force is the foundation of the Jedi..."
Regarding this sentence, Tang Xiao's understanding is that Pregas believes that Jedi Order put the Force in a mysterious cloak to maintain its transcendent status. Therefore, if this cloak can be taken off, then the foundation of Jedi Knight will no longer exist. And Sidious did the same thing - used the parliament's own authority to attack Galactic Republic.
Pregas's manuscript was full of notes, and these notes were made more than once. Some key places were even commented more than ten times. For this reason, Pregas had to add many pages to the manuscript, making these manuscripts look even more messy.
The study of the manuscripts and annotations is equivalent to going through the entire thinking mode of Pregas's research over the years. This is the most precious part of these manuscripts! Even taking a look at these manuscripts is definitely a felony for Jedi Knight. This is definitely not a joke.
After Tang Xiao's reading, he understood that Pregas's research on the Force can be highly summarized as "Trinity".
He believes that the Force is composed of three parts, the infinity (the aperion [Note 1]), the soul (the anima) and the spirit (and the pneuma).
Infinity represents the unified the Force (the Unifying Force), which contains all the energy in the universe;
The soul represents Life Force (the Living Force), which is the birth and foundation of all life;
Spirit represents the Force's conscious thought as expressed in the Force and is the consciousness of all things.
Pregas believes that as long as he can start from these three aspects, he can decipher the mysteries of life and the Force, thereby directly creating life, and even allowing himself to achieve Immortality.
Because Chlamydiae is the essence of thousands of creatures in the galaxy, so as long as he can master Chlamydiae, he is omnipotent.
According to the records of the manuscript, Darth-Pregas conducted an experiment about 10 years ago. He came into contact with the spirits of creatures in the entire galaxy through the resonance of Chlamydiae, and then set off a wave of tides throughout the galaxy through the powerful the Force, hoping to create a life of the Force.
However, the result of the experiment was nothing. Das-Sidious was also there at the time. The two waited for a few days and found that there was no change in the Force, so they thought the experiment failed. But Pregas still recorded the results of this experiment very carefully. Later, because he was worried that such a big move would be discovered by Jedi Order, this kind of experiment was never done again.
When I saw this, Tang Xiao's heart was beating fast, because if we extrapolate according to time, 10 years ago was exactly the time when Chosen One, Anakin-Skywalker were born!
Anakin-Skywalker has no father, his mother Shmi-Skywalker was conceived out of thin air, and Tang Xiao also knows that if you check the Chlamydiae density in Anakin-Skywalker, the number will be a terrifying 20,000!!
If Chlamydiae density exceeds 15,000, it can be said to be pure the Force life, and the density of Anakin exceeds 20,000. This number really has no other adjective except terrifying.
He remembered a previous statement that the birth of Anakin-Skywalker actually originated from Das-Pregas's experiment of using the Force to create life. But this statement is still untenable. No matter how talented Das-Pregas is, the gap between him and Anakin-Skywalker is still very huge. He does not have the ability to create an existence like Anakin-Skywalker.
Regarding Chosen One's statement, Das-Pregas also wrote a special manuscript, which shows that he also has a lot of research. After all, this is a very ancient the Force prophecy, and it may also be related to the life and death of Jedi Order and Sith.
Pregas first thinks that the term 'prophecy' is nonsense. It is just a conclusion drawn by the sages through observing the methods and laws of the Force's operation. There is no need to be so mysterious.
In other words, just like weather forecasting, I observe changes in airflow to predict weather conditions, and the same is true for this prediction. Pregas believes that as long as he can control Chlamydiae, then Chosen One is nothing more than insignificant.

[Note 1: aperion is a Greek word, which means unlimited and infinite, which means unlimited. I am particularly grateful to book friend General Kalani for his support and the Southern Warrior for his great answers. Otherwise, I really don't know how to explain this.]
PS: These two chapters are so difficult to write!! As for the concept of the Force, I tried my best to cover it as little as possible in the previous chapters, just because I was worried that everyone would be dizzy after reading it. However, after 300 chapters, I believe everyone has already had some understanding of this world, so at this time, I will explain to you what the Force is from the perspective of Darth-Pregas.
After all, this theory is also the basis of the power of the future protagonist Tang Xiao, because he will be the orthodox successor of Darth-Pregas.
