The electric current finally stopped, and God King Tang San lay on the ground, panting heavily, his whole body still throbbing with numbness. He tried to prop himself up with his hands, but as soon as he exerted any force, his arms began to tremble uncontrollably, and he could only lie back down on the ground.
He never expected that his newly acquired body would still retain this device that allowed him to control his body. Even as a former God King, he would never want to experience that excruciating pain again.
Seeing his disheveled appearance, the Golden Dragon King couldn't help but laugh gleefully, "Hahaha! Kid, I kindly warned you earlier that this company wasn't so easy to mess with, but you wouldn't listen. How about it, now you know how powerful they are?"
God King Tang San was so angry that he gritted his teeth, wishing he could immediately get up and give the Golden Dragon King a good whack, but the numbness in his body made it impossible for him to even stand up, let alone continue to curse.
He finally realized a terrible problem: his life was now completely in the hands of the Interastral Peace Corporation.
If the opponent so desires, they can render you incapacitated at any time. Even with the Twin Martial Souls of Blue Silver Emperor and Clear Sky Hammer, you have no chance to resist.
The research assistant standing next to him looked at him and rolled his eyes in annoyance.
"Hmph, if you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place? You could have just cooperated properly. Why did you have to make such a mess of things?"
The assistant put away the controller and waved to the security personnel behind him. "Take it away and continue the experiment. Ms. Nguyen Mai is waiting to review the data; don't waste time here."
Two tall security guards immediately came over, grabbed God King Tang San's arms on either side, and pulled him up from the ground.
"Release... release this God King!"
God King Tang San struggled instinctively, but his body had not fully recovered, and he couldn't muster any strength in his legs.
The two security guards didn't waste any words with him. They dragged him to the testing equipment and threw him into the testing chamber like a sack of potatoes.
God King Tang San groaned as he fell, and just as he was about to get angry, he saw the assistant standing next to the instrument, still holding the controller from before.
He immediately shut his mouth.
Never mind, a true man can bend and stretch.
Once I, the God King, have resumed my cultivation and regained my former strength, I will come back to settle accounts with you!
Seeing that Tang San had finally calmed down, the assistant nodded in satisfaction and signaled the staff to start the detection device.
"Mr. Tang San, please cooperate with the examination as Ms. Ruan Mei requested. As long as you don't cause any trouble, we will not take any further action against you."
God King Tang San snorted coldly, did not answer, and obediently lay in the machine, never mentioning leaving again.
Ruan Mei approached the control panel, checked the new body's vital signs, and then said, "First, check the connection between the soul and the body, then test the stability of the two Martial Soul. Tang San, release your First Martial Soul first."
God King Tang San raised his right hand, and as a faint blue-gold light shone, a Blue Silver Emperor slowly appeared in his palm. Golden patterns were distributed on the slender grass leaves, emitting a faint fluctuation of Soul Power.
The nearby testing equipment immediately started operating, and several staff members stared at the data on the screen, quickly recording the changes.
" The First Martial Soul was released normally; the Blue Silver Emperor's structure is stable, and no rejection reaction was detected."
"The connection between the Martial Soul and the nervous system is normal, and there are no abnormalities in the transmission of Soul Power."
Ruan Mei nodded and continued, "Put away the Blue Silver Emperor and release your Second Martial Soul."
God King Tang San did as instructed, putting away the Blue Silver Emperor in his right hand and extending his left hand, whereupon a black Clear Sky Hammer appeared in his palm.
Looking at the familiar hammer, he finally felt a little better.
Although the Clear Sky Hammer doesn't have any Soul Ring attached yet, the Twin Martial Souls possessed by this body are indeed real. As long as he cultivates slowly in the future, he will eventually regain his powerful strength.
The staff resumed recording the data.
" The Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul is being released normally; the Martial Soul structure is stable."
No obvious conflict was found between the Twin Martial Souls, and both Martial Soul systems are functioning normally.
Another staff member, after reviewing the soul's information, reported, "The soul and body are stably integrated, mental activity is normal, and no rejection has been detected so far."
Ruan Mei compared several sets of data together and then had God King Tang San complete a simple test of his physical movements and Soul Power control.
With the completion of the last test, all the data finally stabilized.
Looking at the results on the tablet, Ruan Mei nodded slightly. "It seems the experiment was a success. The artificial body can normally support an independent soul, and the Blue Silver Emperor and the Clear Sky Hammer have both been successfully fused. At least for now, no obvious problems have been found."
Her tone remained calm, but the researchers standing beside her were already excited.
"It's a success! It's really a success!"
"An artificial body, soul transfer, and Twin Martial Souls transplant—all succeeded on the first try!"
Several staff members couldn't help but cheer, and some even excitedly high-fived their colleagues. The researcher who had been operating the equipment repeatedly checked the experimental report, and after confirming that the data was correct, he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
They were originally researchers assigned by Interastral Peace Corporation to assist Ruan Mei. Being able to participate in a project of this caliber was already a rare opportunity. Now, having witnessed the entire experimental process firsthand, this experience alone would be enough to make their colleagues envious upon returning to the company.
After all, that's Nguyen Mai from the Genius Society!
Countless researchers in the universe would kill for the chance to conduct research with her.
Now they have not only entered Ruan Mei's laboratory, but also participated in her research projects. Even if they are only responsible for recording data, they will have something to brag about when they leave.
Outside the laboratory, Ning Rongrong looked at the excited staff inside, somewhat puzzled.
She nudged Lin Yuan with her elbow and asked curiously, "Brother Yuan, why are they so happy? It's just creating a body for Tang San, right? Sister Ruan Mei wasn't that excited when the experiment succeeded."
Lin Yuan explained with a smile, " Rongrong, you don't know Ms. Ruan Mei's status in the universe. She's a member of the Genius Society, and Emanator who has been favored by the Aeon of Erudition. Let alone these ordinary researchers, even the company's senior management has to be very polite if they want to invite her to participate in a project."
Ning Rongrong blinked, seemingly not fully understanding yet.
Lin Yuan continued, "Let me put it this way, being able to participate in research under an Emanator of Erudition is an extremely rare experience in itself. If it were me, I would definitely brag about it to my acquaintances when I got back. Not to mention that they personally participated in a successful experiment today, so of course they're happy."
Ning Rongrong then understood and couldn't help but glance at Ruan Mei in the laboratory again.
That woman, who seemed so gentle and spoke so calmly, actually held such an astonishing position.
Nguyen Mai herself did not react much to the researchers' cheers.
She simply saved the experimental data, retrieved the previous data on Artificial Martial Soul, and said to the staff member next to her, "Now that the first case was successful, we can begin preparing for the second experiment."
The staff immediately stopped smiling and listened attentively to her instructions.
"This time, we'll use the same Clear Sky Hammer sample to construct another Martial Soul, and then conduct a fusion test on an ordinary person without Martial Soul. I want to confirm whether this technology can break free from the original bloodline limitations, allowing people without Martial Soul to also obtain Martial Soul."
"Understood, Ms. Nguyen Mai! We'll prepare immediately."
The staff immediately began recording the new experimental requirements.
However, God King Tang San, who had just sat up from the testing chamber, was stunned when he heard these words.
"Wait! What did you just say?"
Nguyen Mai looked up at him.
God King Tang San pointed at the Clear Sky Hammer information on the screen, his face full of disbelief, and asked, "You're going to transplant the Clear Sky Hammer to someone else? And an ordinary person without Martial Soul?"
Ruan Mei nodded. "Yes. We have verified that the Clear Sky Hammer can be used normally in the new body. The next step is to test whether it can be fused with someone who does not have the Clear Sky Sect bloodline."
Upon hearing this, God King Tang San couldn't hold back any longer.
"Absurd! Utterly absurd!"
He stood up abruptly, angrily saying, " The Clear Sky Hammer is the most important inherited Martial Soul of my Clear Sky Sect, the number one Tool Martial Soul in the world! How dare you casually transplant it to someone else?"
Nguyen Mai simply looked at him without saying a word.
God King Tang San became more and more excited as he spoke.
" The Clear Sky Hammer is so precious; how can just anyone be qualified to possess it? You actually want those lowly commoners who don't even have Martial Soul to obtain the Clear Sky Hammer? This is an insult to my Clear Sky Sect! This God King will never allow it..."
"Aaaaaaah!"
Before he could finish speaking, a familiar electric current suddenly surged through his body.
God King Tang San's body jerked violently, and his body, which had just stood up, fell to the ground again. He clutched his chest tightly with both hands and let out a painful scream.
"Ahhh! Stop! Stop now!"
He had just recovered from the previous electric shock, and he didn't expect to be shocked again so soon.
The staff nearby stopped what they were doing and looked at the experimental subject lying on the ground, convulsing.
The Golden Dragon King stood not far away with his arms crossed, and upon seeing this, he couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Hahaha! Kid, it seems you can't stand not being electrified for a day!"
Lin Yuan was also somewhat amused and exasperated.
This guy had already suffered a loss once, but as soon as the Clear Sky Hammer was mentioned, he immediately forgot his current predicament.
A moment later, the current finally stopped.
God King Tang San lay on the ground, trembling all over, his breathing becoming rapid.
The research assistant put away the controller and slowly walked up to him.
"Product Manager Tang San, please watch your words."
God King Tang San struggled to raise his head and glared at him fiercely.
The assistant, however, remained unperturbed and continued, "None of the staff involved in the research, including myself, possess Martial Soul. Although we are not Soul Master, we can still participate in the research based on our own knowledge and skills."
He looked down at Tang San, his tone becoming stern.
"You just kept saying that people without Martial Soul are lowly commoners, but the body you're using now, and your proud Blue Silver Emperor and Clear Sky Hammer, were precisely created by us people without Martial Soul."
God King Tang San opened his mouth, but didn't know how to refute it.
The assistant pointed to the testing device on his body and added, "Since you've accepted the company's research and development services, please have some awareness of the product's purpose. Don't say things without thinking, and certainly don't insult our researchers."
After saying that, he didn't bother to pay any more attention to Tang San and turned back to his work station.
God King Tang San lay on the ground, staring intently at his assistant's departing figure, his face terrifyingly pale.
Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!
How dare a mortal without even Martial Soul lecture this God King like this!
In my previous life, this kind of person wouldn't even have been qualified to stand in front of me and speak!
But now, he could only lie on the ground, watching helplessly as the other party left, completely manipulated by them, not daring to utter a single word of rebuttal.
God King Tang San gritted his teeth, his anger almost uncontrollable.
How dare a mere Interastral Peace Corporation and a group of mortals without Martial Soul humiliate me like this!
Just wait!
Once I, the God King, regain my strength and ascend to my Godhood once more, I will make you repay a hundredfold for all the humiliation you suffered today!
You... have all already chosen your own paths to death!
