Lin Yaodong: Only Business, No Feelings!

Anyone would go crazy if they stayed there too long. Wang Teng hasn't lost his mind yet, so his mental fortitude is already quite strong.

Of course, in addition to inner strength, necessary external support is also indispensable, such as chatting with some cute and beautiful girls from time to time, talking about life, and discussing ideals.

Thanks to the benefits of time reset, Wang Teng was able to easily avoid a large number of pitfalls, and his favorability rating skyrocketed.

But that's all. Talking about life and ideals is nothing special.

But if you want to take it a step further, like exchanging bodily fluids or having close physical contact, you'll get killed, and you might not even be able to beat them.

Previously, it was because of his low cultivation level; now that his strength has increased, he is even more hesitant to fight with others.

Once he makes a move, his Twelfth Layer of the Body Tempering Stage stage will no longer be a secret.

You, a mere outer disciple, have quietly reached the Twelfth Layer of the Body Tempering Stage. The entire sect is absolutely furious.

Wang Teng might just type GG.

Even if the Soft Bone Rabbit is weak, it is still Soul Beast, which is very different from an ordinary domestic rabbit. An ordinary rabbit is worth at most a few dozen copper coins, but Soul Beast is different. Even the weakest Soul Beast is worth at least one silver coin.

After all, even after Soul Beast dies, its body will still retain some energy. Not to mention Soul Master, even ordinary people would benefit greatly from consuming it.

I won't eat Soul Beast more than three times a month Qingming Festival. There's no way around it, it's just too expensive, my wallet can't handle it!

Law, companion, wealth, land.

Cultivation cannot be separated from these four things, but Qingming is just an ordinary person and doesn't really have any of these four things.

In terms of methods and techniques of cultivation, there is little difference between commoners and nobles; neither has them. They both use the most primitive meditation to enhance their Soul Power. Qingming even has a slight advantage in this regard because of his diligence.

Why do I feel a sense of sadness in my heart? (⋟⋞)

"Lü" means companion or guide on the path of cultivation. In this respect, Qingming, who comes from a commoner background, is much less capable. Although he is still studying at the primary Soul Master Academy, he should graduate in a month at most.

Moreover, how can a junior academy, which is only for commoners, compare to a high-level Soul Master Academy, which is only for nobles? There's no need to compare things like teaching staff.

The principal of a junior Soul Master Academy is only Soul Ancestor Grandmaster, and even then, he's the highest-ranking one. In contrast, any teacher at a high-level Soul Master Academy is Soul Ancestor or even Soul King, and the principal is at least Soul Saint.

In terms of romantic relationships, Qingming was completely outmatched by her peers who came from aristocratic backgrounds.

Wealth, land.

I can't say anymore, it's all tears!

(╥_╥)

Qingming knew very well that, according to normal cultivation methods, he would probably only reach the Soul Elder level by the time he died.

As a time traveler, Qingming could not bear to die such an ordinary life. He had no choice in his previous life, but in this life, Qingming has only one goal: to become an immortal god.

Therefore, Qingming did not place his hopes on cultivation from the beginning, but instead focused on research—researching Soul Master, Martial Soul, Soul Power, Soul Beast, and everything related to extraordinary power.

There are quite a few Soul Master in this world who do theoretical work, but their research is mostly based on empirical studies.

For example, the habits of Soul Beast, the bottlenecks of Soul Master, how to better improve Soul Power, how many years of Soul Ring Soul Master should absorb, and how to determine the age of Soul Beast.

Regarding research, Qingming haven't seen a single report that explains what Martial Soul or Soul Power actually is.

Perhaps some people have studied this, but Qingming simply doesn't know it.

Unfortunately, knowledge isn't as readily available in this world as it was in the original one; in this world, knowledge has always been monopolized.

Receiving an education is a privilege reserved for nobles and Soul Master. As for commoners, those who can even recognize their own names are already considered highly cultured.

During those six years at the beginner Soul Master Academy, did you think Qingming was learning anything about Soul Master and Soul Beast?

No, during these six years, Qingming mainly studied the world's writing system, history, geography, and some common knowledge about the Soul Master World.

Regarding knowledge about Soul Master and Soul Beast, Qingming learned very little in class. The teachers often only touched on the basics and only taught very superficial things, always glossing over the key points.

The section on Soul Beast only covers some common Soul Beast, and the information provided is relatively basic. More advanced topics, such as their weaknesses and how to hunt Soul Beast efficiently, are not covered by the instructor.

Some teachers hesitate to share their knowledge because of limited expertise; others simply don't want to impart such advanced knowledge to a group of familiar strangers. After all, many have risked their lives to acquire knowledge about Soul Master and Soul Beast. Why should they share such precious information with you?

Therefore, I learned very little here during the Qingming.

Mingdu had to rely on himself for many things. Apart from attending classes, Qingming spent most of his time in the library during the day, and Qingming had read almost all the books in the college library.

Besides his own college's library, Qingming was a frequent visitor to the libraries of several other junior colleges in the city, and Qingming even often went to bookstores run by nobles.

Of course, the nobles weren't as charitable as the academy; they charged for reading books there, and Qingming spent almost half of his monthly income on that.

This world truly exemplifies the value of knowledge.

Otherwise, I could eat at least ten meals of Soul Beast every month during the Qingming.

An hour later, the Soft Bone Rabbit had been completely dissected by Qingming.

To be honest, Qingming at this moment is more like a cook than a researcher.

In fact, the so-called research was just a side effect; it was nothing more than dissecting the Soft Bone Rabbit and then probing the level of Soul Power in various parts of its body.

As for figuring out what Soul Power actually is, how it comes into being, and how Soul Power Soul Beast generate their Soul Power...

Is this something you can figure out by dissecting a few rabbits on the side?

Qingming didn't think things were that simple. The problem that had plagued Douluo Continent for thousands of years couldn't possibly be solved by him with just a few casual attempts.

Perhaps we'll figure these things out by Qingming in the future, but it's still a long way off for Qingming!

Pursuing immortality through science is not so simple; funding, manpower, direction, and luck are all indispensable.

Qingming can't produce any of these things now.

Although he couldn't produce these materials, Qingming didn't just sit idly by. Instead, he seized the available resources and researched whatever he could.

Whether or not there are results is not important; what is important is scientific thinking and habits.

This is Qingming's greatest advantage, and Qingming only possibility of reaching the pinnacle of this world; it is also Qingming's greatest treasure.

Scientific thinking and habits should be practiced regularly. It's a minor issue if your skills become rusty over time; the real problem is if your mind is not used for a long time and gets influenced by the Douluo Continent worldview, then there's even less hope for Qingming.

Moreover, Qingming has not come up with nothing so far. After so long of research, although he has little funding, he has not gone astray in his direction. At least in terms of Soul Beast and Soul Ring, Qingming has made some progress.

Take the Soft Bone Rabbit as an example.

Normally, the Soft Bone Rabbit releases the most Soul Power from its heart, followed by its limbs, then its teeth, and the rest is released relatively evenly.

If Qingming were stronger and more sensitive to Soul Power, he could make a more precise division of the Soul Power release pattern of the Soft Bone Rabbit.

Furthermore, when the Soft Bone Rabbit is injured, a large amount of Soul Power will gather at the injured area in a short period of time until the wound heals.

Regarding this, Qingming speculated that Soul Power might be related to blood. To verify this, Qingming bought another Soft Bone Rabbit and conducted a verification experiment.

While Qingming was drawing all the blood from the Soft Bone Rabbit, he was simultaneously infusing it with a prepared Life Solution to keep it alive for a short period of time.

Finally, after Qingming drained all the blood from the Soft Bone Rabbit's body, its Soul Power remained above nine levels. Although there was some loss of Soul Power, it was clear that blood was not the main cause of the Soul Power.

In addition, the extracted blood also contained trace amounts of Soul Power, but this Soul Power quickly dissipated.

Qingming had a guess about these Soul Power Soul Power: they were merely passively attached to the blood and were carried out of the body along with the blood. The reason why these Soul Power dissipated so quickly was that they would dissipate rapidly after leaving the binding of the Soul Power Soul Power source.

Of course, due to the lack of experimental Xiao Bai, I could only temporarily put the experiment on hold, write down my guesses, and finally hastily draw the conclusion that blood was not the main cause of Soul Power.

Looking at the Soft Bone Rabbit whose heart was still beating on the control panel, Qingming took a deep breath.

The appetizers are over; it's time to get down to business.

It has to succeed, so I can have the money to do experiments.

First, Qingming cut off the limbs of the Soft Bone Rabbit. The Soft Bone Rabbit injected with Life Solution No. 7 cannot be eaten indiscriminately, so its limbs had to be cut off before injecting all sorts of random reagents. This way, even if the experiment failed, he wouldn't get nothing at all. At least, rabbit legs are quite delicious. It's just a pity about the spicy rabbit head.

Eating the Soul Beast can increase your Soul Power by a small amount; even a mosquito's leg is still meat!

Who told Qingming to be so poor? He wished he could spend every penny like it was gold.

First, stop the bleeding and Nuibari the wounds of the Soft Bone Rabbit during the Qingming. All the wounds were stitched up and put back in their proper positions. Then, 10 ml of its optimized Life Solution No. 7 was injected into the rabbit through the heart.

Life Solution is a life-giving solution that Qingming extracted from plant-type Soul Beast. This solution is extremely beneficial to plant-type Soul Beast.

It is equally effective for ordinary animals and Soul Beast. When Soul Beast drinks the Life Solution, a powerful life force will be unleashed within its body.

However, this solution also has significant side effects. All ordinary animals developed organ and tissue fibrosis, and even the Soul Beast were the same. However, the Soul Beast fared much better, with this condition appearing on nearly nine out of ten, while the remaining one or more were healthy and without any abnormalities.

After multiple Qingming, the Life Solution can now be used on ordinary animals. When Life Solution No. 7 is used on ordinary animals, the probability of organ and tissue vegetativeization has dropped to below 1%.

According to Qingming's judgment, the probability of Soul Beast turning into a plant should be infinitely close to zero. However, Qingming is relatively poor and has no way to verify through a large number of experiments whether Life Solution No. 7 will cause Soul Beast to turn into plants.

After injecting the Life Solution into Soft Bone Rabbit No. 13, Qingming put it aside.

Life Solution No. 7 does not contain much life force. In essence, Life Solution No. 7 is a product that has been purified from the Initial Life Solution and then diluted dozens of times.

Although the Life Solution No. 7 does not contain as much vitality as the Initial Life Solution, it also does not have the side effects of the Initial Life Solution, such as causing organ tissue to become vegetative.

If No. 13 No. 13 is injected with the Initial Life Solution, its injuries will heal immediately, but it will die quickly within minutes as the fibrosis process extends from its internal organs to its body surface.

"No. 13 No. 13, you'd better survive! My future research funding depends entirely on you."

After saying Qingming took four rabbit legs and went out to prepare a meal.

No. 13: ╥╥

An hour later, Qingming returned to the control panel. Looking at the still-alive No. 13, Qingming knew that he was close to success.

Normally, a dissected laboratory rabbit should lose all vital signs within half an hour.

And it is still alive now, which is undoubtedly thanks to Life Solution No. 7.

Qingming, I observed all twelve wounds on No. 13's body. The smaller wounds were already starting to scab over.

"Sigh, why can't I control my mouth? After No. 13 survives, there will be other experiments to be conducted. Isn't this just asking for trouble?"

The numbing effect was almost worn off; No. 13's eyes were slightly open, and his heart was beating slowly and weakly.

Qingming injected another 3ml of Life Solution No. 7 into No. 13 through the abdominal cavity. Then, he took out a homemade IV bottle, added 300ml of prepared Nutrient Solution to it, and slowly injected it into No. 13's body through the vein, just like when people in the previous life went to the hospital for IV drips when they were sick.

"I've done everything I could. As long as I'm still alive tomorrow, the No. 13, it means I can use my Life Solution No. 7 at the lowest level. Then, I won't have to worry about money anymore."

I'm so tired of this kind of day during Qingming. A rabbit has to be split in two, with one half for food and the other half for experiments.

Because of funding issues, he has already shut down many projects. Qingming has many thoughts and speculations in his mind, but he can't do anything about it. He is really feeling Qingming to the point of despair.

We're so poor!

If Qingming had enough funds for himself, he could definitely research and develop products that would be useful to him. If he succeeded in researching some of these things, many of them could even overturn the entire Douluo Continent.
