Once the forbidden gate had been opened, there was no turning back.
Richard had already begun the abyssal experiments, so he had to make this power yield the value it deserved.
If he merely went through the motions, it would not only insult his resolve, but also be irresponsible toward the future.
Soon, new experiments began.
Using Runes, Richard transformed the environmental conditions of Life Editing into all manner of extreme environments.
From searing heat to bitter cold; from high-energy environments to high-energy radiation environments, even high-death-energy environments and high-Decay Radiation environments.
Every change in the environment caused tremendous changes in the final form of evolution.
Richard had underestimated the potential of those seven bloodlines. Even a creature like a human contained, within the life information of its life core, numerous sub-human races from humanity's Evolution Tree.
Not to mention these powerful Magic Beasts, each of which was inherently gifted.
During these evolution experiments, the unexpressed information hidden within the life cores gradually began to reveal itself under the dual effects of Abyss Power and Life Editing.
Characteristics possessed only by various Evolution Tree sub-species continuously emerged throughout the experiments.
However, despite conducting so many experiments, Richard had not carried out large-scale Life Editing on his own body.
As a Wizard Dimension, Richard had a clear understanding of his purpose.
Abyss Power was merely an auxiliary tool for accelerating research. His purpose in conducting evolution experiments was not to directly evolve a perfect form, but to explore the secrets of Life Editing.
While conducting the evolution experiments, his attention had always remained on the changes within the life core.
Every successful evolution experiment brought Richard an abundance of experimental data.
After more than a hundred large and small experiments under extreme and non-extreme conditions, Richard had recorded an entire bookshelf's
