I attained immortality in the real world.

Chapter 150 Changes in the Present World
Yutu-1: Gene Optimization Fluid.

It will bring about a comprehensive improvement in human strength, energy, thinking, and lifespan.

Miraculous medicine!

For ancient monks...

This is a true elixir, one that even the Queen Mother of the West wouldn't trade for.

Ascend!

If you put in the effort, you might still have a chance.

However, elixirs that could defy basic common sense and overcome the barriers of the human body were not within the ancient cultivators' imagination.

Of course, there was also self-cultivation in ancient times, but it was not a method of individual cultivation, but rather a cultivation based on the entire race.

Unlike other animals that undergo natural selection, humans, standing at the top of the food chain, make choices that largely reflect their own will.

Hundreds of millions of humans are constantly approaching the first realm of humanity by selecting reproductive partners and optimizing the human race.

The advantage of this method is that everyone is practicing, resulting in a high margin for error; the disadvantage is that the practice speed is extremely slow.

It will probably take thousands or even tens of thousands of years for the entire human race to achieve a breakthrough.

It wasn't until the advent of modern biotechnology that the path of physical cultivation was able to break the deadlock.

The human body has three treasures: essence, qi, and spirit. Among them, essence is the foundation. The qi cultivated through qi cultivation is transformed from essence, and spirit is also nourished by the qi generated from essence.

Physical cultivation breaks through limits.

It has the greatest impact on the overall improvement.

If it weren't for the fact that ordinary people would experience side effects after breaking through, then one could naturally drive the breakthrough of Qi and spirit.

But it is precisely because this is the foundation of a person that self-cultivation cannot break through its limits through one's own practice.

Today, individual cultivators can reach the first realm of perfect human-celestial cultivation. If the restrictions on genetic modification could be lifted and applied to newborns, it could even elevate the entire human race to a higher level.

"........."

Wanxiang Laboratory.

Inside a closed room, there was only a solitary crystal capsule.

Chen Jing first cleaned himself of all the filth inside and out, then took off his clothes and entered the crystal chamber.

"Cuckoo!"

The nutrient solution quickly filled the crystal chamber.

The liquid is filled into the mouth and nose, and then poured into the lungs through the mouth and nose. The high-oxygen liquid allows people to breathe freely and exchange waste gases while underwater.

Immediately afterwards, a sharp pain came from my arm.

The gene-optimized liquid enters the body through the blood vessels, and the energy channels in the dantian (lower abdomen) circulate, quickly spreading the medicinal power throughout the limbs and bones.

His body gradually lost control, but his consciousness remained undisturbed. A sharp, intense pain struck, reshaping his body.

“Physical cultivation is different from spiritual cultivation and qi cultivation. It cultivates a real, tangible flesh and blood body.”

"Breaking through the limits is the hardest!"

"It requires the help of external forces, just like building a house and wanting to change the foundation."

"Either lay a solid foundation when the house is first built, or have the capability to replace the roof beams so that the foundation replacement does not damage the house."

"Once the gene optimization solution is prepared, the operation is not difficult. Just focus on the qi and concentrate your mind. No further action is required."

Chen Jing's consciousness returned to a meditative state, and the energy channels in his dantian became slightly warm. He then stopped paying attention to the changes in his body.

"........."

outside the laboratory.

Researchers are still working at high speed.

Xu Zui is arranging the testing process after breaking through the limits. After Qi cultivation breaks through the limits, the model of the first experimental subject needs to be updated. After the first realm is perfected, the data still needs to be updated. For the simulation to be accurate, it requires abnormal data and a huge amount of computing power.

Wanxiang Labs has over a billion yuan in funding, half of which is used to purchase various equipment and the other half to purchase virtual computing power.

The Qi and meridian diagram was integrated into the model, and Wanxiang's cold voice rang out: [Laboratory One, meridian and acupoint diagrams have also been loaded.]

A semi-transparent light curtain popped up.

The data is presented as countless lines of code, which can be referenced as experimental parameters, but humans absolutely cannot remember them, so there is no concern about the leakage of experimental data.

not far away.

After finishing her official business at Wanxiang Company, Yaozhi didn't rest. She contacted various laboratories to exchange information and organized the collected and fragmented information into intelligence.

Chen Jing spends most of his time in the virtual world, so it's rare for him to spend so much time in reality. He takes this opportunity to exchange the intelligence he has compiled in person.

The cultivation world and the real world are one illusory and the other real. They seem unrelated but actually influence each other. Information can be exchanged to a certain extent and used as parameters for deduction.

"........."

[Click! 】

A day later, the crystal hatch suddenly opened.

Chen Jing walked slowly out of the cabin without stumbling at all.

He spat out the nutrient solution in his mouth: "Essence transforms into Qi, Qi transforms into spirit, spirit returns to emptiness, and the cultivation of essence, Qi, spirit, and life has all reached a certain level. However, to reach the realm of Heaven and Man, further adjustments are needed?"

After saying that, he put on his clothes, pushed open the door, and strode out.

Outside the door, several researchers stared in disbelief as the gene-optimized fluid seemed to revert the infants to their normal state.

Need to learn to walk!
Learn to control your body!

How is it any different from a baby who is born knowing how to walk, to dress and walk on its own?
Chen Jing stretched his limbs and looked at the experimental personnel who were about to be provided with treatment, saying, "The condition is alright. Let's test the body data directly and update the data of Experimental Subject No. 1."

"In addition, I want the celestial research data of Lunar Palace Biotechnology. I can buy it or exchange it with technology."

Xu Zui nodded and replied, "The data from the Celestial Beings research is classified as exchange material, so there's no problem. We can purchase it now."

The man in white had the stretcher moved away and said, "Okay! No problem, we can prepare it right away!"

The Wanxiang Laboratory has undergone updates and iterations, and now has a wider range of testing instruments.

The tests are actually faster; you don't need to hit the target hard, you just need to unleash some force and the instrument can detect the relevant data.

A moment.

Chen Jing then came out of the testing room and compiled all the test data.

A mechanical voice sounded, announcing, "Subject One, after using the Yutu-1 gene optimization solution..."
"All physical stats have improved, with average attribute value increasing by 1% and potential cap increasing by 30%."

"Specific data is as follows: muscle..."

"The most significant improvement is in theoretical lifespan, with a theoretical upper limit of 180 years."

【…】

Under normal circumstances, Chen Jing's lifespan is only 148 years, which is not much different from other experimental subjects using the Yutu-1 rabbit.

By cultivating the two realms of sexuality, slowing down the activity of all the body's cells, and entering a semi-dormant state for health preservation, one can extend their lifespan by thirty-two years.

"Living to 108 years old is not difficult for cultivators, but once they reach the second realm, they would never stop cultivating and exploring just to live a few more years."

Chen Jing didn't care about the mere changes in his lifespan over a few decades. A hundred years, two hundred years—compared to mountains, rivers, sun, and moon, he was nothing more than a mayfly that lives only a day.

The benefits of physical cultivation are comprehensive, and not just limited to lifespan.

He spoke, "Myriad Forms! Predict how long it will take me to cultivate my primordial spirit?"

Wanxiang used part of its computing power to deduce and quickly replied: "If there are no bottlenecks in the cultivation of the primordial spirit, it will still take half a year to complete the cultivation."

"Compared to the three years before using the gene optimization solution, it saved two and a half years."
