I attained immortality in the real world.

Suzhou, Eternal Laboratory.

Meng You activated the Immortal Exile Experiment Model and arrived in front of a body that was in the second realm of consciousness.

Instantly, more than a dozen miniature robotic bees spread out around, taking pictures from all directions and transmitting the captured images to various gathering venues.

Fang Xin and the others gathered in a small cabin in the woods, which contained only a wooden tea table.

There were five futons, and three men and one woman were seated in four seats. There was an empty teacup on the table and an empty futon on the floor.

They drank tea, chatted idly, discussed the past, cultivation, and longevity, passing the time while waiting for the Immortal Exam to begin. Once the Immortal Exam started, they instantly fell silent again.

Suddenly, Fang Xin's bracelet lit up with a faint light, and the smart device projected the scene outside the door, showing Chen Jing already outside the cabin in the woods.

Fang Xin gestured for the smart assistant to open the door, revealing a slight smile, and said, "The last fellow Daoist has arrived! The timing is just right, the Immortal Extermination Experiment has just reached a crucial moment."

Chen Jing was delayed for half a day while going to the Heavenly Dao Discussion with the Supreme Emperor. Before leaving, Meng You's model had not yet been inspected. He should be able to witness the success or failure of the Immortal's experiment in time.

Arriving at the cabin in the woods at the address given by Fang Xin, the door opened automatically, revealing Yao Jing, Lai Ming, and two other unfamiliar strangers inside.

He nodded to everyone: "I'm a step late, fellow Daoists, please forgive me!"

Yao Jing glanced at Chen Jing, paused, and said, "I'm just curious, what is it that's so important that you'd be willing to risk missing the immortality experiment to do it?"

Chen Jing didn't hide anything. The secret wealth of the Eternal Laboratory was something that the Myriad Forms Laboratory simply couldn't swallow, and even if they did, it would be very difficult to digest.

They needed to choose partners, but they also needed to carefully select teammates, hence the two words: "Yu Hua!"

Yao Jing's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and she was about to ask if it was Yu Hua, the person she thought he was from the same era as her great-grandmother.

Fang Xin clearly understood Chen Jing's intention. She raised her teacup to indicate that he should sit down first, and interrupted, "The Immortal Extermination Experiment is about to reach a critical step. The other two friends will be introduced later."

Chen Jing walked to the empty prayer mat and sat down, nodding: "Alright! Perhaps I'll be fortunate enough to witness a scene that changes the world."

"........."

The 3D projection light screen is activated. Light and shadow intertwine and instantly cover the entire space.

The intelligent sprite uses robotic bees to scan and replicate every detail of the Eternal Laboratory, as if moving the laboratory to a cabin in the woods.

The audience can watch the experiment of the banished immortal up close, and even replay it repeatedly, without missing the slightest movement.

Although cultivators from various places and major investors were not gathered in one place, they all witnessed this scene together through the instruments.

Under the illusory light screen, Meng You suddenly looked up at the miniature monitoring robot bee, his eyes seemingly meeting everyone's gaze through the light screen.

He slowly began to speak: "I don't know how many fellow Daoists are watching me, but this is certainly the most complete gathering ever, since this experiment is related to longevity."

"I don't know when it started, but the entire race has been pursuing immortality. But for the human race, survival is not about the survival of individuals, so why pursue immortality?"

"Survival and reproduction are enough for the race to continue. When it gets cold, we evolve our fur. If we want to survive on land, we evolve our nostrils to the back of our heads. Living in accordance with the laws of nature is not so bad, it just means we are not human."

"Humans are only human when they separate themselves from animals. From that moment on, humanity began to climb a peak shrouded in mist." "Many paths diverge under the mist. People from the past did not want their descendants to repeat their mistakes, so they created inheritance, writing, and education, thus finding the right path."

"Following this right path, we finally saw the mountain, but it was the limit of what we could reach."

"In order to climb mountains, humans began to use external aids, cooperated with each other to form teams, and finally reached the foot of the mountain."

"The road ahead is just repetition. People will repeat the paths their predecessors have walked, or explore other paths to the foot of the mountain, but they will always be stuck at the foot of the mountain."

"It seems that only through immortality and evolution can one accumulate wisdom and knowledge to a higher level and cross the foot of the mountain to begin climbing."

"If the experiment on the banished immortals is successful by chance, regardless of past favors or grudges, I hope that the knowledge and wisdom you have acquired can be preserved. If it fails, just consider it as the words of a clown!"

An invitation is extended to everyone; the secret to immortality is given away with a single click.

This is the mindset a leader must possess: to unite all forces that can be united, to measure an individual by evil, but never by evil of a group.

If the secret of the method of immortality is kept secret and instead used for exchanging benefits with a clear price, and one is cautious in every aspect, then the measures taken in the Ghost Realm are simply insufficient to achieve anything.

However, if a group is formed with immortality as its label, the group naturally needs a leader. In the absence of anyone with merit, the person who provides the method of immortality will naturally take on the role.

Merit, like benevolence, righteousness, loyalty, and filial piety—things that cannot be seen—is worthless in the eyes of those who do not know how to utilize them, but in the eyes of those who do know how to utilize them, they are priceless.

Looking at Meng You, who possessed the qualities of a ruthless leader, everyone raised their opinion of him to a higher level. Regardless of the success or failure of the Immortal Extermination Experiment, at least he didn't make any mistakes at the beginning.

"........."

Having said that, Meng You ignored the audience and went to a life support device to prepare for the final steps of the banished immortal's journey.

There are only two suitable test subjects. If the first experiment fails, there is still a chance. However, if the same process is repeated hundreds of times, the final result will be the same. Therefore, even if the first experiment fails, it is necessary to provide parameters for the second experiment.

Meng You connected with Taihuang Huangzengtian, and his spiritual energy was poured into a rhombus-shaped crystal. At the same time, he entered a meditative state and guided the spiritual energy into his remaining body.

[A divine manifestation!]

The spirit of Mengyou constructs a model, and the spirit manifests itself in reality through instruments. Electromagnetic interweaving acts like a defibrillator on the heart, and the spirit influences the disabled body.

Activate the remaining inner landscape, or rather, based on the traces from before death, to once again weave together the imprint of consciousness, serving as a channel for the celestial spirit to possess and descend.

Now that the Eternal Lab has been officially removed from the list, Fang Xin has received the data model of the banished immortal obtained by hacking into the Eternal Lab's intelligent spirit.

After a quick analysis by the intelligent sprite, it shook its head and said, "The core of the laboratory is cultivators, and the core of the Immortal Extermination Experiment is also cultivators. This data model only has the function of guiding spiritual power. It is useful, but not very useful."

"The most important aspect of the Immortal Exemplar Experiment is the mental model, which should only exist in Meng You's mind."

No one was surprised by this. The core of their own laboratory was in their own minds. The intelligent sprite had mastered 99.99% of the data, but the missing 0.01% would render it useless waste.

You should be grateful if someone voluntarily offers you the secret to immortality, but if you fail to protect yourself properly and it is stolen beforehand, then you can only blame your own lack of skill.

Yao Jing suddenly spoke up: "That corpse—it's reacting!" (End of Chapter)
