Dreams and fists shatter the sky

Chapter 239: Chapter 239: Countering the Extinction Power

"What's the solution?" Ye An asked urgently.

Liu Dahu replied nonchalantly, "I'm not boasting."

"Actually, I've been the chief weapon refiner of the human race since thousands of years ago."

"But later, I lost interest in refining weapons."

"Refining over and over, ultimately just makes other people rich."

"I want to refine humans!"

When Liu Dahu mentioned refining humans, his eyes sparkled.

Ye An's body tensed, feeling like a lamb entering a tiger's den.

He stammered, "Refine... refine humans?"

"How would that work?"

Liu Dahu quickly explained, "What is refining weapons?"

"It's about taking a bunch of raw materials and some runes, rearranging and combining them through smelting, and ultimately achieving an effect where 1+1=10."

"My concept of refining humans is similar."

"Treat a person as a material, add some external items, throw them into the furnace, and re-smelt them to enhance certain traits of the person."

"Including myself, not to laugh at me, what I desire most is not power but immortality!"

Liu Dahu said solemnly, "In the same realm, the human lifespan is shorter than all the other races."

"To be brutal, this might be a good thing. Unlike other races, where top experts hold onto their positions without contributing, human experts will eventually leave when their time is up."

"But who is willing?"

"Who doesn't want immortality?"

"You, as a young person, wouldn't understand. The significance of immortality isn't about living longer but not having worries."

"Most people are impatient because time is limited. Ordinary people have only sixty or seventy years to live, and they need to earn enough money in the first few decades and leave some time to enjoy."

"But capitalists exploit this by turning people into beasts, constantly telling you to work a bit harder, and the finish line is in sight. Soon you'll get promoted, get a raise, and so on..."

"Eventually, you work until old age without retirement, your flesh and blood becoming nutrients for this societal machine."

"But when you know you can live for three hundred or five hundred years, what then?"

"You definitely won't be in a hurry to achieve something in just a few decades."

"There's plenty of time. If you don't earn money today, you can try tomorrow. I have many more years ahead."

"The truth is, without anxiety and internal conflict, human potential will truly surface."

"That's one of the meanings of immortality!"

Ye An shook his head, "No."

"I don't think so." freeweɓnøvel.com

"Humans are an insatiable species. Even if you had a lifespan of a hundred thousand years, if your inner strength isn't strong enough, you'd still be anxious about what will happen in a hundred thousand years."

"Unless it's eternal life."

"I think it might be more than that; even after achieving eternal life, there would still be worries."

"The root cause is the mind."

Ye An countered seriously, "If a person's mind isn't steadfast and strong, they can never find peace or satisfaction. Troubles will continue to follow."

"Master Liu, don't you understand this?"

Liu Dahu looked at Ye An and suddenly sneered, "Self-righteous ideology?"

"What?" Ye An frowned.

Liu Dahu replied lightly, "Well, you haven't attended those high-level institutions, so you might not understand."

"Do you know the eternal question in the human academic world?"

"Is the human species more dependent on itself or on external things?"

"Without external assistance, would humans have what they have today?"

Liu Dahu countered, "If humans couldn't use external things, we wouldn't be able to create fire by friction. Our ancestors would still be trapped in that primitive forest, just a group of wild beasts."

"I understand the questions you've been asking me."

"I even thought like that when I was a child."

"But let me ask you, are the cicada armor and boxing gloves external things?" ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

Ye An nodded, "Yes."

"Without these two external items, could you have survived and left the Apocalypse Star?"

"No," Ye An lowered his head.

Liu Dahu said calmly, "You're smart, so you should start thinking."

"Without external assistance, humanity would never have reached where it is today."

"Think carefully about this issue, and then answer it with the rigor of a scientific paper."

"Not with vague statements about inner strength."

He snorted, "Let's get down to business."

"I was about to say, the method of refining humans might help you counter the side effects of Three Realms Unity."

"And I think it's quite simple."

"Counteracting."

Liu Dahu continued, "From what I know about the Extinction Power of Three Realms Unity."

"The Source Quality Power, divided into three parts: Elements, Spirit, and Body."

"These three elements create everything."

"Three Realms Unity reverses these three elements to ultimately obtain the power to destroy all things."

"I believe providing sufficiently strong Elemental, Spiritual, and Physical power might counteract the Source Quality Power."

"What has sufficiently strong elements, spirit, and physical power?"

Liu Dahu said, "Evolution Liquid."

"Ultimate Evolution Liquid!"

"Since you've reached the Fifth Realm now, I can't be sure if the Evolution Liquid for transitioning from Four to Five will be effective."

"But it doesn't matter; we can experiment."

"Come."

He glanced at Ye An.

Ye An quickly created three bottles of Fifth Realm Ultimate Evolution Liquid in the Dream Realm.

Next, Liu Dahu asked Ye An to create the experimental instruments from his lab.

But things became tedious from this point.

To replicate something in the Dream Realm, Ye An needed a deep understanding of it!

He had seen and used Fifth Realm Evolution Liquid, so he could easily replicate it. However, he didn't understand the experimental instruments.

Ye An went out twice to observe and replicated them in the Dream Realm.

But Liu Dahu shook his head and quickly pointed out the deficiencies.

There were problems here, problems there; these instruments were very precise and complex.

Ye An was troubled; last-minute efforts wouldn't produce something satisfactory for Liu Dahu.

He needed to spend time researching the construction of these instruments.

Ye An sighed and said, "I might not be able to start the experiment tonight."

"Don't worry, as agreed, two hours a day," Liu Dahu said lightly.

"When the time is up, you can leave directly."

At this point, Liu Dahu was not anxious at all.

The positions of the parties had reversed.

He needed Ye An, but Ye An also needed his help.

If Liu Dahu didn't want to make it, and ultimately failed to create a countermeasure for the Extinction Power, the loss would be his own.

Ye An was aware of this.

So, although he should have been home by nine, he ended up researching until ten-thirty, finally understanding some key issues before rushing home.

He walked through the dimly lit path and pushed open the brand-new door to his house.

The spacious room was warmly lit by yellow light.

Beautiful Ji Qing was sitting at the dining table in a blue silk robe.

As soon as Ye An entered, seeing her back, he felt inexplicably nervous. He quickly wanted to explain why he came home so late today.

But Ji Qing, after saying "wait," brought out the supper she had prepared herself and asked sweetly, "Were you very busy today?"
