"You are a forensic doctor. Don't you know that this is against the law?" Zhou Wen kept trying to use all sorts of powers in an attempt to break the power that imprisoned his body.
However, it was completely useless. Dr. Soul, who was staring at him from behind, had a sanguine glow in his left eye as though it had shackled his soul.
Zhou Wen couldn't use his Primordial Energy Skills, circulate his Primordial Energy Art, or summon his Companion Beasts. Even the Lost Immortal Sutra that had been automatically circulating seemed to freeze.
However, this didn't make Zhou Wen feel despair. This was because in this extremely harsh environment, there was an unfamiliar yet familiar power growing in his body.
"Laws are made by people. If I'm strong enough, I can make the law. This isn't a problem," Yan Zhen said calmly, but the fervor in his eyes intensified.
"But you aren't strong enough to ignore the law. If you kill me, do you think you can escape the punishment of the law?" Zhou Wen said.
"That's why I got Dr. Soul to take action. Otherwise, a Legendary student like you wouldn't need me to use my Life Soul." Yan Zhen approached Zhou Wen and used his fingers to pry open his eyelids. He carefully looked into his eyes and said, "Even if I dissect you here, no one will know that I've been here, much less know that I dissected you here. Therefore, it's best you answer my questions obediently. What did you do? How did you affect the souls of those students? "
"I've said it before. I don't understand what you mean. I can only sense the aura of the black tree on Wang Lu and company. I don't know anything else, nor did I do anything," Zhou Wen said.
"It's fine. It's fine if you don't want to say it. All I need is a small surgery to know everything about you," Yan Zhen said as he gestured with the scalpel above Zhou Wen's head. As Yan Zhen spoke, he gestured with the scalpel above Zhou Wen's head and said indifferently, "I'll cut open your skull, extract your brain, and read the memories inside. This isn't difficult for Doctor Soul."
"Why are you doing this? What benefits does this bring you? "Zhou Wen asked through gritted teeth. He knew that Yan Zhen wasn't joking.
"Benefits?" Yan Zhen slowly said, "All this while, science and medicine have been unable to resolve the problem of the origins of life. The so-called explanations were also full of loopholes. Life is not a machine, and human consciousness is not a simple intelligent program. How does consciousness come into being? What is its relationship with the body? Can consciousness exist independently without the body? These questions are all very interesting. "
"In order to figure out these questions, you can kill your own kind?" Zhou Wen looked at Yan Zhen as though he was looking at a lunatic.
"Life is short, and we will die sooner or later, but my research is eternal. If my research is successful, and I can extract the consciousness of humans, or rather, the soul, then all humans can obtain eternal life. At that time, I will be the savior of mankind, and all humans will be grateful to me for giving them eternal life. During this period, the sacrifices required by the research institute are also necessary. That is the inevitable result of human progress. "Yan Zhen seemed to be saying something as if it was only natural.
"You're really crazy." Zhou Wen was dumbfounded.
"Are you crazy? That's right. This is a crazy era to begin with. In the past, who would have believed that there were dimensional creatures in this world? Who would have thought that there would be Companion Beasts and those magical powers? In those dimensional zones, there might be true gods. And what I'm doing now is to become a god of mankind, allowing human life to truly belong to them and not be controlled by any other power. Aging, disease, death, and disability will all become history and no longer be a problem that will plague mankind. "
The more Yan Zhen spoke, the more excited he became. "If my research succeeds, all humans will be able to let their souls leave their originally weak bodies at will and enter a higher body. For example, you can use a war chariot as your body. You can also use those powerful dimensional creatures as your body. As long as you are willing, you can have everything. It won't be like now, only having a weak and pitiful body. "
Zhou Wen didn't know if he should call Yan Zhen a genius or a lunatic. He only knew that he was really crazy, and he wasn't willing to become the inevitable sacrifice he mentioned.
"Perhaps what you said makes sense, but unfortunately, there's nothing special about my body. I don't know what you're talking about. Are you sure you want to dissect me?" Zhou Wen calmed down at that moment.
While he was dissecting his body, the familiar yet unfamiliar power was brewing, like an ancient beast hiding under a calm sea.
Zhou Wen knew that the power was his Life Providence, the Sigh of the King, produced by the combination of the Lost Immortal Sutra and his talent.
Ever since he advanced to the Legendary stage, Zhou Wen could sense the existence of the Sigh of the King. The Life Providence seemed to be a part of his body, like he had an additional organ, an existence akin to limbs.
However, before this, Zhou Wen had no idea how to use this new organ in his body. He could sense its existence and knew that it possessed immense power, but he was unable to use it.
Only when his body was restrained by Dr. Soul and he couldn't move an inch did Zhou Wen finally clearly sense the existence of the Sigh of the King and how to use it.
Humans were very strange animals. Most of the time, they would only use the organs they needed. Many organs that they didn't need would degenerate due to prolonged periods of idleness, making them forget how to use them.
A typical human's Life Providence was a passive ability that didn't need to be actively used. However, Zhou Wen's Sigh of the King was clearly different.
When Zhou Wen clearly sensed that the Sigh of the King could be used by him, the power had already begun to spread through his body like an ancient beast occupying his body.
"Scientific research has many uncertainties to begin with. It's inevitable to take the wrong path. After all, this is research to become a god. No matter how many failures there are, they can be forgiven." Yan Zhen's expression turned colder. The scalpel in his left hand was already pressed against Zhou Wen's glabella as he said without any emotion, "Don't worry. I won't let you suffer too much pain. I'll first cut open your skull and expose your pineal gland. Then, I'll do the left side of your brain, followed by the right side of your brain. When your brain is completely cut out, Dr. Soul can use his powers to read the information within …"
As Yan Zhen spoke, the tip of the scalpel shimmered with a crystalline light. Under the control of his slender fingers, it was about to slice into Zhou Wen's skull.
Boom!
At the instant Yan Zhen's fingers moved, the power in Zhou Wen's body that resembled an ancient ferocious beast erupted.
