"Did this batch fail again?"
9527 reappeared in the empty black hall and could not help but glance at the dozens of screens suspended in the air.
The images on the screens were almost the same. Shi Gang, Dylon, and the other trainees were all paralyzed on the ground.
After five days of absorbing and not eating or drinking, all the trainees were in an extremely weak state. If this continued, everyone would die.
"Forget it. Send them out and continue with the next batch... Wait a minute!"
9527 sighed and was ready to erase the memories of all the trainees and send them out of the spaceship.
Erase?
It was just an excuse.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, 9527 suddenly glanced at a screen in the corner. A look of shock suddenly appeared on its face, and then it immediately turned into surprise.
"This Earthling... he succeeded?"
9527 stared at the screen, which showed the scene of Ling Jiu sitting cross-legged and frantically absorbing the Dark Bio-energy in the void.
"Looks like he really succeeded?"
9527 was very excited. It even removed the other screens, leaving only the one observing Ling Jiu, and then began to work.
Through the monitoring data fed back from the primary cultivation room, 9527 could clearly "see" that the Dark Bio-energy in Ling Jiu's body was increasing wildly.
"In the primary cultivation room, the Dark Bio-energy in a trainee's body will only continue to decline, and it will not increase.
"Unless..."
9527 was very excited. "Unless this Earthling has found the source of the Dark Bio-energy and absorbed the Dark Bio-energy from the dark universe.
"How many years has it been?
"How many bases?
"How many people participated in the assessment?
"Finally, one succeeded."
Even though 9527 was just an intelligent program and rarely had human emotions, it could not help but be excited at this moment.
"You can let him out now."
9527 gently snapped its fingers, and the ground of the cultivation room where Ling Jiu was slowly rose. Not long after, Ling Jiu reappeared in the hall.
"This is..."
Ling Jiu opened his eyes.
"Congratulations, Ling Jiu."
9527 smiled. "Congratulations on successfully finding the source of the Dark Bio-energy and passing the assessment."
"Is that so?"
Seeing 9527 again, Ling Jiu did not give it a friendly look. This guy almost killed him, and he would never forget that hellish experience.
Perhaps seeing through Ling Jiu's thoughts, 9527 smiled and explained.
"I know you have a lot of complaints in your heart. Actually, even if you didn't pass the test, I wouldn't have killed you. Instead, I would have erased your memories of the past few days and sent you away!"
"Won't be erased?"
Ling Jiu was stunned.
"Killing for no reason means nothing to me. I'm just testing you according to the program!"
9527 explained, "But in order for you to squeeze out all your potential, I can only tell you that failing the assessment will be erased!"
"Really?"
Ling Jiu said nonchalantly, "Can I go out now?"
"You have passed the test and are qualified to become a member of the Emissian Civilization. As the intelligent program of the exploration spaceship, I was created to serve the Emissian Civilization!"
9527 smiled and said, "As a member of the Emissian Civilization, of course you have the right to enter and exit this place freely!"
Ling Jiu breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could leave this damned place, everything would be fine.
"By the way, I remember you said that passing the assessment would reward you handsomely. Does that still count?" Ling Jiu looked at 9527.
"Of course it does!"
9527 smiled. "Now I will give you the reward for passing the assessment. You have already gotten the first reward!"
"Ugh …"
Ling Jiu was taken aback. "Got it? What reward? Why don't I know about it? "
"The first reward is the method of absorbing dark bio-energy," 9527 explained.
"The universe we are in is composed of visible light matter and invisible dark matter," 9527 explained.
"There is no need to explain bright matter. Animals, planets, stars, and all visible celestial bodies are bright matter, and the remaining invisible is dark matter!
"Therefore, we also think that the universe is composed of dark matter and bright matter!
"Although the bright universe is visible, it only accounts for 15% of the total mass and energy of the universe. Although the dark universe is invisible, it accounts for 85% of the total mass and energy of the universe!
"This shows how huge dark matter (dark universe) is!"
Ling Jiu listened quietly.
"Ling Jiu, you should know that bright matter is divided into many forms, such as metal, plastic, wood, light energy, heat energy, planets... and so on!
The same is true for the more massive dark matter. It is also composed of many different forms and types of dark matter! "
9527 smiled. "Among them, there are two kinds of dark matter that are most closely related to you fleshly beings!"
"Two kinds?"
Ling Jiu cocked an eyebrow.
"The dark psionic energy that forms the soul and the dark bio-energy that strengthens the body!"
9527 continued. "Dark psionic energy and dark bio-energy are both dark matter!"
"The soul is composed of dark matter?" Ling Jiu was shocked.
"Yes!"
9527 smiled. "The soul is invisible, undetectable, and formless. It is one of the most mysterious dark matter!"
"I see!"
Ling Jiu nodded slightly and then asked in confusion. "What do these things you said have to do with my reward?"
"As I said earlier, the first reward is the method of absorbing dark bio-energy!"
9527 said. "Dark bio-energy is widely found in the dark universe. Under normal circumstances, cosmic life cannot absorb dark bio-energy at all!
Unless there is a dimensional rift or other relatively extreme cosmic phenomenon, dark bio-energy will spill into the bright universe and be absorbed by life! "
"But …"
"But what?"
Ling Jiu was puzzled.
"The dark bio-energy that spills into the bright universe will experience an energy level attenuation effect, causing its effect to be greatly reduced. In short, it is a degradation!"
"Degradation?"
Ling Jiu was startled.
"Let's put it this way!"
9527 adjusted the context. "When dark bio-energy exists in the dark universe, it is a high-level energy. But when it spills into the bright universe, it will be degraded to low-level energy. Do you understand what I mean?"
Ling Jiu was stunned. "You mean the Gene Arcana I absorbed before is a degraded low-level dark bio-energy?"
"Yes!"
9527 nodded. "Although the degraded dark bio-energy has almost all the characteristics of dark bio-energy, it is an indisputable fact that the effect is greatly reduced!"
"If the former is compared to inferior, inferior, and knock-offs, then the latter is the purest high-quality, superior, and authentic product!"
"Therefore, the effect of absorbing the degraded dark bio-energy is also not satisfactory!"
"So …"
"The first step of every Emissian Civilization warrior's cultivation is to find the source of dark bio-energy and absorb pure dark bio-energy!"
"No wonder …"
Ling Jiu clenched his fist and muttered to himself. "No wonder I always felt that the Gene Arcana I just absorbed was a little weird. I didn't expect …"
