Zhao Fu became interested because the Insect had eaten the Philosopher's Stone. This was an item that contained immense power, and it did not belong to this world. If it was given to a Heaven Awaken World person, it would not be able to use it. After eating it, the power would destroy their bodies, and they might even die. Their bodies might even explode.
"I wonder what will happen to the Insect after it eats the Philosopher's Stone?"
Zhao Fu looked at the insect and waited for the results. Ten or so minutes later, Zhao Fu's eyes lit up.
"Roar! Roar!
Roar … "The Insect's expression became one of pain as it howled. It collapsed to the ground and struggled, and strands of red aura came out of its body.
Zhao Fu knew that this was the Philosopher's Stone's power; the Goldsmith had used this power.
Looking at the Insect in pain, Zhao Fu did not know what would happen next. It was possible that the Insect would digest the Philosopher's Stone, or it would die.
About half an hour later, the Insect Beast underwent a shocking transformation. Its carapace started to become slightly mechanized, and the Insect Beast could actually digest the Philosopher's Stone's power.
Zhao Fu was quite shocked when he saw this. Zhao Fu had only guessed that the Insect could digest the Philosopher's Stone. He had never thought that the Insect would actually be able to do so. This was a shocking discovery.
Bang!
An explosion suddenly sounded out. Before Zhao Fu could react, the Insect's body exploded, causing blood and flesh to fly everywhere.
What was going on? It was clearly fine, so why did it explode?
Zhao Fu went up and looked at the chunks of meat on the ground, which gave off traces of Alchemy Power's aura and the slightly mechanized carapace. This proved that the Insect Beasts could absorb Alchemy Power.
But why did the Insect's body explode? Moreover, why could the Insect absorb Philosopher's Power? Why couldn't a Heaven Awaken World person absorb Philosopher's Power?
This was a very important question that Zhao Fu needed to investigate.
Following this, numerous Insects and Philosopher's Stones were sent to Zhao Fu to be tested. Zhao Fu personally carried out the experiments because if he could find the reason, wouldn't Qin be able to obtain Philosopher's Power? Then, he wouldn't have to search for a large number of Time Attribute items.
First, Zhao Fu forcefully stuffed a Philosopher's Stone into an Insect's mouth. After eating the Philosopher's Stone, the Insect immediately looked like it was in pain, and traces of alchemy power came out of its body, but it was not mechanical.
Bang!
The Insect Beast suddenly exploded, causing countless pieces of flesh and blood to fly everywhere. Zhao Fu raised his energy barrier to block the pieces of flesh and blood that flew towards him, and his expression became somewhat puzzled.
That insect seemed to be able to absorb some alchemy power before exploding. It couldn't absorb too much.
Was it because he was too strong? Thinking to there, Zhao Fu ordered the soldiers to catch a Stage 3 insect and feed it a Sage Stone. After eating the Sage Stone, the insect also seemed to be in great pain and fell to the ground, struggling as it howled.
Traces of alchemy power came out of its body, and its carapace started to mechanize. It was even more powerful than the first insect, but the insect continued to howl in pain for half an hour.
Even though it didn't explode, the insect died from the pain and lay on the ground, not moving. The alchemy aura around its body also dissipated.
What was going on? Zhao Fu felt a slight headache. He felt that he needed some specialized people to do research, and ordinary people wouldn't be able to handle it.
However, now that things had come to this, Zhao Fu wouldn't give up so easily. He waved his hand, and a sword light slashed out, opening up the insect's corpse and taking out the Sage Stone that it had eaten.
The Sage Stone had been as big as a lychee, but now, it had shrunk a bit. It could be seen that the Chaos World's creatures could digest the Sage Stone. However, it was possible that the alchemy power was very harmful to the insect's body, which was why it had died.
Could it be that alchemy power couldn't be used by people from other worlds? Qin had only imitated it and couldn't directly use it.
Moreover, the insect could absorb it and mechanize it, which meant that it had the ability to digest it. However, it had still ended up like this. Perhaps it really was impossible, and after thinking about it, Zhao Fu decided to give up on the experiment.
Beside him, Mu Minxian said, "Your Majesty, I feel that we can continue experimenting. I feel that we can continue experimenting. That insect has the ability to digest the Sage Stone, and this ability is quite special. If we can grasp this ability, we'll be able to use it to our full potential. "
Hearing this, Zhao Fu thought about it and felt that this ability was indeed worth researching. Perhaps he would be able to grasp alchemy power through this. He had given up too early, and the method of letting the insect directly devour the Sage Stone was not feasible. He could take another path.
As such, Zhao Fu once again started his research. He fed the Sage Stones to the insect one by one before looking at the results.
The Stage 1 insect's body exploded, the Stage 2 insect's body exploded, the Stage 3 insect died from the pain, and the Stage 4 insect died from the pain. What surprised Zhao Fu was that even though the Stage 5 insect seemed to be in pain, it had survived in the end.
This shattered Zhao Fu's conclusion. It turned out that the insect could refine the Sage Stone and survive.
Now, Zhao Fu carefully looked at the insect. Its carapace had been completely mechanized. Although it wasn't very advanced, its defense had greatly increased. However, what surprised Zhao Fu was that the insect's alchemy power had disappeared, only Primal Chaos aura remained.
The insect had treated the Philosopher's Stone like food. It had digested the Philosopher's Stone and refined the Philosopher's Power into Primal Chaos Energy.
Zhao Fu inspected the insect's body. Although it had suffered some damage, it could still recover. However, the insect's power and defense had greatly increased.
This Primal Chaos power was formed from alchemy power, and it had inherited alchemy power's creation, life, and mechanical abilities. Of course, it wasn't as powerful as true alchemy power.
Zhao Fu felt quite surprised; he had never thought of using such a method to control alchemy power. Didn't that mean that all of his research had been for nothing?
However, after thinking about it, Zhao Fu realized that only creatures from the Outer World could do this. After all, the Outer World's Primal Chaos power and bloodlines had the ability to disintegrate and suppress alchemy power, while Heaven Awaken World creatures did not.
Even though people from the Heaven Awaken World could not use it, this discovery was still quite important. For example, Qin had the Blood Demon Snake Mosquito, which was a fusion of the Heaven Awaken World and the Outer World.
