"Core historical site?" Feng Lin was startled.
Mars's Core was a huge ball of fire where lava churned constantly. The temperature would at least be ten thousand degrees or higher. Who would have thought that there would actually be another dimension inside it?
What sort of historical site could exist inside the core of a planet? Wasn't this simply incredible?
"What origin does this core historical site have?" Feng Lin asked his assistant, Matsushita Onijin.
Feng Lin's Mental Gene was also strengthened to 9 points. The effect of his hypnotism was much more tyrannical compared to before. This imperceptible influence was extremely fearsome, causing these egg-humans to be extremely obedient to Feng Lin. The wariness in their hearts had completely vanished, and they would answer every question he asked them. This was because they wanted more information on the Crystallization Medicine Creation Technique from Feng Lin.
Matsushita Onijin respectfully replied, "The historical site is a mythological ruin our company has excavated. Inside, many secrets pertaining to the Ancient Era can be found. Even that ancient divine medicine came from there. But now, that place has already become the forbidden grounds of our company! Without permission from the company, no one can enter there or they would be killed no matter who they are!"
"Oh?" Feng Lin's expression remained unchanged, yet a thought suddenly flashed through his mind as he thought of something he had accidentally overlooked. His eyes gleamed with sharpness as he stared at Mars's Core. His eyes were like sharp swords that could penetrate through, able to see through all secrets within.
Could it be the ruins of the once imposing Furnace Immortal Sect? A light lit up in Feng Lin's mind, it was very possible.
The ancient divine medicine was known as the Grandmist Fate Pill. Since the Giant Pharmaceutical Company was able to obtain this, they must have discovered some ancient relics or ruins from the Furnace Immortal Sect.
Ever since humanity stepped on Mars, over ten thousand years had already passed. Since the Furnace Immortal Sect's ruins were just recently discovered by the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, it must definitely be in an extremely secretive place or people would have found it long ago.
Given how advanced technology currently was, every inch of Mars had been electronically scanned before. In that case, which place was the safest?
Hence, only the space inside Mars's core had the highest possibility!
After all, a planet's core was the heart of the planet. It involved in the stability of the entire planet, and a slight change would affect the entire space; thus, nobody would dare to casually do anything to the planet's core.
Nobody would dare to bear the risk of destroying a planet's life.
Upon thinking of this, Feng Lin was 70% to 80% sure that the ancient ruins of the Furnace Immortal Sect was inside Mars's core.
This also coincided with the arcane secrets of alchemy.
Pill concoction required fire. And the fire of this planet's core was known as the planetary earth-fiend fire in alchemy. It was considered a first-class flame in pill concoction. The temperature was extremely high and had many wondrous aspects to it. If one could use such flames, it was the best to use it to concoct all sorts of divine miraculous pills.
Given the Furnace Immortal Sect's deep foundation, it was only to be expected that they would have done something to Mars's core since they had been using Mars as a base.
What would there be inside the historical site? Would there be a pill concoction furnace?
Feng Lin's heart stirred with excitement. Didn't he just lack a pill concoction furnace? If he could obtain it, the alchemy techniques he knew would definitely be able to trump the effects of all genetic potions.
If he could really obtain one, then...
Feng Lin pretended to act casual as he asked, "Matsushita, why are you so clear about the situation inside the core historical site? Could it be that you've entered it before?"
"Yes!" Matsushita Onijin didn't attempt to lie."The divine blood ritual is conducted in there. When I was transformed into a child of god, I once entered there. The things inside are simply unimaginable. However, this concerns classified information, I cannot say anything more."
Since he put it this way, Feng Lin also didn't push him for more information.
After all, he only managed to get close to these people by using his formless mental influence. However, this didn't mean that he could control their hearts.
If he did things too intentionally, it might in fact cause their wariness to rise up and result in an adverse effect.
Previously, Aike also had a very good impression of him after being hypnotized. But the moment he became a new taskforce leader, Aike immediately felt threatened and instantly reverted to his original state.
Feng Lin didn't wish to beat the grass to alert the snake. In truth, he already knew what he wished to know.
He then started to ponder over his future path.
During these days, he was trying to think of ways for him to leave, but he couldn't find any opportunity no matter what.
The internal structures of the Giant Pharmaceutical Company were extremely rigid with many dangerous secrets all about. He didn't feel it was possible to break out from here with his strength alone. At this moment, what he needed was to join with external forces and forcibly break through this situation.
Due to his repeated experiments and tests, Feng Lin's proficiency with alchemy grew higher and higher. His Crystallization Medicine Creation Technique also grew increasingly perfect.
With this crystallization technique, Feng Lin was very clear that he was already not a genetic researcher. Right now, he could already claim to be an initial-grade geneticist.
By using this technique to refine medical ingredients into crystal-form, not only could it greatly reduce the rush of impact from the energy inside the medicine, but the medicinal potency was also greater.
Although this was far from being comparable to true pill concoction techniques, being able to master this crystallization technique alone was already sufficient for Feng Lin to become independent.
Next, it was time to refine this Green Giant Genetic Potion.
To crystallize different kinds of potions, the refining methods needed to be tweaked slightly. It wasn't the same technique used for all kinds of potions.
In addition. this was a low-martial mid-grade potion; the difficulty was extremely high.
This was also the first graded genetic potion that Feng Lin came into contact with. Each of the procedures was extremely complicated, and it was evidently very tough to master the whole thing.
Luckily, this place didn't lack genius genetic researchers. Disregarding the crystallization technique, all of these people here had attainments in the domain of genetic potions that were higher than Feng Lin.
Feng Lin watched as these people ran through the procedures and concocted a Green Giant Potion, and he quickly mastered a large part of the procedures needed.
However, he didn't show any expression on his face. After a while, he returned back to his own residence and started to experiment himself.
Giant Protein, Radiation Powder, Parsons Alloy Solution...
Every ingredient was an incomparably rare item.
Feng Lin first prepared the medical ingredients needed. However, things were different from the past, as he didn't modulate them but instantly used fire to exercise control over the ingredients.
Tendrils of mental energy radiated from Feng Lin, constantly monitoring the slightest changes. After combining his experience from the past, he quickly made the ingredients fused together. They became a stable crystal structure that could securely lock the medicinal potency within.
By combining his past experience and many pill concoction techniques, Feng Lin grew increasingly proficient.
But even so, during the first experiment, he actually failed because of a lack of experience. He didn't manage to control the strength of the fire well enough, and it led to failure.
However, Feng Lin didn't mind it. Right now, he had endless supplies of medical ingredients, and he could attempt it as many times as he liked to until he succeeded.
Finally, in the end, a blue-green colored crystal-body appeared in his hand. It was extremely resplendent and had twenty-sides to it. This was filled with a mathematical and geometry beauty, causing one to be unable to shift their eyes away when they looked at it.
However, for those who first saw it, they would assume this was a natural diamond and wasn't a genetic medicinal substance.
Crystallizing the Green Giant Potion, success!
Feng Lin carefully kept it as he didn't want to reveal it.
After that, he activated his microchip and compressed all the information he obtained during these few days including the clone army, Green Giant Potion, divine blood ritual, child of god... into a miniature file. He then selected the mysterious contact info Luke had given him and sent the information out.
Feng Lin then completely deleted all the records related to this. He didn't want to leave any clues behind.
Since he had chosen to take this step, Feng Lin knew that his relationship with the Giant Pharmaceutical Company was already completely severed.
He had no choice but to do this.
Feng Lin finally knew why Frank was able to set his heart at ease and allow an intern like him to have such heavy responsibilities, letting him take over the leadership of the core department situated in the underground laboratory. Frank was so relaxed that he even showed Feng Lin the clones they had.
The reason why was because at the very end, the divine blood ritual was waiting for Feng Lin.
If he successfully perfected the Crystallization Medicine Creation Technique, he would be transformed into someone of the White Race, becoming a child of god. He would then become the same type of person as them, no longer able to escape.
But if he refused the transformation, things would be even more dangerous for him!
Since he knew so many secrets of the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, how would they allow him to leave so easily? That would only be a fantasy.
Feng Lin also wasn't sure what cards did they have up their sleeves waiting for him.
This was such a huge crater, and Feng Lin didn't expect it before this. He only came here because he wanted to learn techniques to create genetic potions. He didn't wish to walk together on the blackened path of the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, abandon his own chinese lineage, and become an egg-human.
Now, he only had two choices left.
First was to silently leave here, returning to Earth.
And second... was to cause chaos in the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, so he could fish in troubled waters. He might also be able to gain huge benefits if that was the case.
The Mars Revolutionary Army were mortal enemies with the Giant Pharmaceutical Company. The news he had just leaked to them were true core secrets that were extremely explosive. If the Mars Revolutionary Army knew that their mortal enemy was creating an army of clones and their plan was to nurture these clones until the elite cultivator level, then they would definitely panic.
In order to protect themselves from being destroyed by the Giant Pharmaceutical Company, they would definitely take swift actions. Maybe, they would increase the frequency of the clashes with the Giant Pharmaceutical Company. When that time came, Feng Lin would sit on the fence and decide what he would do according to the situation.
If a conflict really arose, Feng Lin would take on some risks in order to try to gain profit. He wanted to see if he would have a chance to obtain the secrets from the Furnace Immortal Sect's historical ruin.
If the Mars Revolutionary Army tried to openly approach him, Feng Lin decided to leave immediately without turning his head back.
No matter how far the reach of the Giant Pharmaceutical Company was, it wouldn't be able to reach Earth.
At most, he would simply pay the fee for breaking the contract at that time!
He had already become an interstellar cultivator. A mere 50, 000 star coins was now nothing to Feng Lin.
However, what happened next far surpassed Feng Lin's imagination.
The flames of war towered up to the sky!
Mars's internal warfare suddenly erupted with no prior signs!
