Chapter 505 Cultivation Stage, the Fate of the Experimental Subject
The Second Tenkage needed to take a leave of absence for his wedding, so the First Tenkage, Orochimaru, reluctantly went to the photography studio to work for Nagato for a few days at his request.
Under Tianying's order, a group of death row inmates were secretly sent to the underground of Tianyin Village, and then transferred by Liuyun to an isolated island in the Shenwei Small World.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Uchiha Ryuun. I will be testing cultivation techniques, and even some forbidden secret methods, on you..."
Liu Yun stood in mid-air, looking down at the noisy hundred death row inmates on the island.
Most of these death row inmates deserved to die, and many of them chose to hurl insults at Liu Yun's words, all feeling uneasy about their situation.
"I hope you can cooperate with me, but if you really don't want to cooperate, that's fine too. I have ways to force you to cooperate."
Upon hearing Liu Yun's words, the prisoners on the island hurled even more insults. They felt that they were likely to die, and that they might even be used as lab rats... Such a death was unacceptable to many.
Many people wanted to run, but before they could even move, an incomprehensible force forcibly imprisoned them in place, and soon everyone was even deprived of the right to speak!
Liu Yun used the Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan to control them, and then used the Infinite Tsukuyomi illusion to make them start cultivating the cultivation method he had planned.
Strands of natural energy were quickly absorbed into the bodies of the prisoners on the island. Liu Yun, with his Nine-Tomoe Samsara Eyes wide open, stared intently at the flow of energy within their bodies, while he took out paper and pen to record all the changes he saw.
On the first day of verifying the cultivation method, the hundred prisoners were basically unharmed or unwell. This was because the cultivation method created by Liu Yun was very safe. Not only were they not in danger, but they also gained a small amount of immortal power in their bodies!
However, the very next day, Liu Yun's methods became increasingly brutal...
He channeled his power into the bodies of some of the test subjects, then forcibly manipulated that energy to replace the immortal's magic power, and then circulated it throughout the body's meridians.
Among the first batch of 20 test subjects, two people were unable to cultivate immortal techniques due to congenital blockage of their meridians. Liu Yun tried several times but could not break through their blocked meridians. Instead, he caused them to get injured.
"Are they incapable of cultivation from birth?" Liu Yun muttered to himself. He didn't let the two of them continue cultivating, intending to test other forbidden techniques on them.
He examined all the methods in the Dharma Pavilion, including both internal and external cultivation methods. This time, he wanted to verify more than one method, so even those who were useless and could not cultivate still had other uses for him, and he could not kill or discard them for the time being.
With Ryuun's forced growth on the second day, 90 out of 100 people successfully acquired inner magical power (Sage Chakra) no less than that of a Genin. However, 10 people were unable to continue their training for various reasons and were temporarily sidelined by Ryuun.
The forced training continued, and on the third, fourth, and fifth days, there were still no deaths. In the end, 80 people successfully completed the test.
They were forcibly injected with the power of a Jonin-level Sage. Not only did these people not experience any discomfort, but their physical functions were also significantly enhanced.
If we assume they possessed the combat experience and ninjutsu of Jonin at this moment, then these 80 people could probably defeat 80 ordinary Jonin!
Because they possess Sage Mode, using Sage Mode to perform ninjutsu is equivalent to Sage Technique. Ninjutsu performed with normal chakra will be mercilessly crushed by Sage Technique of the same type. This is the difference between chakra and Sage Mode.
"Aside from some accidents and special cases, all 80 people had no problems, which proves that my initial steps in immortal techniques were without issue..."
Liu Yun kept recording and drawing on the paper, and gradually he drew out a part of the correct method of cultivating immortality.
After finishing the drawing work at hand, Liu Yun decisively allowed them to continue their cultivation.
During this time, Liu Yun will do his best to ensure their safety, because these people have powerful energy in their bodies, so they don't need to eat; drinking water is enough for them to survive.
Over the next period of time, Liu Yun began to infuse more immortal magic power into their bodies.
After several days of continuous energy infusion, some of the 80 people began to experience ruptured meridians and blood vessels, indicating that their bodies had clearly reached energy saturation!
"Most ordinary people can only hold the power of a sage at the Shadow level, but some physically strong or exceptionally talented individuals can hold even more power..."
Liu Yun continued to record these experimental results one by one with her pen.
Prisoners with Kage-level magical power possess physical strength and senses far superior to ordinary ninjas, and all their bodily functions are enhanced by the magical power.
The power within these 80 people varied, but their bodies had reached saturation, so Liu Yun could no longer infuse them with immortal magic power!
Liu Yun refers to this process of going from an ordinary person to having full and perfect magical power as the 'Cultivation and Qi Refining Stage'!
Having reached the perfect stage of Qi Refining, Liu Yun then began to concentrate the magical power within the body into the dantian area of the abdomen.
As the 80 people began to gather their magical power, Liu Yun planned to have them condense dragon pearls directly within their bodies, and then compress the dragon pearls into inner cores. This was the same cultivation process he had gone through in the Dragon Land Cave.
Despite Liu Yun's experience in condensing dragon balls, accidents began to occur one after another among the 80 people. As their cultivation deepened, more and more people encountered problems, and death became inevitable.
Liu Yun was not surprised by this situation. He simply began to analyze the cause of the problem indifferently, and then tried to solve these problems based on his own experience.
As time went on, only 6 out of 80 people successfully condensed the Dragon Ball, and none of these 6 people were able to compress the Dragon Ball within their bodies into an inner core...
Liu Yun remained unsurprised, after all, these people were merely test subjects he had forcibly enhanced using his magic. He used these test subjects to simulate cultivation, thereby obtaining data, experience, and inspiration from them. This was his true purpose in verifying the cultivation method!
"The Qi Refining method is basically fine and can be used by others for cultivation. However, the Core Formation method may need further improvement..." This was the conclusion Liu Yun reached after the experiment.
The only role of ordinary people is to help Liu Yun verify the Qi Refining Method, and he himself understands this.
"Next, it's time to try other cultivation methods..."
Liu Yun still has several internal and external cultivation methods, and he also has many ideas that need to be tested on living people.
For example, could the 'Eight Gates Formation' be improved? Or is it possible for the eight gates of the human body to be permanently opened? And why can a special breathing method like the 'Seven-Day Breathing Technique' enhance combat power? These are all experimental projects that Liu Yun is very interested in.
The 100 prisoners in the Divine Might Space probably wouldn't be enough to support him in completing all his experiments, and these people would never have the chance to leave the Divine Might Space.
As experimental subjects, they were both unfortunate and fortunate, because even though their bodies were being ravaged, their spirits were still greatly satisfied. This was because Liu Yun used Infinite Tsukuyomi to weave a wonderful dream for these people. They might die, but they would not feel pain!
In the dream, Liuyun fulfilled all their wishes, while in reality, they needed to satisfy Liuyun's thirst for knowledge. Everyone got what they needed, and no one owed anyone anything.
