Chapter 371: Chapter 154 Return, Living Being Formation_3
It’s like some people have a certain ’bacteria’ in their blood.
As for this ’substance’, whether it can be synthesized or replaced in reality poses a problem for Zhang Feng.
Because he couldn’t synthesize advanced elemental substances.
Yet this substance might be the key to ’Spirit Awakening’ in reality.
If he missed this substance, he wouldn’t know when the next awakening would be.
Therefore, even if it’s difficult, it must be solved.
Zhang Feng didn’t want to miss out.
...
Another half year has passed.
This time, he was truly conducting ’elemental research independently,’ focusing on the synthesis of elements related to blood.
Without the backing of his large team or various instruments.
Zhang Feng felt it was truly challenging.
Besides, even if he had these instruments.
Zhang Feng felt he still couldn’t handle it.
It seems he must find opportunities to learn advanced elemental science and the use of sophisticated instruments.
Then find another opportunity to learn how to manufacture simple scientific instruments.
For example, ’slightly approaching research-grade’ microscopes.
If he had them, substance research would be much simpler.
Perhaps he could even see it directly with the naked eye.
The same thought crossed his mind.
Suddenly Zhang Feng realized it was the mid to late 16th century.
Leewenhoek seemed to have been an adult for quite some time.
He improved the microscope, achieving a magnification of 200 times.
In the same year.
The Spirit Cultivation Ship stormed through dozens of kingdoms, completely sweeping across most of the world’s seas like a gale.
Unfortunately, nothing was found.
It seems the method of Spirit Awakening won’t be this straightforward.
...
A year later.
Zhang Feng, using several cultivation techniques, befriended the kings of nearby kingdoms and implemented ’Island Blood Sampling.’
The reason for doing this.
Was that Zhang Feng wanted to find people whose blood lacked the ’special substance,’ and then try to drip their blood onto a stone to see if it would produce spirit.
This was also because Zhang Feng suddenly realized he hadn’t tested people without ’special substance.’
He was too anxious, resulting in fundamental errors, not employing basic scientific refutation methods.
If non-spirit people could also produce spirit, then it would be ridiculous.
Because this would prove that the matter itself was wrong.
Most likely, the text simply wanted him to find this island.
In this segment.
Several kingdoms provided hundreds of thousands of pounds of fish.
Nearly ten thousand people participated in this blood sampling examination.
And through this extensive search.
They indeed found dozens of ’substance-less individuals.’
After preserving their blood, Zhang Feng headed once more to Sea God Island.
Dripped their blood onto the stone.
Resulting in no spirit.
It seems substance is indeed necessary.
It’s a good thing, proving this method of spirit generation can actually be used in reality.
Similarly, this provided Zhang Feng with a booster.
Otherwise, continually researching would make Zhang Feng anxious.
Thus he could only use external stimuli, indirectly reassuring himself there was hope.
...
Then, the focus is next.
How to make these people generate ’substance’?
A month later.
Zhang Feng first used himself as a base, looking for someone with the same blood type to transfuse.
Getting a substance-less person to donate dozens of milliliters of blood, entering his own body.
First, Zhang Feng thought of Visualization.
Seeing how these substances formed, then experiencing this feeling, and finally applying it to reality.
But this blood was quickly assimilated by his own blood.
Even after trying methods like binding and others, it was of no use.
His blood-producing capability was too strong, swiftly infecting these blood samples, making them part of himself.
And the substance generation yielded no sensation.
This approach was vetoed.
Still, Zhang Feng didn’t give up but instead used another method.
Which was observing these people, to see how they were generating substances.
Because Zhang Feng discovered that although some lacked substances previously, upon another observation they suddenly had them.
This proved the substance isn’t innate.
This is good news.
Just asking what they ate or what they came into contact with resulted in too many possibilities.
Even though Zhang Feng identified the foods and items they had been in contact with and let others try them, no one generated substances.
Nonetheless, Zhang Feng didn’t give up, opting to continue observing.
To see if others would generate substances.
...
This observation lasted half a year.
Zhang Feng first tried letting them interact with substance-containing materials, revealing they didn’t generate anything.
Later, Zhang Feng let them return to their usual diets and activities.
Again, another person generated substance after a meal.
Through dietary investigation and comparison with the previous person’s intake.
Zhang Feng pinpointed a common food item.
’Patterned Water Fish’
Yet many ate it but didn’t generate substance.
Then, large-scale hunting, catch first, discuss later.
To see if any fish had issues.
In the following days.
Many people consumed fish.
Another person generated substance.
Zhang Feng derived yet another conclusion, a more in-depth conclusion toward the answer.
The issue lies within the fish.
Moreover, Zhang Feng identified the same substance within the fish.
Yet some fish lacked it too.
He seemed closer to the final answer.
...
In the subsequent months, Zhang Feng spent time in the sea, observing where these fish went and what they ate.
Eventually, Zhang Feng discovered a type of whitish seaweed.
After consuming this grass, they would generate substance.
Good news, this grass isn’t any Spirit Grass.
Bad news, it lacks substance.
Unable to figure it out, Zhang Feng decided to harvest some of this seaweed, letting some people eat it.
After consumption, they generated substance!
This seaweed reacts with the digestive system, causing the creation of this substance from the blood.
The problem was solved smoothly.
Additionally, this grass isn’t classified as Spirit Grass.
Next is studying this seaweed, conducting decomposition and analysis.
Realizing its cultivation and synthesis in reality.
Zhang Feng, being an expert in cultivation, was highly knowledgeable in this field.
The final answer was found.
The problem of Spiritual Qi in reality was unraveled by himself.
