Chapter 2316: Chapter 2315: Creator
The most important part of the human body is the brain.
It is precisely because of the brain’s thinking that humans have consciousness.
The cultivator’s Divine Sea is a secret realm opened within the brain.
As long as the brain does not die, the person cannot be considered truly dead.
Long Fei gave Victor two paths, asking him, "You now have two choices: first, I can help you clone a new body, making you like a normal person.
If you want to become stronger, you can take the path of cultivation to achieve true transcendence. However, at your age, practicing cultivation will not be easy.
Second, I will forge a mechanical body for you. After recovering, you will possess divine power that ordinary people cannot have. However, the mechanical body has its limits and cannot truly transcend. The strength of this body determines your limit."
Victor did not think twice and blurted out, "I choose the second option. My father and sister live underground, and I must become strong immediately."
Long Fei nodded and said no more.
A person may have one opportunity in their lifetime, which makes them destined.
Victor meeting Long Fei was his opportunity.
Although he missed the chance to be reborn as a human, he chose the most suitable option for himself.
Although Long Fei was reshaping a body for the first time, his method did not seem unfamiliar.
Victor encountered great fortune, as Long Fei used Profound Origin Pure Gold.
This was one of the first metals formed in the universe after its creation, far purer than later metals.
This metal has excellent ductility, and only Samadhi True Fire can refine it.
Long Fei used this soft gold as flesh and refined it into steel with Samadhi True Fire, then engraved mystic patterns as bones for Victor’s body.
The mystic patterns on the flesh and the bones could all connect to Victor’s brain, similar to the neural lines in the human body.
In this way, Victor would not be cold and mechanical but like a living person.
The critical part of this body is the heart that drives the operation of this steel body.
Though called a heart, it is actually a small array plate.
This array plate only needs an energy stone to activate the mystic patterns on the steel body, thereby driving the body’s operation.
He used a Spirit Marrow Stone, and a single spirit stone can drive the array plate for a hundred years.
This is under the condition of extreme bodily movement.
Everyone has their destiny, and Long Fei did not prepare other energy sources for Victor.
Otherwise, possessing a valuable treasure leads to danger.
The more Victor obtains, the greater the threat to his life.
After refining this body, Long Fei immersed the golden body in nutrient fluid and connected it to Victor’s head.
Wang Xiaoya curiously asked, "Is it done?"
Long Fei shook his head, "There’s one more step, but this step is quite painful. You must be prepared."
He looked at Victor.
Victor felt a strange excitement, saying, "I can endure."
Long Fei nodded and placed his sword finger on Victor’s forehead, a golden light instantly illuminating various parts of Victor’s head.
Victor’s brain suddenly twitched, and an intense pain spread through him, causing him to groan involuntarily.
Long Fei told Wang Xiaoya, "Our body is the most complex instrument created by the Heavenly Dao, with every cell being a life form. Although we can refine humanoid bodies now, they cannot reach the level of a true Daoist."
Wang Xiaoya said, "But the body you refined is a thousand times stronger than a normal person!"
Long Fei sighed, "It’s merely mechanical life, not true life. Ultimately, it cannot compare to the creation of a Daoist."
Victor’s head from inside to outside had completely turned gold at this moment.
The pain almost severed his brain nerves, but fortunately, the potion continually repaired the damaged cells in his head.
Buddhist Golden Body Technique!
Long Fei was sculpting Victor’s flesh head into a golden body, integrating it with the rest of the body.
When his entire head turned gold, even the tears from his eyes became golden liquid.
This golden head connected with the body below as if performing a seamless weld, merging drip by drip, granule by granule, piece by piece.
Victor’s brain nerves also connected with the flesh mystic patterns, revealing conspicuous neural lines across the body.
These stripe mystic patterns communicate with the mystic patterns throughout the body, thus facilitating full-body operation.
In just a moment, Victor’s fists clutched together tightly.
It was as if his flesh body had restored itself, causing him to exclaim in excitement, "Oh my god, I can feel my hands."
The neural line mystic patterns continued to descend, and soon his legs and feet regained feeling, completely like the sensation of a flesh body.
This feeling was something his previous crudely made mechanical body could not experience.
The nutrient fluid in the culture dish shook violently, his legs suddenly sprang up.
The heart area flashed brightly, and the spiritual energy from the Spirit Marrow Stone activated the heart array plate, quickly linking the body.
Victor excitedly flipped out from the culture dish, causing the hotel’s floor to tremble intensely.
His body emitted golden light, resembling a person made of gold.
Long Fei instructed, "You can try using your brain to control your body, changing it to the color of a normal person."
"Can it be done?"
Victor clenched his fists and attempted to concentrate his mind.
The mystic patterns on his body quickly lit up, and the skin color actually began to change.
In an instant, his skin shifted from the golden yellow to a humanoid white.
Long Fei told him, "Profound Origin Pure Gold is the ancestor of the world’s metals and can change into various colors. You need to gradually adapt while continuously merging your brain with this body. You can now try moving a bit, taking a couple of steps forward."
"Understood!"
Victor attempted to command his body with his brain, and indeed his legs took a step forward.
However, the movement was not very natural, similar to a toddler learning to walk; he stumbled forward and fell flat on the ground.
He couldn’t freely control the body’s strength, leaving a human-shaped mark on the floor.
Long Fei laughed and encouraged him to move freely, pulling out a set of clothing from his Storage Ring for Victor to wear.
This body had everything it needed, and when Victor jumped out, Wang Xiaoya awkwardly turned away.
Long Fei led her out, yet had barely caught his breath when they bumped into Alida coming out of the restaurant.
She had gone to Chu Feng’s room but did not find him, angrily kicking the door until it shattered.
When she saw Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya, she pursed her lips and angrily demanded, "You bunch of liars, quickly tell me where your brother is hiding!"
Long Fei stared at her, his demeanor dropping, "Miss Alida, please watch your words. My courtesy does not mean you can act recklessly before me."
Though he did nothing, his presence seemed intimidating, causing the surrounding airflow to momentarily freeze.
Alida clearly sensed this power but still acted petulantly, "What, feeling wronged? Your brother pretended to drink with me, got me drunk, and then ran off. Do you still claim not to be a liar?"
"Your behavior is indeed not likable."
Looking at her, Long Fei tightened his expression, causing her body to seem bound to the spot, unable to move an inch as if by immense gravitational pull.
"What have you done to me?"
Alida cried out in surprise, her heart energy circulating through her body but unable to move.
Long Fei calmly said, "Nothing much, just intended for you to reflect. This magnetic force will persist for two hours. Enjoy it alone!"
He left with Wang Xiaoya, as Alida desperately shouted, "Hey, don’t go! My father is the City Lord here; if you bully me, I’ll have him arrest you."
Long Fei ignored her, soon descending with Wang Xiaoya.
Alida was so anxious that she started crying, "You bastard, you’re all big liars. I won’t let you off."
