Could this video have been post-processed?

Could that Wu Tiancheng be a plant?

Having recovered from his shock, Lin Zichen’s first thought was to harbor these doubts.

After all, it was too far beyond common understanding and seemed incredibly unbelievable.

As if knowing what Lin Zichen was thinking, Liu Chuanwu, sitting across from him, smiled and said,

“This is the original live recording, without any post-processing.”

“If you don’t believe it, I will continue to challenge other advanced Genetic Integrators in the future, and you’re welcome to come and watch live at any time.”

As he spoke these words, Liu Chuanwu’s face was full of confidence.

Lin Zichen believed that the video was real.

However, he soon harbored a question and challenged Liu Chuanwu,

“If Pure Blood Humans can overpower Genetic Integrators across levels, why don’t you post this video online? Wouldn’t that better promote your Tianren Pavilion?”

“We would like to, but the current power holders do not allow it.”

“Why not?”

“Because the current upper limit for Pure Blood Humans practicing Body Refining is only Ordinary Ninth Rank. Since they can’t break the shackles of the ordinary biological level, power holders think that no matter how invincible they are at the same rank, as long as they can’t move up in Biological Level, there’s no future to speak of, not worth the investment to promote. They say they will consider promoting it when Pure Blood Humans can break through to an advanced level.”

At this point, Liu Chuanwu scoffed and spoke with a face full of disagreement, “The problem is, if we don’t promote it a little to get more people involved in the research, it will be difficult to make a breakthrough.”

“After all, a qualitative change requires a quantitative change first.”

“Moreover, this research needs the involvement and cooperation of geniuses to proceed as envisioned.”

“But now, all the geniuses are choosing to embrace Genetic Fusion, and no one is participating in this research. In such a case, I’m afraid the research might not yield results even until the extinction of humankind.”

The more Liu Chuanwu spoke, the more troubled he seemed, his expression also carrying a hint of disappointment—a disappointment in today’s power holders.

Lin Zichen felt there was some truth to this.

Some research does need support first to yield results.

If support is only provided after results emerge, that’s a bit unrealistic and shows a lack of foresight.

However, he did not think that the power holders were truly short-sighted.

Instead, he felt that the power holders must have other backups, better than the so-called Pure Blood Human path.

Otherwise, they would not disregard the Pureblood Human Path so much.

Across from him, Liu Chuanwu continued, “Fifty years ago, my Biological Level had already reached Ordinary Ninth Rank, just a hair’s breadth away from evolving into an Advanced-level Creature, but I’ve been stuck for fifty years without being able to evolve.”

“But I feel it’s not that there’s a problem with the direction of my research, but rather that my talent isn’t good enough.”

“If a peerless genius with a higher bodily talent were to take my place, they would definitely be able to break the shackles of the ordinary level and with the aid of the Body Refining method, evolve into an Advanced-level Creature as a Pure Blood Human.”

Returning to the main topic, Liu Chuanwu said, “Actually, what I want to say is that Tianren Pavilion currently lacks nothing except for a genius like you to join.”

Wait, fifty years ago?

You only look to be in your fifties now, don’t you?

You reached Ordinary Ninth Rank when you were still a toddler?

Lin Zichen sensed something amiss and was immediately filled with doubt.

Seeing the doubt on Lin Zichen’s face, Liu Chuanwu knew what he was questioning.

After all, he had had this kind of conversation over a thousand times before.

Soon, he smiled and said, “Don’t be fooled by my current appearance of being in my fifties or sixties, actually, I’m nearly a hundred years old.”

“The reason I’ve lived so long and maintained such youth as a Pure Blood Human is thanks to the Body Refining method.”

“If you don’t believe me, you can look up my information on Baidu Baike to check my date of birth.”

Since it could be checked, it was definitely worth looking into.

Lin Zichen unlocked his phone screen, opened the Baidu Baike webpage, and entered “Dean of Shanhai University’s Martial Arts College.”

With a quick search, Liu Chuanwu’s personal information came up.

Date of birth: March 1929.

In 2024, that made him a 95-year-old elderly man.

“Body Refining really does extend one’s life, I wonder if my parents could practice it…”

The first thing that came to Lin Zichen’s mind was this.

He continued to look through Liu Chuanwu’s personal information.

In his youth, he was the eldest son of a Martial Arts Family.

The Liu Family, to which he belonged, was one of the foremost powers in Nanjiang Province at the time.

However, when the era of Genetic Fusion came, they couldn’t adapt well to the trend, refused to accept Genetic Fusion, and the whole family fell into decline.

Liu Chuanwu, as the eldest son of the family, ended up with a broken family.

The reason for the family breakup was that he insisted on not following the path of Genetic Fusion, while his wife and children chose to embrace Genetic Fusion.

He would rather suffer the dissolution of his family than give up researching the Pureblood Human Path…

Seeing this, Lin Zichen couldn’t help but admire Liu Chuanwu.

Such perseverance was not something everyone possessed.

Lin Zichen asked himself if, in the future, he and Shen Qinghan were to marry and have children and faced the same situation as Liu Chuanwu, he probably wouldn’t be able to choose research over his family.

However, this hypothesis did not exist.

Because Lin Zichen felt that if faced with the same situation, Shen Qinghan would definitely not leave him, but instead choose to stay by his side and support his research.
