Chapter 714 Soul Human
Although due to the reasons of immortality and development potential, human civilization has fallen into a dilemma.
But this does not hinder human civilization's research on dark matter and dark energy.
Countless human researchers, including Dr. Chen Mu, have devoted themselves to the research on primary force, dark matter, dark energy, and the soul.
Time passes by unknowingly.
More than five hundred Earth years passed.
Orion Arm, Aoba Series.
This planetary system named after Li Qingye is conducting a very important research.
More than a dozen researchers who were at the end of their lives volunteered to become experimental subjects and participate in this secret research.
One of them was an old researcher whose body was very young but whose soul had aged to the point of near neurasthenia. He looked at the Primordial Stone brought to him by the robot without showing too much excitement on his face.
If the Primordial Stone is implanted in the pineal gland of the head, it can continuously release decaying dark energy, thereby delaying the decay of the soul, and even reverse the aging of the soul and restore it to a youthful state.
But this thing is not without side effects.
After all, all medicine is poisonous.
During the decay of the dark matter of the Primordial Stone, it will continuously destroy the cells of the body. This is mainly because the energy exceeds the tolerance limit of ordinary bright matter creatures.
If that were all, then with current human biotechnology, it would be entirely possible to compete with the Primordial Stone in terms of cell repair speed. As long as the body's self-recovery ability exceeded the damage caused by the Primordial Stone, there would naturally be no serious consequences.
But the real side effect of the Primordial Stone is the dark energy released during its decay.
The Primordial Stone itself has no intelligence, and the dark energy released by its decay only obeys the basic rules of the universe.
It's like if radioactive elements can kill cancer cells, then can a piece of radioactive material be implanted into the body?
Such is the present state of the Primal Stone with respect to the human soul.
After the Origin Stone is implanted, the soul will indeed be replenished and even its strength can be enhanced, but the consequence is a drastic change in temperament, mania, loss of control, madness, and amnesia.
This change comes from the soul level. No matter how advanced the biotechnology of human civilization is at this time, there is no way to reduce this side effect.
Such terrible side effects also make the Primordial Stone very useless in treating soul decay.
Of course, researchers of human civilization did not give up.
Since radioactive substances can treat cancer, the Primordial Stone can also be used. It’s just that humans have not yet found the key to unlock this treasure.
This experiment is to find the key.
In fact, human civilization has conducted many similar experiments.
After all, at this time, human civilization has 130 million planets, and each planetary system has a population of at least several billion, and as many as hundreds of billions.
Countless people die from natural causes every year.
Although many of these elderly people who are approaching their deathbed are unwilling to go through the trouble, there are still some who are willing to give it a try.
Those elderly people who are willing to give it a try all choose to participate in some extremely dangerous experiments, using their last lives to leave valuable data for future generations.
Countless elderly people sacrificed their lives, allowing human civilization to obtain a large amount of valuable data in the field of soul research.
With the help of these data, researchers in the spiritual field of human civilization have come up with some rough ideas.
Today's experiment is to verify one of the ideas.
The old researcher took a soybean-sized Primordial Stone and placed it in the palm of his hand.
Then on one side, a special auxiliary instrument cast an ultra-small secondary primary force field over the old researcher's hand.
This level of secondary primordial force is not enough to trigger the Primordial Stone's ability to devour souls, but it does slow down the decay rate of the Primordial Stone by tens of thousands of times.
It turns out that it would only take a few hundred years for the primordial stone to completely decay into ordinary dark matter, dark energy, and bright matter. Now it will take at least several million years to complete the complete decay.
In this case, the amount of dark energy released by the Primordial Stone during its decay was also reduced to tens of thousands of times its previous level.
The torrent of decaying dark energy that was like a flooding river before now seemed like a calm stream in the mountains.
at the same time.
Dozens of other secondary primary force generators also started up.
The force fields produced by these secondary primary force generators were as big as eggs, covering every part of the old researcher's body.
Moreover, there are some differences in the energy levels of these force fields .
The decaying dark energy released from the palm of the left hand was attracted by a force field in the left forearm.
Under the guidance of one force field after another, the decaying dark energy completed a cycle in the old researcher's body, and finally the dark energy disappeared into the void.
Other researchers had discovered through monitoring equipment that the old researcher's body was beginning to show changes.
"How is it going?"
"Soul strength increased by 0.00254 standard psychic powers."
"The experimental subject's memory information has not changed..."
"The cells in my left hand have slightly deteriorated, but have been repaired..."
The head of the laboratory thought about it and found that there were no other problems, so he ordered: "Continue the experiment."
"receive!"
The experiment lasted for three years.
During this period, the soul strength of the 15 experimental subjects not only recovered to the best state of their youth, but also broke through the limits of ordinary new humans, reaching a strength of about 2.3 to 2.4 times that of ordinary new humans.
However, this result made the researchers even more worried.
Because they had another problem.
That is, as the soul continues to grow stronger, the soul and the body begin to show signs of rejection.
This situation surprised and delighted human civilization.
Obviously, human technology has reached another level.
Many researchers even speculate that dark matter, dark energy, primordial force and soul are very likely the key to advancing to the second-level civilization.
Galaxy 27069.
The technology of human civilization has opened a new chapter.
Because the first "soul" that was completely independent of visible matter successfully maintained self-awareness.
Human civilization has entered a new era based on "dark matter and dark energy".
The issue of immortality, which has always plagued human civilization, has also been preliminarily resolved at this time.
Those humans who were on the verge of soul decay were all transformed into soul humans. If there were sufficient resources, soul humans could survive for about 1,500 years.
As for those normal new humans who reversed the decay of their souls by absorbing the Primordial Stone, their natural lifespan can reach about 800 years.
All in all, the combined human lifespan can reach 2,300 years.
This is almost the limit that individual life can reach without memory reincarnation.
After all, the lifespan of the soul has a limit, this is a natural law.
Unless one can achieve immortality in disguise through cloning and reincarnation of memory, but that is basically equivalent to the state of "living dead" and has no potential at all. So what's the point?
