Chapter 26: Chapter 25 Complete Form
Lin Rui and Wang Sen’s extraterrestrial spiritual synchronization work was carried out separately.
Professor Si Malin personally took charge of Lin Rui’s part, munching on the cookies Lin Xi had prepared while reading Lin Rui’s newly issued medical report. He clicked his tongue and said, “Your spiritual power value is now 372, which is at the level of a captain, having almost doubled.”
Lin Rui listened, his eyes blank.
He hadn’t done anything special these past few days. He had practiced the Red Thunder Stance every day without fail but certainly couldn’t have increased his spiritual power level to 372 in just a few days.
With a speculative look, he gazed at Si Malin, “Professor, could this be related to my extraterrestrial body?”
“You guessed it right, it is indeed the extraterrestrial body.”
...
Si Malin closed the medical report and looked at Lin Rui, “You must be familiar with the theory of the people from Tianji Star. They believe that the universe is an ocean, the physical body a ship, and the soul nurtured within it. The more robust and powerful the ship, the stronger the soul it nourishes.”
Lin Rui nodded; such theories also existed in ancient China.
Other ancient civilizations within the Earth Federation had similar beliefs.
“The so-called extraterrestrial body is essentially another physical form of yours, akin to the ancient concept of an external incarnation. Your current extraterrestrial form is extraordinarily powerful, hence it can nurture back your soul, significantly increasing your spiritual strength and even enhancing your control over thunder and fire. This is quite common among those with extraterrestrial bodies, nearly all of whom possess a far superior spiritual power than average bioengineered martial artists.”
After saying this, Si Malin opened a door nearby, “Come on in, and see what your extraterrestrial body looks like.”
Lin Rui had long been anxious for this moment.
Eagerly following Si Malin, he then saw a vertical incubation tank positioned in the center of the room.

Inside the tank stood a ‘Tianji Star person,’ two meters four in height, well-proportioned, with a handsome face, high nose, ears reminiscent of legendary elves, and short hair floating in the nutrient solution like seaweed.
By human standards, this Tianji Star person’s features were very handsome, although Tianji Star people’s aesthetic standards differed from humans’.
Upon seeing this Tianji Star person for the first time, Lin Rui felt a profound connection of blood and flesh.
—This must be his extraterrestrial body!
Lin Rui felt as if he and this body were one!
Lin Rui then noticed that this Tianji Star person’s skin was strikingly covered with scales reminiscent of dragon armor.
“These dragon scales can be retracted and hidden under the skin. Their defensive capability is very strong, equivalent to the latest model of third-tier exoskeletal armor. If you ever attain the Dragon Transformation Realm, your transformative armor should be incredibly powerful,” Si Malin said while sending Lin Rui a report via an online chat interface, “You can have a look at your extraterrestrial body’s medical report.”
Lin Rui opened it and glanced through, his body trembling.
The Tianji Star identity ‘Lin Twelve’ chosen by Lin Rui was a first realm martial artist, already in the later stage of ‘Channel Opening’, equivalent to a Warrant Officer in the Earth Federation.
Hence, the cultivation standard of Lin Rui’s extraterrestrial body was set accordingly.
The current bioengineering technology of the Earth Federation was indeed capable of directly cultivating bodies fit for colonel-level bioengineered martial artists.
However, considering the issue of soul-body synchronization and spiritual power, extraterrestrial walkers generally started at the levels between four-star non-commissioned officers and warrant officers, growing in synchronization with their extraterrestrial bodies.
Lin Rui took the document and found it was a permission agreement, which would allow Si Malin to extract some data from his ‘variant body intelligent auxiliary biological chip.’
Variant operators still have to live; they can’t control the variant incessantly.
That’s when the ‘variant body intelligent auxiliary biological chip’ is needed to help. In the absence of the variant operator, it takes over according to programmed behaviors, much like an automobile’s autopilot system, capable of handling daily activities and simple tasks for the variant.
Lin Rui noted that the permission agreement Si Malin offered was very rigorously worded. Si Malin was allowed to access data only on Lin Rui’s variant body’s physical condition, and the term was set for 20 years.
After careful thought, Lin Rui decisively signed the agreement.
He knew someone like Si Malin, a top-level medical professor, had many ways to take advantage of or harm him if he wished to.
Si Malin didn’t need a permission agreement to meddle; he could have tampered with his body during the cultivation of the variant body.
Lin Rui knew without Si Malin’s help, with the electronic consumption of his variant body at the time of cultivation, he likely wouldn’t have had the chance to complete it.
This was a blessing in disguise.
Looking at the worst-case scenario, Si Malin could directly report the situation to the company and federal government, forcing him into experiments.
“Here’s to a fruitful collaboration.”
Si Malin’s eyes gleamed with satisfaction as he took back the agreement, thinking that this kid was truly smart.
There was definitely something wrong with that drop of Lin Rui’s blood; it probably related to the calamities that befell the Lin family years ago. However, Si Malin had no intention to probe deeper or to announce it publicly. He just wanted to research the data of Lin Rui’s variant body, which could help him develop a new model of enhanced control implants, a more powerful version.
That old classmate of his had left him a significant surprise.
Si Malin was even willing to use his formidable connections to offer some protection to the kid: “Given your body’s condition, you don’t need to wait another month. Based on past experience, your variant body and original body will have a synchronized reaction; the stronger your variant in Tianji Star, the stronger your original body will become as a result.
After one round on Tianji Star and taking one type of gene enhancement fluid, you can implant the wheel veins. I recommend the ‘Divine Thunder Heavenly Flame’ wheel vein version, which fits your channels inherited from the Sacred Body. However, it’s very expensive, 450,000 Federation Coins, and you’ll need to replace your Dantian too, which will cost another 50,000 Federation Coins.
Your current Dantian is top-grade, but it can’t bring out the full power of ‘Divine Thunder Heavenly Flame.’ You should prepare a loan; at that time, based on the condition of your variant body, I still plan to make special adjustments to ensure uniformity between your physical body and variant body. If you’re not reassured, you can actually consider enrolling in my integrated bachelor-master program in medicine, which would help you better understand your body.”
Lin Rui frowned slightly.
Wasn’t the gene enhancement fluid only usable once a month? Otherwise, his spirit and body wouldn’t be able to handle it.
He soon realized that this was advice based on his particular body condition provided by Si Malin.
This was one of the benefits of signing the permission agreement with Si Malin.
As for Si Malin’s suggestion about studying medicine with him, Lin Rui was actually quite tempted.
If he could master certain medical knowledge, it would prevent others from deceiving him.
He trusted the current Si Malin and had no choice but to trust him, but who knew what the future might hold?
Lin Rui heaved a quiet sigh; where would he find the time and energy to study now?
“By the way! Who made these pastries? Your sister?” Si Malin picked up the gift box in his hand and shook it in front of Lin Rui, “Bring me some more next time you have the chance.”
These cookies and sweet osmanthus cakes are delicious!
