356: Fusion transplantation of root cause fragments?

"Sealing, Dragon Clan, source fragment..."

After connecting these three things, Chen Heng basically guessed what the product of this experiment was.

It must be that evil Dragon of the Eastern Demon Alliance!

And judging by the almost identical material of the world-suppressing nail and the Divine Demon Domain, Chen Heng's guess should be correct.

Turning to the next page, a bold and heavy line of text appeared in Chen Heng's eyes.

【The source fragment is ultimately determined to be unusable. Any entity that has undergone Fusion with a source fragment will be assimilated by the source.】

【It will relentlessly slaughter all living beings to achieve the goal of Ultimate Return.】

【I have sealed all experimental products and will dispose of them harmlessly after the matter concludes.】

Useful information for Chen Heng ended here; the rest was basically various experimental data.

All three file bags contained various experimental data on source fragments, which gave Chen Heng a headache just looking at them.

"You really know how to cause trouble..." Chen Heng sighed. It seemed his Senior didn't live to see the end of the matter.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have left such a great evil as the evil Dragon from ancient times until now.

"But... the Eastern Demon Alliance's records don't show the evil Dragon existing for so long. What's going on?"

"Could there have been several historical gaps in between?"

The more Chen Heng thought, the more his head hurt. This kind of thing was really not something he could just blow up.

To be honest, if it weren't for his Fellow Countryman making the source sound so sinister, Chen Heng would want to rush over and smash the source right now.

"So annoying."

Chen Heng scratched his head, feeling a bit irritated. What he was worst at was these obscure matters.

Why couldn't things be recorded clearly? He had to find out everything bit by bit himself.

"By the way, did you find a room in the ruins that was guarded by a powerful being, and there was something inside?"

Chen Heng had one good quality: if he couldn't figure something out, he simply wouldn't think about it and just let nature take its course.

Who cares about the source or whatever? If he gets pushed too far, he'll smash it even if it costs him his life.

"Please wait a moment, I need to check the previous records."

Chen Heng's sudden question caught the Old Woman off guard.

After all, these were matters from thousands of years ago, and she couldn't answer Chen Heng's question immediately.

"Hmm." Chen Heng nodded, continuing to digest the information in the file bag in his mind.

Putting everything else aside, the method his Senior left him for utilizing source fragments seemed feasible... Chen Heng's desire to court death began to burn fiercely. He wanted to see how much the source would affect a person.

He basically met several preconditions for the experiment. Whether it was physical strength or recovery ability, he was much stronger than the evil Dragon.

The only danger lay in his mental state. Chen Heng knew that his mental state might not be normal... What normal person would think about blowing up the source? They should all try to stay as far away as possible.

However, given Chen Heng's nature, as long as it could make him stronger, he would dare to try anything on himself.

He naturally wouldn't let go of this source fragment either.

"If it doesn't work, I'll just die once. What's the big deal?"

Thinking of this, Chen Heng once again opened the file bag containing the process of various data, noting down the important nodes in his mind.

After about ten minutes, the Old Woman walked over empty-handed.

"What, didn't find it?" Chen Heng raised an eyebrow. These people wouldn't be trying to fool him, would they?

"No, that's not it. Relevant records were found." The Old Woman shook her head and explained the whole story.

The Chengtian Empire discovered the place where his Fellow Countryman's legacy was left over a thousand years ago.

After multiple encirclements and paying a heavy price, they finally obtained the things inside.

That thing was none other than a divine corpse, a divine corpse emitting powerful energy fluctuations.

However, this divine corpse had been modified beyond recognition, no different from a living battery.

And that living battery was the energy core supporting the entire operation of the Chengtian Empire, the core of the Central Great Tower.

"Take me to see it." Chen Heng was very interested in the divine corpse that had been modified into a living battery.

It wasn't that he wanted that thing; it wasn't of much use to him.

He was just curious how his Fellow Countryman managed to do such a thing, like a mad scientist.

"This... I'm afraid it's not very convenient." The Old Woman's expression was somewhat troubled.

"The energy core is located in Your Majesty's bedchamber. Normally, no one is qualified to enter."

Upon hearing the Old Woman's words, Chen Heng's eyes lit up immediately.

Isn't this perfect? He just wanted to have a good spar with His Majesty.

Then he would 'discuss' it with him in a friendly manner~

How simple.

"By the way, Mr. Chen, could you tell me a little bit about what these texts say?"

Seeing the strange smile on Chen Heng's face, the Old Woman didn't think too much and instead inquired about what was written in the file bag.

"Want to know?" Chen Heng chuckled, "It's not that I can't tell you?"

"It's just, are you sure you want to hear it?"

"Once you hear it, there's no turning back."

Chen Heng wasn't trying to scare them. He couldn't accomplish the task of transplanting source fragments into his body by himself.

He needed assistance, and these skilled individuals in front of him were the best choice.

The Old Woman swallowed, the curiosity in her eyes not fading at all, but rather growing more expectant.

"All of you, get over here!" With a loud shout, the Researchers who were busy with their own work all scurried over.

"Mr. Chen, please speak. Our Research Institute will see this through to the end."

The Old Woman's expression was firm, and the other Researchers also looked at Chen Heng with full curiosity.

"The things recorded here are very simple: a modification technique."

Chen Heng planned to explain it simply first, and tell them the specific steps when it came to practical operation.

"A technique for the Fusion and utilization of source fragments with living beings!"

"?" Everyone's faces were filled with confusion; they had no idea what a source was.

"I have to start explaining from here..." Chen Heng sighed, slowly recounting the matters of the source fragment, the Ultimate Return, and the evil Dragon.

"..." After listening to Chen Heng, the entire Research Institute fell into a dead silence.

No one had imagined that such a secret existed in this world.

"Ultimate Return..."

The Old Woman's face was grim. She was very unwilling to believe Chen Heng's words, as it was too shocking.

But given Chen Heng's strength, he had no need to lie to them, so the credibility was extremely high.

"Then... does that mean you want to try to fuse with a source fragment?"

A younger Researcher didn't care about any Ultimate Return; he was only interested in the technique Chen Heng mentioned.

"That's right, I want to try it." Chen Heng nodded, admitting it openly.

There was no need to hide such a thing; the commotion would certainly not be small when the time came.

"But we don't have any of those so-called source fragments here."
