299: New field testing, unlimited resurrection.

"Heh heh."

The God of Time and Space glanced at the God of War, teasing, "I was just teaching him how to wipe his ass, why are you so anxious?"

"Are you afraid he'll mistake you for shit and wipe you away with a single piece of paper?"

"I'm really..."

"Shouting as soon as you show up, you're like one of those hyper-masculine children!"

"And transgressing taboos!"

"Haven't you interfered in human affairs enough?"

"Are those three great Celestial Race members all genetic mutations?"

"I don't even want to bother with you!"

The God of War was stunned into silence, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

He could only say with a grim expression, "He's a God from another world, aren't you afraid..."

"What am I afraid of?"

"I can see the timeline, I know what's going on, I..."

The God of Time and Space paused, surprised, "You scoundrel! Are you trying to trick me into talking?"

The God of War's eyes lit up with excitement, and he cackled, "This is purely an unexpected gain, you just talk too much! Hahaha!"

The God of Time and Space was silent for two seconds, then also started to laugh, "I shouldn't have chatted with you for so long, talking too much brings bad luck."

"Hahaha... Huh?"

The God of War stopped laughing, frowning as he asked, "What bad luck???"

...An hour later, Qin Yang arrived at the basement of the Dragon Pavilion Guild.

After a series of modifications, the Dragon Pavilion Guild's basement had been expanded into an "underground base."

It contained a cafeteria, shops, a forging area, a treatment room, and a series of other basic facilities, almost like the entrance to an underground city.

All of this was in preparation for secretly training new recruits.

The ordinary people who had been converted into Professionals all had a tiny bit of social connections.

If they frequently entered and exited the Dragon Pavilion Guild, it would inevitably arouse suspicion from others.

Qin Yang built this underground base precisely so they could be stationed there long-term.

And within this "underground base," a temporary prison had also been erected, holding 200 captives.

These were all spoils of war from the Battle of the Coasts of Kyushu.

Originally there were 2000 prisoners of war, but most of them were given to Si Zhenfeng to handle.

Those prisoners of war needed to assist Kyushu in integrating all the intelligence and technology of the sky-air battleship to develop Kyushu's mechanical Professionals.

The 200 captives Qin Yang brought were to be used for testing new Domains.

Before Qin Yang entered the secret room, the 200 prisoners of war had already been arranged into three square formations under the guidance of the Twelve Zodiacs.

They all looked bewildered but stood ramrod straight.

Seeing Qin Yang enter, they all lowered their heads, avoiding eye contact.

By rights, these people should have knelt in homage.

But Qin Yang didn't see these test subjects as people at all, so he couldn't be bothered with the procedure. He casually opened the portal to the "Infinite Training Ground" and said to the Twelve Zodiacs, "Begin the test."

"Clang!"

Zhou Hu, one of the Twelve Zodiacs, drew the long saber from his waist and shouted at the captives in front of him, "Go in!"

Hearing the word "test," the captives were all stunned.

One middle-aged man asked with a trembling voice, "W-what do you want to test?"

"Why so many questions? Get in!"

Zhou Hu pointed his long saber at the middle-aged man and said sharply.

He was only Rank 17 now, but that middle-aged man was a Rank 70 high-tier Professional.

Normally, he wouldn't dare to provoke a Grandmaster like this.

But now, with Qin Yang standing nearby, this was a case of "the fox borrowing the tiger's might."

That Grandmaster Tier officer was clearly not afraid of Zhou Hu. He righteously roared, "Don't think I don't know what you're doing! You're conducting human experiments! This is inhumane!"

Upon hearing "human experiments," the other captives panicked.

"We are captives, we should be treated with leniency!"

"We've already surrendered... you can't abuse us..."

"I protest! What you're doing doesn't comply with international conventions!"

The captives all looked fearful, staring at the grey-purple swirling portal, unconsciously backing away step by step.

Some of the bolder ones even began to protest.

Qin Yang looked at these people, his eyes devoid of any emotion.

His gaze was like that of someone looking at a group of cattle and sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

After a moment of silence, he conjured four Hands of Imperial Authority, clenching them into fists, and hammered them down on the outspoken middle-aged man and the three other protesters.

Boom!

The immense force caused the entire secret room to shake, and sand and stones continuously fell from the ceiling.

The four captives who were struck turned into four puddles of flesh, and blood oozed from the cracks in the ground.

This scene terrified the other captives, making their livers and gallbladders split. Several fainted on the spot, and those close to the four puddles of flesh couldn't help but vomit.

It was then that Qin Yang said in a calm tone, "Surrendering is your business. Whether or not I treat you as captives is My business."

With that, he looked at the Twelve Zodiacs again and said, "Begin the test."

The Twelve Zodiacs were also greatly shaken by the scene.

It was their first time seeing Qin Yang personally kill someone.

Good heavens, he really didn't waste a single word.

With this deterrence, the captives lost all courage to resist, and one by one, they were escorted by the Twelve Zodiacs into the portal.

"Asura Warriors quantity: 20."

"Asura Warriors Rank: 35."

"Asura Warriors are permitted to carry weapons."

...After the first batch of captives entered the Infinite Training Ground,

Qin Yang then customized the configuration of the Infinite Training Ground.

The Twelve Zodiacs had not yet challenged Asura Warriors carrying weapons.

This was a good opportunity for them to see the true strength of the Asura Warriors... Ten minutes later, the first batch of the Twelve Zodiacs who had entered exited the Infinite Training Ground.

Their faces all wore expressions of terror.

They had clearly been badly frightened by the armed Asura Warriors.

"Your Majesty... the captives all..."

Zhou Hu stepped forward, half-kneeling before Qin Yang, stuttering.

Before he could finish, Qin Yang said indifferently, "They all died, didn't they?"

Zhou Hu was stunned, then nodded, "Yes, they all died, and were resurrected as Undead..."

Qin Yang nodded slightly.

He had already learned this outcome through the notifications.

Within the Throne of Bones, what is undying and unkillable is the Soul, not the Physical Body.

Recalling the battle in the Holy City.

He had also entered the Throne of Bones in a Soul state.

After exiting, he directly returned to his Physical Body to resurrect.

From this, it can be seen that the correct operation should be to let the Soul enter it.

Thinking of this, Qin Yang looked at the remaining captives and said to the Twelve Zodiacs, "Give them weapons and equipment. Begin the second test."

For the second test, Qin Yang activated the Throne of Bones' ability, drawing out the Souls of these captives and sending them into the Infinite Training Ground.

This also included the Twelve Zodiacs.

Their main responsibility was to record the experimental results and data.

And also to adapt to the new leveling environment.

Compared to the Asura Training Ground, the Infinite Training Ground was filled with a strong aura of death. To exert their full strength within it, they had to overcome their fear of the Undead.

Qin Yang was just thinking about this.

Several notifications appeared before him.

[Kim Joong-hwan (Rank 34), deceased. Refine his Soul?]

"If it's a Soul body, then a refinement prompt appears."

"Do not refine."

Qin Yang responded in his mind.

The reason the Ice Heart Queen was so powerful was that she had refined numerous departed Souls through the Throne of Bones, gathering nearly endless death power.

After making his choice, Qin Yang released that wisp of Soul again.

The Soul floated out of the portal and flew towards its Physical Body.

Soon, the Professional named Kim Joong-hwan regained consciousness.

He suddenly clutched his neck and knelt, coughing violently, his eyes filled with the terror of his near-death experience.

It was clear that he had just "died" from a slit throat or decapitation.

But after his Soul returned to his Physical Body, he inherited the mental damage, while his Physical Body was unharmed.

"Infinite resurrection, the test was successful."

Qin Yang's lips curved into a smile, and he adjusted the number and Rank of the monsters in the Secret Realm again.

Next, he needed to see if the Soul body could successfully gain experience.

If it could... Qin Yang was already a demigod.
