Yongzhen's master, Daoxuan, was a kind-hearted pharmacist. Daoxuan also had a younger brother named Dao Ce.
The two brothers had also studied the transformation into water before. After Dogen learned about the huge side effects of transformation into water, he quickly gave up the research. He believed that this kind of thing would only bring disaster to Ashina.
But Dao Ce didn't think so. He believed that Transformation into Water was a gift from God to Ashina. He firmly believed that he would be able to develop a method to eliminate the side effects of Transformation into Water and in this way enhance the strength of Ashina Country.
Dao Ce succeeded, but he also failed.
Dao Ce has indeed developed a weakening lake that allows users to maintain their sanity, and the effect is even better than that of ordinary water.
However, before the research on the Bianruozhi Lake was completed, Dao Ce was unwilling to go to hell because his life span was exhausted. He could only leave the experimental data that was not stable enough to his only apprentice, Dao Shun.
Dao Ce originally had many disciples like Dao Xuan, but when he concentrated on studying the transformation into water, he conducted many cruel human experiments. Most of his disciples were scared away by his madness, but only Dao Shun persisted.
However, Dao Shun is not as talented as his master Dao Ce. He is just an ordinary person with ordinary talents.
The experimental results left by Dao Ce failed to be carried forward in his hands, but tended to go back.
Under tremendous mental pressure, Daoshun developed symptoms of schizophrenia. He had both the fake Dao Ce personality and his own master personality, and the two personalities communicated with each other from time to time.
When Lu Xiao found Daoshun in the dungeon, this "genius" chemist was muttering about doing experiments. Naturally, the people he used as experimental subjects were the prisoners in the dungeon. This was the deal between Genichiro and Daoshun.
Genichiro hopes to get the side-effect-free Bianwazhiyo from Daoshun. In order to stabilize Xianichiro and gain more support, Daoshun gives Xianyilang the only bottle of stable Bianwazhiyo that Dao Ce has developed.
.
Facts have proved that although Dao Ce acts in a rather extreme way, he does have the capital to be extreme.
Genichiro did not lose his mind after taking the genwakinoyo. Instead, he gained a strong physical bonus. Even if he suffered fatal injuries, he would not die so easily.
Genichiro hopes to obtain more changes in the world, and he acquiesces to Doshun using prisoners in the dungeon to conduct experiments, but until today, Doshun has still not made any breakthrough progress.
To make matters worse, the weakness of Bianruoshui has been revealed to the Guyingzhong by Xianfeng Temple. The inner army, which is preparing to launch a full-scale attack, is equipped with a large number of flamethrowers to deal with the "red eye".
"Master, I will definitely complete the research on changing into water."
"No, Daoshun, my stupid disciple, you can't do it. You are not that material after all."
"No, no, no! Please give me a little more time!"
"What are you waiting for? There are less and less experimental materials. If you can't succeed this time, just do the experiment on yourself!"
"Myself? But... no, I can't lose my mind, I can't become an experiment!"
Lu Xiao listened speechlessly as Dao Shun sang the oboe alone in the dungeon laboratory, and finally kicked the door open impatiently.
Sure enough, in the dungeon, except for a skinny experimental subject lying on the ground, there was only a man in a white robe with his face covered, talking to himself.
The white robe on his body was already stained with stains and blood. Lu Xiao saw despair and madness in his eyes. The slow progress of Bian Ruozhiding's research was almost driving him crazy.
"Doshun, I'm here to deliver a message from His Excellency Genichiro Ashina."
Lu Xiao glanced at the experimental objects on the ground and said to Daoshun coldly: "The inner government has made targeted arrangements for the 'Red Eye'. Transforming into water is no longer Wei Ming's hope. Your inhumane experiments should stop."
.”
"It's useless? No, no, no, no."
Daoshun said with a crazy smile: "I can remove the weakness of red eyes and fear of fire, but I still need more time and a test subject. Give me a test subject... ugh!"
Lu Xiao was too lazy to talk nonsense with this madman. He had already sacrificed too many people for his experiments that made no progress.
The hidden sword on his left arm penetrated Daoshun's neck, and Lu Xiao laid his powerless body flat on the ground.
"Your journey is over. May death soothe your frantic spirit."
After killing Daoshun, Lu Xiao burned down the evil laboratory.
Doshun's failed experiments had been wandering in the dungeon. Seeing the blazing fire, they had already lost their minds and fled to the entrance of the dungeon in fear. They were killed one by one by Genichiro's personal guards guarding the entrance of the dungeon.
After getting rid of Daoshun's danger, Lu Xiao continued to move deeper into the dungeon, preparing to go to the bottom of Ashina through the huge pit that the wolf mentioned.
"Ho~ho~"
Suddenly there was a strange breathing sound in the laboratory that was caught in the flames, and then there was the sound of falling water.
Half an hour later, Genichiro's personal soldiers entered the basement to confirm the situation, but unexpectedly did not find Doshun's supposed burnt body here.
"Quick! Inform Sir Genichiro that Doshun may have escaped alive!"
…
Lu Xiao knew nothing about what happened behind him. He personally confirmed that Dao Shun's heartbeat had stopped. Dao Shun, who did not have the power of immortality, should not have a chance to survive.
When entering the depths of the dungeon, Lu Xiao discovered a strange purple light in the dark underground cave.
Using eagle eye vision to scan, Lu Xiao found no trace of any living creatures nearby.
‘What the hell? It’s not Ming Jing Zhisui again, is it? Or... the other party is not a living being?’
Although Eagle Vision is useful, it can only detect living beings, and supernatural creatures such as ghosts or zombies are not within its scope.
Fortunately, the B-level Eagle Eyes also come with strong night vision capabilities, so Lu Xiao could barely see the scene near the fire in the dark environment.
A strange man with a mask on his head waved the long stick in his hand like a dancing master, and a faint purple light emitted from his long stick.
After getting closer and observing carefully, Lu Xiao almost took a breath of air.
What this strange "man" wears on his head is not a mask at all, but a patchwork of miniature heads with a look of resentment on his face. The purple light emerging from his long stick is also a ghost of the victim who opened his mouth and let out a silent howl.
'Could it be the Seven-Faced Samurai?'
The Seven-Faced Samurai is an aggregation of wronged souls, and the numerous heads on his head are symbols of these wronged souls.
'Sure enough, Dao Shun's cruel experiment finally led to retribution. Otherwise, how could this seven-faced warrior appear so close to the dungeon?'
Lu Xiao looked at the seven-faced warrior and had a headache. 'A monster in the form of a soul. Ordinary weapons may not be able to cause harm to him. Killing him will definitely consume a lot of magic power. Do you want to fight?'
It was uncertain whether the Seven-Faced Warrior would leave the cave and go to the surface. In order to avoid any accidents, Lu Xiao finally decided to deal with him.
Before the war began, Lu Xiao first carved runes on the Immortal Slash. He could feel that the magic power stored in his body was rapidly being depleted.
This kind of temporarily enchanted rune is different from the Uru Hidden Blade that Eitri made for him, and it can only last for a certain period of time.
The runes Lu Xiao carved were specifically for spiritual bodies? (raido) runes. The aura overflowing from the enchanted Immortal Slash changed from red to lavender similar to the wronged soul.
"Let's fight quickly before the magic power of the runes dissipates."
Spiritual creatures have a very keen sense of the living. Even if Lu Xiao approached with hidden aura, the Seven-Faced Warrior would still detect his traces.
"Hehehehe!"
Sharp strange laughter emitted from the countless faces of the Seven-Faced Warrior at the same time. At the same time, he pointed the staff in his hand at Lu Xiao, and a large number of purple souls with resentful expressions sprayed out from the top of the staff.
"Whoosh!"
Lu Xiao tried to swing his sword at these wronged souls. Under the influence of runes, all the wronged souls were unable to get close to his body and were cut to pieces in mid-air.
