This sudden idea reminded him.

Until he returned from the otherworld, Chen Shouyi was still pondering over this matter.

Just because others can't, doesn't mean he can't. That's how Horizontal Training came about in the first place.

With the deduction function of the Book of Knowledge, as long as there is a direction, a rough idea, a corresponding cultivation technique can be perfected through deduction.

However, the difficulty lies in having a rough idea.

There are traces to follow for Horizontal Training; those ancient Horizontal Training techniques handed down, although not effective and mostly exaggerated, are still somewhat useful. But Chen Shouyi doesn't know if there's a technique for training the brain?

"Tomorrow I'll go to the library and have a look." Chen Shouyi held the Long Sword, thrusting it out, while experiencing the exertion of the body, he thought to himself.

At this moment, he had a sudden thought.

He put down the sword.

Walked to the cabinet, opened it, and took out a suitcase.

He quickly unlocked the password lock of the suitcase.

Before opening the suitcase, he instinctively glanced at the bed, the Shell Lady's tiny body was curled up, sleeping sweetly; he subtly sighed in relief, withdrew his gaze and gently unzipped it.

The suitcase contained a test tube, half filled with golden-red liquid; besides that, there was a sealed bag of Divine Blood Soil and a piece of Barbarian God's finger bone.

Other than the piece of Barbarian God's finger bone, the rest were the primordial Divine Blood obtained during the last clearing of the Giant Scythe Insect Nest.

Over half a year has passed since then, yet the Divine Blood shows no change, emanating a faint brilliance like yesterday.

Initially, only the separated plasma was used, most of which was water, this test tube holds the remaining red blood cells, platelets, and other mixtures.

One could say this tube is full of substance, containing most of the essence of the Divine Blood.

Of course, it's extremely dangerous, possessing terrifying genetic aggressiveness.

Back then, a martial artist recklessly touched Divine Blood with his finger, causing his entire body to turn into pus, dying horribly.

Chen Shouyi reached out, picked up the test tube, and gently shook it, as if stimulated, the halo inside suddenly expanded by a circle.

Compared to before, his power has transformed significantly, but he still wouldn't dare to try such dangerous things recklessly.

However, he has a method for experimentation.

He put the test tube back into the suitcase and locked it, walked excitedly to the bed, then lay down.

Closing his eyes, his mind quickly entered the memory virtual world in the Book of Knowledge.

With a wave of spatial transformation, as if time rewinding, his body appeared again in front of the suitcase.

Chen Shouyi glanced at the test tube in his hand, without hesitation, he pulled out the stopper, a faint oppressive aura immediately spread, to be cautious, he prepared to proceed step by step.

He held the test tube, carefully dropped a droplet onto the palm of his hand.

The blood was quite viscous, much heavier than normal blood, even exhibiting a slight floating sensation in the air.

Initially, the blood showed no change.

His skin was extremely dense and tough, impervious to blades and bullets, it didn't immediately infiltrate like it did with the martial artist who hastily touched Divine Blood before.

However, not long after, the area where his skin came into contact with the Divine Blood began to feel warm and prickly, like having applied chili oil.

After more than ten seconds, the Divine Blood began slowly seeping into the skin.

Watching, his mind suddenly became somewhat hazy; a sense of inexplicable dread and palpitation filled his heart. Fortunately, he seemed to see a towering, majestic, terrifying Fierce Beast roaring at him in anger.

His whole body froze in stillness, his expression changed, his body reddened further, countless swollen veins erupted from the deep layers of his skin.

Suddenly, he jolted awake, completely clear-headed.

He only felt a faint headache, full of drowsiness, a sign of mental exhaustion.

Chen Shouyi examined his palm, the droplet of Divine Blood had vanished completely, and the heat on his body was gradually receding.

"Didn't expect the Barbarian God's will still linger in the Divine Blood, fortunately, I was cautious!" Chen Shouyi was still somewhat apprehensive, rubbing his throbbing temples. Luckily, aside from this negative state, his body showed no signs of genetic collapse:

"This should mean success, not sure whether it's because I'm already a Divine creature, or due to overcoming the Barbarian God's will imprint."

But he's not a biologist studying deities, he couldn't be certain.

Weak-willed individuals, even if they don't experience genetic collapse after consuming Divine Blood, would likely suffer mental breakdown, going completely insane.

This was indeed dangerously close, he wasn't sure about the consequences of mental breakdown in the memory virtual world.

Probably would lead to insanity.

Luckily, he went through it safely.

Now Chen Shouyi's Will stands at 15.3, even amongst Martial Artists, it's top-notch. Facing deities in the memory virtual world is almost routine to him.

A remnant of the Divine Creature's will within a droplet of Divine Blood, he was now barely able to overcome it.

"Wonder what the effect will be?" He thought to himself, opened the attribute panel.

Strength: 16.5

Agility: 17.6

Constitution: 16.5

Intelligence: 14.6

Sensing: 14.2

Will: 15.4

Energy Accumulation: 6.13

Strength increased by 0.1 to 16.5, Intelligence increased by 0.1 to 14.6, even Will was boosted by the earlier impact, increasing by 0.1 to 15.4.

"Huh, this is so obvious!"

This was only a droplet's worth.

The Intelligence increase didn't surprise him much, given the small base, it's easy to boost, but Strength, already at 16.4, increasing again, this effect indeed surprised Chen Shouyi, far stronger than the previous plasma.

Chen Shouyi stayed for quite a while before realizing he was still in the memory virtual world.

This world is so realistic, one could easily mix it with the real world when staying too long.

Chen Shouyi immediately exited.

He glanced at his watch, suddenly feeling a tinge of pain: "Doing so many trials wasted another minute."

That's 0.01 Energy Points, which he'd take over an hour to accumulate.

...

Since his mind hasn't fully recovered, consuming rashly would be incredibly dangerous, with a near 100% failure rate, Chen Shouyi planned to restore his energy before attempting in peak state.

He turned off the gas lamp and returned to bed.

As soon as his head hit the pillow, a strong drowsiness overwhelmed him, soon drifting into a deep sleep.

When he woke up again, it was already one in the morning, having slept for a full four hours.

The bright moonlight fell from the window onto the bed tail, like casting a layer of frost.

Chen Shouyi rose from the bed, feeling mentally refreshed, his body charged with overflowing energy.

He lightly exercised a bit, then opened the suitcase and took out the Divine Blood.

Chen Shouyi gazed at the Divine Blood in his hand, his heart raced dramatically, suddenly feeling some hesitation.

After all, reality and the memory world are not the same.

The Book of Knowledge's evolution of future scenarios is only an evolution.

What if... it differs from reality?

In the memory world, he could be as reckless as he wants, courting death continuously, dying yet revived.

But in reality, he only has one life.
