"Have I made such a mistake that I should still try to stop it?"
Jiang Ling suddenly felt lost. She didn''t know if there was any point in trying to stop it now. If she stopped Indra Sky, then she would be preventing a peerless powerhouse from being born on Earth.
After all, she was very aware of the formidable power of the Void beast''s Void Energy. Just a small amount had allowed her to break through from the mid-phase of the Xuanyang Realm directly to the Mysterious Night Realm. If Indra Sky had absolute experimental capability, how powerful would Bai Qi be after the experiment seeded?
Would Bai Qi truly be the peak powerhouse among humans as recorded in Indra Sky organization''s data, able to shatter the Void with a single move?
If what the experiment records of Indra Sky organization imed was true, then wouldn''t stopping it be disrespecting the sacrifices of all the innocent practitioners who had died? Wouldn''t it mean that all those who died did so in vain?
All of a sudden, Jiang Ling felt utterly bewildered. No matter how she thought about it, she couldn''t bring herself to stop what was happening. She too was a part of this world, and not only did she dream of changing the marriage constraints on cultivators, but she also wanted to free humanity from the threat of the Void and reim a purend for everyone.
Besides, her original intention in creating the Nightfall Organization was indeed to change the marriagews for cultivators, which didn''t sh with Indra Sky''s ultimate goal. She had only stepped in to prevent the deaths of innocent cultivators.
But if Indra Sky''s final experiment were to seed, then the marriagews for practitioners in this world would also be abolished. Humans would no longer need to forcibly pair cultivators with excellent genes to fight against the Void and to produce the next generation.
From this perspective, Indra Sky''s ultimate experiment seemed to align very closely with her own original intentions, even possibly fulfilling them.
Lost in thought, Jiang Ling began to descend from the sky. The True Qi around her body converged, and the Spirit Form in her hand dissipated. She had decided not to go and stop it.
At this moment, the only thing disturbing her peace was the fate of those practitioners who had sacrificed so much to fight against the Void for humanity. Were their grievances to be buried by a single ultimate experiment...?

At this moment, within argeboratory at the bottom of an ind in the Central Area.
Bai Chaojin and a group of researchers dressed in whiteb coats stood outside arge ss pane, behind which were various experimental devices.
To the left of these devices, a huge Void beast with the shape of a bull-horse was firmly fixed to a table, and to the right were various instruments and a white bed. On that bedy Bai Qi, dressed in white.
At this moment, Bai Qi''s entire body was pale. There was no blood flow, no breath, no sign of life at all.
By the side of the white bed stood four researchers in thick armor. One stood in front of the Void beast, two at the instruments, and another was continuously noting down data beside Bai Qi.
Amongst this array of equipment, many tubes were pierced into the back of the Void beast, and the machines were seemingly processing the Void Energy being drawn from the beast. Eventually, through a smaller catheter, the transformed Void Energy was infused into Bai Qi''s neck.
...
"Leader, is it really okay to start the experiment like this?" asked a sweaty researcher, clenching a report in his hands, gazing anxiously at Bai Chaojin.
"What are the calcted results for the experiment conducted in theboratory in Linglong Bay when applied to an ordinary practitioner? How did it pan out?" Bai Chaojin inquired.
The researcher wiped the sweat from his forehead, handed the report to Bai Chaojin, and said nervously, "Leader, the calcted results of this set of data exceeded our expectations. While a practitioner in the mid-phase of the Xuanyang Realm like Jiang Ling can be sessful, the sess rate for other practitioners drops to zero."
Bai Chaojin frowned, "What about the calcted results for Qi''er?"
The researcher frowned and replied, "Princess Bai Xi''s final calcted data is even stranger. We can''t evenprehend the results. The fluctuations in various data are massive, but whenbined, theye out to precisely 50%. However, within that 50%, there''s an unpredictable factor—the Spiritual Root of Fang Ren... it''s too unique."
"How unique?" Bai Chaojin furrowed his brow. "Isn''t that Spiritual Root what we use to suppress the Void Energy?"
"Originally, that''s what we thought, but it turns out that wepletely misunderstood it." The researcher sighed. "That grey Spiritual Root doesn''t just suppress Void Energy; it''s also constantly absorbing it! It refines energy that has already been processed a second time, and the Void Energy bes extremely pure after being refined twice.
It''s directly conflicting with Princess Bai Xi''s Life Spiritual Root within her body—they are ipatible!"
The researcher continued with fervor, "What''s more, Princess Bai Xi''s Life Spiritual Energy is incredibly potent, and it has remained in bnce within her body only because of the grey Spiritual Root.
But just now, when we began refining Void Energy, the grey Spiritual Root abruptly abandoned suppressing Princess Bai Xi''s Spiritual Root, leading to a breakout of her Life Spiritual Energy which started to sh with the Void Energy!"
Bai Chaojin spoke with a frown, "If we stop the machines from refining the Void Energy and let the grey Spiritual Root do the refining, what will be the oue?"
The researcher was surprised, "Currently, we only know the double refined Void Energy causes conflict, but we''re not sure about the once-refined Void Energy... we haven''t been able to calcte that result yet."
"Go quickly! Stop the energy transfusion for Qi''er and check her meridians and Spiritual Root status!" Bai Chaojin shouted.
"Yes!"
Instantly, the entirergeboratory sprang into action, as every researcher began conducting small-scale experiments on each subject—preparations for making calctions about Bai Qi''s final oue.
But even such small-scale experiments still cost the lives of hundreds of practitioner subjects.
