Chapter 3284: Ice Skin and Jade Bones Achieved! The Relationship Between Heart and Mind? Heart Transplant Experiment!

“Why are there more and more patterns on my bones?!”

Wang Teng looked at his bones, touched his chin, and his expression became somewhat strange.

Is this reasonable?

Can human bones really grow like this?

However, it must be said that after these bones have added a few more icy blue patterns, they look even more peculiar.

There is also a sense of cold arrogance and nobility!

Those patterns are like a stroke of genius, exquisite and mysterious, like a work of art.

“My body is truly becoming more and more perfect!”

Wang Teng sighed inwardly.

“And this [Ice Skin Jade Bone] is indeed extremely fitting.”

He glanced at the name of the [Ice Skin Jade Bone] physique again and couldn’t help but smile slightly.

Of course, this physique doesn’t just affect the changes in appearance.

Focusing on appearance is too superficial!

Wang Teng said that he was definitely not that kind of person; he values inner qualities very much, okay?

The benefits of the [Ice Skin Jade Bone] physique are the same as those of the previous physiques.

After the skin, flesh, and bones underwent a transformation, it was equivalent to enhancing the absorption and control of ice-type power, and even gaining insights.

This enhancement was similar to the [Ice Soul Body] he had just acquired, indicating that the two physiques were likely of roughly the same level.

“Both are still at the fourth tier!”

Wang Teng glanced at the attribute values of [Ice Skin Jade Bones], feeling slightly disappointed.

Still at the fourth tier!

Couldn’t these ice-type physiques produce one of a higher tier?

He sighed inwardly and began absorbing the third ice-type physique.

In an instant, a cool, refreshing sensation flowed through Wang Teng’s body, then gathered in his heart.

“Heart!”

Wang Teng’s heart skipped a beat, his gaze becoming somewhat strange.

The primal energy of this physique was actually acting on the heart, which was truly unexpected.

He felt that the coldness seemed to be forming a vortex within his heart, constantly rotating.

“What a comfortable feeling!”

Wang Teng touched his chest and couldn’t help but exclaim.

He felt his heartbeat slow down considerably, and his mind became clear and serene.

“The heart can actually affect the mind?!”

Wang Teng was astonished; this was truly unexpected.

The heart is only one of the five internal organs, and should be related to the fire element, since the heart belongs to fire.

This was evident from his knowledge of the [Five Elements Divine Treasury].

But now he was being told that the heart could also affect the mind, and this effect was not weak.

Wang Teng felt that some of his understanding had been overturned.

He closed his eyes, immediately sensing the state of his heart while simultaneously checking the inherited memories of the Void Devouring Beast.

“Roundy, help me investigate the relationship between the heart and the mind!”

At the same time, he gave Roundy an order.

Major powers should have research records in this area.

If there really was a connection, those powerful figures wouldn’t have let go of such important information.

“The relationship between the heart and the mind?!”

Roundy was stunned for a moment, about to ask why, but seeing Wang Teng’s serious expression, he shut his mouth.

He immediately began his investigation.

Icedess’s figure reappeared beside him, but seeing Wang Teng with his eyes closed as if deep in thought, she didn’t speak immediately.

A moment later, a round, chubby voice rang in Wang Teng’s mind: “I found out, there really is a connection!”

“How so?” Wang Teng suddenly opened his eyes and asked in a deep voice.

“According to research from various forces, the relationship between the heart and the mind is significant, even inseparable.”

The round, chubby voice pondered for a moment, seemingly summarizing.

“Inseparable!” Wang Teng was somewhat surprised by the round, chubby voice’s statement.

The relationship between the two seemed even closer than he had imagined.

Unbelievable!

However, since it was research from various forces, this statement was probably not unfounded, but rather based on scientific evidence. Don’t be fooled

by this world full of mystery and wonder; those powerful beings are actually more scientific than anyone else.

Because martial arts is an extremely rigorous discipline, allowing no room for error!

And only through the most scientific exploration of life can martial arts go further! Higher!

After a long pause, Roundy continued, “Have you ever heard of an experiment?”

“What experiment?” Wang Teng was taken aback, full of suspicion.

Why did they suddenly talk about experiments?

“A heart transplant experiment!!!” Roundy said solemnly.

“What? A heart transplant experiment?” Wang Teng’s eyes widened slightly, his pupils trembling violently.

A heart transplant!

Someone actually did such an experiment!

So heinous!

Wait—

he thought about it carefully. It seemed that similar experiments had been conducted on Earth, though they weren’t very advanced.

If that’s the case, it seemed plausible that such an experiment would occur in the universe.

After all, the technological civilizations of the universe are countless times more advanced than those on Earth.

A heart transplant experiment shouldn’t be difficult for people in the universe, right?

After all, even people on Earth could do a preliminary version.

Ultimately, a heart transplant is simply replacing an organ, except that this organ is directly related to life and death.

Wang Teng’s mind raced, and he quickly composed himself, saying, “Go on.”

“There was once a powerful being in the universe who conducted a heart transplant experiment, and guess what happened?” The round, chubby boy kept him in suspense.

Veins bulged on Wang Teng’s forehead. How could this guy be so malicious? Why keep him in suspense at such a crucial moment?!

He suddenly regretted it.

It seemed the round, chubby boy had learned this trick from him.

He had a strange sense of reaping what he sowed.

He quickly took a deep breath, suppressed his temper, and urged impatiently, “Speak!”

“Pfft!”

Bingdis couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

This was clearly a clone, not the main body!

—” Wang Teng’s face darkened even more.

What a mess!

What kind of bastards had he raised?

Were they all here to laugh at him?

Just you wait!

“You’d better speak quickly, or he’ll get angry.” Bingdis glanced at Yuan Gungun and said. “

Alright!”

Yuan Gungun stuck out his tongue. Seeing Wang Teng’s increasingly dark face, he didn’t dare to beat around the bush anymore and quickly said, “The result of those heart transplants is that the person who had the heart transplant invariably undergoes a drastic change in personality.”

“A drastic change in personality!” Wang Teng couldn’t care less about bothering Yuan Gungun anymore. Hearing this result, his eyes widened in shock.

Heart transplants actually cause drastic changes in personality!

This result is truly—horrifying!

Yes, truly terrifying!

Originally, it was thought that a heart transplant was just replacing an organ; the person would remain the same, and there wouldn’t be any impact.

But unexpectedly, a heart transplant caused a significant change in a person’s personality.

Was the recipient still the same person?

How could such a change not be terrifying?

Wang Teng’s eyes flickered, as if he was pondering the cause of this change.

He needed to think for himself; he couldn’t rely solely on previous research.

Seeing this, Yuan Gun Gun didn’t rush to continue.

He and Bing Ti Si exchanged a glance, both showing a hint of amusement, almost like watching a show.

Few questions could stump Wang Teng.

Now, one had appeared.

Although they didn’t know why Wang Teng had suddenly asked this strange question,

as long as it stumped him, nothing else mattered.

“Heart, brain, soul—”

Three words flashed through Wang Teng’s mind simultaneously. According to his understanding, these three were undoubtedly closely related.

He pondered as he articulated his thoughts.

“First of all, the heart and brain are both human organs and are closely related.”

“Heart-brain! Heart-brain! That’s where this term comes from.”

“Scientifically speaking, the heart and brain interact closely through blood circulation, nerve signals, and hormonal

regulation .”

“The heart provides oxygen and nutrients to the brain, while the brain regulates the heartbeat through the autonomic nervous system.”

“They work together to maintain life activities and cooperate in processes such as emotions and stress.”

Roundy gave Wang Teng a look, signaling him to continue.

This information was only the most basic and not worth mentioning. He wanted to see what else Wang Teng could connect to.

“There’s a saying that the heart houses the spirit!”

Wang Teng paused for a moment before continuing, “The heart can house the spirit, and the spirit here refers to faith, consciousness, the soul, and other such entities!”

“Therefore, the heart should also have a certain relationship with the soul.”

“And in the path of martial arts, the soul is stored in the sea of consciousness, which is in the brain.”

“So, the heart should be able to influence the soul through the brain?”

He was somewhat uncertain, and at this point, he looked at Roundy and Ice Tiss.

Although he was pondering, he had noticed the exchange of glances between the two.

Moreover, Icedes’ sudden appearance wasn’t just for show.

As a god-level being, she must know something.

Wang Teng was also very clear that the two wouldn’t hide anything from him; their silence was likely to allow him time to think things through.

He accepted this as a gesture of goodwill.

“You’ve hit the nail on the head,”

the round-faced man said with a hint of surprise. “The drastic change in temperament you mentioned was actually affecting the brain through the heart, thus affecting the soul!” “

From the heart to the brain!” Wang Teng smiled wryly and shook his head. “I’ve guessed some of it, but it still feels unbelievable.”

“Is a person’s soul, especially a strong one’s, really so easily affected?” “

By the way, what level of martial artists were used in the heart transplant experiments you mentioned?”

He immediately realized a crucial question!

“You finally thought of that.”

The round-faced man’s astonishment deepened.

Wang Teng’s reaction was truly quick; from just a few words, he had grasped another extremely important piece of information.

Wang Teng showed no sign of pride.

Ultimately, he’d only come up with the idea through Yuan Gun Gun’s hints, not entirely through his own thought.

That was the most frustrating thing.

So there was nothing to be happy about.

Besides, was being praised by Yuan Gun Gun really that impressive?

He was no longer the novice who hadn’t even entered the universe.

He wouldn’t be happy for half a day just because of a casual compliment.

Yuan Gun Gun wouldn’t try to disturb his Dao Heart!

Seeing that Wang Teng could still remain calm, Yuan Gun Gun was deeply moved.

People change after all; Wang Teng was no longer the boy he once was!

He felt a strange sense of defeat!

“The highest level a martial artist can reach in a heart transplant experiment is only the peak of the World Lord level!”

Yuan Gun Gun revealed the truth without hesitation.

“As expected!” Wang Teng thought to himself.

He had guessed it earlier; the heart transplant experiment was probably stuck at the World Lord level.

Between the World Lord level and the Immortal level, there was a huge chasm; the form of life had undergone a tremendous transformation.

Calling it a journey from the mundane to the sacred is not an exaggeration at all.

The souls of immortal beings truly possess immortal characteristics; even without a body, they can regenerate on their own.

How could such a powerful being be easily affected by a heart?

Therefore, when he heard Yuan Gun Gun mention the peak of the World Lord level, he understood immediately.

Perfect timing!

“So, below the World Lord level, the soul of a being is still affected by the heart!”

Wang Teng concluded thoughtfully.

No matter how much he disbelieved it, the experimental results were there, leaving little room for doubt.

“That’s right—”

Yuan Gun Gun nodded, but Bing Ti Si suddenly spoke up: “You two have overlooked a crucial detail.”

“What detail?” Wang Teng looked at her, frowning.

Yuan Gun Gun also looked over, his eyes filled with surprise and doubt.

He had guessed that Bing Ti Si likely knew something, and now it seemed she knew more comprehensively than he had found.

That was understandable.

Bing Ti Si was, after all, a True God-level being; her understanding of the soul and body was far beyond his.

So Roundy also adopted an attentive expression, quietly awaiting Icedes’s answer.

“Before a living being cultivates, its soul mostly resides in its heart and brain,”

Icedes said calmly.

“What?!”

Wang Teng exclaimed, “Before a living being cultivates, its soul mostly resides in its heart and brain? Is there any evidence for this?”

“Evidence!”

Icedes seemed to smile slightly, revealing something astonishing.

“Do you know that heart transplant experiments are just the simplest experiment in people’s research on the heart, brain, and soul!”

Wang Teng: “???”

Roundy: “???”

Both fell silent, their faces showing disbelief, as if they had heard some earth-shattering secret.

Heart transplant experiments were already outrageous in their eyes, and this was just the simplest thing?

What other outrageous experiments could there be?

They couldn’t even imagine!

They could only look at Icedes.

“Icedes, what other experiments?” Wang Teng swallowed hard.

He had a feeling that what Icedes was about to say might be even more explosive than what Roundy had just said!

“For example, the weighing experiment! The weighing brain experiment!” Icedes said calmly.
