Chapter 214: Chapter 206: Fantasizing

It was just low-grade Genetic Serum, but even a level one success could

extend lifespan by fifty years; level two could extend it by a hundred years; and level three could extend it by a hundred and fifty years.

And after using all three of the most powerful body-enhancing elixirs, an ordinary person’s lifespan could at least reach between one hundred to one hundred and twenty years.

That meant that with just one use of a level one Genetic Serum, an ordinary person’s lifespan reaching one hundred and fifty, or even one hundred and seventy years, would not be an issue.

Those with even better luck, after using all three levels of Genetic Serum, could live up to four hundred and twenty years...

And that’s not even the pinnacle; if there are low-grade Genetic Serums, who’s to say there aren’t intermediate and advanced-grade ones?

It’s mind-blowing, just thinking about it makes one’s blood boil.

Lu Yun felt that in at most another twenty years, she would definitely be able to refine the third body-improving elixir. After that, difficult as level one Genetic Serum might be, surely it could be accomplished in thirty, fifty years? For those incredibly lucky, as long as they could timely take the elixirs she refined, a prolonged lifespan would not be just a dream. Moreover, the physical quality of those who took these elixirs would be directly improved, making them capable of withstanding more strenuous activities...

Everything in this world has its pros and cons, and a significant increase in human lifespan isn’t necessarily all that good—it might lead to a series of social issues she could never anticipate.

But it goes without saying, longevity, and the enhancement of physical quality could also mean that technology might advance by leaps and bounds, allowing scientists more time to turn what’s in their imagination into reality.

And humans with particularly good physical quality would be able to adapt more quickly and aptly to other planetary environments, making them more suitable for exploring new habitable planets in space. Maybe by then, the scenes from science fiction movies wouldn’t be just fiction anymore...

Once the Genetic Serum is successfully refined, it will benefit not just one person or one family.

But she still needed to wait, wait until her and Shitou’s Psychic Power Cultivation reached a higher stage, to better protect herself and her family. Wait until Shitou rose to a certain height.

By then, these things could be brought out, and it’s foreseeable that not just one nation would benefit by then, but her own country would definitely be the first and would benefit the most... This was also Shitou’s greatest motivation for striving upwards.

"Xiaoyun, I always find it unbelievable," Xia Yuan said, "Do you really think you could refine Genetic Serum that extends human lifespan to such extents? A maximum of four hundred and twenty years, wouldn’t they all turn into old demons by then?" How could Xia Yuan not be moved? But it still felt unreal to her, like a dream.

Since Lu Yun successfully refined the second body-improving elixir, and the Pharmacopoeia flipped to the page with information about Genetic Serum, she didn’t hide it from Lu Aiguo, Xia Yuan, and Shitou, and directly told them about it.

Initially, after the excitement settled, everyone quickly sobered up, inevitably worrying about various concerns. Good things in hand, if not protected by absolute strength, would be a curse rather than a blessing.

"Four hundred and twenty years, what about it? The biggest benefit of using Genetic Serum to transform the body is definitely not just the extension of lifespan; it also slows down the aging of appearance. By then, someone who is over four hundred years old will just be in their middle to late years in terms of body functions and appearance. Besides, the psychic power we cultivate isn’t cultivated in vain.

The same elixir, the same Genetic Serum, there will be a qualitative difference between those who can cultivate and those who cannot. Plus, who knows what the next page of the ’Pharmacopoeia’ will bring?

I was wrong before; I believe that dad, as the president of Lu Group, won’t just sit in his position until he’s just over a hundred years old—indeed, he could likely reach several hundred years. Who knows, perhaps in the future, humans will only be considered adults at fifty?"

Lu Yun laughed loudly, "Mom is far too young at just over four hundred years to become an old demon. The distance between planets in our universe, the close ones are at least a few dozen light-years away, and the far ones hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of light-years away are all highly possible to exist.

If we can still be alive after a few hundred years, see cosmic spaceships being made, and witness new habitable planets discovered in the cosmos, by then, it might take months or even years to travel between two planets. That’s when you won’t think a lifespan of over four hundred years is that long."

"If I could really see such a day, then this lifetime would be incredibly worthwhile."

Lu Aiguo, seeing Xia Yuan already dumbfounded, also laughed out loud, "My girl, you have to work harder; your mom and I are counting on you to broaden our horizons."

"Really, one has a bigger heart and imagination than the other,"

Xia Yuan also began to laugh, first she teased her cheerfully laughing father and daughter, then couldn’t help but indulge her own musings for a while, musing to herself, "Who would complain about maintaining their looks and living longer?"

Hahaha--

Lu Aiguo and Lu Yun couldn’t help but burst into laughter seeing her in that state.

"Mom and Dad, this time let’s give Grandpa and Grandma a bath with the elixir first. My aunts, uncles, second uncle, second aunt, two maternal aunts and uncles, and several cousins can all wait, but Grandpa and Grandma are getting older. I’m afraid if we keep waiting, they won’t be able to wait for the final Genetic Serum."

Even with confidence in her heart that she could produce the Genetic Serum within a few decades, Lu Yun clearly felt that the difficulty of the third body-strengthening elixir was much greater than the second, and one can only imagine how much more difficult the following stages would be?

Forbidden fruit is tempting, but reaching for it isn’t always as easy as it seems.

Keeping it a secret is important, but she didn’t want her dad to watch Grandpa and Grandma die of old age with regret and sadness.

Life and death are beyond human control, but now that she held such a heaven-defying thing in her hands, it would be too late for regrets if she withheld it from Grandpa and Grandma due to various concerns.

As for others, it really was a matter of great importance, and they could only continue to wait.

Lu Aiguo’s hand trembled, and he couldn’t bring himself to speak a word of objection.

He too worried about his parents’ advanced age, not being able to wait. Even though they had used intermediate-grade Body Strengthening Elixir and were in good health, full of life every day, appearing no worse than vigorous middle-aged men.

His parents had even jokingly lamented that by spending a few years caring for their grandchildren, they managed to rid themselves of all their hidden ailments. And where did you hear of anyone else achieving that by caring for grandchildren?

Lu Aibing was the most complacent, claiming that it’s because no other family had someone like him—a son-in-law who refused to have children for many years, only to then have three especially healthy and adorable triplets when he finally did.
