Chapter 608: The Taboo of Alchemy—Human Body Refining
The so-called alchemy of fixing the soul is the alchemy of fixing the soul on other objects, and in Chen Anxia's opinion, the mystery of this alchemy can be ranked in the top three ranks of the entire "Fullmetal Alchemist FA".
The other two are naturally the taboo of alchemy, the refining of the human body, and the most cruel alchemy, that is, the alchemy of refining the stone of the sage.
Of course, in the steel world, there is also alchemy related to synthetic beasts, and the mystery is also very high, involving the transformation of genes.
It's just that compared to the other two, the alchemy related to the synthesized beast is a little weaker.
Needless to say, the Philosopher's Stone is the forbidden, as for the taboo of alchemy, the refining of the human body, its users from the beginning of its creation to the present, almost all of them are to resurrect the dead, that is, to bring the dead back to life.
But no one has ever succeeded, and most of the stumps that have been refined are stumps with incomplete physical abilities, and the reasons for this are very complex, and Chen Anxia has been researching them.
The essence of human refining is actually to use the components of the human body, that is, to use the body elements that make up ordinary people to reconstruct a living human body.
Note that it is a living human body, which means that the body that is refined by using the human body is alive, but Chen Anxia, who has read the original book, knows that the human body refining has a big flaw, that is, it cannot be refined into a soul.
In the perception of this world, human beings are considered to be composed of three things: body, soul, and spirit, of which spirit is the bridge connecting body and soul, and body and soul are also closely integrated through spirit.
If a person dies, then the spiritual energy in the body will disappear, which also means that the soul will leave the body uncontrollably, not knowing where to go.
However, if the person is not dead and the spiritual energy in the body has not disappeared, even if the soul is separated from the body, as long as it returns within a certain period of time, the person can come back to life.
This condition is more common in patients who have had an accident and have been in a coma for a long time.
For the refining of the human body, if you want to completely resurrect a person, you must refine the body and soul at the same time, because the refined human body is alive, so it will independently attract the soul that is refined together to achieve the effect of resurrection.
But although the body can be refined, the soul has never been refined, after all, the level involved in the soul is too high, even if the main world has such a high level of science and technology, no one can figure out what the essence of the soul is, let alone this world.
However, if the soul could be refined, that kind of scene made Chen Anxia shudder a little even if he thought about it.
Think about it briefly, if the soul can be refined, what is the cost of it? Do you know that this world is a world that adheres to the principle of equivalent exchange, and the one who is most likely to make an equivalent exchange is another soul?
Therefore, if the soul can really be refined, then the morality of this world may collapse, and that kind of scene makes people feel dark when they think about it.
Because in order to forge a soul, those alchemists will reach out to those who are innocent, and some may even commit massacres for the sake of selfish desires.
And the most important point, is the soul that has been refined really still the original soul? Is the resurrected person really the one who died?
If this can really be done, Chen Anxia is more inclined to think that the person who has been resurrected is just a clone of the original person.
After all, even the body and soul are refined, and the credibility of such an existence is really not high.
However, Chen Anxia's situation is different, the person Chen Anxia wants to resurrect, that is, the soul of the face code, still exists and has not dissipated.
In other words, Chen Anxia only needs to refine the body of the face code, and it is possible to resurrect the face code, which is also the biggest purpose of Chen Anxia coming to this world.
But because the refined body is more like a clone than the original body, this means that the refined body will not be attractive to the soul of the face code.
Therefore, Chen Anxia needs to find another way to fix the soul of the face code into this body, so that in Chen Anxia's expectation, the face code should be able to come back to life.
And after Chen Anxia came to this world, he went everywhere to find alchemy about the refining of the human body and the fixation of the soul.
Among them, although the alchemy of the human body is a forbidden technique, there are many books about the alchemy of the human body, as if the country has no control at all, but seems to have acquiesced to it.
Chen Anxia also knew the reason, all of this was promoted by the man behind the scenes, and even the related alchemy techniques of the original human body refining were also released by the man behind the scenes.
However, on the one hand, the alchemy of the human body is a forbidden art that few people will touch, and on the other hand, the alchemy of the human body is very complicated.
Ordinary alchemists go to research, just like college students go to solve the subject of a graduate student, and ordinary alchemists really can't study it thoroughly, which also leads to the fact that after such a long time, there are very few real successes involving human body refining.
And although Chen Anxia came into contact with the refining of the human body, he did not fully understand the principle of human refining for a while, and furthermore, even if Chen Anxia understood the principle of human refining of the human body, Chen Anxia would not try it immediately.
On the one hand, Chen Anxia didn't want to get in touch with the truth of this world so early, because Chen Anxia didn't know what would happen, and on the other hand, in Chen Anxia's opinion, this human body refining was flawed.
It's very simple, think about it for a while, why all the alchemists who refine the human body end up refining with incomplete stumps, and there must be something wrong with this.
Therefore, before this defect is clarified, Chen Anxia will not refine the human body, and Chen Anxia does not want to refine it into a monster.
Compared with the refining of the human body, there are no books on the alchemy of fixing the soul on the market, and no matter how Chen Anxia looks, he can't find it.
Chen Anxia also noticed through the original book that in the world of steelmaking, perhaps only the mastermind behind the scenes and Edward would know about the alchemy of fixing the soul.
Let's not talk about the mastermind behind the scenes, Edward only knew it after seeing the truth and being forcibly instilled with knowledge at the cost of his left leg.
Later, at the cost of his right arm, Edward rescued Alphons's soul, which had completely lost his body and was sucked into the Gate of Truth, and used his own blood to carve a refining array on the huge armor, fixing Alphonse's soul to the huge armor.
This is what Alphonse looks like now.
......
After Chen Anxia directly stated the purpose, Edward and Alphonse were silent, Alphonse didn't know what to say because he really didn't understand this knowledge, and Edward looked at Chen Anxia with a somewhat complicated mood.
After Chen Anxia said his purpose, he waited quietly.
After a long time, I only heard Edward sigh faintly and said, "Although I don't know what you want to do with such a secluded alchemy, I seem to see me in your eyes, and I can teach you the alchemy of fixing the soul." ”
Hearing this, Chen Anxia unconsciously showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said gratefully from the bottom of his heart, "Thank you." ”
"No, I just hope that what you told me before is the truth, or sooner or later we will meet each other." Edward shook his head in response.
"In the future, you will definitely be on my side, and time will tell." Chen Anxia was very sure.
Seeing this, Edward didn't say anything more, and he didn't know why he was relieved, perhaps because he couldn't be an enemy of such a powerful Chen Anxia.
Alphonse on the side also relaxed when he saw this.
In the next few days, Edward has been teaching Chen Anxia about the alchemy of fixing the soul, I have to say that this alchemy is very complicated, even the current Chen Anxia, he can't learn it for a while, after all, it involves the level of the soul.
However, Chen Anxia roughly understood the principle of this alchemy that fixed the soul, which was actually to use blood to depict a refining array on a certain object, and then make this alchemy formation depicted by blood a bridge between the soul and the body through alchemy.
To put it simply, it acts as a spiritual force, which is used to connect the soul and the body.
After teaching Anxia Chen everything he knew about fixed souls, Edward and Alphonse were ready to return to Central City as they continued their quest for information about the Philosopher's Stone.
Before they left, Chen Anxia solemnly looked at the two brothers and said, "You have to grow up as soon as possible, the uncertainty of the future is getting bigger and bigger, and only by getting stronger can you protect the people you want to protect in the future." ”
Edward and Alphonse couldn't help but glance at each other when they heard this, and then looked at Chen Anxia with a firm expression, "Ah, you don't need to say that we will too, when we become strong enough, we will come and beat you, you have to be prepared." ”
Chen Anxia couldn't help but smile on his face when he heard this, and said, "I'm waiting for you." ”
Saying that, Chen Anxia looked at Edward and Alphons, who had already stepped onto the train, and continued, "If you want information about the Philosopher's Stone, you can go and check the Fifth Research Institute in Central City. ”
"But be careful, you may run into the same two people you met in Leole there, and if you want to go, you'd better be prepared."
Edward and Alphonse couldn't help but pause when they heard this, and did not respond to Chen Anxia's words, but stepped on the train with firm steps and left directly.
Seeing this, the corners of Chen Anxia's mouth were inexplicably upturned, and he said softly, "Wind... It's up again, and it's time for me to keep going. ”
As if cooperating with Chen Anxia's words, there was really a gust of wind blowing, rolling up pieces of fallen leaves, as if bidding farewell to the departing train.
