Tiandou Star, as the first Administrative Planet discovered and successfully colonized by humans, has a history of several thousand years. The planet is about half the size of the original Douluo Planet, and 54 percent of its surface is covered by oceans, of which 40 percent are freshwater seas and the remaining 60 percent are saline waters.
Originally, the planet's surface was devoid of life, and it was after the arrival of humans that the entire planet's surface was developed with the aid of scientific Strength.
Although Tiandou Star itself lacked life forms, it possessed an environment 80 percent similar to that of Douluo Planet. According to estimates by human scientists, the emergence of just a single-cell organism might take only tens of thousands of years for a planet to birth a civilization. The interstellar colonization of Douluo Planet undoubtedly greatly accelerated this process.
The reason for naming it Tiandou was to commemorate the once most powerful country on the Soul Land Continent.
Since the disaster caused by soul beasts that occurred ten thousand years ago, Douluo Planet began to evolve due to the misfortune, and humans put aside their past grievances. The three powers that originally divided the world, the Douluo Federation, Tiandou Empire, and Xingluo Empire, decided to merge after nearly a hundred years of consultation and negotiation, still calling it the Douluo Federation. The former Tiandou Empire and Xingluo Empire became two autonomous regions, known historically as the Tiandou Autonomous Region and Xingluo Autonomous Region. They were fully autonomous internally, but shared resources with the federation, thereby accelerating scientific explorations and research.
The Mother Planet, where the Soul Land Continent is located, is now also called the Mother Planet. As the first Administrative Planet colonized, Tiandou Star's development was undoubtedly the most complete. Aside from the overall energy levels unable to compare with the Mother Planet, there wasn't much difference in everything else here. Especially as Tiandou Star is extremely rich in minerals, containing various rare metals, it is precisely because of it that humans have more Strength to continue interstellar migration. One must know that the resources consumed with each interstellar migration are absolutely astronomical.
In Tiandou Star, within the headquarters of the Tiandou branch of the Douluo Federation Science Research Institute, a groundbreaking scientific experiment was underway.
Inside the vast dome laboratory, hundreds of top scientists were busy with their tasks. And in the center of the laboratory, within a gigantic culture dish, a human figure soaked in fluid.
"Prepare to start warming and melting. Add high-concentration biological nutrients. Prepare for soul energy injection," commanded a white-haired elderly scientist from the main position, with a deep voice.
In the culture dish, due to the turbidity of the fluid, it was not clear what exactly was inside, but all the scientists were somewhat tense at the moment.
This was a cryonic revival experiment. The specimen was discovered in the far northern lands of the Mother Planet more than three hundred years ago. The body was preserved extremely well, with no wounds whatsoever. Due to the imperfect technology at the time, no attempt at thawing was made.
In recent millennia, as humans had developed more planets and discovered more substances, the level of science had advanced by leaps and bounds. Multiple successful cryonic revival experiments had already been conducted. Some organisms that had been frozen for several years had also been successfully revived.
And this body before them, conservatively estimated to have existed for over a thousand years, thawing a body that had been frozen for such a long time was unprecedented in human history and had epoch-making significance. Furthermore, according to scientists' estimates, the individual who was frozen might have existed in a very distant era. If the revival were indeed successful, she would bring not only scientific significance but also historical significance.
For today's cryonic revival experiment, the scientists had made thorough preparations and considered countless contingency plans.
"The melting has begun. According to the speed of the ice melting, the experimental subject may have existed for an even longer period."
The longer the ice that had been frozen, the longer the time it would take to melt.
The scientists became somewhat excited; undoubtedly, the longer this body had existed, the greater the significance if she could be revived and live again.
"The melting has ended, the Self Body is revealed. Shall we start injecting Brain Repair Fluid and Organ Repair Fluid?"
"Begin the injection."
"Yes, repeating, begin the injection."
The scientists were busily working in tension.
But in the next instant, a piercing alarm sounded. "Emergency report, injection impossible. The alloy needle cannot penetrate the experimental body, it has broken."
"What?" the leading elderly scientist was shocked, knowing full well the strength of an alloy needle—it could easily pierce even tough Mecha!
"Is it because it's not completely thawed? Has the body itself not thawed?"
"The muscular body has melted successfully, the body is already flexible, but the skin is exceptionally tough, and it just can't be pierced. Chief, what should we do now?"
"Inject soul energy immediately for strong stimulation resuscitation," the chief scientist decisively ordered. But his face was already defeated. Not just him, all the surrounding scientists felt the same.
They all knew very well that the possibility of the test subject being revived was very slim. Based on past experience, the test subjects thawed from freezing had to undergo brain and organ repair as soon as possible to have a chance of living. The best-preserved substance in cryogenic freezing was blood, the most damaged was the brain. If the brain wasn't repaired immediately, the chance of revival was less than one percent, unless it had been frozen for only a few hours. Moreover, this test subject had been frozen for thousands of years. The repair fluids prepared for her were all enhanced versions, and now that they couldn't be injected into the body and were only soaking externally, the effect was sure to be much worse.
As soul energy began to be injected into the incubator, a faint white halo emanated.
The chief scientist sighed, "We were still too careless and did not anticipate this situation. This subject might be very unusual, possibly even a soul beast that has cultivated into a human form, which is why the body's strength is so high. It's too late to change needles now. If I had known, I would have applied to headquarters for the highest strength infusion needles. I'll take responsibility for this."
"Chief, don't say that, nobody considered this issue, any responsibility should be borne by all of us!" a middle-aged man by his side quickly said.
"Wait a minute, look," suddenly, an elderly female scientist pointed towards the incubator.
The scientists turned their gaze in unison only to discover in astonishment that the previously murky liquid inside the incubator had suddenly become translucent, and the human figure within began to look clearer.
"This is..."
When the human figure gradually revealed her true form, everyone couldn't help but stare dumbfounded.
She was a young girl, a breathtakingly beautiful girl. Previously, because she was sealed within a thick layer of ice, they couldn't see her full appearance.
Her body was covered by a silver gown, her hair was also silver, and she had a slender figure. Although her eyes were closed, the long lashes still moved them. Every male researcher present was involuntarily drawn to her, and for a moment they were all struck dumb.
"Quick, increase the soul energy injection. She seems to be absorbing the nutrient solution inside the incubator on her own, replace the nutrient solution, quickly!" The chief scientist almost shouted crazily, also awakening the dazed scientists.
The laboratory became busy again, the scientists acted swiftly.
The incubator was refilled with nutrient solution, soul energy continued to be injected. But then, a bizarre situation occurred – no matter how the nutrient solution was injected, the liquid inside the incubator remained crystal clear. The girl's body seemed like a sea of stars, devouring all the nutrients and the injected soul energy.
This process lasted a full hour.
"Look, did she, did she just frown a bit?" blurted a sharp-eyed young scientist, pointing at the incubator.
No confirmation was needed for his words, because the next moment, a faint heartbeat came through the transducer, "thump, thump, thump."
For the scientists, this sound was simply the music of the heavens! What surprised them even more was that the eyelashes of the girl in the incubator moved and she slowly opened her eyes.
Her eyes were pale purple, dim and listless, revealing extreme fatigue. She looked bewilderedly at the incubator in front of her, raised her hand as if to move it.
"Stop the nutrient solution injection. Release the nutrient solution, inject oxygen," the chief scientist commanded quickly. The last thing someone who has just awakened from being frozen needs is to suffocate. That could lead to a second brain death.
As the liquid drained and oxygen was injected, the girl's gaze seemed to darken further. She murmured in a daze, "I'm so tired, who am I? Where am I?"
