What Hong Xuanji said, reassured Jiang Ming.
They arrived in the underground room, a secret research facility, that also detained a large number of alien creatures.
"The sublimation of genes to enhance life forms has always been a challenging topic." Hong Xuanji explained simply, "It's too difficult, like a cosmic taboo, hard to break. Over the years, we've developed many gene cultivation skills based on our human genes and the bloodline of another race, but all results are failures. Some seem successful, but the eventual gene collapse is fatal. Integrating the bloodline of another race produces remarkable results, but this brings along ethical issues. Are we humans or beasts? Once integrated with an alien bloodline, the offspring will also retain alien traits - some more human-like, others transforming into beasts."
He spoke indifferently, without much emotion.
