Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

"Who said anything about the first type?"

Theresa blushed. She thought for a while and said, "Forget it. Let's go with the second option. Three to five minutes is better than nothing. After all, after you are injected with the gene-inducing drug, you can continue to develop the real, mature drug that can make me change back completely and never change again. This is just a temporary emergency measure, isn't it?"

"Yes, you're right."

Jade said, "But are you sure you don't want to reconsider? I think your choice is quite wasteful. Really. I strongly suggest you choose the first plan. Honestly speaking, the Theresa form is much more popular than the special Korean form."

"I don't care whether I'm popular or not. I don't care. I don't care. I don't care. In short, I'm going to change back!"

Theresa put her hands on her hips, stomped her feet, glared, and pouted.

"Alright…"

The jade sniffed and melted into a giant ball of liquid metal, which rolled over slowly and enveloped Theresa.

Five minutes later, the metal ball bloomed like a silver flower again, revealing Theresa, who was overjoyed at first and then suspicious.

She touched her face, pinched her breasts, and opened her skirt to peek inside. She said in disappointment, "What's going on? You haven't changed back at all!"

"The gene-inducing drug has been injected into your body and combined perfectly with your cells. However, we still need a 'catalyst'.

Jade said, "Anger. Don't forget your anger.

"Oh, right!"

Theresa took a deep breath. With her hands on her hips, she twisted her hips and gnashed her teeth in fury. Pondering for a long time, her face flushed red, but she was not angry anymore. "The problem is, nothing that has infuriated me has happened recently. The Devourer has been destroyed, and the Blood Demon Sector has been unified. We are all easy to talk to and communicate with. Hela, Natasha, Princess Summer, and the rest of the people on the Emerald Continent have been contacting each other in secret, hoping to reach a reconciliation between the Blood Demon Sector and the world of brightness as soon as possible. You are going to repair Jade and jump back to the Pangu Universe so that everything will be peaceful and smooth. Why am I angry?"

"That would be terrible.

Jade said, "In order to trigger the outburst of the male hormones inside your body, anger is the most direct and effective approach. That's all I can do with my current technology. Why don't you try to recall the soul-stirring, perilous, and infuriating scenes of the past?"

"Yes."

Theresa nodded, lost in distant memories.

She thought of herself. The fierce battle between Black Jack and the Devourer. Black Jack chose to perish together with the Devourer in order to save everyone and to redeem his own soul.

She thought of the war between the Imperium of True Human Beings, the Star Glory Federation, and the Holy Accord Alliance. Countless human beings, including the young emperor Li Jialing, had charged into space resolutely in their broken starships in defense of their dignity and pride.

She recalled that, in her hometown, in the 'Naughty Land Paradise' in the world of martial arts, the Fist King had charged at the 'City in the Sky, Red Spider Lilies', dragging his iron body that was as magnificent as a mountain, while Master Yao unleashed the full strength of the Cultivators in front of billions of citizens of the imperium.

Countless passionate and furious pictures were flashing before Theresa's eyes.

Theresa felt that her breath was short, her heart was beating fast, and her body temperature was soaring.

She could feel that her blood was flooding inside her body like a broken dam, pounding the organs that were responsible for the production of the male hormones. She could feel that her muscles were expanding and hardening inch by inch, as if her ambition and strength had returned to her chest.

"Angry. I'm furious.

Theresa bellowed, "I'm back. I'm back!"

BOOM!

Theresa was surrounded by electric arcs and gold brightness.

She was dancing in the interweaving, dazzling electric arcs.

But a moment later, she was frozen in an awkward posture and screamed in disappointment, "Wait. She hasn't changed back at all, except that her breasts have grown larger! This—this is not the special form at all. This is the mature version of Theresa!"

"Let me see…"

Jade narrowed her eyes and scanned Li Yao from head to toe. "Alright. You are indeed more mature and dominating now. I feel that you are more suitable to be crowned as the Crimson Queen than the young girl in the past!"

"That's not the point at all, okay?"

Theresa gnashed her teeth in fury. "The point is, I haven't changed back at all. On the contrary, I've become… here, here, and here. Even more outrageous and cumbersome!"

"It seems that there was a small error in my experiment. Don't worry about it. This is the way of experiments. You have to keep on fighting even after repeated failures. Failure is the mother of success!"

Jade said irresponsibly. Then she put on a thoughtful face and said, "Or maybe, your anger is not enough and has not reached the critical point yet? Why don't you try to be angrier?"

"I can't be angrier!

Theresa gnashed her teeth. "If you keep being angry, I'm going to kill you!"

"Alright, don't be so excited. Let's think of something else."

"As for the 'sisterly form', it won't last long," Jade said. "In three to five minutes, it will return to the 'girlish form'. You don't need to worry too much."

"How can I not worry?" Theresa sat on the ground and looked at Jade helplessly.

"…Let's talk about something else," Jade said.

"About what? I don't want to talk about anything right now!" Theresa said listlessly.

"What about the Devourer?"

Jade asked, "You don't want to talk, either?"

"Swallowing Beast?"

Theresa was greatly interested. "What did you find?"

"After I reorganized all the pictures and videos after Black Jack broke into the crimson palace, I analyzed the energy ripples released by the Devourer and everything it said and discovered a shocking truth.

"No wonder I didn't find anything like the Devourer in my database, which was once connected to the entire library of the Primeval Civilization.

"By my estimation, it is most likely from… the future.

"From the future?"

Theresa found it hard to believe. "What does it mean? Does it mean that it can go against the flow of time and return to the past?"

"If it is speaking the truth, this is the only answer," Jade said.
