Chapter 359
“Try to inject as little venom as possible, don’t kill this one . ” Seeing the Centipede preparing to attack the second mouse, Su Jing emphasized again .
“The first mouse wasn’t dead before . ” The Centipede stopped and a tender voice came into Su Jing’s ear . This centipede should be very young, and the voice passed through Su Jing’s ear was similar to the little boy . However, the lifeform from the Renegade Immortal Universe has higher intelligence . Communication with them is more fluent than ordinary animals, and it is like talking to normal people .
“Not dead? How?” Su Jing was stunned for a moment, and then reached out and touched the rat with straight legs . Its body had become cold and it was not breathing . How is this not dead .
“Wait . ” Five seconds later, the rat’s heart suddenly gave a beat so faint that it would not have been detected if not for Su Jing’s sensitivity . Su Jing’s eyes lit up, he waited a minute or so and found out that the rat’s heart is beating every five seconds .
“Is it really not dead?” Su Jing was shocked . Generally speaking, the smaller the animal, the faster their heartbeats, the elephant’s heart rate is 20-30 times a minute, the human heart rate is 60 to 100 times a minute, the mouse Heartbeats are about five hundred times a minute . However, the heartbeats of this rat are about twelve times a minute . In this state, can it really not die?
“It’s really not dead, this way, it’s easy to preserve the prey and keep the meat fresh . ” The Centipede explained .
“How long will this state last?” Su Jing asked .
“About two days, two days later, It will wake up but it will be weak, although it may not causing much harm, it may initiate resistance . Therefore, it is best to eat the prey within two days . If it can’t be eaten, I just had to inject the venom a second time after the prey wakes up, but repeated venom injections may kill the prey . As soon as the prey dies, the meat will easily deteriorate and become bad . ” The Centipede seemed to think that Su Jing wanted to teach it how to deal with the prey and it explained in detail .

“So it is . It’s very effective . ” Su Jing’s eyes are slightly bright . The venom is the legendary ‘Playing Dead Dose’ . The rat’s heart rate is so much faster than that of the human . After the injection, the rat’s heart rate is reduced to once every five seconds . If people are injected with it, will their heartbeat become even slower?
In that case, even if you go to the hospital for examination, you will be judged dead . Of course, the venom is very powerful even if it is only used as an attack weapon . It will take you two days to wake up even if the enemy doesn’t die at once . Isn’t that enough time to dispose them?
“Change the amount of venom you inject, let’s see if it has some other effects . ” Su Jing commanded and the Centipede did as he was told . It Injected various amounts of venom into many mouses . After experimenting with dozens of mice, Su Jing found that the more venom is injected, the slower the heartbeats and the better the effect of False Death . The higher the dose, the closer it will be to real death . If you inject too much, you will die . On the contrary, one would look drunk if they are injected with too little venom . Rats do not feign death, but after a period of slow action, they return to normal .
“If I can experiment on people and then control the amount of venom, I can work out three potions: Steady Dose, Playing Dead Dose, and Death Dose . This venom is definitely very useful, but whom do I experiment with?” Su Jing Suddenly regretted sending Song Junhao to prison . Otherwise, wouldn’t it be nice to use him for experiments?
“By the way, can this venom be used as medicine?” Su Jing suddenly thought of this in his mind . As everyone knows, poisons are often used as a medicine, otherwise, snake venom won’t sell so well . Although snake venom can be fatal, it can be used well in Cancer treatment, Anticoagulation, Hemostasis, Labor pain, beauty, and others . Centipede poison is similar to Snake Venom .

This venom is from the giant centipede in Renegade Immortal Universe and it is magical, what type of medicinal use will it have?
Su Jing suddenly remembered a report he had read . It is said that scientists have studied the body shape, lifespan and other characteristics of various lifeforms, and finally, they have found a decisive indicator of the length of life – heartbeat times .
Specifically, in the limited lifespan of each animal, regardless of their species and size, the number of heartbeats they will have is about 1 . 5 billion . So, generally speaking, the faster the heartbeat, the shorter the lifespan, and the slower the heartbeat, the longer the lifespan .
This phenomenon is also applicable to humans . Those who live long generally have slower heartbeats, while those who have fast heartbeats are generally short-lived . Of course, accidents such as illnesses and accidents are excluded .
Athletes’ heartbeats are fast when they are exercising, but when they are resting, their heartbeats are much slower than ordinary people . Because the heart gets better exercise, the myocardial fiber and the ventricular wall becomes thick and the heart itself expands, so it can meet the body’s needs without having to pump so fast . Therefore, people who exercise regularly actually have fewer heartbeat, and their bodies will be healthier and they will live longer .
So there is a theory that heartbeats determine lifespan .
Su Jing wondered, could this centipede venom be used in this regard, or could it even be used to practice the legendary Taoist Breathing Technique? Wouldn’t people be able to live as long as a turtle?
“This venom is worth studying . I have to find a chance to test it . Of course, it is best to find someone who I can trust, or it will be easy for this information to leak . After all, those researchers will be very excited when they see this venom?”
Su Jing took a small glass bottle and let the Centipede inject a little venom in it . He found that the venom was white and translucent . He carefully covered it and put it in the storage bag . It was ready to be tested .
“So tired!” The Centipede had been experimenting in accordance with Su Jing’s requirements and he had wasted a lot of Venom and it was weak .
“These are rewards for you . Eat them quickly . I’ll buy you a lot of insects and to let you eat enough . ” Su Jing said while throwing two Jade Fang fishes to the Centipede . The Centipede quickly ate them, calling “Delicious” . Obviously, he also likes eating them .
Now that Su Jing knows the magic of this Centipede Venom, Su Jing will naturally treat it better and keep it well .
However, in the future, he can’t feed it with Jade Fang Fishes . He has to mix it with ordinary food, otherwise, the Jade Fang Fishes will be consumed too quickly . He just asked about this to the Centipede . It likes to eat all kinds of insects like an ordinary centipede, but there are not so many insects in the village that are enough for this centipede to eat . It’s totally impossible to catch it by himself . He can only buy a large number of insects for feeding fish and poultry . Anyway, insects are not expensive .
“There are guests . ”
“It’s Wang Zhuo, Boss Ji, Old Zhou . ”
The two parrots flew in to report and Su Jing was a little confused . Wang Zhuo’s arrival was normal . Based on his relationship with him, he had a lot of business to talk with him . He might come here to eat and talk but Boss Ji and Old Zhou . Who are they? Confused, he went down to open the door . (To be continued ~ ^ ~)

Coerced into binding his soul to hers, Kiel finds himself pulled into a web of secrets, where one wrong step could end in his untimely demise. Who, or what is Elaru Wayvin really? What is her relation to the ruling 15 noble mage families? What is the source of The Ink - a mysterious plague spreading through the continent? What is the Aetherneal bond between them and what has it turned them into? What is the truth behind gods and divine magic? Why has the third race of Halnea - the Ascended, mysteriously disappeared, and what is the connection between the remaining two races? In the search for truth, Kiel and Elaru enroll at the most prestigious University of Magic. Yet, between awkward social events, falling in love, thrilling competitions, blood curling battles, irritating peers, and damnable love rivals, there is little time for studying. And as if avoiding sinister plots from all sides wasn't difficult enough, their new detestable mentor takes them on a voyage into the uncharted forbidden zone filled with unspeakable secrets, ancient riddles, man-eating monsters, and deadly traps. A quest that just might end up changing the fate of the entire world. ————————————————————————————————————- What do readers say about it? ————————————————————————————————————- "Aethernea is my absolute favorite read on wattpad, I love it as much as I love Harry Potter and The Mortal Instruments. You have such an amazing way to make the words flow and unbelievable descriptions. Unique characters and a great story line. All the small clues and mystery in the humor and fantasy just makes the book perfect in my opinion. I read all chapters in two days! Less than 48 hours even! I'm REALLY looking forward to the next update, the world of Aethernea is so deep and well thought out, it's beautiful and magical. God I can't believe how creative you are, so many small details with so many families and stories everywhere. Purely fantastical, I admire you." - astro-logical from Wattpad "I love love love Aethernea so much! It is amazing how you created this new world with different creatures, magics, looks, illnesses, and evil! I was blown away by your explanation of the Mana pools and how to weave magic! Simply stunning really! You are one of my favorite authors and Wattpad and I am so glad I stumbled upon Aethernea because it is worth all of my time reading!" - Adriana_V_Blade from Wattpad "I absolutely am loving Aethernea so far. I am certain you belong in the ranks among J.K. Rowling, Rick Riordan, Suzane Collinings, and many more great and wonderful authors. You opened up a whole new world for me, which only a few great authors have accomplished. While it's true I am pulled into each and every book, few are able to capture me to the point of inescapability. Though, somehow, you have managed this feat. I thank you for this and more! You are a wonderful author and can't wait for more to come!" - daughterofpercabeth7 from Wattpad "WOW! just caught Aethernea in gravity tales! Just when I was getting tired of most xianxia novels this appears and completely blows my mind! I really like the depth and the humorous touch you give the characters and it seems you have the storyline well thought out since you are always hinting about things in the past and the future. It has been such an enjoyable experience that I couldn't stop reading, finishing it in just one day and laughing my way through most of the episodes. But what keeps me so excited for what's coming is the magic system and the professions of the world you are creating.The magic mechanics have such a huge potential! They are simple but at the same time they open so many possibilities. Even though we still only understand the basics of transmutation and augmentation, I expect them to enable fights where there is need of quick thinking and skill, and not just brainless overpower of every opponent. In a way this makes me reminiscent about The Mistborn Series by Brandon Sanderson, which are one of my favorite series ever. The thing that sets Mistborn apart from any other series is that the mechanics are so well thought out that they could be used to create a super cool triple A video game and I cannot help but hope Aethernea reaches the same level or even surpass it. I really think it has that potential. Really hope this series gets the attention it deserves. As for me, Thursdays and Sundays just got a whole more exciting! =)" - AlexMLion "Your writing is fantastic and riveting, the chapters and character flow so smooth, and it captivates the reader with the many twist and turns that tricks one mind into thinking this is about to happen, when suddenly the exact opposite happens. You truly are in inspirational writer with a brilliant mind that can see and put words into chapters and into this one truly awesome book. Thank you!" - AshleyStaar from Wattpad "I loved this story, such detailed description and accurate words, both Kiel and Elaru completely caught my attention, your writing style is just beautiful and the plot is astounding and it's just the first episode! This kind of fantasy stories are my favourite, it has a lot of magic in it, rivalry and sense of humour." - BlackWhiteD from Wattpad

Recruit - An Infinite Labyrinth prequel
A prequel to The Infinite Labyrinth. The year is 1816. The British Empire is in full swing, under the auspices of King George III. The Infinite Labyrinth has been pouring out its product from beyond our reality and fostered a new industrial revolution. Times are changing, and the people of London are feeling the winds of the revolution while British Professionals push into the Labyrinth. The newly formed Artefact Hunting Company is looking for recruits, and they have new technology to help them. From the slums of London, they aim to recruit a new wave of Professionals. And make Zacharias and the Earl of Carnavon lots of money. So, for Rowan Rivers and a handful of lucky ones, it's time to head into the Labyrinth, and discover what makes it different from England. And what makes THEM different? Recruit is a bunch of chapters I wrote to create to the setting, mood, and game systems of the Infinite Labyrinth. It is NOT a complete story in the classic sense. It's more of a slice of life view of early days of a normal Professional from the Infinite Labyrinth, and it's heavy on info-dump. It's 90% canon - there's probably a bit of a difference between how some characters and common behaviour are portrayed here and how they'll come out in the main story. Set two years before the events that kick-start the main series, it features some of the secondary/peripheral characters of the Infinite Labyrinth and will tell you all about the basic mechanics of the Labyrinth's RPG system. It can be considered a spoiler, as the characters in the Infinite Labyrinth are going to need to figure out all that, on their own. But if you like a much deeper exposition in the mechanics, here it is. The entire prequel is about 80 pages long.
