Chapter 1937 The First Drop Out.
Felix steeled his heart, deciding to commit to this plan.
Without further ado, he kicked off the gears by requesting the seven celestial hearts to create races with close genetics to humans while also possessing a cultivation system.
The seven celestial hearts held nothing back and manifested many humanoid figures, filling the entire sky.
each figure resembled a human quite greatly but had a slight difference, whether in size, skin color, limbs, or other features.
The seven celestial hearts introduced each race, informing Felix about their best qualities and drawbacks.
All Felix could do was listen with an awed look, feeling like he was watching a deity at work.
"Last but not least, The Elementari are a humanoid race that shares approximately 85-90% of their genetic makeup with humans."
"They have a strong natural connection to the elements, making them able to sense, control, and manipulate their respective element at will."
"They also possess Elemental Aura, allowing them to grow stronger in their respective environments, but weaker in the opposite environments to their elemental affinity."
"Drawbacks, due to their elemental Aura, the Elementari race separate themselves based on their affinities from birth and live in their natural environments exclusively."
"Also, their personalities are heavily affected by their affinities."
'Oh? This sounds more promising than the rest.' Felix raised an eyebrow in intrigue.
The other races might have been good too, but their drawbacks were too much to accept. Some of them had reproduction problems while some could barely live past half a century.
Felix understood that if he wanted to create a whole new race, they needed to survive the cruel hardships of the universe until contact was made with the human race.
Thus, they had to have decent longevity or a reproduction system in case they went through an extinct-level scenario.
God knows that humans went through plenty of apocalypses and emerged on the other side fewer in numbers, but stronger than before.
Felix glanced at his bracelet, knowing that the first batch would come out in the next hours at best.
Felix wasn't the only one expecting as Empress Emily and the rest of the ten rulers were all expecting some hopeful news.
Unfortunately, it couldn't have gone any worse...
Rhyzel, who was believed to have the most promising chance at ascending, came out with his eyes wide open like he just exited hell itself.
Before anyone could react, he let out a husky despairing scream.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!! NO! NO! NO! GET ME BACK IN! MY WIFE!! MY DAUGHTER!! GET ME BACK IN!! I HAVE TO SAVE THEM!!"
He seemed to have completely lost it as he kept begging for the seven celestial hearts to put him inside the same universe.
From the crazed despairing look on his face, he might have bitten more than he could chew...
Sadly, the seven celestial hearts merely announced emotionlessly, "You have failed the trial."
Then, Rhyzel was kicked out of the consciousness space, and his bracelet was destroyed.
As he gazed at the bracelet turning into dust in his shaking palms, Rhyzel was left utterly stunned with a hint of despair clouding his eyes.
Before he could react, his memories of the entire trial and what happened in the first universe were erased, causing him to lose consciousness in his UVR's room under the cold eyes of Empress Emily.
She was the one erasing his memories as she could see that he was about to completely snap...However, she had already extracted everything he had experienced in the first universe to see what caused such a heavy meltdown.
'The best candidate failed in the first universe? Tsk, I understood those humans are useless and unreliable.'
'Empress Emily, as much as I want this project to succeed, it's easier to just embrace the truth...A replacement will never emerge before our universe gets thrown to the Blighted Grounds.'
'How about the rest? Some of them look quite stable.'
The ten rulers conversed telepathically with Empress Emily, displaying that most of them had zero faith in the chosen candidates...The fact that Rhyzel had lost his mind after a single try proved them right.
