Chapter 655: Causing a Sensation

Pure Nine-Lotus Lanterns

At Guangbai Pharmaceutical Factory, Qiu Chuanhua had just finished analyzing the properties of a new material. He walked out of the lab and picked up his phone, routinely checking for missed calls and messages.

Scrolling down, he suddenly saw a very unfamiliar number.

He subconsciously ignored it and began to scroll through his messages.

With the eyesight of a Golden Core True Person, he finished reading in an instant.

Then, Qiu Chuanhua saw the text content sent from that unfamiliar number.

"Hello, Senior Qiu, I am Chen Mobai from Wuqi Dao Academy, Class of 5012. I presumptuously obtained your contact information from Teacher Che, mainly because I opened a very interesting pill formula when opening a Void Mystery Box..."

Qiu Chuanhua naturally knew the name Chen Mobai; in fact, it was practically a household name.

After all, not everyone could earn the title of "God Transformation Potential."

One must know that even Qiu Chuanhua, who managed to form his Golden Core, was considered a top-tier genius among his peers.

But even he had little confidence in reaching the Nascent Soul stage, let alone the God Transformation realm.

As Qiu Chuanhua mused on Chen Mobai's life, he nonchalantly glanced at the digital pill formula. He generally had little interest in items acquired from mystery boxes.

This was because, after thousands of years of development, the Immortal Sect's current pharmacological theory was at its peak. He did not believe that a pill formula from hundreds or thousands of years ago could interest him.

Thinking this, Qiu Chuanhua read the beginning.

Then, his eyes widened!

What kind of pill formula was this?

He had never seen it before!

Were there spiritual plants in the Immortal Sect called "Other Shore Flower" and "Nine-Dragon Sophora Horn"?

Could it be a prank by a senior Golden Core, intentionally placing a jumbled pill formula in his domain?

Initially, Qiu Chuanhua thought this, but with his professional expertise, the more he read, the more startled he became.

Because the system of this pill formula was completely different from that of the Immortal Sect.

He could only vaguely determine that this might bring a significant impact to the Immortal Sect's alchemy system.

"Junior Chen, from which senior's domain did you obtain this pill formula?"

After finishing it, Qiu Chuanhua eagerly called him. Void mystery boxes listed on the Immortal Sect's network could generally be traced to their origin.

"Hello, Senior Qiu, this mystery box was recovered from the Pluto battlefield. Fortunately, the owner of this mystery box left a notebook..."

Chen Mobai did not conceal anything and recounted the story of Yu Jirong.

When Qiu Chuanhua heard that it was an Underworld Race's pill formula and tied to their cultivation method, he instantly understood its value.

"Junior Chen, with the Immortal Sect's current technology, this pill formula would likely require thousands of attempts to test out a replacement method..."

Qiu Chuanhua gave his professional opinion because some of the medicinal ingredients in the Rejuvenating Spiritual Water were not found in the Immortal Sect. Even with their peak alchemy techniques, they could only proceed by trial and error in this situation.

"Is that so? I'm actually mainly curious about this Asura Dharma Body, which is why I wondered if I could refine the Rejuvenating Spiritual Water. That way, I could attempt another path to Nascent Soul formation."

Chen Mobai said regretfully. Qiu Chuanhua's eyes immediately widened upon hearing this.

What Asura Dharma Body?

Another path to Nascent Soul formation?

Was it the Underworld Race's cultivation method mentioned in the pill formula?

Qiu Chuanhua immediately pressed for more information. Chen Mobai feigned hesitation for a moment, then revealed details about the Asura Dharma Body.

"Junior Chen, the value of this Asura Dharma Body is immense. Have you reported this matter to the Headmaster?"

After hearing everything, Qiu Chuanhua immediately spoke with a serious expression.

Even though the Immortal Sect completely opened access to cultivation methods, to this day, a unique path to Nascent Soul formation like the Dharma Body Nascent Soul was unheard of.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this openness that everyone could obtain the most orthodox insights and methods for Nascent Soul formation, so no one bothered to explore other paths.

"I've spoken with Teacher Che, and he should have reported it to the Headmaster. I also registered the items I obtained with the Realm Gate Administration Bureau."

Chen Mobai spoke truthfully. Since he had decided to use the Immortal Sect's power to refine the Rejuvenating Spiritual Water, he naturally couldn't hide the items he had obtained from the void mystery box.

Of course, he also couldn't deliberately publicize them too much.

For Chen Mobai, this was very simple.

Just use the two most orthodox channels.

When opening mystery boxes recovered from outside realms, the obtained items needed to be reported to the Realm Gate Administration Bureau, as no one could guarantee whether they contained anything harmful to Terra Star's environment.

As an Immortal Sect Councilor, Chen Mobai had always been law-abiding, so he reported the list, which included some special products from the Heavenly River Realm, to his contact, Lin Dongsong.

However, Lin Dongsong was only a Foundation Establishment cultivator, so he didn't fully understand the importance of the Asura Dharma Body. He still needed to report the items to his superior.

In contrast, within the Wuqi Dao Academy, because Chen Mobai himself was already considered part of the upper echelon, the feedback was much more timely.

After Chen Mobai told Che Yucheng about the matter, the latter immediately gave him Qiu Chuanhua's phone number, then went directly to Reverend Chengxuan.

While Chen Mobai was speaking with Qiu Chuanhua, Che Yucheng's call suddenly came in.

Chen Mobai could only apologize to Qiu Chuanhua and then answered his teacher's call.

"'Asura Dharma Body' has already been reviewed by the Headmaster and confirmed not to be part of the Immortal Sect's system, but whether it can be cultivated still requires multi-party expert verification."

Che Yucheng explained his side of the situation. Chen Mobai nodded; this was within his expectations.

"This matter is of great importance, so all the items you obtained from the mystery box might be taken by relevant departments of the Immortal Sect for analysis. But don't worry, various departments with authority will certainly want to get involved, and there will be some bickering for a while. Wang Shuye can easily arrange for our own people to ensure your contribution won't be overlooked."

Chen Mobai didn't really care about what Che Yucheng said. After all, he had always maintained a low profile in the Immortal Sect. Even a great contribution wouldn't make him leave Danxia City.

Chen Mobai had already planned to only emerge from seclusion after forming his Nascent Soul, when he could transplant the Jade Phoenix Tree into his domain.

By then, with Wuqi Dao Academy's support and his status as a Nascent Soul Reverend, he would at least be given the official position of Vice Hall Master of one of the Immortal Sect's Three Great Halls.

It was even possible that he would reach the peak upon emerging, becoming one of the Three Hall Masters.

He was that stable and cautious!

Thinking of this, Chen Mobai immediately righteously declared to Che Yucheng that he was willing to donate the items he obtained without compensation, as long as they could be useful to the Immortal Sect and the Dao Academy.

He only requested that once the Immortal Sect had thoroughly researched the Asura Dharma Body, they provide him with the cultivation methods and the necessary resources.

Chen Mobai's words touched Che Yucheng, who praised his noble character, truly worthy of being his disciple.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Mobai waited another day.

Finally, the Realm Gate Administration Bureau realized the value of the "Asura Dharma Body." Bureau Chief Xue Yuzhuo personally called Chen Mobai.

"Councilor Chen, please ensure that all items obtained from the mystery box are on the list without any omissions. The Immortal Affairs Hall is currently holding a meeting and will soon dispatch a joint expert panel to Danxia City to inspect and appraise the items on the list. Each item will have three experts come. If an item is missed, they will need to re-assemble personnel and hold another meeting, which would be very troublesome."

Xue Yuzhuo first conveyed the highest directive from the Immortal Sect, then mentioned something that greatly surprised Chen Mobai.

"The Immortal Affairs Hall is inviting a Nascent Soul Reverend to lead the expert panel. Since it involves pill formulas, it might be one of those three, but Reverend Yuyi is very interested in the Asura Dharma Body and has volunteered..."

Generally speaking, if a Nascent Soul Reverend spoke, the Hall Masters of the Immortal Sect's Three Great Halls would show respect, especially the almost-retired Hall Master of the Immortal Affairs Hall, who would certainly not offend someone of the same rank.

As for Reverend Yuyi, Chen Mobai only knew that she was the Headmaster of the Heavenly Tome Academy and a Fifth-rank Talisman Master of the Immortal Sect.

Although she had a deep background, Chen Mobai was still somewhat nervous about the possibility of his tampering with the mystery box being exposed, especially upon hearing that a Nascent Soul Reverend would personally lead the team.

After talking with Xue Yuzhuo, Chen Mobai relayed their conversation to Che Yucheng, hoping to get more detailed information from the Wuqi Dao Academy.

"Don't worry, Reverend Yuyi is a very good person. She is only interested in knowledge, which is why she voluntarily went to the Heavenly Tome Academy, specifically to comprehend those heavenly tombs."

Upon hearing Che Yucheng's words, Chen Mobai felt a little relieved.

Three days later, the various departments of the Immortal Affairs Hall reached an agreement and assembled what could be called a luxurious expert panel, heading to Danxia City.

Of course, before the expert panel arrived, Ye Yunge had already notified Chen Mobai in the name of Kaiyuan Hall, asking him to prepare for cooperation.

After all, as a Golden Core True Person, unless it was a superior-subordinate relationship by duty, only an order from Kaiyuan Hall could command Chen Mobai.

Reverend Yuyi was a female cultivator wearing glasses, elegantly simple clothes, with refined manners and fair skin.

Upon her arrival, she gently nodded to Chen Mobai, affirming his contribution to the Immortal Sect this time. She stated that once the expert panel confirmed the precise value of the items obtained from this mystery box, there would be a generous reward.

Chen Mobai had no expectations whatsoever for the Immortal Sect's reward; he estimated it wouldn't even be as much as his Xiaonanshan Shop's annual income in the Eastern Wilderness.

So he calmly nodded, pointing to a long table on top of Danxia Mountain, which was filled with the items he had 'added' and nominally obtained from the three void mystery boxes.

Reverend Yuyi was slightly surprised by his calm reaction but quickly got to the main point.

Each member of the expert panel had a copy of the list. After Reverend Yuyi confirmed the quantities were correct, they approached the long table in groups of three, put on gloves, carefully picked up the items, and began their appraisal.

Among them, one of the experts appraising the Rejuvenating Spiritual Water pill formula was Qiu Chuanhua.

Evidently, he was arranged by the Wuqi Dao Academy. Besides him, there were two other experts who graduated from Wuqi Dao Academy, and Chen Mobai greeted them all without hesitation.

In addition to the Wuqi Dao Academy personnel, Chen Mobai also exchanged pleasantries with the experts from Butian Dao Academy.

At this moment, Reverend Yuyi had already picked up the soul-nurturing wood inscribed with the Asura Dharma Body and the Rejuvenating Spiritual Water and began examining it.

After she finished, it was Qiu Chuanhua's turn to examine the pill formula. Finally, a Fourth-rank Spiritual Plant Master from Gou Mang Dao Academy named Zhuang Wei took over, appraising the origin of the soul-nurturing wood.

Zhuang Wei quickly confirmed that it was not found on Terra Star.

At this time, three experts had already used special instruments and cultivation techniques to view the contents sealed inside the black jade boxes through the restrictions.

Chen Mobai saw the clear outlines of the Other Shore Flower and Nine-Dragon Sophora Horn appear on the instrument screen.

But only he knew about these two items. Although the Rejuvenating Spiritual Water mentioned these two main ingredients, it only briefly described their medicinal properties and effects.

"Reverend, the seals on the surface of these two boxes are indeed completely different from the Immortal Sect's system, but they are relatively crude. We can attempt to open them."

Yi Shao, the expert responsible for the black jade boxes, reported to Reverend Yuyi. The latter looked at the screen and asked a question.

"How confident are you?"

"Ninety percent!"

To everyone's surprise, Reverend Yuyi shook her head upon hearing this.

"When you have one hundred percent confidence, then proceed to open these two boxes."

Yi Shao's face showed difficulty upon hearing this. He went back and discussed with the other two experts, then returned to report.

"Reverend, the equipment here in Danxia City is insufficient. If we transport the boxes to the laboratory in Wangwu Grotto-Heaven, we can ensure one hundred percent confidence."

"Very well, then arrange the fastest flight. The three of you will escort these two boxes back, and notify me of the initial results once opened."

Yi Shao nodded excitedly upon hearing this.

Chen Mobai watched them take away the two black jade boxes. With the full assistance of the Immortal Sect's mechanisms, news of the successful opening of the boxes arrived seven days later.

Full-range high-definition videos and photos of the Other Shore Flower and Nine-Dragon Sophora Horn were sent to the expert panel present.

"Hmm, these two items somehow feel related to this Rejuvenating Spiritual Water..."

As a Fourth-rank alchemist, Qiu Chuanhua, with his professional expertise, grasped the key point.

Soon, he realized that these might be the two main ingredients of the Rejuvenating Spiritual Water: the Other Shore Flower and the Nine-Dragon Sophora Horn.

Upon hearing this, Reverend Yuyi's eyes brightened. She called Yi Shao, instructing him to preserve the two medicinal ingredients obtained from the black jade boxes and send them over.

However, three days later, one more expert arrived at Danxia Mountain.

Yi Shao and his two companions respectfully followed a somewhat bald middle-aged man who walked up.

Upon seeing him, Chen Mobai's expression changed in surprise.

All the experts present immediately put down what they were doing and respectfully bowed to him.

"Greetings, Reverend Yuanxu!"

Reverend Yuyi's delicate brows slightly furrowed; she looked at the suddenly appearing Reverend Yuanxu with some confusion.

"With the two main ingredients obtained, the Rejuvenating Spiritual Water can basically be attempted for refining. Coincidentally, a project I was working on has concluded, and I have some free time, so I came to resolve this matter."

Reverend Yuanxu calmly said to Reverend Yuyi.

Chen Mobai never expected that this person could be drawn out!

But soon, a wave of joy surged within him.

Because in the Immortal Sect, there was a saying:

There was nothing Reverend Yuanxu could not do, only things he did not want to do.
