Chapter 134: Purple Lightning Soul Devouring Thorn! Acupoint Activation Plan!
The meeting concluded.
Yuan Guofeng’s hearty laughter could also be heard.
“Hahaha~ These guys, give them an inch and they’ll take a mile. A glare is all they need to behave!”
“Uncle Yuan, they haven’t left yet.”
“Hmph! What are you afraid of!? So what if they heard?”
Yuan Guofeng proudly discussed with the Big Boss beside him.
Bai Yu stood at the entrance of the meeting room, silently watching Professor Yuan in the distance, cursing, “Damn it! My Nine Heavens Thunder Movement True Technique!”
Wang Wen chuckled beside him, “See! This guy isn’t a good person.”
“??? Is it really okay to badmouth him like this?”
“What are you afraid of!? Would he dare touch me?”
“He’s in the Spirit Sea Realm.”
But remembering Professor Wang Wen’s shameless demeanor, he fell silent.
“Let’s go! Come to my laboratory and take a look at your broken tree.”
“Hey! It’s only been a few days, and my tree has become Madam Niu already?”
“Do you know how much money it costs to raise this thing? I’m investing at least 2 million daily. It will definitely be more in the future! Maybe five million, ten million a day. Who can afford such a money-devouring beast?”
Bai Yu was stunned.
“Spending so much money!?”
“Nonsense! Look at how thirsty that tree is, how much blood it drinks daily. These materials aren’t free! And to cultivate it into a proper Dragon Blood Tree, the main component has to be Pseudo-Dragon Blood. Otherwise, the fruit it produces would only be called Lizard Blood Fruit.”
Hearing the name, Bai Yu’s mouth twitched.
That name was indeed quite vivid!
Glancing at Professor Yuan, who was too smug and had long forgotten his True Technique, Bai Yu could only sigh and say, “Alright, let’s go take a look. I also have something to discuss.”
Wang Wen’s eyes lit up.
“What is it? Could it be the industrialization of Open Acupoint Pills?”
“It’s more than that!”
Wang Wen’s laboratory building was only about a kilometer away from the Spiritual Energy Research Institute, and they arrived in no time.
Returning to this rather familiar place, Bai Yu felt like he was home and stretched.
“Brat, tell me, what good stuff do you have?”
“Didn’t you say you’d take me to see the Dragon Blood Tree? Why the rush!”
“Come on, come on, your broken tree, would I mistreat it?”
Saying that, Wang Wen led Bai Yu to the cultivation room.
What met Bai Yu’s eyes made him a little dazed.
Holy cow!
Is this still my Dragon Blood Tree?
Upon closer inspection, the Dragon Blood Tree was now over 6 meters tall, with lush branches and leaves. Its exterior was a vibrant red, and it had already grown leaves with red meridians.
“It’s only been a few days?”
Seeing Bai Yu’s shocked expression, Wang Wen also felt a bit proud, “How is it? Not bad for cultivation, right!”
“It’s indeed good! I just wonder how long it will take to bear fruit.”
“Spiritual Plants aren’t as mystical as cultivation novels claim, talking about hundreds of years. Can we even live that long?”
“Actually, it’s not much different from ordinary fruit trees. In fact, spiritual plants have stronger absorption capabilities. As long as there are enough resources, they can bear fruit within 10 days! Your Dragon Blood Tree might bear fruit in two to three months.”
Hearing this, Bai Yu naturally became even more expectant.
Otherwise, if it took three to five years, he might not be able to use it.
“Oh, right! Regarding your Ten Spirit Nourishing Soup, I’ve already finished writing the thesis, and only experimental data is missing.”
“Moreover, the Tianhai City Official has provided great convenience. Although the experimental data isn’t out yet, they are already planning to roll it out in Tianhai City.”
“Once the thesis is published, the income will reach a very substantial level!”
Bai Yu rubbed his hands and asked, “How much can it earn?”
“I don’t know. But what’s clear is that the cash alone won’t exceed one billion.”
“??? Only this much?”
“Of course! More importantly, there will be preferential treatment in scientific research resources, which can be used to cultivate your Dragon Blood Tree.”
Bai Yu rolled his eyes.
Damn it!
No matter how much my Dragon Blood Tree eats, can it really eat 10 billion?
After thinking for a moment, Bai Yu’s eyes darted, and he said, “By the way, I have two more treasures on hand.”
Wang Wen’s hand stroking his beard paused, then continued smoothly, “What great treasures?”
His tone and expression were very calm.
“One is the industrialization of Open Acupoint Pill refinement, you still remember that, right?”
“Of course!”
However, hearing Bai Yu call him “you old man,” he always felt like something bad was about to happen.
“The remaining one might be a bit amazing.”
After all, this was a universal cultivation method developed eight years later, applicable to Martial Arts! Usable by all people.
Wang Wen’s heart stirred with excitement, and he immediately asked, “What is it?”
“Qi Gathering Realm Cultivation Technique!”
Hearing this, Wang Wen was stunned for a moment, then said angrily, “Are you kidding me, kid? What’s the use of a broken cultivation technique!”
“Heh~! You say that, but you don’t know what you’re talking about. Do you know that this cultivation technique is one I use myself, a universal Qi Gathering technique for everyone. If I were to write a thesis about it, the title would at least be Myriad Laws Origin: The Origin and Evolution of Cultivation Systems.”
If it were anyone else, Wang Wen wouldn’t have paid much attention, but coming from Bai Yu…
It must be amazing?
But to say it’s more amazing than the industrialization of Open Acupoint Pills? How is that possible!
How long have you been cultivating? You can’t possibly be an expert in cultivation techniques, can you?
After thinking for a moment, he said, “How about I find a friend?”
“??? You don’t want such a great contribution?”
“I’m afraid if I publish this thesis, I’ll get hit by a car the next day!”
Bai Yu wanted to laugh but couldn’t.
He could only say silently, “Do you have a grudge against that Professor?”
“A bit.”
“??? Did he steal your girlfriend?”
“!!!” Hmph!
“I think how about this, let’s discuss the industrialization of alchemy first. Then, I’ll hand over this cultivation technique mantra to you, and you can negotiate it yourself?”
“That’s even better! Hahaha~”
He had already figured out how to deal with this guy.
“Oh! Speaking of which, that old guy is the one who gave you the Thundercloud Fruit and the cultivation plan.”
“This Professor cultivates spiritual plants, creates cultivation plans, and now researches cultivation techniques. He sounds like he’s…”
“Like me what?”
“A bit inferior to you.”
“That’s a reasonable thing to say!”
“Um, where’s my Thundercloud Fruit?”
“It hasn’t arrived yet! Let’s discuss the industrialization of alchemy first. See if my experimental environment can handle it!”
And so, they were busy for a full three hours.
During the process, the main points to note were temperature control, spiritual material processing, and the timing of addition.
Professor Wang Wen’s laboratory equipment was incredibly powerful. The machine added materials at the perfect time, and temperature control was a breeze.
In the end, one hundred pills were produced.
These were not cultivation pills; industrialization had a 100% success rate! The quality rate would be seen later.
Professor Wang Wen didn’t say a word and directly popped one in to try.
“??? Aren’t you afraid of something going wrong?”
“Look! This is where knowledge comes in. I know the materials used and their pharmacological properties. At most, I’ll get diarrhea.”
Bai Yu glanced at the pill but still didn’t dare to eat it.
What if he had to go to the bathroom while on patrol a few hours later?
That would be too embarrassing!
After Wang Wen swallowed it, he began circulating his Qi.
This would accelerate the digestion of the medicinal effects.
After about twenty minutes, he frowned, then showed a look of joy.
“I just tried to impact an acupoint, and it actually worked! Not bad! Not bad! The pill’s effect is good, the formula is correct.”
“Really? The effect is that good?”
“This acupoint was already meant to be opened, I was just trying it out. However, your medicinal formula has definitely been improved. Its effect is probably thirty to forty percent better than those on the market! But compared to Open Acupoint Pills made with top-tier materials, it’s still quite a bit lacking. However, the biggest advantage is the cost!”
As it involved his own professional field and he realized the future prospects of this Open Acupoint Pill, Professor Wang Wen became more and more excited as he talked.
“I estimate the cost of one of your Open Acupoint Pills can be kept within 9,000 Federal Currency. For similar pills, the cost starts at 10,000, and the effect isn’t as good as yours!”
“It’s a huge profit!”
“Hahaha~ If this were written into a thesis and published, what would happen!?”
Bai Yu asked faintly, “So, what did I earn?”
“From now on, if you need any resources for your cultivation, you can come to me! I will do my best to help you obtain them.”
Hearing this, Bai Yu felt very gratified.
The old man was quite sensible!
“By the way, you said your cultivation method is even more effective than this?”
“Yes. Myriad Laws Origin isn’t just a saying. I’ve been using this cultivation technique all along. The first day I awakened, I didn’t understand anything. I just searched for acupoint and meridian diagrams online and could start circulating it immediately.”
Wang Wen had no doubts at this moment.
“Come, come, write it down, I’ll try it.”
“No! I’ve been busy all day today, and I haven’t gotten the Nine Heavens Thunder Movement True Technique, nor the Thundercloud Fruit? Did you hide the Thundercloud Fruit, you old geezer, and haven’t given it to me yet?”
“Oh, oh, right! Right! I’ll call Old Yuan right away. Damn it! I got the Black Blood Case news from you, and I’ve been waiting so long, I haven’t even sent the cultivation technique to you.”
“Old Yuan is a thankless wretch, remember that! Don’t look for him if you don’t have to in the future, just come to me. I’ll call him right now and tell him to send it over quickly.”
Saying that, he immediately picked up his phone and dialed.
“Hello, Old Wang, what’s up?”
From the sounds on the phone, the other party seemed to be drinking, likely a celebration or a party.
“You old scoundrel, why haven’t you sent the cultivation technique yet? Is this how you treat a contributor? Be careful, I’ll report you to the higher-ups!”
“Oh! Oh! I got carried away today. I’ll have someone send it over immediately. No! I’ll deliver it myself.”
“No, no, you just stay and enjoy your feast. Just have someone send it over. My laboratory is currently conducting important research, and unauthorized personnel are not allowed inside.”
He hung up after speaking.
Half an hour later, Yuan Guofeng personally delivered it, but Wang Wen had his disciple retrieve the cultivation technique from the main gate and then directly closed the door.
In the surveillance video.
Seeing that Old Wang really wouldn’t let him in, Yuan Guofeng immediately started cursing.
He glanced at the food he had brought.
“Throw this in the trash for the dogs!”
“Just throw away this old guy’s stuff, have someone deliver the kid’s.”
Inside the laboratory.
Bai Yu happily ate the seemingly expensive spiritual food, including rare spiritual beast meat.
While eating, he muttered, “He really knows how to enjoy himself!”
Wang Wen, who couldn’t eat, rolled his eyes.
The cultivation supplies in the pictures he had shown Bai Yu today were also delivered to the laboratory.
Bai Yu looked at the items in three special glass containers.
The first was a common Thundercloud Fruit, flickering with lightning, about fifty of them.
In the second glass cabinet, there were three Thundercloud Fruits with golden lightning, to be precise, Thundercloud Gold Fruits!
The third glass cabinet contained three 20-centimeter-long Thunder Spikes.
They were made of purple metal, with special inscription marks on the surface.
They flickered with purple lightning!
“These three treasures are soul artifacts that can be stored in the Soul Sea! They release soul lightning that damages the soul. They are all crafted to the peak Spirit Yuan Realm level. That old guy gave it a rather fitting name, Purple Lightning Soul Devouring Thorn.”
“Oh, right, that old guy knows you, so this weapon is specially prepared for you! It’s absolutely compatible.”
Bai Yu was quite tempted by these items.
Thinking about the Thundercloud Gold Fruit intelligence that cost 5 Intelligence Value, he couldn’t help but ask, “How do I use these Thundercloud Fruits?”
“They’re all the same, just eat them directly. After eating, remember to quickly circulate your Qi to absorb the vast energy within.”
Hearing this, Bai Yu thought: Eating Thundercloud Fruits directly should be normal.
In the intelligence, only the Thundercloud Gold Fruit appeared, so its usage method must be different!
It seems like the money for this intelligence couldn’t be saved.
“What about the cultivation plan?”
“The cultivation plan is here. I’ve looked at it, and it’s quite detailed. That old guy was actually quite diligent!”
Saying that, Wang Wen handed over something resembling a hotel menu.
Bai Yu looked closely.
【50~120 Acupoint Cultivation Plan:
Impacting Earth-Rank Acupoint – Spirit Accumulation Acupoint: Auxiliary consumption recommended
Impacting Earth-Rank Acupoint – Heavenly Thunder Acupoint: Auxiliary consumption recommended
】
It could be seen that this cultivation plan was indeed written very meticulously.
More importantly, the acupoints were already classified by rank here.
It was also specified which spiritual foods should be consumed for each acupoint!
Bai Yu glanced at the cultivation plan for acupoints 50-120.
The acupoints listed here were precisely the ones he hadn’t opened yet.
It seemed that the difficulty of opening these acupoints was greater!
Seeing Bai Yu’s excited mood, Wang Wen also smiled gently, “I’ve arranged the resources for these few Earth-Rank acupoints for you. I will arrange the rest for you as well.”
“Tsk tsk, then I feel like my strength improvement speed will be heaven-defying recently! Oh right, when is Professor Feng returning to the Thunder Laboratory?”
“I spoke with him yesterday. He should be back within three to five days. I need to plant some spiritual plants there, to avoid wasting so much lightning spiritual energy.”
“Alright! Notify me when that happens. I’ll head back to the Investigation Bureau to cultivate first.”
As he left, he felt like he could jump three feet high.
He was also calculating in his mind: ‘Today I got this Thundercloud Gold Fruit, and the cultivation plan.’
‘Tomorrow I’ll go to the Treasure Vault, and in a few days, I’ll go to the Thunder Laboratory, have Old Feng set up a Spirit Array for me, and by mid-month, there will be guidance from a Heaven Yuan Realm Big Boss!’
‘This is a sure-fire path to success!’
‘What Black Blood Monsters, what Vampire Clans, they’re all trash! I’ll easily handle them!’
‘However, when I go to the Thunder Laboratory, I need to address the issue of the Sin Blood Research Institute. The crisis for the Human Race is not over yet, I can’t get carried away.’
‘To change the future, I can only take it step by step and rectify every single one of these nodes!’
