~8 min read 1,481 words

【Important Spiritual Material】

【You have been nominated for this year's 'Immortal Sect Material and Exploration Award'】

【251 Blue Fluorescent Butterfly: Insect Class, Class-Pulse Superorder, Lepidoptera Order, Papilionoidea Superfamily, Blue Fluorescent Butterfly Family, Blue Fluorescent Butterfly Genus, Origin Number 251 Unknown Private Plane, Wingspan 13-17 cm, wings have gorgeous blue metallic luster, also green, purple, etc., emits blue fluorescence at night...】

【Function: Picked, butterfly wings within three days can extract substances that promote the formation of 'Dao Body Embryo', accelerating the formation of 'Dao Body Embryo', temporarily named 'Blue Gold 2413', no side effects found yet.

The origin is suspected to have a high-tier metal-attribute great demon fallen there, naturally forming an unknown species after thousands or tens of thousands of years, storage unknown.

'Blue Gold 2413' has a very small probability of being synthesized artificially. If this is true, this will be the greatest discovery in a thousand years, and it will surely greatly promote the number of Immortal Sect cultivators, causing a huge impact...】

"I... am going to get rich."

Jiang Ding's lips trembled slightly, and he quickly logged into the Immortal Sect Library to check relevant literature.

"Research on Blazing Fire Bird Heavenly Phoenix Bloodline Dao Body Potion"

"Conjecture on Green Water Whale Bloodline Dao Body Potion"

After reading articles for an hour, Jiang Ding's agitated heart finally returned to calm, and he had some understanding of the so-called "promoting the formation of Dao Body Embryo."

This wasn't a new discovery.

As early as over four thousand years ago, scientists discovered that one of the nine major Immortal Sects in the outer realms, the 'Ten Thousand Beasts Immortal Sect', had similar means, being able to bathe one's body with the essence blood of Heavenly-grade bloodline demon beasts, slightly improving spiritual root aptitude.

This technology had the characteristics of outer realm cultivators, with extremely low cost-effectiveness, and could at most be applied to a few people, making it difficult to popularize.

You must know that Heavenly-grade bloodline demon beasts, even if the bloodline is thin, have hope for the Nascent Soul stage. If the bloodline is thick, even the Soul Transformation stage can peek at it.

Adult bodies are powerful, and taking their essence blood is a nine-death-one-life situation even for high-tier cultivators.

And the number of Heavenly-grade bloodline demon beasts is extremely scarce. Meeting one requires great opportunity, and even if you want to take a nine-death-one-life risk, you don't have the chance.

Juvenile bodies are better tamed as exotic beasts. Once successful, they can become the foundation for a family for at least a thousand years. Isn't that much better than improving spiritual root aptitude by a small margin?

It can only be a luxury for top-tier cultivators.

The outer realm cultivation world has always been like this. A very small number of high-tier cultivators hold everything in the cultivation world, including the development of cultivation technology, without any motivation to popularize it to the middle and lower tiers.

After the Immortal Sect obtained this technology, they launched research on it. After three thousand years, the efforts of dozens of generations of cultivators and hundreds of generations of mortals, a major breakthrough was made a thousand years ago.

It could be replaced by essence blood containing Earth-grade demon beast bloodlines, and other auxiliary materials were also greatly reduced. The cost was lowered—becoming a luxury for a few Golden Core and above stage cultivators.

Earth-grade demon beasts have hope for the Golden Core stage, and those with thick bloodlines can also peek at the Nascent Soul stage.

The reason for nominating the Blue Fluorescent Butterfly is that this creature appears in large numbers, and it seems there is a possibility of mass reproduction. As for whether 'Blue Gold 2413' still exists in its body after mass reproduction or picking, that remains unknown.

"Endless treasures of another world..."

Jiang Ding muttered to himself: "If someone knew that the treasure was owned by a mortal, even if the Immortal Sect laws were strict, I'm afraid there would be a large number of cultivators who couldn't help but take the risk, right?"

Unable to sleep, he dressed neatly and returned to the backyard.

At noon, when the sun was hottest, the cicadas were deafening.

The first moment he appeared, Jiang Ding immediately placed his perspective on the drone screen of his contact lenses, quickly browsing the surveillance footage after he left.

Referring to previous experience, the broken sword would place him in a corner unseen by others, not exposing him to the public.

Scene after scene flashed by. People came and went on the street, others were on holiday, Han Lin was temporarily homeless and lived in the front courtyard, cooking and practicing boxing, and he even discovered a man dodging a figure five hundred meters away, suspected to be a member of the Wild Wolf Gang...

No large force, no experts lurking.

For the time being, if there were no cultivators who knew optical invisibility spells, he should be safe.

Holding his sword hilt, sunlight shining on his body, Jiang Ding closed his eyes to perceive the internal energy flowing in his body and walked out of his backyard.

"Hey! Ha!"

At the entrance of the half-open shop, with "Closed for two days" written on the door, a sturdy, dark-red-faced, ordinary-looking teenager was practicing boxing, sweating like rain, using all his strength for every punch, his sleeves making a "whoosh" sound.

Jiang Ding watched for a while.

Practicing... very average.

A simple set of five boxing routines, the moves he used were all deformed. This not only failed to exercise but would also damage his limbs.

Fortunately, the boxing technique was really simple. As long as he didn't practice with deadly force year after year, he wouldn't be crippled or anything.

Forget it, he couldn't have a work-related injury.

Swish!

The scabbard rolled up a clear wind sound.

Han Lin felt a chill in his heart, his fist instinctively smashing toward the scabbard, but saw it move like a spirit snake, easily dodging and pointing at his heart.

He was terrified, quickly taking a step back, and the scabbard continued to chase.

Even the air was broken, making a sharp sound. One could imagine that if it touched his body, it would definitely be a bowl-sized hole.

Forward, backward.

Just like that, the scabbard was like a puppeteer's conductor baton, producing invisible threads that forced Han Lin to move. Unknowingly, his boxing technique became more and more smooth, and his joints and muscles seemed to connect into a whole, making a "gurgling" sound.

"Ha!"

Han Lin roared, his fist, more than twice as fast, swung out and finally smashed onto the scabbard, knocking it back a step.

He gasped for air, cold sweat dripping, finally escaping from the environment of being stared at by a fierce beast at all times.

Only then did he discover that a young man in a green shirt had appeared in front of him at some point, his long hair reaching his waist, his demeanor like jade, holding a long sword.

"Proprietor!"

Han Lin bowed, full of gratitude.

In just a few rounds, his "Rolling Stone Boxing" had already entered the door, no longer twisting around like a layman.

"Hmm."

Jiang Ding nodded.

"Practice like this in the future. If you become proficient, then consider making fine-tuning suitable for yourself."

"Also, do me a favor."

Jiang Ding took out a piece of broken silver: "Send this to the gray-clothed, short man at the Li family tea stall and say I'm treating him to tea."

They were all bitter workers; he didn't want to vent his anger on anyone.

But if he insisted on continuing to monitor, then he couldn't be blamed.

"Yes, Proprietor."

Han Lin didn't ask anything and left with the silver.

Trotting along, he came to the vicinity of the Li family tea stall and indeed saw a gray-clothed man with a sharp face, about thirty years old, just drinking normally, with only a dish of fennel beans on the table, nothing unusual.

"Uncle, our Proprietor says he's treating you to tea." Han Lin handed over the silver.

The gray-clothed man looked suspiciously at the teenager in front of him. His face was ordinary, his skin dark, just a little kid seen everywhere.

Suddenly, he shivered.

"Who is your Proprietor?"

Han Lin said proudly: "I'm a shop assistant at the grocery store."

Working only four hours a day, with two days off every seven days, and a generous salary—such jobs weren't everywhere. Matchmakers had already come to the shop to inquire about the situation of the assistants one after another.

"Grocery store?"

The gray-clothed man's cold sweat poured down. This was the ruthless figure who had crippled the arm of 'Wild Wolf Blade' Long Shi.

Not daring to ask again, he took the piece of broken silver and left quickly. ===== CHAPTER 31 =====
