Capítulo 896: Chapter 392: No Regrets, Facing the Divine Challenge
A pill furnace stands in a corner of the main house.
This courtyard was allocated by Zheng Fa for the Spirit Root Modification Project Team, which naturally consists of more than just his two disciples, but these two are the core mbers and always arrive earliest.
Gu Chang sighed again: “We have access to any spiritual dicine. Whatever spirit beasts we need, regardless of cost, the Affairs Hall will procure them, and if needed, the Divinity Transformation Elders will make ti to assist us. Not to ntion, our Master occasionally provides guidance.”
“I am already a ruined body, favored by my Master. If the experint fails, it is just my fate, but I might have let down my Master’s trust…”
He paused, then said in a deep voice, “Actually, I went ho to rest last night, but in my dreams… the experint succeeded. So, I hastily got dressed and rushed over, not realizing it was just a beautiful dream.”
Mu Qingyan listened, feeling dejected: “Didn’t Master say that the experint is getting more successful? Senior Brother, your theory is correct, but it’s my slow developnt of the corresponding spiritual dicine that has delayed the project’s progress…”
The two spoke while organizing the results of yesterday’s experint. Though disheartened, neither ntioned giving up.
Zheng Fa did not appear; instead, he silently left.
The biggest issue in suppressing cultivation families once again falls on the spirit roots.
Spirit roots are a type of body attribute, with a high proportion determined by inheritance. In other words, cultivators with high-quality spirit roots are more likely to produce offspring with better talents.
This is also why, to varying degrees, sects in the Xuanwei Realm have beco family-oriented: it is the easiest way to obtain high-quality cultivation seeds.
Zheng Fa understood very well that spirit root modification is a powerful solution for family-related issues.
If Gu Chang’s theory hadn’t nearly been confird correct, and if the technological realization were not just a matter of ti, Zheng Fa wouldn’t have made this decision.
Not to ntion, spirit root modification could increase the proportion of talented individuals available to the Jiushan Sect tenfold, even a hundredfold.
The Hundred Immortals Alliance controls less territory and has a smaller population, so relying on traditional ans to select talents can never match the Four Sects.
As Gu Chang said, Zheng Fa has high expectations for this and has invested heavily.
Yet, research truly becos tougher at each step, and now it’s almost stuck at the final stage, unable to move forward.
He looked at his two busy disciples in the courtyard, knowing that his presence might only add to their anxiety, so he chose to leave quietly.
…
What Zheng Fa didn’t expect was that he was sowhat anxious, but soone else was even more desperate for this matter.
In the modern nursing ho, Old Man Bai found Zheng Fa and asked, “How’s your spirit root modification research going?”
The core mbers of the nursing ho all knew that Zheng Fa had another influence and even vaguely heard about the research being conducted there.
“We’re encountering difficulties and probably won’t have any results in the short term.” Zheng Fa shook his head, then looked at Old Man Bai and asked, “You’re anxious about it?”
Old Man Bai had relatively poor spirit roots and was cultivating more and more slowly.
His current cultivation level was already sowhat weaker than Tang Mudao.
“Anxious… I am a bit anxious.” Old Man Bai touched his small curly hair, looking worried, and continued, “It’s mainly because of Mrs. Tian.”
“Mrs. Tian?”
Zheng Fa was taken aback. What does this have to do with Mrs. Tian?
“She looks down on because my spirit root is low!”
“…”
Zheng Fa recalled how the two elderly interacted and couldn’t see where Mrs. Tian looked down on this old man.
“Just take the past half-year; she’s been running to the newly built spirit plant experintal field every day!” Old Man Bai, seemingly seeing Zheng Fa’s disbelief, gestured emphatically, “Sotis I don’t see her all day long!”
“Wait a second…” Zheng Fa stopped Old Man Bai’s complaints, frowning, “I rember, wasn’t Mrs. Tian busy with the spirit root modification experints too?”
For the modern world, spirit root modification is more useful.
Therefore, in fact, both realms are researching it together, even relying on Zheng Fa to facilitate exchanges.
The problem here is similar to that in Jiushan Realm: they can’t find suitable spiritual dicine.
Therefore, a new experintal field was established in Rainbow Mountain, right behind it.
It is planted with many transplanted plants—mainly so rare seeds, mostly sourced from various seed banks.
There are also so plants found to be potentially related species based on the genetic makeup of the spiritual dicines in the Jiushan Realm.
Old Man Bai nodded vigorously, “Exactly!”
“Then isn’t Mrs. Tian doing it for you?”
Mrs. Tian has decent spirit roots, and even dual spirit roots. If she were eager for her own cultivation, why would she devote herself to spiritual dicine every day?
Isn’t it obvious for whom she’s doing this?
“For … but it’s because she looks down on for my low spirit roots!”
Seeing Old Man Bai speaking with righteous indignation, Zheng Fa placed a hand on his forehead.
He realized that the old man had co to show off his romance.
Old Man Bai, noticing that his thoughts had been seen through, lifted his head, nearly floating on air, and still pretended to say, “My mind is now calm and indifferent–I’ve long ceased to care about cultivation, and qualifications like spirit roots are like clouds to … But seeing Tian so focused on it, it makes feel distressed, right?”
Zheng Fa’s divine sense passed through Rainbow Mountain and found Mrs. Tian.
Sure enough, Mrs. Tian was standing in the field, her eyebrows seemingly filled with disappointnt.
It was clear to see that the progress in cultivating spiritual dicine was minimal.
Looking at Old Man Bai’s smug face, Zheng Fa was silent for a mont, then suddenly spoke, “I’ve achieved Divinity Transformation.”
“…”
“With dual spirit roots and a Taoist body, it’s just fast.”
Old Man Bai lowered his head.
“Of course, with Mr. Bai’s serene and detached deanor, I’m sure you don’t care.”
“…”
Having said that, Zheng Fa gently patted Old Man Bai on the shoulder. With the manifestation of Qingyun above his head, he intended to perform the Spirit Mountain Technique but had an epiphany and looked up toward the sky.
