Chapter 578: Spirit Heart Elixir! Dong Muchun's Return!
Chapter 578: Spirit Heart Elixir! Dong Muchun's Return!
In his entire life, Su Ping had never felt so wealthy.
Lying in a rocking chair under the sun, he glanced at the Heart of All Souls Tome and the nearly twenty thousand universal experience points within it.
What does it mean to be rich and powerful?
What does it feel like to have money in your pocket and peace of mind?
He was beginning to understand these feelings.
However, after becoming wealthy, he felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.
Indeed, there wasn't anything urgent that he needed to exchange for at the moment.
There was no rush to obtain the final section of the Nanming Lihuo's cultivation method.
As for the cultivation of the Eye of Annihilation, he didn't feel the need to exchange for it immediately either.
The appearance of the Sea King's Arm was too coincidental and sudden.
He wasn't prepared for anything else.
Moreover, with the Breeding Competition about to take place and the New Year just a month away, he felt less urgency.
Of course, others were in a hurry, and Su Ping was aware of this. Zhu Hong, Meng Yao, and even the Holy Dragon Legend and Elder Feng were all eager.
If Su Ping were to ask, they would likely agree without hesitation, allowing Su Ping to thoroughly research the Sea King's Arm and the Possessing Beasts.
Unfortunately, despite their eagerness, Su Ping still wanted them to be patient.
The Sea King's Arm, in its current form, was still in its 'infant stage', and all it could do was absorb energy.
Rushing to cultivate skills on the Sea King's Arm might limit its potential.
Furthermore, cultivating skills that could be applied to Beastmasters and enhance their effectiveness required careful consideration.
So, during this time, Su Ping cleared his mind and rested from the fatigue brought on by the Overclocked Spirit over the past two days, completely setting aside his research on Possessing Beasts.
Instead, he began to study something that others might consider a waste of time.
Indeed, he was referring to the gene extraction research on the Jade Emerald Bodhi.
A precious resource of Holy Rank.
Although it was only a quarter of the whole, Su Ping had thoroughly messed with it.
In the end, even Elder Feng couldn't bear to watch anymore.
Yes, over these few days, Elder Feng, the president of the Beastmaster Association, finally couldn't resist and decided to stay at the Ten Thousand Souls Heart for a while.
Even the Holy Dragon Legend, before leaving, jokingly scolded Su Ping for his shabby place, saying that he would bring all the Beastmasters in the Dragon Country over.
However, this was normal. Any Beastmaster would be interested in researching a new type of beast.
Continuing with the Jade Emerald Bodhi.
Su Ping's proficiency in potion-making was indeed pitiful, but it was not as if he had reached the level of a master either.
Elder Feng, on the other hand, was undoubtedly a true master in comprehensive cultivation.
Eventually, unable to bear it any longer, he intervened in Su Ping's research on the Jade Bodhi.
Over these few days, they worked tirelessly, and soon, a potion named 'Spirit Heart Elixir' was brilliantly crafted in less than a week!
The Jade Emerald Bodhi contained a component called Spirit Nectar.
This component was the key to eternal youth, without a doubt.
The Spirit Heart Elixir was made by extracting the Spirit Nectar from other low-level resources, then purifying and compressing it, and adding other ingredients.
Its value was, of course, unquestionable.
However, the actual cost was not high, with each one costing no more than fifty thousand yuan.
Su Ping estimated that the selling price of this item would be about ten times that amount.
Naturally, the effect of eternal youth, even when multiplied by ten, did not seem like an extravagant price.
However, in reality, the Spirit Heart Elixir refined from the Heart of All Souls could not achieve true eternal youth.
Even if the Spirit Nectar was extracted and compressed to the same level as the Jade Emerald Bodhi, it still couldn't compare to the one inside the bodhi.
In this world, the natural energy contained within levels was an insurmountable mountain, impossible to replicate with mechanical instruments or synthetic creations.
Therefore, after preliminary calculations, this Spirit Heart Elixir could probably maintain one's youth for 5 to 8 years without significant aging.
But that was enough!
One can imagine how delighted Dong Muchun would be when Su Ping handed over this item, given her business acumen and insight.
Dong Muchun was back, and at that very moment, she was right by his side.
The two of them lay in the sunroom on the rooftop of the Cloud Heart Building, basking in the sunlight.
"How was your trip to the Thousand Islands Country this time?"
Dong Muchun lazily asked, "Which aspect are you referring to?"
It was evident that she had been extremely busy during this period.
"What do you think? How's the situation with the Golden Guild?"
As they spoke, Dong Muchun took out an object and pressed it between the two of them. After seeing no abnormalities, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Ping took a glance, "Wow, you're really being cautious."
"I have to be cautious, Su Ping. You don't know how mysterious the Golden Guild is. It's precisely because of this that their ambitions are so grand! I dare not be careless, fearing that all my previous efforts will be in vain. My life is insignificant compared to the potential consequences if the previous results are wasted."
Dong Muchun sighed deeply, and it was clear that after deciding to infiltrate the Golden Guild, she had changed a lot.
However, Su Ping shook his head, "You're wrong. In my opinion, the Golden Guild's affairs are minor. Your life and death are what truly matter! So, don't forget that preserving your life is the most important thing."
Dong Muchun's eyes flickered with a subtle ripple, and she hummed lightly, "You still have a conscience. This time, I brought you a gift from the Thousand Islands Country.
Or rather, the Golden Guild sent you a gift."
Dong Muchun placed a USB drive on the tea table between the two of them.
"This is..."
In fact, Su Ping recognized it at a glance. This item was probably the latest mechanical pet technology data from the so-called Eagle Nation that was auctioned on Lanyu Island.
As expected, "This is the latest mechanical pet research data from the Eagle Nation, a gift from the Golden Guild. Shen Qiu purchased it through the Golden Guild after hearing about the damage to your Proud Dragon.
He heard about the damage to your Proud Dragon and wanted to show his sincerity by offering this gift.
Shen Qiu even said he wanted to meet you on behalf of the Golden Guild, but I temporarily refused, as you have the Breeder Competition and other matters to attend to before the New Year."
Dong Muchun continued, "Based on my guess, he will probably ask again after the New Year, wanting to meet you."
Su Ping nodded and then said, "Does everyone know about the damage to the Proud Dragon?"
"Perhaps, but we didn't try to hide the information. The Golden Guild has extensive information sources, so it's reasonable for them to know."
Su Ping narrowed his eyes, not paying attention to the so-called mechanical data on the valuable USB drive.
After some thought, he said, "If Shen Qiu wants to meet me again, tell him I don't want to meet him. If the Golden Guild wants to find me, let their mysterious leader come and see me!"
Based on the previous speculations of Holy Saint and Dong Muchun, the Golden Guild might have a Holy Rank power behind them.
And even more likely, this person is a Dragon Country existence! However, no one knows who it is exactly.
They are hiding very deeply.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Here, take this."
Finally, Su Ping took out a bottle of green Spirit Heart:
"Spirit Heart, I made this based on the Jade Emerald Bodhi. It can significantly slow down the aging process, ensuring no side effects for 5-8 years. The production cost is about 50,000 yuan if produced in large quantities. Take a look and see how you want to operate and sell it."
As expected, Dong Muchun's eyes lit up at the sight of the Spirit Heart, and she excitedly looked at Su Ping, "Su Ping, can I drink this first?"
"Hmm? Didn't you use your Jade Emerald Bodhi? If you consume that, you can stay eternally youthful and won't need to drink this again."
Su Ping was surprised.
Dong Muchun nodded, "I wanted to wait until I reached the Archduke Peak before using the Jade Emerald Bodhi to break through to the Imperial Rank, so I've been reluctant to use it..."
Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Su Ping's sneering expression and became annoyed, "Do you think everyone is as abnormal as you? I'm truly amazed. I don't know how you managed to improve your cultivation so much. It's ridiculous."
Su Ping slightly furrowed his brows, "Don't worry too much about Pingyun. During this time, besides showing more concern for the Golden Guild, leave the rest to the people below. Meditate and improve your cultivation. Let me know if you need any resources.
In this world, money can't change anything. The only things you can truly rely on are your pets and your strength."
As Dong Muchun spoke, she paused in deep thought, then suddenly asked, "Su Ping, can money be converted into strength? But I heard that the Golden Heart of the Eagle Nation..."
Su Ping was taken aback, then smiled after a moment of thought. "Sure, once I have the strength to go to the headquarters of the Golden Heart and thoroughly understand its principles, I'll create one here as well. It'll help improve your talent."
"Pfft!"
Dong Muchun rolled her eyes at him. "Speaking of which, the Golden Guild has been testing me, asking if I want to go to the Cherry Country to expand Pingyun's business."
Su Ping narrowed his eyes at this.
The Cherry Country, the last time at the Wind Cave Island, he encountered people from the Red Devil Clan of the Cherry Country and learned that the Golden Heart's envoy was planning to establish a genuine branch there.
If the Golden Guild goes to the Cherry Country, it might be more dangerous than going to the Thousand Islands Country.
"Did they mention a specific time?"
"They said it'll be around next summer. They're waiting for the global Breeder Lifetime Achievement Award, which happens once every ten years, to be over before heading there."
Dong Muchun spoke up.
"We'll deal with it when the time comes. It's not too late to decide then, as long as you don't agree to it now."
Su Ping acknowledged, about to speak again when suddenly, a message alert rang. Seeing the caller ID, Su Ping raised an eyebrow and glanced at Dong Muchun.
She then said, "Is it Miss Qin calling?"
"Yeah, she's probably almost at Linzhou."
While Su Ping was in Beiyuan Province, Qin Xiaoxue had been reassigned by Sang Sheng to Yunnan-Tibet for training and self-improvement.
"Alright, perfect timing. Tomorrow is New Year's Day, and the day after that, Pingyun will have a grand event. The company is swamped, so I'll be on my way."
"Hmm? What grand event?"
Dong Muchun rolled her eyes. "You're so busy managing everything, but can't you spare some attention for Pingyun? The Mechanical Association has already developed low-cost mechanical cores, which has significantly reduced the value of the Dream Heart's development."
"They've been selling it piecemeal, but this time, they've been accumulating production capacity. On January 2nd, the Dream Heart will have its first large-scale public release, and over a million pre-orders have already been placed."
"Tsk, do you know how much the deposit for these pre-orders is?"
Su Ping shook his head.
Dong Muchun held out her palm. "Over a hundred billion."
Su Ping sucked in a cold breath.
"That exaggerated?"
Dong Muchun rolled her eyes again and continued, "Su Ping, aren't you paying enough attention to Feifei? Don't you know how much the Dream Heart has changed recently?"
Su Ping scratched his head and lowered his head in embarrassment.
It wasn't just Feifei; he had been neglecting all his contracted beasts. Unlike other beastmasters, he treated all beasts equally, not just his own.
Seeing his expression, Dong Muchun didn't bother to say more. "Forget it, just remember to give these mechanical materials to Feifei. After all, Kuang Sheng is there too. Don't waste the mechanical breeding; you're not interested in it anyway."
"I'll see you out."
"No need. Your time is precious, and you've already spent so much of it talking to me. I'm grateful."
The woman left with a strange expression, and indeed, she didn't let Su Ping see her off. Instead, she summoned Cloud Cherry and departed from above.
Watching her leave, Su Ping exhaled.
Speaking of Miss Qin, she had never really seen the Two-In-One Tai Chi Incarnation Ultimate Skill of the little crow.
After the little crow's evolution, it accompanied Su Ping to Beiyuan Province and spent most of its time at the Phoenix Heart.
