Chapter 1189: Chapter 654: Causing a Sensation_2 Chapter 1189: Chapter 654: Causing a Sensation_2 Chen Mobai could only apologize to Chu Chuanhua and then picked up the call from his teacher.

“The Asura Dharma Aspect has been reviewed by the principal, and it’s confirmed that it’s not from the Immortal Gate’s system. However, whether it’s practicable still needs to be verified by various experts,”
Che Yucheng described their situation, and Chen Mobai nodded; this was within his expectations.

“Because of the importance of the matter, everything you obtained from the blind box might be taken by the relevant departments of the Immortal Gate for analysis. But rest assured, since all the departments with authority will want to get involved, there will be a period of bureaucratic wrangling. It’ll be quite easy for Wang Shuye to place our own people in there to ensure that your contribution is not overlooked.”

Chen Mobai hadn’t really considered the things Che Yucheng mentioned, as he always kept a low profile within the Immortal Gate. Even the greatest of achievements couldn’t compel him to step out of Red Sandstone City.

Chen Mobai had already decided that after the “Nascent Soul Formation,” once he could transplant the Biyu Wutong into his own realm, he would emerge from his seclusion.

By that time, with the support of the Dance Tool Dao Academy behind him, plus being a Nascent Soul Superior, he would at least be given the position of Vice Hall Master of the Three Great Halls of Xianmen.

It’s even possible that upon emergence, he would reach the peak, becoming one of the Three Great Hall Masters.

That was how steady he was!

Thinking of this, Chen Mobai immediately declared to Che Yucheng with righteous words that he would willingly donate anything he opened from the blind box as long as it could be useful to the Immortal Gate and the Daoist Academy.

His only request was that once the Immortal Gate finished researching the Asura Dharma Aspect, they would provide him with a copy of how to practice it and the necessary resources for its cultivation.

Chen Mobai’s words touched Che Yucheng, who praised his noble character and felt proud of his disciple.

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

Eventually, the jurisdiction managing the portals realized the value of the “Asura Dharma Aspect,” and the director Xue Yuzhu personally called Chen Mobai.

“Councilor Chen, please ensure that there are no omissions on the inventory from the items obtained from the blind box. The Xianwu Hall is currently in a meeting and is about to send a joint expert group to Red Sandstone City to inspect the items on the inventory. Each item will be examined by three experts, and an omission would necessitate reconvening additional personnel for another meeting, which would be quite troublesome.”

Xue Yuzhu first conveyed the highest orders from the Immortal Gate, then mentioned something that greatly surprised Chen Mobai.

“The head of the expert group, the Xianwu Hall, is inviting a Nascent Soul Superior to join. Since it involves an alchemy recipe, it might be one of those three, but Daoist Yu Yi is very interested in the Asura Dharma Aspect and has volunteered…”

Generally, when a Nascent Soul Superior speaks up, even the Hall Masters of the Three Great Halls of Xianmen would show respect, let alone the soon-to-be-retiring Head of Immortal Affairs who would certainly not offend a peer.

Chen Mobai knew Daoist Yu Yi only as the principal of the Heavenly Book Academy and a Fifth Order Rune Master of the Immortal Gate.

Despite the deep influence, the possibility of his added ingredients in the blind box being exposed made Chen Mobai nervous upon hearing that a Nascent Soul Superior would lead the team.

After his chat with Xue Yuzhu, Chen Mobai shared the conversation with Che Yucheng, hoping to obtain more detailed information from the Dance Tool Dao Academy.

“Don’t worry, Daoist Yu Yi is a very nice person. She’s only interested in knowledge, and that’s exactly why she volunteered to go to the Heavenly Book Academy, to comprehend those Tian Shu.”

Chen Mobai felt slightly relieved after hearing Che Yucheng’s words.

Three days later, all the major departments of the Xianwu Hall had reached a consensus, forming a rather luxurious expert group that set out for Red Sandstone City.

Of course, before this expert group arrived, Ye Yune had already notified Chen Mobai on behalf of the Kaiyuan Hall, advising him to prepare for cooperation.

After all, as a Golden Core Master, unless there was an official hierarchy, only orders from the Kaiyuan Hall could have jurisdiction over Chen Mobai.

Daoist Yu Yi was a bespectacled female cultivator clad in simple elegant attire, with delicate manners, fair skin, and a gentle nod to Chen Mobai, affirming his contribution to the Immortal Gate. After the expert group confirmed the precise value of the items from the blind box, she promised that a generous reward would follow.

Chen Mobai had no expectations for the reward from the Immortal Gate, guessing it probably wouldn’t even match his Little Nan Mountain Shop’s annual income in the Eastern Wilderness.

So he calmly nodded and pointed to a long table on top of Danxia Mountain, displaying all the items he had spiked and then listed as from three Void Blind Boxes.

Daoist Yu Yi was slightly surprised by his calm response, but soon got down to business.

The expert group each had a copy of the list and, after Daoist Yu Yi verified the numbers were correct, they approached the long table in groups of three. They all donned gloves and began examining the items with great care.

Among them, one of the experts evaluating the Return to the Sun Spirit Water alchemy recipe was Chu Chuanhua.

Clearly, he had been placed there by the Dance Tool Dao Academy. Besides him, there were two other experts graduated from the academy greeting Chen Mobai openly.

In addition to people from the Dance Tool Dao Academy, Chen Mobai also exchanged warm greetings with experts from the Repairing Heaven Institute.

At this time, Yu Yi had already picked up the piece of Soul Nourishing Wood that was engraved with the Asura Dharma Aspect and Return to the Sun Spirit Water and began to examine it.

After she finished, it was Chu Chuanhua’s turn to look at the alchemy recipe, followed by a Fourth Order Spiritual Plant Master from the Jumang Academy named Zhuang Wei, who took over to identify the origin of the Soul Nourishing Wood.

Zhuang Wei quickly confirmed that it was not from Di Yuan Star.

Meanwhile, the three experts had used special instruments and cultivation techniques to peer through the restrictions and examine what was sealed inside the Black Jade Box.

Chen Mobai saw on the instrument screen the clear contours of the flowers from the other shore and the nine dragons’ sophora pods taking shape.

But he was the only one who knew about these two items, although they were mentioned in the Return to the Sun Spirit Water, they were only briefly described in terms of their medicinal properties and effects.

“Superior, the restrictions on the surface of these two boxes are indeed drastically different from the system of Immortal Gate, but quite crude. We can attempt to open them,” the expert in charge of the Black Jade Box, Yi Shao, said as he reported to Daoist Yu Yi, who glanced at the screen before asking a question.

“What are the chances?”

“Ninety percent!”

Yu Yi shook her head immediately after hearing this.

“When you are one hundred percent sure, go and open these two boxes.”

After hearing this, Yi Shao’s face showed some difficulty. He went back to discuss with the other two experts, and then they came back to report.

“Superior, the equipment in Red Sandstone City is insufficient. If we transport the boxes to the laboratory in Wangwu Cave Heaven, we can ensure a one hundred percent chance of success,” they said.

“Hmm, then arrange the fastest flight, the three of you escort these two boxes back, and inform me of the result of opening the boxes first,” Yu Yi instructed.

After hearing this, Yi Shao nodded excitedly.

Chen Mobai watched as they took the two Black Jade Boxes away. With the full support of the Immortal Gate’s mechanisms, news of a successful box opening came seven days later.

Full, high-definition videos and photos of the flowers from the other shore and the nine dragons’ sophora pods reached the hands of the team of experts present.

“Eh, these two items feel somehow connected to this Return to the Sun Spirit Water…”

Chu Chuanhua, as a Fourth Order Alchemist, grasped the key point with his professional expertise.

He quickly realized that these might be the two main ingredients for the Return to the Sun Spirit Water, the flowers from the other shore and the nine dragons’ sophora pods.

Upon hearing this, Yu Yi’s eyes lit up, and she made a call to Yi Shao, instructing him to preserve the two ingredients that were taken out from the Black Jade Box and to send them over.

But three days later, when the experts arrived at Danxia Mountain, there was an additional person.

Yi Shao and his two colleagues respectfully followed a middle-aged man with a slightly balding head.

Upon seeing him, Chen Mobai’s expression showed surprise.

All the experts present put down what they were doing and respectfully saluted him.

“Elder Yuanxu is seen!”

Yu Yi’s delicate brows furrowed slightly in confusion as she looked at Yuan Xu, who had appeared unexpectedly.

“With the two main ingredients now available, we can almost try to refine the Return to the Sun Spirit Water. I just finished a project and have some spare time, so I came over to resolve this matter,” Elder Yuanxu calmly told Daoist Yu Yi.

Chen Mobai hadn’t expected that he would be able to draw out this person!

But soon, a surge of exhilaration rose in his heart.

Because within the Immortal Gate, it was said.

There was nothing that Elder Yuanxu couldn’t do, only things he didn’t want to do.
