Eternal Beast Taming Family

Name: Zengguang Lingdan

Effect: It can increase the maximum energy of users at the Spirit rank and below by 30% to 50% within the next three days.

Materials needed: Polygonum multiflorum, Qingyang grass, wild spirit flower, lotus heart dew

Production process: Dry the Polygonum multiflorum and grind it into powder. Extract the juice from the Achyranthes bidentata. Grind the annual dose of the wild jasmine into powder. Distill the lotus seed extract until pure.

Ingredients: 5 ounces of Polygonum multiflorum powder, 3 ounces of Qingyang grass juice, 1 ounce of wild spirit flower, and 3 ounces of lotus heart dew pure water. These can be rolled into three pills, then roasted with the Yang-invigorating spiritual fire to ultimately create the Zengguang Lingdan (Enhancing Elixir).

The recipe describes the raw materials and production process in detail, requiring no major modifications. It is the kind of recipe that can be directly applied for intellectual property patent protection.

Meng Ling carefully read through the prescription, and the corresponding ingredients appeared beside her.

Following the description on the prescription, Mengling perfectly replicated the entire production process of the single prescription, and finally, three jade-like pills appeared in his hands.

The boy's eyes widened in surprise, seemingly astonished that the pills his family had painstakingly crafted could be produced so effortlessly by Meng Ling.

Moreover, what's most incredible is that things that follow the rules of reality can be deduced and simulated within the dream world.

A ray of golden light shone down from the dark sky of the Dream Realm and landed on the three pills in front of the Dream Spirit. Finally, the golden light transformed into a ring that enveloped the three pills.

Seeing this, Mengling smiled with satisfaction. She knew that the pill had been approved by the highest rules of the Dream Realm, and these three pills would be the original samples for the patent application.

Mengling looked at the young man gently and asked, "How do you intend to apply for this patent? Is it on your own behalf or for the benefit of your family?"

"On behalf of the family," the young man said without hesitation.

"Is it an exclusive copyright or a public domain copyright? An exclusive copyright means that your family can only use the patent within your own family or a small number of entities or individuals who apply for the patent through you."

Public domain means that your family owns the patent, but other families or individuals can use the patent by paying a patent fee without your family's approval.

Furthermore, for each pill produced, they must pay your family a patent fee based on a certain percentage of the market price at the time.

However, both exclusive and public domain copyrights have a limited lifespan. Currently, patent protection for elixirs is for 500 years. Please reapply for patent protection before the expiration of the patent protection period.

Faced with Mengling's question, the boy hesitated briefly before replying, "I'll apply for exclusive copyright, so that no one else can view the details of this patent."

The boy's choice did not surprise Mengling.

"Another point to remind you is that this patent protection is not free; you need to pay an annual fee to maintain the patent protection."

Exclusive copyrights are generally more expensive than public domain copyrights.

The young man understood this point. After all, patent protection required the Chu family to use manpower and resources to maintain it. If the Chu family could truly be fair, then charging patent protection fees was only right. So the young man simply asked:

What are the differences in pricing between these two methods?

"Based on the value of your pill formula, and considering various factors, the exclusive copyright is 1,000 source spirit stones per year, while the public domain copyright only requires 100 source spirit stones."

The difference in copyright fees between the two types was nearly tenfold, which surprised the boy slightly.

However, he ultimately chose exclusive copyright, after all, he knew that the elders in his family did not want the patent to be known to everyone.

Meng Ling had no doubts about his choice. With a gentle wave of her hand, the rules of the dream world formed two documents in front of her, slowly solidifying into shape.

"After reviewing the contents of the document and confirming that everything is correct, sign your name on behalf of your family."

Additionally, after you return to reality, this document will appear beside you. Since it represents your family, if you possess a family artifact, simply leave behind its aura as proof.

"If there is no family-origin artifact, imprinting some family members with their bloodline aura can represent the entire family's power."

The boy read the document several times, making sure there were no loopholes in the description of the patent, before finally writing his name at the end.

"...

Patent applicant: Yue Chen, representing the Yue family, an eighth-rank aristocratic family in Luoxing City.

Seeing that he had signed both documents, Mengling pushed one of the documents from the air in front of him.

"Take this one with you, and leave this one in the Dream Realm. From now on, this Enhancement Elixir will be the exclusive property of the Yue family of Falling Star City."

The boy looked at the golden document in his hand. Although it felt light in his hand, it now felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.

"Lord Mengling, I have a question to ask."

Mengling looked up at the boy with some surprise, wondering why his tone had become so serious after receiving the patent documents.

"Please speak."

"The Xu family of Falling Star City stole my Yue family's patent and used and sold it privately. Shouldn't the Dream Realm punish them?"

Mengling then understood why the young man had appeared so flustered when he came in, and why he wanted to be the first to apply for a patent for his family's secret recipe.

Its gaze remained steady as it looked at Yue Chen. "That's natural, but before we take any action, we'll send someone to investigate which family owns this pill formula."

If it belongs to your in-laws, we will naturally punish those who infringe on our patent rights.

You can go back now; the staff will be there shortly.

Before Yue Chen could figure out what "soon" meant, the space around him shifted, and he left this mysterious space and returned to the patent application hall.

He looked around and saw that everyone was looking curiously at Meng Ling and him who had reappeared. He suppressed his doubts, put away the golden document, and hurriedly left the patent application hall.

After he left, a particularly eye-catching virtual document suddenly appeared in the air in the patent hall.

Patent No.: Fansheng 33925765

Patent Name: Zengguang Lingdan (a traditional Chinese medicine formula)

Patent category: Pills (intellectual property rights).

Patent owned by: Yue Family of Luoxing City, Fansheng Dynasty.

Patent License: Exclusive license (only individuals or entities authorized by the Yue family are permitted to view and use this patent.)

People coming and going in the hall immediately noticed the words, and some exclaimed in surprise.

"Someone actually applied for a patent, and it's even a relatively rare prescription."

"Tsk, this is selling out one's ancestors for personal gain. One can't help but watch the ancestors jump out of their coffins at night and curse their unfilial descendants."

"I actually think it's a good idea. If someone tests it, we can know whether this patent application is reliable or not."

In the real world, in the Mortal Dynasty, in Falling Star City.

Falling Star City is considered a relatively ordinary city within the entire Mortal Dynasty.

Unlike Thousand Spirit City, which is a super-large city, the Xu family, the largest power in Falling Star City, has a maximum level of only mid-level Domain Rank. There are only one or two Domain Rank members in the entire city, making it a small city.

It's only because it's relatively close to the heartland and surrounded by major cities that it has benefited from some of the glory, which is why Dream World Login Devices were sold here early on.

In Falling Star City, in an old house, Yue Chen slowly woke up in his room.
