Looking at his grandson, who had just completed a strategic acquisition, Lin Jianguo felt that his decades of studying traditional Chinese medicine had been in vain.

Over the course of this month, his worldview was shattered to pieces by his five-year-old grandson using the Nine Dragon Cauldron.

"Chen'er, when...when shall we go to Kunlun Mountain for an on-site investigation?" Lin Jianguo asked cautiously, afraid that he might say something wrong and his grandson would cause some earth-shattering incident.

Chu Chen had just gotten off Zhou Tian's neck and was licking the lollipop that Zhao Wuji had given him with great relish.

"Grandpa, there's no rush for the trip."

He spat out the candy from his mouth and pointed the plastic stick towards the east wing.

"Before we set off, we need to get Mom a bigger house."

Lin Jianguo was stunned and didn't react.

Moving houses? Isn't Qianlongju big enough?

Chu Chen didn't explain further. He turned around and clapped his hands at the group of Xuanyao Valley people in the courtyard who had just been recruited and were still in a daze.

"Don't just stand there, let's get to work!"

He pointed to a pile of ores in the corner, financed from Xuanyao Valley, that were still shimmering with various strange lights.

"You guys, yes, the one in the blue shirt and the one with the braid, bring that dark, unremarkable lump of iron over here."

The two Xuanyao Valley disciples who were called out trembled and quickly ran over, using all their strength to lift the half-person-high piece of extraterrestrial meteorite iron.

"Director Zhao, Zhao Tiansha!" Chu Chen shouted again.

Zhao Wuji and Zhao Tiansha, who were questioning their existence by the vegetable garden, suddenly snapped out of their daze and scrambled over, their faces plastered with extremely respectful smiles.

"Chairman Chu, what are your orders?"

"You two, one of you has fire as your internal energy attribute and the other has ice, right?" Chu Chen asked, tilting his head.

The two nodded quickly, wondering what this little rascal was up to this time.

"Perfect." Chu Chen patted the piece of extraterrestrial meteorite. "One on the left, one on the right, blow hard on it."

"what?"

Both of them were stunned.

Blowing air into a piece of iron? Is this some new form of humiliation?

"Can't you understand human language?" Chu Chen's eyes widened.

The aura of the Nine Dragons Locking Heaven Formation shifted slightly, and nine dragon shadows appeared and disappeared in mid-air.

"Got it! Got it!" Zhao Wuji's heart tightened, and he quickly pulled Zhao Tiansha to stand on either side of the meteorite.

The two exchanged a glance, both reading the frustration in each other's eyes.

To think that they, the dignified leaders of Xuanyao Valley, grandmaster-level figures, are now reduced to human blowers.

"call--"

Zhao Wuji channeled all his inner strength, and a scorching stream of air shot out from his palm, slamming into the meteorite iron.

"call--"

Zhao Tiansha gritted his teeth and unleashed his icy true energy.

The temperature in the courtyard instantly became half summer and half winter.

"Not cooked enough." Chu Chen frowned, not entirely satisfied.

"Your generation of grandmasters isn't very good; you can't even heat a piece of iron until it's red-hot."

Zhao Wuji and Zhao Tiansha almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Their faces turned bright red as they unleashed their most powerful techniques.

The meteorite iron from outer space, under the tempering of two extreme forces, finally began to glow with an eerie red light and gradually became soft.

Chu Chen nodded in satisfaction, and then directed Zhou Tian and the wood-chopping team to throw the colorful ores one by one into the molten meteorite.

"Put in more of the blue one."

"Grind that green stuff into powder and then sprinkle it in."

"Oh yeah, that glowing stone, throw the whole thing in!"

The entire backyard of Qianlong Residence has become an open-air workshop for immortals.

A group of once-high-ranking martial arts masters, under Chu Chen's command, were working like factory workers on an assembly line, sweating profusely.

Lin Jianguo and Liu Zhen stood at a distance, watching this surreal scene, completely numb.

Several hours later, a colorful liquid tumbled and merged in mid-air.

With a wave of his hand, Chu Chen caused the liquid to stretch, solidify, and take shape rapidly.

Finally, a jade bed, entirely black yet shimmering with nine-colored light and radiating an icy chill, slowly landed in the center of the courtyard.

That chill was no ordinary cold; it penetrated straight to the heart, as if it could freeze one's mind.

The Cold Jade Bed of the Nine Netherworlds.

"Alright, that's a wrap." Chu Chen clapped his hands and said to Zhao Wuji and Zhao Tiansha, who were exhausted and collapsed on the ground, "You did a good job. I'll give you an extra chicken leg tonight."

The two were on the verge of tears but had no tears left to shed.

Chu Chen ignored them and directed Li Weiguo and several soldiers to carefully carry the jade bed into the east wing.

The original room has been transformed into a futuristic white space.

The walls and floors were all recast from molten meteorite iron, covered with dense, incomprehensible golden runes.

The computed tomography scanner was placed in the very center, surrounded by various strange crystals that Chu Chen had selected from the financing materials.

The room didn't look like a hospital ward; it looked more like a hibernation pod from a science fiction movie.

"Grandpa, come on, lend a hand."

Together, Chu Chen and Lin Jianguo carefully moved Lin Xiu, who had been in a state of suspended animation, from her original sickbed to the Nine Nether Cold Jade Bed.

The moment Lin Xiu's body touched the bed, the nine-colored glow on the jade bed seemed to come alive, transforming into countless fine streams of light that slowly enveloped her.

Her face, which had been pale due to her weak vitality, visibly regained its rosy hue.

"Power on." Chu Chen walked to the CT scanner and pressed the start button.

The machine he modified no longer emitted a buzzing electrical sound, but a wondrous harmony that seemed to come from the depths of the universe.

The screen lights up.

Lin Jianguo and Liu Zhen went over to take a look and were immediately stunned.

If what represented Lin Xiu's vitality on the previous screen was just a golden ray of light thinner than a hair, which could break at any moment.

Now, what appears on the screen is a dazzling galaxy!

Countless points of light converged into a surging river of life, and in the center of that river, the life-extending needle that Chu Chen had struck out shone like a blazing sun, radiating abundant light.

What shocked them most was that the River of Life was still expanding and brightening at an exponential rate!

"This...this..." Liu Zhen pointed at the screen, too excited to speak coherently, "This is unscientific! This is simply a miracle!"

Lin Jianguo was in tears, covering his mouth, unable to make a sound.

Just then, Zhuque strode in from outside, her expression somewhat complicated.

"Advisor Chu." She stood at attention and bowed.

"What is it?" Chu Chen asked without turning his head, his eyes fixed on the data on the screen.

"A few people in white coats have come in outside. They say they are experts from the National Academy of Sciences." Zhuque's tone was somewhat strange.

"They said that based on data analysis of your previous healing dragon group members and those miraculous vegetables, they... they want to discuss a collaboration with you."

"What kind of cooperation?"

"They hope to send a top-notch research team to Qianlongju, using the most advanced equipment in the country, in exchange for... in exchange for some research data on spiritual energy." Zhuque felt a bit absurd when she said this.

How can you exchange a pile of scrap metal for a divine blessing?

Chu Chen finally turned around from in front of the screen. He glanced at Zhu Que, whose face was full of anticipation, and then at the "white coats" who were trembling with excitement.

He pursed his lips, walked up to the computed tomography scanner, and patted the screen with his little hand.

"Cooperation is possible."

The courtyard fell silent instantly; no one dared to utter a sound.

Chu Chen tilted his little face up, blinked innocently, and spoke in a childish voice, but what he said completely overturned the worldview of all the scientific experts present.

"But my CT scanner can now see through souls. Can your equipment keep up?"
