I work as a security guard at a cemetery, and I overhear the dead chatting about getting rich quick.

"Starting at a million?"

Tang Zhi stared at the purple jade grass on the screen.

He glanced down at the bottled water in his hand.

"This is it?"

Wanling was immediately displeased.

"What do you mean, 'just this thing'?"

"The purple jade grass is worth more than this broken bottle of water of yours right now."

"I know it's valuable."

Tang Zhi pointed at the screen.

"The problem is that it doesn't look much different from roadside weeds."

"That's because you're ignorant."

"Fine, you're insightful."

"What did your sect use it for before?"

Wanling paused.

"Give the disciple who has just opened his meridians a medicinal bath."

Tang Zhi remained silent.

Qin Zhao looked over.

"An ordinary disciple?"

"Outer Gate".

"How many plants per month?"

Wanling fell silent.

Lin Ye immediately understood.

"Quite a lot?"

"...It's nothing special."

"How many?"

"Aren't you annoying?"

Tang Zhi laughed immediately.

"The case is solved."

"It wasn't worth much before."

Wanling snorted coldly.

"That depends on what you're comparing it to."

"Purple Jade Grass was never a precious herb."

"The truly good stuff, you probably haven't even heard of it by name."

Lin Ye stopped teasing it.

He stared at the screen.

Within the lockdown area.

The technicians have put on full protective suits.

There was no direct contact.

First, test the spiritual energy.

Take another soil sample.

Only then was the purple jade grass completely moved into the isolation box using a special clamp.

The data on the side jumped up one by one.

Root activity: Normal

[Spiritual energy dissipation: Continuous]

[Unknown active ingredient: To be tested]

[Spiritual energy concentration in the surrounding soil: 11.7 times the baseline value]

This is no longer a question of "how much money it's worth".

A blade of grass fell to the ground.

The concentration of spiritual energy in a small patch of soil nearby changed accordingly.

Cheng Fang noticed it too.

"What if we planted it on a large scale?"

Wanling immediately poured cold water on it.

"Don't think about it yet."

"Although the purple jade grass is not valuable, it cannot grow in just any patch of land."

"There are requirements for spiritual energy, soil quality, and water."

"Your current environment outside..."

It paused for a moment.

"It's good enough if we can barely feed them."

The tech team has already started taking notes.

Cheng Fang asked:

"Where are the seeds?"

"have."

"Reproduction rate?"

"It depends on the conditions."

Is the drug stable?

"Do you think I'm a herbalist?"

Cheng Fang remained expressionless.

"Aren't you supposed to live a long life?"

Why does living a long life mean you have to know everything?

Lin Ye listened and chuckled.

"Because right now, out of all seven departments, you're the only one who's like an encyclopedia."

"roll."

They may verbally criticize, but they don't necessarily criticize.

Wanling still told him what he knew.

Purple jade grass primarily nourishes the meridians and replenishes qi.

It is best for people who have just had their pulse opened.

It's of little use to high-level cultivators.

But here's the problem.

In this era, the vast majority of people are not even considered to have "just begun to develop their skills."

In other words.

A common basic elixir in ancient times.

Put in today's context.

On the contrary, it corresponds to the largest group of people.

The technical team leader's expression changed after hearing this.

"If the components can be extracted stably..."

Wanling scoffed.

"You're planning to use machines to make medicine again?"

"Let's study it first."

"Research my ass."

"You just said that even outer disciples use it."

"Just because it's for outer disciples doesn't mean you can just boil it in a pot and drink it."

"Who said to cook it in a pot?"

"So what do you want—"

Wanling was only halfway through his speech.

Stopped.

It was clear that the topic of the modern pharmaceutical factory hadn't happened yet, but it had already seen modern equipment quite a few times.

Lin Ye patted the scripture.

"Don't rush."

"Maybe in the future, assembly lines will really be possible."

Wanling sneered.

"dream."

The technician next to him suddenly looked up.

"The latest valuation is out."

Tang Zhi immediately moved closer.

"How many?"

"If the efficacy is confirmed to be consistent with Wanling's description, based on the current black market price of similar meridian repair materials..."

He glanced at the screen.

"Conservatively speaking, it would be between 800,000 and 1.2 million."

Tang Zhi clicked her tongue.

"A real millionaire."

The technician shook his head.

"This is still a single plant."

"If it can be confirmed that it is a culturable living organism, its value is not calculated in this way."

Lin Ye's brow twitched.

"What do you mean?"

"Mother plant."

The other party said:

"It can reproduce."

"A stable planting system can be established."

"Then it's not one million."

"It's a technological resource."

The voice just fell.

Another message popped up on the right side of the screen.

[A second item has been found that fell from the cliff.]

Everyone looked up.

Switching between monitoring screens.

This time it's not grass.

It was a grayish-white stone about the size of a fist.

It broke off from the edge of the cliff.

It crashed into another cordoned-off area.

It looks as ordinary as can be.

The staff were just about to approach.

The spiritual energy monitor immediately triggered an alarm.

Tang Zhi's eyes lit up.

"What about this one?"

Wanling looked at it for two seconds.

"Ling Shi Mine Associated Rocks"

Cheng Fang turned his head slightly.

"Spirit stones?"

"I'm talking about associated rocks."

"What does that mean?"

"If there are mines nearby, there's a high probability that you'll find this kind of stone."

There was a half-second of silence in the hall.

Lin Ye slowly raised his head.

The mountain on the screen still hangs in the night sky of the capital.

Everyone else was watching it before.

The first thing that comes to mind is danger.

It's different now.

A purple jade grass.

A companion rock.

Another layer has been forcibly laid out in front of everyone.

Resources.

Genuine cultivation resources.

And it's not like before:

I managed to snag a magical artifact.

Once it breaks, it's gone.

This can be grown.

It can be dug.

Cheng Fang was clearly aware of this as well.

He picked up the terminal.

"Raise the level of lockdown around Xuanshan by one level."

All dropped items are uniformly numbered.

"No one is allowed to have private contact without testing."

Tang Zhi listened.

"Someone's already eyeing it, isn't they?"

Cheng Fang glanced at her.

What do you think?

Almost at the same time he finished speaking.

Someone in the information team cursed.

"Hold."

"What's wrong?"

"black market."

A new page was displayed.

Just a dozen minutes ago.

Nobody knows what the Purple Jade Grass is called yet.

Someone has already posted a reward.

[Seeking a high price to purchase a purple spiritual plant that fell from the Hanging Mountain in the capital.]

Live animals preferred.

Price negotiable.

Next, continue.

There is one more thing.

Looking to purchase any native organisms from Xuanshan.

[Grass, rocks, and soil are all acceptable.]

Tang Zhi was stunned.

"You'll even collect soil?"

The informant clicked on it.

Reward Amount:

50,000 per kilogram.

Tang Zhi finally managed to utter a sentence after a long pause.

"Are these people crazy?"

Lin Ye shook his head.

"He's not crazy."

Everyone was looking at him.

Lin Ye pointed to the data of the purple jade grass from earlier.

A blade of grass fell down.

"The spiritual energy in the surrounding soil has increased more than tenfold."

"The soil on that mountain..."

He hadn't finished speaking.

Everyone understands.

Qin Zhao said in a low voice:

"Someone has already started calculating the costs."

Cheng Fang sneered.

"Of course someone has calculated it."

"It will be even faster to calculate in another half hour."

"Capital, the black market, the Candlelight Society, the antique trade, medicinal herb merchants, research institutions..."

"Who wouldn't want to go in?"

He said.

Another new notification came from headquarters.

[The flow of people outside the capital city has increased unusually.]

[Multiple teams from other regions are suspected of converging on Beijing.]

Tang Zhi glanced at it.

"They came really fast."

Lin Ye was not surprised.

before.

For a tongueless soul-suppressing bell.

For a mirror.

A few groups of people can easily fight each other to the point of bloodshed.

There's a mountain hanging directly in the sky that might be filled with spiritual herbs, spiritual stones, cultivation techniques, and spiritual artifacts.

It would be strange if anyone didn't come.

He suddenly looked down at his hands.

The microcosmic orbit is still slowly circulating within the body.

The pulse can be cut off.

Even if the sound breaks, you can still hit the target.

The Myriad Sounds Killing Technique has just taken shape.

Compared to the true ancient era of cultivation...

Still poor.

Too poor.

Lin Ye suddenly smiled.

Cheng Fang happened to see it.

"What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing."

"explain."

Lin Ye looked up at the hanging mountain.

"It just suddenly occurred to me..."

"Mysterious is rather shabby."

Tang Zhi was stunned.

"Why are you bringing him up again?"

"They have to pick up remnant souls everywhere, collect broken spiritual artifacts, and carefully choose their new bodies."

Lin Ye pointed to the screen.

"In the end, all the really good stuff was hanging in the sky."

Tang Zhi thought for a moment.

"That's true."

Wanling was in a bad mood.

"You two, stop joking around."

Lin Ye's smile didn't completely disappear.

There was no choice before.

He used whatever resources the Seventh Division provided.

He learns whatever he encounters during missions.

Things are different now.

If it's really possible to get into this mountain.

There really is a sacred spring inside.

Elixir.

Complete exercise method.

Even things of a higher order.

Then why did he still stand outside and wait?

Lin Ye turned to look at Cheng Fang.

When will the first batch of exploration targets be finalized?

Cheng Fang glanced at him.

"What do you want to do?"

"Sign up."

"Your injury hasn't healed yet."

"He won't die."

"Whose ears were ringing just now?"

"That was from the Soul-Suppressing Bell; it doesn't affect your leg."

"..."

Cheng Fang stared at him for two seconds.

"The list hasn't been released yet."

Lin Ye nodded.

"Remember to give me one when you get down."

"On what grounds?"

"Hear my Spirit."

"Anything else?"

Lin Ye thought for a moment.

Very serious.

"I'm poor."

Tang Zhi burst out laughing on the spot.

Cheng Fang's lips twitched slightly.

But before he could speak...

The large screen suddenly turned red.

Monitoring values ​​outside the Xuanshan Mountain area of ​​the capital city began to surge.

at the same time.

In the clouds.

The direction of the mountain gate of that upside-down ancient mountain.

Bright.

It is not a lamp.

Instead, they are in a whole row.

Start from the stone steps at the foot of the mountain.

First order.

First order.

Upwards.

It looks like someone is inside.

The lamp, which had been dormant for two thousand years, was lit.

Let's light it up again.
