"Good evening! I was looking at the data report submitted by my assistant earlier. I apologize for the oversight and for keeping you waiting."

Ning He on the other end of the phone sounded extremely excited, as if he had won the lottery.

"Mysterious Venerable One, how have you been? How are you feeling?"

Xu Qiuyu, the head of the R&D department, also extended his warm greetings, feeling a little wistful as he recalled that their last conversation was two years ago during the Master War.

"Okay, how about you guys?"

"all good."

"All is well, thank you for your concern."

Jiang Mo recalled the few junior members of Wanxiang Hall who had come to visit him two years ago with the high-ranking officials of the Nine Departments, so he asked the two of them about their recent situation.

Soon, Ninghe sent a data document to Jiang Mo's phone, saying:

"This is their current status as recorded. Please take a look. These young people are all doing well and are becoming more and more outstanding!"

"Ah."

Jiang Mo smiled faintly. He touched the screen with his fingertips, and immediately a three-dimensional virtual projection appeared in front of him, with extremely detailed text reports and related combat videos.

Jiang Mo slowly scrolled down, reading each word carefully. He even watched some videos, gaining a preliminary understanding of their growth process, and a look of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.

The descendants who were implanted with the essence of the Demon King by him back then have already shown the potential to stand on their own, and their figures are active on the front lines of various jurisdictions, in no way inferior to the original batch of supernatural and martial arts geniuses in the country.

After a long while, having finished reading the document, and seeing that Jiang Mo was about to look up, Xu Qiuyu quickly took the initiative to inform him:

"We have kept the secrets about those children very well, and those who knew about them have had their memories erased."

"Then I'll trouble you to take care of them. That's all for now. From now on, everything will be as usual. There's no need for them to receive any special treatment because of me. A sharp sword is forged through tempering, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from bitter cold."

Jiang Mo casually gave them a word of advice, which they both took to heart and dared not slack off.

"Senior, may I ask what brings you to us this time?" Ning He asked respectfully.

"Currently, over 99% of people in China still wear superpower locks, right?"

"right....."

Ninghe was completely bewildered and mumbled an additional comment:

“Aside from the level 5 ability users who cannot be locked or do not want to be locked, a small number of other citizens who have joined various sects have had their ability locks removed.”

"In addition, the number of martial artists who practice martial arts is also very high, around 2 million. After they register in the Security Council, they can also remove their superpower locks."

"What? Are you looking for someone?"

"Yes, I need to find people with innate physiques. I need your help to eliminate the Awakened Ones and Martial Artists who went to various sects for aptitude screening. The other lower-ranking personnel can begin testing."

Jiang Mo got straight to the point: "I can teach you the specific identification methods, but once you find the person, you must bring them to me first."

"And then...?"

Ning He and Xu Qiuyu were very surprised and didn't even react until a few seconds later when they were overjoyed. They never thought that the identification method they had been desperately seeking from the secret realm forces would be obtained so easily!

Moreover, the person who ordered them to do this was the strongest Master in the world, so there was no need to worry about those secret realm sects forcibly taking people away.

"Lord Xuan, I have something to report!"

However, before he could get a reply from Jiang Mo, Ning He's emotions began to fluctuate. He was still seething with hatred when he recalled something that happened a few months ago.

"Oh? But it doesn't matter."

"On October 27th, in Xianyuan City, within our jurisdiction in Central China, we discovered a boy with an unusual phenomenon. He had awakened without any warning, with three eyes growing out of his eyebrows. The phenomenon was a crimson lotus flower that covered several urban areas. We received a notification and rushed over to pick him up, but before we could bring him back to headquarters, he was intercepted by Luo Gu."

"Later, we searched extensively but could not find out what kind of innate physique the boy possessed. It was just a pity that he was taken away like that."

At this point, Ninghe beat his chest and stamped his feet, deeply regretting the loss.

This matter caused him and the others in charge to toss and turn for more than half a month, unable to sleep. It would be hard for anyone to accept that someone who was destined to become a Master had been taken away like this, but they were powerless to resist.

"The deputy valley master of Xingluo Valley once boasted that if we dared to stop him, he would wipe out the entire city of Xianyuan. But at that time... we didn't even have time to ask for help. By the time we received the news, it was too late."

Xu Qiuyu gave a self-deprecating laugh, her eyes filled with desolation, lamenting the cruel twist of fate.

"That is the Blood Lotus Physique, which plunders the essence and blood of all living beings to cultivate a flawless blood body, ranking in the middle among the many innate physiques."

Jiang Mo revealed the answer. He spoke softly, and it wasn't hard to guess the unspoken meaning between the two. So he simply stated it directly:

"I will issue an order later: I must see that young man by tomorrow evening, for whatever reason. If he does not come, then Starfall Valley shall cease to exist."

"As for the child, you can ask him for his final decision. I will not interfere. If he wants to stay in Xingluo Valley, then let him be. Whether you can persuade him to come back is entirely up to you."

"Okay, we understand."

Ning He nodded earnestly, and the frustration in his heart lessened somewhat.

"Getting back to the main topic, I will teach you the method of recognizing bodies. Once you find someone, send them to my sect to complete part of the cooperation. Then they can leave unharmed and be trained by you."

"Okay, we will do as you say. Thank you for giving us this opportunity."

Xu Qiuyu was deeply grateful, took a deep breath, and bowed to the camera.

"There's no need for unnecessary formalities. I'm sure my reputation among the various secret realms is sufficient. Go ahead and select talents. If any sect dares to interfere, tell me and I'll handle it."

Jiang Mo said coldly, "It's only because these secret realms haven't bothered me. If they were blocking my way, I wouldn't mind annihilating them completely."

The five strongest sects were sealed by him and the Flying Immortal Master. The remaining first- and second-rate sects, even when united, were nothing more than a rabble and could not withstand the implementation of his will.

"With your support, we are relieved. We will definitely handle this matter properly for you. We will hold a meeting immediately to start planning and take action within 24 hours at the latest."

Ning He provided the guarantee, and he became invigorated and excited. His tired appearance and demeanor were refreshed and he was full of energy.

"The specific methods are all in this copy. I will send it to your headquarters for safekeeping."

Jiang Mo casually opened a portal in the void, pointing directly to the core office area of ​​the Nine Departments, and a brand-new book was casually teleported there.

"Thank you so much this time, we are extremely grateful!"

Ning He and Xu Qiuyu's faces were full of anticipation, and even the smiles they hadn't shown in a long time appeared at this moment. The pressure on their bodies was suddenly reduced by more than half, and they felt relaxed and comfortable.

"Finally, there is one more thing, which can be considered an opportunity for you. Whether you can seize it or not is up to you."

Jiang Mo sent over all the photos he had taken earlier.

The above is a fragment of the Book of Time, with clear images from various angles. The ancient patterns engraved on the surface have been concealed by Jiang Mo's technique, so only the colors and general material texture can be seen.

"Oh? This is...."

Their gazes were simultaneously drawn to the broken fragments. They couldn't understand what value or allure these fragments held that made Xuanzun so concerned.

"No need to ask. Just bring me as many fragments like these as you have."

"One piece can be exchanged for a bottle of Demon King's essence blood, and three pieces will upgrade the level and can be exchanged for the essence blood of an ancient Demon King."

"I have some cultivation techniques in my possession, which are the secret techniques of those destroyed sects. They are invaluable and can be exchanged for seven coins."

After Jiang Mo finished speaking, the two of them stood frozen in place, shocked by what they had seen and heard.

Chapter 476 Unexpected Gain, Starting a New Business

"If you have these materials, please send them over as well. They can also be exchanged for Demon King's blood."

"Drip dong!"

"Drip dong!"

Ning He and Xu Qiuyu's screens vibrated and refreshed again, with five consecutive ultra-high-definition images appearing: real images of Nine Yin Earth, Ten Thousand Tempered Black Gold, Bitter Sea Heavy Water, and Daytime Sun Pure Fire.

"Mysterious Venerable, are these the only six items you requested?"

"The resource databases in various locations are all stored in a complete cloud database at headquarters. Please wait a moment while I send this data to my assistant, who will be able to find it for you in just a few minutes."

As Xu Qiuyu spoke, she forwarded the photos to her assistant, instructing her to prioritize this task and immediately scan the resource library.

"Yes, that's all six."

Jiang Mo knew that the national treasury within the nine ministries must contain many precious resources, so he decided to give it a try.

The Book of Time and the Five Elements are things that can only be encountered by chance and cannot be sought after.

Among all the sects he wiped out, most did not have this kind of collection. Firstly, they were rare and difficult to find, and secondly, they were not suitable for cultivators. No matter how hard Jiang Mo searched, he only found a few pieces of quenched black gold and a few withered ancient Jianmu trees.

"drop--!"

"Alright, Venerable Master, I have sent out your decree on your behalf."

While Xu Qiuyu was busy coordinating with her assistant, Ning He had already drafted an email and sent it to the Xingluo Valley training ground.

After these secret sects entered the world, they quickly mastered modern technology and equipment, and deployed and improved their training grounds on a large scale.

Within the territory of China, the Flying Immortal Sect and the Three Ones Sect are stationed. These sects did not attempt to seize power and control the current land and country as they had controlled ancient dynasties in the past. Instead, they established reception offices and arranged stewards within their sects to maintain daily conversations and transactions.

The moment Ninghe pressed Enter on the keyboard, an email instantly traveled along an invisible signal magnetic field to Xingluo Valley Taoist Temple, thousands of kilometers away.

Jiang Mo remained silent, simply waiting.

About three minutes later, the results were finally in, and Xu Qiuyu looked up with great interest:

"I've got it, Venerable Xuan! There's a resource depot in the South China region that has what you're looking for!!!"

"They are two smaller pieces, but in terms of appearance and texture, they are exactly the same as the two pieces you sent."

“I have already sent the treasure vault manager to retrieve it. You can go there anytime. Here is the location.”

A location map was immediately sent, along with two rather faded photos from a bygone era, depicting fragments of the Book of Time.

"!"

With just one glance, that powerful intuition told him the answer. Jiang Mo was startled, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up in a smile:

"Okay, I'll go over now."

"Boom!!!"

Without any warning, Jiang Mo's body became ethereal, with a deep purple light contracting and shrinking, resembling a deep and cold starry sky. It was a kind of escape technique of the Void Stepping Palace, with an effect similar to the Void Portal, which could lock onto any area outside the secret realm and teleport there.

"Wow!"

Time was so short that there wasn't a single gap. Following the map's instructions, Jiang Mo crossed the void and landed in the Security Council's base resource repository in Xuquan County.

"Hurry!! Hurry!! Find it for me!!"

"That's what they're looking for!!! Hurry up! It's extremely urgent!!"

"Okay, brother, don't worry, that thing has been sitting there for too long, it's in a corner and not easy to find."

In the brightly lit warehouse, a middle-aged bald man with a large belly was urging people to hurry up into the microphone, while a few sparse figures were busy on the surrounding storage shelves.

"No need to look anymore, I'm the one who needs them."

Just then, an unfamiliar voice rang out at the warehouse door.

The white-haired man walked slowly over. His eyes, which seemed to contain molten gold, were unobstructed by any vision. He easily found the wooden box in the corner that contained the fragments of the Book of Time, and picked it up with a wave of his hand.

"Huh? Who?!"

The middle-aged man, along with several other administrators, turned around in surprise at the sound.

When they witnessed an impossible being, their pupils suddenly dilated, their breath caught in their throats, and they could hardly believe it.

"Xuan...Xuan Zun?!!"

"Why did you come in person?!"

"I've taken the items. Your mission is complete. You don't need to do anything more. I'll take my leave now. See you again someday."

Jiang Mo smiled slightly at them, left these words, and then disappeared again.

Back in the sect, he lowered his eyes and stared at the wooden box. He gently pushed it open with his right hand, and the two fragments were right in front of him.

The meeting continued, and Ning He and Xu Qiuyu watched Jiang Mo pick up the item, feeling a little nervous: "Is this what you wanted?"

“You’ll know once you try it.”

Then, this scene unfolded: Jiang Mo picked up one of the fragments, pressed his thumb and forefinger against the thin edge of the substance, and began to slowly apply force.

As the force increased, the fragment remained unchanged. When the force was tested to half its strength, which was enough to crush the ancient demon king's bone, the fragment gradually began to react, trembling slightly and showing signs of further breakage.

Jiang Mo stopped there and examined another fragment, but got the same result.

"They have been stored in the warehouse for sixty years. They are the magical artifacts of a wicked cultivator who manipulates objects a long time ago."

"When our personnel were capturing him, they fired guns at him, but the two fragments accurately blocked the shots without causing any damage. After capturing and beheading him, the people who were arresting the evil cultivator thought it was a low-grade magic weapon with a particularly hard texture, so they put it in the warehouse and confiscated it."
