Chapter 597 - 260: Isn’t It Amazing to Extend Lifespan?

Chen Han looked at the three rewards, all either under transformation or in the process of being generated, knowing these rewards couldn’t be completed immediately.

He then checked the sect’s base information:

Level: Level 6 Sect’s Base

Effect: Ancient +2, Aesthetics +2, Solid +2...

...

Upgrade Requirements: 1. Wealth: (659.132 million/????). 2. Reputation: (124/???). 3. Wish Power: (56/????)

The upgrade requirements were the same as before, hidden behind question marks, obviously only to be revealed after transformations or the generation of two rewards were completed.

So, there’s no need to rush, just wait.

Chen Han walked outside, looking up at the sky, where the Chen family was again enveloped in a white light shield, with two layers of shields.

One layer covered the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Hall, glowing brightly, very radiant.

If he guessed correctly, this should be the special effect "Sincere Heart Brings Blessing" of the Daoist Sect’s Residence in the process of transformation.

"Sincere Heart" clearly connects with praying to deities, so the transformation of the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable Hall is reasonable.

The other layer of white light was relatively faint, not only enveloping the Chen family but surprisingly extending over a large area, including the Chen family, the back mountain, and clearly the oilseed rape cultivation fields.

Chen Family + Merit Assets range.

Shangyuan Village, contributing only 30% shares, wasn’t included in the range as it was not part of the Merit Assets.

However, the range for the oilseed rape cultivation fields was extensive, and from afar, that faint white light shield was too difficult to see under the sunlight.

This should be the scanning of the Chen family’s terrain, generating the "Gentle Breeze" Feng Shui Array Formation Map.

Chen Han observed for a while, seeing nothing unusual, and started to inspect the Chen family.

Everything was normal within the Chen family, so he ventured out, walked around, and discovered some commotion around the oilseed rape cultivation fields, where quite a few people were watching.

He also went over to check things out and heard some tourists discussing:

"Those people seem to be from Qingmin University’s team of agriculture professors, specializing in researching these oilseed rape plants."

"These oilseed rape plants are indeed incredible. They were planted not long ago, and now they’ve grown so tall."

"Yeah, unbelievable. It seems the rumor about the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable sending dreams to the Chen family to plant oilseed rape might be true."

"..."

Chen Han listened to the tourists’ conversations and looked at some people in the oilseed rape cultivation fields, who were cutting some oilseed rape leaves and then carefully placing them in containers.

Several county officials accompanied them nearby.

These people were naturally Bao Jing and his students.

Since arriving here, he had been conducting experiments in the laboratory arranged by Linhe County.

As the experiments progressed, he even requested aid from the university, receiving a shipment of equipment.

Therefore, he did not come away without findings. While studying that unique substance, he discovered it contained a special element, highly active and with strong division capabilities...

Through various analyses, they concluded that this element seemed to be what enabled the rapid growth of these oilseed rape plants.

To verify, he came to collect new experimental leaves today, only to find these oilseed rape plants had grown astonishingly high.

Under normal circumstances, planting to flowering of oilseed rape usually takes more than 20 days. With the current growth speed, about 10 days might suffice.

At the latest, it wouldn’t exceed 15 days for the Chen family’s 10,000 acres of oilseed rape to bloom fully.

This speed is astounding, further proving this element is indeed causing the rapid growth of these oilseed rape plants.

The key is that the special substance composition includes not just this one element but others as well.

If one element can have such an effect, what about the others?

With the latest instruments, they clearly observed that after secretion, these elements rapidly bonded with oilseed rape cells, modifying the cells’ genes.

Anyway, it was very incredible, though they still didn’t know what changes it might bring.

And this special substance was definitely not present in any known varieties of oilseed rape, as if it appeared out of thin air.

Recalling that the Chen family, blessed by the Demon-Vanquishing Celestial Venerable, defied seasons and laws to resolutely plant oilseed rape, they named this special substance: "God’s Gift."

Bao Jing and his team clipped some specimens, then immediately returned to Linhe County to perform tests with the students in the lab.

Once more, they detected the special substance "God’s Gift" and extracted the element impacting the growth speed of oilseed rape from it.

However, when they attempted to further analyze this element, they were hindered by limitations of the equipment.

But this equipment was already the most advanced provided by Qingmin University. Even going back to the university lab wouldn’t allow further analysis.

"Teacher, there’s no way to continue," a student frowned, then suggested, "Let’s try it back at the university."

"The university likely won’t be able to either." Bao Jing knew he had discovered something incredible.

In all agricultural scientific research, often when game-changing technology emerged, it came with the discovery of a special substance.

This time, he believed the special substance he discovered was truly significant, and understanding it would probably shock the agricultural research community.

"Let’s head to the Capital City to borrow equipment." Bao Jing decisively concluded, then used special culture dishes to decompose and preserve the special element.

He continuously preserved over a dozen culture dishes, placed them in a dedicated scientific preservation box, hastily booked tickets, and took the students to the Capital City.

When faced with equipment issues in regional research, they could go to the Capital City to borrow equipment, which was a benefit provided by the Science Academy to encourage local scientific research.
