The old man that stepped forth was Qi Hetao, and he was simply a research maniac.
Once he saw Fang Yuan, he refused to let him go, wanting to obtain the right to research the Wings of the Sky.
“This… it’s not a problem!” Fang Yuan waved his hands heroically. “I’ve taken the Wings of the Sky apart. I’ll deliver a few parts to each research institute. If Sky University wants it, I’ll give them a portion!”
“What? You’ve dismantled it?”
Qi Hetao was in disbelief. But after seeing the pile of parts, he collapsed to the ground, crying out loud without care for his image. “What a complete waste. I can’t believe this!”
“Actually, I have a feeling that this mecha had hit its limit long ago. After going through the battle, it started to fall apart…”
Fang Yuan was talking nonsense. Anyway, nobody knew how damaged the mecha was previously, and everything was based on what he wanted to say.
“I still need your help, Qi Yunshan. I’m going to donate half of it to the school. As for the rest, I’ll donate portions to the other mecha research institutes!”
“O-Okay…” Qi Yunshan answered in a daze. “In that case, you’ll offend Sky University though!”
“I’m not a student from there…” Fang Yuan shrugged indifferently. “Also, our university should reward me for this, right?”
“That’s right. In terms of credits, it’ll be an astronomical figure! You can even request an Undead Immortal to be your teacher!” Qi Yunshan replied enviously.
Fang Yuan looked at the aircraft and suddenly said, “Hm, also… I’ll have to trouble you to give me a lift!”
“My pleasure!”
Qi Yunshan agreed immediately without giving it much thought.
…
Fang Yuan crossed his legs inside the aircraft’s cabin while going through everything that happened earlier.
“Hm, after what happened, even if I want to remain low-profile, the school’s higher-ups must have noticed me by now…”
There had to be a fortuitous encounter for an ordinary student to suddenly change this much!
However, Fang Yuan was very assured about the alliance’s laws. At least, nobody would blatantly take away his secrets.
And all he needed was time!
After all, he could obtain more information with increased jurisdiction!
By the time he found out the source of the psionic crystal, would he be afraid of anyone? Even if the Abominable Lord came along, he would just leave and wait for a better time to enter this world again.
With this in mind, he was naturally carefree.
“I wonder if I’m stronger than him now?”
Fang Yuan felt a little eager to try.
As for why he did not silence them or change their memories?
As long as Fang Yuan did something, he’d leave a trace. Before he figured out the details of the Undead Immortals and Grand Arcanists in this world, there was no way he would do that.
“There are still many mysteries in this world. A broken top-class mecha has battle power of that level. What would happen if it were complete?”
Fang Yuan silently looked outside the window. He watched the clouds fade away quickly before the outline of East Dragon University appeared and smirked.
…
“Student Lin Meng, please allow us to perform an inspection!”
Once Fang Yuan got off the aircraft, he spotted several mentors with serious expressions.
“All right!”
He nodded, allowing them to scan him with their various instruments and take some blood samples.
Although the Human Alliance respected privacy, there were some safety precautions it had to take. For instance, against spies of the Cosmic Lifeform Alliance!
There was a type of Brain Zerg that could invade a human’s brain and control the human to do whatever it wanted like a puppet.
Fang Yuan knew that if he resisted, the Undead Immortals who were secretly watching would dash out immediately.
As long as he passed this test, there would be no problems, and nothing would hold him back.
…
“Great… it seems like the school also hopes to keep secrets and won’t announce this to the outside!”
After walking around the campus, he realized that he had not become famous. Fang Yuan was very pleased with this.
He thought about it and did not return to his dorm. Instead, he went to a courtyard house. “Teacher Han Yunfeng, are you here?”
“… Lin Meng! Come in!”
The main door opened automatically, and Fang Yuan stepped in. He went to the large hall, but he found that Han Yunfeng seemed to be in a bad state.
He wore a scruffy outfit, his hair was as messy as a bird’s nest, his eyes were bloodshot, and he had a foul stench all over his body.
“What happened?” he asked curiously.
“I’ve failed… I tried a few times, but creating the high-tier brain development drug with ancient refinement methods has a bottleneck that I can’t break through!” Han Yunfeng murmured with a dazed look.
Bang!
After saying that, it seemed like he could not bear it. He fainted and collapsed onto the ground.
“Looks like… he’s failed a lot!”
Fang Yuan shook his head and went to the bronze furnace.
After wasting so many top materials, this created a mountain of pressure on Han Yunfeng.
“Eh?” He looked for a moment and was quite happy to find that there were just enough materials for one last attempt.
“Just right… you’ve helped me a few times before, so I’ll help you become famous. This was my intention in coming here today,” Fang Yuan said to the unconscious Han Yunfeng. Then he started the pill furnace.
“For high-tier pills and medicines, you need to mix in Aural Dao at the end. This is the hardest step, and it seems like Han Yunfeng also failed at this step. What does Aural Dao refer to? Of course, it’s the rhythm of a Great Dao!”
For an alchemist, capturing Aural Dao and refining it into pills and medicines was extremely difficult.
However, this was not difficult for Fang Yuan at all.
“The Zerg… Empress brain nucleus!”
He picked up a sparkling white crystal that had a white tissue sealed within.
Without hesitating, he tossed it into the furnace.
Demon God-level True Spirit power seeped out to directly control the furnace fire.
Soon after, he tossed in other high-end materials.
Every material was highly valuable, and there was no market. Fang Yuan had only seen them in textbooks before, but even so, his hands did not shake at all.
After a while, the numerous medicinal fluids started to fuse, and the pill furnace began rumbling.
“This is the most important step. I’ll refine in Aural Dao now!”
Fang Yuan smiled lightly as he channeled the power of his Great Dao. A heavenly flower appeared and entered the pill furnace.
Clang!
After a loud explosion, the pill furnace opened up and emitted a five-colored light.
The scent of medicine began spreading, and the colors suddenly began changing before finally turning purple.
“Come out!”
With a wave of his hand, a ball of purple liquid flew out from the pill furnace and into a test tube. Soon after, he stepped forward and kicked Han Yunfeng awake without any trace of politeness.
“Hey! Teacher Han, wake up!”
Han Yunfeng grumbled and turned over.
After all, he was still a Mystic. Even if he had overdrawn his energy, causing him to pass out, he would mostly recover after resting a while.
“Ah… Lin Meng, you’re back. I couldn’t find you before, so I experimented on my own. The result was, ah… I wasted most of my materials. Fortunately, I have the last batch… sigh…”
He widened his eyes, looked at the pill furnace, and then the empty box at the side. “Where is my Empress brain nucleus?”
“Here!”
Fang Yuan waved the purple test tube in his hands. “Refinement of the high-tier brain development drug using the ancient method has succeeded! If you don’t mind it, I hope that you’ll put my name down as the second author!”
“Succeeded?”
Han Yunfeng rubbed his eyes, thinking he was dreaming.
…
The core of East Dragon University, in a conference room.
A projector turned on and displayed several life-like 3d images while a group sat around a round table.
In front of them, the screen shone brightly, displaying several fragmented scenes from Moon Jaw Lake.
If Fang Yuan were here, he would be very surprised.
This was because these Undead Immortals had methods to monitor the entire planet!
After a long time, an Undead Immortal began to speak. “These are the images that the Heavenly Eye captured…
“I have to say Wu Wudi is getting out of hand. I think he needs to undergo a psychological evaluation. Otherwise, the greater his ability, the greater the harm! I can’t believe he instigated the murder of a fellow student. Does he have any human nature or respect for the law?”
“And this Lin Meng’s admission data was very ordinary. To reach Golden Core in such a short time, he must be hiding a secret. Especially that magical weapon which instantly killed three Golden Core cultivators at the same time. Interesting, very interesting. I would like to research him,” said a red-haired Undead Immortal.
“Unfortunately… the Heavenly Eye is the result of our latest research, and its performance isn’t stable yet. There aren’t any records of what happened from the start. But with the other students’ testimonies, we know most of it. We know that Wu Wudi was at fault, but he has already advanced to Nascent Soul. We’ll give him a warning and remove his professor status!” said the old man sitting at the head of the table said.
“As for the Wings of the Sky, haha… the exploration regulations state that it belongs to Lin Meng. If he donates it, it’ll belong to our university. If Sky University dares to send someone over, tell them to look for me!”
Even though the old man looked kind, his words had a domineering edge to it.
“About Lin Meng, is the report out yet?”
On the right, a white-robed Undead Immortal who looked like a researcher said, “We’ve investigated his DNA and psyche waves. There are no abnormalities. It’s not a method of the cosmic lifeforms… However, we haven’t discovered this child’s secret yet. As for his spiritual roots development… he’s already at Golden Core. Without looking at the sea of consciousness, I can’t figure it out!”
“It seems like he’s had a fortuitous encounter!” said the old man on the head seat. “In any case… as long as he’s human, he’s one of our allies. Let’s broaden our outlook. A person’s ability has its limits after all. Later on, he might even actively choose to join our research!”
“Principal, there’s a new situation!” All of a sudden, an Undead Immortal’s expression changed. He whispered something to the principal.
“What?” The principal’s eyes widened into large circles, and he suddenly swung his hand. “Send out my orders to set this student’s file as top secret. All those involved in this matter are to remain silent!”
