288 The Fang Familys Banque (1/2)

The Catalyst Essence Serum would be the bread and butter of Chen Fan's cultivation toward Ethereal Enlightenment.

After Chen Fan had gained the Azure Thearch Longevity Body, every step he took toward the next level required a tremendous amount of Spirit Qi. Of course, he could have taken his time and accumulated it slowly over time, but the earth was so deprived of Spirit Qi that it would take him at least three years or so to progress to the next level. That would mean at least ten years before Chen Fan could reach the Connate Spirit level.

However, the Catalyst Essence Serum could greatly speed up the process.

Catalyst Essence Serum was the diluted version of the Yun Wu Spirit Water, it could be used to speed up the growth of many of the Spirit herbs he found in the Medicine God Valley Sect's vault. That, coupled with the Green Dragon Grand Array, Chen Fan fan would have a large number of Spirit Pills in his hands in no time. With these pills, he would be able to reach the Ethereal Enlightenment and enter the Divine Sea Level in less than two years. By then, he would no longer need to be so careful in certain situations. Even if he had to contend with an army, he should escape unscathed.

”Is this Stock Solution number one?”

Chen Beixuan stood inside the Biology lab at the Jin City University. He had changed his appearance into that of Chen Beixuan. He wore a white lab coat and let his hair fall loosely over his shoulders. He held out a test tube full of a blue solution and murmured to himself.

The liquid's color was the deep blue of a sapphire.

Chen Fan could sense the Essence Qi floating around in the solution. This Essence Qi was very weak, and was only one ten-thousandth the strength of Essence Gathering Pill and had only one hundredth of the Yun Wu Spirit Water's effect. Chen Fan's breath contained more Essence Qi than this entire vial of solution. Despite that, a smile finally broke over Chen Fan's face.

The trace amount of Essense Qi meant that Catalyst Essence Serum could finally be mass-produced.

As long as he had gathered enough of the stock Serum, he could then start to refine them using yeast. The special bacteria in the yeast would consume the Essence Qi and other nutrients to make more Essence Qi.

Although this one vial of serum would do nothing to a human, if it was consumed over a long period of time, it would help to strengthen one's body and making one more suitable for cultivation. However, the effect would need twenty years or so to show up, by then, Chen Fan might not even be on this planet any longer.

”It can be mass-produced now.”

Chen Fan nodded and said. Xue Jiao and the other researchers were elated by their boss's acknowledgment.

”Professor Chen, this is one of the greatest inventions in human history. We have never even seen such active yeast. Although the effect of the serum was undetectable by modern equipment, test results on rats suggested that the specimens with a daily injection of the serum had much stronger physique than the control group.” Xiao Xue took out a few pieces of paper and said.

Her excitement was shared by many people in the lab, and their eyes lit up with glee.

This liquid possessed unimaginable power and could be used on any organism, let it be animal or plant. Once it was mass-produced, it could change the course of human history and help the humans make a leap in their evolutionary journey.

”Because it was not created using science.” Chen Fan shrugged.

Other than a few pieces of equipment offered by the Aid International, the key equipment used to create this serum was a few Dharma Artifacts refined by Chen Fan. These artifacts created an environment that highly concentrated Spirit Qi for the production of the yeast serum. The birth of the Catalyst Essence Serum was the combined effort of science and cultivation.

Chen Fan didn't have time to savor his victory, he announced.

”From now on, we need to work double as hard to stabilize our formula and increase production.”

”Professor Chen, what should we call it?” One of the third-year college girls asked.

”Name?” Chen Fan tilted his head to the side and let out a mysterious smile.

”Let's call it the Vitality Serum”

It wasn't until the Vitality Serum was finally headed onto the production line, that Chen Fan felt things were turning around. The Zheng Family and the Loong family from Hong Kong had invested heavily in the development of the East Mountain project and the Green Dragon Grand Array was progressing by the day. Chen Fan had brought back with him countless Dharma Artifacts and materials for casting the array formation, which also helped to speed up the project.

Chen Fan planned to plant all the herbs into the ground the day the grand array was finished.

However, before he got to do that, Fang Qiong came and visited him.

”While you are away, my parents wanted to invite you over for dinner many times.” The elegant looking girl looked annoyed. ”They invited you for dinner tonight, it will be just you and my family. It's nothing special, don't let it get to your head.”

”Oh? I guess my inlaws want to meet me?” Chen Fan smirked.

”Oh… stop … you! What are you talking about?” Spurred by her embarrassment, Fang Qiong landed her cute fist on Chen Fan's chest. Chen Fan barely felt the strike, however, he played along and shouted out a painful cry.

”Fine, fine, you win!”

After a while, Fang Qiong tucked a few strands of loose hair behind her ear and gathered herself. ”Ever since my mom heard that you are also attending Jin City University, she has wanted to meet you. Don't come to my house empty-handed, bring some gifts for my parents, that's basic etiquette.”

She said patiently like an older sister trying to show the ropes to a little brother.

”Ok, I got it.” Chen Fan let out a warm smile. However, a strange light flashed in his eyes.

”Finally, I am going to meet you again, Su Susu.”

Su Susu was Fang Qiong's mother and the person who contributed to the break up of Chen Fan and Fang Qiong.

Chen Fan still remembered that when he and Fang Qiong were planning to take things to the next level, they even had the support of Fang Qiong's father Fang Mingde. However, Su Susu remained unconvinced that Chen Fan would make her daughter happy. Shen Junwen must have something to do with it, but the root cause of Su Susu's disdain was from Chen Fan's family background.

”Although our families were friends when we were little, and our dads were classmates, Su Susu never liked us. She never showed her contempt on her face, but deep down, she looked down on the Chen family and laughed at my father's seemingly meager power. She had nagged Uncle Fang to move into the city, away from his husband's loser friends.”

”I think it was her presumption about me and my family that had driven her to protest so fiercely against my relationship with her daughter.”

Whatever happened in the past life was in the past and Chen Fan didn't want that to affect his current life. In this life, he only wanted to stay with Xiao Qiong and help her achieve her life goal, and then accompany her on the journey of cultivation. However, he couldn't stop wondering what his mother in law was going to think of him during this lifetime.

That being said, Su Susu's opinion was irrelevant in this lifetime, no one could stop Chen Fan this time.
