Bai Mo casually found a loophole and his divine sense snuck in like a tentacle, peeking at the closed-eyed Professor Zhang, Tian Xinghuo buried in writing, and the paper beneath his pen accumulating more and more words...

[After advancing to Sequence Seven, my blood and energy are in disarray, and the path ahead is blocked]

[I want to find the West State boss and exchange a secret of the Ancient Immortal for medicine to regulate my blood and energy]

[In the Dream Immortal Realm, I discovered a secret cave]

[The entrance is initially very narrow, just wide enough for a person, but after moving forward, it opens up all of a sudden]

[Inside is a pool of hot spring, with eight large jars floating in it]

[I want to use this secret to exchange for a potion]

After writing, he left a signature, and then fed the paper into the shredder.

Whirr...

The paper was shredded.

Whirr...

The printer next to it immediately printed out a new sheet.

Tian Xinghuo reached out and took it, feeling the warmth from the printer still lingering on the paper, its aroma of ink wafting.

A few lines of text freshly printed...

[Your issue has been acknowledged by the Secret Brain Office]

[1. The West State boss has probably noticed you, perhaps even seen the content of the paper you just wrote]

Tian Xinghuo furrowed his brows, looked left and right, up and down, at the closed-eyed, furrowed-brow, fully concentrated Professor Zhang, controlling his divine sense as if constipated. Did he not shield the room?

Upstairs, Bai Mo grinned slightly.

This Secret Brain Office is indeed something, smart enough.

...

[2. Your intelligence is insufficient to exchange for a secret potion]

Tian Xinghuo stared at the printout, feeling suddenly frustrated.

This was intel he risked his life to gather, how could it be worthless?

Upstairs, Bai Mo nodded slightly.

Indeed, it’s not worth it!

What’s the big deal about eight jars?

Ancient Immortal pickles?

...

[3. Not only the Black Sparrow Ancient Immortal, but many ancient immortals have similar facilities]

[Secret caves, warm spring water, floating containers]

[Mostly stone jars, stone tanks, occasionally copper containers]

[Currently unexplained uses for these containers]

[Respected West State boss, if you are reading, please be informed]

[Secret Brain Office, wishing you a pleasant day]

Tian Xinghuo twitched his lips, feeling peculiar inside.

Is this third item meant for the West State boss?

Has he become the initiator of a conversation between the Secret Brain Office and the West State boss behind the scenes?

What is this all about?

He stuffed the printout back into the shredder, letting it be destroyed.

Then shouted for Professor Zhang.

"You... take a break."

...

Upstairs, Bai Mo furrowed his brow.

"Do many ancient immortals have this?

"Is this the intelligence the Immortal Technique Committee risked their lives to gather?

"What exactly are these containers floating in the hot spring?"

...

The sky was overcast, with strong winds howling.

In the ruins at the back of Fox Mountain.

Three giant excavators were craning their necks and gnawing at the earth!

Of course, these were not ordinary excavators, but the Big Mouth Flower Excavators Bai Mo just made.

"Ying ying ying!"

Big Flower Arm sat inside the cockpit, full of excitement, manipulating the fox paw control stick to direct the Big Mouth Flower toward the ground.

"Ow ow ow!"

Pushing down on the control stick, the Big Mouth Flower opened wide, chomping at the soil!

Thud...

With a loud sound, a large pile of soil was chomped away; when the Big Mouth Flower lifted its head, a new giant pit appeared on the ground.

The watching senior brothers and sisters all jumped and cheered.

"Ying ying ying!"

"Ow ow ow!"

"Ying ying ying!"

This one bite is worth a fox’s ten minutes of work!

Moreover, the Big Mouth Flower Excavator has soft lips and teeth, and doesn’t damage the stone slabs and copper plates it digs up. With this machine, the excavation speed on Fox Mountain can become even faster!

With this excavator, the Fox Mountain excavation team became a coordinated operation... with the excavator doing rough digs, small shovels for detailed work, small pickaxes for uncovering dirt, water jets for rough cleaning, and small loaders for transporting goods.

The entire site is enveloped by excavation assembly lines, efficient and bustling. Amidst the mechanical roar, layers of earth are excavated, and piece by piece, documents see the light of day again, then are sent off to the Bronze Hall, sent to the master.

...

"Oh my, I’m exhausted."

"Day after day, I’ve had enough."

Under the darkened sky, amidst the ruins.

A group of young men and women listlessly grasped their Luoyang shovels, digging the earth with resentment.

They had just finished Martial Dao training, and now they were drenched in sweat, their muscles sore.

Yet, while digging in these ruins, they still did not dare to be careless, because... the Ancient Immortal set a target for them, each must dig up at least four pieces of documents. If they fail to meet the target...

"Actually, if we don’t meet the target, what will happen?"

The junior sister next to him looked at Tian Xinghuo and suddenly asked.

Pfft...

Tian Xinghuo’s Luoyang shovel pried out a large slab from the ground, and upon seeing the text on the slab, he grinned widely. Today’s target complete!

He looked at his junior sister, frowning.

"It’s best not to fall short."

"The consequences... you definitely don’t want to face."

...

"A golden object?"

On the outskirts of the vast medicine field, Bai Mo sat at the edge of the Purple Earth Dragon Medicine Field, holding the item his apprentice had just unearthed, his eyes wide.

A group of foxes gathered around, their furry heads huddled together, looking at the item in their master’s hand.

It turned out to be a phoenix hairpin made of gold!

"Did the Ancient Immortal Dynasty have such craftsmanship?"

This phoenix hairpin had been stored in a box, surviving millions of years. To this day, it remains uncorroded and immortal, its surface still glossy.

Most astonishingly, the golden tail of the phoenix, down to each individual feather, was finely detailed. The fluffy tail of the phoenix trembled gently in the wind.

"The malleability of gold is so strong, it’s been carved into feathers."

Bai Mo used his Divine Sense to investigate and confirmed there were no Immortal Technique circuits inside, so it must be just an ornament of some high-sequence Immortal Technique Master.

"It seems that gold was equally precious in the Ancient Immortal Dynasty."

He smiled, placing the phoenix hairpin back into the box, and had his apprentices take it to the warehouse for archiving before continuing to study the plant stems.

Before him, from short to tall, stood a dozen Immortal Grasses. There were foxtail grasses, golden straw, black lotus corn... growing taller and taller, from the size of a hand to over two meters tall, with a bowl-thick black jade sugarcane.

Until finally, a stalk as thick as a barrel emerged from the ground, spiraled through the air, and burrowed back into the ground... it was the Super Immortal Grass, the Purple Earth Dragon!

Bai Mo’s Divine Sense spread out, continuing to sense and study these Immortal Grasses.

Combining modern botany learned in the present world with some research from the Ancient Immortals, along with his own thoughts and experiments, his understanding of plant stems became more comprehensive and profound.

...

In the pitch-black cave, a phone screen lit up, displaying a photo of Tian Xinghuo and his brother.

In the photo, his brother’s skin was so pale that it emitted more light, illuminating the cave slightly.

Tian Xinghuo stood next to a steaming spring, using the faint light to gaze at the eight jars floating in the spring.

"Alas, what a pity."

For some reason, the scenes in the cave couldn’t be photographed or filmed!

If taken, the phone would freeze upon returning to the present world, without any explanation!

Using the light from his phone, his gaze went toward the jars, staring intently at their surfaces.

"There are patterns... no, it’s an illustration, a comic strip? Or Martial Dao postures?"

He looked over and over but couldn’t see clearly, feeling that the images were too blurry, seemingly changing, too difficult to discern.

"What exactly is this?"

"It looks strange."

"Indeed."

"Should we take a closer look?"

"Closer look? That would mean stepping into the water?"

"Forget it, I won’t look anymore."

Tian Xinghuo turned and left, leaving the second voice behind.

Bean-sized beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, his body trembled involuntarily, and his legs went weak.

Because, the second voice was his master... Black Sparrow Ancient Immortal!

"Hahaha, why are you running, want to see it?"

"Master will show you!"

Black Sparrow Ancient Immortal’s hand rested on Tian Xinghuo’s shoulder, keeping him there.

"Are you curious about these jars?"

Tian Xinghuo turned around, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"Yes... yes."

"What are these, Master?"

In the darkness, the silhouette of the graceful Black Sparrow Ancient Immortal could be vaguely seen... indeed, her appearance was that of a youthful woman.

And then she began to speak, explaining slowly. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"The things you’re concerned about now, it’s a bit early.

"These eight jars are things from Sequence Six."

"Their name is... Knowledge Container."

Tian Xinghuo perked up his ears!

The Ancient Immortal spilled the beans so openly?

"Knowledge Container... what is that?"

The Ancient Immortal continued to explain.

"It’s a container made of knowledge.

"Condensed from the knowledge I acquired in Sequence Six."
