Chapter 242 Substitute Spirit Summoning Potion

Ye Bai stayed in the laboratory.

Although he is currently a temporary staff member, he can use Zhang Lingxue's account to place orders.

The Imperial Capital Research Institute has quite a few treasures.

Especially the Insect King's Heart, which can help the Myriad Transformation Silkworm evolve into the Myriad Transformation Butterfly.

This is a rare treasure.

The Heart of the Insect King is a gem that can only be formed by the king of insect-type beasts, symbolizing the emperor of insects.

With it, the Zerg Emperor can firmly control his massive Zerg army.

Ye Bai placed an order without hesitation and acquired the Heart of the Insect King.

He knew the principle that the winner is king and the loser is a bandit.

If Zhang Lingxue can develop the Spirit Awakening Potion or improve the Sword Butterfly's reproductive ability, even if the Sword Butterfly lays one more egg each time, it will be a leap forward.

Therefore, it is not unreasonable for Ye Bai to take some resources.

As for whether anyone will question the purpose of using the Heart of the Insect King.

This is easily explained: it was through the Heart of the Insect King that the Sword Butterfly's recessive genes were activated, which led to the discovery of its unique characteristics.

Moreover, the sword butterfly that Ye Bai discovered laid dozens of eggs at once.

This is certainly no small matter; it is a major discovery in the scientific community and is worthy of the Nobel Prize.

If this research were to be published, my master would not only be able to compete for the position of deputy director, but the directorship would be a piece of cake for him.

Ye Bai turned on the computer in the lab and found Zhang Lingxue's research data.

After more than a month of effort, Zhang Lingxue has clearly analyzed 97% of the main components of sword butterfly eggs.

No matter how she analyzed the remaining three percent, she couldn't find a substitute.

In this study, Zhang Lingxue has figured out all the possible aspects.

Zhang Lingxue is indeed a genius researcher. The experimental data is extremely detailed. Even if Ye Bai himself were to conduct the research and analysis, he probably couldn't do what Zhang Lingxue did.

There are many of Zhang Lingxue's conjectures in it, but there are just too many raw materials involved.

If we try them one by one, it will probably take another year and a half.

Zhang Lingxue's laboratory is staffed solely by herself, mainly because she is afraid that her experimental data will be leaked.

Now that Ye Bai has arrived, things are much simpler.

With the combination of Ye Bai's talent for the Memory Palace and his Eye of Insight, finding the remaining three percent should be relatively easy for him.

Before that, Ye Bai planned to first concoct the Spirit Awakening Potion based on his own understanding. He wanted to see if it was worth the effort to find the remaining three percent of the ingredients.

After all, since sword butterflies can reproduce on a large scale, there are enough sword butterfly eggs. With sufficient raw materials, there will naturally be an abundance of spirit-summoning potions.

There are still some sword butterfly eggs at the Sunflower Queen's place, so Ye Bai isn't worried about wasting them.

The recipe for the Spirit Awakening Potion is very complex.

It requires a lot of materials and the configuration process is very complicated.

Its difficulty level is level seven. To concoct a spirit-summoning potion, in addition to talent, a little bit of luck is also required.

Fortunately, Zhang Lingxue had a video recording of how she prepared the spirit-summoning potion.

So Ye Bai watched the video again and again, examining every single detail.

Once he was certain that there were no problems with the preparation of the spirit-summoning potion, his mind raced.

The eggs of the sword butterfly are actually the main ingredient in the Spirit Awakening Potion.

It was the finishing touch that brought the painting to life.

Sunflower Emperor and True Dragon Sword were both assisting Ye Bai.

They processed various medicinal herbs according to Ye Bai's instructions.

The most precious raw material is basically the egg of the sword butterfly.

This is the main ingredient of the Spirit Awakening Potion.

Ye Bai extracted and purified these herbs separately, eventually obtaining an important base liquid.

This is the prelude to the success of the Spirit Awakening Potion.

The prepared base solution is a crystal clear liquid.

After preparing the base solution, Sunflower King, following Ye Bai's instructions, pierced the eggs of the Sword Butterfly.

A wisp of crystal-clear liquid flowed from the egg and dripped onto the Spirit Awakening Potion.

The moment the liquid came into contact with the base liquid, it emitted a beautiful luster.

After completing this step, the Spirit Awakening Potion is basically ready.

This spirit-summoning potion is also perfectly formulated.

At this moment, Ye Bai took out another dose of the medicine intended to replace the sword butterfly eggs. He carefully picked up the pipette and dripped the liquid down.

The same crystal-clear liquid, when lacking that 3%, turns the base liquid into a deep blue, like the most beautiful sapphire in the world.

After preparing the two spirit-summoning potions, Ye Bai began to test their effects with instruments, and also had the True Dragon Sword evaluate them.

The two revival potions produced drastically different effects.

Through the contract with the True Dragon Sword, Ye Bai received feedback from the True Dragon Sword.

The spirit-awakening potion prepared according to the original formula is like a mellow old wine, with depth and richness, capable of maximizing its spiritual power.

The newly formulated Summoning Potion is like a low-alcohol fruit wine, with a slight hint of alcohol.

However, the overall effect is quite average, roughly equivalent to a 1% resurrection potion.

According to online reviews of True Dragon Sword, this is essentially a very low-end version of the Summoning Potion; drinking ten or eight cases of it will still have a slight effect.

It seems that the absence of that crucial 3% of raw material makes a world of difference.

Moreover, this stuff is incredibly refreshing after drinking.

After hearing the evaluation of the True Dragon Sword, Ye Bai had a sudden thought. The greatest effect of the Spirit Awakening Potion is to enhance spiritual awareness, which corresponds to boosting mental alertness, right?
If you think about it differently, this stuff is much more effective than Black Bull or Xipeng.

So Ye Bai picked up the newly prepared spirit-summoning potion and drank it all in one gulp.

Sure enough, a cool and refreshing breeze rippled through my brain, instantly wiping away the mental fatigue of the past few days.

That's a good idea. As long as it passes food source testing and is confirmed to be completely harmless to the human body, it's likely to be a best-selling product.

"How about I add some sunflower nectar? Wouldn't that taste even better?"

With a thought, Ye Bai added sunflower nectar to the newly prepared potion.

The moment the sunflower nectar dripped onto the potion bottle, the potion changed color, now radiating a beautiful, enchanting luster, like a bewitching purple enchantress.

I must say, these two potions, one blue and one purple, actually look quite nice.

"Come and try it."

Ye Bai dripped the potion directly onto the True Dragon Sword, then took a beaker, collected some of it, and drank it all in one gulp.

boom.

Ye Bai felt like his entire mind was about to explode.

A cool breeze filled my mind.

He could feel that his spirits had improved considerably.

"Oh my god, did I accidentally discover a new drug?"

"Could it be that I also have a certain amount of luck in potion preparation?"

A cook has a kind of luck called "food luck," which means he can always find the most suitable ingredients to make dishes.

The pharmacists who prepare the medicine also have a certain amount of luck; they always seem to stumble upon the herbs that are most suitable for them.

Although Ye Bai didn't know what the original recipe for the Spirit Awakening Potion tasted like.

However, he felt it shouldn't be worse than the spirit-summoning potion with added sunflower nectar.

The True Dragon Sword was trembling all over.

It could sense that its spiritual consciousness was rapidly gathering.

This is the result of years of hard work and gradual accumulation.

A series of dragon roars emanated from the True Dragon Sword.

A tremendous pressure surged from the sword in waves.

What Ye Bai found somewhat regrettable was that the True Dragon Sword did not advance; it seemed to have stopped just one step away from completion.

After exchanging ideas with the True Dragon Sword, Ye Bai learned that the new version of the Spirit Summoning Potion, which included sunflower nectar, was still not as good as the old version.

However, it has already achieved 50% effectiveness.

Therefore, Ye Bai no longer needed to rack his brains to analyze what the remaining three percent was.

Once Zhang Lingxue has successfully propagated the sword butterflies, they will naturally be able to obtain enough spirit-awakening potions.

The discovery of these two potions is also epoch-making, proving that there are other potions besides the Spirit Awakening Potion that can help equipment-type pets enhance their spirituality.

Strictly speaking, the discovery of these two drugs was enough for Zhang Lingxue to submit her report.

Just then, an unexpected person walked in.

"Grandmaster, what brings you here?"

Ye Bai asked with a curious expression.

Su Qingxian looked at Ye Bai with a helpless expression: "I just wanted to come and see Ling Xue."

"This child is proud and arrogant, and can't stand to see me suffer the slightest grievance."

"They kept me in the dark and secretly signed a betting agreement with me."

"By the time I found out, it was too late to cancel the betting agreement."

Su Qingxian said with a helpless expression.

"Ye Bai, I heard you became the champion of the Young Scale Cup and have successfully enrolled in school?"

"Then you should participate in international youth development competitions."

"That's a great opportunity to win glory for the country."

"Ling Xue achieved a good ranking in the cultivation competition back then, and this time we're counting on you to bring glory to Yan Kingdom."

Su Qingxian said earnestly.

"I just came to see Ling Xue and tell her not to worry."

"At worst, I'll just give up the deputy director position, so that Ling Xue won't feel too much pressure."

Su Qingxian was on Zhang Lingxue's side; she was even willing to give up such a good opportunity as promotion to deputy director.

"Grandmaster, you can rest assured."

"Things aren't as bad as you think."

"You should focus on competing for the position of deputy director."

"I promise I won't let you down."

Ye Bai said with a smile.

After thinking for a while, he took out the blue and purple potions he had prepared.

"This is something I developed; it's a substitute for the Spirit Awakening Potion."

"The blue bottle only has one percent effectiveness."

"The purple bottle has half the efficacy."

"Our teacher is still conducting research in the secret realm, and has already made initial progress. Grandmaster, you can rest assured."
