One second, two seconds...
Time passed quietly.
He touched his throat, a look of discomfort on his face.
Jian Ning asked, "How did you feel?"
Liu Qiang scratched his head. "I feel warm all over."
Jian Ning remembers feeling incredibly painful at the time, as if she were being pounded by countless fists.
"Aren't you feeling unwell?"
Liu Qiang shook his head, "I just feel warm, but not uncomfortable."
Jian Ning felt something was strange, then suddenly remembered that her system wasn't mute anymore. She mentally summoned the system and asked, "System, is everyone's reaction to taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill different?"
Of course, and only those with spiritual roots can embark on the path of cultivation after consuming the Marrow Cleansing Pill.
Jian Ning then remembered that she had awakened a celestial-grade wood spirit root.
She asked herself again, "Does this person have spiritual roots?"
[A spirit-testing stone would tell, but judging from his reaction, this system believes he has no spiritual root.]
Jian Ning then asked, "Will that have any effect on the body?"
For ordinary people, the Marrow Cleansing Pill can enhance physical fitness and prolong life.
Jian Ning's eyes lit up, which meant that the Marrow Cleansing Pill would work regardless of whether the other party had spiritual roots or not.
Those with spiritual roots can cultivate immortality, while those without spiritual roots become health supplements.
That's great!
Seeing that Jian Ning's eyes were vacant and she was clearly lost in her own thoughts, the deputy leader did not disturb her.
It wasn't until Jian Ning came to her senses that she realized what was happening.
The deputy leader slowly asked, "Ningning, how is Liu Qiang now? Has the Marrow Cleansing Pill taken effect?"
Jian Ning met her gaze, organized what the system had just told her, and relayed it to her one by one.
Upon hearing this, Liu Qiang realized he lacked spiritual roots and couldn't cultivate immortality, and a look of regret filled his eyes. However, he also thought that strengthening his physique was far more effective than any medicine, so he was ultimately the one who benefited.
"Vice Leader, Miss Jane, I'll leave now so as not to disturb your conversation. Please continue your discussion."
He bowed and withdrew.
Only the deputy leader and Jian Ning remained in the room.
The deputy leader then asked, "So how do we obtain the spirit-testing stones that determine spiritual roots?" Since we know that people with spiritual roots can cultivate immortality, we can form a cultivation team, which would give China more confidence on the international stage.
Jian Ning was also curious, since the system shop only sold things that she already owned.
How do you obtain these spirit-testing stones?
She mentally called out to the system, "How do I obtain these spirit-testing stones?"
The system then went silent again.
She finally understood: if the system didn't want to answer a question, she should just pretend to be mute.
Jian Ning had no choice but to truthfully reply to the deputy leader, "I really don't know. I'll think of a way later."
"No rush, take your time. It's already good enough that you know the current situation," the deputy leader reassured gently.
Jian Ning said her mouth was dry, took a sip of tea, and then moved on to another, more important matter.
"Besides being able to buy Marrow Cleansing Pills, I recently acquired a skill that allows me to copy everything." Jian Ning said, and then demonstrated it directly. Holding the cup in her hand, another cup appeared out of thin air on the table in no time. "As long as I touch the item I want to copy and consume a certain amount of energy, I can copy something exactly the same as the original, without any changes to its functions."
The deputy leader stared at the cup that had appeared out of thin air, the words 'replicating everything' seemingly echoing in her ears, and a look of surprise appeared in her eyes.
She leaned forward. "Are you serious? You mean you can copy anything? Our latest Tengyun series fighter jets, even naval vessels?"
Jian Ning nodded: "The things I've tested have all been copied smoothly, as long as there's enough energy. I haven't tried weapons yet, but theoretically there shouldn't be any problems."
The deputy leader suddenly stood up from his chair, clenched his fists in front of him, his eyes gleaming with barely concealed excitement, and his voice was several decibels louder than before.
"Ningning, have you thought about what it would mean for us if we could replicate the fighter jet?"
Seeing the vice leader's excited expression, Jian Ning understood perfectly; she had also been quite excited when she received the skill.
After all, it's not convenient to disclose matters of cultivation directly these days, but the ability to replicate weapons like fighter jets is indeed a testament to our current strength.
She listened patiently to the deputy leader speak.
“Right now, our number and sophistication of fighter jets still lag behind some powerful nations. If your 'copy everything' technique could be applied to this, we could replicate hundreds or even thousands of aircraft with just one prototype.” The vice leader was extremely excited, even pacing back and forth twice before eagerly looking at Jian Ning: “You said it requires energy, so how much energy does it take to replicate one fighter jet? How much energy do you have in reserve right now?”
Jian Ning pondered for a moment before answering truthfully: "I need to see the actual fighter jet to know how much energy is required. Based on the previous experience of replicating small items which requires less energy and large items which require more energy, the energy consumption of the fighter jet is estimated to be quite high. As for energy reserves, I currently have over 90,000 energy."
The deputy leader calmed down a bit, but the expectation in his eyes did not diminish at all. "Okay, Ningning, if it's convenient for you, I'll take you there myself tomorrow."
When Jian Ning thought about the current international situation, she realized that she might not have enough energy and needed to conserve it.
It's better to do it sooner rather than later.
"Anytime is fine tonight, it's convenient for me."
The deputy leader's eyes welled up with tears: "Alright, this matter is of utmost importance. I'll have someone arrange it immediately. If you need any support afterward, just let me know, and we'll do our utmost." (End of Chapter)
