One person: Starting with the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, his grandmaster uncle emerges from seclusion.

"Although this kid is usually unreliable and makes some weird things, in this respect... we can trust him this once."

"This is an opportunity, but also a risk."

"It's possible that you'll return to being a normal person, or it's possible... Although I will protect you, the process might be a little painful."

Choose.

Zhang Tianyi pointed at Ma Xianhong, then at himself:

"Trust him this time and go for a walk in that furnace."

"Or should I continue to follow me, Daoist Master, and freeload off you?"

"Whatever you choose, I, Dao Ye, will support you."

All eyes were on Chen Duo.

Chen Duo held the Sad Frog, her head down, seemingly deep in thought.

A long time passed.

She raised her head, and her previously bewildered eyes now held an unprecedented firmness.

She looked at Ma Xianhong, then at Lao Meng who was full of expectation, and finally her gaze settled on Zhang Tianyi's smiling face.

"I……"

Chen Duo spoke, her voice soft but clear:

"I want to... give it a try."

"I want to know... what it feels like to be a normal person."

"it is good!"

Ma Xianhong excitedly clenched his fist, a gesture of ecstatic joy from a tech geek who had finally gained recognition.

"Now that we've made up our minds, let's act without delay!"

"I'll fine-tune the equipment tonight, and we'll start first thing tomorrow morning!"

"Everyone!"

Ma Xianhong looked at the crowd, full of vigor:

"Tomorrow, I will let you witness... a true miracle!"

Zhang Chulan clapped wildly on the side:

"Great! Old Ma is awesome! Old Ma is domineering!"

"Um...shouldn't we keep playing music and dancing? We haven't finished our drinks yet!"

Chapter 100: The Moment to Witness a Miracle? Village Chief Ma's Technology Launch Event

The next morning.

The air in Biyou Village still carries the faint aroma of cumin from last night's barbecue.

But in front of the huge factory in the core area of ​​the village, there was already a large crowd of people.

Not only Ma Xianhong, but also many other top-tier talents were all present.

The temporary workers from NaDuTong, along with Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing, all sported dark circles under their eyes and had already gathered around the factory perimeter early on, carrying small stools.

"Ouch... Old Zhang, could you spare me some Tiger Balm? My head is throbbing so badly it feels like it's going to split open."

Wang Zhenqiu rubbed his temples, leaning against Zhang Chulan as if he had no bones.

Last night he had a drinking contest with some middle-aged women, but he suffered a crushing defeat and is still seeing double.

"Brother Qiu, your alcohol tolerance is terrible. You can't even outdrink Aunt Li from the village entrance. You're embarrassing us temporary workers."

Zhang Chulan mocked mercilessly while handing over a bottle of Tiger Balm.

At the same time, her gaze unconsciously drifted towards the huge machine in the center of the factory.

"Alright, everyone, perk up."

The clarinetist crossed his arms, his gaze unusually serious.

"This is a historic moment. If this furnace can really eradicate the primordial Gu... then Ma Xianhong will truly become a god in the world of supernatural beings."

Old Meng's hands were tightly clasped together, and his lips were slightly pale.

He was the most nervous person there, after all, the person lying inside was Chen Duo, whom he treated like his own daughter.

Amid a somewhat noisy discussion.

A series of extremely leisurely footsteps came from outside the factory.

"Excuse me, please make way."

"Where are the VIP seats in the front row? Were they reserved for Daoist Master?"

Everyone turned around and saw Zhang Tianyi slowly walking in, holding a thermos cup filled with goji berries in his left hand and a freshly steamed meat bun in his right.

Today he was wearing a loose-fitting, plain-colored Taoist robe, looking like a retired old man who had just returned from his morning exercise.

"Master! Over here! Over here!"

Zhang Chulan quickly kicked aside a woman named Ruhua who was standing next to him.

Then he vacated the middle armchair with a soft cushion and even fawned over him by wiping it with his sleeve.

"Yes, she's sensible."

Zhang Tianyi took a bite of the steamed bun and lay comfortably on the armchair.

He took a sip of goji berry tea before looking up at Ma Xianhong, who was standing in front of the body-refining furnace control panel.

"Little Ma, how's the preparation going?"

Zhang Tianyi pointed at the huge metal sphere with the hand holding the steamed bun: "I didn't even have a full breakfast before coming to see your performance, so don't mess it up."

"Don't worry, Mr. Zhen."

Today, Ma Xianhong wore a spotless white coat and his hair was neatly combed.

He stood in front of the control panel, his hands behind his back, his eyes gleaming with absolute confidence.

The setup was exactly like a groundbreaking technology product launch event.

"Everyone."

Ma Xianhong surveyed the entire audience, his voice steady and resonant:

“In the past, everyone thought my body-cultivating furnace was a scourge that disrupted the balance.”

"But today, I want to prove to you that the ultimate masterpiece of divine craftsmanship can not only create things, but also... save people!"

He turned around and nodded toward the secret room next to him.

The door to the secret room opened.

Chen Duo came out accompanied by two female superiors.

Today she changed into a light, sterile white gown that was easy for the instruments to scan.

She still held the green sad frog tightly in her arms.

As Chen Duo passed by Zhang Tianyi, she stopped in her tracks.

"Go."

Zhang Tianyi didn't say much, but simply raised an eyebrow at her, his tone relaxed:

"It'll come out after a nap."

"If you can't hold on, I'm listening outside. I'll come in and bail you out anytime."

Upon hearing this, Chen Duo's slightly nervous lips curved upwards slightly.

"Ah."

She nodded and placed the Sad Frog on Zhang Tianyi's coffee table.

Then he took a deep breath, turned around and walked into the open hatch of the cultivation furnace, which resembled the mouth of a giant beast.

"laugh!"

With the sound of air pressure escaping, the heavy metal hatch slowly closed.

The exterior of the cultivation furnace glowed with rings of dark blue runes.

"Attention all units, core formation activated."

Ma Xianhong pressed a red button on the main control panel.

"Buzzing—"

The massive body-refining furnace began to rumble deeply, causing the entire factory floor to tremble slightly.

Through the huge, high-strength, transparent, explosion-proof glass on the front of the furnace, everyone could clearly see the situation inside.

Chen Duo lay quietly on the array platform in the center.

Countless spiritual energy probes, emitting a faint glow, hovered above her body, like sophisticated surgical machines.

"Begin peeling."

Ma Xianhong's hands danced across the control panel like butterflies flitting among flowers.

next second.

"Uh……"

Chen Duo, inside the cabin, suddenly frowned, her body involuntarily tensing up.

The spiritual energy probes suddenly emitted a strong suction force.

Extremely fine, dark purple mist was pulled out from the pores of Chen Duo's fair skin!

That's... primal Gu poison!

Those toxins that had long since become one with her internal organs and were considered an absolute terminal illness.
