The middle-aged man was very serious; his heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was about to leap into his throat.
Whether this batch is successfully formulated will determine whether they can sell the recipe.
This was a multi-billion-dollar business, and it was all in his own hands, so his heart was pounding as if it were about to burst.
The middle-aged man kept dripping the Starlight Essence from the bottle into the container. Each drop had an interval, some longer, some shorter, some faster, some slower, causing Lu Yu to frown continuously as he watched.
This refining process is somewhat complicated, and combined with the wariness of a middle-aged person, even observing from such a close distance makes it impossible to steal the knowledge.
At this moment, the liquid in the container was also becoming increasingly transparent and pure.
Lu Yu felt the energy contained in the liquid within the container growing increasingly immense, to the point where wisps of blue aura began to overflow, swirling around the stone house and enveloping his body.
This scenery is truly beautiful.
However, Lu Yu didn’t have time to worry about these things; what concerned him was whether his efforts were worthwhile.
“It’s really Evolution Liquid,” Lu Yu exclaimed in astonishment. His shock was already immense upon seeing this half-finished liquid.
Because he had been exposed to too much evolution liquid, he was very familiar with the energy and its aura within it.
The liquid in the container already carries a faint scent of evolutionary fluid. If refined further in this manner, it is not impossible for it to become true evolutionary fluid.
It was truly unexpected for the middle-aged man to actually be selling the formula for refining the Evolution Serum.
Just as the middle-aged man was refining the evolution liquid, a thread of energy pierced through the stone house and drifted out, causing the previously noisy ruins to suddenly fall silent.
“This is the scent of the evolution liquid?” A warrior stopped haggling with the vendor and turned his gaze toward the stone house.
“Not strong enough, how come it feels like an incomplete evolution serum?” someone murmured to themselves, clearly perplexed.
Several young men outside the house turned red in the face. They immediately understood that Uncle Wang had successfully prepared the mixture.
It’s done, it’s done.
As long as Uncle Wang successfully produces the evolution serum, they could become billionaires overnight and even transform into powerful beings.
The noise stopped for a moment, then started again.
No one paid any attention to the stone house.
They saw several young people keeping watch outside the stone house and assumed that someone inside was merely conducting a transaction involving the use of evolution liquid.
This has nothing to do with them.
However—
Many people’s faces changed color in the crowd.
They either wanted to join the excitement or simply wished to see how things would turn out.
But the current outcome surprised them.
It’s really the method for refining the evolution liquid.
They remained silent and disappeared into the crowd.
No one is willing to speak about these matters; they are of great importance and can no longer be decided by just one or two individuals.
The surroundings were still noisy, and the crowd remained dense.
The person who left didn’t want to talk about these things, but that doesn’t mean the matter can stay a secret.
After the first person who leaked the information appeared, the news spread rapidly throughout the ruins as if it had grown wings.
Several stall owners near the middle-aged man were stunned the moment they heard the news.
Were they really that close to a treasure, only to miss it like this?
“My eyes must have been truly blind! A treasure, an actual treasure was right in front of me, and I still missed it.” One stall owner kept banging his head against a broken wall, wishing he could just smash himself to pieces.
On the other side, the stall owner said, “My goodness, a fraud? I’m the biggest fraud of all. That young man is going to strike it rich. If he can actually purchase it and take it away smoothly, he’ll become the richest person in the world within a year.”
“What? This must be a joke.” The leader of an organization immediately thought this was a serious matter.
If the method of refining the evolution liquid really exists, whoever controls it would essentially control the economic lifeline.
A military representative from one of the countries heard the news and immediately jumped up, exclaiming, “Where? Where is it? This kind of thing cannot be allowed to fall into the hands of a single individual.”
The king of the parasitic demon, whose eyes appeared normal at first glance, began to emit a chilling crimson glow as he coldly hissed, “Money, prepare the money quickly. No matter the cost, we must obtain it.”
A quarter of the ruins had already exploded into chaos several hours before the fair officially began.
As soon as any information is leaked, someone will immediately know the location.
Hundreds of people were rushing toward the stone house.
Representatives and leaders from various organizations have also received the information and are approaching.
For the humanoid race, the evolution liquid is also one of the most essential substances they require.
Among the crowd, there were also figures of the humanoid race.
Pairs of eyes became as greedy as wild beasts, and faces twisted with excitement.
Everyone believes that this formula is not something that can be easily taken away by a single person.
It’s extremely important.
The Evolution Liquid can 100% advance the Devil Lord to become a Supreme Being; something of such value will never decrease.
Whoever possesses this formula holds the key to boundless wealth and power.
No one would want such power to be held by a single individual.
Amid the surging crowd, many people already harbored murderous intent in their hearts.
…
Inside the stone house, the middle-aged man was adding the essence of stars at an increasingly faster rate, and the changes in the liquid had already become very noticeable.
The changes and evolution within this liquid are quite similar to those of the evolution liquid. However, there is actually some energy within it that has condensed into clusters, making it even more mysterious than true evolution liquid.
The middle-aged man became increasingly excited and said, “Sir, do you see it now? It’s almost done—it’s the Evolutionary Liquid. Do you see those few small clusters of condensed, undispersed energy inside? That’s an even purer form of the Evolutionary Liquid. According to records, even someone who isn’t a Demon King can become a Supreme Being by consuming it. No matter if you’re rank one, three, or four, this is the truly valuable substance.”
Lu Yu took a deep breath, not thanking his luck, but rather the substantial funds and resources he possessed.
At first, he did not believe what the middle-aged man said either.
Since evolution liquid is such a precious substance, someone actually dares to sell it openly—don’t they fear that others might covet it?
Lu Yu was merely抱着试试看的态度, or “taking a try and see” approach. If it weren’t for his substantial financial resources, along with the Starlight Essence and Blue Planet Soul that he could afford to experiment with, he wouldn’t have dared to conduct these trials.
Now he realized he had done it right.
Listening to the middle-aged man, it wasn’t just the evolution liquid; there was also a super evolution potion inside.
Advanced directly from level one to the ultimate level.
Lu Yu took a careful look and confirmed that the liquid in the container was indeed around one hundred drops.
Those few blobs of liquid also had five drops, with a 5% chance of producing an evolution potion. That success rate is actually quite high.
With it, a person’s cultivation speed is accelerated not just hundreds or thousands of times.
“It’s almost done, just a moment.” The middle-aged man’s bottle was nearly empty.
At that moment, a young man rushed into the stone house in panic. With a frightened and anxious voice, he said, “It’s bad, it’s really bad. Uncle Wang, I don’t know what happened, but the place is already surrounded by people. They… they seem to know that you can produce the evolution liquid. Someone wants you to go out and talk to them.”
The middle-aged man immediately realized that someone had been following them closely, trying to see what was going on.
They did not expect it to succeed, so they immediately spread the news.
Most importantly, it seems that the leakage of breath during the production process was somewhat noticeable, which allowed these people to sense it and caused some trouble.
He looked at Lu Yu, waiting for his answer.
Lu Yu stared intently at the container, his expression grave. “It’s not quite enough yet. Don’t waste my ingredients. It seems you really do have the formula for refining the evolution serum. So you should remember what we just discussed earlier.”
The middle-aged man was taken aback, not expecting Lu Yu to speak so calmly.
It’s probably not just people outside, but experts from various organizations, and there’s even a possibility that humanoid clans have arrived.
Two star weapons hovered above, yet the human remained terrifyingly calm.
However, the middle-aged man still nodded and said, “I’m a man of my word. As long as you can afford the price I’ve quoted, the recipe will be yours.”
Lu Yu nodded and said, “Very well. You may continue. As for the people outside, you can inform them that the extraction of the Evolution Serum is at a critical stage. If you leave now, it would waste one Blue Star Soul and one bottle of Star Essence.”
Lu Yu spoke to the young man.
The young man was intimidated by Lu Yu’s composure and the unshakable aura of someone who would not flinch even as a mountain collapsed.
He didn’t even realize how he had nodded and walked out.
The bottle in the middle-aged man’s hand was nearly empty. After several fusions, he poured the last strand of star essence into it, and the aura within the container changed.
All the blue light within the stone house flowed back into the container.
The energy fluctuations emitted by the liquid within the container also disappeared. It was as if a bowl of clear water was placed inside, with five droplets resembling mercury rolling upon the surface of the clear water without merging into it.
“It worked!” the middle-aged man exclaimed excitedly, tightly gripping the empty bottle in his hand. “Sir, did you see that? This is the evolution liquid, this is pure evolution liquid.”
“That’s good, very good,” Lu Yu said, nodding in satisfaction.
He was equally excited at that moment.
This recipe is priceless; no further words are needed.
Lu Yu gazed earnestly at the middle-aged man and said solemnly, “I’ll take this formula. Can you guarantee that, once I have it, you won’t sell it to anyone else?”
The middle-aged man said earnestly, “Sir, doing business is all about reputation. This formula isn’t as simple as you might think.”
The middle-aged man paused for a moment and continued, “The key to producing the evolution serum lies in the ingredients of the formula itself, but even more crucial is who holds the formula. In other words, even if someone later forces me to reveal the ingredients of this formula, they still won’t be able to produce the evolution serum. The ingredients are only one part; the formula itself is another part.”
As he spoke, the middle-aged man gently brushed his body, and a thin piece of paper drifted out from his chest, softly landing in his palm.
“This is something similar to a Star Gem, sir. Only the holder can create the evolution liquid; otherwise, possessing the materials is in vain.”
Lu Yu looked at the paper, the words on which had been deliberately obscured by the middle-aged man, making it impossible for him to see what was actually written.
At this moment, the middle-aged man also put the paper back into his chest, and the paper transformed into shimmering starlight that gradually vanished.
“It’s useless to have all the ingredients without the recipe,” the middle-aged man emphasized once again.
Lu Yu said coldly, “This guarantee isn’t good enough! I can’t be sure whether accidents might happen in the future. If others also obtain the method to extract the evolution solution, that’s something I definitely don’t want to see. I need to ensure that it’s unique—only I should possess it.”
