Free Web NovelChapter 130: Chapter 130: The Wonderful Use of the Spiritual Pearl _1
Lin Bingqing fetched a basin of water and placed the Spiritual Pearl into it.
In no time at all, the milky Spiritual Energy began to disperse from the pearl, melting into the water and filling it with spiritual essence. freewebnovel.cσ๓
The initially clear water had now, at this moment, turned milky white.
"Master, you must look, this basin of water has already changed. I tried drinking a sip just now, and it tastes incredibly sweet and refreshing, like a mountain spring," Lin Bingqing excitedly proclaimed, as if she had discovered a new continent.
Upon witnessing this scene, Ye Ming also became somewhat puzzled.
His understanding of the Spiritual Pearl was limited; in the letter left by his grandfather, there was no mention of the pearl’s specific effects; he could only rely on conjecture.
Ye Ming examined the water closely in front of him and tentatively tasted a mouthful. Indeed, as Lin Bingqing described, the water, originally tasteless and colorless, had now become sweet and enticing.
After drinking it, Ye Ming even experienced a feeling of calming and clearing his mind.
Perhaps this water could be used to cure illnesses, a bold idea surfaced in Ye Ming’s mind.
To test this idea, Ye Ming watered the flowers in the villa’s pond with the water tainted by the Spiritual Pearl. The flowers, which had been on the verge of wilting, revived with vitality in a short span of time, making Ye Ming almost disbelieve his own eyes.
Lin Bingqing said in astonishment at the side, "Master, could it be that this water has the effect of revitalizing life? Moreover, I just washed my hands with it, and the small scars I had have completely disappeared."
Lin Bingqing’s words greatly inspired Ye Ming, who said with delight, "The two effects we’ve observed are already enough for us to exploit. In the future, we can use it to discover other effects, but that’s all for later."
Ye Ming’s voice was filled with excitement, and a smile he couldn’t hide spread across his face.
He never imagined that the most important thing his grandfather left him wasn’t a marriage contract, but this Spiritual Pearl.
With the ability to repair scars, Ye Ming could develop a type of cosmetic product. Once it hit the market, it would absolutely be a hit, this was beyond question, for women’s money is easiest to earn, and they have a preference for beauty.
On the current market, there was no cosmetic or medicine that could achieve such perfect effects.
As for the other ability, it could be mixed into fertilizers for cultivating plants or directly used in growing medicinal herbs, undoubtedly yielding twice the result with half the effort.
With just these two uses in mind, Ye Ming had already discovered endless business opportunities.
And Ye Ming faintly sensed that the liquid held many more capabilities; he simply needed time to uncover them.
After today’s chamber of commerce meeting, Ye Ming truly realized the importance of money.
To completely dominate Hai City and stand at the very top of the pyramid, one needed not only formidable martial prowess but also substantial financial power.
Merely relying on doing business with Protective Jade Amulets, enhanced with magical power, and Herbal Pills for injury recovery, was far from sufficient. Due to the limitations of these businesses, Ye Ming couldn’t develop them on a large scale and had to complete everything himself, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive.
If he could capitalize on the Spiritual Pearl, he’d be able to mass-produce, conveniently and effortlessly, and with the natural world’s inexhaustible Spiritual Energy, there was no need for him to worry too much.
With this in mind, Ye Ming immediately became engrossed in discovering the wonderful uses of the Spiritual Pearl.
After a whole day of research, he had already concocted a transformation product capable of healing scars.
He took a small knife and made a cut on his hand, then applied the healing liquid. In the blink of an eye, not only had the wound healed, but the scar had also completely vanished.
Moreover, with the power of the Spiritual Pearl, Ye Ming had also sealed the Gu Insects inside Lin Bingqing’s body.
Ye Ming’s method was very simple; by harnessing the strong and abundant Spiritual Energy within the Spiritual Pearl, he enveloped the Gu Insects, letting them feast to the point of dormancy, thus minimizing their impact on Lin Bingqing.
However, to completely remove these Gu Insects, Ye Ming currently had no good solution and could only wait to address the problem after gaining further knowledge in the future.
Despite this, Lin Bingqing was already very satisfied. She had been troubled by the Gu Insects for more than a couple of days, and even one day of respite from their torment was enough to make her extremely grateful.
With this, she was now free to engage in her cultivation without worrying about the Gu Insects retaliating against her body, fully liberated from her restraints.
The news of Ye Ming causing a stir at the business meeting quickly reached Xia Ningning’s ears.
She sat on the sofa with a smile, still holding a Charm in her hand.
This was what Ye Ming had given her and Xu Lele for their protection, although it had not been put to use.
Xia Ningning had never believed in the usefulness of such a thing and had considered it no more than a scrap of paper to be discarded at home.
Today, after receiving the news, she took it out again and carefully examined it, murmuring with a smile, "I really didn’t expect you to have such ability, it seems I truly underestimated you before."
Ye Ming’s actions today indeed forced Xia Ningning to reassess him.
At least Ye Ming had learned to negotiate and no longer hastily resorted to violence.
Furthermore, after this business meeting, Ye Ming had now firmly established himself as a figure of note in Hai City, moving with ease and rising influence in both lawful and unlawful circles, with no one daring to provoke him carelessly.
In Xia Ningning’s view, however, he still had a long way to go.
Even if Ye Ming could stir up waves in the small Hai City, it was not enough to shock Xia Ningning.
For her, this was something that ought to be achieved and not worth showing off; if Ye Ming truly had talent, he should make his mark in Yanjing instead.
Ye Ming was oblivious to her thoughts.
He did not feel the need to please anyone, as long as he was true to himself.
The next morning, Ye Ming was disturbed from his cultivation by the urgent ringing of a phone call.
He opened his eyes and picked up his mobile phone, his heart starting to tense as he saw the caller ID.
The caller was Jiang Rou.
Assuming Jiang Rou was in trouble, Ye Ming wondered if the people he had dealt with last time had returned to cause more problems.
But very soon, Jiang Rou dispelled this notion.
As soon as the call connected, her first words were, "Son, come back home quickly, I need to talk to you."
Jiang Rou’s voice was filled with urgency, which made Ye Ming’s heart anxious.
"Mom, what exactly happened?" Ye Ming asked nervously.
Jiang Rou didn’t explain the reason, but continued to urge him, "Don’t ask questions now, when you get back, I will tell you everything."
