Official Takeover, Surging Origin Points

At the same time, the authorities urgently dispatched several more large helicopters. Besides medical personnel, these helicopters carried elite official troops and relevant scientific researchers to take over the scene and orderly evacuate personnel, adopting a rather forceful approach.

Seeing this, the onlookers from outside had no choice. They had already seen all the excitement they could. Facing the authorities who were now serious, they could only obediently turn and leave. Fortunately, the authorities did not demand that they delete the footage from their phones, likely because there were too many witnesses and the matter had already spread widely online.

Previously, the demonized remains of Basiba had gone berserk, overpowering the elite special forces of the authorities and causing considerable damage. Nearly half of them had lost their combat effectiveness, with many injured. However, compared to the loss of personnel, the gains within the Wu Ming Ruins were quite substantial.

First, there were the Blood Qi Puppet materials that defied common sense and held immense research value, as well as miraculous medicinal herbs and precious plants with wondrous effects. There were also cultivation methods involving extraordinary powers. Of course, besides these, the most exciting discovery was the demonized remains of the Great Yuan Imperial Advisor Basiba, whose value was unimaginable.

Soon, under the command of the researchers, the elite official troops rappelled into the crater created by the self-destruction of Basiba's demonized remains. Wearing isolation gloves, they carefully picked up the half-body remains from the bottom of the pit. Even as a dried corpse, its weight was unexpectedly heavy.

It took three to four people to lift it inch by inch from the bottom of the crater, and then it was quickly placed into a sealed medical specimen bag.

Of course, the flesh and bones of the other half of the shattered thousand-man commander-level Blood Qi Puppet were also collected. These were all precious experimental materials.

Meanwhile, Gu Chen and Liu Qing'er stood with Fang Xiu, Li Xingming, Wang Xiaoai, Ye Zhen, and others, along with four Transforming Strength Great Boxers. Officials also approached them.

Primarily, the previous videos had played a role. The combat effectiveness of these Transforming Strength Great Boxers, who had cultivated the Five Organs chapter of the Human Immortal Martial Dao, had greatly increased, prompting the authorities to be quite courteous and seek to recruit them. The value of these Transforming Strength Great Boxers could be seen from the videos of their intense clashes with the demonized remains of Basiba.

Of course, the most important point was that the current Wu Ming Ruins only contained a portion of the Great Yuan Imperial Advisor Basiba's demonized remains – his hands and part of his torso, along with the lower torso and head. No one knew where these two parts of his remains were sealed.

From the previous disastrous defeat of the elite special forces, one could see the power of the Great Yuan Imperial Advisor Basiba's demonized remains. The other dismembered and sealed parts of his body were certainly no less formidable. If the ruins were to appear later, they would eventually have to face them, and at that time, they would still rely on these high-level powerhouses who practiced the Human Immortal Martial Dao.

Furthermore, and more importantly, the Human Immortal Martial Dao recorded in the Wu Ming Ruins currently only included a portion related to the Five Organs chapter. According to the inscriptions on the stone tablets, there were suspected later chapters on Marrow Cleansing and Blood Changing. According to researchers' speculation, these subsequent cultivation methods might also be located in the ruins where the Great Yuan Imperial Advisor Basiba's demonized remains were sealed.

Cultivation methods involving extraordinary powers, coupled with the powerful descriptions of Martial Dao Human Immortals related to the Wu Ming Ruins – living for three hundred years, with blood and qi like a dragon, capable of shattering mountains with a single punch – these were practically walking artillery platforms. If they wished, they could cause immense destruction in any city in the world. Ordinary firearms and artillery would pose no threat to such beings, unless one resorted to area-of-effect weapons of mass destruction like missiles, and was willing to pay any price to deal with them.

In response to the approach from the authorities, except for Fang Hansong, who was already an instructor hired by the authorities, the other three Transforming Strength Great Boxers had varied reactions. They showed little interest in the authorities' invitations. Coupled with Gu Chen's previous persona of "making the fake real," one disguised as a beggar, another a Taoist unconcerned with worldly affairs in a remote mountain temple, and a woman pursuing the Martial Dao.

Of course, they did not refuse outright, merely mentioning potential cooperation in the future.

As their disciples, Liu Qing'er, Fang Xiu, Li Xingming, Wang Xiaoai, and Ye Zhen also received significant attention. Their relevant information had likely already caught the authorities' eye, and they might even be discussing how to use them to foster good relations with these Transforming Strength Great Boxers.

After some exchange, everyone returned to Da She Village, got into their cars, and left.

This exploration of the Wu Ming Ruins was a super success for everyone. Not only did they obtain many precious medicinal herbs and rare plants, but they also acquired a portion of the Human Immortal Martial Dao cultivation methods hidden deep within the ruins. Although they did not yet meet the requirements for cultivation, they finally had a glimmer of hope and a direction to strive for.
