" Fairy Miaoyin, we are friends since we met here, there's no need to be so formal."
You might not know this, but the once wildly popular " The Legend of the Immortal Sword and Gallant Heroes " in our theater was actually created by Chen Mu!
Hou Sailei very tactful; with just a few words, he steered the conversation to an area that both of them were interested in.
"Really? ' Legend of the Immortal Sword and Gallant Heroes ' is one of my favorite fantasy dramas. Although the animation quality of the first few episodes was a bit rough, the storyline was so touching that I watched it several times."
Su Miaoyin's beautiful eyes flickered, and she looked at Chen Mu with a hint of reverence.
"Haha, you flatter me! I had just joined the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion to learn, mainly to accumulate contribution points."
Chen Mu spoke the truth, but others saw it as humility.
It's important to understand that the fantasy drama industry has a profound commercial impact and is highly competitive. Su Miaoyin's Miaoyin Workshop is quite famous in the Central Land, but there isn't a single fantasy drama that can reach the influence of " The Legend of the Immortal Sword and Gallant Heroes ".
"Imperial Preceptor, there is no need for modesty. I have cultivated the Dao of the Seven Emotions for many years and know that human love, though seemingly simple, is the most moving."
"You are so young, yet you have created such a moving fantasy drama; it is no exaggeration to call you a genius..."
Su Miaoyin, dressed in a flowing, feathered gown, accentuated the curves of her delicate and alluring figure, making her look incredibly captivating.
The three sat down, Hou Sailei made tea for the two of them. They chatted while sipping tea, and the atmosphere became increasingly harmonious.
"I see. The Floating Light and Fleeting Shadow Recorder was indeed my invention, but I haven't touched it for years. I didn't expect Xiaohan to sell it so well, haha..."
After chatting for a while, Chen Mu discovered that the reason Su Miaoyin came to the Chen Kingdom was that she most wanted to buy the Floating Light and Fleeting Shadow Recorder that he had invented.
Back when Chen Mu was at the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion, he wrote the core program for the Floating Light and Fleeting Shadow Recorder. He originally intended to make money with this method, but later he found a more profitable way, so he didn't study it much anymore.
After establishing the Rune Research Institute, he made the manufacturing method of the Floating Light and Fleeting Shadow Recorder public internally. Later, Guo Xiaohan took a liking to it and promoted the mass production of the Floating Light and Fleeting Shadow Disc, bringing huge benefits to the current Chen Kingdom.
"Now, the theater business in the Central Land is basically monopolized by the Vast Sea Theater. Other theaters can only produce a dozen or so fantasy plays a year at most, while you can produce hundreds, and even update sequels every day. Other theaters simply cannot compete with you."
Su Miaoyin glared at Hou Sailei reproachfully, and Hou Sailei could only give an awkward laugh.
Chen Mu didn't have any objection to the sale of the recorder. In any case, even if other theaters had recorders, the core technology would still be in the hands of the Rune Research Institute.
The core of all the products manufactured by the Rune Research Institute is the Rune Core. The Rune Core is extremely precise and is the product of Chen Mu Mu's integration of the Rune Ancestor and computer thinking. Even if someone really wanted to imitate it, it would be impossible without thousands of years of research.
If Chen Mu were given several thousand more years, he believed he would have reached another peak that others could not reach.
The three chatted for over an hour, and only when it was late at night did they say their goodbyes.
Chen Mu had been in seclusion for the past few years, and had been relatively cut off from news from the outside world. After tonight's casual conversation, he heard many interesting things and was in a great mood.
After reuniting with his mother, he invited Lin Weizi and Ye Jinglan to join him on Rune Puppet Flying Car to go home.
After returning home, Chen Mu went to his room to rest, but Meng Hui wanted to arrange for Lin Weizi and Ye Jinglan to stay in Chen Mu's side room.
"Mother, why did you let them live in my side room?"
The architecture of this world is very similar to that of ancient China. People of high status like Chen Mu have side rooms in their rooms, which are connected to the main room. This is mainly to make it convenient for their personal maids to serve their masters in the middle of the night.
"For no reason other than to make it easier for them to serve you!"
Meng Hui glared at Chen Mu defiantly, secretly pleased with herself.
Chen Mu quickly figured out what Meng Hui was up to, and could only shake his head helplessly, deciding it would be better to just pretend the two of them didn't exist.
"You two, you must serve the Grand Preceptor well tonight. If he is even slightly dissatisfied, you know the consequences!"
Meng Hui had also survived in a dog-eat-dog world since childhood, and she was not a soft-hearted person. Under her threats, neither of the two women dared to resist and could only obediently pack their belongings and move into Chen Mu's side room.
Nothing more was said that night.
The next day, after having breakfast with his mother, Chen Mu decided to go to the Ancient Desolate Mining Area.
Buzz... Swoosh!
Chen Mu piloted the Rune Puppet Flying Car, activating its teleportation mode. The Rune Puppet Flying Car shimmered with blue light, and after a dozen breaths, he arrived at the Ancient Desolate Mining Area.
Five years ago, after stabilizing the situation in the Chen Kingdom, Chen Mu led his people to establish a stable passage in the purple mist, officially connecting the Ancient Desolate Mining Area with the outside world.
To prevent any anomalies from occurring in the Ancient Desolate Mining Area, Chen Mu specifically invited the White Turtle to help him find out what was hidden deep within the Ancient Desolate Mining Area.
After returning from his investigation, the White Turtle was also wary of the sleeping creature in the mining area. He told Chen Mu that the creature seemed to have suffered severe damage to its Divine Soul and was sealed inside a huge amethyst crystal.
That creature is unlikely to awaken for hundreds of years. As long as Chen Mu's men don't get too close to the center of the mining area, they won't disturb him.
As for the purple mist surrounding the entire mining area, it is exhaled from the creature's nose, and monsters that guard this mining area are constantly being born from it. There is currently no way to deal with this; we can only send people to clear them out every now and then.
With the White Turtle's words, Chen Mu felt relieved and established a base in the Ancient Desolate Mining Area specifically for collecting Purple Soul Crystal ore. He also set up the Battle Talisman Branch of the Rune Research Institute there, with Nangong Tong in charge.
call...!
Chen Mu drove the Rune Puppet Flying Car to the Battle Talisman Branch and landed inside.
"Master!"
"Grandmaster!" "Grandmaster!"...
After Chen Mu stepped out of the flying car, Nangong Tong greeted him warmly, followed by many disciples of the Battle Talisman Department.
Within the Battle Talisman Department, only Nangong Tong was accepted as a disciple by Chen Mu. Everyone else was taught the Dao of Battle Talismans by Nangong Tong, so everyone else called Chen Mu their grandmaster.
"I came here today to check on your cultivation progress. Little Tong, what is the current strength distribution within the Battle Talisman Department?"
Chen Mu went straight to the point as soon as he arrived, asking in a loud voice.
The Battle Talisman Department was a crucial part of his plan to wage war against the Otherworldly Demon, and he valued it highly.
"Reporting to Master, the Battle Talisman Department currently has over 3,600 disciples, including eight at the Dharma Core Realm, over 380 at the Dharma Body Realm, over 1,200 at the Dharma Entry Realm, and the rest at the Dharma Tempering Realm."
