Chapter 496 277: Ancient Immortal: Saw a Living Ghost Today!
The night was deep.
The sky was covered with some dark clouds, obscuring the stars and the moon.
The Ancient Immortal Arena was such an enormous chasm that when standing at the edge and looking downwards, one could only see the tiny figure on the brightly lit stage below, where Su Yaoyao stood.
Su Yaoyao could be seen standing by a pile of Gray Shadow Flowers that wouldn't bloom, her hands in a pleading gesture, muttering to herself, saying something unknown.
"It's not so fast... Even if the genes are reverted, these Immortal Grasses, wanting to bloom, wanting to bear fruit, wanting to be used as seeds, also need a process.
"Begging here isn't as good as watering the Immortal Grasses more to help them grow again."
Bai Mo grumbled, turning his head to look beside him, where Professor Zhang, Chairman Chen Shu, Committee Member Gu Lin, and others were present. Professor Qin, Professor Gan, Secretary Zhang, and others were also here, standing at the edge of this chasm, craning their necks to look down.
"Can this be useful?"
"I heard the cause of this incident has already been found out, some Black Ghost Eye disaster, which even in the Ancient Immortal Dynasty is hard to handle."
"It counts as a piece of hope, at least."
Bai Mo's phone vibrated in his pocket. He took it out, and it was a program error screenshot sent by Qu Hailou.
[Expert Bai Mo, how should we handle this error?]
Is this... an error in the Immortal Grass analysis program?
Are they still busy doing experiments, doing analysis?
Bai Mo turned his head and, indeed, saw the experiment building in the distance brightly lit. Busy figures could often be seen moving around through the windows.
He looked down and replied.
[Filter out all images with too much noise in the input]
Qu Hailou immediately responded.
[Understood! I'll keep grinding!]
Mo Lanyou came over, his hair also messy, his face full of exhaustion.
He knew the terror and difficulty of the Black Ghost Eye disaster and didn't hold much hope for tonight's "summoning ritual."
At this moment, he came over and spoke in a low voice.
"Expert Bai Mo, what's your relationship with Committee Member Su?
"I just saw you two, it seemed like..."
Bai Mo pulled a wry smile, unsure how to answer, but saw Mo Lanyou suddenly pull out his phone and unlock the screen.
Bai Mo caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye; it was a group called [West State Boss Anti-Black Stronghold], where someone was @ing him.
[@Wild Gatling, group leader, the forum has many haters again, attacking our big boss over the Immortal Grass lockdown]
He immediately turned sideways to block the phone screen from Bai Mo's view.
"Ah, sorry, I need to reply to a work message, Expert Bai Mo, please wait a moment."
Bai Mo's expression was peculiar; are there so many haters of the West State Boss recently?
Bai Mo's own phone also rang. He took it out and saw it was from Master Chong.
[The stock market closed, and I invested all my assets, betting on the Immortal Grass company]
[I believe you all can overcome the difficulties!]
[Many stocks that weren't sold are being cursed in the forum]
[Those sold are gloating]
[My sellers are calling me a fool, humph, I'm waiting to slap their faces!]
Bai Mo put away his phone and saw at the bottom of the arena, Su Yaoyao seemed to have finished her muttering. Surprisingly, she placed the Wine Vessel Flower on the table and, alongside Peacock Red Treasure, performed a deep bow that didn't end towards the Wine Vessel Flower.
"Hey, this déjà vu really feels like a rain prayer."
And at that moment...
Whoosh!
In the darkness of the night, a cold wind suddenly rose!
Crack!
Above the night sky, a lightning snake suddenly appeared!
The air quickly turned cold and damp.
Did this rain prayer actually succeed?
...
Poison Master Wang E sat in front of the computer, helping his master refresh web pages, checking various rumors.
"This person said... said in West State City, they are trying to contact the West State Boss to ask for help..."
In his mind, inside the Bronze Hall.
The Medicine Monkey Ancient Immortal gave a crooked smile.
"What a joke.
"Don't mention the West State Boss, even if the Emperor himself returned in this era, he couldn't solve the Black Ghost Eye disaster, hahahahahaha."
A bottle of Flower Carved Wine was opened on the small table in front of him, accompanied by an electric hot pot.
The hot pot was boiling with slices of meat, tofu, and fish balls.
At this moment, he was eating and drinking to his heart's content.
Indeed, this electric hot pot used electricity from the generator allocated to the freezer electron microscope. And that electron microscope lay abandoned in the corner, gathering dust for a long time.
He raised his glass and virtually lifted it towards the distance.
"Old brothers, the Black Ghost Eye we managed together, let's drink together and celebrate.
"Just a pity, sealed in the dream, unable to really clink glasses.
"Sharing this moment across the horizon!"
...
Splash...
The heavy rain poured down from the night sky, instantly spreading across the earth, drenching the darkness.
On the stage at the bottom of the arena, both Su Yaoyao and Peacock Red Treasure were soaked to the skin.
The Wine Vessel Flower was washed clean of dust by the rain, appearing more verdant.
Several basins of unbloomed Gray Shadow Flowers, drenched by the rain, drank heartily, and in a whispering sound, buds emerged, and flowers bloomed!
Su Yaoyao's hair was wet from the rain, sticking to her face, as she caught the faint scent of flowers.
She lifted her head and saw the blooming Gray Shadow Flowers, her eyes full of astonishment.
"Did they... really bloom?"
...
Outside the arena.
The large umbrella was made to rattle by the rain. Under the umbrella, Chairman Chen Shu looked towards the basins of Gray Shadow Flowers at the bottom of the chasm, eyes wide open!
"Damn!?"
Committee Member Gu Lin, listening to the call, was overjoyed and eager to share the good news.
"Not only these few basins, but in the open-air planting base, many Gray Shadow Flowers that got drenched in rain have also bloomed!"
Professor Zhang looked at his phone, his face full of disbelief.
"The latest laboratory test results have come out, the latest batch of sampled Immortal Grass, not just Gray Shadow Flowers, Seven Extremes Purple, Yunluo Grass, Centennial Mushroom, all Immortal Grass biochemical indicators have returned to normal!
