241: Chapter 241 External Situation, [The Profound Meaning of Water Purification]

"Binding 10% of the profits to his interests means that if there are any future breakthroughs in the technology, the opportunities for us to consider will naturally be greater."

"Agreed."

After discussing it, the two had basically reached an agreement.

They were not stingy people, and with a wave of their hands, they said:

"Fellow Daoist Tianhe, we have no issues with this cooperation of yours. I will now get the Law Contract document for us to sign."

A brownish-yellow contract witness paper was retrieved by them from a secure room.

Wang An looked up at the yellow contract. It featured [Fumu] patterns and [Xunli] Laws, and it was a contract with extremely strong binding power, having been empowered by the Law energy of [True King Qingshang, the Taiyi Yutian Enlightener].

A contract like this was considered the highest specification, and it was basically impossible for anyone to dare violate its contents.

Thinking of this, Wang An discussed the detailed terms of the cooperation project with the two Vice Deans, analyzing the responsibilities and obligations one by one to ensure there would be no ambiguity in any clause, and leaving absolutely no room for tampering with the profit distribution.

The final arrangement was that Wang An would authorize the [technology for creating spatial storage devices using Void Serpent biological spatial materials], while the Bronze Academy would organize personnel for production, investment, and sales, with the technology provider enjoying 10% of the sales profits.

Next was the signing of the contract by both parties. For this treaty, in addition to their personal signatures, the two Vice Deans of the Bronze Academy also used the official seal of the Vice Dean position.

This ensured that even after they died or were no longer serving as Vice Deans, the terms would still be executed by the next Vice Dean.

As for Wang An himself, he used the title "True Person Tianhe."

After both parties finished signing, a magnificent gaze swept over from an unknown location.

It directly confirmed at the conceptual level that True Person Tianhe, the Transcendent Pioneer of the Black Iron Human Race civilization, was the contracting party, and the entire Bronze Academy was the signatory party.

Thus, the contract was concluded.

He also took out the prepared technical materials—two large books made of special transcendent bronze pages—and handed them to the two men.

After giving a few instructions on the key technical points, he left directly and returned to [Lingyang Mountain].

Just as he descended from the clouds, he saw that at the main hall of [Lingyang Mountain], Yu Tianqing, Taichang, Taizhen, and dozens of other disciples were waiting to welcome him.

"Congratulations, Master, on your return from your research."

Stepping onto the familiar cyan plaza and looking at his disciples, whose cultivation and grasp of principles had grown increasingly profound, Wang An nodded with satisfaction.

"Tianqing, what has happened over these past few years, and what progress have you made in your cultivation? Tell me everything one by one."

As everyone followed Wang An into the Bronze Hall, Yu Tianqing began to explain.

"Not long after you left, Master, that Cancong Baixiang who attacked you defected to the Pteranodon tribe, a high-order hegemon of the Beast Alliance's Dinosaur civilization."

"However, he didn't have it easy. After being tracked down by our Academy's pursuit squad, a fierce battle ensued. His temporarily elevated Law Profound Meaning suffered heavy damage and collapsed, leaving him with less than one-tenth of his strength."

"It is said that he has fallen to Mid-Tier Level 2, and he was only rescued by a powerhouse when he was near the Pteranodon tribe's territory."

"Falling to Mid-Tier Level 2, he probably doesn't have much value for a high-order race like theirs anymore, right?"

Yu Tianqing said with some indignation and hatred.

"That is hard to say. That Cancong Baixiang is truly a shameless scoundrel. He registered many accounts on the Galactic Network to stir up trouble, smear our Bronze Academy, and even claimed that the Bronze Academy favors outsiders and forbids him from exchanging for Law resources."

Upon hearing this, Wang An chuckled lightly.

"A mere clown."

"It is all just some low-level behavior; for the Bronze Human Race and the Bronze Academy, it should be nothing of consequence."

Everyone arrived in the main hall, where prayer mats, various spirit fruits, and spirit wine had already been arranged to welcome him back.

While tasting the spirit fruits and spirit wine, he listened to Yu Tianqing recount the events of these past years.

"Besides that, the biggest thing is that more and more ruins have appeared. If they were just conventional ruins, it wouldn't be a big deal, but these are civilizations from the deep cosmic space surfacing into the world."

"Without exception, they have all more or less experienced the Age of Dharma Decline, energy exhaustion, and the weakening of Laws. Even worse, some have seen the emergence of Rule Weird Tales and bizarre creatures of Law-level magnitude."

"Right now, the entire Milky Way Galaxy is extremely lively. There are even speculations on the Galactic Network that some anomaly might have occurred in the deep cosmic space, causing a large number of civilizations to surface."

"Then has no one asked those high-order masters? They should be able to enter the deep cosmic space to investigate on-site, right?"

"Actually, some high-order councilors from the Galactic Extraordinary Council said to wait and see how things develop; there have been no other instructions."

"Regarding this result, most people feel there must be some hidden story. It's just that life forms below the high-order level are not yet at the level to know, or perhaps it has been sealed by even more powerful existences, making it impossible to reveal."

Afterward, Wang An successively guided his many disciples in their upcoming cultivation.

At the same time, he also passed on the [Inner Scene Five Elements Spirit-Nurturing Earth Immortal Method] for them to try practicing in parallel, continuing to promote the development of the Five Immortals system.

After settling these matters, he did not stay long at [Lingyang Mountain] but instead headed to the treasure vault to select the resources and secret methods he needed.

After all, the sooner he got them, the sooner he could enjoy them.

100,000 meters underground, in the Void Galaxy, countless starlight points dotted the treasure vault space.

This time, a virtual projection interface appeared directly in front of him.

"True Person Tianhe, you currently have the following exchange quotas: exchange authorization for the Water Path Law Profound Meaning Condensation Secret Method, authorization to choose one Law resource, and authorization to choose three secret methods or resources."

He stroked his chin and pondered, saying:

"I will first see what this Water Path Law Profound Meaning Condensation Secret Method is specifically like before deciding on the others."

The next moment, information regarding Water Path secret methods quickly lined up on the holographic projection.

"[Vitality Water Profound Meaning] [Necrotic Water Profound Meaning] [Purification Water Profound Meaning] [Mirage Water Profound Meaning] [Gold Water Profound Meaning]..."

"I currently possess weak Law properties of Water, Change, and Stars in the Water element. For now, let's name it [Heavenly Illusion Water] property."

"The imagery of [Heavenly River Water], apart from Change and Stars, should also require Life, Death, and Purity to form a property with the complete imagery of Heavenly River Water."

"It does require more Laws than the average Law Profound Meaning."

Although he had so many exchange authorizations, Wang An did not impulsively exchange for everything at once.

Instead, he first exchanged for the [Purification Water Profound Meaning] secret method to see how the Bronze Human Race actually goes about condensing Laws.

Thinking of this, he moved his mind and transmitted his request information.

The next moment, a stream of light flew from the Void Galaxy into his palm; it was a thin, exquisite bronze piece inscribed with the profound [Purification Water Profound Meaning] Law rune.

He injected his Yin Spirit thought into it, and countless pieces of related information flooded into his mind.
