Chapter 480: The Shocked Book Division Dean

~16 min read 3,029 words

The next day.

Long Xuan sent out all his clones, using the method of distributing flyers on the street in his previous life, and distributed the novels to the passersby on the street for free.

This method of distributing flyers hadn't appeared in this world yet. It had to be said that this behavior was a bit awkward, but it was the clones who were awkward, not him, Long Xuan, so he decided happily.

Over the next few days, "Journey to the West" didn't cause much of a disturbance. Saint Gu City was calm, but this was just an undercurrent surging under the calm.

Long Xuan wasn't in a hurry. Let the bullets fly for a while. After all, reading a book required a process.

As long as someone discovered the secret in the book, then "Journey to the West" would be hard not to become popular even if it wanted to.

He didn't even need to waste time promoting it. The crazy crowd would copy it themselves. He didn't even need to go to more distant regions. Many people would bring the books to more distant regions. Before long, "Journey to the West" would appear in every corner of the world and be sought after by countless people.

On this day, in the Book Book Division of the Saint Gu Book Division.

Novels belonged to a desert in this world. In order to stimulate people's enthusiasm for reading novels and to let more excellent works emerge in this world, the Book Book Division had to hold a writing competition from time to time.

Those whose works won the top three places would all have generous rewards, so every writing competition attracted many people to participate.

On this day, a novel named "Journey to the West" was presented to the Book Book Division Dean, Shu Zheng.

"Is this the novel that has been very popular in the whole city recently? I heard that this book has a high degree of discussion. Once it appeared, it captured a large number of book fans. It has been a long time since a phenomenal work appeared in the city."

The Dean took the thick novel from his assistant's hand and revealed an interested expression.

"I have read this book. The protagonist is a monkey. It seems to be the prototype of Qi Chi. The weapons used are all sticks, and they all have the similar plot of worshiping humans as teachers to learn arts, and finally leading a monkey army in armor to attack the human world."

"The topic of Qi Chi has not faded to this day, so this book, which takes Qi Chi as the prototype, became popular in the whole city as soon as it appeared."

The young assistant in front of the Dean stood respectfully in front of him, his expression wanting to speak but stopping, but in the end, he didn't say anything more.

Some things are far more shocking to see than to say.

"Oh? Taking Qi Chi as the prototype? Not taking a human as the protagonist but a beast as the protagonist?"

"It really has a good idea. This idea is innovative enough and bold enough. It has already aroused my interest in reading."

Dean Shu Zheng revealed a smile on his face, opened the book cover, and immediately studied it.

The reading speed of a Gu King was extremely fast. Under the perception of soul power, he could basically read ten lines at a glance.

Therefore, he turned the pages as fast as the wind, and it didn't take a few seconds to turn a page. The more he read, the more interested he became. As the story progressed, his emotions began to fluctuate with the plot in the story, and he gradually became addicted, unable to extricate himself from the wonderful story.

Before long, he finally saw the plot of the monkey going out to sea to worship a teacher to learn arts.

Seeing the monkey kneeling in front of the mountain gate for a long time before finally moving Bodhi Patriarch, his mouth curled up. Sure enough, it referenced the experience of Qi Chi worshiping a teacher to learn arts. This plot was truly a bit touching.

If Long Xuan were present at this time, he would definitely shout injustice. The plot in Journey to the West had parts similar to Qi Chi's experience, which was completely a coincidence, and he didn't copy Qi Chi's experience at all.

It made it seem like he was plagiarizing, which was simply unjust to death. Sun Wukong being seen by the vast number of people as the prototype of Qi Chi was something he had never expected.

Shu Zheng turned a page again, and the content of this page was that Bodhi Patriarch taught the monkey a heaven-defying cultivation method named "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique."

The story here entered a better state...

The monkey worshiped a teacher to learn arts for the purpose of learning longevity, and this cultivation method named "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique" contained the path of longevity.

Once the cultivation was completed, one could have the same longevity as Heaven, no illness, jump out of reincarnation, ten thousand calamities without aging...

And below the cultivation method was the content about this cultivation method:

【The content of the cultivation method...】

It was endless, and there was a long, long section behind it that couldn't be finished at all.

He couldn't help but curse in his heart: "Damn it, he can really water the word count, simply flooding Jinshan."

However, he soon froze, and his eyes became more and more grave, revealing an expression of disbelief.

With his peak Gu King realm, he suddenly discovered that this didn't seem to be written blindly; this seemed to be a real cultivation method.

"Holy crap! This brat actually inserted a cultivation method into the novel. He is probably a freak!"

Shu Zheng widened his eyes and stood up from his chair instantly. At this moment, he was completely unable to remain calm.

Seeing the Dean in such an incomparable state of loss, the assistant smiled secretly in his heart, but his expression didn't change. At this time, he suddenly interjected:

"This cultivation method is the real reason I came to find the Dean. If "Journey to the West" can become popular in the whole city based on the wonderful degree of the story alone, if there is such a cultivation method that can be cultivated in "Journey to the West," then it can probably become popular in the whole world."

The assistant's mouth couldn't help but twitch twice. A novel that could be read by people all over the world had never appeared from ancient times to the present.

But today, this novel named "Journey to the West" might become the first novel in history to be read by people all over the world.

How strong would a Book Gu refined from such a world-popular novel be? He didn't even dare to think about it.

He didn't know how strong such a Book Gu would be, because this degree of Book Gu had never appeared in history. This was the first time in history, and the strength was completely unknown.

"Holy crap!" Hearing that this novel might become popular in the whole world, Shu Zheng couldn't help but curse again.

He had to be in a state of loss at this moment. The appearance of a novel that could be read by people all over the world was his dream all along. He didn't expect that someone had finally realized it today. He simply couldn't believe his eyes.

"If you want everyone to read this novel, the cultivation method in the novel must be very strong. You should have already read it. Can you see the strength of this cultivation method?"

Shu Zheng suddenly turned his head to look at him, his tone very serious.

The assistant nodded and said gravely: "The cultivation method in the book is only a remnant, and it doesn't have the effect of making people live forever."

"This is truly a pity, but it is also inevitable. A cultivation method that can make people live forever is definitely not something that can be created by someone below the Gu King realm."

"However, even if this cultivation method is only a remnant, it is enough to be rated as a Heaven-tier cultivation method!" The assistant's breathing was rapid, and his tone was somewhat trembling, showing the shock in his heart.

That was the legendary Heaven-tier cultivation method, extremely rare. Even he didn't have the qualifications to cultivate a Heaven-tier cultivation method. Now, the Heaven-tier cultivation method he had dreamed of appeared in front of him and could be learned for free. He felt like he was dreaming! "Holy crap!"

Shu Zheng cursed again in a state of loss, his mouth twitching constantly. At this moment, he was completely in a mess.

"Are you kidding me! This is actually a Heaven-tier cultivation method. Someone actually put a Heaven-tier cultivation method into a novel. Is this author crazy! So generous?"

"Once this novel becomes popular in the whole world and is read by all humans, then the Heaven-tier cultivation method will be rotten on the street!"

"By then, all Gu cultivators in the world will know the Heaven-tier cultivation method. Tsk tsk! What kind of scene is this? Is this the rhythm of the world being in chaos!"

Shu Zheng had a ferocious face, walking back and forth in the room in a frenzy. At this moment, where did this Dean still have his usual majestic appearance? His emotions had completely lost control.

"Heaven-tier cultivation method being rotten on the street is not quite the case." The assistant smiled bitterly and explained on the side: "I have carefully studied the cultivation method named "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique" in the book. It is absolutely true."

"But the requirement for comprehension is simply too high. Especially if you want to practice this cultivation method, you must comprehend the thoughts of the three families of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. How can this be something ordinary people can comprehend just by saying so."

"Up to now, no one in the entire Saint Gu City can learn this cultivation method. Those who have the qualifications to learn this Heaven-tier cultivation method are probably one in ten million."

"Even if "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique" really becomes rotten on the street in the future, there will be very few people who can learn it, and it will absolutely not destroy the balance of this world."

Hearing this, Shu Zheng's expression was not relaxed. Even if "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique" was difficult to learn, it couldn't withstand the massive population base of this world.

With the Heaven-tier cultivation method in front of them, who could resist the temptation of cultivating a Heaven-tier cultivation method?

By then, all people in the world, regardless of whether they had the qualifications or not, would desperately comprehend the thoughts of the three families of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism.

This world never lacked geniuses. In the future, the number of people who could cultivate "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique" would definitely not be small.

This cultivation method was enough to catalyze massive amounts of super powerhouses in the future. I don't know what kind of disturbance it would cause in the end, and whether it would be a blessing or a curse.

The person who created this cultivation method is simply committing a sin!

Shu Zheng sighed, picked up "Journey to the West" placed on the table, and a look of greed that couldn't be hidden appeared in his eyes.

This was the legendary Heaven-tier cultivation method. Ordinary people found it difficult to resist the temptation of learning a Heaven-tier cultivation method, and he also found it difficult to resist the temptation. He wished he could start cultivating "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique" immediately.

"Master, are you also interested in "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique"? But don't you already have a Heaven-tier cultivation method? Does Master want to change the cultivation method?"

Seeing Shu Zheng's expression, the assistant was startled. Could even the Book Book Division Dean not resist the temptation of "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique"?

Shu Zheng took a deep breath, calmed his excited mood, and finally said: "It is true that I already have a Heaven-tier cultivation method, and the strength is not necessarily worse than this cultivation method."

"But my lifespan is less than a hundred years. Longevity is my only pursuit now. For this, I can spare no cost. Once "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique" is completed, it has the heaven-defying ability to make people live forever."

"I intend to try to complete "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique." Although the hope is slim, it concerns longevity. No matter how difficult it is, I intend to try it."

Shu Zheng clenched his fists, and a crazy look was released in his eyes.

Seeing Shu Zheng's appearance, the assistant sighed in his heart. Although the "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique" in the book couldn't make the cultivator live forever because it was incomplete, the upper limit definitely had the ability to make people live forever. It just depended on which heaven-defying prodigy could complete it.

Even Shu Zheng had such an idea, so the other old monsters didn't need to be mentioned. There were absolutely quite a few powerhouses in this world who wanted to try to complete this longevity method. "Journey to the West" would eventually become popular. No one could stop the pace of "Journey to the West" expanding throughout the world.

Shu Zheng narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "The person who created this cultivation method is truly a heaven-defying prodigy. In order to let "Journey to the West" be read by people all over the world, he actually specially created a heaven-defying cultivation method in the novel. He truly took great pains."

"There are thoughts of the three families of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism in the book. If you want to practice "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique," you must first master these three thoughts."

"When "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique" can be learned by everyone, then countless people will enter the Confucian path and the Buddhist path, and these two religions will inevitably be strengthened because of this cultivation method."

"The most exaggerated thing is that he also created a Taoist religion that doesn't exist in this world. Taoist thoughts can only be comprehended from the book."

"If you want to practice this cultivation method, you must comprehend Taoist thoughts. Driven by this cultivation method, this Taoist religion will inevitably emerge as the times require."

"Ten thousand years later, the Taoist religion might become a terrifying existence not inferior to Buddhism, and the person who created this cultivation method will become the founding ancestor of the Taoist religion, revered by countless disciples and grandchildren of the Taoist religion for ten thousand generations."

"It is truly terrifying. A mere cultivation method actually wants to cause such a big disturbance. Do you know which high person wrote this book? This person is truly going to defy Heaven!"

Shu Zheng's expression was grave to the extreme. He looked at the assistant and added.

"I don't know. At first, five people distributed this book for free in the whole city, and then these five people disappeared mysteriously, as if they had evaporated from the human world. I can't find any trace at all. It's no surprise that they used disguise."

"This person didn't take "Journey to the West" to participate in the competition, so my news is very lagging. When I discovered that there was a heaven-defying cultivation method hidden in the novel, it was already impossible to find this person." The assistant sighed.

Shu Zheng nodded, revealing a look of disappointment, and said: "Since I can't learn from this person, it seems that the matter of completing "Great Product Heavenly Immortal Technique" can only rely on myself."

At this time, on the other side.

In Qin Mingyue's boudoir, Qin Mingyue looked at the "Journey to the West" in her hand with a grave expression and couldn't help but click her tongue.

"What a wonderful story, what a superb cultivation method. I didn't expect that in order to let people all over the world read his novel, this brat actually stuffed a Heaven-tier cultivation method into the novel. Truly a heaven-like idea, ruthless enough!"

"I admire you more and more now. Was this divine skill truly created by you? Truly a heaven-defying prodigy!" Qin Mingyue's mouth curled up.

Others couldn't guess who wrote "Journey to the West," but it couldn't be hidden from her. She had just sent the Book Worm to that person, and that person immediately published a book. This wasn't difficult to guess.

"What I lack the least is comprehension. I can easily master the four arts of zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. These three thoughts of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism will definitely not stump me. This cultivation method can be practiced for me."

Qin Mingyue's fingers kept tapping on the table, and a look of incomparable entanglement appeared on her face. She could feel that this Heaven-tier cultivation method was stronger than the cultivation method she practiced, so she already had the impulse to change the cultivation method at this moment.

But this cultivation method was created by a certain brat. Whether there were loopholes remained to be verified, and she couldn't determine whether there would be side effects that she couldn't tolerate after practicing this cultivation method, so she had been hesitating.

Finally, her gaze suddenly became firm, and her tone was determined:

"The upper limit of this cultivation method is extremely high. Even the remnant is already much better than the cultivation method I practice. With my heaven-defying comprehension, once I complete the follow-up, I will obtain the power of longevity."

"This is the power of longevity. If I don't practice it, I will definitely regret it for the rest of my life."

"This cultivation method, I, Qin Mingyue, will practice it!" (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 481 =====
