Chapter 68: A Joint Proposal in the Group
Zhushan Tribe, inside the Stone Palace.
Lu Yun was still continuing to chat in the group.
Just a moment ago, everyone had been talking all at once, already voicing many of their speculations and stating what he might encounter while preaching to the Human Race next.
Most people did not suggest that Lu Yun continue preaching to the Human Race.
At least under the circumstances where Lu Yun's current strength was insufficient, continuing to preach would only invite many dangers.
For example, that Saint of the Ren Sect, Laozi, would very likely take action against him directly.
Even if Lu Yun wanted to develop his own prestige among the Human Race, he could preach in secret; there was no need to make it so widely known.
But there were also people who held different opinions on this matter.
For example, Qiu Wanli.
Qiu Wanli: "On the contrary, I feel that making a big deal out of it is better! It would be best to let that Nuwa also know about this matter; that way, even if Laozi is unhappy in his heart, he definitely won't take action!"
Lin Chen: "Indeed, if Nuwa in this period also knew about this, she would inevitably protect Lu Yun! But how could Lu Yun let Nuwa know?"
Qiu Wanli: "Didn't he specifically leave two days for the Human Race to prepare? Perhaps the Human Race has already reported it to Nuwa!"
Lin Chen: "But what if it doesn't go as smoothly as you imagine? Don't forget, he still has the Heavenly Condemnation Halo on him right now; anything could happen!"
Xiao Ling'er: "I support the view of the big boss Lin Chen!"
Liu Chongxiao: "I, on the other hand, feel that what the big boss Qiu said is also not wrong!"
Seeing the two of them start to argue, the others also joined in the commotion, and Lu Yun fell into deep thought.
He indeed felt a trace of hesitation regarding the matter of preaching because of everyone's discussion.
But he soon reaffirmed his own idea.
Lu Yun: "Everyone, stop arguing. I feel there is no longer any need to argue, because the news has already been released. No matter what, I must still preach among the Human Race; otherwise, wouldn't my prestige be swept away? Where would I have the opportunity to become a leader of the Human Race in the future?"
Once these words were spoken, the group members who had been arguing all fell silent at once.
Lu Yun: "As things stand, the only thing I can do is find a way to make this preaching achieve the effect I want, without making that Taiqing Saint too anxious! I wonder if you all have any suggestions for me?"
Finally having steered the topic back, Lu Yun waited full of anticipation for the suggestions from everyone in the group.
Sure enough, the people in the group no longer continued to dwell on whether or not to preach, but instead began to discuss how to preach in order to reduce risks or reap more benefits.
Ling Yan: "Since it has been decided to preach, and considering that we should make the risks we mentioned earlier as unlikely to happen as possible, my suggestion is to continue teaching the Martial Dao!"
Chen Hai: "Teaching the Martial Dao? Won't the growth ceiling be too low?"
Liu Chongxiao: "To say that only shows that you have too little experience and your understanding of the Martial Dao is too shallow!"
Qiu Wanli: "Martial Dao achievements are low? Ever heard of Entering Dao through Martial Arts?"
Chu Xiong: "Whether Martial Dao achievements are high or low depends entirely on individual talent and the world one is in. In a low-level world, Xingyi Fist is nothing more than for strengthening the body, but what the effect is in the Great Desolation, Lu Yun should have seen it too!"
"Ding! Received suggestion: Continue teaching the Martial Dao to the Primordial Human Race! Reward: One Rare Treasure Chest!"
The task was finally triggered! Lu Yun couldn't help but feel a surge of joy in his heart, and then he hurriedly continued to guide the topic in the group.
Lu Yun: "Why choose the Martial Dao? Are there any other benefits?"
Ling Yan: "Because teaching the Martial Dao might not be easy in other worlds, but given the physique of the Primordial Human Race, the vast majority of people can practice it, which best meets the current needs of the Human Race!"
Yan Lingwei: "I also support teaching the Martial Dao! Because just like the initial impression many people had, when first practicing the Martial Dao, it would be good if most of the Human Race could reach Refining Spirit into Void. This will create an illusion for that Laozi that the Dao technique you are teaching is not strong and has little impact on him!"
Xiao Ling'er: "This is a good idea! In this way, Lu Yun completes the preaching and also paralyzes the enemy, killing two birds with one stone!"
Lin Chen: "Also, the Martial Dao is developed entirely based on the human body and has infinite potential. Once you successfully spread the seeds of the Martial Dao, the Human Race can develop many martial arts themselves, allowing the Martial Dao to be constantly enriched!"
Qiu Wanli: "This is indeed a good idea! Thinking about it carefully, this Martial Dao is definitely a brand-new method of cultivation in the Great Desolation. If you pass it down, it will inevitably attract Heavenly Dao Merit once again! The more Heavenly Dao Merit you obtain now, the fewer people in the Great Desolation will dare to touch you!"
Jiang Ye: "What I thought of is that the Martial Dao was created by observing beasts from the very beginning. When you teach the Martial Dao, you can completely claim to the outside world that you realized it by observing Demons! Conversely, if you taught some kind of magic or the like, it would be harder to explain the source!"
Everyone talked all at once, speaking of the benefits of Lu Yun choosing to teach the Martial Dao at this time.
In the end, the majority of people actually supported Lu Yun teaching the Martial Dao now.
Lu Yun was also thoroughly convinced by them. This time it was not just for the reward, but because the Martial Dao was indeed a good choice.
But he was naturally not satisfied with just triggering a rare-level task.
And so—
Lu Yun: "Thank you all for your suggestions! Then, what specific Martial Dao should I teach the Human Race?"
He had originally thought that this sentence of his would likely lead everyone to compete in recommending various martial arts.
He did not expect that the reaction of the crowd would be nothing like that.
Ling Yan: "Although the world I am in has the Martial Dao, its development is not very good, so I don't have any recommendations."
Lin Chen: "Regarding this point, we can let Qiu talk about it properly @Qiu Wanli!"
Xiao Ling'er: "Eh, why does the big boss Lin Chen approve of the big boss Qiu so much this time?"
Lin Chen: "Because this guy is someone who achieved Entering Dao through Martial Arts! There are so many members in the group, and as far as I know, he is the one with the highest achievements in this aspect! Of course, there might be some Martial Dao big bosses I don't know about, but basically, they don't show up anymore."
Lu Yun did not expect that Qiu Wanli had actually achieved Entering Dao through Martial Arts; he had always thought the other party was a great demon in the world of immortal cultivation.
However, thinking about it carefully, with his arrogant and ambitious personality, Entering Dao through Martial Arts might really be the path most suitable for him!
Qiu Wanli: "Hehe! It's rare for old Lin to approve of me so much! Since that's the case, then I'll speak!"
Qiu Wanli: "@Lu Yun, there are quite a few martial arts I uploaded in the Points Mall, and there are also many uploaded by others! But right now, there aren't actually many that are suitable for you to teach to the Primordial Human Race!"
Qiu Wanli: "First of all, in my understanding, primary martial arts are humans imitating various beasts to initially achieve the effect of strengthening the body while also being able to kill enemies. Intermediate martial arts are those that break away from the animal form to reach the level of 'Spirit'. Higher-level martial arts start to break through toward the level of 'Intent', which is what the Daoist sects call Refining Spirit into Void! Finally, there is Entering Dao through Martial Arts, reaching the effect of being able to undergo Tribulation Transcendence Becoming Immortal!"
Qiu Wanli: "You don't need to consider primary martial arts. After you pass down the Martial Dao, the Human Race will spontaneously think in this direction. It shouldn't take long before they create many primary martial arts imitating various Demons on their own!"
Qiu Wanli: "For intermediate martial arts, you have already passed down 'Xingyi Fist' in the Great Desolation. This belongs to the intermediate level of the Martial Dao and is indeed very suitable for the Human Race. If you want to continue preaching, you can use this as a foundation and teach some other fist techniques of the same level, such as 'Taiji Fist'. If you teach these two, perhaps Laozi will even suspect whether you are his disciple?"
"Ding! Received suggestion: Teach the Human Race 'Taiji Fist'! Reward: One Rare Treasure Chest!"
Lu Yun was somewhat stunned; he had not expected that merely teaching an intermediate martial art could actually net him a Rare Treasure Chest. However, thinking about it, Taiji was Laozi's signature; he was not a disciple of the Ren Sect, yet he had created a Fist Technique based on Taiji, leading people to mistake him for a Ren Sect disciple. This maneuver would likely leave even Laozi very bewildered! But after the bewilderment, he would probably also develop a stronger intent to kill him!
Of course, it was impossible for Lu Yun to give up on this mission; at worst, he would just complete it later when he found a suitable opportunity!
Qiu Wanli: "However, simply passing down the 'Taiji Fist' is not enough to earn you a reward from the Primordial Heavenly Dao! If you want to obtain Heavenly Dao Merit, you must perfect the Dao of Martial Arts, which means spreading advanced martial arts! In this regard, I recommend the 'Sacred Heart Art' and the 'Xuanwu True Art'. One of these can grant a person longevity, while the other is incomparably fierce and powerful, perfectly suited for the current Acquired Human race of the Great Desolation. I imagine it could allow many of them to reach the Refining Spirit into Void stage."
"Ding! Suggestion received: Teach the Human Race the 'Sacred Heart Art' and the 'Xuanwu True Art'! Reward: One Rare Treasure Chest!"
Lu Yun was slightly taken aback.
Weren't these two martial arts from "Wind and Cloud"? Could it be that someone in the Chat Group had actually transmigrated into the "Wind and Cloud" world and even uploaded the corresponding martial arts? He hurriedly entered the Points Mall to search.
It was just as he thought!
In the Points Mall, not only were there the "Sacred Heart Art" and "Xuanwu True Art" techniques, but there were also martial arts from the "Wind and Cloud" world such as "Three Parts Returning to Origin Qi", "Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin", "Five Thunders Transforming Extreme Hand", and "Shengling Sword Art"!
The person who uploaded these items was named Jia Tianyun! This was a name Lu Yun had never seen before; they had never surfaced in the Chat Group and were likely some ancient-level member.
The two techniques, "Sacred Heart Art" and "Xuanwu True Art", were not priced very high, costing only 100,000 points each.
Lu Yun did not even hesitate and bought them directly.
Incidentally, he also bought the "Five Thunders Transforming Extreme Hand".
Because he discovered that this "Five Thunders Transforming Extreme Hand" could perfectly complement the "Five Elements Thunder Method" he had obtained.
The price of the "Five Thunders Transforming Extreme Hand" was as high as 200,000 points because it was also the most destructive martial art in the "Wind and Cloud" series; whether it was divine weapons or profound internal energy, nothing could withstand a single blow from it.
After buying it, Lu Yun discovered that once this technique was integrated with the "Five Elements Thunder Method", it perfectly realized his previous idea of using the Thunder Origin Talisman to execute the "Five Elements Thunder Method".
Just for this point alone, he felt that the 200,000 points were well spent!
After all, for Lu Yun, that was just a matter of twenty bamboo stalks!
Incidentally, Lu Yun also searched for "Taiji Fist", preparing to buy it as well.
As a result, he was surprised to find that there was not just one "Taiji Fist" product, but many products all called "Taiji Fist", yet their prices differed vastly.
The cheapest "Taiji Fist" only required 200 points, while the most expensive one actually cost 200,000 points.
This was truly somewhat unexpected for him, but upon second thought, he suddenly understood.
It stood to reason that these must come from different worlds and different versions of "Taiji Fist". And according to the Points Mall's appraisal, these different versions of "Taiji Fist" certainly had differences in value.
The key factor for the difference should be related to their respective cultivation limits and power.
In this way, it was simple for him to make a purchase; since he still had plenty of points on hand, he directly bought the version with the highest price! (End of chapter)
