I've already reached the Nascent Soul stage, and you're saying I didn't time travel?

Chapter 142 The Great Teacher did not respond to your request!

In front of the camera, Qi Xuan carefully explained the key points of practicing the martial arts.

Actually, when he first drew this cultivation technique last night, he didn't think there was anything special about it.

Since he began teaching martial arts techniques, among all the martial arts techniques, only "The True Explanation of Spiritual Clarity and Perception" has made him look at it with a slightly different eye.

Because this martial art allows martial artists to simulate some of the characteristics of cultivators, it can be said that the creator's thinking is truly boundless.

He felt that the others, including the most important one, the Yin-Yang Jade Crane Technique, were all quite ordinary.

However, Qi Xuan also knew that this was because he had already cultivated immortality ahead of time and reached a higher level, which was why he looked down on these very ordinary martial arts.

What is a "very ordinary" martial art to him would be considered a top-tier divine skill by many ordinary people who have never been exposed to cultivation, or by martial artists who lack cultivation techniques.

This can also be seen from the large amount of popularity he has gained.

Moreover, the "Myriad Phenomena Return to Origin Technique" that they obtained this time should be very useful for many grassroots martial artists, as well as large institutions like the state.

"The Return of All Things to the Origin" refers to the return of all things to their origin, transforming all the strength and true energy of all practitioners into the strength or true energy of all things.

The Myriad Manifestations Force and the Myriad Manifestations True Qi possess the characteristic of fusion, thus they can be freely injected into the bodies of fellow cultivators, temporarily and significantly enhancing their strength.

It also comes with corresponding attack and defense moves.

The attack moves can be unleashed by everyone together, making them unpredictable and difficult to defend against.

Defensive moves can distribute the enemy's damage among individuals, reducing its power.

This technique appears to be extremely powerful, but it also has a very fatal weakness.

First of all, this technique requires a lot of coordination. It is best to practice it in a group of people at the same time so that they can develop a tacit understanding with each other and make it less likely to make mistakes in battle.

Secondly, this practice takes a long time to master; it's like water dripping on a stone, and the effects become more and more obvious as you progress.

Finally, each technique has its own upper limit. Generally, when attacking a powerful enemy, a maximum of ten people can participate at the same time. If there are more, the force or true energy will be too great, and the bodies of fellow practitioners may not be able to withstand it. Even if they can withstand it, they may not be able to control it in battle and thus fail to unleash its full power.

The same applies to defense; more people do not necessarily mean less damage.

Because the transfer of force takes time, the damage can be quickly transferred to fewer than ten people. However, if there are more than ten people, the force may not have reached the last person before the person at the front is already about to be knocked out. It is impossible to meet the requirement of simultaneous injury.

Even with so many flaws, this technique is still a pretty good way to deal with unscrupulous experts.

Especially for a country, with such a large territory, it is impossible to have enough experts stationed in every part of it.

However, skilled criminals move extremely fast when committing crimes. To control them in time and prevent them from causing greater damage, it is possible to deploy some low-level martial artists who have practiced the "Myriad Manifestations Return to Origin Technique" in each area, along with other weapons. Even if they cannot defeat the opponent, they can at least hold out until their own experts arrive.

Even some residents of the community or some students of the school can practice the "Return to the Origin of All Things" when they have free time, so that they can make good use of the power of many people and protect themselves as much as possible when they suddenly encounter a crisis.

From the perspective of social stability, the value of this technique is even greater than that of the "Black Jade Technique" and the "Wind-Dispelling Palm."

With Qi Xuan having meticulously broken down the entire "Myriad Phenomena Return to Origin Technique" from beginning to end, the morning's live broadcast came to a close.

As soon as the canopy disappeared, online discussions about the "Myriad Phenomena Return to Origin Technique" immediately became a heated debate:

"Family members! Rejoice! The technique you've been asking for—the one that allows you to overcome the strong with the weak—has finally arrived!!"

"As expected of Qi Shen, he has created such a powerful technique so quickly. This is perfect for me!"

"I hereby declare that the 'Return to Origin Technique' will be a mandatory skill for all low-level martial artists. Who objects?"

"I object! I can't stay a low-level martial artist forever. Sooner or later I'll reach the Innate Realm! I'll become a Grandmaster! I'll become a Great Grandmaster!"

"Don't let yourself get killed by some random innate master while you're trying to break through to the Innate Realm."

"Damn it! Even if a passing innate master really wants to attack you, you're all alone. No matter how strong you are at the 'Myriad Manifestations Return to Origin Technique,' it's useless. This is a combined attack technique, not some blood-burning technique. You can't unleash your full power."

"It's fortunate that it's a combined attack technique, not a blood-burning technique. Otherwise, even if you can burn blood, others can burn blood even more naturally, and they might burn blood for longer and more intensely than you, which would only further widen the gap in strength."

"If that's the case, we can't always travel together as a group, can we? What will we do to go to the toilet? What will we do to sleep?"

"Actually, although there are occasional cases of congenitals causing trouble, it has not reached the point of social chaos. Basically all congenitals who commit crimes in the country have been caught in the end. After all, there are quite a few congenitals in the government, and even more in the private sector. Surrounded by the masses, a few congenital criminals are really not enough to deal with them."

"To deal with innate criminals, one must master the 'Return to Origin Technique' to a certain level, which requires a lot of time and is not easy to do."

This exercise is actually best suited for two types of places: first, schools; second, state coercive institutions.

Students have daily exercise time, which can be used to practice this technique. They also spend their daily lives together, which can cultivate a lot of tacit understanding. If they encounter any criminals, they can at least defend themselves.

As for the state, it's even simpler. Police and soldiers rely on collective strength to deal with criminal suppression crises. The "Return to Origin Technique" will further amplify this collective strength, enabling them to better handle dangerous criminals in the future.

"In my opinion, the most outstanding feature of the 'Return of All Things to the Origin Technique' is that it can provide a deterrent effect, deterring those innate masters who look down on lower-level martial artists because they have practiced the 'Wind-Dispelling Palm', letting them know that even if they are one realm below them, they can still overwhelm them with sheer numbers, making them dare not be too presumptuous in their daily lives."

"Another thing worth mentioning is that if a group practices the 'Return of All Things to the Origin Technique' and combines it with the 'Flying Flower and Leaf Picking Hand' or the 'Wind-Dispelling Palm,' they can exert a considerable advantage even when dealing with the Netherworld Cicada."

"Unfortunately, because of the cicada nests, the ghost cicadas are being killed like crazy. I estimate that by the time we finally master the 'Return of All Things to the Origin Technique,' the ghost cicadas will be almost endangered."

"I can almost see the scene of poaching cicadas."

"Holy crap! This is outrageous!"

……

Class One Garden Party.

Song Manman: "I'm speechless. Just now, our boss called on all employees in the company to practice the 'Return to the Origin Technique' to protect everyone's personal safety and avoid any serious incidents. I'm exhausted every day. I've already spent all my time practicing the 'Flying Flower and Leaf Picking Hand'. How can I have time to practice this 'Return to the Origin Technique'?"

Chen Yutong: "Why is your boss like our boss, making us practice this 'Return to the Origin Technique'? That old bastard even checks our progress regularly. Why don't you check 'Flying Flower and Leaf Picking Hand' instead of this 'Return to the Origin Technique'?"

Song Manman: "Yes, yes, I also think we should check 'The Flying Flowers and Picking Leaves'!"

Xue Cheng: "Wait, why are you all learning the 'Flying Flower and Leaf Picking Hand' technique? Hasn't the cicada plague already been brought under control?"

Song Manman: "What do you know? Even without the cicada plague, the 'Flying Flowers and Plucking Leaves Hand' is so beautiful to watch, with such graceful movements, any girl would want to learn it, okay?"

Xue Cheng: "..."

Song Manman: "By the way, if you're not learning 'Flying Flowers and Plucking Leaves Hands,' what are you learning?"

Xue Cheng: "Of course I'll learn the Black Jade Skill and the Wind-Dispelling Palm."

Song Manman: "The Wind-Dispelling Palm? What good is learning that stuff to you?"

Xue Cheng: "I just advanced to the Innate Realm! [Smug]"

Song Manman: "Damn it!"

Chen Yutong: "Damn it!"

Tang Botao: "Fuck!"

Xue Cheng: "Wait, Chrysanthemum, what's going on? I heard you sold a cicada nest? You've abandoned your brothers and are living a good life now, huh?"

Tang Botao: "Although we did sell a cicada nest, there were many people sharing the money, so even though we split it in seven or eight parts, we didn't have much left. But it's okay, we just found another cicada nest [image]."

Xue Cheng: "You really deserve to die!"

Chen Yutong: "You really deserve to die!"

Song Manman: "You really deserve to die!"

Other classmates: "You deserve to die!"

Upon seeing the chat history in the group, Tang Botao couldn't help but grin.

But at that moment, he received a private message.

Ji Yuwei: "Are you selling this cicada nest that you just dug up?"

Tang Botao was quite surprised: "What, does Goddess Ji want to introduce me to a buyer?"

"Actually, my family is thinking of buying cicada nests, but I don't know what the price is here."

"I'll have to ask my companion about the price."

Tang Botao glanced at Du An, who was idling to the side:
“A classmate of mine is planning to buy this cicada nest and is going to ask about the price. We found this cicada nest together. What are your thoughts on this?”

"Classmate? You and Qi Xuan are classmates?"

"Yes."

“The current market price is around 250 million, so let’s offer him 200 million.”

Tang Botao quickly added:
“A classmate with whom I have a very good relationship, who has helped Qi Xuan a lot in the past.”

"Alright, for Qi Xuan's sake, 150 million is the lowest price I can offer. I've never been this generous to Alfonso." "Thank you, my friend. I'll definitely treat you to a meal when Xuanzi comes down from the sky."

"Remember your promise."

Tang Botao excitedly reported the results to Ji Yuwei.

Ji Yuwei thanked her repeatedly and immediately agreed.

She turned off her phone and sighed softly.

The father and the company have gone mad for the Cicada Elixir. Not content with spending 350 million to acquire one cicada nest, they are now planning to spend a high price to buy a second cicada nest on the market to speed up the research.

She couldn't stop it.

At most, we can only secure a second cicada nest for our family through connections with classmates.

"Hopefully, it will turn out well."

Ji Yuwei sighed and informed Ji Yunshen of the news.

……

South Sudan.

The capital city, Juba.

Administrative Palace.

Blood gushed down the marble steps, and the messy corpses of guards lay scattered in the corridor. Many people wore expressions of bewilderment and disbelief.

A crisp "crack" sound.

With a casual snap of the neck of a congenital cultivator, the newly promoted Grandmaster Kairosha calmly looked at the crowd huddled together in the presidential office.

President Bongo, Defense Minister Chukudum, Chief of Staff Sadit, and many other familiar faces that South Sudanese had only seen on television were all hiding in fear behind a dozen guards.

Even the guards, holding guns, were trembling.

Kairosha scanned the crowd before his gaze slowly settled on President Bongo in the center:

“I come from the Gorom refugee settlement. I have been an orphan since I was three years old. My neighbors took pity on me and helped me out from time to time, which allowed me to barely survive. For a long time, my biggest wish was to be able to eat a wheat cake, but most of the time I was already very grateful to just eat cassava skin.”

“I saw you on television telling reporters that you had done a lot of work to help the refugees in Gorlos, not only by allocating a large amount of funds from the national treasury, but also by trying every means to apply for assistance from the United Nations and the Red Cross.”

“I once thought you were a savior, until I later learned that the relief funds in the national treasury were used to build your villas and yachts abroad, and the supplies that the United Nations painstakingly provided were often robbed by your armed forces, with not even one percent of them ending up in our hands.”

“But it’s okay, I’m all grown up now. I can earn my own money and support myself. I don’t need to rely on outside help anymore, nor do I need to rely on your pity.”

"But why... why do you have to block even this last path for me?"

Kairosha tossed out several steel balls.

The guards who had just rushed in from the corridor were instantly engulfed in a cloud of blood.

Kairosa looked at Bongo, her gaze gradually turning cold:
“I come from the rotten mud of the Sude Swamp, carrying the weight of 117 lives on my shoulders. I have come to demand an explanation from you on behalf of myself and them. Is the cicada's nest really that important to you?”

Bongo's face turned deathly pale, and his lips trembled as he said:

"We don't need the cicada's nest! You can take it anytime!"

"We can even offer compensation! Yes! Compensation! How much money do you want!"

"Just let us go! We'll negotiate the price!!"

Kairosha slowly shook her head:
"Over the years, the entire nation, including myself, has given you many chances. Even on the way here, I tried to persuade myself, but in the end, I still made it this far."

After a pause, he continued:
"However, considering that you also have wives, daughters, and relatives, I will give you one last chance."

“I have met two benefactors in my barren and terrible life. One is Uncle Aksha who saved my life, and the other is the Dharma teacher who guided me in my spiritual practice.”

“By now, Uncle Aksha has long since starved to death, but the Master who spread the Dharma still lives on in the clouds.”

“I can give you one minute to send a request to the great Dharma Master, asking him to let me spare you.”

Kairosa stood silently in place, looking up at the sky with a devout expression.

A minute later, he lowered his eyes, looking slightly disappointed.
"It seems that the great teacher has not responded to your request."

"The fact that my late master ignored you proves that I was right!"

"No need for words, let's face our predetermined fate!"

Kairosha rushed forward, gunshots rang out, screams filled the air, and the presidential office was instantly covered in blood.

On that day, Grandmaster Kairosa killed 27 high-ranking government officials, including South Sudanese President Bongo.

The news sent shockwaves around the world!
……

In the afternoon, as soon as the live stream started, countless comments flooded in like a waterfall:
"Have we finally come to this?"

"Ever since Qi Shen started teaching martial arts, I guessed this kind of thing would happen, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly! I didn't expect it to come so fiercely!"

"One man single-handedly destroyed the entire administrative palace, and countless guards perished under the weight of those tiny steel balls. The power of a Grandmaster is truly terrifying!"

"It seems that from now on, all government officials will have to be accompanied by master-level bodyguards, otherwise who can sleep at night?"

"Why can't you sleep? If you haven't done anything wrong, why would you be afraid of a grandmaster risking his life to kill you?"

"What a joke! Can this be determined by whether or not mistakes have been made? Many political matters cannot be judged by simple right or wrong. Much key information and secret intelligence only circulates among the top levels, and the common people have no idea about it. If someone with ulterior motives stirs up trouble, they can easily be led astray! Do you really think the Arab Spring won't happen again?!"

"And don't forget that some candidates can hire masters to kill their political opponents. If this is left unchecked, similar incidents to the assassination of 38 candidates in the Mexican presidential election will continue to occur."

"This has revealed a bloody reality to us: the destructive power of Grandmasters is too great. If no policies are introduced to curb it, the whole world will fall into complete chaos!"

"Grandmasters are so powerful, how can you possibly suppress them? Besides, even if you could suppress a Grandmaster, so what? What if a Land Immortal emerges later? Do you still plan to suppress them? With nuclear bombs? By building government agencies on nuclear missile silos?"

"My biggest concern is that Kerossa's actions may lead to a large number of imitators, and a large number of politicians may be killed in the next two days, which could affect the policies for managing the warriors."

"Hmph! Martial arts are so widely spread that everyone knows how to cultivate them. I don't believe anyone would dare to defy the trend!"

"In the face of the historical wheels propelled by Qi Shen, all conservatives, rebels, and resisters will be utterly crushed!"

"This world will ultimately be in the hands of us martial artists!!"

……

Qi Xuan shut down the live stream, looking extremely depressed, showing none of the high spirits of someone who drives the wheels of history.

In just over an hour, he still couldn't find any clues related to Zhao Laosan.

"This can't go on, let's try our luck with the lottery first."

"Maybe I can draw something that can break the deadlock."

Qi Xuan took a deep breath, opened the lottery page, and saw 295B prominently displayed in the upper right corner.

But even if it's 201B, it's okay, because you only need 20 more pulls to get the new Bronze pool pity.

"Let me see what good stuff I can get this time."

Ten more shots.

Amidst the tinkling music, all ten orbs of light fell down.

The Four Realms and the Six Spirits.

In addition to some spiritual materials, herbs, and pills, there was also a Lightness Talisman and a brand new Earth-Shaking Talisman.

The Earthshaking Talisman is an extremely powerful talisman. Multiple Earthshaking Talismans stacked together can even be used to destroy formations.

Ten more draws.

Among the Three Realms and Seven Spirits, there is one item of the Second Rank.

Qi Xuan couldn't wait to open the second item.

At this moment, he only hoped that this brand-new safety net could help him break out of his current predicament.

But when the light completely dissipated, what appeared before him was an unexpected spiritual object.

"This is... Tears of a Hundred Flowers?!"
