Primordial Era: I, Emperor Donghua, establish the Immortal Court

Chapter 178 Harboring Hidden Intentions

As time went on, Luo Ji's body underwent increasingly significant changes.

Physically speaking, she has become younger to a visible degree.

Logically speaking, he should be approaching forty by now.

But he looked exactly like a young person, with incredibly tender skin.

Similarly, the children taught by Luo Ji became increasingly powerful, far surpassing their peers by many times.

Even adults are no match for these children when it comes to strength alone.

Soon, the changes in Luo Ji and the children came to the attention of Hines and others.

They found Luo Ji immediately.

"Luo, we're sorry, we're ashamed of the moment we doubted you."

"I never imagined that what you did would actually work; it's unbelievable."

"However, after the United Nations meeting, we felt that although these children are very powerful, their numbers are not enough to face the terrifying Trisolarans."

"Therefore, we earnestly request that you teach us some more."

"And we will try our best to meet your requirements."

On the other end of the phone, Hines said with some shame.

"no."

Luo Ji refused without hesitation.

Why?

"Can't we add a few more? This shouldn't be too difficult for you, Luo, right?"

Hines was puzzled.

"No, no, no, forget it, no need to say more. Trust me, okay, my friend?" Luo Ji replied, leaving no room for negotiation.

"All right."

Hines nodded and hung up the phone.

Looking at the dimming projection screen in front of him, Luo Ji shrugged helplessly.

It's not that he doesn't want to teach more.

After all, being able to teach more people means having a better chance of dealing with the Trisolarans in the future.

However, there's a problem: the source Ye Hei provided isn't enough.

Therefore, he had no choice but to refuse decisively.

If we teach any more, it will only lead to one result.

That is, although there are many people, the quality is very poor.

This is clearly not acceptable.

Now, what he needs to do most is to concentrate his efforts on doing great things.

The UN meeting is still ongoing.

Hines closed the video chat and shook his head.

"Has Luo still not agreed?"

At the square table, a middle-aged man in a suit and tie spoke, sighing with some regret.

He is the current head of the United Nations.

"Yes, although I don't know why, Luo refused very decisively, so it seems there really is a hidden reason. Now it seems that it will be difficult to get Luo to teach more students."

"Of course, I will do my best, after all, this is for the sake of the Earth."

Hines said, his heart pounding.

As is widely known, he was previously a member of the "escapism" movement, and even created the "Steel Seal Clan," a human race that escapists.

But now, after witnessing Luo Ji's miraculous transformation, he couldn't help but feel hope for the future.

"Well, there's no rush. If possible, it would be best to get Luo to hand over this miraculous method, all for the sake of Earth."

The leader nodded, a strange light flashing in his eyes.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Luo Ji spent all his days in his room, silently cultivating immortality through Taoist scriptures.

Suddenly, there was a rapid knocking on the door!

"Luo Ji, Luo Ji, something terrible has happened!"

Shi Qiang's voice sent a jolt through Luo Ji.

"What's wrong?"

Luo Ji quickly took a step and opened the door.

Shi Qiang was seen squatting in front of the door, panting, his face flushed.

"I'll show you something."

Soon, Shi Qiang forgot about being tired and hurriedly raised his hand, projecting several images onto his wristwatch.

"Mr. Hines, has the savior Luo Ji... truly mastered the art of cultivation?"

In the video, a reporter is speaking, and opposite her is Hines.

"Yes, although Mr. Luo Ji was reluctant to reveal it, considering that humanity is now at a critical juncture of life and death, I have decided to make it public."

Hines nodded and flicked his elbow.

Soon, several images appeared.

"This... is what Mr. Luo Ji looked like before he started cultivating immortality techniques. There's nothing strange about it."

"Next, please look at this picture... This is what Mr. Luo Ji looks like after practicing the cultivation method. You can clearly see that his muscle lines have become very even, and even his facial age has been reduced by more than ten years, as if he has returned to his youth."

"And these are the children taught by Mr. Luo Ji. As you can see, although they are young, they all possess the strength to kill a bear."

Pointing to the several photos projected into the air, Hines continued to explain.

All of Luo Ji's amazing abilities were revealed to everyone.

The video then ended.

"No way?"

After watching the entire video, Luo Ji's lips twitched.

"Doesn't that mean the whole world now knows I have cultivation techniques?"

Luo Ji asked Shi Qiang, sounding exasperated.

"Otherwise, why do you think I'm in such a hurry?"

"Let me tell you, we're in big trouble. For some reason, our training location has been leaked, and now a huge number of people are frantically rushing up the mountain!"

"We need to think of something quickly!"

Shi Qiang said, wiping away sweat.

"Are they here?"

After listening to Shi Qiang's words, Luo Ji looked up and gazed into the distance.

His eyes shone brightly, and through the layers of buildings, he saw a large, dark mass of people heading up the mountain in the distance.

Even the entire mountain was swaying slightly.

"Walk."

The next moment, Luo Ji's eyes narrowed, and he grabbed Shi Qiang's hand and disappeared from the spot.

Soon, he appeared in front of the large crowd.

"It's Luo Ji! Look, he's appeared!"

Just as Luo Ji was about to speak, the crowd opposite him spotted him and shouted loudly.

"Luo Ji, please, pass on your cultivation techniques to us! We want to cultivate too, and we want to fight the Trisolarans!"

A young man knelt on the ground and spoke in a trembling voice.

"Yes, Luo Ji, Earth is facing a great calamity. Don't be selfish, quickly pass on the cultivation technique."

An elderly man with graying temples, holding a cane, spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Logic."

"Logic."

Immediately afterwards, one by one, people knelt down, crying and begging for Luo Ji's Taoist scriptures.

There were all sorts of people among them, each with their own ulterior motives.

Perhaps some people do come for the Earth, but others have grandiose motives, their real purpose being things like rejuvenation.

"no."

Looking at the myriad expressions of humanity, Luo Ji shook his head without hesitation and said...

"You may leave."

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Ji waved his hand.

A flash of golden light appeared, and all of them vanished before Luo Ji's eyes, returning to the foot of the mountain...

After a period of training, Luo Ji's strength has increased significantly.

The combination of visualization techniques and Taoist scriptures allowed his strength to improve rapidly.

Although I haven't been in the group for long, my skills are definitely much stronger than those of the original members.
