Chapter 3066 Inside and Outside the Siege
Many people sat on the ground, with Ren Yisheng, Montesbarton, and Naggs taking turns lecturing.

The text, images, and examples are used to explain the content, while Chimon Hagrid uses a sharp tool to carve on several black stones to prevent inadequate understanding or forgetting.

"Damn it, they all have methods, but I'm the only one who just had to tough it out!"

The image of Chimmon Hagrid, which he had painstakingly crafted, was difficult to express in words.

If Montespatton and the others had a viable path, it was through sheer willpower and the rescue by Zhang Xuezhou and others that he escaped from the brink of death before finally gaining control.

His method of enduring hardship is not something that ordinary people can replicate, and it is far less easy than what others find.

Thinking of Chang Kongluo, who also chose the same method of brewing, Qimeng Haige felt that the other party had fallen into a trap. If Chang Kongluo had been able to wait until today, his situation might have been different.

"Imprinting divine marks and nurturing methods are not as effective as the Spirit Enhancement Technique!"

Everyone had their own thoughts, but Zhang Xuezhou kept comparing the information provided by Montesbaton and Naggs.

The branding of a divine mark is somewhat similar to a belief system, but this belief system is placed within oneself.

Just as ordinary people encourage themselves to be brave, Nagog's mark of divine intervention is the same.

Simple and brief encouragement can generate courage, but years of systematic training and perseverance will produce something different.

Nagoth's spiritual power eventually channeled the attached flames, resulting in an effect similar to the Heart Sutra, only much weaker.

The method of nurturing involves entrusting one's spirit to a divine weapon. The prerequisite for practicing the method of nurturing is to find an object suitable for one's entire life so that one can entrust one's spirit to it for a long time. Once the object is replaced or damaged, all previous efforts will be wasted or the spiritual trauma will be difficult to repair.

These are two conditional methods of cultivating spiritual power. Although their upper limits are equally high, Zhang Xuezhou felt that the Spiritual Enhancement Chapter was better for strengthening one's foundation and cultivating one's vital energy.

"You use people as tools, you nurture people..."

Zhang Xuezhou thought the Spirit Enhancement chapter was the best, while Montespatton believed that they were just different in form. Compared to divine weapons that could be passed down, humans were too fragile, and after death, everything was gone, while divine weapons could continue to exist.

For example, his Ruyi Cudgel is passed down from generation to generation, and has continued to this day. It even protects his generation and guides him forward, helping him to enter the ninth sequence.

In Montesbatton's mind, the method of nurturing is worse than the method of strengthening the mind.

Nagos kept observing them. There was nothing to say about his inferior strength, but Nagos didn't think the divine mark was bad. As long as he erased the past of the Flame God Stone and then entrusted it to the mark, he could achieve immortality, thus avoiding accidental death and gaining longevity.

This is the essence of the cultivation system in the world he previously lived in, and Nagos felt that his method had the most far-reaching development.

Everyone had their own thoughts, while Chang Kongyinghao and the others kept checking against the stone wall.

No one can guarantee that practicing these methods will necessarily lead to mastery, but this is a training method that Montespatton and others have been promoting in accordance with the rules, outside of gene combat techniques.

If one lacks the foundation of spiritual power like Zhou Rihui, learning this kind of content would undoubtedly be very difficult, but many people have spent years cultivating spiritual enhancement techniques at the Twilight Mansion.

Everyone has their own comparisons and obviously their own choices.

For example, Chang Kong Yinghao and Chang Kong Yinglian tend to use the nurturing method. They have been injured many times over the years, but their alloy swords have never been damaged. Even if the blades become dull, they only need to be maintained and repaired by a machine, which will make the swords look brand new.

Zhen Wudi and Bi Dazhi, on the other hand, were more conservative and chose to continue with the mental enhancement chapter.

Li Qi, on the other hand, had his eye on the Divine Mark. When his fighting skills were unleashed, he didn't use just one sword, but could unleash eight swords simultaneously for a fatal strike.

Cultivating the Nagoth brand does not necessarily lead to a fiery explosion, and cultivating the Montesbatton nurturing method does not necessarily lead to control over metal; rather, the development varies from person to person.

Although people need to learn to control their pace in order to seek freedom, they will undoubtedly seek a practice method that suits them in order to achieve their goals.

"I don't want to keep eating grass, I want to get out of here, what should I do?"

Zhou Rihui looked at everyone with a somewhat bewildered expression. The world had changed drastically, and so had everyone else.

Zhou Rihui remembered that the genetic sequence education he received did not require him to practice these things. Only a handful of people in Xijing City were involved in the practice of mental combat techniques.

In the blink of an eye, everyone else had a mental foundation, but he truly had to start from scratch.

The poisonous grass in his mouth was very bitter, but just thinking that everyone else had a chance to get out while he could only stay here and eat grass, Zhou Rihui felt so bitter that he couldn't feel anything anymore.

But if he were to learn cultivation, how could he possibly reach the level of these older cultivators in such a short time?

He had previously harbored a sliver of hope, believing his survival skills to be second to none, far superior to those of higher ranks. This sudden fall behind left Zhou Rihui somewhat bewildered.

"Zhouzi, what should I do?"

Zhou Rihui pondered the problem repeatedly but could not find a solution, so he could only seek advice.

"Going out isn't necessarily better, and staying in isn't necessarily worse," Zhang Xuezhou said, pursing his lips. "Just follow the steps and reach the seventh sequence!"

“My father used up too much of the beast extract, and my aptitude is not as good as his. The beast extract at home is not enough, so it will be difficult for me to reach the seventh sequence,” Zhou Rihui said. “If you want my sister to hunt Xuan Turtle-type beasts, she doesn’t have that kind of ability!”

"Don't worry, I'll tell her what you need next time I go out, and she'll try her best to find a solution!"

"My sister is alright at research, but I think she'd have a real headache doing this kind of work!"

Zhang Xuezhou and Zhou Rihui exchanged a few words.

He was also helpless regarding Zhou Rihui's situation, since he himself was also caught up in the confusion of the genetic sequence and had no ability to solve problems related to cultivation.

The resources of ferocious beasts have already been exchanged among the high-level officials of various countries, making it impossible to easily obtain such resources again.

Everything is out in the open right now; whether or not one can break through the predicament depends on their individual abilities.

"If I'm not mistaken, your genes are most likely weak genes. We'll have your sister participate in weak gene research. If the weak gene catalyst can be adapted, your need for the beast extract that leads to the seventh sequence should be greatly reduced!"

"How could I possibly have weak genes? My genes..."

"You can pass on the message and ask Tianhao to verify whether the catalyst has worked!"

Strong and weak are relative comparisons. If compared to Qin Meng's Xuan Turtle, the genes of Zhou Rihui and others are ridiculously strong, but if compared to Xuan Ming, these genes are pitifully weak.

Given the Zhou family's seemingly limitless resources, Zhang Xuezhou did have some doubts.

“Luo Burang also has weak genes. He is currently researching related catalysts and is just one step away from success,” Zhang Xuezhou comforted him. “Your future is very promising!”

"I am also a person with a future!"

Zhang Xuezhou's words dispelled Zhou Rihui's dejection and made him much more alert.

It must be said that people inside and outside the besieged city have different thoughts.

Those trapped here longed to end their miserable days and leave, while the Emperor, Zhang Manqian, Huang, and others outside were thinking of sneaking in to enjoy the blessings of heaven and earth.

Zhang Xuezhou glanced at the visual device he was carrying, then looked at the lake area formed by the Soul-Locking Pillar.

The fact that the emperor was so eager to come here suggests that the benefits of this region likely exceeded his expectations.

But where the benefits lie is something Zhang Xuezhou needs to uncover.
