I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 224: Technology and Transcendence
Qingcheng Mountain.

The three of them sat opposite each other.

Li Qingxuan was explaining some basic issues of cultivation to Qingyue.

"The two most important points in this practice are..."

"One is the source of energy, and the other is the technique."

"Let's talk about source energy first."

He first spent a few minutes roughly explaining the effects of source energy, and then continued:

"But for those of us who have just started practicing, the source energy contained in a source crystal is too much."

"With this level of source energy concentration, a problem will arise when we practice the technique to refine it."

"That is, the speed of tempering is extremely fast."

Qingyue frowned.

"Master, isn't it a good thing to cultivate quickly?"

"Haha, this is certainly a good thing."

Li Qingxuan smiled and nodded.

"But it also depends on whether you can bear it."

"It's like you normally run at one meter per second, but in this environment you're forced to run twice as fast."

"You can certainly reach the finish line faster, but the pressure you're under will also increase exponentially."

"And after you run that distance, it takes longer to recover."

"That way, the time between your next run will be longer."

“Practice is the process of repeating running over and over again.”

"When ordinary people like us first start practicing, we shouldn't increase the difficulty right away, but should proceed step by step."

"Because, if you can bear it, it's fine. If you can't, then there's only one outcome."

At the end of his speech, Li Qingxuan's expression became much more serious.

He must first clarify the risks involved in the practice.

Qingyue understood what Li Qingxuan wanted to express, and she was mentally prepared for it.

Now that she has made her choice, she will not regret it.

"I understand, Taoist Priest. Then how can we solve the problem of excessive concentration of source energy? Should we have several people practice at the same time to disperse the source energy?"

Li Qingxuan nodded.

"Yes, in my estimation, it would be best if 3-5 people practiced on one source crystal at the same time. That way, the source energy concentration would be neither too much nor too little."

"I just mentioned the situation where the source energy concentration is too high."

"On the other hand, if it's too little, then it might not be possible to complete a round of tempering, and it won't have much effect on improving your mental strength."

"So, my suggestion is that as your cultivation realm improves, the concentration of source energy during cultivation should also be gradually increased."

"This not only speeds up cultivation, but also improves mental strength."

"After all, the cultivation in the Body Tempering Realm is to lay the foundation for awakening. If the mental strength is insufficient, the success rate of awakening will be extremely low."

Qingyue listened very carefully. As long as she was determined to do something, she would always put 100% of her energy into it.

This was how intangible cultural heritage was passed down in the past, how cooking was done, and how cultivation is done now.

"After talking about source energy, let's talk about the exercises."

"You must be proficient in the exercises before practicing them, to ensure that there are no mistakes during practice."

Li Qingxuan did not hide anything and told everything he knew.

"So, the most important thing for you now is to improve your proficiency in the technique."

"I understand. Thank you, Taoist Priest!"

It can be said that he is a very good teacher.

At least Xia Yuan thought that he was not as good as Li Qingxuan in this respect.

There is nothing wrong with admitting this. If he didn't have a panel, there would be no way he could compare with Li Qingxuan.

"Dean, two young men came outside and said they knew you!"

Just as they finished talking about cultivation, a voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"What are their names?"

"One is called Hua Changfeng, the other is Gu Yunhai. They said you probably don't know their names, but you'll know them after you see them!"

"How did they find this place?"

Qingyue was obviously a little surprised when she heard these two names. Could it be that they were looking for her?
But I didn’t tell anyone where I was!

"Are these two people friends of Master Qingyue?"

"They're not really friends, just acquaintances. You know them too, Taoist Priest. They're the two who went into the mountains with us."

Qingyue gave a brief description and Li Qingxuan remembered it.

"These two people shouldn't be looking for you, otherwise they wouldn't say such words."

"They probably have ideas about cultivation, or they want to ask the old Taoist about your location."

This is actually not difficult to guess. Apart from these two reasons, there is no other reason.

"Mr. Qingyue, do you want to meet these two people?"

He left the choice to Qingyue.

Qingyue thought for a moment and nodded.

Speaking of which, these two people also helped me a little later.

Now that you’re here, let’s meet him!

outside the house.

"Crazy, why do I feel like this Taoist Priest Li won't see us?"

Gu Yunhai felt that he and the other party had only met once and had never even spoken to each other, so it was unlikely that the other party would agree just because of these two sentences.

"It's okay. If we can't meet anyone, we'll find other ways. At worst, we can just donate money."

Hua Changfeng wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was not worried about it.

If you just want to meet people, it’s actually not difficult.

He could even use Qingyue's name, so that he would definitely be able to meet the person, but he didn't do that.

"You two, the dean has agreed to see you. Follow me!"

Just as the two were waiting anxiously, the young Taoist priest who had just gone to deliver the message finally came back.

The two looked at each other, both a little surprised.

They didn't expect that the other party would be willing to see them just with just a few words.

Follow the young Taoist priest all the way to the yard.

The moment they saw the man clearly, they finally understood why the other party agreed so simply!
It turns out that Qingyue is here.

Qingyue's appearance here can be said to be unexpected but also reasonable.

After what happened yesterday, she definitely couldn't stay in that town anymore.

The best choice is to follow the immortal.

Secondly, Qingcheng Mountain is indeed a good choice.

"What are you doing here?"

Seeing the two of them, Qingyue asked first.

"Um. We came here to ask about your previous cooperation."

Gu Yunhai smiled awkwardly. He was not as shameless as Hua Changfeng, and it was impossible for him to directly say that he wanted to know about cultivating immortals.

Their relationship is far from reaching this point.

Hua Changfeng was also very clear that if he directly stated his ultimate goal now, it might cause the other party to be disgusted.

The correct way to get along with others is to gradually deepen the relationship through cooperation.

"I'm sorry, regarding the cooperation, I don't have this idea for the time being, and I won't be shooting videos in the short term!"

Qingyue could actually see that the real purpose of these two people coming here was definitely not this.

If we come to Qingcheng Mountain just for this kind of thing, it would obviously be impossible.

"I know you want to know the secrets of cultivating immortals, but I can't make a decision on this matter. It's useless for you to come to me."

In the end, Qingyue chose to confront the issue directly.

She had a good impression of the two men, so she didn't want to beat around the bush.

"Even if I tell you everything, you still won't be able to practice."

Hearing this, they both fell silent.

They are all smart people and can easily understand the meaning of this sentence.

Regardless of whether this last sentence is true or false, it is extremely rare for the other party to say such words.

If the two of them continue to get entangled, they will only end up in trouble! "We understand!"

"If you want to cooperate, you can always find me."

Hua Changfeng nodded.

He took a deep breath and added.

"If there's a chance for us to learn the secrets of cultivating immortality later, I hope you'll consider us. You can propose any conditions."

Although he knew there was no hope now, he still didn't want to give up and at least plant a seed of hope.

And saying this will not cause the other party to be offended.

Faced with this last question, Qingyue did not give an answer.

This kind of thing is not something she can decide.

Although her relationship with Xia Yuan is okay, there is a limit to what she should do. He will never act on his own in this matter.

"hug"

However, before she could say anything, another voice suddenly rang out.

"So, what conditions do you think are worthy of the secret of cultivating immortals?"

Along with this sound, there was a series of footsteps getting closer and closer.

A moment later, a young man appeared in front of everyone.

"Fairy!"

Hua Changfeng had originally given up hope, but he did not expect to suddenly see the immortal in person at this time.

Especially the last sentence, which rekindled his hope.

"I"

Hua Changfeng thought for a moment and prepared to state his conditions.

But for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

money?
To an immortal, it's probably like a blank sheet of paper.

People?

This is even less worth mentioning.

As a graduate of Kyoto University, he did know many talented people, but they were just ordinary people.

Not to mention the others!
It's completely meaningless.

Hua Changfeng smiled bitterly.

"To a being like you, these things I possess are indeed insignificant."

However, he still did not give up and stated all the conditions he could think of, hoping that he could get what the other party needed.

"You mean you know a lot of top talent?"

Xia Yuan touched his chin, thoughtfully.

“They are not top talents, but they are definitely the best in their respective fields.”

He didn't know what the immortal meant by asking this, but he didn't dare to exaggerate, otherwise he would be the one to suffer.

"Well, let's put it this way. I'm going to need some top talent for my future research. If you can find five of them for me, I'll give you a chance."

Although Xia Yuan has cooperated with the authorities, he also wants to build an experimental base of his own after establishing the academy.

He also wants to produce some of the experimental results.

At the same time, he also trained his own team to help him do other things.

"No problem, what kind of talents do you need?"

Hua Changfeng was ecstatic. He never expected that he really had the conditions to impress the other party.

Given his situation, it would not be difficult to find 10 people.

"Mathematics, physics, history, literature, all fields are possible."

"The personnel don't have to be from Jiuzhou, as long as they meet the requirements."

"But not now. I'll tell you when I'm sure."

Hua Changfeng nodded.

"Can you give my friend a chance too?"

Gritting his teeth, he pleaded for Gu Yunhai.

"Yes, the conditions remain the same."

"After I have fulfilled my conditions, I will tell you this secret."

"But believe me, after knowing this, you may not want this opportunity."

If these two people can really meet my conditions, then give them this opportunity.

However, after the academy is established, he will set a standard, and only those who meet this standard can enter the academy for training.

Otherwise, even if you practice, you will only end up dying in vain.

And in the short term, he will not recruit more than ten people.

He needs to wait until the first group of people see the results before adjusting the standards based on the situation.

Only by selecting the best can we minimize deaths.

In the initial stage, only the most elite group of people are needed to explore the way!

After a while, Hua Changfeng and the others left Qingcheng Mountain.

The results obtained this time far exceeded their expectations.

I wanted to slowly build a good relationship with Qingyue and then take things step by step, but I never expected the surprise to come so suddenly.

"Crazy, thank you so much this time!"

"There's no need for us to say that. Besides, I was the one who asked you to come out this time. There's no reason not to bring you along."

When it comes to finding people, although both of them are from the same university, Gu Yunhai's connections are obviously far inferior to Hua Changfeng's.

If you want to find 10 people who meet the requirements, most of them can only rely on him.

The most important thing is that the immortal did not mention a specific standard.

In particular, some top talents may not be hired even if you have money.

After all, no one knows that this is working for the immortal!

So, this matter is not as simple as imagined.

"It's okay, take your time. The immortal didn't set a deadline."

"It's time to bring that guy Xiao Wen back!"

"Xiao Wen?"

"Yes, his words should suffice. How could I forget him for such a life-changing good deed?"

"Come to think of it, we haven't seen him in almost five years!"

"Let's go back to Kyoto."

The two looked at each other, their hearts full of anticipation for the future.

……

"Fellow Daoist Xia, how was the conversation?"

"It went very smoothly. I have officially reached a cooperation agreement with the authorities."

Seeing that the three of them were all curious, Xia Yuan didn't keep them in suspense and explained the details of the cooperation in detail.

"Superhuman Academy?"

"Experimental base?"

When they heard this idea, the three of them looked over at the same time.

"Fellow Daoist Xia, do you want to gather a group of people to work together to perfect the path to transcendence?"

Xia Yuan nodded.

"Well, our power is limited after all."

"So I plan to lead some people to the path of transcendence, perfecting their skills and their future path. My own path of cultivation is actually not very useful as a reference."

"Also, the laboratory is used to explore the uses of source energy and develop technology."

"We can't just walk on one foot. We need to develop both technology and transcendence simultaneously. Only then will we have a greater chance of finding source energy in the future."

"Besides, I do want to play a role in the development of mankind."

“As pioneers, we have to do something.”

"Don't you agree, Master Li?"

Li Qingxuan looked solemn and performed a standard Taoist salute.

"My fellow Daoist is so righteous, I cannot refuse my duty!"
