The Law of Heaven

Chapter 25 Schools of Perfection
At first, Aihara didn't take it seriously when he learned that he had been assigned to the reserve order, but when he went to the restaurant to eat, he felt that something was wrong.

The office staff would come here for afternoon tea during their lunch break. Normally, everyone would eat their own food and not bother each other, but when they found Aihara was there, they would all come over to chat and ask him all sorts of questions.

"How many people are there in the family?"

Where are you living now?

How are your grades at school?

What are your plans after graduating from high school?

Although it sounds like elders caring for younger generations, it always feels a bit strange because their next sentence is often: "We have a daughter in our family..."

This is clearly a blind date.

Aihara could only politely explain that he was not yet an adult.

But they didn't care at all, saying they weren't that traditional, and that young people could date first and have a child together even if they didn't get married.

Aihara was completely stunned. After finally managing to deal with the group, he slammed his fist on the table, indignantly exclaiming, "I suspect I've been set up!"

Master Zhou sat next to him, munching on fried chicken, and mumbled, "In recent years, the company has been dwindling in talent. It's not easy to find someone as talented as you, so of course we have to use you as a stud. Most people would envy that."

Aihara asked, puzzled, "Didn't I just finish my training? How did these people get the information so quickly?"

Master Zhou took a big gulp of cola: "Oh, your information has already been published on the internal network. These people are just here to try their luck. They've ruined their own accounts, so they're thinking about how to create new ones. Luckily, your genes are excellent, so they want to borrow your seed."

"I bother!"

Aihara ate his braised pork with rice with gusto and said irritably, "We're all immortal beings, how can you be so shameless? This is just too wild!"

"Those who live forever are far more shameless than ordinary people, but you don't need to worry about it. The ones who are truly qualified to let you marry into their family are all from the five great families. In a while, maybe a mature woman driving an Aston Martin will be picking you up from school."

Master Zhou looked on with envy.

"real or fake?"

Aihara was dumbfounded.

"Are you excited?"

"That's not the case either."

"Stop pretending, the five great families are full of beautiful women."

As soon as she finished speaking, a beautiful young woman in a suit and skirt walked down the aisle. Her makeup was exquisite and alluring, and her watery eyes swept over her with a smile.

"Master Zhou, is this the handsome young man?"

The young woman leaned forward slightly, her hands supporting her on the table, revealing her curvaceous figure, especially her beautiful legs in black stockings, which were pressed together, with her black high heels lightly touching the floor.

"Oh, Miss Jiang."

Master Zhou clearly knew this woman.

Miss Jiang gave Aihara a meaningful look.

"Okay, but I'll go get back to work now."

She gave me a flirtatious wink, swayed her hips as she walked away, and casually waved her hand, teasingly saying, "If you have the chance, come upstairs with me for a massage."

It has to be said that this tactic is extremely effective against teenage boys. It blatantly throws out temptations while keeping you in suspense, making you eager to try it.

Aihara was utterly horrified: "Holy crap!"

"This is Miss Jiang, 29 years old, divorced and single. This woman is shrewd and has some power in the office and considerable assets in private, but she has little hope of climbing any higher unless she can give birth to an outstanding offspring."

Master Zhou chuckled and said, "Tempted? If you could get on her list, you'd really save yourself a hundred years of hard work."

Aihara quickly waved his hand: "Master, I have no such worldly desires. As the old saying goes, a great man is born between heaven and earth, how can he live a life of melancholy and subservience to others?"

"It's okay to stay under a skirt for a long time."

"That's not OK."

"What if you could get something for nothing and not take any responsibility?"

"This humble monk will now return to secular life."

"Isn't this enough?"

Master Zhou sighed: "You're still young, you haven't experienced the harsh realities of life. Actually, the world of immortals isn't as good as you think. Many people struggle their whole lives, only to end up living a life similar to ordinary people, ultimately just having a wife, kids, and a warm bed."

Aihara was stunned.

"You remember that robber from Chaoxin Gymnasium, right? Last night, the company people already found out his background. He used to be a foreman on a construction site. His wife ran off with someone else after taking all his money. He was desperate and wanted to turn his life around through metaphysics. He accidentally merged with an ancient relic and became an immortal being."

Master Zhou said calmly, "But he lacked the talent to control the ancient artifacts, so they were corrupted. He had a son who was recently diagnosed with cancer. To raise money for treatment, he turned to robbery, a path of no return. In the end, he was moved by the principles of justice and fell into becoming a 'dead apostle.' Most of his accomplices were also like that."

Aihara was at a loss for words.

poor person must have something mean.

Those who are hateful often have tragic suffering.

"Many people believe that awakening will change their destiny. But the end of this road may not be the result you want. Many people stumble and fall their whole lives, only to find that the happiness they initially pursued is getting further and further away from them."

Master Zhou gave him a look that said, "This employee meal is pretty good, isn't it? Compared to the school meals, it's already quite delicious. But you've married into one of the five great families, and every day you eat delicacies from land and sea, like black truffles, black abalone, and king crab..."

He suddenly pulled out his phone, retrieved a document from the company's intranet, and handed it to him: "Here, this is the company's list of hunters who die or go missing every month. Don't think this is a joke; you might be next."

Aihara remained silent.

He knew that the other person meant well in reminding him.

The extraordinary world is dangerous. Although a certain order exists, the underlying logic is survival of the fittest; those who are not strong enough will be killed. And when people are killed, they die.

But his silence was not because he was frightened.

Instead, there was a familiar face on the list.

Mr. Zhai.

This person is among the top ten missing persons on this list. His full name is Zhai Shuohao, he is 37 years old, registered for two and a half years, and is Mongolian.

This information is not very detailed.

Aihara, however, fell into deep thought.

It's obvious that Mr. Zhai and the forces behind him are after Second Uncle, and the largest organization in this city is the Deep Blue Alliance of the five major families.

Given the sheer size of the Deep Blue Alliance, it's possible that there are traitors lurking within, and the mastermind behind it all could very well be one of them.

Aihara must not let his guard down.

"First of all, it can be confirmed that my second uncle is quite famous in the longevity circle of this city. However, many people think he is a charlatan and do not think he has anything important. With the size of Deep Blue Alliance, it would be very easy for them to investigate my background. Even Jian Mo, an old acquaintance of my second uncle, only asked me a few questions casually and could not be sure that I had the token of Misty Tower."

Aihara ate his meal calmly, secretly calculating in his mind: "The Deep Blue Alliance must have investigated me as well, and they've basically confirmed that the token isn't in my hands. Otherwise, whether by coercion or bribery, they would have already taken action."

Only Mr. Zhai kept a close eye on them.

This clearly indicates that the target has been identified, and the other party is trying to take over Uncle's shop using underhanded methods.

This guy is really persistent.

"Could Mr. Zhai be related to my second uncle's death?"

Aihara didn't know.

"What are you thinking about?"

Master Zhou couldn't help but ask.

"I'm wondering when I'll be able to obtain the Perfection Technique."

Aihara's statement signifies that she has made a choice.

Marrying into another family was not something he was considering.

Even if he were to die, even if he jumped off a building, he would never marry into the family.

I'll put my words right here!

"Hey, you're such a stubborn kid."

Master Zhou said helplessly, "The Perfection Technique is easy to teach; the instructors can teach it, but you might not be interested. This is because the Perfection Technique is also divided into levels and categories. The so-called Perfection Technique is a precious understanding of truth that the sages of the longevity race throughout the ages have explored through blood and fire."

He held up one finger: "The Art of Perfection, as the name suggests, is the art of completing spiritual transformations. In the past, it was also called the Art of Truth. The Art of Perfection includes philosophical speculation, analysis of human nature, self-identity, and behavioral practice. It is an ancient art, and the most brilliant pearl in the civilization of the immortal race."

Aihara shook his head, indicating that he did not understand.

"Do you know about the various schools of thought during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods? Including the Renaissance in medieval Europe, these were all periods when the art of 'completeness' achieved a leap forward. After thousands of years of evolution, 'completeness' has been continuously subdivided from its initial schools, gradually becoming applicable to every individual. The more powerful the 'completeness' is, the more complex and precise it becomes. At the same time, its requirements become more demanding, beyond the reach of ordinary people."

Master Zhou explained: "For example, there is a kind of perfection technique derived from the Christian Bible, which is called the Ten Commandments. To learn this perfection technique, you need to have a real religious faith and practice the so-called Ten Commandments in your heart and body, and not to offend them. When your heart and body follow these ten commandments and understand them from the bottom of your heart, your abilities will change and you will be reborn."

Aihara suddenly realized: "The country is doomed!"

Master Zhou continued, "This type of Perfection Technique is collectively known as the Faith School. In addition, there are also the famous academic schools, such as the Perfection Technique derived from Darwin's Theory of Evolution, which is called Survival of the Fittest. This type of Perfection Technique is simpler; you just need to believe in and understand its theory."

Aihara suddenly realized again: "The country is doomed!"

Master Zhou continued, “In addition, there are all sorts of techniques for achieving perfection in philosophy and art. Of course, there are also more abstract mystical schools, which are just pure nonsense and are difficult for the average person to understand.”

He hesitated for a moment: "For example, the mysterious sect used to have a kind of perfection technique, which has no logic at all and can only be learned by men. But it requires men to identify themselves as women from the bottom of their hearts and to live and even mate in a woman's way. Moreover, this perfection technique is quite powerful, but it has few adaptability and the conditions are quite harsh."

"Holy crap, this means we have to go to America on the other side."

Aihara understood.

The Complete Essence Technique is divided into five major categories.

Faith factions.

Academic schools of thought.

Philosophical schools of thought.

Art movements.

Mysterious faction.

"The level of a Perfection technique is important, but whether it suits you is even more important. Most Perfection techniques don't actually cause any amazing changes to your abilities; they just help you control yourself. Only a very few Perfection techniques will cause some special symbols to appear on your body. Let me think, your abilities are probably mental in nature, so you'd probably have to study philosophical or mystical schools."

Master Zhou cautioned, "You can learn some basic Perfection Techniques; there's no harm in it, and it can help you enhance your abilities. But the problem is, the sequence you're currently in is being treated like a baby."

Aihara's eye twitched slightly.

"I was already stuck with instructor Li Yun, and now I've entered the baby sequence. If I want to obtain the Perfection Technique, I have to show some real talent to impress those important figures. After all, the Perfection Technique is a tradition, passed down only to its own people."

Master Zhou sighed, "You're really like someone who has a path to heaven but chooses not to, who toils endlessly in the sea of ​​learning. Why bother? Wouldn't it be better to cling to a rich woman's leg?"

"Ha, even if I'm going to suck up to someone, I'll suck up to the richest and most beautiful woman."

A plan began to take shape in Aihara's mind.

The timing isn't right yet; I'll try it when I get back to the store!
