From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

The entire room fell silent.

The extra two heads and four arms were not formed from the power of worship, nor were they magical artifacts, but rather real flesh and blood!

Although the Ghost Mother of the Ghost Hand King's Opera Troupe also has four arms and blue skin, it's not as exaggerated as having three heads and six arms!

"President, you're trying to bring myths and legends to life!" Zhuge Yu exclaimed.

"Isn't the most romantic thing in the world turning myths into reality?"

This is the end.

No one objected anymore.

Then, Jiang Liu said to Duanmu Ying, "Once the Life Iteration System is truly operational, Duanmu Ying, you should also participate."

"I'm working like a dog right now!"

Duanmu Ying looked resentful. "Organizing and planning the medical association's system, tutoring those doctors, and doing research with the medical teachers at the academy, I never thought that the higher my cultivation level and the more perfect my practice, the less free time I would have."

"The capable should do more work, Sister Mu Ying. By the way, Yue Kui is also a doctor. Her skills are more advanced than the 'Western' doctors we've been to, and she is especially good at neuroscience. You can ask her for advice when you go there. Who knows, you might be able to make further progress in medicine."

Jiang Liu gave Duanmu Ying a thumbs-up as encouragement.

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Ying was completely certain of Bai Yuekui's origins—

From other worlds.

[Damn it! You didn't even take me? Are we even friends anymore?]

Duanmu Ying stared wide-eyed.

Of course we're friends, but aren't you busy? I don't want to bother you, and besides, I'm not going there for fun; I'm going to find a lost part of my soul.

Jiang Liu shrugged, speaking as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.

Duanmu Ying: 【······】

Chapter 1301 Constructing the "Illusory Realm"

After discussing the purchase of West Lake and the establishment of a life iteration system based on the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon, Jiang Liu brought up the topic of communication devices.

However, the research progress of the heads of the Cultivation Department, the Weapon Forging Department, and the Crafts Department is limited... It's not that they haven't figured it out, but it's completely not as useful as the light points given by Jiang Liu.

Pick up the communication artifact created by the weapon crafting department—

It is 20 centimeters long, 8 centimeters wide, and 3 centimeters thick, similar to a brick, and comes in black and white. Its principle is similar to that of the Wang family's yin-yang paper.

However, the Wang family's Yin-Yang paper has a drawback: only when writing on black Yin paper can the content appear on Yang paper.

And what about these two "bricks"?

When you write on a blackboard, the words will appear on the whiteboard, and vice versa. This process does not require saliva, blood, or active qi circulation. Ordinary people write with their fingers, and the blackboard and whiteboard, under pressure, will spontaneously absorb the qi that is released during the body's instinctive life activities and gather it on the surface, thus transmitting information.

"It's definitely not as convenient as the 'Illusory Realm - Light Spot' communication method."

Jiang Liu nodded. "But its advantage is that ordinary people can use it. Can it be mass-produced?"

“Strictly speaking, this can’t really be considered a magic weapon. It just requires using Qi to nurture specially processed materials according to the methods we’ve developed. The output isn’t low,” Zhuge Yu, who also serves as the head of the weapon-refining department, affirmed.

"That's good."

"Are you going to mass-produce and sell them?"

Zhuge Yu inquired, "This is indeed a business that can make money."

"No rush, let's study the technology of 'recognizing the Lord' more, otherwise I'm afraid fake news will be flying everywhere."

Jiang Liu smiled and then asked Bai Yuekui, "Yuekui, do you think it's possible to incorporate the principles of my Taixu Illusionary Realm into the process of establishing the life iteration system?"

"what do you mean--"

“To build a ‘network’ based on the primordial Qi.”

Jiang Liu laughed and said, "Its energy consumption is maintained by all those who are willing to enter the illusion. According to my calculations, as long as the number reaches more than 100,000, the Qi dissipated from the normal life activities of most people will be enough to maintain the energy consumption of the Taixu Illusion, and even more than enough."

Since a global weekly weather pattern cannot be established in a short time, why not first create a virtual world that people can enter spiritually?

It is maintained by everyone.

Until the Earth's cyclical weather system evolves completely once again, this illusory realm may be able to be directly attached to the cyclical weather system, transforming the illusory into the real, becoming a three-dimensional space that all future "users" can enter in their physical bodies.

According to Jiang Liu's deduction, if humanity wants to truly explore the spatial scale of the universe, it is not enough to just study rockets; we must first achieve harmony between humanity and nature.

That is, the natural ecological system of the Way of Heaven is perfectly combined with the social system of intelligent beings... Perfection may be as far away as "Wuji" (the ultimate void), but at least it must be coordinated first.

"Worth a try."

After some thought, Bai Yuekui agreed, "Moreover, a trans-temporal device could also be created based on this, but I have a concern:

"During the construction process, the incense burner at the bottom of the lake will inevitably have to be broken open, but what if the energy within dissipates?"

After learning about the existence of the spirit of Qi, Bai Yuekui wanted to make use of, or rather, control, that peculiar "spirituality".

But the aura of West Lake has long since dissipated. If the furnace breaks, connecting the inside and outside, the spirit of that aura will perish.

That would be a losing proposition.

"Don't worry, the spirit of that aura has been cultivating for thousands of years, and the body of that blackfish is close to being semi-energy-based, so it won't dissipate so easily."

Jiang Liu was confident of victory. "Even if there is a real risk of it dissipating, I have two preparations."

The first one is himself, who can temporarily entrust the spirit of the Qi Bureau.

The second is the Buddha's hair relic, the precursor to the Azure Dragon and White Dragon. The spirits of the White Snake and Azure Snake resided in the Buddha's hair relic, which is why they were able to reach the river...

Afterwards, Jiang Liu discussed the Confucian Association's development plan for the next three years with everyone. Due to Bai Yuekui's addition, some adjustments needed to the details of the plan.

Everyone could understand this, but they were curious about Bai Yuekui's background.

After the meeting ended and everyone dispersed, Bai Yuekui also led her people to get busy. Jiang Liu then kept Zhuge Yu behind and said, "Brother Zhuge, I know you all have doubts about Yuekui's background, but it is not appropriate to reveal her identity in the short term. I can only tell you after the foundation of the 'Tai Xu Huan Jing' in West Lake is completed. Otherwise, if the news leaks out, it will only cause trouble."

"Understood."

Zhuge Yu's expression turned serious, but he was also genuinely curious. He asked, "Then what exactly is her identity? President, please tell me. When I get back, I'll immediately place a restriction on myself."

"I trust my brother."

Jiang Liu smiled and revealed Bai Yuekui's identity, "She is a visitor from another world. There is a mineral in that world called Marrow Crystal. Our world also has it, which I named Yin Marrow and Yang Sui, but it is rare. However, their world has a lot of it. It can even be generated on the bones of a beast they call 'Devouring Beast.' It is a regenerative resource that can store souls and Qi. If used for refining weapons, the effect is excellent."

Upon hearing about parallel universes, Zhuge Yu was dumbfounded and murmured, "The theory that the Three Thousand Worlds are not a falsehood?"

"To be honest, brother, I have already been to three worlds." Jiang Liu trusted Zhuge Yu and told him the truth.

Zhuge Yu, without any suspicion, was about to place a restriction on himself, but Jiang Liu stopped him, saying, "Brother, there's no need to be so serious. I trust you. Once the 'Illusory Realm of the Great Void' is completed, this secret can be revealed to our own people. And we won't have to wait too long; it will be completed in two or three years."

“So easy?”

Zhuge Yu couldn't believe it.

"The science and technology of other worlds are far more advanced and efficient than ours, that's all," Jiang Liu said with a smile.

"So that's how it is."

Zhuge Yu realized that the various types of systematic knowledge books Jiang Liu presented after returning from his studies abroad did not come from foreign universities, but from other worlds...

···

With the purchase of West Lake by the Confucian Association, Bai Yuekui also took action, leading eight members of the Dragon Household and Otter Family, including Gu Qian, to survey the specific scale of Three Pools Mirroring the Moon and the condition of the silt at the bottom of the water.

Although the West Lake was bought by the Confucian Association, it did not prohibit others from visiting Xiaoyingzhou Island. As a result, many people gathered to watch and wanted to see what the Confucian Association was up to.

"Why do you think the sage bought West Lake?"

"I heard they're going to dig up the incense burner under the Three Pools Mirroring the Moon."

"Is there really an incense burner down there?"

"Of course it's true! I went down there to see it when I was young, it was huge!"

"I think that the guild leader believes that it's not safe to keep the mullet demon under control all this time, because it will eventually come out and harm our descendants again. So he plans to just wipe it out and get rid of it once and for all!"

"Maybe they're digging for treasure! The Confucian Association's various expenditures are all publicly disclosed, and they're also taking in refugees from other places outside the city to build villages. Their income is insufficient to cover their expenses, so naturally they need money..."

"Is this grave robbing?"

"Did your ancestors include royalty or nobles?"

"No. My family used to be farmers. It was only in my generation that we came to the city to do business."

"Then what sympathy are you talking about! The Confucian Association calls this archaeology! Do you understand archaeology? We keep the artifacts so we can build museums for everyone to see, and the gold and silver are used for road construction, housing, and aiding refugees. How can that be the same as tomb raiding?"

"..."

Chapter 1302 "Recruiting the Enemy"

Buy West Lake, renovate incense burners—

The news quickly reached the ears of the leader of the Guo faction. He frowned and ordered Zhang Enpu, who had submitted to him, to lead the other followers of the "Strange People" to investigate.

However, Zhang Enpu used the excuse of "breaking through his limits" to avoid provoking Jiang Liu again.

Jiang Liu was strong and skilled. In his debate with Kong Yuru, he became a "sage". His words were like a shower of flowers covering thousands of mountains and a golden voice resounding through ten thousand rivers. He also awakened the spirit of Confucius within his righteous spirit, debated with him, and defeated him, thus forging his own unique literary courage.

As the saying goes:

Things shouldn't happen more than three times.

He has already been to the Confucian Association twice, and both times he went there to cause trouble. If he goes again, he might lose his life.

Although the man surnamed Jiang was dissatisfied, he couldn't say anything. He wanted to ask Kong Yuru to go, but she simply made up an excuse that she was "sick".

Left with no other choice, he went to find the 7th Changkya Khutuktu—a living Buddha of Tibetan Buddhism who was appointed the greatest living Buddha of Lamaism by the Guangxu Emperor when he was eight years old.

In fact.

So-called reincarnation is nothing more than the rotation of primordial Qi. Tibetan Buddhism has a close relationship with the Demon Kingdom and the Ghost Mother, and can teach practitioners to imprint information on their primordial Qi. Then, in the natural redistribution of primordial Qi, some so-called "memories of past lives" are preserved.

However, the reign of the Changkya Khutuktu was too short, and the so-called Living Buddha was nothing more than the most gifted child in history.

The seventh Changkya Khutuktu was conferred the title of Living Buddha by Emperor Guangxu when he was eight years old. In addition, the times changed and foreign cultures were introduced, which made him have no interest in cultivation. Moreover, because of his status and position as a "Living Buddha", no one dared to force him. Therefore, his cultivation was not high. He was just a lama who had completed the Great Circulation and could barely recite various Tibetan Buddhist scriptures and perform magic.

Knowing full well that Zhang Enpu had suffered a setback at Jiang Liu's hands and that Kong Yuru had lost his ancestral integrity, the 7th Zhangjia Hutuktu dared not provoke Jiang Liu.

Needless to say, the river itself is referred to as a "living Buddha" by the people of Yuhang...
