" Director Li, the international reaction has been significant."
"However, the various countries are still keeping it under control; it seems they just want to verify the authenticity and effectiveness of cultivating immortality."
Great Xia, Bureau 749 Valley Base.
In Li Yuanchao's office, the clerk beside him reported on the reactions of various countries after the Great Xia's showdown.
The methods used by different countries are largely the same.
They simply used various means to find all the information and documents related to cultivating immortality, including the breathing techniques issued by the Great Xia Dynasty a few years ago.
These foreign dignitaries showed great skepticism and interest in the idea that humans could cultivate themselves into gods.
The Great Xia had anticipated this long ago.
"They think they can cultivate immortality?"
"Hehe..."
With a cold snort, Li Yuanchao didn't care at all.
On this Blue Star today, in terms of military strength, the Great Xia fears no nation.
When it comes to cultivating immortality, they can't even come close.
Let's set aside whether these foreigners can understand meridians, the five elements, Celestial Person.
In terms of hardware conditions, Spiritual Qi concentration, and cultivation methods alone, people abroad won't be able to even get close to it for at least a hundred years.
The highest level of cultivation method in the Great Xia has now reached the Golden Core stage.
The concentration of Spiritual Qi was several times higher than outside.
Even in most parts of the world, the revitalization of Spiritual Qi has not yet begun.
Under such conditions, by Xian Yi, the Great Xia Dynasty could crush all the nations of Blue Star!
"Ignore them for now; what we need to pay attention to is the public's reaction and emotions."
"We must ensure that all departments complete the necessary preparations."
"A smooth and orderly transition during this period."
" The Cultivation Administration will be very busy during this period and may experience a shortage of manpower. Our bureau needs to provide support."
Li Yuanchao issued orders methodically.
The Great Xia Dynasty was at the forefront of the times.
At this critical juncture, we must be extremely careful!
Surprisingly, the public's acceptance was much stronger than expected.
I wonder if the groundwork laid over the past few years has finally paid off.
After the initial shock and surprise, a wave of cultivation enthusiasm swept across the entire Great Xia.
Everyone downloaded the breathing guidance method from the official website and tried to Qi Introduction.
Yes, the breathing guidance method has been fully disclosed.
This is also one of the methods used by the state to test Spirit Root; the presence of qi indicates the presence of Spirit Root.
There's no need to expend huge resources on a nationwide Spirit Root census.
A nationwide wave of spiritual practice is surging forward...
At 7:30 a. m., deliveryman Xu Dabao didn't rush out of bed to grab orders as usual.
The news last night kept him so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.
At that moment, as soon as the alarm clock went off, he jumped out of bed.
I pulled my phone out of the covers.
"Official Basic Daoyin Breathing Method (Trial Version for All) - Illustrated Explanation..."
"Is it really possible to cultivate immortality? Can someone like me do it too?"
He looked at the breathing guidance method he had downloaded from the official website on his phone screen.
Xu Dabao was somewhat excited and nervous.
Cultivating immortality!
Who wouldn't want that? If he could cultivate immortality, would he still need to deliver food by bike all day?
Delivering him directly by flying on a sword—that's definitely a solo king's move!
No need to recharge; just sit down to recover your Spiritual Power when you run out.
Just thinking about it makes me happy.
Xu Dabao then sat cross-legged according to the instructions in the illustrated guide.
Keep your back straight and, following the diagram, try to feel the Spiritual Qi that may exist in the air, breathing in and out.
Ten minutes later, he slowly exhaled and opened his eyes slightly.
To be honest, apart from feeling a little numbness in his legs, he didn't feel anything else.
"It's probably normal not to feel anything..."
"The official website does state that aptitude varies from person to person, and most people don't see any noticeable reaction on their first try."
"It takes at least three to seven days of continuous practice to possibly develop a preliminary sense of Qi."
Xu Dabao muttered something, not too disappointed.
On the contrary, they became even more enthusiastic; the existence of a threshold proves its authenticity.
If it could be accomplished so easily, that would be truly outrageous.
He jumped out of bed excitedly and didn't linger any longer.
Whether or not one can actually cultivate immortality is another matter, but the food delivery still needs to be done.
If this delays even a little, the lunch rush hour will start soon.
"Start!"
"I'll make a few more deliveries today, save up some money... maybe I can even buy a magic Law Artifact or something when I'm cultivating!"
I grinned at myself in the mirror.
With anticipation for the future shining in his eyes, he opened the order-taking app and went online.
The familiar notification sound rang out, and Xu Dabao began his daily meal delivery.
The times changed dramatically, and after the initial panic and surprise, hope followed.
Everyone was full of energy and looked forward to the arrival of a new era.
The first takeout order was placed in an office building in the city center.
Liu Yingjun received a phone call, walked out from the front desk, and took his lunch from the deliveryman.
But his eyes never left his phone.
Walking back to my cubicle, I was surrounded by colleagues huddled together and my neighbor having a heated discussion.
"What do you think of the feng shui of our building? Is the Spiritual Qi stronger than other places?"
"Forget it, I read online that parks and mountains are the best places..."
"How about we try going to the rooftop during our lunch break?"
"Forget it, I'm not going. I've already decided to quit my job and go live a quiet life in the mountains."
"When we meet again, you'll probably have to call me Foundation Establishment True Person, just like in the TV shows, hahaha!"
"..."
The whole office was talking about what happened last night.
No one was focused on their work.
Even in the work group, the manager and supervisor unusually did not urge progress, and only sent one message.
"Please make your own arrangements this morning, familiarize yourselves with the new official information, be mindful of the company's image, and avoid disrupting public order."
It's clear that even private companies have been notified by the relevant authorities.
All enterprises and organizations must play a role in stabilizing public sentiment.
Liu Yingjun placed the takeout on the table, minimized his work document, opened his browser, and skillfully logged into the official website.
He had already watched the announcement and breathing technique tutorial pinned to the top of the homepage more than a dozen times last night.
Now I can't help but click on the science Q&A and latest news sections next to it.
Hopefully, I'll see something new again.
He had never paid so much attention to the government's official website before.
But now, he's not even willing to let go of major online forums.
The titles—such as "An Initial Exploration of Spirit Root Types," "Precautions for the Initial Stage of Cultivation," and "The National Cultivation Administration's First Public Recruitment (Preparatory) Notice"—made his heart race.
From 7 a. m. yesterday, some things have changed completely.
Going to work, working overtime, saving money to buy a house.
These were once the main themes of life, but suddenly a fork in the road appeared beside them, radiating an alluring light and full of endless possibilities.
And this road is now open to everyone.
Who can control themselves?
As I scrolled the mouse up and down, suddenly!
An announcement from one of China's largest internet companies immediately caught his attention.
"This is..."
Liu Yingjun could hardly believe his eyes.
Several large headlines came into view.
"Regarding Goose Factory's official recruitment notice for Qi Sensing employees, Great Void Internet Sect welcomes you to join us!"
