74: Chapter 73 Promotion of Martial Arts
"Over thirty countries are about to be completely wiped out. Lin Lei, it's time for you to go back and pass down your martial Dao Cultivation Technique."
Ye Qingxuan used his Divine Sense to observe the entire Blue Star.
In those countries that abandoned the mission, zombies were running rampant everywhere. Modern weapons could only destroy low-level zombies and were completely useless against Wandering Zombies and Flying Zombies. The scene was terribly tragic.
Yet he remained completely unfazed.
"Those not of our kind are bound to have different hearts." No matter how ferocious the monsters were, they could not step foot into China's territory.
The life or death of foreign countries had nothing to do with him.
Lin Lei immediately stood up and nodded respectfully. "Alright, Daoist Ye, then I will take my leave first."
"I'll give you a lift," Ye Qingxuan smiled.
"Don't, don't, don't! No need for a lift! Really no need!"
Lin Lei waved his hands frantically, creating afterimages, completely panicked.
During this period, he had long heard about it from Disciple Xiyue and Ximo.
Ye Qingxuan liked to throw people into the sky as if they were hidden weapons.
He was only at the Perfection of Spiritual Orifice Realm, equivalent to the Perfection of Foundation Establishment, but martial Dao was not as versatile as immortal cultivation in its early stages. He couldn't fly at all right now, nor could he travel through the air, and he hadn't even had time to create a flying technique yet.
Being thrown down from a high altitude would be pure, unadulterated suffering.
But his objections were useless.
Ye Qingxuan never negotiated with people; he only notified them.
Before the words even faded, a surge of magic power directly wrapped around Lin Lei's entire body.
Boom!
He shot straight up into the sky in an instant.
Up in the sky, Lin Lei's miserable wails faded into the distance, growing smaller and smaller until he was just a black dot.
Ye Qingxuan looked toward the horizon and silently complained in his heart:
"Why waste so many words with me?
I was just notifying you, not asking for your permission.
This is the future Martial Ancestor. Opportunities to mess with him like this will only decrease, so I might as well make the most of it."
Beside him, Qingling was covering her mouth and laughing, while Qingming, Qingyun, and Qingmo all had eyes full of regret.
Their expressions clearly said: "We acted too late; if we knew earlier, we would have thrown him too."
After all, they were all taught by the same Master, so their wicked humor was identical.
Qingming immediately spoke up tactfully, "Alright, alright, scatter, everyone. Don't be an eyesore here and interrupt their world for two."
Saying that, he directly grabbed Ximo, turned into a streak of light, and fled.
Qingyun was even more direct: "I'm going back to secluded cultivation."
He casually scooped up Qingmo and carried him away too.
Qingmo was completely bewildered.
He screamed inwardly: "I haven't even cleaned up the pill refinement room yet! Now that Ximo ran away, who's going to help me clean it up?!"
Once they left, Xiao Jiu, the Three-Flower Cat who had been fanned into a drowsy state by Ximo, instantly woke up.
It opened its round eyes and glanced around.
Everyone had run away.
Only Ye Qingxuan and Qingling remained, standing beside each other and locking eyes, the atmosphere intensely ambiguous.
Xiao Jiu couldn't be bothered to watch, turned over, and buried its head to go back to sleep.
Ye Qingxuan reached out to wrap his arm around Qingling's waist, looking down at her with a relaxed tone: "Senior Sister, everyone is gone. Let's take a walk down the mountain."
Qingling's eyes curved gently, and she smiled sweetly: "Okay."
...
Meanwhile, in China, at Zijin Mountain.
Elder Two and Number One were sitting in the garden, discussing all the follow-up arrangements after the conclusion of the National Destiny Space.
Recently, over thirty countries worldwide had collapsed one after another, with news of monsters slaughtering entire nations pouring in continuously.
Coupled with the merger of North Korea into China, everything happened too fast, placing immense pressure on the entire high command.
Just as the two were discussing seriously...
...a absurd, blood-curdling wail suddenly came from the sky.
The sound was sharp and miserable, approaching from afar, making one's scalp tingle.
Elder Two froze. "This voice... why does it sound so familiar?"
Number One rolled his eyes. It was all too familiar—it was the voice of Elder Two's biological grandson, which he recognized immediately.
"It's Xiao Lei."
Elder Two was even more confused. "Xiao Lei? Isn't he supposed to be cultivating at Daoist Ye's place for three months? Why did he come back early?"
Before the words were finished—
"Bang!"
A soft thud sounded.
A figure slammed firmly onto the open space in the garden. The ground remained completely intact without a single crack, clearly showing that the landing spot had been carefully controlled.
It was none other than Lin Lei, who had been thrown all the way back.
Rubbing his numb buttocks, he grimaced as he stood up. Seeing his two Elders, he immediately straightened his posture and greeted respectfully, "Grandpa, Chief Grandpa, I'm back!"
Elder Two stared at him and launched three rapid questions:
"Why are you back early?"
"Why did you crash down from the sky?"
"Did you make a mistake and get kicked out?"
Lin Lei was instantly dumbfounded, his mind in a jumble, not knowing which question to explain first.
Seeing this, Number One stepped in to smooth things over, "Don't rush him with rapid-fire questions. Let the kid speak slowly."
Lin Lei took a deep breath and got straight to the main points:
"Grandpa, I didn't make any mistakes."
"Daoist Ye said I made rapid progress and made up for all my martial shortcomings. The martial Dao system I created is now completely perfected."
"I have fully integrated Dual Cultivation of magic and martial arts. My current strength is equivalent to the Perfection of Foundation Establishment after breaking through the 13th layer of Qi Refining."
"Daoist Ye said that my martial Dao system can definitely be promoted nationwide."
Just a few short sentences.
The moment they heard this...
...the expressions of Elder Two and Number One instantly shifted.
From initial curiosity, it turned to shock, then to stupor, and finally transformed directly into ultimate ecstasy!
They were not novices.
They knew the hundred solutions to immortal cultivation by heart and clearly understood the massive significance of the Perfection of Foundation Establishment.
This was already a Realm that ordinary practitioners could only reach after bitter cultivation for over a decade or even decades! What's more, it was a Dao Foundation equivalent to the 13th layer of Qi Refining!
That was talent on par with the Ancestor Tianshi, Patriarch Lü, and Immortal Master Sanfeng!!
Although Elder Two had previously heard Ye Qingxuan mention that Lin Lei possessed Heaven-Defying talent...
...that was only hearsay.
Now seeing the results with his own eyes, he still felt an unreal sense of dreaming.
He stared fixedly at Lin Lei and solemnly verified once more, "Are you sure? Has your martial Dao really fully taken shape? Are there no hidden dangers?"
"Absolutely no problem!"
Lin Lei spoke with full confidence: "I cultivated and shaped it entirely under the watch of Daoist Ye and his Senior Brothers, and they all approved."
"However, I've only created the first two Realms so far. Daoist Ye said my Foundation is insufficient, and if I want to create the subsequent Realms, I need to come back to get something from you to supplement my Foundation."
His eyes were filled with anticipation.
This was a grand Opportunity that could allow all the people of China to practice martial arts and rise together!
Elder Two exhaled a long breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and nodded heavily: "Alright, I understand. I'll give it to you in a moment."
He exchanged a glance with Number One, both seeing the excitement in each other's eyes.
It worked.
China was finally going to have its own cultivation system.
All along, China's powerhouses had relied entirely on the immortal cultivation Legacy.
However, the threshold for immortal cultivation was extremely high, and ordinary people could never even touch the threshold in their entire lives.
Furthermore, the world of immortal cultivation and the nation were ultimately two separate systems.
Nobody knew whether everything would reset to zero after the National Destiny Space closed in the future, or whether China would still be able to maintain its current dominance.
Deep down in everyone's heart, there had always been the deepest concern.
But Lin Lei's new martial Dao completely broke this deadlock!
Everyone could Cultivate it!
No threshold!
Easily popularizable!
This was China's true Foundation and confidence for the future!
Lin Lei raised his hand and brought out a hand-bound booklet.
Since he had not yet developed Divine Sense and couldn't directly transmit thoughts, he could only handwrite every single stroke of the Cultivation Technique contents.
"These are the first two martial Dao Realms I've compiled. Daoist Ye checked them and confirmed they are correct, so they can be promoted nationwide for cultivation immediately."
Number One looked at the thin technique booklet, his gaze exceptionally solemn.
"This matter is too significant."
Elder Two immediately spoke up: "Number One, I'll leave the full arrangement of the nationwide promotion to you. I'll take Xiao Lei to get the item first to help him supplement his Foundation so he can create the subsequent Realms as soon as possible."
Saying that, he didn't even wait for a response and directly pulled Lin Lei away at a fast pace.
Number One completely understood.
If it were him, he would be even more anxious than Elder Two.
He turned to look at the secretary-general, who had been listening quietly and pretending to be invisible the whole time, and instructed solemnly: "You heard everything just now. Immediately organize personnel to seal, research, and prepare the national martial Dao promotion plan with the maximum secrecy level."
"Yes, Chief!"
With a solemn expression, the secretary-general immediately took the order and withdrew, a tempestuous wave of excitement rising in his heart as well.
...
By the seaside.
A gentle breeze blew as the sea waves gently lapped against the beach.
Barefooted, Ye Qingxuan held Qingling's hand as they strolled leisurely on the soft sand.
The surroundings were quiet and pleasant.
Looking at the distant horizon where sea met sky, Qingling spoke softly with a trace of curiosity:
"Qingxuan, is Lin Lei's future really as grand as you say, capable of becoming a generation's Martial Ancestor?"
