"Oh?"
Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi developed some interest in Lin Chen. Such an unconventional person often possessed true talent.
More importantly, it was his disciple Xue Qinghe's recommendation. Someone valued by Xue Qinghe might truly be a talent.
Ning Fengzhi took a deep look at Xue Qinghe, then flipped through the book in his hand.
"After awakening a Spirit, Soul Power is not immutable. Consuming certain Immortal Herbs can increase Soul Power, and some special meditation methods also have this effect. For specific cultivation methods, please refer to: Mysterious Heaven Skill!"
"This…" Ning Fengzhi's eyes widened, his face full of suspicion.
Following the directory's hint, Ning Fengzhi found the location of Mysterious Heaven Skill. The human meridian map and the spirit power circulation routes were written in great detail. The more he read, the more shocked he became. With a thought, he practiced according to the spirit power circulation route described within. Ning Fengzhi found that his spirit power circulated much more smoothly. He couldn't help but exclaim, "This person is truly a great talent!"
Ning Fengzhi ignored the reactions of others and continued to read.
"Yu Xiaogang… he was already a good-for-nothing… I don't know how that old dragon could have such a son!"
Ning Fengzhi shook his head, scoffed, and continued to flip through. The further he read, the brighter his eyes became, because this book was indeed excellent, full of practical content, especially combining theory and practice. It could be said to be a truly priceless treasure.
"In addition, consuming certain Immortal Herbs can also evolve a Spirit. For example, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda can evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. For details, please refer to: Immortal Herb Illustrated Guide!"
"Immortal… Herb… Illustrated… Guide," Ning Fengzhi murmured to himself, flipping back to the directory to find the location of the Immortal Herb Illustrated Guide.
"qiluo tulip…" Ning Fengzhi's voice trembled slightly, and his eyes were a little red.
Ning Fengzhi excitedly said, "Qinghe, where is Lin Chen now? Can you introduce him to me?"
Xue Qinghe shook his head and said, "Qinghe doesn't know. After he bid me farewell yesterday, he continued to travel the Continent."
"Alas… what a pity!"
Hearing Xue Qinghe's words, Ning Fengzhi sighed.
Xue Qinghe smiled and said, "Teacher, before Lin Chen left, Qinghe promised him to publish this book. Qinghe is also working on this matter. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's businesses are spread throughout the entire Douluo Continent. Please cooperate with me to publish this World-shattering masterpiece!"
"What did you say?" Ning Fengzhi was stunned, somewhat doubting if he had heard wrong. This book was a priceless treasure to any force. Any force could cultivate a large number of excellent disciples through it. Now he was being told to publish it. Wasn't this a joke?
"Teacher, the content of this book is very helpful to commoners. Lin Chen doesn't have any official position, but he cares for the commoners of the Continent. As the Heaven Dou Crown Prince, I should do my part for my citizens!" Xue Qinghe spoke nonsense with a serious expression.
Ning Fengzhi frowned tightly and asked, "Do you know what this book means to any force?"
Xue Qinghe nodded and said, "Qinghe understands. Such a masterpiece is a coveted treasure for any force, capable of raising their overall strength to a new level!"
Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi's body trembled slightly. Xue Qinghe clearly knew the importance of this book to a Sect, yet he still decided to publish it, completely disregarding the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
But Ning Fengzhi quickly came to a realization. The benefits of monopolizing this masterpiece were naturally self-evident, but whether it was a blessing or a curse was still an unknown.
Ning Fengzhi continuously analyzed the pros and cons in his mind.
If he chose to monopolize it, whether the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School could guard this masterpiece would be a serious problem. Every Sect had spies from hostile forces, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was naturally no exception. Once hostile forces learned of this matter, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would surely fall into an unprecedented crisis.
At the same time, he and Xue Qinghe would inevitably harbor resentment, disrupting his original plans. Once Xue Qinghe ascended the throne and became Emperor in the future, at least the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School could be safe for a hundred years.
If he chose to share it, the author would inevitably become famous, but Xue Qinghe would gain even greater benefits. Simply the reputation of caring for his citizens would make Xue Qinghe's position in the Heaven Dou Empire unshakeable. Perhaps this could accelerate Xue Qinghe's ascension to the throne.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would also have no worries. Its disciples could also cultivate the methods within. Although everyone was progressing, at least you weren't falling behind, right?
To give is to gain… there is no gain without giving. Understanding the key to this, Ning Fengzhi looked deeply at Xue Qinghe, a look of relief appearing on his face.
Previously, Ning Fengzhi had indeed failed to see the situation clearly in the face of enormous profit, somewhat blinded by a single leaf.
However, Xue Qinghe, despite clearly seeing his inner desire, remained true to his original intention, neither humble nor arrogant, displaying the demeanor of an Emperor.
"Good, then I, your teacher, will lend you a hand!" Ning Fengzhi said with relief.
Xue Qinghe bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Teacher!"
…
Once the Empire's machine started running, its speed was incredibly fast. Coupled with the cooperation of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, in just three days, the masterpiece "Encyclopedia of Martial Soul Cultivation" caused an uproar on the Douluo Continent.
As "Encyclopedia of Martial Soul Cultivation" continued to spread, Lin Chen's name also appeared in the public eye and was widely circulated.
At the same time, Xue Qinghe's prestige in the Heaven Dou Empire reached an unprecedented height.
Originally, more than half of the officials in the Heaven Dou Empire secretly supported Xue Qinghe. Through this incident, the neutral factions also gradually gravitated towards Xue Qinghe.
Because of this, Xue Xing and Xue Beng both felt powerless, only able to watch Xue Qinghe's prestige grow day by day, yet they were helpless and could do nothing about Xue Qinghe.
Because Xue Qinghe's actions were righteous, choosing to oppose Xue Qinghe at this time would be equivalent to opposing all the commoners in the Empire.
All the commoners, with just one person's spit, could drown them.
Therefore, even if Xue Xing and Xue Beng were unwilling, they could only temporarily avoid the limelight.
As Lin Chen became famous, those who wanted to understand him found that Lin Chen seemed to not exist in this World at all, leaving no trace of his life.
This discovery not only did not harm Lin Chen's glorious image, but instead made the commoners regard him as a divine messenger sent by Heaven to save the commoners.
After the cultivation methods and theories in "Encyclopedia of Martial Soul Cultivation" were verified one by one, a wave of cultivation swept across the Douluo Continent.
People across the Continent would occasionally shout the names of those ultimate skills!
Compared to it, Yu Xiaogang's works were like child's play, scorned by everyone.
