n

n

nAlthough the improvement this time wasn’t much.

n

nBut for He Chuan, it was the first step to opening the door to a new world.

n

nHe believed that in the near future.

n

nWhen more people accepted his theory, it would usher in an even greater wave of gains.

n

nAt that moment, after settling the matter at hand, He Chuan didn’t plan to stay any longer and prepared to lead his troops back to Glory City.

n

nThe Dojo Master wanted him to stay for two more days to discuss his cultivation experience.

n

nHowever, He Chuan rejected him with the beast tide as a reason.

n

nThe Dojo Master had nothing to say. He generously asked his disciple to bring out another batch of Hanshi Powder. After modifying it according to the new formula, he passed it to He Chuan.

n

nHe Chuan did not stand on ceremony.

n

nHe had mixed a lot of private goods into his improved guiding technique.

n

nIt incorporated many of the subtleties of the Tyrannical True Cultivation Manual.

n

nGetting some resources wasn’t a big deal.

n

nAfter the Dojo Master sent He Chuan off, he stood at the door and looked around for a long time before sighing slightly.

n

n“This favor… can’t be repaid…”

n

nThe stronger a person was, the more they didn’t like to owe others a favor. It was easy to become obsessed during cultivation, causing one to feel depressed and unable to break through.

n

nThe Dojo Master’s thoughts changed slightly, and he suddenly thought it through.

n

nWouldn’t it be okay if he just handed over the Hanshi Powder and the guiding technique to the main hall?

n

nThis wasn’t a favor that he alone owed!

n

n“It’s time to go back. The beast tide is just around the corner. Although this place is remote, it might not be safe.”

n

nAt this moment, a horn sounded from the edge of the cliff.

n

nThe army was about to leave.

n

nHis gaze was deep as he looked in that direction.

n

nThe thought of taking He Chuan away suddenly appeared in his mind.

n

nEvery two seconds, he shook his head gently.

n

nHe Chuan did not hold anything back from them and taught them everything. Such a selfless person would not let the people of Glory City be in danger.

n

n“Little friend He Chuan, I wish you a safe journey. I’ll see you again when you come back.”

n

n…

n

nIn the blink of an eye, the army passed through the Gobi Desert and returned to the mountain forest. Once again, they were divided into smaller groups.

n

nOn the way back, He Chuan paid attention to his surroundings while recounting his gains from this trip.

n

nAfter reading the guidance technique, he got the inspiration and felt he could perfect the Tyrannical True Cultivation Manual and allow it to be spread and used to cultivate in this world.

n

nPerhaps he could even awaken and obtain an innate ability to play with.

n

nIt didn’t matter if he didn’t awaken it. Once he had the strength, there would be no restrictions on his travel.

n

nAt that time, he would be able to do even more things.

n

n“Your Highness!”

n

nAt this moment, Lin Cheng and Xu Ke rushed over from behind and caught up with the team. They arrived at He Chuan’s left and right sides.

n

nThe two of them looked at each other and hesitated.

n

nHe Chuan stared straight ahead and asked casually, “Did you mess up?”

n

nXu Ke scratched his head, “Not really. You asked the soldiers to record the terrain around the city as much as possible. However, after they come and go twice… many places have not been explored. I’m afraid it will be difficult to make the sandbox.”

n

n“No worries.”

n

nHe Chuan waved his hand gently. “It’s good that you have a general idea. Treat the empty spots as a gathering place for the beasts to guard against. After the magic cannons are produced, it will be easier to deploy the cannons in the city defense area.”

n

n“Sigh, it’s just that the sacrifices are a little too big… I’m afraid that more than a thousand people have been killed in this exploration.”

n

nLin Cheng Sighed, looking a little pained.

n

nHe Chuan didn’t say anything.

n

nLin Ya, who was standing at the side, suddenly frowned and said, “Brother, these sacrifices are all for the future. The magic cannons are extremely heavy, and moving them in the middle of a battle is impossible. If we don’t set up defenses in advance, the losses will be even greater.”

n

n“That’s not what I mean.”

n

nHe Chuan’s voice was calm, “I’m not asking a few people to sacrifice for the majority of people. It’s just that there’s no way to avoid the sacrifice on the road to salvation. Those who were merciful don’t fit to be generals. I don’t want to tell you such a simple principle in person. Do you understand?”

n

nLin Cheng was shocked, “Your subordinate is muddle-headed. I hope Your Highness will not blame me…”

n

nHe Chuan did not care about this. If Lin Cheng were not a kind person, he would not have fought alongside him.

n

nXu Ke came out at the right time to change the topic and mediate the atmosphere. He asked about what happened to He Chuan in the dojo.

n

nThis question was excellent.

n

nHe Chuan’s answer shocked them.

n

nModified Hanshi Powder!

n

nImproved the guidance technique!

n

nIt could create an awakened that was out of reach in their minds!

n

nAll of this seemed like a fantasy.

n

nNo one could accept it in a short period of time.

n

nEven reason told them that.

n

nThey could not trust He Chuan’s words!

n

nBut He Chuan had no reason to lie to them.

n

nThus, he held onto the hope of becoming awakened.

n

nXu Ke asked expectantly, “Your Highness, as long as you take the Hanshi Powder and use the guidance technique, can you really become an awakened… Ah, no, become a spiritual cultivator?”

n

nAs soon as he said this, the soldiers at the side pricked up their ears to listen.

n

nAn awakened!

n

nThis temptation was unusually great!

n

n“Not necessarily.” He Chuan shook his head and said, “Although it has been optimized, it only makes the awakening possible. In fact, the probability is not high.”

n

n“Then, if we fail, won’t we only be able to walk the path of martial cultivators.”

n

nXu Ke’s excitement seemed to have dropped a lot, “That’s too brutal. It doesn’t seem to suit me.”

n

n“Look at how beautiful you look.”

n

nLin Cheng had just offended He Chuan, and he was eager to have a chance to make up for his mistake. He immediately said, “This Hanshi Powder was brought back by His Highness. How can it be yours.”

n

nXu Ke laughed, “I’m just saying.”

n

n“It’s okay. If you want to be awakened, you’ll have a chance when we get back.”

n

nHe Chuan patted his shoulder, “After we get to the city, boil these medicines into a pot and let the people and soldiers in the city choose to take it.”

n

nXu Ke was shocked.

n

n“Your Highness, this Hanshi Powder is so precious. It’s not an exaggeration to say that it’s a rare treasure. I heard that even if you take it repeatedly, it will still have an effect. Are you sure you don’t want to keep it for your use and want to distribute it?”

n

n“Yes, but before distributing it, remember to clarify that the possibility of awakening to spiritual cultivators is not high. Let them think it over carefully.”

n

nHe Chuan did not say too much.

n

nThis Hanshi Powder was too low-grade for him. You couldn’t even compare it to the gene reagent from his first life, so he had no interest in taking it.

n

nWhy not increase the strength of the lower city defense so that everyone had the possibility of becoming awakened?

n

nAt the same time, he could also get a wave of rewards for distributing his wealth.

n

nHearing such an answer.

n

nLin Cheng and Lin Ya, the siblings; Xu Ke; and even the surrounding Marshals and soldiers were all stunned.

n

nJust how selfless was the City Lord!

n

nHe was able to unconditionally give such a precious thing to everyone to use together. Was he not feeling distressed?
