MTLNOVEL Chapter 145 I was thinking...
Some people are born to fry fish, while others are born assholes.
The chat group suddenly went silent for ten minutes, a whole ten minutes where nobody spoke, just quietly looking at the words on the screen.
Everyone in the 10008 group is a high-quality student, each one of them calm and composed, each one of them very... very much wanting to beat Meng Yu to death right now!
Listen to him, is that even human language?
Foundation Establishment by Enlightenment isn't good enough for him?
He thinks it has flaws!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Of course, the silence for ten minutes wasn't because everyone was too shocked to speak but because the administrator had immediately turned on the group mute, excluding admins and special users—there was no choice, as there were some straightforward children among the group who hadn't had their edges worn down by society. What if someone just lost it and started cursing?
As for Meng Yu, the special element, eleven of the twelve administrators (Meng Yu always skipped offline meetings with the group) had specifically held a meeting to discuss him and then reached a consensus.
Sometimes, it's better for everyone else to be stifled than to let Meng Yu feel at ease.
First, Meng Yu is too showy, and it can anger the students.
Second, Meng Yu isn't someone who talks nonsense; he risks his life to go online, and behind his showiness, there must be a reason—mm-hmm, like the last time he encouraged everyone to short the Star Industrial Company, making many people rich.
Third, Meng Yu has one advantage, which is that when he's showing off, if you stroke his ego, he gets very happy, and then he will throw out a ton of money, ah no, resources at you.
With that time at Star Industrial Company, when Meng Yu led everyone to wealth, what's the problem with letting him show off?
Moreover, this show-off king has his reasons to be arrogant, and it's not like he is targeting anyone personally.
"Oh great and genius Brother Meng, what do you mean by this?"
Zhuge Caihua didn't speak; it was another administrator who did, and his attitude was very good, he didn't even ask if Meng Yu's insights could be shared.
These words are seriously not to be said lightly.
It's different from the scientific community, where one's technological achievements are protected by patents, adorned with honors, and can even lead to the creation of a company; but in the world of cultivation, keeping a few tricks up your sleeve is how you ensure a means to establish yourself and your family's lives, or at least to keep a steady trickle coming in.
"Mmmm, I do have some thoughts about Foundation Establishment, but I'm still researching. I always feel it possesses quite an edge over the Foundation Establishment by Enlightenment."
You see, is this talking like a normal person?
Foundation Establishment by Enlightenment isn't good enough?
Of course, some administrators have already realized that Meng Yu is now very much in the mood to spill the beans, like someone who has caught a big fish or made a fortune; at such times, they're very excited and generally very generous.
He's probably saying, hurry up and flatter me, and once you do it right, I'll explain to you what genius is.
He has a genius idea, and he's so excited he thinks it's absolutely brilliant.
So, will the students flatter him?
From high school students to college students, everyone's in their third year, flattering seniors every day, flattering tutors every day, and even brownnosing Golden Core Masters from afar—and none of this is shameful.
If someone is stronger than you, more knowledgeable than you, can provide you with resources, help you in your cultivation, and even spend their precious time and energy to give you advice, what's there to be embarrassed about?
What's wrong with saying a few nice words?
Why should the Golden Core Masters bother to hold lectures and guide you all? Are they waiting for you to catch up in a few decades, or for the one in ten thousand, or even one in a hundred thousand chance that you will achieve the Golden Pill of Achievement?
Let's put it this way: Many families and clans within the Immortal Sect often have secrets that are not shared with outsiders, secrets that they would take to the grave rather than tell strangers, much like the university professors who will only teach you so much.
And now, Meng Yu is about to teach a class.
Flatter, go on, flatter me hard!
This concerns everyone's future in Foundation Establishment!
Instantly, the chat group became a sea of joy, with messages flooding in one after another, each compliment, ah no, flattery, stronger than the last like unstoppable waves!
"Brother Meng, you're our god in our hearts!"
"Brother Meng Yu, I have a little sister, six years old, her cat is as beautiful as a flower, do you want it?"
"Brother Meng, I recently knitted a pair of gloves, do you like them (that fox clan girl Su Xiaomei)?"
Well, the fox clan's gloves are quite famous. They are made from the fur collected from the tips of the fox tails over the year and typically only enough is gathered to knit a single glove in a lifetime.
Of course, there are also those with a more ordinary attitude.
"Brother Meng, do you have any good methods for Foundation Establishment?"
"Seeking sponsorship."
"Ah Yu, I miss you."
Well, the last one wasn't from Little Swallow. Remember the romantic tales that followed Meng Yu after the competition ended?
"Hmm, let's go chat on the forum."
...
Meng Yu was chatting enthusiastically with everyone.
Recently, he finally found two reliable internet experts. After Meng Yu gave them an irresistible sum of money, they custom built the best cloaking software for surfing the web for Meng Yu. They would never betray Meng Yu, because what he gave was too much, and Meng Yu's good reputation also made them trust him rather than report him.
The software is excellent, allowing Meng Yu to now focus on chatting.
The Immortal Sect, with its formidable hardware, could use traffic analysis to find out in which Minor World he was, but the expensive software he purchased meant that officials couldn't track him for three hours. Not to mention, he also stayed in places with particularly complex terrain. As soon as someone infiltrated, he would leave.
He went to the forum and checked the online count—goodness, it looked like everyone was online.
"I've been researching Formation lately and naturally came up with some insights. For example, I got an idea from the production of Spirit Stones."
Meng Yu typed out the first line, a line unrelated to Foundation Establishment.
"Our world has a method for producing Spirit Stones from the Spiritual Qi Tide. The Spiritual Qi Tide can create Spirit Stones, and you can also place depleted Spirit Stones within it to absorb and produce new Spirit Stones.
If stones can be recharged, what about people?
Also, when looking at history, sometimes planets would suddenly have individuals appear, akin to the Son of Heavenly Way or the World's Darling, whose cultivation is faster than ordinary people. So, is it possible to replicate this phenomenon? Enjoy exclusive content from empire
I'm considering an alternative path to Foundation Establishment. If I can resolve some technical issues, I'll be able to establish my foundation in about two or three years. And if this path to Foundation Establishment is successful, then at least reaching an Upper Third Rank Golden Core should be achievable, and maybe even having a chance to touch upon the Nascent Soul stage."
Meng Yu spoke vaguely, unclear on many details, but the readers of the post were all ears.
Secret techniques cannot be divulged lightly, nor discussed carelessly with irrelevant people. Often, you would be infinitely grateful for even a vague mention or hint.
A single sentence of true transmission.
Of course, if it were anyone else, people would just say that person was bragging. But this wasn't just anyone; it was the fearsome Brother Meng.
First in Immortal Sect's Qi Cultivation Sword Technique, a one-man army, Void Shifting... a list of glories bestowed upon him. Not to mention, according to experts' analysis, Meng Yu definitely had more tricks up his sleeve that he had yet to reveal. Whether it was his extraordinarily sharp Divine Sense or his miraculous ability to deflect force, he had been recognized as a once-in-a-millennium genius of the Immortal Sect.
Like the Formation that Meng Yu was researching.
Everyone agreed to study the Five Elements Array, yet you managed to come up with Void Shifting?
