Chapter 25

Seeing those prices, Lin Tuo’s slightly enthusiastic mind suddenly calmed down.

Although his Ether had exceeded 500 points for the first time in history, it was still nothing compared to what the Mall had in store.

‘Then maybe I wait for a while? When the Ether recovers, I could absorb it again to make up a total of a thousand points.‘

Lin Tuo turned his head to look at the changing sandbox continent.

The green and white aura had begun to slowly recover and he immediately calculated.

Through observation during this period, he realized that storing Ether in his body was not that worthwhile.

First of all, although Ether could temper his body, the process was slow. Even if he practiced martial arts and polished his body every day, the process could only be accelerated slightly.

In other words, there was no rush to temper his body and evolve life.

In addition, he also discovered that his own use of Wuzu Boxing would consume Ether to a certain extent.

For example, when he tried to mobilize Ether and condense an illusory weapon, releasing it would consume Ether.

In this case, it is wise to spend the absorbed points as soon as possible and invest.

At the moment there was only this product in the Mall, and he seemed to have no other choice.

‘No, I can also release Ether to increase the concentration of Ether in specific areas!‘ Lin Tuo suddenly had an idea in his mind.

As a kind of energy, Ether can be absorbed and naturally released.

If he was normally practicing, Ether was hard to absorb and it didn’t make sense to release it, but it was different now.

But now, the Blue Spirit Breathing Technique has already spread out. Thinking about it, someone in Yangcheng would definitely try to cultivate, but the problem is that because of Lin Tuo’s absorbtion last time, the Ether concentration above Yangcheng had not recovered.

It was still in a low state.

In other words, the Ether in the Yangcheng area was dry and depleted.

This was obviously not conducive to people’s practice.

If the environment of Yangcheng was too normal, ordinary people would be very slow when they try to cultivate.

Based on the information given by the Evolving Sandbox Table, Lin Tuo knew that under normal circumstances it was very inefficient to meditate, breathe, and spend a long time practicing to absorb Ether in the world.

Except for a few special individuals, most people can’t sense the Ether in the air.

For your average citizen, just sensing the existence of Ether was already a threshold.

What’s more, Yangcheng’s Ether was below normal.

Even more so because of Lin Tuo’s absorbtion.

Therefore, if he ignored it, most people would probably try it once or twice for a few days out of curiosity, only to find no effect and give up.

In that case, Lin Tuo’s plan to test and implement the evolution of all mankind would not work.

‘At least, in the initial stage, I must find a way to make people realize as soon as possible that the Blue Spirit Breathing Technique is real and effective.‘

Lin Tuo said to himself.

The easiest and most blunt way to do this was to forcibly increase the Ether concentration in the Yangcheng area.

‘If I pour Ether through the sand table into Yangcheng, will there be loss?‘

Lin Tuo asked softly.

The next second, a piece of information was automatically inserted into his mind.

There would still be a certain degree of loss in injecting Ether using the sand table as a medium, but compared to absorbing it, the loss was much smaller.

When he got this answer, Lin Tuo was sure that this idea was a good idea.

“Give five hundred points of Ether back to Yangcheng.”

Although he did have an other option, which was to save up to 1,000 points and buy the observation range increase… Lin Tuo pondered and felt that it was not necessary for the time being.

1,000 points could only be exchanged for 10,000 square kilometers.

In other words, the urban area next to Yangcheng could be included in the sand table.

In this case, simply expanding the scope of observation is of little value.

He made up his mind.

After closing the Mall page, Lin Tuo switched the sand table back to Observation Mode.

Immediately, he looked at Yangcheng. He executed the breathing method in reverse, puffing up his mouth, and slowly spitting out wisps of blue and white strands towards the sand table.

…

In the evening.

When the sun was slowly sinking to the west, and wisps of warm light spread from the western horizon, cars and figures gradually increased on the streets of Yangcheng.

The company where Lin Tuo resigned.

It was time to get off work.

“Brother Li, let’s go together?”

“No, I haven’t finished this yet, so please go back first.”

“…All right, have a nice weekend.”

“You too.”

After saying goodbyes, Li Tai let out a sigh and watched his colleagues leave.

When the office was empty, he got up slowly and confirmed that there was no one. Then he eturned to my desk like a thief and clicked on the picture in his favorites folder on the computer.

As a department manager, Li Tai had a milder personality.

In addition, the atmosphere in the company was relatively relaxed, so he had always had no pretensions and had a good relationship with colleagues, otherwise the company group chat would not be so active.

It’s just that after several years of high-intensity work, he would inevitably get sick.

His cervical spine is somewhat misaligned, and the only thing that helps is medicine.

In the morning, a group of young people in the company talked about morning matters and discussed trying to cultivate. He didn’t interrupt, but he also silently wrote down and grew curious.

After all, the notion of practicing martial arts to strengthen the body was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

If the exercise was really effective, chances are it would be good for your body after practice.

‘I’ll just try it, what’s the worst that could happen…I‘ll just try it, what’s the worst that could happen…‘

Muttering softly, Li Tai pushed his glasses up, carefully reading the photo that appeared on the computer:

“Blue Spirit Breathing Teachnique.”

“The first step… adjust your sitting posture to…”

In order to facilitate people’s learning, Lin Tuo wrote as concisely as possible, plus the exercises themselves were not complicated, so after reading it once, Li Tai understood.

Putting the cushions on the seat on the ground, Li Tai faced the window and made an awkward meditating posture.

Then he closed his eyes, beginning to visualize the mind according to the breathing technique and slowly he adjusted his breathing pattern.

Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale.

At first, it was difficult for him to adapt.

After all, it was not easy for humans to adjust their natural breathing rhythm, but slowly, he got used to it.

The glow of the setting sun gradually dimmed.

In the office, it was quiet.

The breeze swayed the decorative plants. Li Tai’s breathing gradually entered a certain rhythm, and his whole person sank into an unspeakable state.

…

At the same time.

In a certain residential area, in a certain room in Yangcheng.

Zhou Mo’s best friend, a girl named Jiang Yishan opened the bathroom door.

While wiping her hair with a towel, she walked into the bedroom, picked up ther phone, and fixed her gaze on the crazy exercise.

‘Should I try it?‘

With a thought in her mind, Jiang Yishan curled up her hair.

She scanned the content for a few moments and sat down on the yoga mat on the ground.

After adjusting her breathing, she soon succeeded in meditating.

Immediately, she saw a trace of blue and white breath that ordinary people could not detect slowly falling from the sky, like a long silk thread, pouring into her mouth and nose.

Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Inhale.

…

The red sun was sinking, the sky gradually dimmed, Yangcheng was shining brightly and entered the night.

It seems that it was no different from usual.

However, in many corners of the city, and even in the countryside on the edge of the city.

Some people, avoiding the sight of the crowd, cross-legged on the ground, began to practice the “Blue Spirit Breathing Technique”.

…

Li Shanwu Hall, in the study.

Lin Tuo quietly overlooked the city in the sand table. With the help of the Evolving Sandbox Table, he could clearly see the floating Ether.

At this moment, the Ether above the city almost merged into a cloud.

If you observed carefully, you would find that there were more subtle wisps of green and white air, slowly falling, travelling through the air and connecting to the points in the city.

Like countless threads.

One end was connected to a cloud of Ether, the other was connected to ordinary people who were practicing.

‘Hmm…‘

After looking at it for a while, Lin Tuo suddenly discovered that among the countless threads, there were a few that were extraordinarily thick and thick.

‘Could it be that this is the difference of talents? Different talents have different efficiency in cultivation? The thicker the thread, the higher the talents of the connected individuals?‘

Lin Tuo had a clear understanding in his heart but he hesitated for a while. He stretched out his hand to disturb the Ether cloud and interfered with its concentration distribution. Forcibly increasing the concentration of Ether around talented people.

Since it was necessary to make people aware of the value of the breathing technique as soon as possible and attract more people to practice, then the most practical method was to quickly set up a few “examples”.

Those with higher talents were obviously most suitable.

Lin Tuo sighed, silently reciting a classic from “Lao Tzu”, mocking himself.

“The ancients are not deceived by me.”
