Chapter 255: The Origin God Sharing Society
Golden Core is a Star, and You Call This Cultivation?
"Sharing?" Qi Yuan was surprised.
This was a term he had taught the Great Sun Flame Emperor. Now, the Great Sun Flame Emperor brought it up, clearly having come prepared.
"Your proposal is interesting... but how do we get people to share?" Qi Yuan raised the key point.
As the platform for resource sharing, he could openly take advantage of others' resources, but there needed to be a reason for others to share.
"Many sects might be unwilling to reveal their core techniques," the Ice Mountain Queen added.
For some ancient sects, their techniques were their foundation. These inherited techniques couldn't be easily shown to outsiders. If they were leaked and enemies discovered their weaknesses, it could spell disaster, possibly even annihilation.
That's why major sects had strict rules prohibiting the spread of their secret techniques. The techniques Qi Yuan had given to Jiang Lingsu at Seven Color Peak werenât secret to the Shen Guang Sect, so there were no such concerns.
"Getting a sect to hand over their techniques will be extremely difficult unless there's a significant benefit, or theyâre forced to," Rogue Immortal also suggested.
With Qi Yuan's power, he could indeed use force to make some sects hand over their techniques. But he couldnât possibly force every sect in Canglan Realm to complyâhe'd exhaust himself, and it would be very inefficient, wasting time.
"So, we need a reason, a reason that would make those sects willing to hand over their techniques. Origin Heavenly Sovereign, you have many techniques, donât you? You could upload those you have acquired and establish a point system based on the rarity of each technique. Anyone who wants to view your techniques would first need to upload new ones to earn points to exchange. If you have high-level techniques, you could attract many sects to upload their non-secret techniques. For you, this would result in a massive influx of techniques," the Great Sun Flame Emperor explained his plan in full.
Qi Yuan nodded. "This approach could indeed yield many techniques, but... my appetite is too large."
It wasnât that Qi Yuan was overly greedy, but the Golden Core chapter of the was a bottomless pit. A star might be powerful in the Canglan Realm, but on the scale of the universe, a star was less than a drop in the ocean.
To devour the entire universe, the Golden Core chapter of the had a long way to go, and more techniques were always better.
"Unfortunately, I canât go to the Upper Realm right now, or else..." Qi Yuan looked expectant.
The techniques he had obtained from Shen Wushen had made him quite rich. He was also eagerly awaiting what new techniques Shen Wushen might bring from the Upper Realm this time.
Last time, he had received a divine technique from Shen Wushen, which couldnât be passed on to others. Otherwise, if he uploaded that divine technique, it would certainly cause a sensation in the Canglan Realm. After all, there were no divine techniques in the Canglan Realm; the highest level was only heavenly techniques. If he and the Great Sun Flame Emperor established a sharing organization and promoted it with a divine technique, it would surely attract many people.
Shen Wushen, Iâm counting on you, Qi Yuan thought.
"Just sharing will make it difficult to obtain a large number of techniques; we need a guiding principle," the Ice Mountain Queen said.
"I know, we need a catchy slogan. How about, 'Make Canglan Great Again'? What do you think?" Qi Yuan asked.
This time, Qi Yuan borrowed an idea from someone else.
"Thatâs a bit vague," Rogue Immortal said with an awkward smile. What did it matter to them if Canglan Realm was great or not?
"Indeed," Qi Yuan was disappointed and started thinking more seriously.
"The Great Tribulation is approaching, and all the hidden sovereigns and major powers are focused on their own survival. No one cares whether Canglan Realm is great," the Great Sun Flame Emperor said solemnly.
As Qi Yuan rubbed the teacup in his hand, his eyes lit up. "Iâve got itâIâve thought of a great slogan!"
"What slogan?"
The Great Sun Flame Emperor, Ice Mountain Queen, and Rogue Immortal all looked at Qi Yuan expectantly.
Qi Yuan looked serious and declared, "Techniques... are poisonous!"
"What?"
The three of them were stunned.
Especially the Ice Mountain Queen. "What techniques are poisonous?"
"All techniques in the Canglan Realm... are poisonous. The techniques you practice, even your Dao techniques, are poisonous. Once you practice them, youâll be trapped in the Canglan Realm and become food," Qi Yuan revealed what he had seen to the Divine Flower Four Sovereigns. This time, he didnât hide anything because he was strong enough now. Unless directly faced with the Great Tribulation, he could pretty much do as he pleased in the Canglan Realm.
"What?"
The three of them were shocked.
This was the first time they had heard such a thing.
"Perhaps itâs due to the Great Tribulation that techniques became poisonous. Long ago, a peerless prodigy challenged the Great Tribulation and perished. I speculate that there were two reasons for his demise: first, the Great Tribulation summoned too many powerful beings; second, his technique had a flaw and was naturally restrained. Even though he was unparalleled, he still died tragically," Qi Yuan explained, combining what the Ascending Heaven Pavilion Master had told him with his own reasoning.
"By practicing the poisonous techniques of the Canglan Realm, Yin Gods canât travel the void, explore other realms, or ascend to the Upper Realm; they can only become food," the Great Sun Flame Emperor turned pale.
Qi Yuanâs words struck them like a thunderbolt.
The Ice Mountain Queen was also stunned, struggling to accept this reality.
"Origin Heavenly Sovereign... is what you said true?" Rogue Immortal asked weakly.
"Yes, itâs true. I have no reason to lie to you. My technique is self-created, so thereâs no problem with it, and I wonât become food. But Iâve tried it; not everyone is as talented as I am. When they create their own techniques, they also become poisonous," Qi Yuan said seriously.
"If thatâs the case, then if I cultivate to Yin God, I might just become food for someone else? If so, itâs better not to cultivate!" the Ice Mountain Queen said angrily, now accepting the reality.
"Thereâs no need to be so angry. Even if you didnât know techniques were poisonous, would the Great Tribulation not still exist?" Qi Yuan reassured them.
The Divine Flower Four Sovereigns showed wry smiles.
Qi Yuan had a point.
So what if they knew techniques were poisonous? Would that change the fact that they couldnât deal with the Great Tribulation?
When the Great Tribulation began, Canglan Realm would be devastated.
"Origin Heavenly Sovereign, do you think I should change techniques now while I still can?" Rogue Immortal asked weakly.
Being the weakest among them, still at the Yuan Dan stage, he thought he might have a chance to switch techniques.
The Ice Mountain Queen and Great Sun Flame Emperor also looked to Qi Yuan, hoping for a solution.
But Qi Yuan shook his head. "Thereâs no need. Youâre not going to fight the Great Tribulation, so why bother?"
Qi Yuan was telling the truth.
The Canglan Realm had the potential to produce Yang Gods.
The poisonous nature of the techniques might be intended to make it easier to harvest resources and to prevent peerless prodigies from disrupting the balance of the Canglan Realm.
Qi Yuan could confidently say that Rogue Immortal didnât even qualify to become food.
"Soon, Iâll be able to easily destroy the Great Tribulation by myself. Once the Great Tribulation is dead, the problem with the techniques will be resolved," Qi Yuan said confidently.
Back when he was only at the Yuan Dan stage, he was quite fearful of the Great Tribulation. But now, he was confident, though not completely certain. After all, if the Great Tribulation summoned a powerful Yang God, his Nascent Souls might not be fully awakened to handle it.
"So, just act as if nothing happened and keep cultivating. All you have to do is wait until Iâm strong enough to deal with the Great Tribulation!" Qi Yuan declared boldly.
Rogue Immortal felt a deep sense of security and said excitedly, "Iâm great at watching and waiting!"
"When you destroy the Great Tribulation, Iâll play the suona for you!" the Great Sun Flame Emperor added.
The Ice Mountain Queen looked at Qi Yuan with admiration. "Bold and powerful!"
"Do you think if I spread the word that techniques are poisonous and then offer some non-poisonous techniques, it would cause an uproar and attract many sects to share their techniques?" Qi Yuan asked enthusiastically.
The non-poisonous techniques would first include the though he wouldnât easily share that. However, the techniques Shen Wushen had brought were almost all non-poisonous.
The Great Sun Flame Emperor nodded. "Iâd be interested in such techniques. I might not switch, but Iâd want my descendants to have access to them. So if such techniques appeared, they would definitely be highly sought after."
"If it were me, Iâd make sure to get my hands on such techniques, even if I couldnât practice them myself," the Ice Mountain Queen agreed.
Qi Yuan was thrilled. "We have the slogan, the plan, and the marketâeverything we need. Now we just need to implement it."
"We still need a name!" Rogue Immortal said excitedly. "We need to name the organization weâre creating!"
"How about... the Coexistence Society?" Qi Yuan suggested.
"Thatâs too plain!" The Ice Mountain Queen was the first to reject it.
"How about the Origin God Society?" Rogue Immortal proposed eagerly.
"I like it!" The Great Sun Flame Emperor agreed.
"No..." Qi Yuan quickly vetoed the idea.
If he named the organization the Origin God Society, wouldnât that make him look like a poser?
"This name is perfect," the Ice Mountain Queen said with a mischievous smile.
Though she didnât know why Qi Yuan resisted, she felt that if he did, it must be a good name.
"Rogue Immortal rarely has a good idea; letâs go with it," the Ice Mountain Queen pushed.
The Great Sun Flame Emperor grinned. "The word 'Origin' represents you, Origin Heavenly Sovereign, and 'God' represents your power and status. If you donât like Origin God Society, how about God Origin Society?"
God Origin? God Ape?
"No, letâs call it the Origin God Sharing Society," Qi Yuan relented, adding two more words as his final stand.
After all, it was just a name for an organization. It didnât matter too much.
Rogue Immortal looked pleased, feeling a sense of accomplishment. "If one day the Origin God Society becomes the most powerful organization in Canglan Realm, I can tell my descendants that I named it!"
Qi Yuan rolled his eyes at Rogue Immortal.
The group discussed for another half an hour at the Wangxian Pavilion before finalizing the development plan for the Origin God Sharing Society.
The Great Sun Flame Emperorâs grandfather, Feng Jun, would be in charge of managing it. After all, without the strength of a Yin God, managing such an organization could lead to many problems.
The Great Sun Flame Emperor and Rogue Immortal would also contribute to the Origin God Sharing Society. The usually lazy Ice Mountain Queen would take on a consultant role, overseeing recruitment from the sects near her homeland.
The development of the Origin God Sharing Society would follow two paths.
The first was through the Divine Flower Societyâs forum, where they would announce the slogan that techniques were poisonous and that everyone should unite against the Great Tribulation.
The second path involved leveraging the Dao-Seeking Palace to build the societyâs reputation.
Even the best services need exposure.
No matter how competitive the Origin God Sharing Society was, it would be useless if no one knew about it.
"Iâll post the announcement first, and then weâll visit your grandfather," Qi Yuan said to the Great Sun Flame Emperor.
With the Origin God Sharing Societyâs foundation laid, Qi Yuan was ready to announce that techniques were poisonous at the Divine Flower Society and then visit the Great Sun Flame Emperorâs grandfather, Feng Jun, to have him manage the society.
At this point, Qi Yuan switched to another account, using the Blood-Robed Sword God alias. After some thought, he began drafting a post.
"A Shocking Discovery in Canglan Realm: The Techniques We Practice Are Full of Traps!"
"I, Blood-Robed Sword God, leader of the Blood-Robed Alliance, am risking my life to reveal a terrifying truth that concerns the safety of all cultivators in Canglan Realm.
"Techniques are poisonous! "The techniques weâve been practicing are toxic, and as our strength grows, we will gradually become food for certain beings.
"What kind of conspiracy is this? I canât even begin to imagine...
"To address this issue, Iâve joined forces with like-minded individuals to establish the Origin God Sharing Society.
"In the Origin God Sharing Society, there are non-poisonous techniques..."
Crafting such a post was no challenge for Qi Yuan.
First, grab attention with a shocking headline, create a sense of fear, present the problem, then offer a solution with concrete actions.
The solution was the establishment of the Origin God Sharing Society, attracting people to upload their techniques in exchange for non-poisonous ones.
Finally, Qi Yuan mentioned the approximate launch time of the Origin God Sharing Society, inviting everyone to join.
In closing, Qi Yuan wrote:
"Donât panic; I, Blood-Robed Sword God, will lead the way and pledge my life to defend Canglan Realm!"
This post stirred up a storm as soon as it was published.
"Is this real?" SÑará´h the NôvelÆire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Techniques are poisonous? Why havenât I noticed anything?"
"Becoming food? Thatâs terrifying! If this is true, isnât Canglan Realm just a pig farm?"
"Thatâs nonsense, right?"
"Hey, donât talk nonsense... Oh, itâs Blood-Robed Sword God speaking. Heâs right; techniques are poisonous!"
"Blood-Robed Sword God is an Yin God Sovereign. If heâs saying this, could it be true?"
"How can techniques be poisonous!"
Hundreds and thousands of Divine Flower Society members saw the post and were shocked, questioning its authenticity.
If anyone else had said it, they wouldnât have believed it. But this was the Blood-Robed Sword God, an Yin God Sovereignâwould he lie to them? And for what reason?
