Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality-Chapter 1028 - 517: You Really Have Put On Some Weight Lately_2

After speaking, he regretted it in his heart, feeling like he might not have checked the almanac before going out today, wondering how he ended up in such situations repeatedly.

Galsa quickly nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, yes, we're just here to check on Miss Xia's translation progress."

Upon hearing the term "Mistress," Lin Beichen frowned and corrected, "I've already said, don't call her Mistress!"

He instinctively glanced at Xia Luyao, worried that she might get upset.

But unexpectedly, Xia Luyao had no reaction to this, seeming not to mind.

Galsa scratched his head in confusion, thinking: They clearly look like a couple. But a master's order can't be disobeyed, so he just awkwardly laughed, not daring to call wrongly again.

"Well, I'm just here to see Ms. Xia's translation progress. I'm eager to learn the Daoist Heart Method," Galsa had an expression of longing for knowledge.

Seeing their eager expressions, although Lin Beichen didn't quite understand, he felt it was good that his disciples were keen to learn, as it helped in spreading the Daoist Sect.

"Once the translation is done, just take it to be printed," Lin Beichen said to Galsa.

Galsa nodded with a smile, "Okay, Master, I'm not in a hurry. Ms. Xia, don't overwork yourself."

He thought to himself: Why is Master so unpredictable? He just said Ms. Xia isn't the Mistress and now shows such concern for her.

Lin Beichen noticed Galsa's thoughts but was too lazy to correct him, waving his hand for him to leave.

Watching the two leaving in a hurry, Lin Beichen pressed his fingers against his forehead helplessly.

Turning to Xia Luyao, he explained, "They might have misunderstood just now, don't mind it."

Xia Luyao shook her head, pretending not to care, "I know, I don't mind."

After speaking, she awkwardly shifted her gaze elsewhere.

Xia Luyao then continued her translation work, with Lin Beichen staying by her side.

Once finished, they carefully proofread it again before sending it to Galsa for printing.

With everything ready, they focused on preparing for the Daoist promotion conference the next day.

After a whole night of rush work, Galsa had thousands of Daoist entry manuals printed.

At nine o'clock the next morning, the islanders gathered at Vilana Island's central square.

They were filled with curiosity and anticipation for this Daoist promotion conference.

Lin Beichen and his team observed the scene from a building in the square.

Galsa confidently expressed his intention to promote the mystique of the Daoist Sect and attract more followers.

Lin Beichen nodded in satisfaction at the dense crowd outside.

If all these islanders became his followers, his Faith Value would surely skyrocket.

He encouraged Galsa to promote Daoist culture.

Flame exclaimed, "Lin Beichen, you're amazing! Who would've thought this mission would gain you so many disciples. It seems the Daoist Sect will flourish in your hands!"

Flame smiled at Lin Beichen, eyes showing appreciation.

Lin Beichen simply smiled lightly at this; his goal was to make the Daoist Sect flourish and have more people believe in it. He was also looking forward to that day in his heart.

Just then, a familiar system notification sounded in Lin Beichen's ears.

"Ding! Faith Value +300!"

"Ding! Faith Value +500!"

The continuous notifications of Faith Value increase sounded in his ears, and though each increment wasn't much, they added up to a considerable amount.

After a quick calculation, Lin Beichen realized these added Faith Values already totaled several tens of thousands.

He couldn't help but furrow his brow, puzzled about why the Faith Values started increasing even before the Daoist promotion conference began.

These Faith Values clearly weren't from the islanders at the square, so where were they coming from?

Xia Luyao noticed Lin Beichen's odd expression and asked concernedly, "Lin Beichen, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

Lin Beichen turned to look at her, shaking his head with a smile, "It's nothing, don't worry."

This was something he couldn't explain, and Faith Value increase was a good thing for him. Since he couldn't figure it out, there was no point in dwelling on it.

Perhaps the system had some minor glitch.

Just as Lin Beichen was about to give up on pondering the matter, his phone suddenly rang.

Seeing the caller ID, it was an unfamiliar international number.

Lin Beichen frowned, wondering if it might be a telemarketing call.

But then he thought, surely a scammer wouldn't go through the trouble of making an international call to scam, right?

So, he answered the call.

"Hello?"

A cheerful voice immediately came through the line, "Hello, Master, it's me!"

Upon hearing this title, Lin Beichen instinctively thought it was Galsa, but looking up, he saw Galsa was on stage giving the opening speech.

"Who is this?" Lin Beichen asked in confusion.

"Master, don't you remember me? I am your disciple!"

The voice on the other end sounded a bit aggrieved, unable to believe Lin Beichen had forgotten him so quickly.

Recognizing the familiar voice, after a brief recall, Lin Beichen understood; it turned out to be that guy!

"Oh, it's you, what are you calling me for all of a sudden?" Lin Beichen asked indifferently.

Upon recognizing him, Ao Du immediately laughed happily, "Yes, yes, yes, Master, it's me! Long time no see, how have you been?"

Lin Beichen rolled his eyes helplessly, "Old man? Am I that old?"

Ao Du quickly explained, "No, no, Master, you're still young. I just said it to show some respect."

"Alright, alright, cut the nonsense. What do you need from me?" Lin Beichen directly asked.

Ao Du chuckled and replied slowly, "Master, you told me before not to disturb you, lest it interrupts your cultivation. You said I could only contact you once a month at most."

"Since you've been back in Huaxia for a month, I've been timing to check in with you."

During this time, he had many Daoist-related questions he wanted to consult Lin Beichen about, but since he had promised not to disturb him lightly, he restrained himself from calling earlier.

Now that a month had passed, he couldn't wait to call and ask.

After hearing Ao Du's words, Lin Beichen smiled lightly.

This Ao Du really was quite obedient.

Thus, he generously said, "Alright, alright, ask your questions quickly."

Upon hearing this, Ao Du was delighted and quickly asked, "Master, I want to ask you, in the manual you gave me, what does the part about 'when one's true spirit falls into Qian Palace, it separates the soul from the spirit, and the soul is in the heart of heaven, light and clear as the Qi naturally derives from the great void, coming to be the same shape as the original being' mean?"

After listening, Lin Beichen couldn't help but comment, "I didn't expect you to learn so fast, you're already at this point."

Ao Du was a bit embarrassed by the praise, "It's all thanks to the manual you gave me, Master."

He continued, "Later I made my subordinates stop the war and focus on Cultivation with the manual you gave me, specially going into seclusion for a while to focus on my training."

"I just came out of seclusion and called you to ask about my problems during seclusion. Moreover, after this period of Cultivation, I've seen some achievements in Daoist Skill. Just now I even showed off to my subordinates."

"At first, they heard I'd joined the Huaxia Daoist Sect, and although they didn't dare say anything, they followed my orders to believe in the Daoist Sect and revered Huaxia Civilization, but it wasn't from the bottom of their hearts."

"But after seeing my Cultivation achievements today, they were all amazed, wide-eyed, and clamoring to practice the Daoist Magical Techniques with me."

After listening to Ao Du's long-winded speech, Lin Beichen suddenly realized that the recent spike in Faith Values wasn't a system bug but resulted from Ao Du's subordinates increasing their belief after seeing Ao Du's Daoist Skill.
