My Arms Can Turn into Blades-Chapter 262 - 188: If the Church Can Write, Why Can’t the Celestial Strategy Mansion?

However, most of them are just in name, maybe they still have some family wealth, after all, they have quite a lot of ancient objects... but there is no cultivation scheme or mysterious talismans that can truly set them apart from ordinary empowerers."

"I remember when I first joined the Celestial Strategy Mansion, some people attempted to recreate the glory of the past, including a talisman game that resembled the church system, but they all ended in failure. They tried talisman paper, text, symbols, mantras, seals, everything, but it all ended in just monkey tricks.

So soon, those people gave up."

Chen Lusi: "..."

He remembered, during the monkey incident, Xia Yue also mentioned... there are no more Celestial Masters in the country now.

Wu You concluded, "So, it's not that we don't want to recreate it, but that we can't."

"Then why was there a break in continuity?"

Chen Lusi was slightly curious, "And besides Daoism, is there no other alternative?"

"Why the break in continuity is not something that members at my level can understand, you probably need to ask someone like Ji Xin or Xia Yue."

Wu You shrugged and continued, "As for other alternative schemes, there actually is one, but it's even less reliable than those Celestial Masters' 'recreating past glory.'"

"Why?"

"Because this scheme requires an emperor with divinely granted sovereignty."

"..."

"According to records, the internal dynasties of the old times seemed to have a similar game, relying on the divine system of national sacrifices, which is the heaven worshiped by imperial rulers, the so-called Emperor Haotian, to create 'foolproof fixed techniques' that can be thrown and released.

But this method has also been lost, and even if it weren't...we certainly can't retrace old paths and artificially create an emperor to worship heaven, right? So it's simply impossible."

Chen Lusi was silent for a moment upon hearing this, and then glanced at the sheepskin paper in his hand and nodded, "I understand."

This way, it truly seems difficult.

"Well, Chen Lusi, I'm actually giving you this sheepskin paper, not to have you recreate it."

At this moment,

Zhou Jian, who was beside Wu You, suddenly laughed awkwardly and explained, "I just wanted you to take a look at it, you don't have to feel pressured... Honestly, we don't even dare to think, let alone talismans, if 'cutting-edge' weapons could complete an iteration, that would already be a significant progress! It's no less powerful than talismans."

Chen Lusi shook his head, "I just suddenly thought of it and found it somewhat interesting."

"Hmm."

Zhou Jian replied with a sound, then after thinking for a while, asked, "How is your advancement going?"

"It seems to have condensed into a prototype, but it hasn't fully taken shape yet."

"Then continue."

Zhou Jian nodded and didn't say anything more.

Chen Lusi also put away the sheepskin paper, intending to set it aside for now.

Zhou Jian and Wu You left.

Chen Lusi then turned around, searched for a bit, and then walked towards Xia Panqiu, intending to fulfill yesterday's promise.

Yesterday, Chen Lusi promised her to feed her a spirit ball to help her advance, but the location was not at her home, but in the gourd.

On the other side.

Xia Panqiu was standing in front of Shu Li, saying something.

Before Chen Lusi could approach, the two of them noticed him and looked up together.

"Xia Panqiu, about..."

Chen Lusi came to their side and was just about to speak.

"No."

Xia Panqiu took a deep breath, suddenly reached out and tightly grabbed Shu Li's twin pigtails, interrupting, "Not in the gourd, if you're unwilling, then feed me in the elevator..."

Shu Li: "..."

Chen Lusi: "..."

...

In the following days.

Chen Lusi did not advance.

Although the prototype of the stone in his heart had condensed, he didn't know what went wrong.

After the prototype had condensed.

In the following days, nothing happened.

It was as if it was stuck.

And as the days passed.

Kunlun had already expedited the production of a new batch of 'cutting-edge' weapons.

Everything was ready, just waiting for Chen Lusi to arrive.

But Chen Lusi still didn't come.

This made Luo Mountain very anxious.

"Chen Lusi! Damn it, get Chen Lusi here now! Otherwise, I'll fight with you!"

On June 20th.

At the Celestial Strategy Mansion Headquarters.

Early in the morning.

Luo Mountain grabbed Li Zheng's collar and shouted.

Looking at the seemingly irrational head of Kunlun before him, Li Zheng couldn't help but sigh.

Damn.

... Is it really that necessary?
