Chapter 521: Chapter 34 Holy Object_3
They didn’t understand what had happened, but they could sense that the book was no ordinary object.
It emitted an aura of purity and sanctity.
It seemed to benefit their own advancement.
Had it not been for the force of the Datong officials, they might have already made a move to snatch it.
And having received the message, Huangtian also quickly arrived via the Teleportation Array.
“Li Xueqian, what happened?”
“I’m saying, I don’t know either. Would you believe me, Prime Minister?”
Li Xueqian really didn’t know.
He had just concluded his retreat and was planning to submit “Energy Foundation” in hopes of receiving comments from the Honorary Dean.
But before he could even leave, the event behind him unfolded.
Huangtian, of course, believed him, but there had to be an explanation for the incident.
After all, it involved a tremendous thunderbolt in a crowded area, and there had to be an explanation.
“This is going to be troublesome…”
For a moment, Huangtian also didn’t know what to do.
However, at this time, Wang Sheng sensed the Planet Will appearing beside Li Xueqian.
Clearly, the World Will esteemed “Saints” even more than Wang Sheng had imagined.
Li Xueqian was also troubled, but at that moment, he heard a kind voice in his mind, explaining the reason to him.
For some reason, he readily believed this explanation.
In a daze, he understood what had happened.
His expression was complex; he was confident in his own achievements, but he had never thought it would come to such a degree.
“Prime Minister, I think I understand what’s going on!”
Huangtian looked up, filled with doubt. He had just said he didn’t know, so how could he know after just a short while?
Li Xueqian was a Spirit Cultivator, capable of communicating with spiritual power, through which he relayed the explanation.
“Are you telling the truth? Can you confirm the voice is trustworthy?”
Li Xueqian hesitated for a while and then said, “It should be!”
“Do you know the identity of that voice?”
The matters of the Saint and Holy Object were too important for Huangtian to ignore.
Again, Li Xueqian hesitated, then firmed his gaze and said, “I don’t know the identity, but it gives me a feeling of a mother.”
“A mother?” Not having experienced it himself, Huangtian could only find it absurd.
But at this moment, a familiar voice said, “What Li Xueqian has said is true, there’s no need for doubt.”
“Sir!”
“Dean!”
Li Xueqian and Huangtian both recognized the newcomer.
Wang Sheng nodded and then looked at the strong individuals still rushing to the scene.
“Disperse, all of you. This is not an opportunity, and even if it were, it is not something you can covet.”
Yan Tian was the first to leave, even though he had advanced further in his original realm, the fear of being killed that day was still there.
It was not something he could resist.
Other well-informed people also left without hesitation.
However, a few remained, newcomers who had heard the rumors but had not witnessed them themselves, and they were skeptical.
One of them spoke arrogantly, “Whether it’s an opportunity or not is not for you…”
But he cut off mid-sentence, struck heavily, instantly flying off at high speed, “chasing” after Yan Tian who had left first, along with the others who had stayed.
“Foolishness.” Yan Tian shook his head, without a trace of sympathy.
Witnessing all this, Huangtian and Li Xueqian felt no sympathy either.
His focus was still on the “Holy Object.”
“Sir, are you saying what Li Xueqian said is true?”
“Yes, Li Xueqian has written something extraordinary!”
With a wave of his hand, Wang Sheng had the “Holy Object” book, “Energy Foundation,” in his grasp.
He began to read it right away.
“Energy Foundation” was in fact the complete version of the previously mentioned “Energy Introduction,” with more detailed content, explaining everything from the term energy to its utilization.
“No wonder it became a Holy Object.”
After finishing, Wang Sheng understood.
What he had always hoped for had succeeded; the result of guiding Li Xueqian toward scientific thinking had become evident. With the existence of “Energy Foundation,” as long as it was promoted, a powerful technological civilization could be created.
As the World Will had said, this was something that could change the world. It might not be evident immediately, but in the long term, it could greatly enhance the foundations of a civilization.
Seeing that Wang Sheng had finished reading the book, Li Xueqian finally spoke, “Dean, is my book… truly worthy of being a Holy Object?”
“Whether it’s worthy or not is not up to me to decide; it’s the results that will tell.”
If “Energy Foundation” showed its effectiveness, no one could deny its value, and besides—
“Don’t you have confidence in your own book?”
“Of course, I do.” If he didn’t have confidence, he wouldn’t expect to solve the problems of Cultivation Techniques after his retreat, but, “I just didn’t expect it to lead to such a turn of events.”
“Rest assured, now that it has happened, don’t think too much about it. It’s both a reward and a spur; it depends on how you see it.”
When a book merges with destiny, it becomes a Holy Object.
Li Xueqian himself was naturally favored by destiny, and the benefits wouldn’t be small.
“I’ll continue to work hard.” Perhaps it was the spur mentioned by Wang Sheng that calmed Li Xueqian considerably.
Huangtian also spoke up, “Sir, the voice that Li Xueqian heard just now…”
As the head of a nation, he had to consider the unknown.
“No worries, Li Xueqian’s sensation is real; it might well be a mother, right?” Wang Sheng didn’t elaborate. Since the Planet Will itself hadn’t commented, he naturally wouldn’t presume to speak out of turn.
Seeing that his mentor had said so, Huangtian too calmed down.
