Night's Nomenclature
Chapter 308: The Method of Investiture

When someone experiences social death, no lie is innocent.

Jiang Xue was secretly amused when Boss said he wouldn’t move. Qing Chen clearly wanted to move there; it was just Boss who refused.

Does it matter to me, Qing Chen, whether Boss moves or not?

Now, Jiang Xue particularly enjoyed watching Qing Chen lie so solemnly.

But she didn’t expect that the Little Rich Woman’s lie was exactly the same as Boss’s.

Li Tongyun would definitely move with Jiang Xue, but the ‘Little Rich Woman’ couldn’t move. If she did, she would first receive a beating…

Fortunately, Qing Chen had left a room for each of them in the villa, so Xiao Tongyun wouldn’t be discovered when participating in the group chat.

Liu Dezhu: “Little Rich Woman, why won’t you move?”

Little Rich Woman: “I’m not a native of Luo City. When I was traveling, I accidentally became a Time Traveler, so I can’t move.”

Liu Dezhu: “You could settle in Luo City. Everyone is here, and Boss is also from Luo City.”

Little Rich Woman: “Definitely, in the future!”

Liu Dezhu asked again: “Oh, doesn’t our Daybreak have a Big Rich Man? Will she move?”

Big Rich Woman: “Mind your own business.”

Liu Dezhu: …

At this time, Jiang Xue said a little embarrassedly in the Daybreak group: “Um, I’m a little embarrassed, everyone. I’m a divorced single mother, so I’ll have to bring my daughter if I move. But don’t worry, she’s very well-behaved and doesn’t cause trouble; she won’t disturb everyone.”

Qing Chen and Nangeng Chen, who were downstairs, almost laughed themselves silly…

Little Duck: “Is she really well-behaved? If she is, then there’s no problem… Autumn Snow, feel free to bring her. Boss surely won’t bear to separate you and your daughter.”

Boss: “Yes, bring your daughter. It’s fine.”

Xiao Tongyun, who lived in the second bedroom upstairs, seeing her mother going to such lengths to explain for her, suddenly became worried. If she was discovered in the future, how severe would the beating be?

That night, Qing Chen pushed open Yang Yang’s door alone. Unexpectedly, there was a letter in the crack of the door, written by Zhang Wanfang. The envelope was thick, and it seemed to contain money.

He didn’t look at the letter or take the money; he threw it directly into the trash can.

The gravity chamber’s Force field hadn’t weakened much, but Qing Chen had already been promoted from e-level to the peak of d-level. The gravity chamber wasn’t very useful to him anymore.

Perhaps Yang Yang didn’t expect Qing Chen to advance so quickly.

During this period, Qing Chen had two other hidden abilities growing rapidly. One was that his sniper target had moved to 2350 meters, and the other was that he maintained the first section of Breathing Technique. Knight True Qi had begun to spread from his arms and legs to his spine.

He had a high demand for Knight True Qi. On the one hand, the sharpness of Knight True Qi turning everything into a blade was very important, and on the other hand, the quantity was also important.

When Qing Chen went to Xian City this time, he carried playing cards with him, passing through security without any pressure.

If he and his enemy went to a place where weapons couldn’t be carried, then a close-range skill like Autumn Leaf Blade would become a killer move.

But what Qing Chen cared about most now wasn’t Autumn Leaf Blade.

But the Marionette that maintained the connection between him and the puppet after he controlled it.

When he killed Zhang San, he used the line between himself and the puppet to deliver a fatal blow, severing the opponent’s neck.

This made Qing Chen think that if one day he could control many puppets, and the lines of up to fifty meters between them were all as sharp as knives.

Then the host and the puppets could set up a huge net, quickly harvesting the battlefield.

At that time, the invisible Marionette, with the puppets’ figures intertwined, the sharp lines would be extremely deadly.

At one point, Qing Chen believed that this might be the best use of the combination of Marionette and Knight True Qi…

…

…

Countdown 162:00:00.

Sunday, no classes.

At six o’clock in the morning, Liu Dezhu came to knock on the door against the biting cold wind. Today it was Nangeng Chen’s turn to break the wind. The guy looked listless, and didn’t know what he did during the seven days of time travel.

Qing Chen pondered in the back of the team. Would it be too risky to let Nangeng Chen, a naturally frail teenager, take the Knight path?

In the Outer World, after completing all Eight Trials of Life and Death, one would be promoted to a true Knight, directly promoted from an ordinary person to a-level, and wouldn’t have to go through the Trial of Heart.

But in fact, the real danger of the Knight path was still the challenges themselves.

The first one, climbing Qingshan Cliff, a slight misstep would lead to a fall from the cliff. The final desperate leap of one meter, countless people would die at this step.

Eight Trials of Life and Death, challengers must be among the top performers in each sport.

Each one has an extremely high mortality rate.

Therefore, not every member of Daybreak had to take this path. Choosing a few with no potential, letting them cultivate the Cultivation Zhunti Method, could also make them become Daybreak’s Guardians sooner.

Qing Chen glanced at Liu Dezhu, Zhang Tianzhen, and Nangeng Chen, and slowly had new ideas.

After the morning run, he said to the three: “Liu Dezhu, Zhang Tianzhen, Nangeng Chen, you three come inside with me. Xiaoniu, go home first and contact the moving company. Boss asked us to move this afternoon, while we don’t have school, so it’s better to cultivate together.”

Hu Xiaoniu was stunned.

Cultivation?

But why did Qing Chen call away the other three and leave her alone to do the work?

Hu Xiaoniu couldn’t figure it out, but she didn’t say anything: “Okay, understood.”

Now, Boss had the highest position in the Daybreak organization, followed by Qing Chen, and everyone was convinced.

In the room, Qing Chen looked at the three in front of him: “Boss asked me to teach you some new things.”

Zhang Tianzhen curiously asked: “Qing Chen, why didn’t you call Hu Xiaoniu? Did he do something wrong?”

“I don’t know,” Qing Chen shook his head: “Boss gave the instructions, and I didn’t ask why.”

Zhang Tianzhen didn’t speak.

Liu Dezhu asked: “Qing Chen, what are you going to teach us?”

At this time, Qing Chen sat cross-legged on the ground and said: “The method of Cultivation, the orthodox method of Cultivation.”

The three were stunned. Even Nangeng Chen didn’t know that Qing Chen had already mastered other Cultivation methods!

They looked at each other. They had all joined He Xiaoxiao’s group chat. Although Zhang Tianzhen wasn’t in the same group as everyone else, Time Travelers in the group would more or less talk about Cultivation.

They knew very well that although Cultivation methods were rare, as long as they were willing to spend money, they could still find them.

At most, there would be some side effects, and the upper limit would be very low.

“How much do you know about the Cultivation method?” Qing Chen asked.

Liu Dezhu was more interested in this aspect. He said: “I know that many cultivation methods have side effects. It’s said that in the Inner World, there are Cultivation methods that require castration before cultivation…”

Qing Chen thought, he hadn’t heard of this; the cost was indeed a bit high…

He asked: “Anything else?”

Liu Dezhu: “I also heard that there is a cultivation method from a ferocious tiger sect that can reach c-level, but those who cultivate it will become as strong as an ox; there is another method that is particularly evil, after cultivation, the whole body will be covered with hair; there is another method, after cultivation, the intelligence will regress; and another one, after cultivation, they fart all day long, the higher the level, the more and louder the farts…”

Qing Chen thought, this cultivator who farts would have some difficulty in undertaking assassination missions.

Non-orthodox Cultivation methods all use unorthodox methods to obtain power.

There will always be various costs.

However, the Cultivation method with ‘orthodox’ added in front is completely different.

Some people have said that there are no more than five orthodox Cultivation methods in the entire Federation!

Now, such a rare thing was right in front of them.

“Our orthodox Cultivation method is probably unique in the Time Traveler organization, right?” Zhang Tianzhen curiously asked.

“Not necessarily,” Qing Chen shook his head: “I heard that He Jinqiu seems to be in the Hu’s intelligence organization in the Inner World. Legend has it that this organization also has orthodox Cultivation methods. If He Jinqiu is a core member of that organization, then there should be such cultivators in the Nine Provinces.”

Qing Chen said: “Let’s not talk nonsense for now. Follow my breathing rhythm and adjust your breathing rhythm.”

He closed his eyes and began to maintain the first section of Breathing Technique.

But after a few minutes, he was surprised to find that the three people opposite him hadn’t grasped it at all.

Liu Dezhu hesitated and said: “Qing Chen, this breathing rhythm… is very difficult to accurately grasp.”

Qing Chen pondered for a moment. His fingers suddenly touched Nangeng Chen’s wrist pulse, recalling how Li Shutong guided him to perform the Breathing Technique for the first time.

The next moment, when he entered the frequency of the first section of Breathing Technique, the Knight True Qi in his body surged, and Nangeng Chen’s breathing frequency forcibly changed!

It turned out that this was the inherent inheritance method of Breathing Technique itself!

Nangeng Chen’s complexion was initially purplish, then returned to normal.

After ten minutes, this guy seemed to be in a state of meditation, completely immersed in a kind of wonderful consciousness.

Qing Chen was also somewhat surprised. The booklet said that the entry into the Zhunti Method was difficult, and it generally took half a year to truly master it and feel the existence of Qi.

But now, Nangeng Chen’s performance was clearly wrong. Didn’t he master it right away?

Although Qing Chen needed to guide him, this guy had clearly felt the existence of Qi.

He gently tapped Nangeng Chen’s Shen Ting acupoint: “Use your consciousness to guide the generated Qi here. This is the first Bright Points you need to polish. After polishing 81 Bright Points, the first round will be considered complete.”

Qing Chen had never cultivated the Zhunti Method before. He could only teach according to the words in the booklet.

He had already burned the booklet; anyway, with his memory, it didn’t matter whether he had a physical book or not.

Qing Chen looked at Zhang Tianzhen: “Close your eyes.”

He pinched the other person’s wrist and repeated the trick.

But Qing Chen was surprised to find that Zhang Tianzhen also felt the existence of Qi after the first guidance and entered meditation.

Qing Chen tried it on Liu Dezhu unconvinced, and it was the same!

He originally just wanted to try Liu Dezhu to see if he could still cultivate after awakening and injecting Gene Medicine.

As a result, the facts proved that he could.

In other words, Liu Dezhu is now cultivating three meridians simultaneously, will he become the most perverted hexagonal warrior in the b-level in the future?

A hexagonal warrior refers to someone whose agility, defense, endurance, strength, etc. are all full, without any weaknesses.

The boy looked at the three meditating people in front of him, falling into deep doubt. How was it completely different from what was said in the booklet?

If only Nangeng Chen was like this, Qing Chen would have thought that this kid was exceptionally talented.

But since even Liu Dezhu was like this, he would think that his teacher was somewhat exceptionally talented…

No, no, Qing Chen pondered.

What was the difference between the three people in front of him and the author of the booklet in terms of Cultivation?

The fourth section of Breathing Technique!

The difference lies here!

Qing Chen recalled the moment when Li Shutong guided him, and recalled the moment he guided others. It was clearly the Knight True Qi in his body that was influencing everything.

Therefore, the fourth section of Breathing Technique was also a shortcut to inheriting the first three sections of Breathing Technique.

The author, because no one guided him, had difficulty cultivating the first three sections of Breathing Technique, and he also took many detours.

But Qing Chen’s situation was different. Nangeng Chen, Liu Dezhu, and Zhang Tianzhen, even if they wanted to take detours, they couldn’t!

Thinking of this, Qing Chen suddenly had new ideas.

He placed his palm on Liu Dezhu’s Shen Ting acupoint on his head and gently tried to infuse Knight True Qi into it.

Liu Dezhu’s expression was calm and without any abnormalities. Only two lines of tears flowed from the gap in his closed eyelids…

After a while, he opened his eyes and said with tears streaming down his Face^[-]: “Qing Chen, my Shen Ting acupoint Bright Points has been lit up! When you put your hand on my Shen Ting acupoint, I felt a warm current like an ocean pouring in. That warm current was much stronger than my Qi. It only took a few breaths to light up the Shen Ting acupoint.”

Qing Chen was stunned. So the saying of investiture really existed!

Isn’t this the method of investiture? The master helps the disciple open the gate of Cultivation!

Originally, Qing Chen just recalled that the Zhunti Method was a Tibetan Buddhist scripture, and investiture was the most basic and important ceremony in Tibetan Buddhism.

So he tried it.

Who would have thought that this method of investiture really worked.

No wonder they always mentioned investiture in Tibetan Buddhism. It turns out there are real benefits!

However, in the Outer World, no one can break through the world rules between ordinary people and cultivators, so investiture has become a mere ceremony.

Looking at Liu Dezhu’s tearful appearance, he thought that if he didn’t know the effect of Knight True Qi, he would have thought that the other party was moved to tears by him.

Qing Chen nonchalantly asked: “Why are you crying?”

Liu Dezhu wiped his tears: “I don’t know, I just want to cry.”

Qing Chen: …

He didn’t say anything more and squeezed Liu Dezhu’s pulse again to let him meditate.

Next, Qing Chen put his palm on Zhang Tianzhen’s head and infused Knight True Qi into it.

Zhang Tianzhen also burst into tears.

However, Zhang Tianzhen didn’t lose his composure. After he lit up the Shen Ting Bright Points, he continued to close his eyes and meditate, letting the tears flow.

Qing Chen thought, this method of investiture could indeed allow Daybreak members to grow rapidly. The problem was that it would cause everyone to be a little dehydrated…

Of course, there was also a problem that the rapid increase in level might lead to unstable foundations.

But after careful consideration, Qing Chen felt that he only let these three people take on the role of Guardians, and they could first grow up to have the physical fitness of Metahumans, and their foundation could be supplemented later.

Overall, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

After he also gave Nangeng Chen the investiture, he calculated his Knight True Qi.

With his current Knight True Qi reserves and recovery speed, he could help three people light up one Bright Point each in about 4 hours, so it would be 6 Bright Points a day, and 42 in 7 days.

According to the booklet, lighting up 49 Bright Points is a Small Heavenly Cycle, and lighting up 81 is a Great Heavenly Cycle.

Here, Small Heavenly Cycle corresponds to f-level, and Great Heavenly Cycle corresponds to e-level.

With just two time travels, Daybreak would have three more e-level Metahumans?

Facing the impending storm of City 18, e-level Metahumans weren’t top experts, but at least they had some more life-saving capital.

This made Qing Chen’s eyes shine. This investiture thing is just a cheat code opened by the master for the disciple?!

Although he would be a little tired and bitter, Knight True Qi had a new use, which gave Qing Chen the motivation to cultivate the first section of Breathing Technique again.

At noon, Qing Chen slowly said: “Open your eyes, it’s time for lunch.”

The three opened their eyes and looked at each other, their eyes red, but with unconcealable joy.

Zhang Tianzhen stood up and bowed deeply to Qing Chen: “Thank you.”

“No need for that,” Qing Chen also stood up and said: “With your powerful strength, the Daybreak organization can be better. Now it’s Boss and I who protect you. I hope that one day you can also protect this organization.”

Liu Dezhu excitedly said: “Definitely! I felt unfinished when I went to Xian City last time. Boss should let me help fight!”

Qing Chen smiled: “There will be a chance.”

Zhang Tianzhen went upstairs thoughtfully. Everyone would move to Daybreak’s new base in the afternoon.

A new path of Cultivation, a new base, it seemed that everything had hope.

Zhang Tianzhen opened the door, but found Hu Xiaoniu sitting on the sofa in a daze.

Hu Xiaoniu turned her head: “Did you cry? Did Qing Chen beat you guys up?”

Zhang Tianzhen smiled: “What, are you going to help me get revenge?”

Hu Xiaoniu shook her head: “Qing Chen is very measured in his actions. If he beat the three of you, it means that the three of you deserved it.”

Zhang Tianzhen said with a wry smile: “Hey, we are brothers who have been together for many years.”

“Tell me, what did you learn this morning?” Hu Xiaoniu asked.

“Cultivation method,” Zhang Tianzhen said seriously: “It’s a real, orthodox Cultivation method, with no side effects! Moreover, Qing Chen can help us cultivate with the method of investiture. I feel that in at most two more time travels, the three of us will reach e-level.”

“Oh,” Hu Xiaoniu nodded.

“What, you’re not envious,” Zhang Tianzhen chuckled.

Hu Xiaoniu glanced at Zhang Tianzhen: “Do you think I’ve made any mistakes recently?”

“No,” Zhang Tianzhen smiled.

“Then why can’t I cultivate with Qing Chen?” Hu Xiaoniu smiled: “Don’t worry, I know very well that there must be a better path for me. Just follow Boss honestly.”
