Chapter 78 Aftermath
The Zhenwu Peak incident was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake; the ripples it created swept across China in a very short time and quickly spread to the rest of the world.
Unlike the singular event of Japanese Onmyoji suppressing a rampaging god, the Shinbu Peak incident presents a more complex and orthodox picture: the god manifests his divine power, personally transmits the Great Dao, and bestows blessings upon all living beings. For an ancient civilization whose cultural lineage has never been interrupted, this is a revolutionary event.
The official response was extremely swift. While most tourists were still in a daze or trance from the sermon, a well-trained team from the Special Administration of Foreign Affairs had already taken over the scene.
The crowd was transferred and isolated in batches, and subjected to gentle questioning and physical examinations. The official statement was consistent: a rare mass hysteria and abnormal weather phenomenon occurred at the Zhenwu Peak scenic area. The situation is currently under control, with no casualties, and the specific cause is under investigation.
But everyone knows that this is just the last fig leaf.
Videos circulating online and vivid descriptions from eyewitnesses have already etched the image of the Zhenwu Emperor preaching with his towering golden body, accompanied by a shower of flowers and the sprawling of golden lotuses, into the public's perception.
The cultivation methods of internal energy martial arts spread like wildfire among the people, secretly circulating through videos.
It's a pity that although someone recorded the video, the immeasurable light that allows people to enter a state of enlightenment could not be spread through the video.
The extraordinary has become an inevitable trend, which is beyond human control.
The headquarters of the Bureau of Foreign Affairs was brightly lit.
The bureau chief rubbed his throbbing temples, looking at the thick stack of reports in front of him. The top two were a detailed report from Chen Yang and his team regarding the incident.
There is also a complete version of Chen Yang's internal energy martial arts, the complete training content of the first to ninth stages of the Tianyuan Battle Technique.
According to Chen Yang's report, after Zhenwu descended to earth, he observed the [Boundless Light] and gained some insights, which led him to complete the subsequent four to nine sections.
"Breaking through to the fifth level of martial arts... Chen Yang has surpassed everyone else." The director muttered to himself.
"Director," the secretary knocked and entered, her face grave. "We've received instructions from above: First, spare no effort to ensure the integrity and leading edge of the internal energy martial arts cultivation system, especially the high-end parts. Second, contact and assess all controllable extraordinary individuals and organizations. The principle is: cooperation first, control second, but the bottom line must be maintained."
The bureau chief took a deep breath, feeling the heavy pressure on his shoulders, but also a surge of unprecedented passion. Times have truly changed.
Meanwhile, Su Fan was scrolling through the news on his phone.
The two most important points are: first, the Abe family, the Japanese Imperial Family, and the Japanese government announced that they would spend 5 billion Japanese yen to build a shrine for Onmyoji! And this is only the initial investment; they will continue to increase their investment later.
Su Fan understood; without a doubt, Japan panicked after his alter ego, Abe Gen, left!
This was shown to the Onmyoji Abe no Gen, signifying Japan's respect for him and its desire for Abe no Gen to appear.
Secondly, it also sends a signal to other countries: don't mess with Japan. Japan is not what it used to be. Japan is now protected by Onmyoji and has extraordinary power.
The American army is strong enough, right? Yet it was beaten to a pulp by the Sugawara no Michizane statue. Sugawara no Michizane is powerful enough, right? Yet he was easily suppressed by the Onmyoji Abe no Gen.
With the protection of the Onmyoji Abe no Gensuke, we are no longer a second-rate country, but a top power in the new era!
Even after Su Fan read the comments section of the video, he found that the Japanese people's sense of national identity was stronger than ever before!
Su Fan simply watched indifferently. The script in Japan was a battle between good and evil, and the evil hadn't even arrived yet! Don't worry, hopefully the barbarians in Japan will still be laughing when the time comes!
Secondly, on Zhenwu Peak, the Great Emperor Zhenwu manifested himself in the world! The Heavenly Venerable revealed his magnificent golden body, slaying evil spirits at will and personally transmitting the Daoist teachings to the human realm!
Those who witnessed the [Boundless Light] on the day of the event all gained insight into a martial arts technique! Congratulations!
"Heavenly Dao, show me the spread of internal energy martial arts!" Su Fan said, thinking that since he had put in so much effort, the effect should be quite good.
A miniature version of the human civilization survival map appeared in front of Su Fan, and a red dot on it represented a person who had stepped into the path of internal energy martial arts!
Previously, it was mentioned that the main group was concentrated in the China region, exhibiting a scattered clustering. Su Fan knew that they were probably people from the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs and a few people who had obtained the internal energy martial arts cultivation method.
However, the number of red dots has increased significantly, and a small number of red dots have also appeared in other countries. This is undoubtedly due to the spread of the video of Zhenwu's descent on Zhenwu Peak.
After all, Su Fan, in his true form, explained the internal energy martial arts, from the first stage to the fourth stage!
Moreover, it hasn't even been a day since Zhenwu spread his teachings to the world. These people must all be geniuses to have mastered the basics so quickly!
Su Fan couldn't help but sigh that heroes of the world are as numerous as carp crossing a river!
"As time goes by and the videos of the True Martial Dharma Image spreading its teachings spread, it's likely that more and more people will come into contact with internal energy martial arts!" Heavenly Dao spoke up at the opportune moment.
"It's not enough! After all, not everyone in foreign countries understands Chinese. In fact, most people don't understand the language at all. If they want to learn through videos, it will take forever! Besides, there are some people in the world who don't even have internet access!" Su Fan said, not complacent about the current progress.
"Once some well-developed low-level martial arts worlds are opened up, people in the Mountain and Sea Realm will be able to obtain extraordinary knowledge cultivation systems. I think the situation will be much better then!" Heavenly Dao said.
"I hope so!" Su Fan said to himself without responding, "Perhaps I can take part in this mythological revival drama in other countries!"
"By the way, how's the research on the power of faith going? I let you take all four of my only artifacts of faith to study, so give me some results!" Su Fan said, thinking of the True Martial Sword, the Eight-Foot Mirror, the Eight-Foot Magatama, and the Ame-no-Murakumo Sword.
"The research on the power of faith is showing some promise. Give me a little more time!" Heavenly Dao said.
"Faith is great! If we can actually make something out of it, then while human civilization is asleep, it can contribute to my grand project of turning the fake into the real across all the heavens and myriad worlds. When it's awake, it can provide emotional crystals. Even if we pray to gods and Buddhas, we have to do our part!" Su Fan began to envision the future and successfully entered a fantasy moment!
He even thought that once the training in the Mountain and Sea Realm was somewhat successful, he would create a marvelous artifact that could be used to find other civilizations. With the snowball effect of this development, the fantasy that Heaven had once encouraged him to stay in the Mountain and Sea Realm might not be impossible to realize in reality!
