Mu Jinyu didn't really propose much, for the information about the demons they currently had was too sparse. After giving Mu Hongchen a few suggestions, he turned to Su Zijin and the others, asking, "Do you wish to cultivate?"
"Ah?"
Originally listening quietly to their conversation, Su Zijin and the other three women were startled by Mu Jinyu's sudden question, and then nodded lightly like pecking chickens.
If they were still in the peaceful era of the past, they might not have been so eager to cultivate, as making money was a bit more important.
But in this era of darkness and chaos, with demons rampant and the constant possibility of sudden death at the hands of a demon, they felt it was better to have their fate in their own hands.
Besides, they had been intending to ask Mu Jinyu about cultivation during his rest time, wondering if they could still learn at their age.
Now that Mu Jinyu had brought it up on his own, they naturally nodded and asked for guidance.
"Hmm, after I woke up this time, I received some inheritance left by my master. It contains many cultivation methods, including those suitable for women. However, I can't guarantee that each of you will be successful in cultivating,"
Mu Jinyu said softly.
"That's okay, we'll try our best. If it really doesn't work out, we'll just stay in the safe house later and try not to go out much," Gu Xiyan said with a forced smile.
Mei Yinxue said, "Hmm, I believe that even if some of us can't cultivate, others will surely be able to. As long as we can cultivate, staying together will make us much safer, and you won't have to trouble yourself over every little thing."
"Alright, then I'll start by teaching you the cultivation techniques. Try and see if you can sense the presence of spiritual energy," Mu Jinyu nodded and said.
Seeing this, Mu Hongchen immediately stood up and said, "Ah, then I'll go out."
"No need," Mu Jinyu turned to her and shook his head, "In times like these, there's no need to hide or hoard things. Besides, you are my elder, so there's no need to keep secrets from you. Oh, Aunt Mu, you might as well call Wu Shisan over. I'll teach him a cultivation method too!"
Mu Jinyu was not so polite when it came to Wu Shisan.
He vaguely remembered that Wu Shisan used to be quite ambitious. Before he came to Dragon King Hall, both Wu Shisan and Xiang Mantang were strong candidates for the new Dragon King, and they even had a fight.
"Old Wu has gone to deal with a place where demons are rampant," Mu Hongchen replied truthfully upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words.
"Then that's fine. I'll teach him when he returns. By the way, what is the level of the demons he is suppressing? Is it dangerous? Does he need support?" Mu Jinyu asked.
Although he was not very fond of Wu Shisan, Dragon King Hall was short on people now. Of the former Seven Great Hall Masters, only four were still alive, and two were missing.
It was basically down to just Mu Hongchen and Wu Shisan.
And Mu Hongchen was not really the type to engage in fighting and killing, making Wu Shisan's role in Dragon King Hall even more crucial.
Surely, as one of the world's Top Ten Organizations, Dragon King Hall couldn't just rely on him alone, right?
If any tough demons appeared, he'd have to handle them himself—wouldn't that exhaust him!
Mu Hongchen shook her head and replied, "Master, don't worry. I've provided Old Wu with a satellite phone, so there won't be any sudden loss of signal. We also have a dedicated contact person to keep in touch with him, so I'll know his situation at all times. For now, there hasn't been any issue."
"That's good,"
Mu Jinyu felt relieved upon hearing this.
Then he waved to Mu Hongchen and said, "Aunt Mu, come and sit over here. I'll show you the pathways of operating the cultivation method."
"Okay," after handling some urgent matters, Mu Hongchen quickly put down her computer, ran over to the sofa, and obediently sat next to Su Zijin.
A look of eager curiosity on a child's face, his gaze fixed intently on Mu Jinyu.
Mu Jinyu then began to explain the Cultivation Method suited for females that he intended to teach them.
Since Gu Xiyan and Wen Rou were complete novices in cultivation, and Mei Yinxue and Su Zijin had only a partial understanding, he started from the basics, explaining in great detail.
He even went through the various positions involved in the circulation of meridians.
Although Mu Hongchen was familiar with these concepts, she did not listen impatiently, for she discovered many issues she had only partially understood before.
"Alright, once you've remembered this, you can start trying to cultivate. If you can trigger the Sense of energy and attract nature's spiritual energy and Elemental Qi towards you, you're basically on the path to cultivation. Although the speed of cultivation won't be very fast," said Mu Jinyu.
"Okay."
After listening, all the women nodded simultaneously, then sat down cross-legged to try and activate the cultivation technique given to them by Mu Jinyu, attempting to summon the so-called Sense of energy.
Mu Jinyu watched them, praying in his heart that they would succeed.
After all, given the current situation, he was doomed not to be able to stay by their side forever, to protect them. So, if they could develop the ability to defend themselves, that would be for the best.
Moreover, although demons were rampant and the darkness was disruptive, the emerging news wasn't entirely bleak; there was also the resurgence of nature's spiritual energy.
So, if Gu Xiyan and the others were talented, they might well embark on the path of cultivation at their current age.
Furthermore, the Cultivation Method that Mu Jinyu taught them wasn't traditional martial arts that required Body Refinement from Mingjin to Dark Energy and then to freely controlled Energy Transformation before reaching the God Realm by harnessing True Qi to control the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy.
From the start, their cultivation technique wasn't about Strength Training but to cultivate True Qi; you might say from the outset, it was at godly standards!
Of course, it wasn't possible that once the cultivation technique was practiced, they would possess the strength of a Terrestrial Immortal, but at most, they would be stronger than Dark Energy.
While Mu Jinyu was serving as a protector for Su Zijin and the others,
the Dragon King Hall member who had taken the golden briefcase earlier made his way to the long, dark, gloomy, and oppressive corridor of the underground storage room.
Although he was slightly frightened of this place, since everyone in Dragon King Hall was busy, he had no choice but to brave it alone, walking down this empty corridor while holding a demon captive.
"Tap, tap, tap..."
In the vast and gloomy corridor, the end of which he couldn't see, the young man's footsteps echoed louder and louder with each step, making his heart pound with increasing fear.
He could only reassure himself, telling himself it was fine, the Ghost-Faced Demon had already been suppressed in the golden container and couldn't escape.
And as he was wearing the Gold Inlaid Jade Magical Instrument, it would shield him from the demon's corruption and ensure his safety.
Finally,
After what seemed like an eternity,
The young man with the golden briefcase arrived at the heavy, specially alloyed door that was sealed shut. After pressing the passcode and undergoing facial recognition, the massive door solemnly opened.
"Ding Dong..."
As the door opened, the young man faintly heard the sound of water droplets hitting the floor.
Along with a pungent smell of decay wafting towards him.
