Chapter 728 - 301: Trust in Science! Trust in Science! Trust in Science!

Because today is overcast, even at this time, clouds and mist can be seen around the Golden Summit, as if it were an Immortal Pavilion suspended in the sky, dreamy and illusory, also a natural "Immortal Sea View" pattern.

Therefore, it’s not without reason that renowned and righteous sects are located in famous mountains and have thrived to this day.

Chen Han was quite curious and went to check out the Golden Summit. Online sources say that this summit is made of bronze with gilding, capable of withstanding 600 years of thunderous refinement, indicating it’s not ordinary bronze.

But when he arrived at the Golden Summit and intended to examine it, the Feng Shui Spirit Recording Stone, which he had put in his pocket, reacted.

A game prompt appeared:

[The Feng Shui Spirit Recording Stone detected a fragmented Feng Shui Array Formation, currently analyzing... lacking corroborative materials, temporarily unable to analyze...]

This prompt indicated that the Thunderfire Alchemy Peak is indeed a Feng Shui Array Formation and it is really incomplete.

"Patriarch Chen, we’ve already cleaned the rust on this Golden Summit once, but it still remains dim and dull." Daoist Qingwei approached with a sigh.

He was just about to say something when a call came in. After connecting, Daoist Qingwei could be heard saying loudly: "What? Sending a guidance group over?"

This remark gathered all the Daoists around, all of them frowning.

The term "guidance group", most of them had encountered or at least heard of. In their Taoist Sect, having a group of people who knew nothing about cultivation or Taoist Scripture guiding them—what nonsense.

But in this situation, they guessed that it was undoubtedly related to the Golden Summit.

Qingwei turned on the speakerphone, and the voice on the other end said, "Daoist Qingwei, considering the safety of tourists, it’s always good to have expert guidance."

Upon hearing this, Daoist Qingwei retorted immediately: "Countless Celestial Venerables, leader, I don’t know what you’re talking about. All the Daoists from Wudang are gathering just to exchange Taoist Scriptures and to author a new Taoist Scripture."

"What guidance group is here to guide what? Do they understand reciting scriptures? Do they understand Taoist Scripture intent? Leader, you say you want to send a guidance group?"

"Then I welcome it. I’ll immediately hold a press conference here, saying directly that you’re sending a guidance group to teach us how to recite scriptures and write scriptures?"

The leader on the other end was startled upon hearing this. If such a press conference were held, netizens would criticize him by tomorrow, and the day after he’d have to consider whether to stay or not.

Frightened, he quickly explained: "Daoist Qingwei, listen to me, that wasn’t my intention..."

But Daoist Qingwei was relentless: "Then what do you mean? We’re exchanging Taoist Scriptures, and the leader insists we’re dealing with Feng Shui? All cultivators know Feng Shui is nonsense, we should believe in science, doesn’t the leader believe in science?"

"Ahem... ahem..." It was unclear if the other side was drinking, but it seemed they’d choked on something and hurriedly tried to explain: "How could that be? Of course we believe in science, Daoist Qingwei, pretend I never made this call."

What a joke, if outsiders teach Taoist Purple Robes to write Taoist Scriptures, it’s just public opinion, but it would spell trouble for him.

Not believing in science would be a bigger problem.

If he had known that the temper of this Wudang Daoist was so fierce, he wouldn’t have gotten involved in this matter.

After hanging up, Daoist Qingwei snorted heavily, then looked at his junior brother, Daoist Chen, with eyes full of appreciation.

The power of his junior brother’s pet phrase really was somewhat impactful.

Is this considered some form of Word Magic attack?

After all, sometimes a single sentence holds boundless power. Didn’t you see the leader just now? Once the words were said, he immediately claimed he never made the call.

"..." Daoist Chen was in a daze, why did he suddenly feel that the gaze of Senior Brother Sect Leader towards him was filled with doting love?

Watching Daoist Qingwei’s overbearing energy, all the other Daoists laughed. They could even guess some things. It seemed some people wanted to pull the same old tricks.

Unfortunately, these people seemed to have forgotten that the times have changed. Back in those special times, the authority was in the hands of those so-called experts and professors, they couldn’t help it either.

But it’s different now; in this country, it’s free, and their Taoist Sect is for cultural inheritance, recognized by the state.

Guidance for what? We’re merely having a Taoist Scripture exchange meeting, and you want to guide us on writing scriptures?

The Taoist Sect also has many media accounts, with known Daoists having a massive following when combined.

Just on the Wudang side alone, they can mobilize accounts with hundreds of thousands to millions of followers, easily surpassing tens of millions, and if including non-Taoist bloggers related to the sect, it would be even more.

Guess how many the entire Taoist Sect would have?

Want to see if this outsider guiding us to write Taoist Scriptures will sully my reputation or yours?

You say we aren’t exchanging Taoist Scriptures, do you think we ourselves wouldn’t know? Do you outsiders know us better?

Don’t assume that those cultivating aren’t aware of worldly matters; they keep pace with the times, play with phones, with cars, and yes, with public opinion too.

Meanwhile, Yuan Xin, after contacting that well-known leader, did not hesitate and contacted the group members again.

The guidance group couldn’t just be him alone; he gathered the descendants or disciples of those elders from back then.

He would form a guidance group with these people and then go to Wudang to provide guidance, and the story that follows would undoubtedly become a good tale.

This is called passing the torch, contributing to the cause of preventing thunder harm, and countless tourists should thank them.

"Professor Yuan, are you sure this is feasible?" the professor on the other end of the phone asked suspiciously.

Yuan Xin confidently responded: "Lin, what could go wrong here? The answers are already laid out; how could we fail by copying them? I’m sure there will be news soon, and we should be considering which flight tickets to buy."
