In Zhang Hao's office, as Zhang Hao finished speaking, Lu Xianfeng's heart skipped a beat. The invitation he had been waiting for for a year and a half had finally arrived.
At this moment, Lu Xianfeng's heart felt unprecedentedly peaceful. As the master of Tianji Pavilion, Lu Xianfeng was no longer a young boy. Before he came here today, he had already had various assumptions and prepared various reactions.
But now, Lu Xianfeng is still hesitant. Really joining Dayang Group is not a simple joining.
As early as fifteen years ago, Dayang Group began to "eliminate small groups" and eliminate the barriers between various shareholders; after so many years, Dayang Group has become integrated within the group.
Various families still exist, but they only exist. They are more like small families and no longer have the ability to influence Dayang Group.
There is no distinction between family and blood within Dayang Group. Through marriage, collaborative management, distribution of rights, matching of principal and deputy positions, assignment of tasks, etc., Dayang Group is now an alternative big family.
Therefore, if Tianji Pavilion truly joins Dayang Group and becomes a 'part' of Dayang Group, then there will no longer be Tianji Pavilion. At most, there will be a 'Dayang Group-Tianji Pavilion Office', and maybe there will be parentheses at the end:
'Dayang Group-Tianji Pavilion Office (Temporary)'. After more than ten years, the influence of Tianji Pavilion was almost gone, and this office was cancelled.
Lu Xianfeng was thinking, and Zhang Hao was not in a hurry, just sipping tea quietly. Zhang Hao believed that the other party must understand what it meant to join Dayang Group. In fact, Dayang Group made this information public.
However, the benefits of joining Dayang Group make countless people jealous.
Time passed little by little, and it was more than ten minutes quietly.
Suddenly Lu Xianfeng raised his head and said, "On behalf of Tianji Pavilion, I am willing to join Dayang Group!"
Zhang Hao put down his tea cup and smiled softly, "Master Lu, does he know what it means to join Dayang Group?"
"I know. From now on, we only have Dayang Group and Tianji Pavilion in our hearts. They will go with the wind and will only remain in history."
Zhang Hao laughed again, his smile was a little weird: "How can Tianji Pavilion become a thing of the past? Even if Tianji Pavilion is integrated into Dayang Group in the future, Tianji Pavilion will still be Tianji Pavilion. Just like several families who have joined Dayang Group now,
They are still independent.
Dayang Group is not a crusher of families and sects, we just gather everyone’s strength and strive to go faster, run further, and fly higher!”
Lu Xianfeng twitched the corner of his mouth, "Just say whatever makes you happy."
However, after pondering for a moment, Lu Xianfeng asked another question, "Mr. Zhang, you just said that the Golden Body Pathway has great potential in space. But I remember that when Dayang Group was exploring Xuanwu Mountain, we seemed to get a saying that the pure Golden Body Pathway has great potential in space.
In theory, body cultivation can reach the maximum... which seems to be the material limit?"
Zhang Hao's face became serious. The memories from more than ten years ago emerged, and he seemed to think of the scene in Xuanwu Mountain. He imitated his tone at that time: "Practice means progressing from 'pseudo three-dimensional' to 'three-dimensional', and then to 'super three-dimensional'."
', and finally officially entered the 'fourth dimension'!
We summarize these four stages as: refining essence to transform qi, refining qi to transform spirit, refining spirit to transform emptiness, and refining emptiness to combine with Tao!
The purpose of refining the Qi realm is to generate spiritual consciousness and then give birth to the soul. The second step of refining Qi and transforming into the soul is to nourish the soul and transcend the body.
In the third step, the super spirit transcends the body and transcends the material world.
The last step... I'm sorry, we are also groping. All advanced civilizations are also groping. I hope you can break this bottleneck.
Oh, by the way, there is also a "Qi Practitioner" cultivation method, which is completely based on the material world. But the peak Qi Practitioner can only barely touch the height of "super three-dimensional". I personally do not recommend this kind of practice.
Method. Of course, if your qualifications are not very good, you can still practice, and you can at least gain thousands of years of life."
After finishing speaking, Zhang Haocai looked at Lu Xianfeng, "These are the real words from the beginning. Please note that they are Qi practitioners, not the cultivation methods of the Golden Body Path."
"So that's it. But as far as we know, the golden body path belongs to the practice route of Qi practitioners!"
"Yes!" Zhang Hao nodded, "But I wonder if you have discovered that the innate path is actually also a qi practitioner path?"
"Huh?" Lu Xianfeng was stunned. Zhang Hao's words gave him a great shock. He did not doubt Zhang Hao's words. With Zhang Hao's current status, there was no need to lie.
Seeing Lu Xianfeng deep in thought, Zhang Hao spoke again, "We have also been affected by this message before. This is also one of the reasons why Dayang Group has been continuously exploring the path of cultivation. It is undeniable that the path of cultivation is indeed successful.
Judging from the current situation, the path to cultivation can still go a long way.
However, the path of self-cultivation has completely taken the direction of spiritual practice. We have also recently been examining whether there are problems in this aspect and whether there is an issue of going too far or not doing enough.
And we must see that the core of Xuanhuang Civilization was the path of cultivation, but it was completely wiped out by the Red River Civilization.
Recently, we have other ideas.
First of all, in all the information we have found so far, there is no mention of the practice methods of the Red River Civilization. Do you think this is a bit strange?
Secondly, our research on the innate pathway has found that the innate pathway is completely feasible in theory.
Please note the previous paragraph. Xuanhuang Civilization believes that Qi practitioners follow a "completely material world practice method"; but in fact, life itself is not just material.
As a human being, we have spirit, we have will, we have wisdom, and we have more moral good and evil; we even have fear, cowardice, despicability, and evil!”
Lu Xianfeng rolled his eyes and suddenly exclaimed: "The Qi Practitioner Path is the practice method of the Red River Civilization?"
Zhang Hao nodded lightly, "Yes! We have this guess at present! Otherwise, the innate path will not have such detailed realm divisions.
After Xiantian, there are nine heavens, and then think about the name "Hetu World". We have reason to believe that Hetu World was a testing field for the Xuanhuang Civilization, and what was tested was the practice method of Qi Practitioners.
Even in this study of innate skills, the Song Dynasty also provided an incomplete innate skill called "Nine Heavens". The skill was seriously incomplete, but at least it can be seen that the innate path should be taken
It works.
However, due to the severe deficiency of the exercises, we had to borrow the exercises from the Xuanhuang Continent, but we found that they were a good match. Many things can be combined with the innate exercises and the exercises of the Golden Body Path by simply changing the way of thinking.
Now we have finished deducing the brand-new exercises for the realm of transformation and below; we are currently working on the Dharma-level exercises. The next step is the Dongxu-level exercises.
The new exercises will be based on the Innate Path and Golden Body Path exercises, supplemented by borrowing from other exercises; the name of the exercise realm will be borrowed from the name of the Innate Exercises, the Nine Heavens after the Innate.
According to the calculation that the first heaven corresponds to the stage of spiritual transformation, the second heaven corresponds to the Dharma phase, the third heaven corresponds to the cave void, and the fourth to sixth heaven corresponds to the realm of refining the spirit and returning to the void, which are the three realms of returning to the true state, pure yang, and returning to the void.
As for the Seventh Heaven to the Ninth Heaven, they correspond to the practice of practicing Xu Hedao. There are no names for the exercises and realms of practicing Xu Hedao yet.
Our current goal is to push the cultivation techniques to the realm of returning to emptiness; and also to push the new innate techniques to the sixth level of heaven."
Lu Xianfeng was stunned for a long time before he stuttered and asked: "Then... can those who follow the Golden Body path directly switch to a new method?"
"Yes. We have already tested it. It takes two months, or at most three months, to transform the technique into the spirit transformation stage without much deterioration. The foundation will be more solid.
As long as Tianji Pavilion joins Dayang Group, the exercises will be fully disclosed."
Lu Xianfeng thought for a while and asked: "This technique will not be made public? Dayang Group has already made "Xiao Zhou Tiangong" public."
"It's enough to reveal a skill to win over others. Dayang Group always has some trump cards, doesn't it?"
"Are there any flaws in "Xiao Zhou Tiangong"?"
Zhang Hao smiled faintly, "All our masters have checked so far, and no problems have been found. However... in Dayang Group, all the masters who have broken through to become gods, and who have passed the test, all practice "Zhou Tian Gong".
When the new "Xiantian Gong" is successful, the masters of Dayang Group will have one more choice."
Lu Xianfeng's eyes flickered. He probably understood what Zhang Hao meant: We haven't found any obvious problems yet, but that doesn't mean there are no problems, so we are not allowed to practice internally.
Of course, Zhang Hao also has a hidden meaning: if you don't join the Dayang Group, you can only practice "Xiao Zhou Tiangong"; but if you join the Dayang Group, then you can freely choose "Zhou Tiangong" or "Xiantian Gong".
This is a threat, but it is also a temptation!
In the end, Lu Xianfeng had to bow his head and said again: "On behalf of Tianji Pavilion, I am willing to join Dayang Group."
Zhang Hao smiled, "Welcome. It's noon, let's have some work lunch."
Lu Xianfeng wanted to go back to mobilize immediately; but no one could refuse the proposal to have lunch with Zhang Hao. Although it was a working meal, Lu Xianfeng was stunned when he entered the restaurant.
Since it is a working meal, it is naturally a public restaurant. All the people in the Dayang Group who are in the transformation stage, or whose positions are above the director level, have dinner here; downstairs is the staff restaurant, where employees of the squad leader and below eat.
The atmosphere here is relaxed and comfortable, everyone is chatting and laughing, and even those who are in the stage of becoming gods sit next to the Dongxu master to ask questions.
Zhang Hao and Lu Xianfeng lined up to receive the meal. Lu Xianfeng looked around curiously, not asking, just observing silently.
While waiting for the meal, Lu Xianfeng was surprised to find that most of the meals here were made from spiritual materials; those that were not made from spiritual materials were all exquisite food. Everyone was free to choose their meals, but they only needed to swipe their cards.
You can even take it away. But if you take it away, you are only allowed to take away a maximum of three people.
Lu Xianfeng silently observed that there are many spiritual materials here, including vegetarian dishes, meat dishes, fungi, etc. Many of the spiritual materials have reached the level of god transformation. Such spiritual materials can make people break their heads in the outside world, but here they are made into meals.
It's still a big bowl; the price of the food seems to be very cheap. According to the chef's quotation, the most expensive one is a kind of spinal cord soup called shark dragon, which costs 500 yuan per spoon, which is equivalent to 5 low-grade spiritual stones.
Lu Xianfeng asked for a spoonful of spinal cord soup and found that the efficacy of the medicine was not weaker than the Bixue Dan, a Peiyuan Pill that transforms into gods. The market price of Bixue Pill ranges from 10 to 30 Ling Yuan depending on its quality; 1 Ling Yuan is a piece of high-grade Ling Yuan.
stone, equivalent to 1 million yuan!
In other words, in the Dayang Group’s cafeteria, spiritual materials are almost given away for free!
It wasn't until early 12:00, when he returned to Zhang Hao's office after lunch, that Lu Xianfeng finally couldn't help but ask.
Zhang Hao smiled softly and said: "In terms of catering, most of them are actually farmed by Dayang Group. We have established a large number of breeding bases under the sea. There are also ones on land. Dayang Group has no shortage of aura.
The separation of employees and leaders is a kind of class, telling employees and cultivators to work hard under the transformation of gods; the communication between the upper and lower levels tells everyone that as long as they work hard, there is hope.
And all the leaders gather in a restaurant, which is a kind of communication and supervision. Anyone who has suggestions or even grievances can put forward them. In addition, this situation can effectively suppress the acceptance of bribes and other situations.
Dayang Group adopts a strategy of high salary and high integrity. Under such circumstances, if you accept bribes and are caught, you will definitely be dealt with seriously."
“The culture of Dayang Group is truly extraordinary. A small restaurant has so much attention to detail.
Oh, by the way, accepting bribes... I remember that Dayang Group seems to implement a 'sugar-coated cannonball' strategy, which is allowing bribes to be accepted but not enforced."
"That was in the past. It was a transition. Now within Dayang Group, bribery and other situations are not allowed to occur. It is still the same externally."
"I see."
The two chatted for a while, discussing some details, mainly the specific process of Tianji Pavilion's integration into Dayang Group, the position of relevant management, etc. Dayang Group has a mature physique, so there is no problem.
However, the details were complicated after all, and Lu Xianfeng did not leave until after three o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhang Hao did not take any time off, but immediately came to Dayang Group's new scientific research center.
The new scientific research center is located in the west of Shuntianfu, and it is completely a "scientific research city". Now that Dayang Group has enough area, the area of this scientific research base is not stingy.
The core research being carried out by the scientific research center is electromagnetic technology, and its representative product is the rail gun.
Facing the Red River Civilization, Zhang Hao made two preparations. One is cultivation, and cultivation is divided into two main development routes: cultivation and innateness; the future development direction of cultivation is the scientific research system; and the future development direction of innateness is
Military system!
Another first-hand preparation was scientific weapons technology. After half a year of thinking, Zhang Hao chose the 'giant ship and cannon' route.
However, the giant ships and cannons of the interstellar era have not yet been determined for the giant ships, but the ‘big guns’ have been decided—rail guns!
Compared with lasers, particle technology, etc., the technical principles of rail guns are relatively simple, the manufacturing requirements are relatively simple, but the effects are powerful enough.
As long as the speed is fast enough, the rail gun can theoretically even penetrate the planet.
The research on the rail gun is conducted by Ge Dong, an expert in electromagnetics of Dayang Group and a disciple of Fu Yun.
