Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 462 - 44 Transformation Technique

Chapter 462 -44 Transformation Technique

“Heresy!”

This was the opinion of many regarding Datong’s official cooperation with the Spirit Clan.

Despite the efforts of the past two years, which had softened the Human Race’s view of the Spirit Clan from one of extreme hostility, solving the issue of inter-species relations was not something that could be accomplished overnight.

Many Martial Artists and ordinary people could not understand the thoughts of the Datong officials.

But whatever the thoughts were, Wang Sheng could not change the outcome.

The power of the Datong officials was simply too formidable.

Not to mention the hidden strengths, just the more than ten Great Grandmaster teachers at Datong College alone constituted an immensely powerful force; not even with the existence of the Spirit World could any other power muster the presence of so many Great Grandmasters.

Even now, aside from the Datong officials, the collective strength of other powers was about equal to that of a single college.

But these Martial Artists did not believe the college represented the entirety of Datong’s foundation.

Moreover, there were the stabilizing forces of Martial Saint Zhu Xiao and the Leader’s Master.

In summary, the matter was settled, and many from the Spirit Clan began to leave the deep seas and mountains to interact with the Human Race.

Time quickly passed, and three months went by.

“How is the situation between the Human Race and the Spirit Clan?” Huangtian knew that even if there were preparations, it definitely wouldn’t be easy, so he had been paying attention, ready to proceed with the next stage of the strategy once a certain level was reached.

Huangtian’s secretary, holding a document, said, “Leader, in fact, things have gone much smoother than we thought. The trade and communications between the Human Race and the Spirit Clan are going well, and many from the Spirit Clan have even moved into the cities…”

The secretary was also surprised when he saw the data; the Spirit Clan and Human Race were getting along better than expected.

“It’s quite normal; in fact, our Human Race and the Spirit Clan have no deep-seated hatred, and we share the same culture and language. There is no barrier in getting along, so naturally, there isn’t much of an issue.”

Due to the influence of the Destiny Dynasty, the Spirit Clan was also greatly affected, with high-intelligence members of the Spirit Clan not only speaking the language of the Human Race but also understanding their writing.

Some of the Human Race were even inferior to the higher-ranked members of the Spirit Clan.

Basically, there was nothing hindering their interactions.

Therefore, the smooth integration was actually expected; of course, reaching this much progress in three months was beyond their expectations.

Of course, Huangtian was also aware of some facts.

“These are just the positive aspects, right?”

“Yes, although there is recognition in terms of writing and language, the stark physical differences between the Spirit Clan and Human Race have still led to many issues. However, all situations are under control.”

After all, joining different races naturally comes with its set of problems, but at least for now, things seem to be going smoothly.

Huangtian glanced at the detailed data and made a decision.

“If that’s the case, then let’s start the next step of the plan, to fully integrate the Spirit Clan into our Human Race.”

Initially, Huangtian truly intended to cooperate, but after discussions with the Spirit Clan, he and other senior officials decided to let the Spirit Clan completely integrate and become a branch of the Human Race.

Much like the minority ethnicities within the Human Race.

“Yes!”

The secretary was naturally aware of the integration plan.

The Human Race side agreed, and the Spirit Clan side was also willing to cooperate.

Progress was swift, and the Spirit Clan received the news, with all the Spirit Clan Elders gathering at the location of Elder Linggui, as it was closer to the core area of Datong.

“Is it really good to start the plan? Once the plan is completed, the Spirit Clan may even become a lineage of the Human Race.”

“There’s no point in having regrets at this time.”

“It might not be such a bad thing. In fact, by doing this, the Spirit Clan is still the Spirit Clan, the only difference being the close dealings with the Human Race. It’s even very possible that in the future, the Spirit Clan will be able to enter the upper echelons of Datong.”

The Spirit Clan had already made their decision during the discussions.

Since they were deeply cooperating, it was better to think of ways to fully integrate rather than remain in an ambiguous state, neither close nor distant. Without intimacy, and under the influence of power, there would even be a lack of autonomy.

Now that the curse of becoming human had disappeared, integration was the next step.

In the eighth year of the new calendar, Datong made another public announcement.

The cooperation between the Human Race and the Spirit Clan was to deepen further.

Many regulations were stipulated, among which the most eye-catching was regarding Datong College.

“The Spirit Clan will send twelve Kings equivalent to Great Grandmasters to teach at Datong College, and they will also send younger members of the Spirit Clan to study at Datong College.”

Someone read the announcement aloud, shocked at its implications.

“This doesn’t seem like mere cooperation, does it?”

“How come when I read this part of the announcement, it doesn’t seem like it’s about partnering with the Spirit Clan, but rather about bringing the Spirit Clan under Datong’s rule?”

Many people saw the deeper meaning in the content of the announcement, their expressions odd.

At the same time, many had an epiphany; so this was the long-term plan of Datong?

Goodness gracious! How impressive!

For some reason, at that moment, many felt a sense of pride swelling in their hearts.

Datong had always been good to its citizens, and now it was even more powerful, capable of amalgamating the Spirit Clan, which was an honor to them.

This important announcement was not only posted publicly but was also delivered by special officials.

He saw that everyone had read the announcement and stated, “This matter is part of Datong’s grand scheme. I hope that all citizens can cooperate with the country. You may not interact with the Spirit Clan, but please also try not to publicly resist, and do not look at the Spirit Clan with bias…”

In short, it was clear: this was Datong’s grand plan, and they hoped the people would cooperate to allow the Spirit Clan to integrate with the Human Race.

A single statement might not mean much.

The ambiguous notices, however, changed the effect, giving everyone a sense of participation, a feeling of being involved in the nation’s construction.

As a result, the implementation of the decrees proceeded more smoothly than anticipated.

Many were proactive in cooperating and interacting with the Spirit Clan members entering the city.

And the first batch of the Spirit Clan to enter the Human Race cities were somewhat knowledgeable about their own internal plans and naturally were pleased to see such developments.

Meanwhile, inside Datong College, the winds of change were stirring.

Everyone knew that twelve Spirit Kings would be coming to the academy.

Spirit Kings, not inferior to Great Grandmasters, and who knew how many students would come along.

“Senior Brother Li, Spirit Kings are coming to the academy, and I hear they’ll all return to Mechanical College. Can they teach well?”

Many were gathered around a person, which was Li Xueqian.

Valued by the Leader’s Master and the head of the Mechanical Department, and respected for his genuine knowledge and talent.

“Whether they can teach or not is not for us to consider. Having been in the academy for so long, have you ever found its remarkable offerings to be wrong?”

“Naturally not.”

Every arrangement by the academy was exceedingly rational; no one felt it was wrong.

“Then that’s fine,” Li Xueqian, looking at the somewhat anxious crowd within the academy, sighed, “Even if they can’t teach Mechanical Techniques, Spirit Kings are practitioners of Qi Blood Martial Arts, and you can seek knowledge about Qi Blood Martial Arts from them.”

Li Xueqian was privy to more information, being highly regarded.

This relaxed everyone.

But in Li Xueqian’s eyes, the sigh was deeper, as few among these people had a true desire to learn Mechanical Techniques.

Even more so in the Literary Department.

“A Spirit King teaching us, what a joke?”

The Spirit Clan teaching Human Race culture, what was this matter?

Many students were dissatisfied.

However, the teachers did not pay attention, knowing more and clearly aware of the status of the Spirit Kings entering the Literary Department, who if not from the Spirit Clan, could even be reckoned as a Sub-Saint of the Human Race.

No matter the agitation within the academy, this matter was thus decided.

Half a month later, twelve Spirit Kings, along with three thousand Spirit Clan youngsters, arrived at Datong College.

Huangtian, the Dean of Datong College, personally appeared and made arrangements for the Spirit Clan exactly the same as for the Human Race, without any difference.

These Spirit Clan youngsters were trusted because the Human Race had also participated in their selection.

As for what the Spirit Clan would study, that was up to them to choose.

Some opted for Qi Blood Martial Arts, some for Body Cultivation, and still others entered the Literary Department.

The students of Datong College, having been carefully selected, remained composed even in a challenging environment and, along with the courteous behavior of the Spirit Clan, got along harmoniously.

But the flurry within the Literary Department was tumultuous.

Because the identity of the teaching Spirit King was revealed.

“You are none other than the respected Qi Huan, who wrote ‘Disquisitions on Cognition’!”

Indeed, this Spirit King had once taken risks to infiltrate the Human Race to understand them and eventually produced the profoundly influential ‘Disquisitions on Cognition’.”

This work was a classic revered by countless students of the literary path and considered mandatory reading for scholars.

Its influence in the former great dynasty deserved the title of a Sub-Saint.

On hearing this news, all the students were astonished, and then all became excited.

This was a Sub-Saint’s personal instruction, irresistible to anyone who truly aspired to scholarship.

In the world of letters, Saints held a status among literati not inferior to that of a Martial Saint!

The Mechanical Department was similar; a Spirit King of the Spirit Plant category arrived, rumored to have ties with Mechanical City and to know numerous lost Mechanical Techniques.

Each Spirit King integrated into the college in their own way, and progress was exceptionally smooth.

Although far from true integration, these achievements were sufficient!

Yet both the Spirit Clan and Human Race had their concerns.

While the Human Race could somewhat accept the Spirit Clan, the varied true forms of the Spirit Clan were truly inconvenient for life amongst the humans.

In the end, Huangtian still sought out Wang Sheng.

“Sir…”

He was somewhat embarrassed, but such matters were indeed beyond his ability to resolve.

“The inconvenience of the true form?”

Wang Sheng nodded, indicating his understanding, then bid Huangtian leave.

He himself then fell into deep thought.

“The integration of the Spirit Clan is going smoothly, but in this world, the Spirit Clan doesn’t have the notion of transformation. Can I create it?”

Having pushed for the integration of the Spirit Clan and Human Race, he was willing to address this trouble.

With this in mind, Wang Sheng entered seclusion.

When he reemerged, it was the end of year eight in the new calendar.

“Transformation may not be possible for now, but the Transformation Technique can still be done, and perhaps the Spirit Clan might even prefer it?”
