Qing Ji nodded slightly. People's hearts can change. Who can guarantee that a tyrant won't emerge among the giants in the future? Even now, as the giants have developed to this point, there will be bad apples who will be banished to the vast Forbidden Forest to fend for themselves.
There are good people and bad people everywhere.
Therefore, Li Tongyun's concerns were not unfounded.
Originally, Qing Ji thought it was really absurd for a large group of people to let a little girl make the decisions.
But after spending some time with them, he realized that the most reliable person in the group was actually Li Tongyun...
This is actually even more outrageous.
However, at that moment, the King of Giants glanced at the Prophet of Giants, as if they were discussing something.
The giant prophet nodded, seemingly agreeing to something.
The King of Giants suddenly said, "What if we give the method of containing the Black Leaf Plain Royal Court to that friend? It's impossible to contain the entire Forbidden Forest, but Black Leaf Plain is the homeland of giants, and we were all born there."
Qing Ji, Li Tongyun, Da Yu, and the others were all startled!
To contain the entire Black Leaf Plain?
If that's the case, then all the giants will become Qing Chen's subjects!
What does this mean?
This means that Qing Chen's status among the giants will surpass that of the Giant Prophet and the Giant King, and no giant will be able to refuse his demands.
Even if he demanded that the Titans commit mass suicide, they couldn't refuse.
The King of Giants said, "That friend can become the King of Giants. As long as our people have a new future, it doesn't matter who is king. We will fight for him."
"Such a huge gamble?" Li Tongyun asked, "A human who isn't a giant, becoming the king of giants?"
The giant prophet said earnestly, “If it weren’t for that friend, the more than ten thousand giants present would actually be dead. We don’t reject becoming anyone’s subjects, and I have a general understanding of that friend’s character through the Black Spider. I don’t reject him; I even respect and trust him. Among the more than ten thousand giants, more than six hundred have the gift of telepathy. They can sense that you are not bad people, and more than one hundred of them have exceptionally pure hearts. I believe that the person who can become your leader will not be a bad person either.”
The so-called "more than one hundred people with exceptionally pure hearts" probably refers to those more than one hundred knights in reserve.
The Giant Prophet continued, “We now need to usher in a new era. I believe he won’t use his status as a containment host for anything. We’re just giving him a reason to trust us. After that, he only needs to issue one order, requiring that we can only give birth to new members of our race in Blackleaf Plains. Then the Giant race will be bound by him for generations to come.”
Zard: "Wow!"
Qing Ji immediately opened the Shadow Gate and said to Li Tongyun, "Go back to the city and log into the Superconducting World. You need to tell Qing Chen about this as soon as possible."
“Yes,” Li Tongyun nodded solemnly. This matter was enormous, even more so than anything else in the world.
...
...
Twelve hours later, Li Tongyun returned from the Shadow Gate.
Qing Chen was on his way to Silver City. He couldn't enter the superconducting world to exchange information at any time, so it took Li Tongyun a long time to wait for him.
Qing Chen made a decision on the spot: to teach the giant how to cultivate!
The giants have already made you their king and entrusted their lives to you. What can't you teach them? When you take in the Black Leaf Plain, those ten thousand-plus giants will be your personal guard.
Back then, my brother Qingzhun's personal guard shadow unit only had three hundred B-rank soldiers and two A-rank soldiers. My own more than ten thousand B-rank soldiers and more than ten A-rank soldiers represent a qualitative leap.
He really wanted to see what kind of complicated expression the old man on Ginkgo Mountain would have when he used the Shadow Gate to bring the giant back to the Eastern Continent…
Now, the giant has two choices: to practice the Cundi Dharma and receive initiation, or to practice the Ten Thousand Gods Thunder Master and control thunder.
The first one is faster.
The second one is even more powerful, and has the potential to break through to the demigod level.
The Path of the Knights is definitely out of the question. Given the giants' physical abilities, Qing Chen couldn't imagine what kind of trials they would need to unlock their genetic potential.
For example, when surfing, Qingchen and his group need waves of 30 meters or more, while the giants need waves of 60 meters or more to challenge the life-or-death challenge.
That thing isn't called a wave anymore, that's called a tsunami...
Therefore, Qing Chen abandoned the plan to make the giant a knight and simply gave them only two options: Xiu Wanshen Leisi, who had high talent, and Xiu Zhunti Fa, who did not have high talent.
Li Tongyun looked at the giant prophet: "Brother Qingchen has agreed to teach you the cultivation method. You can choose the giants with high talent and those with low talent."
Upon hearing this, the King of Giants shed tears, despite his royal status: "Finally, in my generation, the giants have a lineage, though it has nothing to do with me..."
Li Tongyun: "You're quite frank..."
The giant prophet said, "There are probably more than three hundred people with the highest talent. They cultivate the Pantheon Thunder Law, while the others cultivate the Zhunti Law."
“Okay,” Li Tongyun nodded. “Also, Brother Qingchen will prepare some teachers for you. Uncle Qingji, I would like to trouble you to open the Shadow Gate and go to City 5 and City 10. I have a list here. Go and bring the teachers over.”
It must be said that, in terms of single-target teleportation, the Shadow Gate is indeed more practical than the Key Gate. Qing Zhun probably thought that one day Qing Ji would be of great help to Qing Chen when he gave the Shadow Gate to Qing Ji.
The giant prophet watched Qing Ji leave with expectant eyes. A short while later, Luo Wanya, wearing glasses, led Xiao Si, Xiao Wu, Xiao Ba, and a group of parents' association members out.
At this time, Luo Wanyi insisted on reading for 6 hours every day, which made the gangster boss see a refined and scholarly air about him.
When Da Yu saw that it was Luo Wanya who had come to be the teacher in person, his eyes twitched slightly.
He already knew what Qing Chen was going to do. To put it nicely, this might be the first time the giant race had accepted cultural invasion.
Li Tongyun pointed at Luo Wanya and said to the giant prophet, "They came to teach everyone to read and write, as well as basic mathematics, history, biology... and political ideology."
Giants: "Wow!"
Soon, Qing Ji brought another group of people from City 5. Li Tongyun explained, "These people will teach you how to march and fight, and let the giants with telepathic abilities learn military knowledge. There are also junior officers here who are responsible for teaching the giants how to coordinate tactics in war."
The giants' fighting style hadn't stood the test of time; once the fighting started, they would all charge forward with wild shouts.
Just being reckless won't cut it. What Qing Chen needs to do now is: since everyone is still facing threats, let's stop being coy and directly turn the Titans into a more combat-effective army. That's the right thing to do!
The giant prophet looked at the impending changes with anticipation. Regardless of what Qing Chen was planning to see, the giant race was actually developing in a positive direction.
He looked at Li Tongyun and said, "Let's start cultivating. I'd also like to experience cultivation."
“No problem,” Li Tongyun said confidently. “Let’s start by practicing the Cundi Method. Find someone with less talent, and I’ll demonstrate the initiation and opening of the energy channels for you.”
The giant prophet nodded: "I'll call someone with low talent over here."
Hmph, he was summoned over.
"snort!"
(Why am I not talented enough?)
The King of Giants slapped him on the back of the head: "You didn't grow taller even though you ate giant python meat when you were a kid. Enough talk, hurry up and start cultivating."
Hmph, lying on the ground looking aggrieved, Li Tongyun said from the side, "My Zhunti Dharma level is B, so one initiation can directly raise him by two levels, which is what we humans call F and E levels."
After saying that, Li Tongyun covered it with her small hand and poured all of her Zhunti True Qi into it.
After the initiation ceremony was completed, she asked with a hint of pride and anticipation, "How does it feel? Does the Zhunti True Qi circulate throughout your body?"
The giant prophet looked at Hmph expectantly: "Upgraded?"
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Hmph!"
(I felt a warm current flowing through my body, but it was so little that it only flowed through my hands...it couldn't reach my whole body.)
Hmph, I didn't feel the joy of leveling up. I just felt that my Zhunti True Qi was so little.
Li Tongyun and the others were stunned. Could it be that with her B-level strength, she could only fill the meridians of one hand of the giant's head?
She looked at the enormous giant lying on the ground... so huge that it required dozens of times more Zhunti True Qi.
If all the meridians were truly filled, how terrifying would this giant be if he advanced to F-level?
Li Tongyun suddenly recalled that in world mythology, giants could move mountains and fill seas...
If we extrapolate from this level, even giants and demigods might be able to do it!
Absolutely amazing!
The key point is that Li Tongyun was quite smug just now, but now that she's only got a small amount of energy left, she can't stand being wronged!
She looked at Luo Wanyi and the others: "Let's all come together..."
Luo Wanyi, Xiao Wu, and the others present were all practicing the Zhunti Dharma, and most of them were at level B. In the end, even though the more than twenty 'teachers' were almost exhausted, they had only just managed to help Heng enter level F.
Helping the giants train is more difficult than I imagined.
The giant prophet said, "Thank you all for your hard work."
Xiao Tongyun casually retorted, "It wasn't that hard."
He stood up, feeling the newfound power within his body. He had been stuck at Rank B for a long time, and no matter how much he ate, he couldn't increase his strength or speed.
I'm so happy to feel this boost in power again.
The giant prophet asked, "Try it and see how much you've improved?"
Hmph, roughly making a judgment: "Hmph!"
(I feel my strength has increased by 50%.)
Giants: "Wow!"
The King of Giants was overjoyed. He had only leveled up once, yet his power had increased by 50%. What does that mean?
If they could cultivate to A-level, wouldn't they be able to fly to the heavens and dive into the earth? So what if there are giant monsters in the sea? Giant monsters must taste delicious!
The King of Giants recalled his longing for seafood.
The giants scrambled to be the next to receive the initiation, while Heng bounced around nearby, leaping several meters out of the treetops with each bound, looking like an orca leaping out of the sea.
The art style of this Forbidden Forest is gradually becoming outrageous.
"Let's begin the next initiation!" the giant prophet said expectantly.
Li Tongyun shook her head: "No."
"Huh?" The young giant prophet was taken aback. "Is that not allowed...?"
He believed that humans had become wary of the giants because they had witnessed their terrifying increase in power.
But then Li Tongyun explained, "Brother Qingchen said that giants must learn to write with a teacher. They can only receive initiation after learning one hundred characters. They can only master the breathing technique and cultivate on their own after completing a semester of courses, which include military and political thought. He is worried that you are too focused on power and forget to learn how to use it. By the way, he has also found you professional combat instructors, tactical masters, and weapons experts."
The giant prophet was moved. "My great friend is so kind! He's so good to them in every way!"
“Then let us proceed according to the plan of that great friend,” said the prophet, turning to the giant: “Silence!”
(Everyone, start learning! You can't get stronger without learning! Learn, everyone learn! Roll up your sleeves!)
Giants' desire to become stronger is almost like a man's desire for a woman. If you were to actually teach them, they certainly wouldn't want to learn academic subjects, but once that's involved in becoming stronger, it's a completely different story...
