The common people will also gradually master the Return to Origin and unleash their potential, but not more than the upper people.
However, the reality did not unfold as Jingyuan had imagined.
The fact that a mere mortal can display such talent will inevitably cause the three great laws to loosen immediately!
Jingnan took this news to Dragon Bone Village and told it to Mark.
Mark seemed quite pleased and immediately said, "Then bring this child down and let him learn about potential activation with them!"
In Mark's eyes, this was even a good thing!
The more people who master the Guiyuan technique, the more potential they can unleash, the more warriors they have—that's certainly a good thing.
The news that Chenmin8028 had learned of Guiyuan spread like wildfire.
He became a hero among the common people, and many of his peers came to him hoping he could give them some guidance.
8028 was also very generous in sharing his insights with his friends.
Other older residents also saw these children as a source of hope. They took on the work of these "prospective laborers," leaving time for the children to study, and even saved up milk and bread specifically to give to these children.
In the words of an old villager, it doesn't matter if they eat insect cakes for a few more years; these children are the hope!
However, these children of the Dust People were also very promising. Under the guidance of 8028, five more children mastered the Return to Origin Technique in just one day.
When Jingnan went to Longgu Village to report to Mark, Bai Yuekui was also there.
Mark, of course, had a big smile on his face.
Bai Yuekui calmly said, "Children have fewer emotional fluctuations, which is the easiest time for them to master the Guiyuan Heart Method. It's nothing to worry about."
Mark smiled and said, "It might not be a big deal for you, but for us, it's a huge step forward! Mr. Bai, we're going to send all these kids down here to learn and unlock their potential. We'll have to trouble you with that from now on."
Boss Bai had his own unspoken grievances. So many people had suddenly arrived in the village, and although they brought their own food and didn't eat the village's meals, it still had a significant impact on the village's life.
However, Boss Bai had a great heart, and being human, she didn't hold it against her.
"It's a bit of a hassle. But you can't just stand by and do nothing if the village gets into trouble!"
Mark grinned sheepishly and said, "That's for sure!"
……
The news that several children from the Dust People had mastered the Return to Origin was good news to Mark.
However, in the eyes of some people in the Lighthouse, it stirred up an undercurrent.
Although some of the lighthouse dwellers did not go down to the ground, they learned some information from those who did.
They all knew that the Guiyuan Heart Method was only the first step; there was another training method that could help people gain supernatural abilities.
Those who are enlightened may not understand. Those with supernatural abilities, however, understand perfectly well.
There's a superhuman on the lighthouse!
That's Jingyuan!
The people of the Lighthouse all know Jingyuan's strength.
Controlling objects remotely, killing without a trace. Flying through the air, like a god.
When Charles launched his coup, Mark wouldn't have become the city lord so easily if it weren't for Jingyuan's superpowers.
These upper-class citizens also know their own limitations.
Imagine if, in the future, a group of ordinary people from the lower classes suddenly transformed into figures like Jing Yuan; wouldn't their identities as upper-class citizens and ordinary people be reversed?
They will become the new mortals.
Moreover, they are the kind of new mortals that can be identified at a glance without even looking at their identity tags.
How could they possibly accept this!
So, in an abandoned room filled with junk at the lighthouse, a gathering was being held in secret.
Each of them was wearing a cloak, and these cloaks were the same ones they wore when they attended the Light and Shadow Society's blessing ceremony.
A group of people were discussing in a lively manner.
"Hmph! You didn't see how happy those lowly mortals were today! They really think they can turn the tables!"
"Today, one of my own mortals dared to try and teach me how to do things! If it were before, I would have whipped him to death long ago!"
"These commoners are getting more and more arrogant! They think they can boss people around just because they know a little bit of technology, and they're becoming increasingly unruly!"
"When Mark ascended to the throne, I knew this day would come. When Mark was still the commander of the Hunters, he often secretly distributed supplies to the Dust People. I thought that after he became the city lord, he would abolish the Three Laws, but I didn't expect that he would not abolish the Three Laws, but instead pulled this stunt!"
"With Lord Morgan still alive, Mark wouldn't dare to abolish the Three Laws!"
"But if those people he's training grow up, whether they're useless or not is just a matter of a word!"
"So we can't wait until that day!"
"So what do we do?"
"I propose that we rescue Lord Morgan and Chairman Charles and let them take back control!"
"Hmph! Even if they come out, how could they possibly defeat Jing Yuan?"
"Jingyuan is all alone..."
"Haven't you witnessed his abilities? Morgan and Charles were powerless against him. What do you expect them to do?"
“I don’t think there’s any need to consider Jingyuan. He and Mark are both on the surface now. Since they like the surface so much, let’s leave them there! We’ll take the Lighthouse and go back to our old lives!”
"That being said, there are ways to avoid the Devouring Beasts on the ground, as well as special abilities, which are still very useful to us."
"We can find a way to get our hands on the learning methods. But we can't delay any longer; we must act quickly. Once those dust people are fully awakened, they won't be so easy to control!"
"That's right! We need to hurry!"
"Alright, it's decided then! Whether we can keep our good life going depends on this one chance!"
"There's no point in thinking about it. If I don't want to become a commoner and a laborer, I have no choice but to take the plunge!"
"Yes! I'd rather die than be made a laborer!"
"Then let's assign tasks now. Who will meet with Morgan, and who will meet with Charles? Let's find out their attitude. If they both back down, we'll start another plan!"
"it is good!"
Chapter 165 The Devouring Beast stares at Guiyuan and his companions!
Steel Flame Fortress.
After dawdling for a day, Jingyuan and the others finally set off.
Uto, the leader of Steelflame Fortress, arranged for a car to take Jingyuan and his group back to Dragonbone Village.
On the Steelflame Fortress side, Quaid was leading the way, along with three young and strong soldiers and a technician.
They were responsible for loading and transporting the metal cylinders.
After they finished packing their things.
Jing Yuan walked towards Utopia and asked with a smile, "Chief Utopia, aren't you coming along?"
Uto shook his head, "I'm not going!"
"Okay, come visit sometime!" Jing Yuan said politely, then got back into his car.
Without much small talk, Qianli started the vehicle and drove towards the tunnel.
Not long after they left, Qianli laughed and said, "You still sent Uto out? He hasn't left Steelflame Fortress in years!"
Sui Xing chuckled from the side, "After all, he's getting old!"
Jingyuan asked in confusion, "What does this have to do with age?"
Shattered Star said to him, "Steelflame Fortress believes in survival of the fittest. If he leaves Steelflame Fortress at his age, and something happens to him, his position will be in jeopardy!"
Jing Yuan nodded, "That's true!"
The vehicle drove out of the outermost gate and entered the wilderness area.
Steelflame Fortress vehicles followed behind them.
Jingyuan glanced back and asked, "Should we go back the way we came?"
Qianli nodded. "Go back the way we came!"
"Okay! I'm going to take a nap. Wake me up if there are any Devouring Beasts!"
Qianli laughed and said, "You killed so many Devouring Beasts on your way here, there probably won't be many left on the way back."
"How many have we killed?"
"Unless there are special circumstances, the Devouring Beasts migrate very slowly. Since all the Devouring Beasts on our route have been killed, there are naturally not many left."
Shattered Star said somewhat speechlessly, "I've never seen anyone enjoy fighting Devouring Beasts so much."
Jingyuan smiled and said, "Never mind if you don't have one. If you get tired of driving, I can switch with you!"
"Thanks!"
Jing Yuan closed his eyes to rest, and then began cultivating his source energy.
