Three months later.
Tiger Soul Research Institute, Feng Qi’s independent office.
Sitting at his desk, Feng Qi was flipping through the latest information about the outside world on his tablet.
He opened the information software and a large amount of information related to him appeared.
[The star of tomorrow shines again. After so many years, he has successfully developed a super cultivation technique that can change human history-Flesh Sacrifice.]
[Flesh Sacrifice is currently in the testing stage and has received unanimous praise from the various cultivation institutes. After Feng Qi returned, he used his abilities to prove himself.]
[Lin Ran commented on Flesh Sacrifice and asserted that this cultivation technique will mark a new milestone in human cultivation.]
[Feng Qi, who had maintained silence and dedicated himself to research for many years, has finally emerged. He utilized Flesh Sacrifice to demonstrate to the world that he was always the most brilliant star in the current era’s cultivation domain.]
Flipping through the relevant reports, Feng Qi’s heart did not waver.
A few days ago, the Flesh Sacrifice test version was officially submitted to the various cultivation institutes for their initial evaluation.
The various research institutes that had obtained the first version of Flesh Sacrifice couldn’t find a problem with it.
There was only one result from the test.
This was a groundbreaking super cultivation technique.
They thought that with the help of Flesh Sacrifice, human cultivation would definitely usher in a new era.
At the same time, the owner of the fog controlled the Tiger Soul Research Institute to contact many cultivation technique magazines and media behind the scenes and launched an overwhelming publicity campaign.
In the name of “Lin Ran,” it kept sending high praises for Flesh Sacrifice to the outside world.
With encouragement from the owner of the fog, Flesh Sacrifice, though not officially released, had already stirred a significant commotion in the outside world.
There were many cultivators who were looking forward to the official release of Flesh Sacrifice.
Correspondingly, Feng Qi, who was nominally the creator of Flesh Sacrifice, became the center of heated discussion in the outside world.
All kinds of good reviews flooded in.
The outside world had a very high evaluation of him now.
They believed that his years of silence were not due to a depletion of his talents but because he was developing the super cultivation technique, Flesh Sacrifice. Under the influence of public opinion, a substantial number of voices from the outside world voluntarily spoke up in his defense.
He opened the comments section and scrolled down.
I had a feeling about this. Given Feng Qi’s past achievements, how could he suddenly go silent? It appears that Feng Qi has been saving up for a major move. It’s truly an honor to be in the same era as him.”
“Back then, when he first entered the Star City Academy, I often heard the seniors talk about the once influential figure, Feng Qi. Now, I finally understand why they admire him so much. I didn’t expect him to promote the development of modern cultivation alone.”
“I feel remorseful. When we were debating whether Feng Qi had exhausted his talent back then, I also took part. Now, it’s clear that I was short-sighted. He truly deserves to be hailed as the rising star of humanity.”
This was the power of public opinion.
Those who controlled public opinion could easily spread the content they wanted and guide the people to believe it.
It would also make them think that what they saw was right.
This was also the reason why the Scarlet Research Institute, which had always kept a low profile, found it difficult to resist the attacks of public opinion of the Science and Technology Research Institute.
However, this time, the owner of the fog was manipulating public opinion to create a persona for him.
It was preparing to build a God Statue in the future.
This step was similar to the process of the owner of the fog possessing Lin Ran in the previous timeline and then creating momentum for him.
The only difference was that this time, it was even more thorough.
Under the influence of the Miracle Bracelet, the owner of the fog was no longer satisfied with creating a historical figure or hero.
It wanted to create a living god for humanity.
It continuously obtained the power of faith from the spiritual level to help it increase its strength.
The first step of the plan had begun.
After Flesh Sacrifice officially passed the joint evaluation of the various cultivation institutes, it could be officially promoted to the outside world.
At that moment, the external assessment of Flesh Sacrifice would contribute to establishing a “God setting”.
He had no doubt that the owner of the fog’s plan was feasible.
At the very least, the public opinion had proven that the public’s evaluation of him had gradually begun to “deify”.
Putting down the tablet, he cast his gaze at the owner of the fog not far away.
At this moment, the owner of the fog had its eyes closed. Its body was suspended above the sofa, and its body was enveloped by the surging fog.
On the coffee table in front of it were eight extremely high-purity S-grade spiritual stones.
At this moment, Spiritual Qi kept flowing out and entering the owner of the fog’s body.
The production of this type of spiritual stones was extremely low. They were generally produced in domain fields with higher calamity ratings and were worth a lot.
Moreover, such high-purity spiritual stones were only supplied to the various research institutes and the military. Private companies had no way of buying and researching them.
However, after the owner of the fog took control of the Tiger Soul Research Institute, these resources became supplements for it to increase its strength.
Compared to the time when it controlled the Death Star Number Three Combat Team in the Former Days Eastern Supply Area, the benefits that the Tiger Soul Research Institute brought to the owner of the fog were even greater.
The monthly allocation of research resources was something that the Death
Star Number Three Combat team had never been able to compare to.
During this period, the owner of the fog had subtly changed the structure of the Tiger Soul Research Institute.
The way it controlled the Tiger Soul Research Institute was entirely different from the Night Shadow Race.
While the Night Shadow Race controlled the Tiger Soul Research Institute, most of the spiritual resources they obtained every month would be delegated to the Tiger Soul Research Institute’s headquarters and various sub-base research projects.
It was especially so for the research of spells. It was a project that the Night Shadow Race focused on developing..
