"Have you really mastered this thing from the old times?" Qin Cheng rushed over and looked at the clear handprints on the thick tree trunk, feeling surprised and confused.
The techniques of the old times scattered among the piles of old papers, ranging from physical techniques to meditation, to qigong techniques, internal cultivation methods, etc., the records are quite fragmented.
Nowadays these are called scattered techniques, and many people also call them old techniques.
Although Qin Cheng has been in contact with it over the years, he has always had doubts in his heart. Can he really master it?
Wang Xuan's performance touched him greatly. His flesh and blood palm could actually leave clear handprints on the thick and hard tree trunk. Is there really a way forward for the old technique?!
"According to the old times, what I have is nothing." Wang Xuan shook his head. He was very handsome, and under the bright moonlight, he seemed to be covered with a faint white mist.
Qin Cheng sighed: "Don't compare it with the past. I never believed it at all. In fact, many of those records have long been falsified."
Qin Cheng was also practicing the old techniques. He knew how difficult they were. Just some meditation techniques were enough to cause a person to become schizophrenic.
In today's world of close connection with new stars and brilliant science and technology in deep space, how many people still believe this? Before practicing, my heart was shaken.
However, it was in this context that when Wang Xuan, Qin Cheng and others first entered university, someone approached them and asked them if they were willing to conduct research related to the old techniques.
Wang Xuan had been exposed to the art of dispersion before, and he was immediately interested and agreed on the spot.
As for Qin Cheng, he didn't believe it at all. Only later when he heard that this research was related to certain chaebols and that a huge amount of money was invested, he was surprised and joined in with the attitude of giving it a try.
In the early days, while they were studying their original professional courses in their departments, they also used their spare time to participate in the so-called "old art research."
They found that the so-called research was actually mainly for them to practice on their own.
And someone began to prepare special food for them, all for the purpose of helping them to better practice certain techniques.
They felt more and more that this "research" was not simple at all. The two old professors who taught them the art of dispersion were actually transferred from Xinxing.
Soon, some people could not hold on any longer and quit voluntarily because practicing the old skills was very hard and boring.
The main thing is that in this day and age, people are skeptical of techniques from the past.
However, although many people have withdrawn, there are even more new people joining.
Because it was backed by a chaebol, a huge amount of money was invested in this "research", and they began to increase their efforts to select more suitable people to participate.
It is not only in this city, but also carried out everywhere in the old land, mainly targeting college students. In order to motivate their enthusiasm, there are considerable salary incentives.
There were a lot of people who signed up at the beginning, but after a large-scale selection and more than half a year of elimination, only about fifty people were left.
Most of these people transferred to the university where Wang Xuan and Qin Cheng were studying, while continuing their original majors and forming an "old art experimental class."
Not everyone is like Wang Xuan, who initially joined out of interest.
Transfer students have been promised that after graduation, they will at least be guaranteed a decent and well-paid job.
At this point, everyone realized that this "research" was very unusual, otherwise why would it take so much effort to carry it out?
The "old art textbooks" of the experimental class all have some origins. Some are unique copies from museums, some are rare collections of tycoons, and some are scriptures of certain religions.
For example, a certain internal cultivation method was very famous in the old times, but was eventually lost.
A few years ago, someone found it in a tomb and brought it to light. Now it has been sorted out and become one of the study materials for the experimental class.
In addition, the meals for all students in the traditional art experimental class are prepared by a dedicated person and are very particular.
As they learned more about it, many people were amazed that some of the ingredients were extremely precious and rare, difficult to obtain in the old land, and had to be transported from deep space.
The old professor who taught them the art of breathing once lamented that these ingredients were incredibly expensive even in Nova, let alone transported from deep air.
Some ingredients cannot be bought even if you have money.
Some of these ingredients are produced in the deep sea of Nova and have anti-aging effects, some can replenish blood, and some can keep people energetic.
For people who practice various kinds of magic, dietary supplements are very important.
The old professor once said that some ingredients are quite popular among some older people with surprising identities and backgrounds among rising stars because they can delay aging.
It can be seen how much importance this "research on old techniques" has received.
What was particularly surprising was that not long after, more than twenty new students from Xinxing joined this experimental class.
It has always been the students from the old areas who yearn for the new stars and hope to study abroad, but this time it was the other way around.
With the arrival of these young men and women, some rumors spread one after another, allowing the students of the old art experimental class to gradually understand part of the truth.
"Some organizations, some research institutes, and some chaebols are pursuing immortality!"
At the time, this sentence really caused quite a stir in the traditional art experimental class, and many people were shocked.
To modern people, such pursuit is ridiculous and illusory.
However, throughout the ages, it seems that everyone who has reached the corresponding height has been striving for it.
As early as the Pre-Qin period, legends about immortals, alchemists, etc. had already made people of later generations yearn for them, and even kings were not immune to this.
However, from the Qin Emperor to Emperor Wu of Han, and to other later generations, all failed. Without the elixir of life, no one could succeed.
In this day and age, the so-called myths have long been disproven. How could they possibly exist?
However, it was from a bright new star in science and technology that such news came.
"To be precise, some of the elders and powerful people in the chaebols want to live longer."
Although someone made supplements, it still caused an uproar in the experimental class.
History is always surprisingly similar. Throughout the ages, some great figures who have entered their old age seem to be very unwilling to accept this, wishing to be young and longing for a vibrant body.
Back then, Wang Xuan and Qin Cheng whispered and arranged for those big shots.
"Old men are getting weaker and weaker, so they naturally crave youth. Otherwise, how can they appreciate beautiful women? I have billions of dollars, but I can't squander it anymore. If I were in their place, I would also want to live another 500 years!"
"Old ladies are definitely more ruthless than old men. Their youth has passed, and their former beauty is now covered with wrinkles. For strong women who control a lot of resources and have a strong voice, aging is definitely the natural enemy! If there is a glimmer of hope, old ladies will definitely be crazier than old men and will try every means to restore their youth!"
At that time, several young men and women from Nova rolled their eyes after hearing the two people's whispering, because it seemed to involve some of their elders.
