Chapter 225
On the second day, after a night of fermentation, the discussion about flying cars on Douyin gradually became polarized.
The most intense discussion was under a video shot at the gate of Jujing City. The video received only 500,000 likes, but the number of comments exceeded one million.
There were more than 100,000 replies under just one pinned comment, and this pinned comment was also very simple: Do you think flying cars will replace flying swords in the future?
"I personally think that flying cars will never replace flying swords. Flying swords have existed in Tianyuan Continent for tens of thousands of years and are the most commonly used flying instruments for our cultivators. No matter how good a flying car is, it will never replace the status of a flying sword."
"I think so too. A flying car is just a trick. It is a novelty for a while. How can it replace the status of a flying sword in our hearts?"
"Flying a sword is the romance of cultivators, and what is a flying car?"
"I don't agree. New things are destined to replace old things. The skills are iterating, and the instruments are iterating. If the world stagnates, how can Tianyuan Continent have the prosperity it has today?"
"That's right. Before the flying sword was created, could those ancestors have foreseen that everyone in the future would fly a sword?"
"Whether it's a flying sword or a flying car, it's just a personal preference. You like the freedom of a flying sword, and I like the comfort of a flying car."
"The past is the past, and the present is the present. If I were still young and unmarried, I might like to fly a sword alone, but now I have a family, and I want to give my family a place to shelter from the wind and rain."
"If cultivating immortals is not for making yourself and the people you care about live a better life, then what is the meaning of cultivating immortals?"
"They are all external things. Why don't you use the spirit stones to buy better exercises and better elixirs? Why buy flying cars? You people are just vain and follow the crowd."
"I have spirit stones, so what's wrong with me being vain? The more you say this, the more I want to buy."
"There were no mobile phones before. If you think it was better before, you don't need a mobile phone."
......
The two sides quarreled fiercely, but this did not affect the popularity of the offline sales ceremony held by Sihai Pavilion that day, nor did it affect the holding of the Yida Plaza Auto Show.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, before the Yida Plaza in Jujing City opened, a large number of cultivators from the surrounding areas gathered outside the mall.
Everyone was looking forward to it, looking straight at the mall gate.
Among the crowd, there were more than a dozen old men dressed differently and with a deep and restrained aura, as well as more than a dozen young monks accompanying them.
Qi Tian from Luofu Holy Land and Shao Yu from Canglan Holy Land hid among them wearing sunglasses, and looked around from time to time, fearing that they would be recognized.
After confirming that no one noticed him, Qi Tian carefully said to the Venerable Du'e beside him:
"Venerable, why do you have to come all the way here to buy it? If you like it, why don't you let us buy it back? Now more than a dozen of you Mahayana monks have come here. If people know about it, they will think that we are going to fight with the Demon Sect again."
Hearing his words, Venerable Du'e looked disapproving.
"We have already restrained our auras. Who can know that we are Mahayana? Besides, these old guys were not called by me. They insisted on coming here."
After saying this, Qi Tian couldn't help rolling his eyes and thought to himself: "If you didn't insist on showing off, why would they insist on coming here?"
Just when he thought of this, several impatient young monks just squeezed into their position and accidentally bumped into one of the Mahayana Venerables.
The next second, a strong spiritual pressure burst out from the body of the Mahayana Venerable, and the young monks were blown away on the spot.
At the same time, many monks gathered in the entire Yida Plaza also felt a strong momentum coming towards them, especially some high-level monks, whose faces changed on the spot.
"This momentum is from a Mahayana powerhouse!"
"Mahayana powerhouse! How could a Mahayana powerhouse appear here?"
"It seems to come from that direction."
While speaking, many monks present turned their eyes to the area where Venerable Du'e and others were.
Some low-level cultivators hadn't felt anything yet, but a cultivator with the fusion cultivation showed an expression of disbelief on the spot.
"They are really Mahayana cultivators, and there are more than a dozen of them!"
"More than a dozen Mahayana cultivators! Master, are you sure?"
"It's impossible to be wrong. I, with the fusion cultivation, can't see through their realm. What kind of cultivation can they have?"
"Hiss! More than a dozen Mahayana masters, Sihai Pavilion is good at inviting more than a dozen Mahayana masters to a car show. I said that spirit stones are still useful. As long as there are enough spirit stones, Mahayana masters can also be invited."
......
As time went on, the identities of Du'e Venerable and his group spread more and more, until everyone in the square knew that they were Mahayana masters.
Unconsciously, they retreated to a vacuum area.
Faced with such a result, Qi Tian and other young disciples could only sigh helplessly.
Venerable Du'e and other Mahayana venerables looked indifferent, and even enjoyed it a little, especially when they saw the expressions of respect and fear on everyone's faces.
"Feihong, Feihong, tell me why you are so careless, look, now everything is exposed."
"I told you before we came here that although we are Mahayana people, we must keep a low profile outside. Forget it, if that's the case, then I won't bother pretending and just use the breath-containing technique."
However, before they could be proud for a long time, a cry of surprise suddenly broke out from the onlookers.
"It's Shao Yu! That's Shao Yu over there!"
"Shao Yu? Is he the same Shao Yu who represented Canglan Holy Land and won second place yesterday?
"Yes, yes, that's him, the one who invented the jumping gun. Oh my God, it's really him!"
"I like to watch Shaoyu's live broadcast the most. If it doesn't work, I have to go to him to get an autograph."
"The one next to Shao Yu is Qitian from Luofu Holy Land. He also performed very well yesterday. It was a pleasure to watch him sniper."
While they were talking, this group of young monks who were not very old and obsessed with peace and warmth crowded around Shao Yu and others.
Those who wanted autographs asked for autographs, and those who wanted photos were taken with each other. Each one was more exaggerated and more enthusiastic than the other.
As their identities became known to more people, more and more young monks gathered, and soon they were surrounded by people.
As for the Mahayana masters, Venerable Du'e and others had already been pushed aside by the crowd.
Looking at their own disciples who were surrounded by thousands of young monks, and then looking at themselves who were ignored, the dozen or so Mahayana sages from the Eight Holy Lands couldn't help but look at each other in confusion.
"We, the great Mahayana people, are not as popular as these juniors? What's the point of this?"
One of the Mahayana Venerables said with an unconvinced face.
As soon as he finished speaking, Venerable Du'e patted him on the shoulder.
"Think openly, times have changed, so what if you are a strong Mahayana person? Who can know you if you stay in a cave every day?"
"Come on, I'll treat you to something nice to drink."
"What to drink?"
"Drink milk tea."
A few minutes later, a dozen Mahayana sages were sitting on a bench in the square with a cup of milk tea each, drinking milk tea and waiting for the mall to open.
When the time came to 8:30 in the morning, the door of the mall was officially opened, and the monks who had been waiting for a long time immediately swarmed into the mall.
