My Apocalypse System Arrives 10 Years Early

Chapter 546: Chapter 343: Star Sand at the Fingertips, Heaven and Earth in the Palm: Li Sheng’s Helium-3 Revolution and the Extraordinary Fire Seed

A sweeping proclamation of three thousand words.

When Li Xiang released this pact, every country was dumbfounded. The Apocalypse was coming, and according to him, Space Exotic Beasts would be blotting out the sky. If they couldn’t use nuclear weapons, how were they supposed to fight?

A global uproar ensued, with fervent discussions erupting everywhere.

If an ordinary person had issued this declaration, or even a major world power, most people wouldn’t have bothered to listen. They would use nukes if they had to. Who would pay any attention? It was the Apocalypse; who cared what you said? ’It’d be a show of mercy if I didn’t drop a nuke on *you*.’

But this was from the strongest man on Earth, a being who had physically set foot on the Moon. His word was his bond; calling his proclamations inviolable would not be an exaggeration. No one dared to take it lightly. This was one of the reasons for Li Xiang’s prior show of force—to establish this very authority.

Thus, Li Xiang had no choice but to bring out the wisdom of the Instructor’s *On Protracted War*. The battle against the Exotic Beasts could not be rushed; it had to be a gradual process.

Relying on existing technological weapons, even nuclear bombs, would not be enough to save the situation.

There were only two paths. The first was for all of humanity to practice Cultivation, using Extraordinary Particles to go from the Extraordinary to the Saint Realm. With enough Extraordinary Beings, they could launch a counter-offensive and carve a bloody path to survival.

The second was to push technological development and strive to create more powerful weapons. However, this path was likely even more difficult than the first and would probably take much longer.

After all, with current technology, humanity couldn’t even leave the Solar System. How could they possibly deal with Deep Space Exotic Beasts?

But Cultivation could.

Li Xiang’s methods naturally involved a combination of benevolence and might—a carrot and a stick. One without the other would not suffice.

He compiled *Li’s Breathing Method and Body Techniques*. This manual contained several thousand different breathing methods and body techniques, though all were at an introductory level—”Volume One,” so to speak.

With Jiang Cai’Er’s help, versions were made available in every language across the globe.

Li Xiang suggested that everyone begin practicing immediately, training until the movements became muscle memory. That way, when darkness fell and the Extraordinary Particles surged forth, they could step into the Extraordinary Realm that much sooner.

The release of this boon sent the whole world into a frenzy.

Netizen from China: ”Saint Li is so selfless! To think he’d even publicize a secret manual like this.”

”Saint Li’s vision is truly boundless!”

Top comment on the Beautiful Country’s Reddit: ”Is this Li guy trying to kickstart a new era of human evolution? I’ve been practicing *Li’s Turtle Breath Technique* on YouTube every day. My roommate says I look like a constipated sloth... but what if I actually awaken a Superpower?”

Trending on Twitter in India: Under the hashtag #DivineEnvoyBestowsTheMethod, devotees uploaded videos of themselves practicing the Body Techniques by the Ganges River, with the caption: ”Saint Li’s Body Techniques and the dance of Shiva are wonderfully similar!”

On a Japanese forum: ”This is awesome! (fist pump) It’s about time anime settings became reality! All the chuunibyou are petitioning to make ’Chakra Cultivation Class’ a mandatory middle school course!”

Short-form video from an African tribe: A warrior holding a homemade wooden spear demonstrates a modified hunting breathing technique. Set to the music of *Wakanda Forever*, the video broke 100 million views, with the caption: ”Saint Li’s gift allows us to become Black Panthers before the Apocalypse!”

From a Russian combat community: A viral video compilation of people doing squats while drinking vodka, tagged #SiberianColdCurrentBreathingMethod. The top comment read: ”After mastering this breathing technique and going for a winter swim, I feel like I could take on a polar bear!”
