Chapter 759 Dao Seed? Immortal Spiritual Root? Reincarnation Memory?
After arriving at the 11th floor of Kunxu, Magnetism God was sent to a training school along with other Nascent Soul Gods.
The entire school is in a closed environment, and except for certain specific activities, they are not allowed to wander around on the 11th floor.
However, the school occupies a large area, like a small city, and its facilities are very complete. The basic cultivation resources are also very abundant, which can meet the basic needs of the Nascent Soul cultivators.
Besides the Magnetic Extreme God Lord and his group of Nascent Soul cultivators, there were already many Nascent Soul cultivators from the 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th levels in the city. Most of them were preparing to participate in the sect's outsourced work, while a small number were newly promoted Nascent Soul cultivators. They are all currently receiving training in this city.
Everyone here is at the Nascent Soul stage, and Magnetism God Lord has only broken through for less than two years, so it's natural that he would find it difficult to gain the envy or respect of others.
At their level, what they value most is their relationship with the sect.
Those who came up from the 7th to 10th floors, including many veterans who have been promoted for many years, will stay in the sect to be responsible for outsourced work. They will work in Kunxu above the 11th floor and enjoy some of the sect's benefits, so they subconsciously feel superior to others.
As for the new Transformation Gods like Magnet and Green Wood who came from the 5th floor to participate in the training and would eventually return, these outsourced Transformation Gods held many disdain in their hearts.
Magnetism God also understood that although she could dominate a region and command the wind and rain on the 2nd to 5th floors, when she came to the sect, she was just one of the many Nascent Soul cultivators who were transferred up from below to receive training. It was impossible for her to be as content as she was below.
Now that he had seen the list of new clan affairs officers, Magnetism God seemed to have a solid foundation of confidence. Whenever he encountered a Nascent Soul God, he would talk to them about the clan examination.
Then, the Magnetic Extreme God Lord unleashed rays of divine light and arrived before yet another God Lord of Transformation.
Magnetic God: "Is the examination of lineage difficult?"
The veteran cultivator said, "Of course, it's as difficult as ascending to heaven. Take the eleventh level of the sect examination, for example. It's like a thousand troops crossing a single-plank bridge. Many people have blood ties with sect disciples, but they've been trying for decades and still haven't passed..."
After patiently listening to the other party's story, the Magnetic God asked sincerely, "I have a student who aspired to enter a sect during his undergraduate studies. Is the sect entrance exam really that difficult? Do you think my student still has a chance of passing?"
The veteran scoffed, mocking Magnet Lord's delusions, and began to explain how low and impossible the probability was for someone from the lower class to enter a sect, and how much the sect had tightened its grip on this aspect in recent years...
Magnetism God frowned and said, "Could it be that I saw it wrong?"
After projecting the list of newly admitted clan affairs officers, she pointed to Zhang Yu and said, "Zhang Yu, True Lord Zhuyi, a graduate of Wanfa... Judging from this information, he should be my disciple."
The Divine Lord of Transformation before him suddenly widened his eyes, and after a moment his expression changed abruptly, and his figure shrank slightly... Unconsciously, he was now a head shorter than the Divine Lord of Magnetic Extremes.
The senior figure politely said, "Magnetic God, you have done a good job of teaching your disciples."
Magnetism God Lord went to each of the Nascent Soul cultivators one by one, asking them about the difficulty of the examination, whether he had misread the list, or what kind of organization the Imperial Law Pavilion was and whether it was a powerless government office.
Even those outsourced Nascent Soul cultivators who usually looked down on Magnetism, Green Wood, and the Ten Schools' Nascent Soul cultivators all lost their tempers on this day. Some glanced at the list of recruits, some turned away with a pout, while others put on a smiling face and greeted Magnetism.
Only in their respective small group chats did someone murmur: "So what if he passed the sect affairs officer exam? Anyone who didn't know better would think he'd become the sect leader."
Some people sneered behind his back: "Even after he gets ashore, he might not recognize his original master." [Smile]
Regardless, joining a sect is something to be envied, and even cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage yearn for it.
After all, in Kunxu today, the only way to reach the pinnacle of immortality is within a sect.
Especially for those at the Nascent Soul stage, only by entering a sect can they possibly advance further.
Even if a disciple or student only receives a little help from the sect in the future, it will bring them endless benefits.
The Magnetic God Lord, who held absolute power in the lower levels, had been feeling stifled ever since arriving at the training school on the 11th floor. Only now did he finally feel a sense of triumph.
"Nie Lian, can you help me take a look? There are too many names, I can't find them all. How many of our Wanfa students have been admitted to the sect?"
As he spoke, the Magnetic Extreme God Lord projected a list of names filled with names of the sect affairs officers to be hired, and sincerely asked the Evil Lotus God Lord for help.
Lord Nielian glanced at it casually and said irritably, "Even if you get into a sect, they might not remember you. Haven't you heard of the price some cultivators paid to get into a sect?"
"Zhang Yu was able to pass the exam in such a short time, but he must have paid a heavy price."
Magnetism God smiled slightly and said, "Zhang Yu is different. He will definitely still remember his master."
Lord Nielian smirked: "Then let's see if he comes to see you after a while."
The Magnetic God Lord snorted coldly: "He just passed the exam to become a clan affairs officer. He must be very busy with work now. So what if he doesn't come to see me?"
She zoomed in on the list and searched, "Come on, Nie Lian, let me help you find out which position your disciple got?"
Lord Nielian flicked his sleeve and turned away, transforming into a beam of divine light and disappearing in the next moment, leaving only a lingering sound wave: "No need to look anymore. I, Nielian, don't need to rely on students or disciples. I rely solely on my own abilities on the path of immortality."
Yin Quan Shenjun, standing to the side, scanned the list of successful candidates several times before finally sighing, "Didn't you pass the exam?"
On the other side, Chipan Shenjun of King Kong University looked at Qingmu Shenjun beside him and sighed, "I never thought Zhang Yu would be able to join the sect."
He recalled how he had helped Zhang Yu create his Nascent Soul, and said to the Azure Wood Divine Lord beside him, "Azure Wood, do you still remember the three things you promised to help me with?"
Qingmu Shenjun said, "Of course I remember, but it was my promise that had nothing to do with Zhang Yu."
Zhipan Divine Lord shook his head and said, "Qingmu, Zhang Yu has only been in the sect for a short time now, which is the time when your relationship is at its peak. If you have the opportunity to contact him later, you should seize the time to make your move."
"We have cultivated for many years, and we should know that... people can change after all. This is especially true after entering a sect these days."
"Haven't you heard about the situation on the 11th floor? The longer they stay in a sect, the less they care about relationships outside the sect."
"These students who got into Wanfa University, it won't be long... before they stop considering themselves Wanfa University students."
Aoki no Shinjun didn't speak, but looked at Zhang Yu on the list and felt a pang of emotion, suddenly realizing that he was getting old.
This feeling of aging did not stem from mental or physical weakness, but rather from the comparison between myself and Zhang Yu.
"Given my potential, reaching the Nascent Soul stage is already my limit."
"But Zhang Yu's future already holds infinite possibilities."
"There's nothing more I can do to help him on his journey through the sect."
Thinking of this, Lord Qingmu felt a sense of unease. His disciple was growing up strong and heading towards a bright future, while he could only stand still and watch the other's figure grow further and further away.
...
After finishing his speech, Zhang Yu returned to the research association in the airship.
Watching Zhang Yu's departing figure, Deng Bingding received a message from a higher-level deity: [Thumbs up][Thumbs up][Thumbs up]
Seeing the message with three thumbs up, Deng Bingding felt a surge of excitement, knowing that the higher-ups were very satisfied with today's arrangements and Zhang Yu's speech.
Deng Bingding made up his mind that he must take good care of the publicity for Zongkao, and it would be best to get Zhang Yu to participate in a few more events.
"If I can stand out and take charge of more work related to the normalization of the examination process... I might be able to get promoted."
Deng Bingding understood that with the normalization of the examination of lineage, there was a lot to do across the 1st to 10th levels, and this involved a great deal of merit, which was now being coveted by countless righteous gods.
Too many righteous gods want to make a name for themselves in this process and gain the opportunity for promotion.
Meanwhile, Zhang Yu encountered Bei Wufeng, Jin Jun, and Yan Qianji on his way back.
Jin Jun and his two companions left the laboratory and rushed to the fifth floor of Kunxu to greet Zhang Yu. Along the way, they discovered that there were quite a few people who shared the same idea as them. In particular, the Heavenly Court had taken the initiative to arrange many people, making them even more inconspicuous.
Fortunately, the three were still nominally Zhang Yu's subordinates, and after some communication, they finally boarded the flying boat.
Upon meeting Zhang Yu, the three of them appeared somewhat reserved. After all, Zhang Yu now held the additional identity of a clan affairs officer, which seemed to create a thick barrier between them.
However, Zhang Yu saw through their thoughts at a glance and casually said, "You guys are also planning to take the sect exam next year, right?"
"Ask me anything you want to ask, and I'll try my best to answer."
Seeing that Zhang Yu still seemed to be as approachable as before, Yan Qianji grew bolder and asked directly, "True Lord, your physical body has not been refined into a Dharma Body, and you do not use the Dharma Body much in your daily activities and cultivation. Is this to train yourself?"
"Would doing this increase the success rate of the examination?"
Zhang Yu said helplessly, "I don't recommend you do that."
"I just didn't have money before, and then I didn't have time. If I have the opportunity after I go to the sect, I will still refine and strengthen my physical body."
When the three asked him for advice, Zhang Yu shared some of his insights on the examination of Confucian classics on the way back, which made all three of them feel that they had gained a lot.
Meanwhile, Deng Bingding sent out new event invitations. Zhang Yu selected a few to attend and declined the rest.
Zhang Yu knew that since he would be heading to the sect in a month, he still had a lot to do in the remaining month.
"When I first joined the sect, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to act as freely as I do now."
"As for weapon crafting... once you go to the Imperial Law Pavilion, I'm afraid there won't be many opportunities for that for the time being."
"We need to hurry and make the most of this month to prepare as much as possible for our future path in the sect."
After some thought, Zhang Yu had already made arrangements for the next month.
...
Inside the laboratory, Zhang Yu closed his eyes and pondered for a moment before looking at the blueprints designed by Ye Xingli and said, "Senior Sister, what do you think of this design?"
At this moment, Zhang Yu and Ye Xingli are working together to complete the design of a Foundation Establishment stage magic weapon.
Zhang Yu's purpose in doing this was naturally to upgrade Ye Xingli's Dao Seed "Spiritual Essence Artifact Heart" to level 2.
To achieve this goal, he and Ye Xingli need to work together to design 10 Foundation Building Magic Treasures.
This goal is not actually difficult, but in the past two years, facing wave after wave of pressure and difficulties, and one formidable opponent after another, Zhang Yu has been far too busy.
Whether it was initially focusing all his efforts on breaking through to the Golden Core stage, later focusing all his efforts on breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, or promoting the cultivation techniques of the Immortal Sect, designing spatial magic treasures, preparing for the Sect Examination... these things came one after another more urgently, none of them could be delayed, and they occupied almost all of his time and energy.
Under such circumstances, Zhang Yu didn't even have time to upgrade his own basic data and numerous cultivation techniques, let alone the Dao Seed "Spiritual Essence and Artifact Heart".
Fortunately, now that the time has come, he finally has the leisure to complete the upgrade of the Spirit Core.
Looking at the stockings she designed with Zhang Yu, Ye Xingli thought to herself, "My junior brother... even when he's so busy, he still comes to give me pointers on magic weapon design?"
In Ye Xingli's view, what benefit could Zhang Yu possibly gain from asking her to design a low-level magic weapon together? Aside from the fact that he wanted to guide her... she couldn't think of any other possibility.
Coincidentally, the position Ye Xingli planned to apply for at the Myriad Laws Sect was also related to weapon crafting.
"Junior brother came here specifically to give me pointers, is it because you hope I can pass the exam for a weapon-refining position in the sect?"
The thought that Zhang Yu was not only going to take her up there, but also willing to spend so much time guiding her made Ye Xingli think: "Junior Brother has invested so much in me... Could it be that he... wants to be my father?"
Ye Xingli recalled the sect customs she had learned from True Monarch Xinghuo and thought to herself, "If it were my junior brother... I wouldn't mind if he were my father."
Thinking of this, Ye Xingli looked at Zhang Yu solemnly and said, "Junior brother, I will definitely pass the exam to enter the sect."
Seeing Ye Xingli's determined gaze, Zhang Yu nodded: "Senior sister, you can definitely do it."
Ye Xingli asked, "Junior brother, speaking of which... why did you design stockings?"
Zhang Yu said, "After Azhen went to the Heavenly Sword Sect, I'm afraid I won't be able to see her for a long time, so I wanted to help her make some preparations, such as bringing more stockings."
"After all, stockings are easy to wear and are close-fitting equipment. They can be said to be somewhere between a magic body and a magic weapon. I think stockings are the most suitable equipment for all cultivators."
"I plan to design some basic styles first to accumulate experience, and then design a Nascent Soul level style for her."
...
Quiet room.
Zhang Yu placed one hand on Yu Xinghan's back and poured streams of magical power into the other's body.
He is helping Yu Xinghan improve his magical power in order to further upgrade his Three-Eyed Divine Power.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "After we go to the sect, Yu Xinghan and I will have to work in different places for a while, so I'm afraid we won't be able to help him improve in the short term."
"If I can upgrade my Three-Eyed Divine Power by one level before entering the sect, it should be of great help to my future work in the Imperial Law Hall."
Although the Three-Eyed Divine Power underwent two transformations brought about by evil god rituals, its level on the Dao Seed Chart has never been improved.
At this moment, Zhang Yu only needs to help Yu Xinghan raise his magic power to over 8000 to complete the upgrade of the Three-Eyed Divine Power.
Yu Xinghan has been breaking through to the Golden Core stage for almost two years, and his magical power is now getting closer and closer to 8,000 units.
Feeling Zhang Yu continuously channeling his magical power into him, Yu Xinghan couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Good brother!"
Looking back on the journey so far, Yu Xinghan knew in his heart that Zhang Yu was already his most trusted companion.
"If I didn't have to choose the first gender, and if I absolutely had to choose a man for dual cultivation, I would choose you. Even Teacher Xinghuo would have to be second."
"Thank you for your kind thought." Zhang Yu pursed his lips upon hearing this and said, "But if such a good thing really exists, I still suggest you choose True Lord Starfire."
...
Besides Ye Xingli and Yu Xinghan's Dao Seeds, there's also Bai Zhenzhen's Dao Seed... Zhang Yu also wanted to help her complete an upgrade before entering the sect.
After all, Bai Zhenzhen was admitted to the Heavenly Sword Sect, and once she entered the sect, she would be further away than Yu Xinghan and Ye Xingli.
However, Zhang Yu had a concern about the next level of improvement for the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo.
"The Azure Lotus Sword Embryo had already been upgraded from a Heavenly Spiritual Root to a Divine Spiritual Root."
"During his time at university, the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo grew stronger with each improvement."
Zhang Yu could sense that the next upgrade of the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo... its strength might surpass the realm of divine roots.
"A Celestial Spiritual Root... Will the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo transform into a Celestial Spiritual Root?"
Zhang Yu was unsure, but he was unwilling to gamble.
Therefore, before upgrading the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo, he planned to inquire about the situation through an old acquaintance, to find out if Bai Zhenzhen would encounter trouble in the Heavenly Sword Sect if she possessed a Celestial Spirit Root, and if so, whether there was any way to avoid it.
Looking at Kuang Tianqing before him, Zhang Yu asked, "Has the Samsara Group agreed to my request?"
Through his previous communication with Kuang Tianqing, Zhang Yu established a cooperative relationship with the Samsara Group.
After Zhang Yu used the "Hell Cleansing Soul Scripture" to help Kuang Tianqing pass the interview, he could obtain a copy of the deceased's memories through the reincarnation system.
Today is the day to fulfill that promise.
Kuang Tianqing nodded and said, "Your access has been granted. You can now try to use the 'Hell Cleansing Soul Scripture' to communicate with reincarnation and obtain a copy of the deceased's memories."
Zhang Yu nodded, closed his eyes, and began to circulate the "Hell Cleansing Soul Scripture".
A moment later, a figure suddenly struggled out of his body, like a self-aware clone, slowly detaching itself from Zhang Yu's flesh and blood.
Looking at the person crawling out of his body, Zhang Yu slowly sighed, "Long time no see."
Organizing the outline takes a lot of time, and I haven't finished yet. I'm short over 900 words today; I'll add them later.
