What’s the point of cultivating immortality if you don’t have money?.
Chapter 285 Dao Seed Genealogy
Chapter 285 Dao Seed Genealogy
The feather book moved without wind, and the pages had naturally turned to the second chapter of the Dao Seed Genealogy along with Zhang Yu’s thoughts.
On the page, a figure with Zhang Yu as the prototype emerged, but the surroundings were blank, without any words, nor any other patterns or symbols.
“What does it mean?”
Looking at the simple figure on the page, Zhang Yu fell into deep thought.
Just when he had been trying over and over again and still couldn’t figure out how this so-called Tao Seed Spectrum worked and what effects it had.
Suddenly Zhang Yu’s eyes moved and he looked at Yu Xinghan beside him.
Previously, when Zhang Yu was practicing the 72 foundation-building and body-refining exercises, he had to go outside to practice because the dormitory room was too small.
But ever since he pushed the Seventy-Two Forms to level 20 and began practicing the Foundation Building and Mind Refining Methods, he has been practicing in the dormitory with the others.
Looking at Yu Xinghan beside him at this moment, Zhang Yu discovered that something emerged on the other person that he had never seen before.
“Three Eyes? What is this?”
Three-Eye Divine Power (Spiritual Root)
This line of words was like a label, stuck on Yu Xinghan’s chest.
When Zhang Yu focused his attention on this label, he felt a mysterious feeling or information that was difficult to describe in words.
“Is this the Tao Seed?”
Zhang Yu tried to describe what he felt in his mind: “Everyone in the world has different potentials and talents on the path to immortality.”
“The so-called Dao Seed can be said to be the essence of the potential contained in the body of a cultivator. It symbolizes a person’s immortal talent, but it is often not fully stimulated.”
“By helping others develop Tao seeds, the Tao Seed Chart can copy and record them, and then have an effect on myself.”
Zhang Yu thought to himself: “In short, Dao Seed can be said to be a person’s immortal talent. If I help to develop it, I can eventually copy one to myself.”
Thinking of this, Zhang Yu suddenly became excited. While he was summarizing the effects of the Dao Seed Spectrum in his mind, he looked at Le Mulan and Zhang Pianpian.
I saw that Le Mulan had: Deep Cold Dharma Vein (mana)
However, there was nothing on Zhang Pianpian’s body, and no information of Tao Seed could be seen at all.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, “Based on my sister’s performance, how could she not have immortal talent? No Dao Seed?”
“It should be that in order to see the Dao Seed in the other person, certain conditions must be met.”
“And I have not yet met the requirement to be able to see the Tao seed in my sister.”
Zhang Yu was unable to figure out the trick for a while, so he put it aside temporarily and focused on looking at the Tao seeds on Yu Xinghan and Le Mulan, feeling the mysterious aura contained in them.
As he continued to observe, he gradually gained more information.
“There are different types of Dao seeds. Yu Xinghan’s three-eye supernatural power is a spiritual root type of Dao seed, while Le Mulan’s deep cold veins are a magic power type of Dao seed.”
“And of the same type of Tao Seed, only one can be effective at the same time.”
Thinking of this, Zhang Yu smiled: “But that means that different types of Dao seeds can take effect at the same time.”
Zhang Yu continued to feel the mysterious aura coming from the Dao seeds of the two people, and realized: “Yu Xinghan’s three-eye magical power needs to help him improve the fusion degree of his spiritual roots. It can only be developed when the fusion degree is increased to at least 9%.”
“Le Mulan’s Deep Cold Dharma Vein is breathing in and out spiritual energy with her, circulating the magic power into her body, and using the high-quality magic power to help her improve the quality of her magic power.”
Zhang Yu recalled the instructions in the mana class and estimated that the quality of his mana must be high enough before he could inject it into Le Mulan’s body.
“If we raise the quality of her mana to over 150%, we will be able to develop this deep cold vein.”
However, even though he knew all this, Zhang Yu did not rush to find Yu Xinghan and Le Mulan to practice. Instead, he closed his eyes and calmed down the agitated emotions in his heart first.
“The Dao Seed Spectrum adds a new dimension of strength for me, allowing me to collect many immortal talents for myself.”
When he thought of this, Zhang Yu felt an indescribable excitement. He seemed to be able to see his path to immortality becoming wider and wider, and he could see himself constantly climbing to the top.
“But… don’t be anxious, Zhang Yu.”
In fact, in the process of understanding the Dao Seed Spectrum, Zhang Yu felt a constant surge of impulse in his heart, and he wanted to start experimenting on the spot. It would be best if he could immediately develop the Dao Seeds in Yu Xinghan and Le Mulan, and then copy them to himself.
“But you can’t be impatient when it comes to cultivation.”
“Besides, with my current abilities, I am not capable of developing their Dao seeds.”
Zhang Yu gradually calmed down the excitement and impulse in his heart, and his mind regained calm and rationality.
“In the current situation, my top priority is to practice the basic skills first, master the university holy body, and improve my subsequent practice efficiency. From then on, everything I do will be twice as effective with half the effort.”
When Zhang Yu first obtained the Holy Communion in high school, his biggest regret was that it came too late.
Therefore, he would never make the same mistake again this time. He must first master the University Holy Body, improve his practice efficiency, and then start practicing in all aspects.
“As the saying goes, sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood…”
Having made up his mind, Zhang Yu suppressed all distracting thoughts and once again devoted himself to practicing the foundation-building and mind-refining method.
So in the following time, except for the daily class time, Zhang Yu devoted himself to practicing the basic skills of the foundation-building period.
As Zhang Yu’s daily food was gradually eaten up, the synthetic food he brought was gradually replaced with second-level medicines.
It was dinner time again that day, and Yu Xinghan asked, “Who has a discount today?”
Le Mulan said: “I got a coupon.”
“Pay in three-month installments and you can avoid handling fees.”
Shops appeared in Yu Xinghan’s eyes: “Which one should we order?” Zhang Pianpian said, “Let’s go to ‘Capsules of Gambling on a Pharmacist’. The medicines here are all produced by the original factory. They are not processed again after entering the store. They are not hand-made medicines, so the quality is guaranteed.”
A moment later, there was a knock on the door, and the delivery man shouted from outside: “The medicine is here.”
Yu Xinghan quickly opened the door to get the takeaway, and saw the lightning-fast delivery man throwing the prepared medicines at the doorsteps of the surrounding dormitories.
He didn’t think much of it, after all, paying for the medicine in installments was really cheap.
Yu Xinghan thought to himself, “College students are at the age where they should use their bodies to make money and eat a lot and take good medicine.”
He opened the takeaway package, first took out the edible cement given by the collection store, and then he began to distribute the medicine.
Zhang Yu took a handful of physical strength capsules, nutritional capsules, and energy capsules and swallowed them all in one gulp.
Among them, the physical strength capsules restore the physical strength consumed by practice, the nutritional capsules satisfy the various nutrients needed by the body, and the energy capsules are more comprehensive than the nerve fillers. While restoring energy, they also completely eliminate the need for sleep for practitioners.
After Zhang Yu swallowed the medicine, he sighed: “It is indeed cheap.”
“Even if you practice every day and consume a lot of energy, and take medicine for six meals, it will only cost you about 0.02 spirit coins a month, and 0.24 spirit coins a year.”
On the other side, after taking the medicine, Yu Xinghan felt the medicinal power in his stomach gradually dissolving, bringing with it a stream of warm current that gradually flowed to his limbs and bones.
But during this process, Yu Xinghan felt that his gastrointestinal digestion was intensifying. He was like a vicious beast, greedily digesting everything inside. He even wanted to digest his stomach and intestines itself due to lack of food.
Yu Xinghan quickly stuffed a piece of cement into his mouth, frowned and swallowed it, then he felt his gastrointestinal tract gradually calm down.
After doing all this, he felt the cement pressing in his stomach and looked at Zhang Yu beside him with some envy: “This kid is really happy not having to eat cement.”
Le Mulan, who was on the other side, heard Zhang Yu’s sigh about the cheapness and reminded him, “But if you eat these for a long time, the burden on your internal organs will increase, which can easily cause liver and kidney damage, immune system suppression, and cardiovascular problems. The key is that the longer you eat them… the more likely you are to develop cancer.”
“The money saved by then will be lost on medical expenses.”
Le Mulan knew that this had nothing to do with drug poisoning or erysipelas, it was just a side effect of long-term medication. This was what the elders of the Le family on the second floor told her.
Zhang Pianpian nodded: “Remember, you can only take it for 5 years at most, then you should change to the Bigu Pill, otherwise the risk will start to outweigh the benefit.”
Fu Ji heard this and said, “If you can’t make enough money to afford the fasting pills when you are young, you will gradually become ill. The money you save is used for medical treatment, and in order to treat the disease, you have to save money to continue to take medicine… Hehe, these pharmaceutical companies on the second floor are really eating two meals a day, so people on the first floor can’t stay.”
She said to Zhang Yu: “After you have achieved success in your cultivation, you still have to make money quickly so that you can eat the fasting pills as soon as possible.”
After taking the medicine, Zhang Yu continued to practice without stopping.
A few days later, in addition to upgrading the Foundation Building Mind Refining Method to level 20, he also upgraded the Foundation Building Breathing Method to level 20, and pushed the Martial Arts Strength Guide to level 12.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, “After I complete this martial arts strength guide, I will only need 4 skills to complete the university holy body, and I still need 6 skills.”
Seeing Zhang Yu’s obsession with the basic exercises, Yu Xinghan couldn’t help but remind him, “It’s been more than a week since the class started. Why are you still practicing the basic exercises?”
“Your stats haven’t improved much, your overall score hasn’t moved, and your ranking has dropped one place.”
The so-called comprehensive score is the comprehensive evaluation score of a student by Wanfa University, which is composed of student credits, test scores, competition results, projects, etc., and also includes basic data such as the student’s Taoism, magic power, physical strength, etc.
Since the new students in the foundation-building class have just started school, basic data currently accounts for the majority of their comprehensive scores.
Zhang Yu looked at his ranking, which had dropped to 14th in the class, but said indifferently, “Don’t worry, I know what’s going on.”
He thought to himself, “If I can’t even accept falling behind for a while in order to save money, why should I cultivate immortality? Why should I cultivate my Tao heart?”
He was seen standing outside the dormitory door, his hands and feet twitching at high speed, leaving behind afterimages and making twisted and deformed movements.
It seems that any trick in his hands will be deformed and distorted, giving people a feeling of extreme perfunctoriness and laziness.
“It’s quick… but this is too half-hearted.”
Watching this scene, Yu Xinghan shook his head secretly. He really couldn’t understand what Zhang Yu was doing.
He already couldn’t understand why the other party was so focused on the basic skills, and he couldn’t understand why he practiced so perfunctorily.
“Forget it, whatever you want.”
Zhang Pianpian also noticed Zhang Yu’s practice, but did not pay any attention to him.
She thought to herself, “My brother’s mysterious talent should not be underestimated. He must have his reasons for doing this.”
Not only did Zhang Pianpian not care about Zhang Yu’s thoughts, but she was curious about what the result of Zhang Yu’s practice would be.
On the other side, Le Mulan has not yet established his foundation, and has no idea about the cultivation arrangements of the foundation-building ancestor.
And that night, Bai Zhenzhen’s package finally arrived.
When Zhang Yu opened the package and smelled the strong meaty aroma emanating from it, he found that Yu Xinghan, Le Mulan and Zhang Pianpian around him had all turned their heads.
Yu Xinghan asked excitedly: “Did Bai Zhenzhen send you some dried meat?”
Zhang Yu nodded slightly, looked at the three people and said, “Let’s eat together.”
After taking the jerky and swallowing it, the three of them showed a hint of happiness on their faces.
After eating, Zhang Yu also felt an indescribable joy.
That night, when he contacted Bai Zhenzhen again, he curiously asked about the origin of the dried meat, but Bai Zhenzhen smiled and said, “It’s delicious. I’ll send you more.”
“This is happy jerky. Eating it can boost your mood, offset negative emotions, and make you more motivated to study and practice.”
“This is good stuff. You four can just eat it by yourselves. Don’t let anyone else see it.”
In the following time, Zhang Yu continued to immerse himself in the basic exercises. In the blink of an eye, several days passed, and he finally accumulated six 20-level exercises for the University Saint Body.
Primary-University Holy Body (6/6): Drug load, absorption, and metabolism capabilities are increased to the peak of foundation building
