After returning to his apartment, Zhang Yu resumed his practice of the Boundless Spring Autumn Zen.

With each of the forty-nine movements practiced, the Longevity Magical Power continuously stimulated the repair and regeneration of every piece of flesh, allowing Zhang Yu Yu's body, which had gradually withered under the cruel training and medication, to be reborn.

Boundless Spring Autumn Zen Level 8 (36/80)

Although he was immersed in cultivation, his conversation with Yun Ni had Shadowless on Zhang Yu.

"Is the Patrol Team... investigating matters Evil God?"

Yun Ni's attention made Zhang Yu feel more pressured.

Although Zhang Pianpian asked the other party to take care of him, he didn't think that the other party would still take care of him after discovering the secret of the Evil God within him.

In order to counter possible reconnaissance by the Patrol Team, Zhang Yu could only speed up the preparations for the Ritual and acquire more counter-reconnaissance capabilities and the ability to obtain more information for interference as soon as possible.

Recalling Zhang Pianpian's words, Zhang Yu sighed inwardly, "Mastering information and exploiting information gaps are essential skills for climbing the ranks in Kunxu."

The next day, with all the materials in place, Zhang Yu brought Fu Ji and Bai Zhenzhen to the Unfinished Building building he was familiar with, preparing to begin Bai Zhenzhen's Wish Ritual, as well as their Detection Ritual and Anti-Detection Ritual.

Inside a room of the Unfinished Building.

Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen arranged the Ritual site exactly as Fu Ji had instructed.

Fu Ji spoke eloquently, "The Ritual is all about the offerings and the scale. The better the offerings, the better the effect, the higher the success rate, and the less likely it is to be discovered by the Orthodox God. And the larger the scale, the greater the scope and distance of the Ritual's influence."

"Besides these, there are also the altar, the medium between humans and gods, Spiritual Energy objects, symbols of Evil God, and incantations—all the most basic elements, none of which can be omitted..."

At the same time, they saw that the room was filled with red candles.

Fu Ji was transformed back into a Rag Doll and placed on a brass altar.

Two mobile phones with their data plans fully activated were placed on either side of Fu Ji, serving as a medium for communication between the divine and the mortal.

The rented Qi Sea Spiritual Root became an excellent object for preserving Spiritual Energy, and was cherished by Fu Ji.

As for Fu Ji herself, as the embodiment of the Evil God... she is the most outstanding symbol of the Evil God.

Four other antiques were placed in the four directions of the Ritual, and the Incense and Fire Prayer Power contained within them awaited to be drawn and used by Fu Ji.

" In the Taiji Underworld, shadows rise and fall; all living beings, with sincere hearts, offer their Incense and Fire Prayer Power!"

As Fu Ji tapped the screen remotely, the antiques shattered one by one, and the invisible power released from them surged into her body.

"The spirit is clouded, the believer wanders in folly, unable to distinguish truth from falsehood; may all be gathered into my purse, hastily as the law commands!"

As Divine Power of dark golden divine power emerged above Fu Ji's head, Bai Zhenzhen, who was in the midst of the Ritual, froze, and the next moment, the Evil God Power flowed into her body...

After a long while, as the Ritual ended, Bai Zhenzhen slowly opened her eyes, looking at her body with some curiosity.

"How are you?" Zhang Yu asked, "A-Zhen, are you alright?"

A glint of electricity flashed in Bai Zhenzhen's eyes, then she laughed, "Yu Zi, is this what it feels like to have your potential unleashed?"

"Is this the power that has been hidden within me all along?"

Strands of lightning burst forth from Bai Zhenzhen's eyes, followed by bolts of lightning appearing all over her body.

Seeing Bai Zhenzhen's long hair shooting skyward amidst the flashing lightning, Zhang Yu asked in surprise, "What exactly has your potential been unleashed?"

As soon as Bai Zhenzhen opened her mouth, flashes of lightning appeared. "It's too early to say. I need to try more things to find out what's going on."

As the lightning subsided, the strange phenomena emanating from Bai Zhenzhen's body gradually disappeared.

Bai Zhenzhen planned to explore the specific changes that had occurred within her body when she returned.

The most urgent task is to complete the remaining Ritual.

Following the setup by the two, Detection Ritual and Anti-Detection Ritual were then performed separately.

As the Ritual was completed, Runes flashed across Zhang Yu's back, and he felt two completely different Ritual Power appear within his body.

Zhang Yu tried to activate the power of the Detection Ritual, and suddenly felt a light flashing in a dark room, emitting a unique attraction in his eyes. It was a surveillance camera they had brought.

Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen brought this surveillance camera specifically to test its effectiveness in Detection Ritual.

"So that's how it is." Zhang Yu looked at the camera that was faintly glowing in his line of sight. After trying to remove the power of the Detection Ritual, the camera disappeared into the darkness again.

"If I activate the power of the Detection Ritual, will I be able to directly see the location of the camera?"

Then Bai Zhenzhen placed the camera behind the other wall.

As the two initiated the Detection Ritual, they were able to directly see the camera behind the wall.

After testing it back and forth for a few minutes, Zhang Yu confirmed that once the power of this Detection Ritual was activated, it could help him detect cameras within a 30-meter radius, and ordinary obstacles could not block this detection.

"In just a few minutes, nearly half of the Detection Ritual's power has been consumed." "Fortunately, once the Detection Ritual is complete, it will automatically draw power from the Divine Power Network to replenish itself as long as the user is within a network environment."

"If you calculate it, there are about 10 minutes of detection time each day."

Ten minutes may not sound like a long time, but in Zhang Yu's opinion, it was enough for detection.

The two then picked up the pre-prepared detection patches, intending to test the power of the Anti-Detection Ritual.

Zhang Yu, whose mana should have exceeded 90 units, was only detected to have 85 units. In fact, after Zhang Yu continued to activate the power of the Anti-Detection Ritual, the mana detection data dropped to as low as 50 units.

"The Anti-Detection Ritual can be maintained for one hour each day."

"Able to conceal detection data regarding magical power and Physical Strength."

Zhang Yu said with satisfaction, "Not bad, not bad. This way, we don't have to be so conspicuous during the upcoming Monthly Exam."

Seeing their satisfied expressions, Fu Ji said proudly, "See? I told you so, didn't I? These two Ritual have been of great help to you."

"This is how the Ritual of the Evil God work. If you want to make a lot of money in the future, develop in the Dark Tutoring World, or even achieve something in fraud, smuggling, or business warfare, the stronger the Ritual Power within you, the better."

Zhang Yu knew that Fu Ji said these things simply because she hoped he could help her continue to improve her rank and strength, so that she could launch more Ritual.

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

Just like the four antiques consumed in the Ritual, Zhang Yu strongly suspected that Fu Ji had exaggerated her demand for antiques to replenish her with more Evil God Power.

But for now, it seems like a win-win situation, and Zhang Yu is too lazy to argue with her.

Upon hearing Fu Ji's words, Zhang Yu asked, "How many more Ritual can you maintain now?"

Fu Ji said, "I can maintain a total of 10 Ritual right now."

"After deducting the Wish Ritual, Detection Ritual, and Anti-Detection Ritual on both of you, you can still afford four more Ritual."

"But you don't need to rush. The remaining Ritual are all quite expensive. You can leave them blank for now and choose the Ritual you need later."

Zhang Yu then asked, "So how can you maintain more Ritual?"

Fu Ji chuckled and said, "There are two methods: either I devour the rank of other colleagues, and with each step closer to becoming Level 2 Evil God, I can maintain more Ritual."

"Either you steal the authority of the Orthodox God, but you don't need to consider that for now."

"In short, as long as my status continues to rise, you will also have increasingly stronger Ritual blessings, and one day you will be able to escape the three debts and the five dangers, and live a life of freedom in High Cultivator and wealth."

"Otherwise, no matter how strong they are, they're nothing more than beasts of burden for the Ten Great Sects."

After tidying up, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen returned to their apartment near Ziyun High School.

Upon entering the apartment building, Zhang Yu activated Detection Ritual and immediately spotted a series of surveillance cameras inside the building.

After entering the apartment room, he launched another Detection Ritual.

Although he and Bai Zhenzhen had already checked once before, they used the power of the Detection Ritual to check again, and only felt more at ease after not finding any cameras in the room.

As Bai Zhenzhen continued to experiment with the changes in her body, she gradually understood what she could do after her potential was unleashed.

Her magic possessed a lightning attribute, transforming into Special Magical Power.

With the blessing of this Special Magical Power, she found that the effects of using the Electro-optic Step and training her Thunderclap True Body were greatly enhanced.

In particular, the constant stimulation of her muscles and nervous system during the circulation of magical power greatly enhances her reaction, speed, agility, and explosive power.

Besides that, she felt that if she were to cultivate similar Cultivation Method in the future, she would achieve twice the results with half the effort.

Finally...

Zhang Yu watched as Bai Zhenzhen inserted her fingers into the socket, her entire body crackling with electricity. He heard her laugh and say, "Yu Zi! Look, I can replenish my magic power by charging, and charging has a Body Tempering effect! I can become stronger by charging from now on!"

"Once my True Spirit Root adapts to this new cultivation method, the efficiency will definitely be even higher..."

Zhang Yu nodded slightly at first, but the next moment his expression suddenly changed, and he looked sharply at his own electricity meter.

Seeing the electricity meter spinning wildly, Zhang Yu shouted, "Stop! Stop it right now!"

"If you continue cultivating like this, Le Mulan might kick us out of this apartment."

Bai Zhenzhen reluctantly pulled her fingers out of the socket. "Alright, alright."

"Then I'll go to school tomorrow to steal electricity to cultivate my skills."

"Hehe, while stealing electricity, we can conveniently coordinate with the Detection Ritual to evade cameras..."

With the Ritual successfully completed, Zhang Yu once again focused his attention on his own cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, a night had passed. With the circulation of the Longevity Magical Power, Zhang Yu felt his physical body becoming increasingly pure, and the Boundless Spring Autumn Zen had once again achieved a breakthrough.
