As Zhang Yu practiced another Cultivation Method for over 30 hours, his Divine Spiritual Root trembled slightly, as if he had swallowed the Cultivation Method as nourishment. It was at this moment that Zhang Yu saw the Dao Seed Compendium in the Feather Scroll, and the Dao Seed named Azure Lotus Sword Embryo finally appeared.

Azure Lotus Sword Embryo (Spirit Root) Level 2: "Finally, I succeeded."

Seeing this scene, Zhang Yu felt a surge of excitement. This Divine Spiritual Root from Bai Zhenzhen was the first Military Grade power he possessed, filling him with boundless anticipation.

Next, he focused intently on sensing the information contained within the Dao Seed, while carefully testing the function of this Divine Spiritual Root in his dantian little by little, and began to summarize the wonders of this Divine Spiritual Root more comprehensively!

In fact, although Zhang Yu hadn't explored the abilities of the Azure Lotus Azure Lotus Sword Embryo Azure Lotus Sword Embryo much these past few days, he had still sensed its effects to some extent while continuously circulating his Cultivation Method to nourish his Spirit Root!

Now, by sensing the Dao Seed, it's even easier and more efficient, and he's gradually grasped the various mysteries of the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo!

"The Level 2 Azure Lotus Sword Embryo's main characteristic remains adaptability, but its adaptability is far stronger than when it was in its Heavenly Spiritual Root stage!"

"This adaptation, or rather, enhancement, is a long-term adjustment of the body! Just like A-Zhen's diligent Sword-Controlling Art, the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo will continuously adjust her body, gradually enhancing her reaction speed, thinking speed, and mana gathering efficiency, continuously strengthening her sword control ability, allowing her to progress rapidly in swordsmanship!"

"But if we try to adapt to everything, to let the body adapt to the effects of various medicines, to the tempering of external forces, to the influence of Dao Arts..."

"Then gradually, medicine will become less effective at influencing cultivators, rendering it useless! Since the body remains unharmed during cultivation, various cultivation methods will find it difficult to alter one's own state! Dao Arts Dao Arts will struggle to exert influence, and their power will be unable to benefit oneself..."

"Trying to adapt to everything will only slow down your cultivation progress, and may even lead you astray!"

Zhang Yu pondered to himself, "The adaptation to the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo is not a blind, comprehensive adaptation, but a selective one!"

"The direction chosen is determined by the user's state of mind and intentions!"

"For example, if A-Zhen to hide her Spirit Root, then over the course of time, her ability to hide it would be continuously strengthened and become more and more powerful!"

"Later, she focused on cultivating Martial Arts, and her Martial Dao aptitude began to be enhanced by the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo!"

"In high school, A-Zhen awakened the deduction ability of the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo. This is a manifestation of this adaptive enhancement! Back then, she could deduce the Cultivation Method, change the effect by Level 10, and obtain an effect that was more suitable for herself!"

"Now that I'm wielding the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo, in which direction will it lead me?"

Zhang Yu originally thought that the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo would gradually enhance his Civil Engineering Cultivation Method as he worked and worked overtime!

But he soon realized he was wrong!

"The Azure Lotus Sword Embryo... is enhancing my Chain Law Diagram Set?"

At first, Zhang Yu was very puzzled by this, but he soon gradually understood the reason!

"The Azure Lotus Sword Embryo is designed to adapt and strengthen the cultivator's focus on improvement!"

"And during the switching process, did my Chain Law Diagram set drastically alter my physique and various attributes?"

"The dramatic changes after the set was cut and modified triggered the adaptive enhancement of the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo, making it think that I was developing in this direction? Therefore, the adaptive enhancement of the Azure Lotus Azure Lotus Sword Embryo Azure Lotus Sword Embryo is strengthening the set's effects by adjusting my body!"

"It seems that the True Spirit Root couldn't do this before. Is it something that can only be done after evolving into a Divine Spiritual Root...?"

"Switching to the University Sacred Body, my True Spirit Root began to enhance my Cultivation Method abilities..."

"Switching to the Civil Engineering Sacred Body means strengthening various resistances and reducing lifespan consumption..."

"Switching to the Qi Vein Everflow will enhance the speed of mana recovery and reduce energy loss..."

Zhang Yu could sense that, although the process was very subtle and slow, the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo was indeed undergoing adaptive enhancement in accordance with the direction of the set!

Upon realizing this, Zhang Yu felt a surge of joy. He understood that the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo would be of unprecedented help to him!

Because the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo's adjustment and strengthening of the body are long-lasting!

"Does this mean that even if I switch from the University Sacred Body to the Civil Engineering Sacred Body, the enhancement of my learning ability by the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo will still be retained?"

"Doesn't that mean... with the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo, I can retain a portion of the set effect on my character?"

Zhang Yu has always placed great importance on the effects of the Chain Law Diagram Set!

However, the biggest problem with the Chain Law Diagram set is that only one set can be used at a time, and they are difficult to make compatible with each other!

However, if the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo strengthens him, allowing his body to possess some of the set effects in its normal state, then the improvement in Zhang Yu's strength will definitely be a qualitative leap!

Zhang Yu took a deep breath, suppressing his surprise and excitement, and began to summarize the effects of the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo!

"For me, the greatest effect of the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo is that it enhances my set bonus!"

"Secondly, even after I take off the set, I can still retain some of the set effects!"

"But how much it will ultimately strengthen, how much it will retain... is still unclear. It will take several months, or even several years, of slow cultivation to know the result!"

"Hmm, there are also some abilities that have reached the Foundation Establishment Limit after switching sets, and even with adjustments to my body, it seems the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo can't be strengthened any further!"

"For example, the Drug Load and digestive capacity of the Foundation Establishment Peak Foundation Establishment Peak brought by the University Sacred Body seem to be unable to be further enhanced by the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo!"

Zhang Yu could sense that because the effects of different sets were so varied, the results of the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo's adaptive enhancement to different sets would obviously be quite different. He would need to gradually become familiar with and comprehend these effects in his future cultivation!

But Zhang Yu merely smiled slightly at this. Wasn't this feeling of experiencing the mysteries of one's own power a kind of blissful trouble?

"With the Feather Scroll and the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo, how powerful will I be in a few years?"

"I can't wait!"

Of course, there's also the ability to conceal and deduce within the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo. The former brings powerful combat strength and stealth capabilities, while the latter allows the Cultivation Method to reach a higher level!

There was another thing that Zhang Yu was curious about and looking forward to: the next upgrade of the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo!

"To upgrade the Azure Lotus Sword Embryo to Level 3, it needs the nourishment of 10 level 30 Cultivation Method!"

"Phew... this must be something Golden Core Stage could do, right?"

Zhang Yu shook his head. Although he was full of anticipation, he also knew that this was not something that could be done in a short time!

Moreover, before having sufficient strength...

"Letting A-Zhen's Azure Lotus Sword Embryo improve again too early and expose it to the Seven Emotions Divine Lord's watchful eye is probably not a good thing!"

On Simulated Construction Site!

As class ended, Gongshu Jin, Ying Xin, and the others slowly left.

Gongshu Jin glanced at the crowd, a question forming in his mind, "Zhang Yu has been on leave for the past few days. What has he been doing?"

"And at yesterday's banquet, he was so busy eating that he didn't even take the opportunity to get to know any friends from other schools!"

"Although eating is important, yesterday was a rare opportunity..."

Gongshu Jin felt that Zhang Yu's performance was somewhat lackluster!

"Yesterday's banquet was full of top university competition participants, each one a top student among top students, possessing rare resources from other universities, and many of them are even more capable than Zhang Yu Ji Yuan Shu!"

In Gongshu Jin's view, having more friends like this increases one 'Immortal Dao Potential!

Even setting aside the exchange of resources between their respective schools, they now have another source of funding for lending money!

He added more than ten friends yesterday, which shows that his Immortal Dao Potential has increased slightly!

Just then, Gongshu Jin's gaze sharpened as he looked at a figure standing outside the Simulated Construction Site!

"That person is..." He remembered the other person as Wen Wuya from Heaven Sword University, a top student who participated in the Flying Sword Competition just like Bai Zhenzhen, and the successor of another Deity Transformation Divine Lord!

Although the opponent's popularity on the Spirit Realm Network is not as high as Bai Zhenzhen's this time, Gongshu Jin remembers that the opponent's ranking in this competition is still higher than Bai Zhenzhen's!

"I think it's 15th place?"

"What's he doing Simulated Construction Site?"

Wen Wuya came to find Bai Zhenzhen!

Just as the Heaven Sword University team was about to leave, Bai Zhenzhen disappeared again!

So he went to where Zhang Yu was having class, hoping to see if Bai Zhenzhen was nearby!

Just as Wen Wuya's gaze swept over the Foundation Establishment Class, a figure walked up to him—it was Ji Yuan Shu from the Layer 6!

As the student with the best grades and the highest social standing present, Ji Yuan Shu felt that he was the most suitable to deal with Wen Wuya!

He also wanted to see if he could take this opportunity to establish a relationship with Wen Wuya, a Nascent Soul disciple from the Layer 10!

"If I could add him as a friend, or even take a picture and post it on my Moments, my Luck would probably improve a lot!"

Ji Yuan Shu recalled the methods used in the Luck Daoist Arts!

There was once a Finance Department who went around taking photos with powerful people, leading many to believe he had extensive connections and knew many wealthy individuals, thus greatly increasing his Luck and accelerating his cultivation. The only pity was that he ultimately couldn't withstand the backlash...

Ji Yuan Shu spoke first, "Hello, I am Ji Yuan Shu from the Civil Engineering Department of Ten Thousand Laws University. What can I do for you?"

In Wen Wuya's eyes, Ji Yuan Shu, Gongshu Jin, and Ying Xin beside him... were all the same. Once they entered the Civil Engineering Department, they were all workers in the Civil Engineering Department! Even if Wen Wuya knew about their so-called Layer 2, Layer 4, and Layer 6 origins, he wouldn't care!

From his perspective as someone on the Layer 10, aren't they all from the Lower Level? And every time he heard these Lower Level people making distinctions among themselves, he found it amusing and lamented how severe the class discrimination was among Lower Level!

In contrast, the people on the Layer 1 were more special in Wen Wuya's eyes, like rare animals, with a strange feeling from the primitive Savage Wilderness!
