"Free?" Ji Yuan Shu looked at the other party with a wary expression.

Although Ji Yuan Shu is now living in unprecedented poverty, experiencing the poorest days of his life, his vigilance has also reached its peak after weathering the storm.

"What good can come from something free? Who's this scammer? Don't try to fool me this time."

With these thoughts in mind, Ji Yuan Shu took a few steps back with a wary expression, and then quickly left.

Fu Xinyao frowned as she watched this scene, thinking to herself, "These guys from the Civil Engineering Department of Ten Thousand Laws University... they're really troublesome!"

"Forget it, let's take it slow!"

Fu Xinyao knew that while the Nectar Divine Lord had left her here to gather intelligence, she was also a pawn planted in the Ten Thousand Laws University!

With the power of the Spirit Transformation Yin Artifact, the Nectar Divine Lord can descend at any time and exert large-scale interference in the Material World through the Spirit Realm!

"The Ten Thousand Laws University stole the Dharma Skeleton of the Nectar Divine Lord, and they certainly won't stop their research on those Dharma Skeleton!"

"The Divine Lord will not give up so easily!"

Fu Xinyao thought to herself, "This fight is just an appetizer; there's more to come."

Time continued to pass with each announcement from Ten Thousand Laws University and Joyous Union University!

Compared to their current work and studies, even the Combat Arts between the two Deity Transformation Divine Lord gradually faded from public attention as time went by!

Especially as the end of February approaches and Final Exam begin for each department, students in the University City become increasingly anxious and hurried!

As soon as class ended that day, Le Mulan moved swiftly through the Magnetic Channel, heading towards her dormitory!

She wanted to give the newly refined potion from her body to Zhang Yu!

Le Mulan didn't contact him beforehand because she didn't want to waste Zhang Yu's time!

She knew that Zhang Yu was extremely busy right now, every minute and every second of his time was more valuable than hers, and she often couldn't see him for days at a time!

Le Mulan also wondered if she could give Zhang Yu something else.

Thing!

But like most students at Ten Thousand Laws University, she was not well-off financially, and most of her income was invested in her spiritual practice!

Therefore, the only thing she can be proud of is her cultivation achievements and the potions she concocts herself!

"But would Zhang Yu even look at the potions I'm currently concocting?"

"Is it just something that's better than nothing for him?"

But Le Mulan knew that this was the best she could give Zhang Yu!

Just then, a gust of wind swept across the front, and Zhang Yu's figure leaped into the air and disappeared in a flash on the street!

Le Mulan tried to catch up with her opponent, but found that no matter how fast she sped up, the opponent's figure was getting smaller and smaller, and in the blink of an eye, she stepped into the Anti-Gravity Channel!

The Anti-Gravity Channel is one that Le Mulan is not qualified to enter!

Looking up at Zhang Yu, who soared into the sky and disappeared into the passage in the blink of an eye, Le Mulan lowered her head and slowly walked back towards the dormitory!

On the other side, Zhang Yu arrived at the examination hall and began the Final Exam for this semester!

With his current abilities, he easily leads the class in the Final Exam, finishing almost every exam early and leaving as the first-place student!

Before we knew it, it was time for the final engineering exam!

Tu Lishan reminded the students, "Check yourselves: Is your Dharma Skeleton's magic power full? Has your membership expired? Do you have enough data for the Spirit Realm? Every year, students from the Ten Thousand Methods have these questions during exams. I hope our Civil Engineering Department won't have any this year!"

As the exam began, the entire examination hall shook violently!

Many examinees looked towards Zhang Yu's location and saw that the heavens and earth seemed to collapse at that moment. All the materials on the construction site seemed to have come to life, automatically jumping, transforming, and assembling under the manipulation of the Heaven Kunlun Mountain Moving Divine Power.

combine...

The tower required for this exam was built at a speed visible to the naked eye, right before everyone's eyes!

After finishing the exam first, Zhang Yu left the examination room amidst the envious gazes of many students!

He thought to himself, "Was that Le Mulan I just met on the road?"

Zhang Yu sent a message to Le Mulan: Are you in the dorm?

Zhang Yu: Wait for me!

As Zhang Yu hurried back to his dormitory, he thought to himself, "Le Mulan's Deep Cold Magic Vein should be able to reach Level 2 today!"

With Zhang Yu's occasional infusion of magical power, especially after Zhang Yu acquired the Blazing Sun Magic Vein to complement Le Mulan's Deep Cold Magic Vein, Le Mugang's improvement in magical power and Magical Power Quality, while not as astonishing as Zhang Yu's, has already surpassed most Foundation Establishment Student of the same level!

Now that the first semester of her junior year has ended, Le Mulan's legal skills have already reached 1000 units, and the Magical Power Quality is getting closer and closer to 200%!

Zhang Yu estimated that today should be the day when Le Mulan's Magical Power Quality would increase to 200%!

Zhang Yu was very much looking forward to the effects of Le Mulan's upgraded Dao Seed.

Upon entering the dormitory, Zhang Yu couldn't wait to pour his own magical power into Le Mulan!

As Le Mulan's Magical Power Quality reached 200%, a chill first rose from her body, followed by a surge of heat flowing through her meridians and continuously returning to Zhang Yu's body!

Le Mulan said with some surprise, "The magic power within my body seems to have changed again?"

Zhang Yu, standing to the side, looked at the Deep Cold Magic Vein, which had already Level 2 on the Dao Seed Compendium, and nodded. "It has indeed changed."

After some testing, Zhang Yu gradually understood the function of the Level 2 Deep Cold Magic Vein!

If a Level 1 Deep Cold Magic Vein imbues magic with a chilling quality, capable of freezing Gang Qi and Qi and Blood, disinfecting and sterilizing, freezing wounds, unleashing Cold Poison within an opponent's body, and even having a slight Longevity effect!

The Level 2 Deep Cold Magic Vein takes the coldness aspect a step further!

"With the continuous circulation of magical power, the body can be kept at a low temperature! Even when the physical body is exerting its full power, the temperature can be kept below 60 degrees Celsius!"

Zhang Yu knew this was an astonishing figure, because when a cultivator's physical body explodes, the heat released from their body can reach tens or even hundreds of times the normal level!

The longer the burst of energy lasts, the higher the body heat becomes, and the greater the burden on the body, which may even reduce the efficiency of the exercise!

"Level 2 Deep Cold Magic Vein can not only lower the body's internal temperature, but also, while cooling down, it can conduct the body's heat out through Magical Power Conduction!"

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "So it seems that while cooling down, it can also raise the outside temperature!"

However, in Zhang Yu's view, although these were powerful, they were not anything particularly remarkable. After all, Kunxu was not lacking in Cultivation Method that could achieve similar effects, such as Dharma Skeleton, Law Treasure, and Dao Arts!

"What's truly amazing is its Longevity effect!"

"Under the prolonged use of the Level 2 Deep Cold Magic Vein, the physical body is extended..."

The longevity-enhancing effect is even more pronounced!

"If this effect continues, Longevity by 10% to 20% shouldn't be a problem!"

"And this lifespan... is money!"

Just then, Feng Tingting sent a message: Zhang Yu, have you heard? The Old Director of the Civil Engineering Department is having trouble Longevity his lifespan and is retiring.

Feng Tingting: It seems that Director Gao will temporarily take over the work ahead of us!

Feng Tingting: If he does well within a year, Director Gao will probably be promoted to a permanent position!

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Even after getting a Civil Engineering degree, Feng Tingting is still just as gossipy!"

"However, she seems to be talking less about weapon crafting lately and preferring to spread gossip about the Civil Engineering Department!"

Zhang Yu quickly sent a message to Director Gao to congratulate him!

Recalling the news about the Old Director, Zhang Yu couldn't help but sigh, "Lifespan... so many people spend money until they go bankrupt, yet they still want to prolong it!"

Feeling the Deep Cold Magic Vein within his own body, he gazed intently at Le Mulan beside him, thinking, "It can Longevity..."

"Even if the effect is halved again, how much is it worth for a cultivator who has already tried various methods and whose Longevity costs are increasing?"

"With Le Mulan, my lifespan will be longer, and I'll have more time to strive and work overtime, allowing me to go further on the path of Immortal Dao!"

"Besides, this is only Level 2 Deep Cold Magic Vein. If it continues to be upgraded, the Longevity effect will probably become more and more obvious!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he looked at Le Mulan, feeling that she was becoming more and more valuable!

But at the same time, he also realized that the other party's situation was becoming increasingly delicate!

"If those old men who are nearing the end of their lives find out, they'll probably immediately try to take Le Mulan into custody!"

"However, this kind of control has both risks and benefits!"

At the same time, Le Mulan also felt the Longevity effect of her Deep Cold Magic Vein, and was shocked!

Looking at Le Mulan's blank expression, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "The key question is, what is Le Mulan thinking? Is she planning to sell her ability in exchange for more cultivation resources?"

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu looked intently at Le Mulan until she came to her senses!

Le Mulan: "Zhang Yu, my magic power..."

Zhang Yu nodded. "I felt it too, your magic can Longevity!"

Le Mulan's cheeks flushed slightly, and she asked with a mixture of excitement and nervousness, "What should I do?"

Zhang Yu said solemnly, "I suggest you keep this matter a secret for now!"

"Le Mulan, if you trust me, when I have money in the future, I can protect you and make it safer for you to profit from this ability!"

From Zhang Yu's perspective, although Le Mulan's Dao Seed Deep Cold Magic Vein originated from Le Mulan herself, it was through his Dao Seed Compendium that it gained various improvements. The two can be said to have mutually benefited each other!

If Le Mulan can continue to cooperate with him, although she won't gain a lot of benefits in the short term, it will be safer in the long run, and the potential will become higher and higher as the Deep Cold Magic Vein continues to improve!

But he also knew that from Le Mulan's perspective, it wasn't like that at all!

Because Le Mulan didn't know his Feather Scroll, let alone his Dao Seed Compendium, and he couldn't possibly reveal this secret information to the other party!

Thinking of this, he sighed inwardly. If Le Mulan insisted on immediately manifesting the power of the Deep Cold Magic Vein, he couldn't very well stop her!

Upon hearing Zhang Yu's words, Le Mulan's mind flashed back to the past few years: the battle between Zhang Yu and Wang Yin, the times he had infused her with magical power, and the current situation of Zhao Tianxing and others in Wang Yin's company...

Le Mulan said slowly, "I believe you!"

She thought to herself, "You are perhaps the most trustworthy person I have ever met in my entire life!"

Zhang Yu glanced at the Dao Seed on the other person's chest, nodded, and said earnestly, "Don't worry, you will definitely not regret this choice in the future!"

To upgrade the Deep Cold Magic Vein to Level 3, you need 5000 mana and 250% Magical Power Quality!

Zhang Yu understood that that was a level that could only be achieved at the Golden Core Stage!
