Practice

Zhang Xuezhou had anticipated the arrival of the catalyst for reaching the Seventh Sequence, but he hadn't expected it to arrive so quickly.

"The synthesis of catalysts is a matter of probability; what role did Huang Daoxian play?"

Luo Burang's message did not involve technical details. Zhang Xuezhou could judge that Huang Daoxian made a great contribution, but he did not know what Huang Daoxian had done.

Of course, what Huang Daoxian did is not important; what matters is that the goal was achieved.

Zhang Xuezhou's body swayed, and then he drifted towards the A6 Research Institute.

If there is a genetic catalyst, his probability of entering the Seventh Sequence is extremely high.

For Zhang Xuezhou, this is an extremely important stage in the sequence. His physical body will develop a resistance layer, which may allow it to combine with physical techniques. Meanwhile, his mental resistance layer will cause his control to no longer be an intermittent product.

This also relates to his future career advancement in the field, as many things are tied to this sequence level.

This was a world of difference, a difference of just one step, so it's no surprise that Zhang Xuezhou was overjoyed.

"With the spirit as the main trunk, this can be considered two flowers blooming. I wonder if combining the resistance layer with physical techniques can promote the transformation of the physical body into Divine Ability!"

If conditions are right, Zhang Xuezhou has no doubt about the possibility of advancing to the Seventh Sequence, but he is not entirely confident in combining physical techniques with his abilities.

Ultimately, the catalyst and the extract from the ferocious beast were like special medicines to Zhang Xuezhou, bringing about an opportunity for physical changes. However, whether he could combine them with his physical characteristics and integrate them with magical Technique Method was another matter entirely.

He could only try his best to recall his many experiences of transforming his physical body into Divine Ability in another world.

"Bark! This breakthrough in tackling this difficult technology means there are no more obstacles to my becoming a ferocious beast! Hurry up and prepare the gene serum for me; I desperately want to transform!"

"Your pestering is useless. I can only guarantee the first stage. The second stage... he's coming!"

Inside the A6 Research Institute, a spotted hyena circled around Luo Burang, occasionally unleashing waves of mental energy to attack him.

Luo Burang didn't seem to care about this. He ignored the surprised looks from others and kept responding as if talking to himself.

He only breathed a sigh of relief when Zhang Xuezhou arrived quickly, finally getting rid of the troublesome Huang Daoxian.

"I'll practice on Grean first, and try to clear it on my first try too!"

"What about me? What about me!"

"You're watching from the side; with your understanding, you should be able to figure it out!"

Huang Daoxian barked once, and Zhang Xuezhou quickly dismissed him. He then waved to Dijun and Huang, who were about ten meters away and had come to greet him.

"Want to practice on me?" the emperor, disguised as Zhang Hao, asked.

"I need a quick and easy sequence lock!"

Beside the Emperor was Zhang Huang, whose appearance was quite similar to Zhang Xuezhou's, and who also bore a five-point resemblance to Zhang Xuezhou.

Huang didn't care that the sequence lock was controlled by Zhang Xuezhou, nor did he want to cultivate the extremely difficult Realm Technique; he was more interested in quick success.

The Emperor's words, while serious, carried a hint of jest, while Huang's expression was earnest and clearly stated his needs.

This forced Zhang Xuezhou to explain the drawbacks of sequence locks.

"Upstream Gene Sequence is no longer related to ferocious beast resources, so the difference between having this restriction and not having it is minimal. I don't care about the flexibility of the sequence lock, as long as the standard of the Seventh Sequence can be met!"

Huang nodded, indicating that he fully understood the drawbacks of sequence locks.

As long as it doesn't follow the direction of past Gene Sequence, the sequence lock's impact on the body isn't significant. At most, Zhang Xuezhou's death would cause the Law Power imprint to fade, gradually leading to the sequence lock's collapse.

If the person being restrained were a normal person, Huang would really worry about them dying. But Huang had followed Zhang Xuezhou and others for many years, and he felt that it was too difficult for Zhang Xuezhou to die, so there was no need to worry about this drawback at all.

After ruling out various problems, Huang felt that the accelerated sequence lock was fine. After all, Realm Technique were not something he could cultivate and achieve success at will, which was far more convenient than cultivating to the point of perfection on his own.

"Everything is negotiable!"

Huang didn't care about the drawbacks, and Zhang Xuezhou had nothing to say in terms of persuasion.

"What about sequence locks? You didn't mention this before, what am I supposed to do? Should I quickly develop a sequence lock system?"

Huang Daoxian called out several times, but seeing that no one paid any attention to him, he wandered around the Emperor's side very awkwardly.

"With your knowledge and abilities, entering the Seventh Sequence shouldn't be difficult!"

Zhang Xuezhou walked towards the laboratory, then glanced at the Emperor, causing the Emperor to shake his head repeatedly.

"Before the R36 catalyst appeared, we could apply for beast extracts in your name, but after this catalyst was successful, one dose of the original beast extract can be used as ten doses. This eliminates the possibility of obtaining the original beast extract and makes this the only area to enter the Seventh Sequence," the Emperor replied. "My sequence level advancement is still a little bit slow!"

"If you had accepted the accelerated sequence lock earlier, there wouldn't have been so many problems. With Little Zhang's status, Manqian would definitely have been able to apply for the corresponding beast extract for you," Zhang Huang said, shaking his head.

"I use the Golden Core Technique as a guide, and the Sequence Lock is several times stronger than the accelerated method. If it's stronger, no one will think it's weak," the Emperor said.

"The pursuit of perfection is often a form of imperfection!"

Zhang Huang clearly disagreed with the Emperor's views.

You always want to be perfect in everything, to be the best in everything, but fortuitous opportunity don't wait for anyone.

In Zhang Huang's view, as long as one's strength is basically sufficient to satisfy the pursuit of fortuitous opportunity, that strength is enough, and only cultivators with this mindset can grasp top-tier fortuitous opportunity.

Even if he becomes the weakest in the Ninth Sequence or even tenth sequence in the future, as long as he seizes the fortuitous opportunity first, he will be the winner, not someone else.

The two men's ideas clashed, and neither could convince the other. However, Zhang Xuezhou had a sudden realization: Huang's experience was practical, while the Emperor's was ideal.

Both of them failed to reach the top level. The difference is that the Emperor lacked direction, which gave Hongjun an advantage, while Huang was limited by his cognition and environment, so he had to seek survival and development in the Soul Jade.

From a practical standpoint, Zhang Xuezhou clearly leans more towards the wilderness, since his strength has always been primarily focused on practicality.

But Zhang Xuezhou has to admit that he has also repeatedly tried to pursue perfection and the ultimate over the years.

"A monk's life isn't always perfect!"

While Zhang Huang calmly recounted his story, Zhang Xuezhou had already entered the vicinity of the tanks and instruments in the laboratory, while Luo Burang also began to quickly adjust what was needed.

"Professor Zhang, I'm here!"

After waiting for half an hour, Grian's voice, brimming with barely suppressed joy, rang out from the laboratory doorway, accompanied by the sound of several footsteps.

Once the electronic door was opened, Li Yingbo and others, wearing protective suits, entered the laboratory and took their seats for observation as instructed.

"Professor Zhang, why didn't you provide Chairman Li with a sequence drive?"

As Zhang Xuezhou happily took off his clothes to begin the experiment, Grean asked him a very practical question.

"Oh, he hasn't been in the Sixth Sequence as long as you have, and his aptitude isn't as good as yours. He needs more experimental data to help him advance to the Seventh Sequence, pushing his ranking four or five places behind you!"

Zhang Xuezhou gave a perfunctory reply, while Grian looked on with unbelievable delight.

On the observation platform, Li Yingbo finally felt relieved.

To Grean, Zhang Xuezhou's words were a compliment, but to Li Yingbo, he knew very well that Grean had become a waste of Zhang Xuezhou's training resources.

In another sense, Zhang Xuezhou's ability to directly provide the ranking of Li Yingbo's experiments demonstrates an extremely high level of control over the promotion to the Seventh Sequence.

Updates have returned to normal, with 3 chapters updated daily. If I'm not feeling well, I might update twice a day. As long as I don't suddenly catch a bad cold, updates will generally return to normal.
