You dare to cultivate without money?!

Chapter 1213 805: Mutated Technique, Lao Zhao, Divinity Transformation Dao Body (10/10)

Zhang Yu knew that in ancient times... the Primordial Spirit of a Divinity Transformation Cultivator was both a powerful weapon and a weakness with many limitations. A collapse or pollution of the Primordial Spirit could lead to severe injury or even death for the cultivator.

However, after generations of updates by the masters and experts of Kunxu, especially the restructuring by the Ten Great Sects, the current Primordial Spirit is incomparable to that of the past.

Like collapsing and regrouping, this is the first thing today's Primordial Spirit learns after being refined successfully.

The second effect of the Ultimate-Divinity Transformation Body is that it allows Zhang Yu's Primordial Spirit to reassemble at a faster speed and with less mana consumption, giving his Primordial Spirit greater resilience.

Zhang Yu knew this was naturally a good thing, allowing his Primordial Spirit to withstand greater pressure and more tasks in the future.

Two more days passed, and the third level effect of the Ultimate-Divinity Transformation Body was also brought to light by Zhang Yu.

Ultimate-Divinity Transformation Body (10/10): Increases the efficiency of all Divinity Transformation Techniques by threefold, and the effect by threefold. The effect remains when switching Chain Law Map Sets.

This final effect was not unexpected to Zhang Yu, yet it brought him a slight surprise.

"The Nascent Soul Sacred Body only increases efficiency by twofold, right? The Ultimate-Divinity Transformation Body can increase it by threefold?"

Moreover, the fact that switching still has effect... was also a reason for Zhang Yu's excitement.

"Other Sacred Bodies' third-level effects in the past couldn't remain effective after switching."

"This 'Sacred Body' of Divinity Transformation is indeed more powerful."

Just then, a message from the Spirit Realm arrived.

Zhao Tianxing: Divine Monarch, this is today's operating report of the Divinity Transformation Pool.

Zhang Yu glanced at the report Zhao Tianxing had sent and nodded slightly.

Zhao Tianxing... this soul cultivator whom Zhang Yu befriended in high school on the 1st Floor of Kunxu was finally awakened by Zhang Yu a few days ago.

In the unique environment of the Old Graveyard, even if Zhao Tianxing was only possessing Zhang Yu's military-level magic treasure, he felt at ease as if a fish in water, with his mind active under the nourishment of Yin Qi, and his consumption was reduced to an extremely low level.

"If I could stay in this environment forever, my lifespan would at least double, right?"

"If I could also have a better Calculation Pool, breaking through another level... wouldn't be impossible, either."

After awakening Zhao Tianxing, Zhang Yu assigned him to maintain the Divinity Transformation Pool and some equipment in the dormitory, saving himself some operation efforts, allowing him to focus more on cultivation.

Zhao Tianxing felt touched, a sense of being trusted surged in his heart.

Particularly after gaining some insights into the Old Graveyard, he understood that a soul cultivator like himself was insignificant here.

There were too many powerful soul cultivators in the Old Graveyard, capable of being killed and refined on the spot, with any variety available.

Even soul cultivators who had slept for a long time could be resurrected and killed again to become fresh commodities.

"Is it still considered prefabrication if resurrected and then killed?" Zhao Tianxing thought to himself: "The competition among soul cultivators in the sects is intense beyond a hundredfold compared to the Lower Realm."

For Zhang Yu, a soul cultivator known since childhood, raised by himself, was more trustworthy, which was the reason he employed Zhao Tianxing.

After all, soul cultivators are very close to cultivators, often in contact with many secrets, and trust is very important.

"When I become more affluent, I'll activate other soul cultivators and enhance their strength a bit."

Zhang Yu knew that currently, he was penniless in the sect, with no need for more soul cultivators for now.

But as he becomes wealthier and requires more magic treasures, having more soul cultivators is definitely beneficial.

Thinking of filling all 32 avatars with various equipment treasures in the future, Zhang Yu felt both anticipation and pain.

Shaking his head, Zhang Yu refocused on the task at hand.

While he silently cultivated daily after breaking through Divinity Transformation, Zhang Yu also conducted an experiment he had long wanted to try.

That was to mutate a self-selected cultivation technique obtained from the [Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Clan].

Previously, Zhang Yu either didn't have time or was closely watched by someone like Bu Yingshu, preventing him from attempting it until now.

With both time and space now, Zhang Yu decided to earnestly explore what this mutation entailed.

Initially, he chose a basic Breathing Technique for mutation.

The result of the mutation was that the originally ordinary Breathing Technique now showed an additional phenomenon during practice, appearing ethereal and filled with immortal energy.

Moreover, Zhang Yu felt that the technique itself hadn't changed, only this phenomenon appeared when he performed it.

Zhang Yu thought: "It seems like a superpower, where I can trigger anomalies caused by technique mutations, but cannot record the specific technical content of the mutated technique."

"But this effect..."

Zhang Yu frowned and tested an expert-level technique next.

This expert-level technique was Zhang Yu's old partner—the Nine Heavens Cloud Sky Force.

This technique, once Zhang Yu's signature move, had not been used for a long time.

With the mutation effect emerging, Zhang Yu struck out with a palm, Gang Qi surged, yet no cloud or mist appeared.

"It's transparent?" Zhang Yu was surprised: "The Gang Qi of the Nine Heavens Cloud Sky Force turned from the original mist form to a transparent color?"

"In this way, reflecting the opponent's power without a trace seems... like a beneficial mutation, right?"

Zhang Yu then tested the Sumeru Mountain King Scripture, a military-level technique.

This technique originally used the weight of the earth to incorporate the heaviness of the mountains in each punch and kick, and could transfer the power endured by the body back to the mountains and earth during such force.

However, after mutation, the strength endured by the mountains during their destruction could be transferred to his body instead.

Zhang Yu thought: "Is this... environmental protection? An enhanced version of living piles?"

For a time, Zhang Yu couldn't determine if the mutation was good or bad.

After a series of attempts, Zhang Yu gradually understood: "Firstly, the mutation only affects me individually, the content of the technique doesn't change, and it cannot be promoted."

"Secondly, the mutation itself is uncontrollable, what effect it will have, whether good or bad... all are unknown, at least for now, I can't find a pattern."

"Lastly, the mutation... currently appears irreversible, at least for now, I don't know how to reverse it."

Zhang Yu thought to himself: "Considering this, it might be better not to easily mutate important techniques, in case negative effects appear, weakening the technique."

But at the next moment, Zhang Yu's eyes suddenly locked: "Right, there's also the self-selected technique forgetting!"

"Could this forgetting be specifically for mutation?"

"If a mutation fails and produces undesirable effects, does forgetting it allow re-cultivation without the mutated effects?"

Thinking it made sense, Zhang Yu decided to experiment again.

"There aren't many draw rewards for Immortal Sect level or military level, but basic techniques... I still have 3 mutation and 2 forgetting effects."

"Fortunately, I have recently refined many basic skills of Immortal Dao Technology, with many rewards from [Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Clan]."

In fact, Zhang Yu originally found the rewards related to basic skills of little use, intending to stop, but didn't expect them to be perfect for testing this time.

So, after pondering, Zhang Yu applied the forgetting effect to the mutated Breathing Technique, then used basic skills entry to relevel the technique to Level 1.

This time, when performed again, the original mutation effect was indeed gone.

Zhang Yu felt a slight joy, thinking he was indeed right.

He then applied the mutation effect to the Breathing Technique once more.
