You dare to cultivate without money?!-Chapter 316 - 267 Zhang Yu’s Rare Treasure, Sister’s Contact

Chapter 316: Chapter 267 Zhang Yu’s Rare Treasure, Sister’s Contact

Looking at the message on the phone, Mu Lan knew this was information sent by her brother using the company’s private line.

Mu Lan understood that the local affluent families continuously cultivated their descendants to climb to the second level, one of the purposes being to maintain connections with second-level companies, thereby obtaining more trade-related resources, information, and even influence, to earn more profits in the trade between the first and second levels.

After Le Jingchen finished the college entrance exams and ascended to the second level, he clearly met up with the Le family members there and connected with the company’s network.

And even after going to the second level, he still showed concern for Zhang Yu’s matters.

He even used the rare opportunity to communicate via the company’s private line at this moment.

Mu Lan sensed that perhaps there were people above who were also keeping an eye on Zhang Yu.

At this moment, looking at the message sent by the other party, Mu Lan thought, "Are we confirming the genuine goods?"

Mu Lan felt that what the other party said was very reasonable.

As the most prominent figure on Kunxu’s first level right now, the various data and samples associated with Zhang Yu were naturally in high demand and extremely precious—a coveted target for numerous forces.

It’s heard that many affluent families from Xiandu City travel thousands of miles to Songyang just to obtain the true seeds to optimize their bloodlines.

But although many people sought the various data and samples from Zhang Yu, despite the long passage of time, no one has managed to research anything of value from them.

There was only a pile of nutritional supplements, health products, and beauty products bearing Zhang Yu’s name... which the Le family, upon investigation, found to be fraudulent.

Mu Lan silently thought to herself, "Zhang Yu is probably producing seeds right now."

"I’ll take a look... at worst, I’ll be discovered and kicked out."

"Besides, he didn’t say that looking was not allowed."

Thinking over how important this cargo was, Mu Lan decided that seeing it with her own eyes was the only way to be assured.

"After all, it concerns the fields and markets of medicine, genetics, bloodlines, and body modification."

"It also relates to the family, even to my own future development..."

"Even if Zhang Yu blames me for not trusting him, I should still confirm it."

Thinking this, Mu Lan could no longer restrain herself, stood up, and looked in the direction where Zhang Yu had just left, which was the second floor of the apartment.

There... a treasure worth more than gold was being produced.

Mu Lan believed anyone, faced with such circumstances, would definitely go up to verify.

So, she moved silently and swiftly, ascending to the second floor.

Listening to the sounds coming from the direction of the bedroom, she slowly walked over, trying to peek inside through the door gap.

Upon seeing, Mu Lan felt joy in her heart: "It’s the real thing."

As Mu Lan watched, Zhang Yu seemed to sense something, instinctively looking toward the direction of the door.

Then, a hint of astonishment, fear, and tension flashed across his face... finally, his muscles suddenly tensed up entirely.

Seeing the change in his expression, Mu Lan felt a jolt in her heart: "Did he discover me?"

Realizing she had been discovered, Mu Lan initially wanted to retreat, but then she stopped.

Because she noticed that with Zhang Yu’s turning motion, his direction had shifted, and the rare treasure that should have fallen into a beaker was instead heading towards the door, seemingly about to fall to the ground.

In that instant, many thoughts ran through Mu Lan’s mind.

If it hits the ground, will it get contaminated?

If I let this go and continue to the next production, will the quality degrade, affecting the research results?

Will Zhang Yu be angry with her for peeking, and next time, give her a fake?

Right in front... was the genuine product she witnessed being manufactured, as real and fresh as it could be.

When Mu Lan came back to herself, she had already opened the door, knelt on one knee, and extended her hand to catch the rare treasure.

In the silent air, they exchanged glances for a moment.

Zhang Yu was furious, "You damn..."

Mu Lan somewhat embarrassedly said, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean I don’t trust you."

Zhang Yu: "Is this a matter of trust?"

Meanwhile, Mu Lan was somewhat shocked as she felt her hand and thought, "So hot... and... such a strong vitality, is it still moving even after being detached?"

Seeing Zhang Yu rising angrily, Mu Lan quickly protected the item in her hand, saying, "I want this."

Whenever Zhang Yu thought he understood the Kunxu people well, he found that people here always managed to break through his expectations again.

Watching Mu Lan protect the treasure as if it were a secret artifact, Zhang Yu sighed deeply, helplessly waving her hand, "At least get a beaker."

"And don’t forget to wash your hands."

Mu Lan shook her head, saying, "No need, I’ve sealed it with Gang Qi."

Then she faintly smiled and said, "Moreover, over the past two years, I’ve long since overcome the flaws in my heart."

"Whether rich or poor, now in my eyes, they can easily transition, and I can effortlessly accept what’s on you without being shaken anymore."

Zhang Yu opened his mouth, but he didn’t quite know what to say.

Le Mulan continued, "Zhang Yu, it was my fault this time. I’ll definitely apologize to you properly next time."

She couldn’t wait to quickly transport the items back. After briefly apologizing to Zhang Yu, she hurriedly left.

Watching her departing figure, Zhang Yu silently put on his pants, cursing in his heart, "People of Kunxu, as long as they can make money and grow stronger, they really have no shame."

"Huh?" Zhang Yu looked at the door handle, annoyed. "I told you I locked the door, did they just break the lock and rush in?"

At this moment, his phone vibrated again. Zhang Yu picked it up to see a message about a promotional event from Song Halong.

Recently, Zhang Yu renewed his position as a spokesperson for the Immortal Rhythm Group. He planned to earn more money before leaving the first floor, at least enough to gather fifty million, which would allow him to exchange for 5 spirit coins when ascending to the second floor.

Zhang Yu thought, "I’ll take some of the surplus money to bring supplies up from the first floor."

"The food up there must be expensive. I can bring more long-lasting synthetic food to save on meals initially."

...

Time continued to fly by, and on this day, Master Xinghuo taught something new to Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen.

Master Xinghuo donned a face made of flesh, appearing as a handsome, graceful middle-aged gentleman.

With the change of muscles on his face, he quickly transformed from a handsome man into an ordinary-looking young man.

Master Xinghuo said to Zhang Yu, "Controlling muscles to change appearance and form is something you should already know."

"This technique, although not difficult, can often have surprising effects, whether in combat or daily cultivation."

Master Xinghuo reminisced, "Back when I was in Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment, I often used this skill to change my face and form, fighting against multiple opponents alone, slipping in and out of large security teams, and ultimately succeeding in achieving cash on delivery."

Master Xinghuo began to detail the key points and tips for Zhang Yu on face and form changing.

"When you can see someone on the road and transform into them within a second, indistinguishable from the real thing, you’ve pretty much mastered this technique."

For Bai Zhenzhen, Master Xinghuo set a different direction.

"Azhen, you’re fast, but in real combat, it’s too easy to take risks."

"When facing someone not as fast as you, it’s fine, but encountering a faster opponent could result in instant defeat."

"Actually, speed is not only advantageous for close combat but also well-suited for ranged combat."

"After all, if you run fast enough, you can fight while retreating, minimizing injuries."

"Start by learning a basic hidden weapon cultivation technique, build a foundation, and then delve deeper later on."

Thus, under Master Xinghuo’s guidance, Bai Zhenzhen, due to the limited conditions on the first floor, first learned a Qi Refinement Realm technique and began exploring hidden weapons.

...

Inside the apartment.

Zhang Yu twisted his body, his bones crackling like great dragons coursing through his muscles.

Spring and Autumn Endless Zen Level 20

Body Strength 10.73 Level

"Finally, as a Body Refining Technique, Spring and Autumn Endless Zen has reached Level 20."

"But relying on just this Body Refining Technique, reaching this point in over three months of cultivation is slow."

"I fear it might take 3 to 4 years to raise my body strength to the Foundation Establishment limit of Level 20."

"Considering each subsequent level of body strength becomes more powerful and challenging to cultivate, requiring more and more nutrients, this timeframe might be even longer."

"The celestial resources on the 1st floor are still too limited."

Zhang Yu sighed, beginning to sense the effects of Spring and Autumn Endless Zen at Level 20.

Upon reaching Level 20, Zhang Yu can use the longevity mana condensed by Spring and Autumn Endless Zen to temporarily enter a state of pseudo-death or hibernation.

"In this state, my ability to digest medicine, metabolize toxins, and even heal bodily injuries will greatly increase."

Zhang Yu mused to himself, "My self-healing ability is really getting stronger and stronger."

Moments later, as the alarm sounded, it was time for the scheduled call with Zhang Pianpian.

Zhang Yu stepped out of the training room to find Bai Zhenzhen already operating the screen in the living room.

A few minutes later, as the screen flashed, Zhang Pianpian’s figure appeared on it.

In the screen, a halo rose behind Zhang Pianpian’s head, shining like a bright moon.

Above her head appeared words: Wanfa University Talisman Department Foundation Establishment Realm 49th Place

Bai Zhenzhen exclaimed, "Mom, what’s that above your head?"

Zhang Pianpian explained, "I recently made it into the top 100 of the department, so I chose to display my ranking above my head."

"Remember, rankings are very important in university, whether you’re a student, a teacher, or university leadership. Everyone is ranked in some way."

"The higher your ranking, the more ranking lists you occupy, the more valuable you are as a person."

"People who don’t display their ranking have only one possibility: their ranking is too low, so showing it would only bring humiliation. Such people in university are like weeds, ignored wherever they go."
