My equipment is designed for cultivation; I started by slaughtering my way through a small world.

Clicking on the Taixu Dharma Seal reveals the Immortal Wood Group Bloodline Research Institute, named Zhang Yubai.

It turns out it was that distant cousin!

"Uncle."

Hearing Gu Qing's voice from the other end of the Taixu Dharma Seal, Zhang Yubai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He immediately tensed up, "Nephew, your spiritual cultivation has progressed rapidly. In just two days, you've reached the second level of Qi Refining."

"Uncle, you flatter me."

Gu Qing smiled slightly.

But then I thought, how could my uncle know that I had just broken through?

Is there something wrong with this?

"Uncle, I have something to ask you."

"I just broke through, how did you know I'd reached the second level of Qi Refining?"

"Huh!"

At the other end of the Taixu Dharma Seal, Zhang Yubai exclaimed in surprise.

Then he countered, "Nephew, when you signed the mercenary contract with the Xianmu Group, didn't you read it carefully?"

Before Gu Qing could answer, Zhang Yubai continued, "The mercenaries under the Xianmu Group are monitored by the group, which can obtain information about your cultivation level."

"Based on the mercenary's cultivation level, different levels of mercenary missions will be carried out."

Upon closer reflection, it seems to make some sense.

but……

In this situation, the Immortal Wood Group has the authority to access one's cultivation information at any time.

Hiding one's abilities and pretending to be weak to outsmart others doesn't seem to work.

Seeing that Gu Qing remained silent for a long time, Zhang Yubai suddenly changed the subject: "Nephew, what have you thought about the matter of the Myriad Laws Bloodline?"

"This matter will be of great benefit to you."

"As a true spirit creature of the void, the Nine Profound Heavenly Beast, even in its immature form, possesses a sixth-order cultivation level."

"Developing the Myriad Techniques Bloodline from its flesh and blood is extremely rare and difficult. Once a clinical trial is successful, this kind of bloodline will not easily leak out."

"This opportunity is once in a lifetime..."

At the other end of the Taixu Dharma Seal, Zhang Yubai forcibly controlled his emotions, trying his best to maintain his dignity.

Researching and breaking through the Void True Spirit Bloodline is still too difficult.

As near-perfect beings, the Void Spirits are more powerful than ordinary immortals.

After graduating from one of the top ten universities in the Immortal Kingdom, Zhang Yubai joined the Immortal Wood Group to oversee research on the Nine Profound Heavenly Beast bloodline. The bloodline technology development proceeded smoothly until, unexpectedly, it stalled at the final step: clinical trials.

Despite investing significant resources, they failed to move from the laboratory to the market.

At the Immortal Wood Group's Bloodline Research Institute, many people are eyeing Zhang Yubai's resources and have begun to stir up trouble to cut off the Myriad Laws Bloodline project.

Ever since he discovered that his distant nephew Gu Qing possessed five levels of mental states, he had placed his hopes on Gu Qing.

This is the perfect subject for technology verification!!

Therefore, he would try his best to meet any request Gu Qing made.

of course.

Zhang Yubai did not appear too eager, lest Gu Qing make exorbitant demands.

Instead, he kept telling Gu Qing about the benefits of the Myriad Laws Bloodline.

They induced Gu Qing to agree to the matter voluntarily.

"Uncle."

"This is inappropriate. As a true spirit of the void, the Nine Profound Heavenly Beast's bloodline is too domineering."

"The risk is too high..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yubai was immediately enraged.

Outrageous!

He's practically a piece of rotten wood. If he could obtain the Bloodline of Ten Thousand Laws, this kid's future achievements would be limitless.

Anger welled up inside him, but all he could do was vent it.

This clinical trial wouldn't have been possible without this guy.

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Yubai added, "Nephew, your uncle knows you are about to participate in the second mercenary trial."

"In that case, if you agree to this experiment, you will invest 10,000 spirit coins in the name of the project."

"What do you think?"

"Uncle, this isn't about money..."

Before Gu Qing could finish speaking, Zhang Yubai spoke again:

"Twenty thousand spirit coins!!"

"cough……"

Gu Qing couldn't help but cough.

I thought about it.

Judging from my experience with the [Taiyin Crystal Armor Beast Demon Crystal] equipment in the ancient martial arts world, the equipment slot can digest bloodline inheritance. Compared to ordinary cultivators, I can completely use the equipment slot to digest the myriad laws bloodline.

This was a very important opportunity for me.

only……

Currently, it is Zhang Yubai's cousin who needs him to verify the Wanfa bloodline.

Thinking of all this, Gu Qing feigned hesitation and said, "Uncle, the Myriad Laws Bloodline experiment is very dangerous. We need to discuss this in detail..."

"It's okay."

"I'll go to Silver Moon Residential Area right now, and we can have a proper talk, okay?"

At the other end of the Taixu Dharma Seal, Zhang Yubai saw Gu Qing relax, and his tightly furrowed brows immediately relaxed.

As long as Gu Qing agrees, he can keep increasing the stakes until Gu Qing finally agrees to the clinical trial of the Myriad Laws Bloodline.

Looking up at the time, Gu Qing frowned slightly and hesitated before saying, "I have to attend a class reunion later, so I probably won't be home."

"How about we talk about it again tomorrow?!"

"etc……"

"Your class reunion shouldn't take more than a day."

"How about this!"

"Nephew, you go to your class reunion first. I'll come pick you up myself later."

After finishing my conversation with Zhang Yubai.

Not long after, his best friend He Lou arrived outside the Silver Moon residential area in an extremely cool hovercar.

When Gu Qing arrived at the entrance of the residential area, He Lou opened the car door:

"Dad, get in the car quickly."

"Can't you be a little more discreet?!"

"Oh--"

"How can you be worthy of your Rookie of the Year status if you don't drive a luxury car?"

Let's go!

The two arrived together at the place where their classmates were having a reunion.

He Lou and Gu Qing arrived together.

Wang Jian, the class monitor and the initiator of this gathering, was the first to arrive and kept a close eye on the people coming and going.

"He Lou, please come inside."

"Gu Qing, congratulations on passing the mercenary trial and embarking on the path of cultivation."

"Come in quickly!"

Leading the two into the room, Wang Jian pointed to a group of people not far away and said, "Look who's here! It's been a year since we last saw each other. Come on, come on, don't be shy..."

Gu Qing glanced at them and immediately recognized them as his high school classmates.

"Gu Qing, it's been a long time."

The boy wearing glasses greeted Gu Qing.

"Huh!"

"Gu Qing, you've changed so much. Your demeanor has changed a lot. The mercenary trial is indeed a place to temper people. One general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand."

A girl looked Gu Qing up and down, keenly noticing the subtle changes in him, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Hello everyone!!"

Seeing the students who had arrived earlier greeting him, Gu Qing waved to them.

but……

Just then, a cold voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Wang Jian, why are you even inviting cannon fodder mercenaries?"

"Inviting mediocre students from ordinary universities is one thing, but inviting cannon fodder mercenaries only lowers the overall quality of the class reunion."

A group of people walked towards us from outside the door.

The person who just spoke was Han Xuan, who was also admitted to one of the top ten universities in the Immortal Kingdom.

He stepped forward to the front of the crowd.

The students who were just chatting and laughing immediately fell silent.

Gu Qing remained unmoved, showing neither fear nor shame. Han Xuan raised an eyebrow at Gu Qing and said calmly:

"What, you're not convinced?!"

"You have a problem with being cannon fodder?"
