Chapter 956: Chapter 252: Giving Bai Zhi Private Lessons

Even with Bai Zhi’s strong character, if it were an ordinary girl, she might have already been overwhelmed.

Yet, during this time, her heart has accumulated too much sadness.

So, when she heard Fang Ze’s apology, for a moment, grievances surged in her heart, her nose felt a bit sore, and her eyes began to redden.

But who was she? She was Bai Zhi!

So, she held back her tears, pushed down her grievances, and smiled, saying, “It’s okay. I know you’re busy, so I adjusted myself. Don’t worry.”

At this moment, Fang Ze was already squatting down, feeling Bai Zhi’s leg muscles and tendons.

He didn’t say much else. Sometimes, actions speak louder than words.

Thinking this way, after checking Bai Zhi’s martial arts cultivation status, Fang Ze also slowly stood up.

The reason he was so earnestly examining Bai Zhi’s body, even asking her to take off her shirt, was not due to ulterior motives, but because he wanted to do something significant: that was to let Bai Zhi try walking his path.

Perhaps influenced by various religions and customs from his past life, Fang Ze always felt that the extraordinary path of abandoning the physical body and remolding it in this world had issues.

But before, he merely suspected, not daring to confirm whether he was the one diverging off track.

Until he personally experimented, keeping the physical body all the way to the Mortality-Shedding stage without any issues, and found himself stronger than those of the same stage, he finally confirmed that this path, whether right or not, seemed at least not wrong.

And the people of this world, the reason they chose to abandon this path was not that it was a dead end, but because they were taking shortcuts.

Due to insufficient talent or resources, people in this world, wanting to quickly improve their strength, could only abandon the physical body: to some extent, likely related to the constant world-ending threats they face. They have to quickly advance to confront enemies.

However, Bai Zhi, backed by Fang Ze and funded with resources by Bai Ling, was different.

She has a strong background, remarkable martial arts talent, a close relationship with Fang Ze, able to receive his protection, and since she has broken through to the [Forge Tendon Tempering] realm, she can directly use [Credit World] to impact her law apertures. So she was very suited to take this stronger path, hence Fang Ze’s meticulous examination of her martial arts cultivation.

And now, having confirmed Bai Zhi’s martial arts cultivation was fine and her bodily condition was completely capable of keeping her physical body to impact Spirit Ascension, Fang Ze no longer hesitated.

He glanced at Bai Ling, who was standing aside, trying hard to lift her hand for unknown reasons, then said to Bai Zhi, “What I’m going to tell you next is top secret.”

“I’m telling you because I trust you and Bai Ling.”

Seeing Fang Ze so earnest, Bai Zhi couldn’t help but lift her head to look at Fang Ze.

Fang Ze said, “I’ve actually found an ascension method different from the current mainstream cultivation paths.”

Hearing Fang Ze’s words, Bai Zhi showed surprise, then looked at Fang Ze.

At this moment, Fang Ze’s body trembled slightly, and the surroundings behind him distorted and changed, as if a boundless starry sky unfolded, and a towering Golden Bell phantom appeared behind him, enveloping the entire practice field.

Bai Zhi and Bai Ling looked up in surprise at the Golden Bell, both taken aback.

Fang Ze said, “That’s right. I’ve already reached the Mortality-Shedding stage through this path and am breaking through toward Ascension.”

“So what I can assure you is that at least up to the Mortality-Shedding realm, this extraordinary path has no issues.”

“Moreover, this path is actually compatible with the officially orthodox cultivation paths, and if found unfit, it can be abandoned at any stage after the Spirit Ascension stage to return to orthodoxy.”

Frankly speaking, Fang Ze’s explanation wasn’t fully absorbed by the two girls…

Because when they saw the Golden Bell behind Fang Ze, exuding endless pressure, they were already stunned. Bai Zhi couldn’t help but ask, “So, you’ve already… Mortality-Shedding? Is this your Dharma Aspect?”

Fang Ze was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

Upon hearing Fang Ze’s word, Bai Zhi and Bai Ling, with only her eyes visible, exchanged a glance.

As the first to interact with Fang Ze, Bai Zhi and Bai Ling could be said to understand what a mess Fang Ze was half a year ago.

Back then, Fang Ze was not only a criminal but also an ordinary man without any extraordinary abilities!

Yet, in only half a year, Fang Ze had reached the Mortality-Shedding stage?!

To be honest, in this half a year, they had barely made any progress at all.

Though they knew of Fang Ze’s rapid cultivation progress, this speed was too terrifying!

At this moment, Fang Ze looked at Bai Zhi, comforting her, “Actually, the Mortality-Shedding stage isn’t difficult, as long as….”

Bai Zhi and Bai Ling didn’t even hear the latter half, they only caught the first part with a mind full of questions: Mortality-Shedding stage isn’t difficult?

Look at that, is this something a person would say!

If the Mortality-Shedding stage were truly not difficult, then why would someone at the Yang Transformation stage be so highly valued by the Federation! Why could someone in the Mortality-Shedding stage support a top family in an entire state!

Bai Ling also remembered her family. The strongest in her family seemed to be her father, and he was only at the Yang Transformation stage. Fang Ze already surpassed her father, meaning Fang Ze could already be….

As her thoughts jumbled up to this point, Bai Ling quickly shook her head, dispelling the thoughts. What was she thinking? How messy!
