Once, I wanted to be a good person

Compared to Jiang Cheng's entire body lighting up, Fang Ze's illumination resembled a space devoid of lines, just an empty form.

To reach Jiang Cheng's level, Fang Ze needed to fill those "lines" from the inside, which was the second stage of Spirit Ascension: Flesh and Blood!

Unlike other Awakeners who had lost their physical bodies and relied on the Power of Laws to stimulate cell division and then "fake" a new body, Fang Ze was fortunate enough to have his own body. Therefore, he didn't need to generate any flesh and blood, only to continue his permeation endeavor.

However, this time he couldn't perform this permeation in the Real World.

According to the Si Family's "Spirit Ascension Training Guide", though simple practices like Spirit Structure could rely solely on the Power of Laws within the Awakener's body, more intensive tasks like Flesh and Blood needed the vast Power of Laws from the Spirit Realm.

But the Spirit Realm is no safe place. Fang Ze had too many enemies; he dared not absorb the Power of Laws there, let alone use "High-Interest Loans" in the Real World, fearing the resulting Law Tide would expose his power. Fortunately, he had the Late-Night Investigation Room!

So, Fang Ze didn't even return to his villa but immediately lay down on the bed in Room 8 and fell into a deep sleep.

Who knows how much time passed, but when Fang Ze woke up, he was already in the Late-Night Investigation Room.

Upon arrival, he didn't execute his plan to investigate the Mortality-Shedding realm to incorporate it. Instead, he sat down, closed his eyes, and resumed training.

With experience from the Spirit Structure stage, condensing his flesh and blood progressed much more smoothly this time!

Following the order suggested in the Si Family's manual, he started by condensing the heart.

The heart is one of the most important organs, the driving force of the body's circulation system! According to the manual, once the heart is condensed, blood can be generated. When both heart and blood are formed, the heart will drive the blood to flow along the "contours" and automatically condense other organs.

Although Fang Ze differed from other Spirit Ascension Awakeners, he figured if he first permeated the heart and blood, it would help him quickly permeate other organs, achieving twice the results with half the effort!

With this in mind, Fang Ze began his training!

He closed his eyes and started to gather the Power of Laws, permeating the heart bit by bit.

Thanks to the contours formed during the Spirit Structure stage, this permeation, though harder, proceeded smoothly. In just five minutes, Fang Ze had permeated the outer layer of the heart.

Having successfully tested the heart's permeation, Fang Ze didn't hesitate to use "High-Interest Loans" to accelerate.

This time, the loan priced at 30 million Lini. Without hesitation, the wealthy Fang Ze agreed.

As the loan took effect, terrifying Power of Laws gathered, causing Fang Ze's heart to rapidly undergo a qualitative change. With it, the ordinary blood flowing in turned into radiant gold.

Quickly, with each heartbeat, massive amounts of golden blood surged through his body, making Fang Ze feel warm all over. Under internal inspection, he saw the golden blood swiftly permeating all organs, inducing wonderful changes...

Feeling the great progress in his training, Fang Ze felt euphoric, sensing that he was close to entering the Yang Transformation stage!

After all, his body existed, making the Yin-Yang Fusion stage irrelevant. The reason his training was tough was that his fusion was continuous and ongoing, blending the previous two stages.

As he realized only patience separated him from the Yang Transformation stage, Fang Ze thought of a term: Half-step Sun Transformation!

So, am I now considered at the half-step of Sun Transformation?

He smiled and continued to focus on his body's changes.

......

Meanwhile.

As Fang Ze was engrossed in his training.

Unbeknownst to him, his body in the Real World was emitting waves of Law Fluctuations.

Despite his careful preparations, absorbing the Power of Laws outside the Real World, some principles persisted...

His rapidly transforming body increased the internal Power of Laws' concentration, which inevitably diffused into the air, creating subtle Law Fluctuations extending from Villa 8's aura...

Though faint, these fluctuations stood out during the night when few trained, catching the attention of some Yang Transformation experts in the Si Family. They paused, turned towards Villa 8, and frowned.

Besides them, there were other "masters" in the Si Family estate.

Fang Ze's room.

"Huh? This fluctuation?"

Laying in bed, the Flower God stopped swinging her little feet, looked towards Villa 8, sniffed the air, and revealed a surprised expression, "Such a strong plant scent!"

"What's over there? Why is there such a strong plant-scented fluctuation?"
