"Is this Primordial Spirit conversion?" Christina was shocked, "Did Zhou Bai succeed? Did he transform the strength of his physical body into the power of his Primordial Spirit?"
The Second Realm, also known as the Polar Realm, was the awakening of that mysterious connection between the Primordial Spirit and the physical body, allowing the free conversion of power between them—it was tantamount to breaking through limits and transforming life and death.
Following that, she saw an invisible force emerging from Zhou Bai’s glabella, which was infused into his body.
Instantly, one could see his skin and muscles plump up, his face looking rosy, and his blood flowing within him with the sound of rushing water.
Christina thought to herself, "He has transformed the power of his Primordial Spirit back into physical strength again."
Moments later, Zhou Bai opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath of white air.
"Finally, I’ve stepped into the Second Realm."
Zhou Bai slowly stood up, feeling the surging qi and blood within him. With a 20% enhancement from Dao integration, it was clear that his physique had significantly grown stronger.
And lying down like a mountain, bare-chested and barefooted, he had undoubtedly broken through his limits again.
Everywhere in his body felt like an endless reservoir of strength, and with each breath, his quick wit surged.
The strength in his body roared through him like giant dragons, akin to a dormant volcano that could erupt with earth-shattering force at any moment.
Now, Zhou Bai felt that with just a little movement, he could defeat Jiang Weishan, who had contended with him in the Second Realm.
"There won’t be any problems now," Zhou Bai said with a satisfied smile, "When it’s time for my assessment, I’ll take Pure Jun and Cheng Ying to chop down Jiang Weishan. He’s sure to lose. No, I think even if Meng Ruocun, ranked first, came, I could defeat her."
Seeing Zhou Bai brimming with confidence, Christina couldn’t help but throw cold water on his excitement, "You’re at 20% Dao integration now, so how will you cultivate next?"
Zhou Bai clenched his fist, listening to the continuous popping sounds as he compressed the air, and said slowly and deliberately, "After cultivating the Original Dao Codex 02 to 20% Dao integration, I received a set of coordinates, probably left by Doctor Zhuang."
"Oh?" Christina’s eyes lit up, "Could it be the Original Dao Codex 03?"
"Quite possible," Zhou Bai said, "I have a feeling that Doctor Zhuang is luring those who practice the Original Dao Codex to follow the clues and find him."
Just then, Elsa, who was beside them, whined a few times, barking at the twisting shadow on the ground before turning her head to Zhou Bai, "Zhou Bai! Look!"
"Is it starting to twist again?" Zhou Bai quickly rushed over to seal the statue again. He then planned to take Christina to the library to look at maps and confirm the coordinates’ location.
Seeing Zhou Bai and Christina about to leave, the human-shaped Elsa immediately wagged her tail excitedly, jumped up, ran to the sofa, grabbed her collar and placed it around her neck, then hugged Zhou Bai and said, "Zhou Bai! Take me out with you! I want to wander around the cafeteria!"
"I promise I won’t get hungry!"
Zhou Bai helplessly put the little girl back on the bed, removed her collar, and instructed, "Remember, Elsa, when you transform into a human in the future, you don’t need to wear a collar, alright? And I’m going to the library now, not the cafeteria."

"The library?" Elsa blinked in surprise, then excited again, "What do they eat at the library?"
"The library is for reading books! Silly dog!" Tina leaped onto Elsa’s head, raised her paw and smacked it down repeatedly, "Stay home and be good, got it?"
After leaving Elsa behind, Zhou Bai and Christina finally located the position of the coordinates after rummaging through the library.
Looking at the map before him, Zhou Bai exclaimed in surprise, "It’s that far? That position, isn’t it on the northwestern front? I heard that place is always at war with the Heavenly Demon."
Christina: "What should we do? That place is too dangerous."
Zhou Bai frowned and did not speak, thinking for a while before he said, "For the time being, let’s continue to cultivate in the school. My divine diagram and Primordial Spirit value have not reached their peak, and your strength also has a lot of room for improvement.
Moreover, after you’ve finished cultivating the Original Tao Treasures, I can sell them and earn quite a few laziness points. Let’s consider this issue when our strength has reached its pinnacle."
Zhou Bai walked towards his dormitory: "Laziness points, laziness points, never enough to spend."
...
The next day after class, Zhou Bai walked towards the cafeteria with light steps, ready to eat, when he suddenly saw the artificial sky blaze with brightness.
Then, accompanied by bursts of golden light and celestial music, vast auspicious clouds appeared in the sky.
The surrounding crowd began to grow tense.
"Auspicious clouds? Have celestial beings arrived?"
"Why would celestial beings come to Donghua City?"
"Could it be that the Heavenly Demon is going to attack?"
Zhou Bai unexpectedly watched the auspicious clouds in the sky spread rapidly, and then he saw a carriage pulled by twelve golden dragon-steeds, accompanied by celestial music, golden light, and a profusion of petals, charging recklessly on its way towards the northern part of the Dao School.
Christina: "It must be one of the Heavenly Court’s bunch. From what I remember, these guys always enjoy a grand spectacle."
"Heavenly Court?" Zhou Bai exclaimed, "Are those the ones who have achieved a Dao transformation degree of over 100% and ascended?"
"Of course, not everyone in the Heavenly Court can be a celestial being," said Christina. "Only a very small part of them become celestial beings or gods, and then they recruit a large number of cultivators to serve under them.
Secondly, it’s the descendance of the celestial beings. If one parent is a celestial being, the offspring are born as celestial offsprings and begin life in the first realm."
Christina: "However, as far as I remember, celestial offsprings should mainly cultivate in the Heavenly Court in Central City and don’t often come to the Four Great Taoist Schools. Those here should be cultivators sent out by the Heavenly Court."
...
Meanwhile, on the flying carriage, a young man wearing a golden crown, clad in a silver-threaded Taoist robe, with a cinnabar mole between his eyebrows, lay lazily on the carriage, his gaze casually looking out the window.
"So this is Donghua Dao School? Truly dilapidated. It lacks any celestial aura at all, a poor claim to be one of the Four Great Taoist Schools."
A man in golden armor beside him bowed his head and said, "Your Highness has lived in the Heavenly Court since childhood, naturally, ordinary landscapes don’t catch your eye. However, this place does gather all the cultivation geniuses of Donghua City, it’s just the lack of resources that doesn’t show from the outside."
"Hmph, cultivation geniuses?" The young man sneered, "These mundane breeds dare to claim themselves as geniuses?"
"In front of your highness, naturally, they cannot be called geniuses," the man in golden armor said with a smile. "At best, they are mediocrities, but even mediocrities have their uses, and precisely need your leadership."
"Mundane people are incompetent and trivial; if it weren’t for the wise leadership of our Heavenly Court, they would have been wiped out by the Heavenly Demon ages ago." The young man shook his head in disdain. "If it weren’t for Mother’s command, why would I ever leave Central City."
"Alas, I hope this place doesn’t disappoint me too much."
The man in golden armor said, "Then, your Highness, shall we go check out the special training class first?"
"No, let’s go to the new class first to get an understanding of the situation at the grassroots level."
