The process of deification began with the discovery of hidden information in divine objects.

After Xu Lu submitted her report, the approval result came down very quickly.

Moreover, it was personally reviewed by Sun Yelin. Qingye Middle School already lacked outstanding students, so a dark horse like Su Ziye, who emerged at the end of the semester, naturally received special attention.

Once approved, one can take the pass to the sacred object room to receive baptism.

"Between the Immovable Vajra and the Taiyin Jade Tree Sapling, which of these two divine objects would you choose? Generally speaking, boys would choose the Immovable Vajra first to enhance their physical fitness and strength."

On the way to the Divine Object Room, Xu Lu asked Su Ziye curiously.

"I'll probably choose the [Taiyin Jade Tree Sapling]."

Su Ziye thought for a moment before answering.

His physical abilities are already quite strong; he has skin of copper and bones of iron, and is as strong as an ox. No amount of further enhancement could double his physical strength.

Instead of doing that, it would be better to strengthen your five senses and brain first. This way, you will learn more efficiently and achieve twice the results with half the effort. When you receive the baptism of the [Immovable Vajra] for the second time, you will be able to cultivate divine arts at a faster speed.

Although the improvement is not significant at present, it is clearly more valuable, more convenient, and faster in comparison to the future.

"Oh? Generally speaking, students who are lacking in theoretical courses will choose the [Taiyin Jade Tree Sapling] first, but your theoretical grades are quite good."

Xu Lu was somewhat surprised.

However, she then remembered Su Ziye's feat of moving heavy stones and understood.

"Actually, Professor Wang Yiwei and I have a bold guess."

She hesitated for a moment.

"Su Ziye, you might also possess divine power, otherwise your terrifying strength is inexplicable! If it truly is divine power, then that's incredible—a talent that even students in elite classes dream of!"

"Really?"

Su Ziye remained extremely calm.

"Can't you give me some kind of response?"

"Teacher, what kind of reaction do you want?"

"Divine power, that's divine power! A talent far beyond that of ordinary people, something so many people dream of, why don't you feel it at all!"

Xu Lu was speechless, while Su Ziye remained silent. He couldn't very well say, "I know what kind of person I am, right? Without those awakened wonders, I'd still be a useless piece of trash."

The Divine Objects Room is a separate building next to the stadium, with gray and white exterior walls that look quite old.

A greenish-brown bronze plaque hung on the door, with a few somewhat blurry large characters engraved on it.

This is a sacred place; unauthorized personnel are not permitted to enter.

Xu Lu swiped her access card, and the heavy iron gate slowly opened with a muffled hum.

Before them was a passageway, with two houses on either side, both locked by iron gates. Sun Yelin stood in the passageway waiting for them.

He was wearing a Zhongshan suit, his gray hair was neatly combed, and he had a dignified expression. His gaze as he looked at Su Ziye was full of scrutiny.

"Principal Sun, I've brought the person."

Xu Lu bowed respectfully. The principal of Qingye Middle School not only held a high position, but also possessed considerable strength. He was a person with extremely high attainments in the Divine Radiance Realm, and was only a step away from the next realm.

"You can go out now."

Sun Yelin waved his hand, and Xu Lu respectfully stepped out, then closed the door.

"Su Ziye, your test result was only 35 points of divinity a week ago, and now it's 79 points in just a few days... That's an astonishing rate of improvement."

Su Ziye felt a little nervous. Could this old man be suspicious of him?

"I have high hopes for you! Work hard!"

Su Ziye breathed a sigh of relief; nothing was wrong.

"Thank you, Principal. I will definitely work hard to bring honor to the school."

"Hmm, on the left is the baptismal chamber for the [Acala] Vajra, and on the right is the [Taiyin Jade Tree Sapling]. Which one do you choose?"

"right."

"The [Immovable Vajra] will provide a more direct boost, while the [Taiyin Jade Tree Sapling] is more of a supportive approach with less noticeable short-term effects. Are you sure? Have you thought it through? Once you've made your choice, there's no going back. The next baptism will have to wait until you've fully mastered the divine art!"

Sun Yelin reminded him.

Su Ziye nodded.

Sun Yelin took out the key and opened the right-hand gate.

"Go in. The baptism will last for one hour. Remember, these sacred objects are imbued with spirits; do not offend them."

Su Ziye stepped into the room. The room was not large, and it was surrounded by corrugated iron walls. The air was strangely fresh.

The room was about 30 to 40 square meters, with a display case in the center! The [Taiyin Jade Tree Sapling] was only the size of a palm, like a newly sprouted seedling, pure white, emitting a soft moonlight, and quietly floating in the center of the display case, as if it were alive.

In front of the display case, there is a futon with a sign next to it that says, "Take off your shoes and socks, sit cross-legged, and wait attentively."

He did as instructed, and then the divine object trembled slightly, and a moon-like light descended, sprinkling onto Su Ziye's body, as if he were draped in a moonlit veil. Then, strands of silver threads began to spread across his entire body!

Like countless chains, Su Ziye felt as if something had pierced through his body, and a cool sensation rushed from the surface of his skin straight to his brain!

It was like pouring ice water into his veins; in an instant, his mind became incredibly clear, and everything around him quieted down except for the sound of his own breathing!

Then... the sound of breathing began to fade into the distance, and he saw a clear night lake, on which a bright full moon slowly rose into the sky!

The full moon hangs high in the sky, huge, cold, silvery-white, lonely, and exuding a chill!

The moonlight completely enveloped his entire body, and Su Ziye's vision, hearing, smell, and touch were all heightened to their peak. He could even sense the dampness in the air.

"This is... the baptism of the divine objects?"

My mind is crystal clear, as if I have supernatural powers. My five senses are sharp and I reach my peak. When I close my eyes, I can even imagine the thickness of my skin and hair!

Then, in the moonlight, he saw rows of text.

Calm your mind and focus on the One, clear your mind and senses, and you will be immune to all evil!

This is the essence of the Taiyin Refining Spirit Technique, but the next second Su Ziye's eyes widened!

He saw the words glow with a blue light, and then they began to be reformatted, forming entirely new text in front of him!

The moonlight cleanses the marrow, the spirit condenses in the vast emptiness, a single thought brings clarity, and all things are reflected!

He suddenly felt a strange sense of absurdity. Could these words be... the original divine technique of the divine object, the Taiyin Jade Tree Heart Sutra?

But didn't Xu Lu say that only the holder of the divine artifact can cultivate the original divine arts?

"Is it those eyes again?"

Su Ziye reached out and gently touched her eyelids.

The simplified version of the divine technique is only half or about 60% as powerful as the original. If this is truly the Taiyin Jade Tree Heart Sutra, then the improvement he has gained this time is probably quite remarkable!

Su Ziye closed his eyes and began to comprehend the matter with a clear mind.

"By drawing in moonlight, we can develop our brain's capabilities, amplifying our senses, just as the bright moon illuminates a vast river, revealing every detail of the world!"

"So that's how it is! This is the Taiyin Jade Tree Heart Sutra!"

Su Ziye opened her eyes, and an hour passed quickly.

This baptism did not improve his physical strength, but Su Ziye clearly felt that his five senses had become extremely sharp. In battle, this ability would be absolutely terrifying.

If you can easily capture the opponent's attack trajectory, then the fight will be a complete dimensional reduction!

Boom!

The door was pushed open, and Sun Yelin stood outside.

"Come out, the baptism is over."

Su Ziye got up, put on her shoes and socks, and walked out of the room.

"How did your first baptism feel?"

"My mind is clear; I can grasp the key points of knowledge that I didn't understand before."

"Very good, this is the effect of a divine object, turning decay into wonder. However, even after being baptized, if you want to improve further, you still need to diligently cultivate the divine arts."

"No matter how powerful a divine object is, it is still an external thing. The key is that it is in people's hands. Only when you learn something can you truly own it."

Sun Yelin reminded him again.

"Alright, let's go, others are coming for baptism."

When Su Ziye left the Divine Objects Room, she saw several young people dressed in designer clothes heading towards the Divine Objects Room under the guidance of the Dean of Students.

These young people have a completely different temperament from the students in the regular classes. Their inherent confidence and pride are something that students in the regular classes simply cannot imitate. Su Ziye calls this feeling "noble".

"A student in an elite class?"

Su Ziye noticed that among the group, there was a tall and slender young man. Even among the students in the aristocratic class, his temperament stood out from the crowd. He had bright and dazzling long silver hair, delicate and fair skin, and his features were so handsome that he looked like a woman!

Even though she was at the back of the line and there was a noticeable distance between her and the other students, she still left a strong impression on Su Ziye.

"What a handsome man..."
