Chapter 694 Zhang Yu, the Demon Descendant (6300+ words)

Hearing what the God of Report said, Fu Ji said: "Abduct a million college students? You might as well just let me attack the Heavenly Demon University directly."

God of News: If you're willing, I support you.

Reporting God: Don't worry, God of Fortune, I would never let my colleagues die in vain.

Report to the God: The entire operation is meticulously planned, and there's no need for a direct confrontation with the Heavenly Demon University. Besides, you won't be the only one in charge of this mission.

Report to God: After all, I don't know your abilities or those of your followers. This mission is also a test for me.

God of News: I hope you can perform well.

Fuki: What about the reward? You guys made over a million college students in one go, you can't just give me some righteousness points and call it a day, can you?

Reporting to the God: We're not making money from this project; it's all for the public good and for the future of Kunxu.

Fukuhime: Keep blowing!

Report to the Gods: We rescued these college students to denounce the darkness of the top ten universities and to awaken the apathetic people of Kunxu. These rescued college students will become our model college students, living the life that all college students yearn for.

Reporting God: We want everyone to understand that with the arrival of the Righteous Alliance, everyone can make money; with the arrival of the Righteous Alliance, good days are coming.

...

After finishing his communication with the God of Reports, Zhang Yu unknowingly found himself inside the laboratory.

Looking at the empty soil piled up before him, Zhang Yu sighed inwardly, "There's still too much missing."

"With the resources of the research association, I can also get a share of empty soil. Although this amount may be enough for experiments and refining large and small Ruyi Rings, it is still far from enough to teach the basics of immortal techniques."

Zhang Yu had estimated this again and again, and even taking into account the increased production in the future, it would probably take two months before he could get started.

However, with the rapid increase in production, he should not lack empty soil in his subsequent cultivation.

Then, more information appeared in his eyes.

True Lord of String Sound: The latest batch of imported soil from other schools has been stopped.

True Lord Xianyin: The companies on our campus are doing alright. The companies on the other top ten campuses are currently under strict control regarding land availability, with priority given to their own universities; money is secondary.

Seeing the reply from True Lord Xianyin, Zhang Yu was not surprised at all. He was not a college student and thought that the top ten students could buy anything as long as they were willing to spend money.

Airborne soil has become a key material for space technology, but its production capacity is currently insufficient. Under these circumstances, airborne soil has become a rare strategic resource.

Even a fool could tell that... this kind of thing would be strictly controlled by other universities in the near future, and would rarely be exported to Wanfa University. Instead, it would be prioritized for supplying their own researchers at the Nascent Soul and Divine Transformation stages.

Just as Zhang Yu was sighing inwardly, Fu Ji said, "Zhang Yu, I've thought about the mission from the God of Reporting this time, and I still have to do it."

“Now that this guy has the Evil God's Book in his hands, even if he can't find us for the time being, as the Evil God's Book is perfected, he will eventually be able to figure out our background completely.”

"There's nowhere to hide from these kinds of things; the only option is to face them head-on."

Fuki said firmly, "Let's take this opportunity to climb up the ranks of the Righteous Alliance. We must reach the upper echelons of the Righteous Alliance before the Evil God's Book is completely perfected, and ideally, we should be the ones to control the Evil God's Book in the end."

The thought of having a list of colleagues and being able to order whatever they wanted only strengthened Fuki's resolve.

Zhang Yu nodded slightly, thinking to himself, "The Righteous Alliance... It seems that whether it's to learn the immortal arts as soon as possible or to avoid exposing my identity in the future, I have no choice but to join. But I need to figure out how to hide my identity..."

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu silently activated the "Demon Saint's Myriad Transformations Divine Skill," and his flesh and blood underwent a sudden change.

Although he still appears to be in human form, his body has transformed into that of a demon.

And if he wanted, he could transform his appearance into that of a demon through the "Demon Saint's Myriad Transformations".

This dark technique from the Azure Water Golden Crystal Armor is one of the techniques passed down by the Great Sage of the Chain Magic Diagram. It allows Zhang Yu to transform into various demon races at any time, and even create demon avatars.

However, Zhang Yu had never imagined that there would be any occasion where he would need to impersonate a demon.

However, if we want to complete the Righteous Alliance mission this time, then the identity of a demon descendant is quite good.

"In addition to the appearance, the fighting style also needs to be changed."

"The original batch of magical artifacts and magical remains are obviously unusable."

Zhang Yu thought for a moment, and the idea of ​​the unused military-grade cultivation technique selection pack in the Dark Spirit Realm flashed through his mind.

"Let's find a military-grade martial art from another university to cover it up..."

In the following period, Zhang Yu began to prepare for the operation.

Suddenly, the exam notice for his class appeared in his mind's eye.

"take an exam?"

Zhang Yu suddenly felt that he hadn't touched those two words in a long time.

"Speaking of which, I'm already a second-year graduate student without even realizing it."

"If everything goes smoothly, I should be pursuing my doctorate when the Heavenly Court returns."

"Time... has passed by so quickly without us realizing it."

Zhang Yu sighed and glanced at the exam notice. Then he heard Fu Ji say, "With our True Lord status, we still need to go to the exam hall? Wanfa University is really inflexible."

Zhang Yu said, "After all, it's one of the top ten universities, with strict rules. Besides, as a candidate, if I have the time, I should take the exam. I can't just keep skipping it."

Over the next two days, Zhang Yu completed the exam while preparing for the exam.

...

Several days later.

Kunxu, 2nd floor.

Inside a transportation company affiliated with Tianmo University.

Zhang Yu was walking towards a huge cargo airship.

The flying boat floated in mid-air, its enormous shadow covering the earth, making it look like a piece of land floating in the sky.

The cargo, densely packed, is being transported upwards, gradually filling the storage space inside the airship.

Zhang Yu's appearance at this moment was quite different from his usual appearance.

With thick fur covering his entire body, exuding a wild aura, Zhang Yu had transformed into a monkey demon, wearing a transportation company uniform as he walked towards the airship.

Looking around at the busy workers who weren't paying attention to him, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "The Righteous Alliance's infiltration of the Ten Greats is even deeper than I expected."

Although he possessed the ability to transform into a demon descendant using the "Demon Saint's Myriad Transformations" technique, Zhang Yu understood that the key factor in his successful infiltration and safe passage was the false identity provided by the Righteous Alliance.

The reason he was a monkey demon was because the God of Fortune asked the God of Reporting to provide a false identity for a demon descendant. After the God of Reporting provided a monkey demon, Zhang Yu transformed into the appearance of a monkey demon.

This was both to conceal his identity at Tianmo University and to hide it from the Righteous Alliance.

At this moment, apart from his transformed flesh and blood, Zhang Yu no longer carried any other magical artifacts that might expose his identity. Even his eye sockets had been replaced with secondhand ones stolen along the way.

Upon arriving at the agreed-upon location beneath the airship, Zhang Yu saw three other employees already waiting there.

These three were Zhang Yu's partners in this operation. According to the information provided by the God of Reports, these three should all have the cultivation level of Nascent Soul and be followers of other evil gods.

Zhang Yu guessed that these three Nascent Soul cultivators must have broken through without a certificate, otherwise the probability of a regular Nascent Soul cultivator joining the Righteous Alliance would be too low.

Just then, a thin, frail-looking middle-aged man among the three looked at Zhang Yu and asked, "Qi Tian?"

Qi Tian was Zhang Yu's code name.

Seeing Zhang Yu nod, the middle-aged man checked the slogans with Zhang Yu again to confirm that they were correct before introducing himself: "I'm 007, this beautiful lady is on the night shift, and this veteran employee is..."

The work schedule of 007, some working night shifts, some dying of old age... Zhang Yu glanced at the middle-aged man, the robust woman, and another old man, thinking to himself that the code names of these Righteous Alliance cultivators were clearly filled with expectations for a happy life in Kunxu.

At the same time, the three 007s were also sizing up Zhang Yu.

The burly night shift worker appeared expressionless, but inwardly he frowned: "A monkey demon? Is a monkey demon's nascent soul reliable? Could it be his own Extreme Tiger Golden Core and Extreme Tiger Nascent Soul?"

She couldn't trust the demon's strength at all, and decided to pretend the other party didn't exist during the mission.

The old man, his face etched with deep wrinkles, thought to himself, "Damn it... the Righteous Alliance is great in every way, but the fact that they even accept demon descendants makes them just like the top ten universities?"

"These demon offspring are multiplying and unwilling to fully transform into human form, insisting on retaining their demonic forms all day long. Won't the Righteous Alliance be filled with the stench of demons in the future?"

As for the demon's strength and execution ability, the old man was equally unwilling to believe it, and he was determined to keep a close eye on the other party to prevent any problems from arising.

On the other hand, the seemingly thin and weak 007 harbored no contempt for the demon race.

"The top ten universities, junior college students, and even those of demonic lineage... all can be deadly, whether it's a punch thrown or a sum of money spent."

"I just don't know how powerful this monkey demon is."

As a follower of the God of Reporting, 007 not only has the responsibility to complete his mission this time, but also to observe the follower of the God of Fortune, 'Qi Tian,' and to measure the strength of the God of Fortune by observing the follower's abilities.

007 said, "The three of you should already know the specific plan. Half an hour after we leave port, as soon as the signal appears, we will proceed according to the plan."

Zhang Yu nodded, guessing that there were probably many such action groups from the Righteous Alliance, distributed across various campuses under the control of the Heavenly Demon University.

"I'm afraid they're targeting different individuals based on their strength, with the goal of taking action at the same time and abducting all the frozen college students."

A moment later, Zhang Yu and his three companions boarded the ship one by one, using their disguised crew identities. Immediately afterwards, the flying boat soared into the sky and sailed away from the port.

Just as Zhang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, a sharp shriek came from the air, and then the entire airship came to a stop.

Seeing another combat airship approaching, Zhang Yu wondered, "What's going on?"

After observing for a while, 007 explained, "It should be a random check of cargo, nothing serious."

"The tax rates payable for transporting different goods are obviously different."

007 explained, "It's like the same frozen goods; the tariffs for high school graduates, colonels, junior college graduates, and college students are all vastly different."

"The purpose of the spot checks is to prevent smuggling or the disguise of high-tax goods as low-tax goods."

"For example, this ship full of frozen college students today will probably be randomly checked to see if there are any frozen college students hidden on board."

As they spoke, several containers on the airship were opened, and frozen college students were poured out like bowling pins, scattering on the ground.

A staff member immediately stepped forward and began to check whether the student ID or graduation certificate hanging around the college student's neck was compliant.

On the other side, staff members were inserting test sticks into the temples of college students, watching the numbers change in front of their eyes.

Seeing this, Zhang Yu asked, puzzled, "What are they investigating this time?"

007 explained, "These days, smugglers are incredibly resourceful and audacious; some even dare to forge student IDs or graduation certificates."

"However, no matter how well it is forged, the difference in ability between college students and junior college students cannot be faked."

"This testing stick can temporarily drag the target's consciousness into a spirit world illusion to conduct an exam."

"Those who do well on the exam will naturally become university students, and those who do poorly will naturally become junior college students..."

Zhang Yu was speechless for a moment, thinking to himself that exams and scores were practically the underlying code of Kunxu, and all kinds of selection, screening, and selection of people were inseparable from them.

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief as all the randomly selected frozen people passed the tests, an alarm suddenly sounded again.

In the blink of an eye, the combat airship not far away shone brightly, and projections of the spirit world descended upon the entire airship.

Zhang Yu and the other three felt a chill run down their spines upon seeing this.

"Damn it... could this ship be smuggled?" Zhang Yu thought to himself. "We're not even that far from the campus yet. If a fight breaks out, the enemy will have too many reinforcements."

"What if we get arrested for smuggling before we even start, and our identities are exposed?"

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu and the other three became extremely nervous.

Just then, an old Taoist priest with white hair and an air of otherworldly wisdom slowly walked out.

He was the captain of the giant transport ship carrying cargo, and his title was Earth Soul True Lord.

As a Nascent Soul True Monarch of the Heavenly Demon University, Earth Soul True Monarch had never been in charge of anything related to airship transportation before.

However, as the world changed drastically, war broke out, the righteous gods disappeared, and all transportation routes were threatened. Some Nascent Soul True Monarchs had to leave their offices and laboratories to go to various places to suppress the rebellion, becoming one of the front-line forces in maintaining social order.

As the Righteous Alliance launched airstrikes against the second layer, the threat to various regions has increased significantly.

The task of transporting more than 100,000 cryogenically frozen people in one go was entrusted to the Earthly Soul True Lord.

The venerable and otherworldly True Lord arrived at the location where the alarm had sounded and chuckled, saying, "Don't be nervous, everyone, don't be nervous."

The inspector said, "My Lord, it's not that I'm not giving you face, but this college student scored 90 points in the exam in the Spirit Realm Illusion. Can this really be a college student? A college student can only score 60 points at most."

Earthly Soul True Lord stroked his beard and smiled slightly, saying, "Because he is not an ordinary college student."

With a flick of his finger, he projected the detailed information of the frozen man: "He graduated with a bachelor's degree after completing a junior college program. Although he was a junior college student, he had attended university, which is why he was able to get good grades."

"However, the tax rate for those who transfer from a junior college to a bachelor's degree program is still the same as that for junior college graduates..."

Upon realizing it was a transfer program from a junior college to a four-year university, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

"Turns out it's a transfer program from junior college to university; I thought it was smuggling."

"What a scare! What a scare! I was really scared just now."

"As for transferring from a junior college to a university, it's like having a pseudo-spiritual root in ancient times. You may work hard enough, but if you lack talent, you'll ultimately only be considered a junior college graduate..."

With the misunderstanding cleared up, the inspection continued steadily and was successfully completed. The giant airship set off again shortly afterward.

The smile on Dipo Zhenjun's face vanished completely. He coldly glanced at the goods on the ground and said to Zhang Yu and the others, "What are you still looking at? Pack the goods into boxes and put them away."

"A bunch of useless trash, the transportation time is wasted on you."

The Earthly Soul True Lord, having lost his smile, appeared extremely irritable.

In fact, he was indeed very irritable. Or rather, every time he came out of the laboratory or office to take on tasks such as freight or guarding, he would be very irritable, feeling that his time, life, and lifespan were being wasted.

Although his avatars can still work, his main body is ultimately stuck on the ship, which reduces his efficiency.

Especially now that space technology is undergoing a revolution, Di Po Zhen Jun felt increasingly frustrated, thinking about how several of his colleagues were researching cutting-edge technologies in the laboratory and riding the wave of change, while he could only transport college students.

As Zhang Yu, who resembled a monkey demon, carefully lifted each frozen person and gently loaded them into the container, the Earthly Soul True Lord's brows furrowed even more.

"Slacking off right under my nose?!"

Clearly, Zhang Yu's cautious actions could not possibly evoke any words like respect, caution, or safety in the mind of the Earthly Soul True Monarch.

In his view, such slow movements could only be a sign of laziness.

In his view, it was perfectly normal for a demon to slack off.

If the demon race weren't inherently lazy and full of cheapness, how could they have fallen so far behind the human race?

The other person's name, education, and position immediately appeared in his mind's eye. Earth Soul True Monarch cursed, "Damn it, a demon descendant with a junior college degree, it's already a huge favor to let you work on the ship, and you still dare to slack off in front of me?"

As he spoke, Earth Soul True Monarch kicked several frozen people into the container, one after another.

"You think you can earn 2 spirit coins a month? Do you even know that the money I make with a single thought is enough for you to work your whole life?"

"You're no longer allowed to work here."

Earthly Soul True Lord: "You like to be lazy, huh? Then you can stand here and do nothing but watch others do it."

Already seething with anger from the transport mission, Earth Soul True Lord seemed to have found a target to vent his frustrations on. He looked at Zhang Yu with a cold smile and said, "I've already given you a bad review and a complaint. Go back and wait to pay me back."

Thinking about how the demon he was impersonating would have to pay compensation... Zhang Yu couldn't help but explain, "I wasn't slacking off, I was just afraid of moving too fast and breaking them..."

Earth Soul True Monarch's gaze sharpened: "You dare to talk back to me?"

"Don't eat your meal later."

After saying that, he shouted to the others, "What are you all standing there for? Get to work! Load all the goods back within five minutes!"

Then the crew members around them quickly sprang into action, throwing frozen people into containers as if they were throwing frozen fish.

A moment later, as mealtime began, Zhang Yu was left standing alone, while the rest of the crew members were given their meals.

"The food on the ship is really good! They can even eat the excrement of a Nascent Soul True Monarch?"

"It's so nutritious. After eating this, I feel like I don't need to eat for a month."

"As expected of a Nascent Soul True Monarch, he's really good at pulling things up."

Seeing the crew devour their food while Zhang Yu could only stand aside and watch silently, the Earth Soul True Lord finally felt his anger subside considerably.

"Hmph, you must be starving watching this, feeling both envious and regretful, right?"

Looking at the group of college-educated crew members still scrambling for food, Earth Soul True Monarch couldn't help but laugh inwardly: "A bunch of idiots. How many Nascent Soul cultivators still need outdated digestive methods? Even if they did line up, how would it be your turn to eat?"

Earth Soul True Lord knew very well that the food these college students were eating was all excreted from the stomachs of frozen college students.

These were all things done incidentally while processing frozen college graduates. By feeding other college graduates with these other college graduates, the company can save a sum of money on food expenses each year.

The way the crew members were eating and drinking so well was, in the eyes of the Earthly Soul True Lord, a completely foolish act.

"That's it...they all have to thank me."

In the eyes of the Earthly True Lord, all college students, and even those from lower-level schools, are utterly unnecessary. After failing the college entrance examination, they are no longer worthy of being called human beings and should be sent directly to factories to be made into corpses to create value for Kunxu.

If it weren't for the existence of these college and junior college students, who added traffic to the Righteous Alliance and increased the fortune of those financial parasites, how could the battle have evolved into what it is today?

Earth Soul True Monarch thought to himself, "Fortunately, the new school leaders are wise and have already begun the plan to eliminate junior colleges, unlike the older generation who were indecisive and missed out on a lot of profit growth opportunities."

Earth Soul True Monarch had always felt that the older generation of Heavenly Demons were too conservative and lacked vitality, which was why they had always lagged behind the University of Ten Thousand Laws and failed to demonstrate the true potential of the various technologies of the Heavenly Demon University.

Just then, an invisible wave swept over Earth Soul True Monarch, and over the bodies, physical remains, and magical artifacts of everyone present.

Immediately afterwards, everyone discovered that their connection to the spirit world had been severed.

This was the signal that the Righteous Alliance and Zhang Yu and his three companions had agreed upon.

"Um?"

Earth Soul True Monarch paused slightly, and the next moment he felt four auras soaring into the sky, with waves of Nascent Soul pressure sweeping over him.

"A wild Nascent Soul cultivator from the Righteous Alliance?"

Seeing this, Earth Soul True Monarch showed no panic. Instead, he sneered and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes: "Four mere lads dare to come to my death? Then I'll take you in."

Based on the experience circulating on the battlefield, it would take at least 5 to 10 uncertified Nascent Soul cultivators from the Righteous Alliance to be comparable to one elite Nascent Soul cultivator from one of the top ten universities.

As someone from the Heavenly Demon University who had already reached the Nascent Soul realm before the great changes in the world, Earth Soul True Monarch believed himself to be far above that standard.

With a deafening roar, the Nascent Soul of the Earthly Soul True Monarch struck Zhang Yu with a powerful blow.

The military-grade technique "Heavenly Demon Reconstruction Method" was suddenly activated, aiming to completely pulverize the opponent's flesh and blood by thoroughly destroying the material structure.

But the next moment, to the astonishment of the Earthly Soul True Lord, the monkey demon before him was completely unharmed. Instead, it bared its teeth and charged towards him.
