Why Cultivate Immortality When You're Broke?

Old Man: "Do you wish for revenge?"

Young Man: "I was humiliated repeatedly by the strong, treated as worthless trash by my master. How could I not want revenge?"

Chapter 700 Protecting Our Zhuyi (Thanks to "xiaodao1905" for the generous donation)

Kunxu has three levels.

On a large battlefield not far from the Great Hollow.

The strongest member of the Security faction, once known as the most honest Nascent Soul cultivator, is now known as the Butcher of Ten Thousand Laws, the Heavenly Slaughter True Monarch, who is currently fighting against many Nascent Soul True Monarchs from the Righteous Alliance.

At the most intense and agonizing moment of the battle, a message from the Magnetic God suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"The principal wanted to see me?"

True Lord Tian Sha knew that Magnetic God was fighting against the enemy's Nascent Soul cultivator, and at such a critical moment, the principal actually sent him a message, so there must be something important going on.

So he fought and retreated, quickly checking the contents of the message that had been sent.

"Let me...protect Zhang Yu?"

Upon seeing this message, the Heavenly Slaughter True Monarch was slightly taken aback, then sighed inwardly, "It's pitiful that news from the front lines asks not about the battle, but about the disciples. I, the strongest member of the Security Department, suppressing the rebels in the midst of a fierce battle, am being called upon to protect a school bully..."

"Does constantly calling us 'security department' really mean they treat us like security guards?"

"I always said we should change the department name to the War Department."

Looking at the fierce battle line before him, True Monarch Tian Sha thought to himself, "No, I can't just retreat like this. What will happen to the battle here? If I don't kill my fill, what will happen to all the manpower and resources I've invested? How will I account for the lost mana, magic treasures, and magical remains?"

"Just pretend you didn't see the message..."

With a flash, the Heavenly Slaughter True Lord charged back into the formation, unleashing a storm of blood and gore.

But at that moment, another message came from the magnetic poles.

However, when the third, fourth... and even the sixth message arrived, True Lord Tian Sha knew he could no longer pretend he hadn't seen it.

With a long sigh, the Heavenly Slaughter True Monarch retreated while watching his opponents getting further and further away, and he felt as if he could see spirit coins escaping from his pocket.

At the same time, he saw that, in addition to himself, many more Nascent Soul True Monarchs were withdrawing from the battlefield, and the entire battle line began to retreat.

Looking at the miraculous healers from the medical department not far away, Heavenly Slaughter Healer couldn't help but ask, "Are you also going to protect...?"

The Master of Miraculous Hands said calmly, "Go protect Zhang Yu."

The two exchanged a glance, a hint of helplessness flashing through their hearts.

The Master of Miraculous Hands said, "The headmaster is a bit... too indulgent towards his disciples."

The Heavenly Killer True Lord's words were even more direct: "Indulging in favoritism and flattery is the beginning of a school's downfall."

The Master of Miraculous Hands' expression changed drastically, and he waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "Don't talk nonsense."

The Heavenly Slaughter True Monarch snorted coldly, thinking to himself, "How much of the resources of the Ten Thousand Laws have Zhang Yu consumed? The resources of the Ten Schools? Do I need to tell you? The key is that it has been so long, and all I've heard about is him trying to break through to the Nascent Soul stage and improve his power, but I haven't heard of him having any achievements in immortal sect techniques."

In fact, the Heavenly Killing True Monarch had inquired about Zhang Yu's situation and had never heard of him spending time cultivating immortal sect techniques, nor had he seen him researching space technology. He had only spent a lot of effort and resources to advance his cultivation.

Besides, it's impossible for Heavenly Killing True Lord not to be dissatisfied with Qingming True Lord taking away the Divine Transformation Certificate.

Especially after hearing that Qingming Zhenjun had obtained the Divine Transformation Certificate, Zhang Yu spoke many good words for Qingming Zhenjun.

This made Tian Sha Zhenjun feel even more that his spirit coins had been wasted.

Meanwhile, the Master of Miraculous Hands thought to himself, "That old codger, Tian Sha, is getting more and more arrogant lately. Is it because he suppressed himself for too long and now that he's gained power, he can't control his temper? Or is it because he's killed too many people, and his killing techniques are having an increasingly significant impact on his mind?"

"However, the magnetic pole approach is indeed a bit excessive. That's not how a principal should act. Zhang Yu's behavior lately has also been rather unseemly..."

As they continued their journey, Heavenly Killing True Lord and Miraculous Hand True Lord saw a total of sixteen Nascent Soul True Lords heading towards the direction of Zhang Yu's support.

Seeing this, the Heavenly Slaughter True Monarch grew increasingly dissatisfied: "Is it really necessary? Does protecting Zhang Yu require mobilizing so many of our people?"

At the same time, the live footage was also broadcast over and appeared in front of Tian Sha Zhenjun, allowing him to understand the situation in advance.

Then Heavenly Killer True Lord discovered that the entire building at the target location was already enveloped by a spatial barrier.

Meanwhile, the building beneath the spatial barrier was gradually collapsing, and three Nascent Soul experts were besieging and killing Zhang Yu.

The Heavenly Slaughter True Monarch's gaze swept over the three Nascent Soul experts. With his rich combat experience, he had already discerned their true strengths and weaknesses, and even devised a battle strategy.

"The Burning Dao Loan Life Scripture, this Liu Jin is a traitor from the former Finance Department of Netherworld University. His Nascent Soul has entered the infant state, which is the moment when his explosive power is strongest. We can't fight this kind of guy head-on. The best way to deal with him is to delay and wait for him to burn out."

"The Sutra of Blissful Unity, is he a traitor from the Joyful Union University? With him present, my magical power is rapidly draining away, so it won't be easy to delay any longer. This guy's Sutra of Blissful Unity and the Sutra of Burning the Dao and Lending Life are a perfect match..."

When the gaze of the Heavenly Killing True Lord fell upon the Taihao True Lord, and he saw the Taihao True Lord kneeling, a chill ran down his spine, and he saw through the other party's disguise at a glance.

"The wondrous scripture of changing lineages and ancestors... Is this guy Taihao?"

"Such a smooth, skillful, and solemn kneeling posture—he's the only one in the Righteous Alliance with such cultivation in the 'Mysterious Scripture of Transferring Ancestors'."

As for Taihao Zhenjun, this traitor from the Finance Department of Youming University, Tiansha Zhenjun had indeed clashed with him before.

In his heart, Taihao Zhenjun was one of the opponents he least wanted to encounter.

After all, even if someone seriously injures you or destroys your magical artifacts or physical remains, you can always recover by spending money.

But being forced to kneel before Taihao Zhenjun is something that will disgust you for a lifetime, to the point that one of the two of you will die.

However, the speed at which Taihao Zhenjun knelt was astonishing. It was said that once Taihao knelt, his attack would never miss, making it virtually impossible to defend against.

Heavenly Killing True Lord certainly understood that it wasn't just that Taihao True Lord knelt quickly enough, but also that he only knelt to those he was confident he could kneel to, which indirectly showed that his judgment was very accurate.

"Zhang Yu... can he withstand one kneel from him?"

The Heavenly Slaughter True Lord sighed, "I'm afraid we can't stop him... He's going to become the adoptive father of the Great Hao True Lord..."

At this moment, the Heavenly Killing True Monarch seemed to have already seen the scene of Zhang Yu being completely suppressed by the three Nascent Soul cultivators after kneeling in Taihao.

At this moment, the Heavenly Slaughter True Monarch was still some distance from his target location.

With a shout, Master Miaoshou urged, accelerating once more: "Heavens, we absolutely cannot let these three get away."

True Monarch Tiansha nodded. Although he was dissatisfied with Magnetism's pampering of his disciple, he also understood that if Zhang Yu were severely injured or even killed by these three Nascent Soul cultivators, and they let the three escape, it would probably cause great dissatisfaction from Divine Monarch Magnetism.

Just as Tian Sha Zhenjun and the others accelerated again and again, they saw that wherever Zhang Yu's palms passed, beams of light began to distort.

Seeing this, the Heavenly Slaughter True Monarch's gaze suddenly sharpened, and he thought to himself, "Spatial distortion?"

"Could this be... the immortal sect's technique, Kunlun in the Palm?"

Under the watchful gaze of the Heavenly Slaughter True Monarch, Zhang Yu, who was at the center of the battlefield, seemed to have become the commander of the entire battlefield. Under the siege of the three Nascent Soul experts, he constantly distorted space and used the force of the enemy to fight back. He was like a reef in the center of a storm, standing firm no matter how the wind and rain blew.

Heavenly Slaughter True Monarch exclaimed in surprise, "He has actually cultivated the Kunlun Palm Technique to such a level?"

The Master of Miraculous Hands, standing to the side, also said in surprise, "Scaling space, changing direction, changing position, using the opponent's force against them... Any attack that wants to hit him requires a wide range of attacks, and a wide range of attacks will inevitably reduce the power, but he himself has amazing resistance to blows."

The Heavenly Slaughter True Monarch then analyzed, "It's even worse when multiple people attack each other. Their attacks will affect each other due to the spatial tension, and may even cancel each other out."

He judged, "With his protective techniques and the ability to stretch space and use the Kunlun in his palm to strike back, Zhang Yu is most adept at facing, and least afraid of... being surrounded by multiple people."

In addition, a shocking guess emerged in the mind of the Heavenly Killing True Monarch.

"When did Zhang Yu cultivate the Kunlun Palm Technique to this level? The skill and precision in his moves, as well as his mastery of scaling and distorting space... it's as if he's cultivated for many years."

"Who exactly is spreading rumors that he hasn't studied the Kunlun Palm Technique or space technology?"

Just as Tian Sha Zhenjun was about to arrive at the building, he could see that the space barrier was already surrounded by many Nascent Soul Zhenjuns, indicating that the Magnetic Extreme God had summoned more than just their group.

Just then, the three Nascent Soul cultivators inside the spatial barrier made a move to run away, but Zhang Yu actually took out the Boundary-Breaking Cone directly from the Void Cloud Treasury.

Seeing this, the Master of Miraculous Hands exclaimed in surprise, "The Principal gave the Boundary-Breaking Cone to Zhang Yu as well?"

The Heavenly Killing True Lord, standing to the side, was not too shocked, but felt that he understood the actions of the Magnetic Extreme God Lord.

“Zhang Yu… his mastery of Kunlun in his palm, his mastery of space technology… probably exceeds everyone’s expectations.”

The Heavenly Killing True Monarch thought to himself, "The achievements of the Magnetic Extreme God Monarch in spatial technology, as well as the technology contained in the Great Void Cloud Treasury, are probably inseparable from Zhang Yu's support."

At this moment, the Heavenly Killing True Monarch deeply understood why the Magnetic Pole was taking such good care of Zhang Yu. This was not just spoiling his disciple; it was clearly taking care of an important asset of the school.

At the same time, the spatial barrier had already been blasted open with a large hole by the Boundary-Breaking Cone in Zhang Yu's hand.

With a sinister grin, Tian Sha Zhenjun and the surrounding Nascent Soul Zhenjun, like hungry tigers released from their cages, were about to squeeze in and hunt down Taihao Zhenjun and his two companions.

But just as Zhang Yu took out the Boundary-Breaking Cone, the three of them, including Taihao Zhenjun, had already made their decision.

"Any resistance is pointless; on the contrary, we will be captured alive and suffer a fate worse than death."

Taihao Zhenjun said, "Gentlemen, let's go."

Huanxue Zhenjun sighed and said, "We've suffered a huge loss this time."

Seeing Huan Yue Zhenjun's body explode in a loud crash, Liu Jin Zhenjun's eyes flashed with resentment: "Why? Why did I lose like this?!"

"Do I still have a chance to be resurrected? Is there anyone willing to lend me money?"

Thinking of the enormous debt he would incur if he were to be resurrected again, and that he might not even have the chance to be resurrected with the debt, but only as a soul cultivator... True Monarch Liujin felt a wave of despair.

But he knew he had no time to hesitate.

With a powerful roar, True Lord Liujin detonated his own body.

At the same time, Taihao Zhenjun on the other side had also been shattered into pieces.

The moment the Boundary-Breaking Cone was activated, the bodies of the three True Monarchs Taihao and Taihao were shattered one after another, directly self-destructing and committing suicide, leaving no chance for the enemy to capture them alive.

As the three figures disappeared, only the faint voice of True Lord Taihao remained.

"Godfather, see you next time... at the memorial service."

Zhang Yu frowned, thinking to himself, "This guy is really unlucky."

The next moment, Heavenly Killing True Monarch and the others had completely surrounded Zhang Yu.

"Protect True Monarch Zhuyi!" True Monarch Tiansha shouted, stepping in front of Zhang Yu as the first to do so. At the same time, his nascent soul flew out and patrolled the entire area, setting up a state of alert, though it was unclear what he was guarding against.
