Chapter 630: A Great Change Unprecedented in Ten Thousand Years
Kuang Tianqing glanced at Li Shiwei coldly and said indifferently: "Dao Qiankun's death has nothing to do with me."
"Compared to beating him to death offstage, I'm more looking forward to beating this defeated opponent to death in this big competition."
Li Shiwei shouted, "But you were the last person to meet Dao Qiankun that night!"
Kuang Tianqing flicked his fingertips and said nonchalantly, "What I did and said when I went to see Dao Qiankun, I have already told the inspection team, and they have confirmed that it has nothing to do with Dao Qiankun's death."
"If anyone is dissatisfied, please speak to your school's leaders."
After that, Kuang Tianqing urged, "Hey? Can the auction continue?"
Just as Dao Qiankun's body was being auctioned, a projection suddenly appeared at the scene and stopped the funeral.
"I'm sorry everyone, I've personally purchased all of Dao Qiankun's corpses. I hope you'll give me some face and not continue to participate in today's auction."
Someone at the scene immediately recognized the person in the projection as Dao Shuyi, Dao Qiankun's senior master. Although he was only a True Lord of the Nascent Soul, he was of the same generation as the Lord of Tianyan, and was the real power in the leading giant enterprise, Wandao Group.
Following Dao Shuyi's words, ninety-nine percent of the people present gave up their plans to continue participating in the auction.
After Dao Shuyi's bidding, the rest of the people also stopped bidding.
Before leaving, Zhang Yu came to Dao Qiankun's body, looked at the smile on his face, and thought to himself, "You talked about changing the world and remaining useful...but in the end you died first."
"Not only can I not change the world, I can't even be a soul cultivator."
Just when Zhang Yu was feeling emotional, he saw a line of words on the other party's chest light up slightly. It was the four words "descendants of immortals".
Ye Xingli, who was standing by, saw Zhang Yu in a daze and asked in confusion, "Junior brother?"
Zhang Yu immediately collected his thoughts and thought to himself, "Is it possible to see the Dao Seed? But... isn't Brother Dao dead?"
"Could it be that Brother Dao is not dead?"
Zhang Yu looked at Dao Qiankun, whose face was rosy and looked like he would open his eyes at any moment. The other party's words seemed to echo clearly in his ears again.
"You can also escape behind me. I will do my best to protect you."
…
At this moment, Zhang Yu felt a sense of curiosity in his heart, a curiosity that he himself felt was absurd, random, and childish. He was curious about what would happen if he hid behind Dao Ge now?
However, looking at the crowd around him and the wall that Dao Ge was leaning against, Zhang Yu knew that even if he wanted to do so, he had no chance at the moment.
"And how could Brother Dao not be dead... His condition must have been examined by the Divine Lord Huashen. If he said he was dead, then he must be dead."
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Instead of doubting that Dao Ge is not dead, why not...does the Dao Seed Genealogy say that it must be a living person?"
"Or some Dao seeds, such as this descendant of an immortal, can even be dead?"
Zhang Yu didn't know whether his guess was right or not. He just looked at Dao Qiankun's corpse in front of him and felt reluctant to leave.
At this moment, a voice came: "Are you Zhang Yu?"
Zhang Yu turned his head and immediately saw Dao Shuyi's projection.
Dao Shu looked at the reluctance in Zhang Yu's eyes and said, "I've heard of you."
"For the next period of time, I will temporarily store Dao Qiankun's body on his flying boat. If you want, you can go and keep him company."
Zhang Yu was surprised: "Huh?"
Dao Shuyi said casually, "I've heard that you're a man of character, with the demeanor of a cultivator from the past. And my nephew also behaves in a very ancient way. If he knew that his friends would come to pay their respects after his death, he would probably be happier."
Zhang Yu nodded upon hearing this and said, "Thank you, Senior Dao. I really want to spend more time with Senior Dao Qiankun."
On the way out, Ye Xingli said, "It seems that this senior Dao Shuyi is also a worshiper of the ancients. He probably reserved Dao Ge's body out of remembrance and respect, just like the ancients did, and perhaps he didn't intend to profit from it."
"The sect that reveres the ancients?" Zhang Yu knew that the so-called sect that reveres the ancients refers to monks whose concepts and habits still carry the shadow of ancient times, who are deeply influenced by the old times, and even advocate ancient practices in some aspects.
"This is also normal. After all, many cultivators are ancient people themselves."
"But even if we admire the ancients, it's only one aspect of our lives. It's impossible to completely emulate the ancients."
He thought to himself, "After all, in Kunxu, only rich people can join the ancient worship sect. Those without money are not qualified to worship the ancients."
Just as Zhang Yu and his friends were leaving the funeral, they saw Kuang Tianqing walking outside and being interviewed.
A reporter asked Kuang Tianqing, "Mr. Kuang, what do you think about Dao Qiankun's suicide?"
Kuang Tianqing said calmly: "I feel sorry for him. He was not able to witness the arrival of the new era with his own eyes."
The reporter's eyes lit up, as if sensing the scent of big news, and immediately asked, "What do you mean by the new era?"
Kuang Tianqing smiled proudly and said, "After winning the first place in this year's top ten leagues, I will choose the "Eternal Spring Sutra" from the immortal sect's skills."
"The effect of this technique is to increase your lifespan by ten thousand years."
"I will devote all my energy to studying this technique and developing a cheaper longevity technology."
"It won't be long before all cultivators below the 10th level will be able to increase their lifespan by at least 300 years."
"Everyone can have more time to make money, more time to practice, and more opportunities to sprint towards the immortal path..."
Kuang Tianqing's words quickly penetrated the spiritual world like a thunderclap, even directly overwhelming the news of Dao Qiankun's death and all the voices in the university community, triggering countless public opinions and discussions.
When Ye Xingli heard what Kuang Tianqing said, his eyes fixed on her and she said, "Without Dao Ge and Kuang Tianqing's confrontation, the success rate of the Four Demon Schools' plan has indeed increased significantly."
"If they really manage to obtain the method to increase longevity, then the university world will likely usher in a major change that has not been seen in a thousand years, or even ten thousand years."
At the same time, Kuang Tianqing, who was still being interviewed, suddenly turned around and smiled at Zhang Yu.
The message sent by the other party also appeared in Zhang Yu's eyes.
Kuang Tianqing: Dao Qiankun is dead. No one will protect you in the next competition.
Kuang Tianqing: If I were you, I would seize the time to practice and spend less time on useless things like today.
Kuang Tianqing: At least if you do this, you can bring me more fun in the future
Zhang Yu: I ran like crazy twice. Next time you see me not running, come and tell me this.
Kuang Tianqing laughed, and his eyes looking at Zhang Yu became more and more meaningful, and he replied: Zhang Yu, as a prey, you are becoming more and more attractive now.
Feeling the undisguised malice in Kuang Tianqing's eyes, Zhang Yu ignored him.
Zhang Yu knew that the other party was right in one point. He should really seize the time to practice now.
Without knowing when the top ten leagues would resume, every extra day of practice might mean limited progress for others, but for him who was practicing "The Demon Saint's Ever-changing Nerves", it was a huge improvement every day.
…
Demon Saint's Myriad Changes Nerve Level 12 (5/120)
That evening, shortly after Zhang Yu pushed the Demon Saint's Wanbian Nerve to level 12, new notice regarding the Top Ten Leagues arrived.
"Will the finals continue tomorrow?"
Zhang Yu glanced at the various chat records in the group. A large amount of information appeared in front of him, and a hint of thought flashed in his eyes.
"According to many people, the four schools of Wanfa have been requesting a further postponement so that they can select a new candidate to replace Dao Qiankun."
"The four schools of the Heavenly Demon Sect requested that the competition continue and that one student be selected from the eliminated students to advance."
"But in the end, the Heavenly Court suppressed all disputes and ordered the Ten Major Leagues to continue."
At this moment, Director Gao's communication request appeared in Zhang Yu's eyes again.
Director Gao: "Zhang Yu, I've heard everything. Are you okay? The upcoming matches will probably get increasingly dangerous. You must be careful."
At this point, Director Gao's face was filled with solemnity. "Recently... on the 666th floor, a huge amount of supplies are coming in and out every day, a large amount of which is various foods and nutrients."
"Zhang Yu, your area may be the center of the storm next, so be careful."
Zhang Yu's heart moved. He remembered that the 666th floor was where the body of Vice Principal Wanfa and Lord Wanhua was stored.
Once, Zhang Yu followed the True Lord of Magnetic Pole to meet the Lord of All Changes there.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "They've started taking large-scale orders over there? Does this mean Wanhua Divine Lord is about to take action?"
Director Gao continued, "I originally wanted to ask Master Ciji about the situation, but she suddenly went into seclusion to refine her weapon and cut off all external contact."
Director Gao said in a deep voice, "She may not be able to help you with anything that happens next."
"If you..."
At this point, Director Gao said with some reluctance and helplessness: "If you encounter any trouble, go find that woman."
Zhang Yu asked doubtfully, "That woman?"
"Bai Zhenzhen." Director Gao said, "Don't you have a good relationship with her?"
Zhang Yu looked at Director Gao with some surprise. He still remembered that Director Gao had always been against his close relationship with Bai Zhenzhen.
At this moment, Director Gao said, "If you encounter any problems that you can't solve over there, go find her."
"Her master is the Seven Emotions God after all, so he must have some abilities."
…
The next morning.
All 30 contestants participating in the finals came to the scene.
Dao Qiankun's vacant position was filled by the contestants from the second relay race, and finally the strongest player from the 7th ranked team was found, who was Mu Qiansi from Hehuan University.
At this moment, as ten rays of divine light lit up one after another, the content and rules of the final competition emerged in the sky.
