Chapter 690: The Spirit World is in Turmoil, All Schools Are Shocked (Leader of the Alliance)
Surrounded by green divine light, Zhang Yu was carried up into the sky by the Green Wood God.
In an instant, the entire void appeared in front of him. He could see a large amount of flowing light coming and going, flowing in and out of the fortresses, strongholds, and towns surrounding the void, as if forming a prosperous ring-shaped city.
Batches of monks and supplies were continuously thrown into the battlefield like ants moving house.
Looking towards the distant third layer of land along the horizon, one can see flashes of fire and explosions rising into the sky from time to time, telling the story of the brutality of the war on the front lines.
Immediately afterward, a flash of divine light appeared, and Zhang Yu saw the ground beneath his feet rapidly receding as Qingmu Divine Lord carried him swiftly towards the front lines.
At the same time, Zhang Yu heard the voice of the Azure Wood God.
"The struggle on the magnetic pole side is too intense. If we take the Boundary-Breaking Cone there directly, there's a chance that a Nascent Soul cultivator will take action on the spot and try to forcibly inspect the Boundary-Breaking Cone."
"At that time, even with my and the magnetic poles' protection, the truth about the Boundary-Breaking Cone may be exposed."
"So I simply won't take you to the magnetic pole, but instead we'll go to the battlefield to verify the methods of the Boundary-Breaking Cone, thus relieving the pressure on the magnetic pole side."
Zhang Yu nodded upon hearing this, and then said, "Teacher, actually, since I broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, I have gained a new understanding of spatial technology, and I even tried to complete a design blueprint for a magic weapon."
Looking at the design drawings sent by Zhang Yu, Qingmu Shenjun's eyes lit up: "Oh? Good, with this magic weapon you designed, plus the confirmation of the Boundary-Breaking Cone, it will be much easier to talk to the other nine schools' Nascent Soul cultivators."
Zhang Yu continued, "Teacher, why don't I also let my main body enter the Boundary-Breaking Cone?"
Qingmu Shenjun said, "Do you know... that we might have to face off against a Nascent Soul cultivator later?"
Zhang Yu said, "Master, I am not afraid. The effect will be better if I and the Nascent Soul circulate our energy together. It will also be less likely to be exposed if we hide together in the Boundary-Breaking Cone."
Aoki nods without refusing and says directly, "Alright, since you're willing to take the risk, I won't be coy. In short, as long as I'm here, I will never let anything happen to you unless I die."
As the master and disciple were talking, Aoki Shinjun's actions had already attracted the attention of many people.
Anzhen Shenjun from Wanfa University contacted them immediately, asking, "Qingmu, what are you going to do?"
Lord Aoki laughed and said, "I'm going to provide support for the front lines."
At the same time, Aoki explained to Zhang Yu, "Don't reveal that we're going to use the Boundary-Breaking Cone for now, so as not to cause any unforeseen complications."
Upon hearing Qingmu Shenjun's reply, Anzhen Shenjun frowned and said, "Qingmu, the principals are currently in a meeting discussing important matters. At this critical juncture, you should not act rashly and start a war lightly, lest you cause unnecessary losses."
Lord Aoki smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, Anzhen, I'll be right back. Nothing will happen."
If it were the strong-willed, self-willed Qiyun God, Qingming God, or Ciji God who spoke like this, Anzhen God wouldn't be surprised and would simply continue to persuade them.
But upon hearing Qingmu Shenjun's (who was usually serious, responsible, and receptive to advice) response, Anzhen Shenjun couldn't help but frown: "Qingmu, the bigger picture is important. Don't be petty. Come back here immediately."
Upon hearing Anzhen Shenjun's warning, Qingmu Shenjun's face immediately turned cold, and he said indifferently, "Anzhen, I know what I'm doing in this matter, and it's none of your business."
Anzhen Divine Lord retorted angrily, "Sense of proportion? What sense of proportion do you have? Don't you know your own strength? If the enemy's Nascent Soul cultivators all come out and trap you in their formation, won't we be the ones rescuing you then?"
Will you compensate for any expenses or losses incurred during this period?
Before Anzhen Shenjun could finish speaking, he discovered that Qingmu Shenjun had hung up the call.
"Um?"
Upon seeing the call end, Lord Anzhen was first slightly taken aback, then flew into a rage.
How long has it been since someone hung up on him like that? Especially since the other party was Lord Aoki, a god who was far weaker than Lord Anzhen in his eyes.
"Qingmu! If it weren't for the great changes in the world and the boost from the magnetic poles, would you even be worthy of ascending to the Godhood realm and joining the ranks of us?"
Layering, grading, ranking... these are everywhere in Kunxu. Even among those who have reached the Nascent Soul stage, there are naturally differences in strength and status.
In Anzhen Shenjun's judgment, among the five Nascent Soul cultivators of Wanfa University, the magnetic pole ranks first.
He and Qiyun Shenjun are currently ranked second, neck and neck, both being among the top two Nascent Soul cultivators in all laws.
Although Qingming was originally the strongest Nascent Soul cultivator, he ranked fourth because he reached the Deity Transformation stage late and the school did not provide him with resources.
Aoki was the last one, coming in last place.
As the weakest of all gods, Aoki God-King should listen to them and follow their arrangements, in Anzhen's view. How could he act on his own?
Immediately, Anzhen God Lord contacted Qiyun God Lord.
"Lord Qiyun, are you aware of Qingmu's situation? We cannot let him act recklessly, disrupt the battle, and cause unnecessary losses to the school."
When Qiyun Shenjun learned of this, he was quite surprised. As Qingmu Shenjun's former superior, he believed he knew the other party's personality very well.
"Aoki shouldn't be the type to act recklessly."
He immediately contacted the other party: "Old Gao, you come back right now, do you hear me?"
"Gao Chongguang, reply to me immediately upon receiving this."
Seeing that Lord Qingmu had not responded for a long time, Lord Qiyun's expression also turned slightly ugly.
A moment later, two beams of divine light shot into the sky, chasing after the Azure Wood God and attempting to intercept him.
...
At the same time, Lord Aoki tore through the air like a meteor, creating waves of energy, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived above an enemy fortress.
“So fast!”
Feeling the speed at which he had traveled, Zhang Yu was startled. He realized that under the infusion of the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power of the Azure Wood Divine Lord, his flight speed was unparalleled.
Aoki God's voice rang in Zhang Yu's ears: "I'll teach you a trick today. The first rule on the battlefield is to run fast."
"Our Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power contains the mysteries of the movement of stars, and the movement of stars is the fastest in the world."
"Now that you have broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, you will be able to comprehend the power of the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Force when you reach level 40."
"It's a pity that your generation can no longer see the myriad stars, otherwise it would be easier to comprehend them."
Meanwhile, the enemy, who had detected Aoki Shinjun's movements long ago, were also well-prepared.
A beam of divine light shot into the sky, radiating the pressure of a Nascent Soul level being.
This Nascent Soul cultivator from the Righteous Alliance is named Baotong Divine Lord. He was originally a Nascent Soul True Lord and the son of a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Finance Department of the Netherworld University. After the great changes in the world, he rebelled with the Kunlun Society and completed his breakthrough to Nascent Soul.
When Lord Baotong was still at Netherworld University, he was already a well-known genius investor. He was known for his words and his actions. Every time he said, "Dad, I want this," he could complete an investment with extremely high returns.
But this financial genius, a prodigy with an almost 100% investment success rate since his debut, suffered a major loss due to the oppression of the sect.
Even today, Baotong Shenjun still remembers the scene when his valuable assets were forcibly acquired by an old dog sent by a sect disciple.
On that very day, Baotong Shenjun truly felt the suppression and persecution that the sect was inflicting on lower-level geniuses like them.
This also became one of the reasons why he later followed his father and the Kunlun Society in their defection.
"Kunxu has no freedom of investment and no financial freedom."
In order to build a truly free world, Baotong Shenjun followed the Righteous Alliance in their battles. With the fall of the 5th and 4th floors, his value increased more than tenfold, and his cultivation level also improved greatly.
Now, they have become the mainstay in resisting the top ten universities on the front lines.
When he first learned that a Nascent Soul cultivator was attacking, Lord Baotong was still solemn and on high alert. In the blink of an eye, he had already sent out requests for help to more than ten Nascent Soul cultivators.
But when he realized that the attacker was Aoki Shin-kun from Wanfa University, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Who do we have here... Turns out it's just some country bumpkin from the Civil Engineering department?"
Although Fu Xiantian, the leader of the Righteous Alliance, stipulated that the alliance must not discriminate based on profession or race at the request of his immortal disciple.
But for a veteran in finance like Baotong Shenjun, the contempt and discrimination against civil engineering is almost ingrained in his bones.
"Hmph, if it were a few years ago, someone like Aoki... would have had to wait in line to give me money."
Moreover, in his eyes, Qingmu Shenjun's strength was indeed far inferior to his own; he was merely a being who had advanced to the Divine Transformation realm through the support of the magnetic pole.
At the same time, Lord Baotong had received messages from the other Lords of the Righteous Alliance, and he immediately replied: "Don't worry, everyone. I alone am enough to deal with the mere Green Wood."
As he spoke, he deliberately started a live stream of the Dark Spirit Realm, intending to teach the enemy a lesson while also accumulating some good fortune for himself.
Just as Baotong Divine Lord was making a series of quick reactions, Qingmu Divine Lord had already descended with layers of azure divine light.
With a low shout, Qingmu unleashed a terrifying earth-shattering gravitational force centered on his body, causing the earth to tremble and the nearby mountains to collapse layer by layer.
However, the fortress, enveloped by layers of spatial barriers, remained completely unharmed, as if it were in another dimension, unaffected by the earthquake or the collapse of mountains.
Qingmu Shenjun looked at the Boundary-Breaking Cone in his hand and asked, "Zhang Yu, can you break it?"
The Boundary-Breaking Cone trembled slightly, and Zhang Yu said, "No problem."
Lord Aoki: "Alright, then today we, master and disciple, will break the formation together."
Just then, Baotong Divine Lord shouted from afar, "Qingmu, with me here today, I will not tolerate your Wanfa University's insolence."
After saying this, the Baotong Divine Lord's body shone brightly, and hundreds of magical treasures soared into the sky, bursting forth with various colors of light and energy, and strangling towards the Qingmu Divine Lord.
After the plundering of the 5th and 4th floors, especially the harvesting of the assets left behind by the Nascent Soul cultivators from various schools, Baotong Shenjun's net worth skyrocketed, and the number of magic treasures in his possession far exceeded that of the past.
This was merely a casual test, yet the commotion caused by the hundreds of magical treasures was earth-shattering, as if mountains were being moved and seas were being burned.
Faced with Baotong Shenjun's attack, Qingmu Shenjun remained silent, but instead, amidst the opponent's astonished gaze, he unleashed a Boundary-Breaking Cone.
"This is..." Bao Tong Shenjun's gaze sharpened, and he instantly realized: "It's that magic weapon from the Magnetic Pole?"
The next moment, a flash of green light appeared, and Qingmu Shenjun, as if he had become one with the treasure, pierced through the layers of attacks like a shooting star and rushed to the front of the Righteous Alliance's fortress at great speed.
With a loud crack, the space shattered like glass, and the meteor that Qingmu Shenjun had transformed into broke through the spatial blockade. Then, the Earthly Fiend Gravity reversed, tearing the entire fortress to shreds.
"Aoki!" Seeing a large amount of assets evaporate in an instant, Baotong Divine Lord was furious and raised his hand to launch a series of attacks, but Aoki blocked them all.
In the clash of forces, Baotong Shenjun could feel that most of his attacks were deflected by the Earthly Fiend's gravitational pull, but a small portion of his attacks seemed to vanish suddenly, disappearing without a trace.
Baotong Divine Lord's gaze sharpened, and he instantly understood that this must be the effect of the Boundary-Breaking Cone. His anger was immediately replaced by greed.
"Such a treasure, wouldn't it be a waste if it fell into Aoki's hands?"
Seeing that Lord Qingmu turned and retreated, Lord Baotong immediately gave chase, wanting to capture him and seize the magic weapon.
Aoki no God showed no interest in continuing the fight and had no intention of fighting Treasure God any further.
The two walked one after the other, and wherever they went, the sky and earth seemed to collapse and crack.
Hours later, numerous related reports appeared in the spirit world.
On this day, Lord Qingmu charged straight into the enemy ranks with the Boundary-Breaking Cone, breaking through seven strongholds that were enveloped by spatial barriers on his own. He evaded the pursuit of four Nascent Soul cultivators and finally returned safely under the cover of several Lords, including Qiyun and Anzhen.
The spirit world was in an uproar, and schools were shaken.
