You dare to cultivate without money?!-Chapter 319 - 270: Heading to Kunxu Second Floor

A few days later.

Inside the hospital.

Zhang Yu abruptly sat up from the hospital bed, then looked somewhat bewildered at the impeccably clean ward in front of him.

Beside the bed, the voice of Master Xinghuo came over: "I thought you’d wake up around today, and it turns out you did, even a bit earlier than I expected."

Zhang Yu sharply turned his head, looking at Master Xinghuo beside him, murmuring, "I..."

The next moment, he rubbed his head, feeling a sharp pain in his brain.

"Hiss..." Countless scenes flashed in Zhang Yu’s mind as he gradually recalled what had happened.

"An explosion... then the building suddenly collapsed."

"I wanted to jump to the adjacent building through the window, but someone knocked me back..."

Then an overwhelming amount of building materials crashed down on him.

Zhang Yu remembered that he relied on Formless Cloud Gang and Nine Heavens Cloud Sky Force to desperately resist. Ultimately, after being buried, he actively entered the pseudo-death state of Spring and Autumn Endless Zen and strived to maintain the Can Niu Soul Heart Technique.

He didn’t think of anything or reflect on anything, merely sustaining the growth of flesh in a dark consciousness world.

The next moment, Zhang Yu reacted abruptly: "Where’s Azhen? How is Azhen?"

Master Xinghuo looked at Zhang Yu with a somewhat complicated gaze and said, "Don’t worry, she’s fine."

Zhang Yu finally exhaled a sigh of relief, saying, "Did a True God arrive? Did they catch the person who attacked me?"

He spoke full of killing intent: "Who exactly attacked me? I want them to pay dearly, even till they die!"

Master Xinghuo said, "Two nearly old and dying Foundation Establishment cultivators. They blocked the network near the apartment building and used disguised data to temporarily make the True God think everything locally was normal."

Zhang Yu asked, "Were they caught?"

Master Xinghuo calmly said, "They killed themselves before getting caught, and all their assets were laundered clean before their suicide, clearly long prepared for the mission’s failure."

"As for the people behind them, according to the clues currently found by Deng Bingding... it might be Wang Yin of the Oasis Group."

Zhang Yu’s eyes narrowed: "Him again."

Master Xinghuo calmly said: "But this time, he crossed a taboo. Especially since you’ve arranged terms with Wanfa University, you’re the agreed upon talent. Such conduct before the college entrance exam is too vile." fгeewebnovёl.com

"Hundreds of related personnel’s physical bodies and souls have been dealt with, and the upper level of the Oasis Group also paid a large fine. In the future, Wang Yin probably won’t dare use such methods against you again."

Zhang Yu said coldly, "Will he use other means?"

Master Xinghuo said, "Normal academic competition, commercial competition, of course, no one will care."

In Master Xinghuo’s heart, however, he pondered silently, "But... is it really just Wang Yin? To go to such lengths against Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, willing to pay such a huge price?"

"Did Wang Yin also sense the potential of the two? Attempting to eliminate a major threat in advance?"

"Or did someone from Nether University, or even the Netherworld Palace... like me, perceive Zhang Yu’s extraordinary nature? Wanting to preemptively kill this future genius student of Wanfa University?"

Master Xinghuo couldn’t be sure, so he temporarily kept this speculation to himself.

After all, in a month, Zhang Yu would head to Wanfa University, and once he entered Wanfa University, there would be no need to worry about the pressure from Nether University.

As for the remaining month’s time, he decided to spend more time with Zhang Yu, both for protection and to advance Zhang Yu’s guidance while there was still time.

Just then, Zhang Yu looked at his phone and said, "Why can’t I reach Azhen’s phone?"

Master Xinghuo was silent for a moment, then finally said, "Azhen awakened her Divine Spirit Root during the battle with those two Foundation Establishment cultivators."

"It was precisely the emergence of the Divine Spirit Root that attracted the True God to arrive early."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu’s expression shifted dramatically, thinking, "Damn! Azhen usually suppresses her True Spirit Root to prevent its evolution, she must have been forced to unleash it by those two guys."

Zhang Yu anxiously looked at Master Xinghuo and asked, "What happened to Azhen afterward?"

Noticing Zhang Yu’s changing expression, Master Xinghuo guessed that the secret of Bai Zhenzhen’s Spirit Root was probably already known to Zhang Yu.

Every time he thought about it, Master Xinghuo felt a sense of wonder: "I did not expect the two disciples I mentored to continue to astonish me one after another."

"I thought Zhang Yu, with his suspected Martial Arts Saint Body constitution, was an extraordinary talent I’d rarely encounter in life."

"Yet Bai Zhenzhen turned out to be even more fearsome, with an innate evolutionary Spirit Root that has evolved into a Divine Spirit Root... her talent surpasses even Zhang Yu."

But Master Xinghuo knew now wasn’t the time to discuss this, so upon hearing Zhang Yu’s question, he answered, "She was taken away by a True God."

"But you don’t need to worry. According to Deng Bingding... Bai Zhenzhen is currently safe and has even been protected by the Seven Emotions Divine Monarch of Sky Sword University. She’s likely to become the disciple of the Seven Emotions Divine Monarch in the future."

Master Xinghuo explained: "The Seven Emotions Divine Monarch is a Divinity Transformation Sword Immortal who has been searching for a successor to the Extreme Emotion Sword Dao. It’s said that he admired Bai Zhenzhen greatly from her performance during the Foundation Establishment exam."

Zhang Yu was slightly stunned upon hearing this, thinking, "Deng Bingding seemed to have mentioned that indeed, during the initial Dao Heart test, there was a big figure who was quite satisfied with Azhen’s performance in the illusion, which is why they provided the interest-free loan, despite Azhen not being the top performer at the time."

"Could it be this same Seven Emotions Divine Monarch? This Divinity Transformation Sword Immortal... can he see the content of the Foundation Establishment exam?"

Zhang Yu also remembered that when the top ten conditions were offered, Sky Sword University provided the best admission terms for Azhen.

Master Xinghuo continued to comfort him, "Even if it’s a Divine Spirit Root, Azhen has already reached Foundation Establishment. If the Divine Spirit Root were forcibly extracted, it would be ruined. Now, being cultivated by the Divine Monarch at Sky Sword University is a blessing."

Zhang Yu nodded slightly, still feeling a bit uneasy, but he knew there was nothing he could change at this moment.

"Is she still on the first floor? Can I go see her?"

Master Xinghuo shook his head, "After the entrance exam ends, she’ll go to the second floor. But her current security level is extremely high, no one can meet her."

"But rest assured, once you’re both on the second floor and in university, there will be opportunities for you to meet."

Master Xinghuo silently sighed in his heart as he noticed Zhang Yu’s slight relief, thinking, "Although it’s said... that after Foundation Establishment, forcibly extracting a Divine Spirit Root would ruin it, it doesn’t mean there aren’t methods to refine both the person and the root into Magic Remains..."

But whether the Seven Emotions Divine Monarch will do so, Master Xinghuo is unsure, and he doesn’t want to say it out loud to add more worries for Zhang Yu.

Apart from that, he also thought of another problem.

"Sigh, I didn’t expect that I also overlooked it; Bai Zhenzhen’s aptitude actually far exceeds Zhang Yu."

"Now possessing a divine spirit root and becoming a disciple of a Divinity Transformation Divine Monarch, if the Seven Emotions Divine Monarch truly intends to cultivate her... I’m afraid once they enter university, the gap in cultivation between Bai Zhenzhen and Zhang Yu will widen rapidly, and their distance in ranking, wealth, status will also grow further apart."

Looking at Zhang Yu in front of him, Master Xinghuo thought to himself: "Even if they were best friends in high school, I’m afraid their relationship will gradually deteriorate over time."

Master Xinghuo has seen too many similar situations, but he knows that no matter what he says to Zhang Yu now, it would be of no use; everything has to be felt and slowly digested by the person involved over time.

At this moment, Zhang Yu suddenly got up from the hospital bed, twisting his body while doing the Spring and Autumn Endless Zen movements, and said, "Master, I feel much better now, can I start training directly?"

Zhang Yu’s eyes are currently filled with fighting spirit, as if burning with an endless desire for power, for cultivation.

Master Xinghuo nodded: "You do seem almost recovered, let’s go then; don’t train here and disturb other patients."

In the next month, apart from breathing in and out at the Spirit Vein, Master Xinghuo almost tirelessly guided Zhang Yu in hard cultivation day and night.

Especially feeling that insatiable hunger in Zhang Yu’s heart for the Immortal Path, for cultivation, Master Xinghuo’s guidance became increasingly diligent.

As for Yu Xinghan, he occasionally joined in, receiving together the hellish training from Master Xinghuo.

...

Meanwhile.

In a certain Spirit Vein on the first floor.

While breathing in and out, Bai Zhenzhen suddenly opened her eyes and said to Deng Bingding in front of her: "Deng Youshen, could you do me a favor and send a message to Zhang Yu?"

Deng Bingding smiled slightly: "No problem, what message would you like to send?"

Looking at Bai Zhenzhen in front of him, Deng Bingding secretly marveled: "An evolutionary spirit root, already a divine spirit root; in the future, won’t it evolve into an immortal spirit root? Wouldn’t that make her truly a sect seedling?"

"Looking at it this way, I’m afraid Zhang Yu is just a cover."

"This Bai Zhenzhen is the real talent that those above intend to cultivate, right?"

Thinking of this, Deng Bingding became even more impressed with the foresight of those above: "They hid this move too deeply; if not for Nether University’s accidental discovery this time... hmm? Could it be... Nether University has also used the incident with Wang Yin to make an excuse, and their real target is not Zhang Yu, but they actually wanted to get rid of this Bai Zhenzhen early?"

Deng Bingding couldn’t be sure, only feeling that Bai Zhenzhen in front of him was becoming more important and mysterious.

"Compared to her, Zhang Yu seems like an ordinary student."

"But their relationship seems pretty good at the moment; I should try to get along well with both sides."

...

In the training ground.

Zhang Yu lay on the ground with twisted limbs, enduring pain while straightening his dislocated limbs one by one.

Just then, a message came through the phone, sent by Deng Bingding.

"Azhen asked him to send a message for me?"

Bai Zhenzhen: Yu Zi, I’m doing well. Do your best in the college entrance exam, and once I’m up there, I’ll find a way to come to you.

Looking at his phone, Zhang Yu’s heart settled.

Master Xinghuo’s voice came: "Have you rested enough? How long are you going to lie down?"

Zhang Yu gritted his teeth, already standing up: "Let’s continue."

...

A month swiftly passed by.

With the end of the college entrance exams, Zhang Yu and his peers also completed their three years of high school.

On this day, aboard the flying boat heading to the Ascension Platform.

Zhang Yu watched Songyang City grow smaller beneath his feet, as the past three years seemed to flash continuously in his mind.

At that moment, Yu Xinghan’s palm patted his shoulder and said: "Bro, what do you think about joining Sky Sword University after we go up there? Wouldn’t it be easier with Zhen Jie covering us?"

Zhang Yu had thought about this too, and at this moment, he shook his head and said: "Forget it, Sky Sword University teaches things that neither of us excels at, it’d only drag Azhen down if we went."

Zhang Yu knew that his current preparation was all aimed at the Wanfa University path.

Going to Sky Sword would surely slow down the efficiency of enhancing his strength.

He thought to himself: "In this world, strength is ultimately the most important; without enough strength, what’s the point of seeing Azhen?"

"Without enough strength, he couldn’t even protect himself."

Le Mulan walked over, asked: "Zhang Yu, you are choosing Wanfa University too, right? Which department are you planning to enter?"

Zhang Yu casually replied: "Civil Engineering Department."

Le Mulan was slightly startled: "C-Civil Engineering Department?"

At that moment, a scream came from behind, Zhang Yu quickly turned around to see Xiong Wenwu being pinned down, with several people kneeling on top of this black bear.

"Hey kid, what are you hiding in your butt? Are you smuggling contraband?"

"Stop pinching!" Xiong Wenwu’s face was flushed red, "You’re pinching my piles that recurred two days ago."

At the same time, a groaning sound echoed in Zhang Yu’s mind.

"How long have I been sleeping?"
