What’s the point of cultivating immortality if you don’t have money?.

Chapter 678 Lunar War 1 (Thanks to 'LizOrange' for the generous donation)
Standing on the ground of the second level of Kunxu, if you look up, you can see that the sky and earth seem to be completely pierced by some kind of force, and you can see the scenes of the third, fourth and fifth levels floating in the sky.

However, the fifth floor is now sealed off by a black curtain, making it impossible to see its exact appearance.

At this moment, as the light and flames emanating from the fourth level of Kunxu gradually extinguished, a layer of black sky gradually spread out and sealed it off.

Thus, due to the defeat of the 4th and 5th levels, nearly half of the sky above the 2nd level of Kunxu was shrouded in thick darkness, like a bottomless abyss slowly swallowing up the entire 2nd level.

At the same time, the third level of Kunxu began to gradually glow, and powerful cultivators could be vaguely seen fighting within it.

Seeing all this, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "This must be why Master is coming out of seclusion. We can't delay any longer."

"If this drags on any longer, most of the people on the second floor will probably surrender without a fight."

Looking at the dark sky spreading across the heavens, Zhang Yu could imagine how many people on the second floor of Kunxu were filled with anxiety, and how many were cheering with joy.

Considering that all the Nascent Soul cultivators from various schools have gathered on the second floor of Kunxu, Zhang Yu felt that this was probably something the Heavenly Court had anticipated, which was why all the Nascent Soul certificates were issued on the second floor.

"Besides that, it's probably also because of the Top Ten Leagues that the elites from each school have been attracted to the second floor."

Zhang Yu had only been enrolled for a short time when he learned that floors 2 to 6 all belonged to the Kunxu University campus, albeit with different functions. The Nascent Soul True Monarchs of each school often possessed multiple avatars, and for the convenience of their work, they relied on these avatars and the spirit realm to move simultaneously across floors 2 to 6.

Fu Ji analyzed, "With the Nascent Soul True Monarchs from various schools leading the sweep, the rebels on the second level still put up sporadic resistance, but it has become a sparse force."

"However, as long as that red moon in the sky still exists, it will greatly increase the costs of governance, logistics, and operations, and the economy of all the schools on the second floor will not be able to recover."

Fuki sighed, "Eight months is definitely not enough time for the Nascent Soul cultivators to reach their peak, but if we delay any longer, things will get even more complicated."

"Therefore, the Magnetic Pole plans to conquer the moon, partly to boost morale and stabilize the people's hearts, and partly to revive the economy and further accelerate the cultivation efficiency of the Nascent Soul cultivators."

Zhang Yu said, "The Righteous Alliance must also know the key to this. I'm afraid the moon won't be so easy to conquer."

Fuki said, "We have to fight, even if it's difficult. And this is a very important matter. It's definitely not just Wanfa who's going to make a move."

Soon, various announcements and news in the spirit world confirmed Fu Ji and Zhang Yu's thoughts.

First, ten universities announced a strategic partnership, led by Wanfa, to jointly participate in this lunar war.

Secondly, in preparation for this war, schools began issuing war bonds, and various war materials were requisitioned. As the civilian supply of medicines, food, magical artifacts, and other materials shrank, prices soared again.

Zhang Yu felt that the top ten universities at this moment were like a strong man, with his feet firmly on the ground, his fists clenched, his waist twisting, frantically gathering strength.

This process of accumulating power is too obvious to be concealed from anyone.

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Nowadays, almost all of the top ten universities have been infiltrated by the Righteous Alliance to some extent. This time, with such a big move, they probably think that since they can't hide it anymore, they might as well launch a full-scale attack."

Just then, the high school principal's image appeared on Zhang Yu's eye socket.

Zhang Yu connected the call and said, "Master."

The projection of the university president appeared in front of Zhang Yu. Looking up at the darkness in the sky, he sighed, "Are you also observing the situation in the sky from the top floor?"

Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Yes, I heard about what happened on the fourth floor, so I came to take a look."

After a pause, Zhang Yu asked, "Master, are you going to this battle too?"

Qingmu Shenjun looked towards the horizon, where the moon was rising, and slowly said, "The next battle is not only related to the myriad laws, but also to the life and death of the entire Kunxu Second Level."

"If we win, we will still have a chance."

"If we are defeated, I don't know how many people will join the evil god. When the Heavenly Court descends in the future, I'm afraid the entire Kunxu from the 2nd to the 5th level will be wiped out, and not even one in ten thousand will survive."

Zhang Yu opened his mouth, as if he had a thousand words in his heart, but he didn't know how to express them. In the end, he could only say softly, "Master, be careful in this battle."

With his hands behind his back, Qingmu Shenjun spoke with an air of profound vicissitude: "I was originally just a Nascent Soul cultivator, but I was propelled by the tides of the times to reach where I am today."

"This position is both incredibly prestigious and incredibly dangerous. You gain the most wealth, but you also face the strongest, fiercest, and most ruthless opponents."

"But now that I have achieved the Nascent Soul stage, occupied the resources of the Nascent Soul stage, and burned through endless assets, I should naturally shoulder the responsibilities of the Nascent Soul stage."

"The Jade Palace of the Long Night is a treasure of all magic. Your master and I participated in its construction and reclaimed it. We have an inescapable responsibility to do so."

"In this battle, there is no way for me and the magnetic poles to avoid it, nor can we retreat."

"But if we lose..."

Sensing the fighting spirit and determination in Qingmu Shenjun's words, Zhang Yu was slightly startled.

Lord Aoki looked at Zhang Yu and said, "You should take your men and hide."

"Leave the university town and hide deep underground."

"Try to hide until the day the Heavenly Court descends."

……

At the same time, a large amount of information about the moon appeared before the eyes of the Magnetic God.

Although she has been in seclusion for the past eight months, her avatar on the second floor has been active in various places.

The collection of intelligence on the moon, on various layers of blockade, and on changes in space is a key aspect of these operations.

"The second to fifth floors are completely sealed off; this sealing off is a change in spatial structure."

What the Magnetic God Lord didn't know was that as Zhang Yu pushed the Kunlun in his palm to level 30, a lot of knowledge related to space technology was also incorporated into her Tiangong Kaiwu.

She felt that ever since she witnessed Dao Qiankun's martial arts through videos and live streams, saw Zhang Yu's "Kunlun in the Palm" on the awards stage, and studied the phenomenon of two or three layers of spatial sealing, she had gained a great understanding of space technology.

"The change in the spatial structure has resulted in the complete blockade between the second and third floors, making it difficult for us to pass through."

"And this space blockade has even spread to the moon."

Looking at the vast amount of data before him, the Magnetic God thought to himself, "Through the attacks and probing over the past six months, the outer spatial structure of the entire Long Night Jade Palace has been altered..."

The Magnetic God analyzed in his mind: "The entire moon is protected by a spatial blockade, with only one gap for communication between the spirit world and the moon."

"But even if we launch an attack through this gap, we can only tear open an entrance that can accommodate two Nascent Soul cultivators in a short time."

"And all they need to do is block this entrance..."

Contemplating this scene, the Magnetic God felt as if he were seeing a canyon pass on an ancient battlefield, with the Nascent Soul expert guarding the moon acting as if one man could hold off ten thousand.

"With such a favorable geographical position, the opponent only needs to be able to block the combat power of two Nascent Soul cultivators at the same time to guard the moon."

"But if the time drags on too long..."

Magnetism God Lord envisioned the situations at levels 3, 4, and 5, thinking, "Then perhaps the armies from higher levels will come down to support us."

She knew that the blockades between the various levels made it difficult for the Nascent Soul cultivators from the top ten universities to provide cross-level support, but they wouldn't stop the rebels' actions. It was precisely because of this that even though the Magnetic Extreme God Lord hadn't reached his peak cultivation state, he still had no choice but to fight in this battle.

"If the rebels manage to consolidate their power on three to five levels, and the second level of the moon hasn't been recaptured, then I fear this calamity... will likely be disastrous for the entire Ten Great Realms..."

Magnetism God continued to organize intelligence and finalize the battle plan: "In addition to that, there is also the issue of communication with the spirit world."

"Besides that guy, there is at least one other evil god on the moon."

"To maintain smooth communication with the spirit world..."

As the Magnetic God pondered, the battle plan was continuously refined.

At the same time, massive amounts of information circulated among the Nascent Soul cultivators in the ten major universities, countless assets began to operate, and Nascent Soul True Monarchs swept across the land, stabilizing the situation and setting the stage for a series of earth-shattering battles.

……

Three days later.

The day the lunar war began.

The blood-red moon floated in the sky, just as it had every night for the past eight months, casting its crimson light upon the earth and the entire second level of Kunxu.

Beams of divine light, carrying earth-shattering force, shot into the sky from the campuses of the ten major universities, heading towards the moon.

At the same time, one after another Nascent Soul True Monarchs also set out, starting with the Long Night Jade Palace as the center, sealing off the entire area of ​​the moon within a radius of one thousand kilometers, prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving.

Zhang Yu watched as streaks of divine light, reaching to the heavens and earth, streaked across the night sky like pillars of heaven, reaching the bottom of the third level of Kunxu, as if they were supporting the third level.

He understood that this was not real support, but rather the Nascent Soul cultivators being on guard against support from above, and also guarding and watching over various key positions on the second floor, like the Sun Tunneling Crow, a magical artifact.

All of this was done to ensure that the upcoming lunar war would not be disturbed.

Thus, surrounded by divine light and watched by countless people, the real lunar war was about to begin.

As Zhang Yu watched the two beams of divine light, one black and one green, descend toward the moon, he knew that his two masters had already embarked on the battlefield.

As the two beams of divine light collided with the moon, visible ripples erupted from the moon.

The two beams of divine light, like two long swords, pierced the moon inch by inch.

Above this colossal magical artifact known as the Long Night Jade Palace, a figure gradually emerged.

“Chain Pivot…” Magnetism God looked at the figure that appeared on the moon and said coldly, “It really is you.”

Lian Shu Zhenjun... no, now Lian Shu Shenjun, was once the director of the Finance Department of Wanfa University, a disciple of the Finance Department's Nascent Soul God Jinque Shenjun, and even invited Zhang Yu to join the Finance Department.

Standing on the moon, looking at the two Nascent Soul cultivators approaching, he said calmly, "Magnetic Pole, Green Wood, I have been waiting for you two for a long time."

With a compassionate expression, Lord Chain Pivot said, "This battle, which began with my myriad laws, shall also end with my myriad laws."
