You dare to cultivate without money?!

Chapter 1203 802: Soul Illuminating Cave Heaven, Cemetery Onboarding_3

Zhang Yu understood Zhan Xian's meaning: Before becoming a cultivator truly capable of changing this world, he must strive to preserve himself, preserve his power, and climb upwards with all his effort.

But looking at those animated figures one by one, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "In the Old Graveyard… Wanfa Sect holds little power here, instead the Netherworld Palace, Sky Demon Sect, and White Bone Sect each have immense influence, isn't this a small realm where the Demon Path flourishes?"

As Zhang Yu pondered this, a Spirit Realm notification appeared before him, reminding him and Yan Qianji to pass the checkpoint.

After some inspection, Zhang Yu and Yan Qianji successfully passed through the gate.

With a dramatic change in the world around him, Zhang Yu had arrived at the Old Graveyard.

Upon entering the Old Graveyard, the first thing Zhang Yu felt was a chill.

He thought to himself: "Is this what they call the Yin atmosphere?"

A penetrating Yin Qi attacked his body, seeming to want to infiltrate his seven orifices and pores… permeate every inch of his body, making him feel a bone-deep, heart-freezing cold.

Zhang Yu immediately circulated his Qi-Blood to resist this Yin Qi.

Checking the Spirit Realm's weather report, Zhang Yu saw a Soul Cultivator broadcasting the forecast.

"Today, the average temperature in the Old Graveyard has dropped to minus 60 degrees, still a perfectly gloomy day. We suggest everyone take their corpses out for some activity to prevent them from stiffening."

"Yin Qi Quality Index: Excellent, suitable for the Divine Soul to depart from the body, various soul bodies can operate normally…"

Labs the weather report's contents, Zhang Yu could feel that the cold of the Old Graveyard was not just a change in temperature but was tied to consciousness and soul—a cold that related to Immortal Dao Technology.

Just then, a flash of light appeared before Zhang Yu, and a Spirit Realm notification emerged:

"According to our unit's real-time monitoring and recording…"

"You have been detected continuously emitting a significant visible Yang energy during cultivation, and the concentration of emissions clearly exceeds the limits stipulated by the mandatory standards of the 'Pollution Prevention Laws.'

"This behavior has violated relevant law chains, causing direct harm to the Old Graveyard's environment quality and public health."

"In accordance with relevant regulations, you are hereby issued with a formal warning and ordered as follows…"

"A fine?" Zhang Yu thought helplessly, he hadn't expected that merely resisting some Yin Qi invasion in the Old Graveyard would result in a fine.

Zhang Yu pondered: "No wonder documents say after arriving at the Old Graveyard, it's best for the Divine Soul to depart from the body temporarily storing the flesh."

But Zhang Yu also knew, he'd be staying in the Old Graveyard for quite some time, so storing his flesh outside this Small Realm wasn't appropriate.

"I'll just have to endure for now, report first, then find a place to store the flesh within the Graveyard."

Grabbing Yan Qianji at his side, Zhang Yu rose into the air and shot towards the address indicated by the Spirit Realm.

Underneath them, eerie, ancient structures swiftly passed by, and through the Eye Remains, numerous Soul Cultivators could be seen surging within.

At the same time, contrary to the icy, cold city, various advertisements kept popping into their Eye Remains, showcasing the thriving Soul Cultivation Market and the bustling trade of Corpse Items.

"Buy ten and get one free, top-grade Soul Cultivators of your choice! Perfect for starving specters with no mess, Dual Cultivation-less Red Specters, scam-bankruptcy destitute specters, cryptocurrency-collapsed legal ghost entities, tenfold vengeful souls, we have it all!

Zhang Yu knew the term 'appearance' referred to the manner of death, the more tragic the death, the heavier the resentment, and the better the appearance.

"Want the best heritage Soul Cultivators from the whole Old Graveyard? Heavenly Demon Sect's Wanfa Banquets exclusive supplier, ensuring worry-free absorption and usage, all processed on-site, no pre-made souls."

Zhang Yu's eyes flickered, and after a casual check in the Spirit Realm, he understood the so-called soul cultivation heritage... It referred to the manufacturer and brand of Soul Cultivators. In other words, it was about the company and person who killed the original soul cultivator.

At this moment, although it was minus 30 degrees under Zhang Yu's feet, looking dead quiet to the naked eye.

The sound of ghosts roared in their Eye Remains and ears, with continuous transactions making the market lively, treating Human Souls and Corpses like pig, cow, and sheep for trade.

In the eyes of many in the Old Graveyard, Zhang Yu rushing along was somewhat eye-catching just because the heat and Yang energy emanating from him were too obvious in this Yin atmosphere.

"Is he polluting the environment like that? People from Wanfa Sect are so uncivilized."

"So lacking in public morality."

Zhang Yu naturally wasn't aware of others' thoughts; he crossed half the Ghost City with Yan Qianji and finally arrived at the Wanfa Sect's station in the Old Graveyard.

It was a solitary small building, situated in the outskirts of the city.

Upon entering the building, no one came to greet Zhang Yu, the newly appointed Level 4 Sect Staff and Deputy Minister of the Ghost Faith Department.

Zhang Yu didn't take it to heart; he knew his promotion within Yufa Pavilion was an evident superficial rise but actual demotion, a suppression by the Yufa Pavilion's higher-ups, and coming to the Old Graveyard was like being banished to cold storage, so naturally, no one would be eager to associate with him.

Thus, Zhang Yu followed the directions and first headed to the Ghost Faith Department's minister's office.

But a pale-faced, ghostly Divine Soul stopped him, apologetically saying, "Sorry, Deputy Minister Zhang, but the Minister is away on business and can't welcome you right now."

"He asked me to tell you to take the time to get familiar with the work environment and the team…"

…

Meanwhile, inside an office within the Ghost Faith Department.

Minister Qin Chuan was speaking through the Spirit Realm: "He's arrived."

"Rest assured, how long has he been at the Yufa Pavilion? How long has he been here? With me here, I guarantee to pin him to this position without letting him take a step away."

"Yes… Yes… I'll immediately notify you of any developments."

Ending the call, Qin Chuan smiled slightly, thinking to himself: "I didn't expect that staying in this damn place would bring such a rare opportunity."

"Zhang Yu…"

His eyes flashed, and multiple surveillance images appeared before him, showing Zhang Yu being introduced around the Ghost Faith Department.

At the same time, a Soul Cultivator emerged in front of Qin Chuan, saying: "Minister, I've already told him you're on a business trip."

Qin Chuan nodded, thinking: "Let him cool off for a month and realize whose territory this is."

Just then, the Soul Cultivator added: "Minister, that Immortal Shuttle is still parked in the city center."

Qin Chuan's body tensed, immediately shutting off Zhang Yu's surveillance images, and sat upright: "Have you found out whose Immortal Shuttle that is? What background does it have?"

Several days ago, an Immortal Shuttle with an Immortal Token entered the Old Graveyard, instantly drawing attention from all sides.

But despite investigations, no one could uncover the background of this Immortal Shuttle, making Qin Chuan even more attentive.

He understood the more that's the case, the more it meant the Immortal Shuttle's background was extraordinary.

And compared to Zhang Yu… the Immortal Shuttle and its owner were far more important in his eyes.

Especially descending at such a time, it might bring changes affecting the entire Old Graveyard.
