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

Chapter 581 What a wicked beast! Daring to carry out construction recklessly!

As one of the top ten universities, Wanfa University is renowned for its military-grade strength in its flagship programs, which has even been heard of in Xiangshan, far away from Tianyao University.

After Xiangshan learned that he was going to Wanfa University to do a project, he learned more about Wanfa University.

For example, Xiangshan had read about the famous Taihao Sacred Law Sword Formation in the weapon crafting department.

He just didn't expect that Zhang Yu would be able to use this military-grade power.

Recalling the scenes of Zhang Yu's actions, Xiangshan's expression also became slightly serious.

"The essence of flying sword cutting is the compression of matter."

"The essence of the Taihao Sacred Law Sword Formation cutting through the spirit world is to use an inner network composed of 12 flying swords to squeeze the spirit world."

"In ancient times, this inner network of Taihao was known as the Taihao Sword Realm..."

Thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning, and Xiangshan could already feel the surging heat waves coming from deep underground.

Flames transformed into giant hands, striving to stabilize the trembling earth.

"Besides squeezing the spirit realm, the Taihao Sword Realm can also transmit power within the sword formation."

Xiangshan knew that Zhang Yu was using the Taihao Sacred Law Sword Formation to transmit the Eternal Sun Flame unleashed by the Heavenly Sun God into the ground in one go, in conjunction with the Heavenly Kunlun Mountain-Moving Divine Power to stabilize the earth.

At the same time, flames were raging both above and below. Xiangshan felt as if he and his classmates had been trapped in a giant oven by Zhang Yu, and the temperature of their flesh and blood was constantly rising.

Xiangshan angrily rebuked, "Zhang Yu! Are you trying to burn down the construction site of our Heavenly Demon University? If you burn even one demon descendant to death today, I will report you to the president of Wanfa University!"

Zhang Yu's voice drifted faintly from the sky: "The unstable earth veins are affecting construction. I'm just suppressing them temporarily. It won't be long before everything is fine. Please bear with me."

Xiangshan didn't expect to stop the other party with a single angry rebuke. The next moment, he turned his magic power around and activated the military-grade magic body he had rented—the Celestial Elephant Bone.

In an instant, dark clouds surged in the sky, and in the blink of an eye, thunder rumbled, followed by a torrential downpour that swept across the entire world.

Of course, this was not a natural climate change managed by the gods, but a small-scale celestial phenomenon change forcibly manipulated by a military-grade magic weapon, but its power should not be underestimated.

With the torrential downpour, the sweltering heat that had been relentlessly engulfing the area was immediately relieved.

"Hmph? Rain?" Zhang Yu sneered and shouted, "Then I'll burn this sky dry."

The next moment, with the frenzied output of magic power, the Everlasting Blaze below the floating island began to devour the rocks everywhere, and the fire suddenly intensified, like a dazzling sun in the sky, emitting a dazzling light.

At the same time, streaks of fire dragons shuttled back and forth within the sword formation, flashing with astonishing heat deep underground, like rolling magma surging back and forth.

Seeing this, Xiangshan sneered, and with a burst of blood and energy, a mouthful of white fangs bulged out: "Let's see how long you can burn!"

In the blink of an eye, the rain in the sky became more and more torrential, and a cold front swept in, mixing the rain with a bit of frost, and gradually turning from heavy rain into a mixture of rain and snow.

Xiangshan and Zhang Yu engaged in a magical battle, one using water and the other fire. The entire construction site was like a giant steamer, making the workers feel hot and cold all at once, and they were all affected by the battle.

After such a fierce battle, Xiangshan couldn't help but sigh, "I never imagined that Zhang Yu, who was beaten so badly by me just over a year ago and could only barely win by resorting to tricks and schemes, would be catching up to me so quickly."

"The weapon crafting system... still has an advantage over the earth and wood system. If we meet again in a few months, I'm afraid even I won't be able to fight him."

"This time, it's definitely the best opportunity to step on him."

Thinking of this, Xiangshan suddenly exerted his strength, unleashing all his cultivation and magical body.

Just then, he felt a chill sweep over his body, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head, causing his blood and qi to sink.

"This is……"

Xiangshan looked at the various physical parameters displayed in his eye and realized that his body temperature had not dropped at all; the chilling, icy feeling was just a psychological illusion.

"It's the sword intention."

Xiangshan suddenly recalled the introduction to the Taihao Moral Sword Intent in the Taihao Sacred Law Sword Formation.

"The Taihao Moral Sword Intent is a means used in sword formations to lock onto targets."

Xiangshan understood even more clearly that if the Taihao Moral Sword Intent were used to lock onto the physical location of simple matter, it wouldn't be very powerful or precise.

But if it hits a human body or a living being...

"Once struck by the sword intent, in the eyes of the array master, we become as clear as streaks of fire in the darkness..."

"The greater the power of the Taihao Moral Sword Intent, the more persistent and difficult it is to remove."

At the same time, Xiangshan felt the intense hostility within the sword intent, like a bone-deep infection, clinging tightly to him. Even with his cultivation and the steadfastness of his Dao heart, it would probably take him several minutes of full-force internal energy to dispel it.

Sensing the overwhelming hostility within the sword intent, Xiangshan confirmed something in his heart.

"The refinement of Taihao Moral Sword Intent is related to the moral standards of practitioners."

“Zhang Yu’s sword intent is so malicious towards the demon race…” “This guy really does have a lot of prejudice against us.”

At this moment, the demons on the construction site, locked in by Taihao's moral sword intent, felt as if countless sharp swords were nailed to their vital parts, and they would be torn to pieces if they were not careful.

Seeing the countless alarms and pleas for help from classmates and colleagues appearing in his eyes, Xiangshan immediately responded: Don't be afraid! Zhang Yu wouldn't dare to kill the demon! He's just trying to scare us!

That being said, Xiangshan also understood that it was like having a knife to your throat during negotiations. Even if you knew the other party wouldn't kill you, you were definitely at a disadvantage in terms of momentum and would naturally be in a psychologically weak position.

Moreover, in Xiangshan's view, Zhang Yu's Taihao Moral Sword Intent was far too malevolent towards the demon race, making it easier to frighten them.

Then Xiangshan added: Did you forget the insurance you bought before you came?
Xiangshan: If you die, you'll get compensation, what are you afraid of?
Xiangshan: With money, why are you afraid of dying?

The insurance that Xiangshan mentioned was the insurance that the Finance Department of Wanfa University sold to the demon descendants before construction began.

Upon hearing Xiangshan's words, the demon descendants, who had just been trembling under the pressure of the sword intent, suddenly perked up, as if a force had supported their spines, and they all faced the pressure of the sword intent with pride.

"Come on! Go ahead and kill me if you dare!"

"Zhang Yu, you human immortalist!"

"Senior Xiangshan! If you can't take it anymore, just use me as a live stake!"

The demons all took action, joining forces with Xiangshan to combat the environmental changes brought about by Zhang Yu.

Sensing the united and fearless spirit of the demons under the oppression of Zhang Yu, this discriminatory demon, Xiangshan laughed heartily, "Zhang Yu! Did you see that? You can't scare us."

"The hymn to the demon race is a hymn to courage; the greatness of the demon race is the greatness of courage!"

"The Heavenly Demon will surely prevail!"

Seeing the demons on the construction site below looking like they'd won the battle, Zhang Yu smirked, pressed his sword finger down, and flashes of sword shadows disappeared into the air.

As the Taihao Sword Realm surged, the Spirit Realm Network was once again under pressure.

Xiangshan felt that his connection with his companions was intermittent, that his control over the construction site was sometimes present and sometimes absent, and that various monitors and sensors could no longer maintain constant connectivity as the signals from the spirit world changed.

At this moment, it was as if his eyes were covered by a veil, making everything he saw hazy and indistinct.

But Xiangshan didn't care. He just continued to unleash every bit of power within him and fight against Zhang Yu.

"You want to play it safe? I'm going to turn things upside down!"

The earth is cracking, constantly altering the geological structure beneath our feet.

Rain and snow fell, repeatedly extinguishing the high temperatures generated by the flames.

Xiangshan thought proudly, "Zhang Yu, last time I was too focused on the battle, which allowed you to win a small victory in construction."

"But today I control the earth with one hand and manipulate the heavens with the other. How can you compete with me in construction capabilities?!"

Sensing Zhang Yu's efforts to suppress the earth's veins, Xiangshan roared and increased his power once again.

But during the several clashes, Xiangshan felt the opponent's power suddenly dissipate, followed by a loud explosion from deep underground, and the ground shook several times more violently.

Xiangshan smiled slightly, looked at the gradually fading firelight in the sky, and let out a long roar: "Zhang Yu! Can't you hold on any longer?"

"You lost!"

"You were defeated by the demon race you despised and looked down upon!"

Xiangshan exclaimed excitedly, "I'm going to expose everything that happened today! Let the world know that you, a weapon-refining student from Wanfa University, were defeated by me, a civil engineering student from Tianyao University! Let everyone know how much you discriminate against demons!"

Looking at the towering Elephant Mountain, Zhang Yu said calmly, "You are the one who will lose."

Xiangshan was slightly taken aback. His first instinct was to think that he was a "demon" rather than a "human". Was Zhang Yu's choice of words inaccurate? Was it intentional discrimination or an accident?
Then I wondered what Zhang Yu meant by "defeat"?
Before Xiangshan could react, divine figures flickered in the sky.

A righteous deity looked at Elephant Mountain and shouted, "You vile beast! How dare you carry out such reckless construction! You're polluting the groundwater!"

Xiangshan was slightly taken aback: "Contaminated groundwater?"

He looked at the deity before him and, upon discovering that the man's name was Deng Bingding, quickly said, "Deng Zhengshen, I..."

"What do you mean, 'you'?" Deng Bingding said coldly, "Do you think this is your Heavenly Demon University? You can pollute it and nobody will care?"

"Don't you know there's a medicinal herb field just a few kilometers away? If you pollute the groundwater, and cause any damage to the field, I couldn't afford to pay for it even if I sold myself!"

Just then, as Zhang Yu withdrew from the Sword Realm, Xiangshan once again sensed the situation in various parts of the construction site.

It was only then that they discovered that, without anyone noticing, large amounts of paint, wastewater, discarded building materials, and raw piles had been discharged into the groundwater.

Xiangshan immediately understood. Just now, Zhang Yu deliberately withdrew the power that suppressed the earth veins, causing him to damage the rock layers below and allowing a large amount of pollutants to fall in.

But these things should have been stored properly according to regulations, so how could they have been leaked so easily?
