You dare to cultivate without money?!

Chapter 1204 803: Receiving the Ancient Shuttle (Zhang Pianpian Birthday Badge Event Ends on the 9th)

After touring the Ghost Faith Department's small building, Zhang Yu asked where his dormitory was.

He planned to forge the Divinity Transformation Pool as soon as possible—the earlier he could advance to the Divinity Transformation Realm, the better.

But right at that moment, a message from Bu Yingshu arrived: "Where are you? Have you arrived?"

Zhang Yu replied: "Taoist Lord, I just arrived at the Old Graveyard, currently reporting at the Ghost Faith Department."

Zhang Yu followed the Soul Cultivator to his dormitory and found a space of about 300 square meters, which was adequate for his daily cultivation and sufficient for him to construct the Divinity Transformation Pool.

Zhang Yu mused to himself, "Although it's a demotion disguised as a promotion, all the privileges of a Deputy Minister are still provided."

Just as Zhang Yu was purchasing the resources needed for the Divinity Transformation Pool through the Spirit Realm, Bu Yingshu sent another message: "What about the gift I gave you? Did you go pick it up?"

Zhang Yu replied, explaining his current situation, telling Bu Yingshu that he intended to set up the Divinity Transformation Pool based on his dormitory conditions first, and then go receive the gift.

But seeing Zhang Yu's reply, Bu Yingshu furrowed her brow sharply, thinking to herself, "The Divinity Transformation Pool... could it be more important than the gift I sent?"

Having known about Zhang Yu's departure for the Old Graveyard today, Bu Yingshu had been eagerly anticipating seeing Zhang Yu accept her gift, overcome with gratitude, overwhelmed by greed, and captivated by desire and rewards.

Thus, Bu Yingshu replied: "No way! You must go immediately!"

Glancing at the stream of urging messages from Bu Yingshu, a sliver of doubt flickered in Zhang Yu's mind: "What kind of madness is this woman up to now?"

"It's showing off," Fu Ji analyzed: "Once you get familiar with this Immortal Clan Noble Lady, she's quite understandable. It's like expecting the other party to be surprised and praised after giving a gift; she's wanting to show off the gift she sent you."

"Moreover, she seems impatient, wanting to see your reaction immediately."

Fu Ji reminded, "Zhang Yu, remember to appear sufficiently shocked and pleased when you receive the gift. She might be watching at that time."

Zhang Yu nodded slightly, willing to accept Fu Ji's guidance in this regard.

After all, during this period, making Bu Yingshu comfortable, Fu Ji's suggestions were quite helpful.

Thus, with Bu Yingshu's repeated urging, Zhang Yu had no choice but to leave the dormitory and prepare to go to the specified location to receive the gift.

"Qian Ji." Zhang Yu turned to Yan Qianji and said, "I need to go out for a while. Stay here and get familiar with the surroundings."

Seeing Zhang Yu about to leave, Yan Qianji quickly said, "True Monarch, let me accompany you. I want to learn more from you."

Zhang Yu looked at him and said, "Then let's go."

However, after glancing at the weather forecast outside, Zhang Yu did not leave immediately but inquired about where the Ghost Faith Department stored physical bodies.

"This ghostly place, the Old Graveyard... taking one's body out every day is both damaging to the health and the wallet; it's crucial to get accustomed to conducting daily activities through astral projection soon."

Zhang Yu knew that the Ghost Faith Department was supposed to be equipped with facilities for storing bodies.

The Cultivator he inquired from, named Ding Ze, was the head of the logistics group, a Level 3 Sect Affairs Officer.

Ding Ze said: "Deputy Minister Zhang, it's quite unfortunate that the remaining sets of body storage equipment just happen to be broken. Shall I bring you some Yang-blocking clothes instead?"

"Broken?" Zhang Yu frowned and said, "Alright, bring them over."

The so-called Yang-blocking clothes are garments that shield yang energy and resist cold and frost. Wearing them allows one to move freely in the Old Graveyard without worrying about fines for environmental pollution.

However, Yang-blocking clothes are ultimately not as reliable as storing the body, and if one stays outdoors for a long time, the cold will still seep in and harm the body.

Watching Zhang Yu and Yan Qianji leave, Ding Ze immediately contacted Minister Qin Chuan, saying, "Minister, they left with the Yang-blocking clothes."

"Yes, yes, I said the body storage equipment is broken and temporarily unusable."

After disconnecting, Ding Ze sighed inwardly, "The department's body storage equipment... I'm afraid Deputy Minister Zhang will never get to use it."

Meanwhile, Yan Qianji wore the Yang-blocking clothes and exited to the outdoors, immediately feeling a gust of yin energy wash over him.

Although much of this chilling cold was blocked by the Yang-blocking clothes, it still made Yan Qianji shiver, as if his Golden Core had trembled along with it.

Yan Qianji thought, "Alas, the True Monarch... is being targeted now, isn't he?"

He hadn't expected that not long after he arrived, the once-thriving Zhang Yu would be suppressed and become someone everyone avoided in the Yufa Pavilion.

"Ah, the sect's internal struggles are indeed unpredictable and full of intrigue—the ways of the world are uncertain."

"Life in the Ghost Faith Department in the future is likely going to be tough."

Tightening the Yang-blocking clothes on him, Yan Qianji followed Zhang Yu, heading towards the city center.

Under the cover of the Yang-blocking clothes, the excessive yang energy on them no longer impacted the environment, resulting in no more fines and no longer drawing attention.

But shortly after, the cold chill in the air intensified sharply, and notifications popped into the Eye Remains of Zhang Yu and Yan Qianji.

Yan Qianji suddenly looked up, and through his Eye Remains, he could see portals opening loudly in the sky, with countless ghostly apparitions rushing out like a black torrent sweeping in all directions.

"It's the nightly opening of the Ghost Gate at midnight." Zhang Yu reached out and grabbed Yan Qianji: "The yin energy is most intense every night at midnight in the Old Graveyard, the time to summon souls from various worlds within the sect level, and also the busiest time in the entire Old Graveyard."
