It turns out that Zhou Daoyi was not killed by anyone but instead encountered a Core Formation opportunity outside and forcibly attempted to form his core, leading to his own downfall.
After learning of this event, the atmosphere of grief within the Zhou Family significantly alleviated. Most people felt sorry for Zhou Daoyi but lost the sense of mourning.
After all, for those embarking on cultivation, dying while attempting to break through major barriers is just a degree better than sitting and transforming from old age. It could even be seen as a celebratory funeral!
Some determined cultivators would rather die in the process of a breakthrough than wait idly for their demise due to old age.
Zhou Daoyi perished while breaking through major barriers, which means he had once been infinitely close to the Golden Core Stage; in a certain sense, it was worth it!
Subsequently, the family held a grand funeral for Zhou Daoyi, and his ashes were interred in the family tomb.
