Chapter 275 to 276: Look into it for the past two or three h
late!A young man walked in and whispered something in Situ Bei's ear.Because the sound of their voices was incredibly soft.Even if Shen Changqing listened attentively, he couldn't quite hear clearly.L...Prefectural Commissioner.
It is to obtain a portion of extraordinary power from demons first, and then allow oneself to break through, thus entering the extraordinary realm.
The words of the warrior.
Then it's not about relying on others' extraordinary power, but on oneself. Every time one breaks through and advances, one tempers their flesh and blood once more, step by step, reaching the realm of the extraordinary.
If we talk about master martial artists, their physical bodies don't possess too many extraordinary characteristics.
Then, in the realm of Grandmaster.
A martial artist has already reached the extraordinary level.
Simply put.
In fact, Shen Changqing's body now has no vital points left.
Even if the body is broken, as long as there is enough energy, it can repair itself immediately.
Even if my head were to explode, it would be the same.
Just like when Mahana was released, his physical body exploded, and even his soul could escape.
In this regard.
He found that the town guard was much weaker than the Grand Master.
“As for the Grand Marshal, I don't know what that entails. But even a Marshal of the King's Rank is, in terms of life level, actually inferior to a Grandmaster.”
This is just a placeholder.
The same kind of fierce fighting, a Grandmaster's methods for preserving his life are many more than Wang Jie's garrison commander.
"The difference, I suppose, is the price you pay for taking shortcuts!"
Shen Changqing's eyes were profound.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
The general's route was the shortcut.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
As long as the fusion is successful, one can achieve apotheosis in a single step, directly leaping from the ordinary realm of Grandmasters to another level entirely.
So-called master peak.
even reaching the pinnacle of Grandmasters.
Although both are within the realm of Grandmasters, these two states have already become completely independent, not something ordinary Grandmasters can compare to.
An ordinary master needs a long time to hone themselves or encounter a great opportunity to be promoted from Master to the peak, even to the ultimate pinnacle.
By comparison.
The Guardian who has fused with demonic power, undoubtedly took a shortcut.
Taking shortcuts always comes at a price.
Power drives.
Destroying the scroll containing the General's Technique in front of him, Shen Changqing settled his mind and looked at his own panel.
Name: Shen ChangqingPower: Great Qin Town Demon DivisionIdentity: Nan You Mansion GuardianRealm: GrandmasterSoul: Divine Soul (Seventh Stage)
Physical Body: Shenxiao Golden Body (Tenth Stage)
Martial Arts: Annihilating Demon Silencing Finger (Mystic Art Level 2), Shrinking Ground into an Inch (Mystic Art Level 1, can be upgraded)
Slaughter: 4102
Divine Ability: 276
"The kill value is just over four thousand, the three demon spirits will give about two thousand four to two thousand five kill values, which is pretty good."
It's a pity they aren't truly demons in the truest sense; killing them doesn't grant any spiritual energy.
Otherwise, I could also have some growth in the soul realm. Even if I couldn't break through to the eighth rank, it would shorten the distance by a bit.
"Also, Wang Mu is gone. Top-tier demons can provide much more killing points and spiritual power. Oh well!"
>
Thinking of Wang Mubai who had run away, Shen Changqing felt a bit helpless.
It's a pity.
Seeing the strength that could have been broken through, it just slipped away like this. There's nothing to regret saying, except for self-deception.
Immediately.
>
He looked back at the panel again.
"The killing of three demon generals and forcing Wang Mubai to flee would not have been possible without the Zhuxie Jiemie Finger. However, the Sudi Chengcun Divine Ability also played a crucial role."
Although one force can break ten thousand methods, any flashy tricks are no match for the most direct power.
>
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
However, it's not really easy to truly achieve the feat of breaking through all methods with one force.
Therefore, even though the world has become smaller, it remains indispensable.
If this divine ability were to merge once more, it would certainly become even more powerful.
Shen Changqing pondered.
If the soul doesn't advance, the Shenxiao Golden Body cannot be fused and breakthrough. Then, the only remaining way to improve one's strength is to advance in divine abilities.
Don't look at the four thousand kill values too much.
Actually, after the second fusion of divine abilities, the killing value consumed is around 2500 to 2600.
If there were a third fusion, he estimated it would take at least seven or eight thousand killing points.
After all, a divine ability of second-level fusion consumes 2,500 kill points for him.
But a divine ability of three times fusion consumes two abilities of double fusion, this is the consumption of at least five thousand kill values.
> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Not to mention.
The fusion of two second-tier divine abilities still requires one killing point.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Two divine abilities fused together once consume one thousand killing points. If two secondary divine abilities are fused again, according to the previous consumption, it would take at least two or three thousand.
So, the estimated consumption of seven or eight thousand is relatively conservative.
Although four thousand kill values are many.
But it's highly unlikely that the Fusion of Annihilation Finger will be successful.
The only feasible way.
This is a further integration of the ability to shrink distances into nothingness.
"The technique of "shrinking the ground into an inch," which is at the first level of divine power, after merging, the resulting technique is whether it reaches the first level of divine power or not, it is unknown."
Although my divine ability value is left with over two hundred, even if the merged divine abilities haven't reached the entry level, there's no need to worry about anything.
"Once the demon and evil spirits are dealt with, we must turn our full attention to those mountain spirits."
Shen Changqing, seeing the meager amount of divine power, thought of the mountain spirits hidden all over the place.
The task of capturing the mountain spirit was given to the Demon Suppression Division.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Now that the Demon Suppression Division is fully engaged in dealing with demons and evil spirits, it's estimated that they don't have much strength left to deal with the mountain spirit.
Moreover, mountain spirits are adept at hiding, making them even harder to locate.
After the demon problem is alleviated, we will definitely focus on dealing with mountain spirits.
Those who are not of my tribe have different hearts.
Mountain spirits are born from the intelligence of beasts; to them, humans are nothing but blood food.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
Even if it's a short-term collaboration, Shanling could potentially backstab humanity if any unforeseen circumstances arise in the future.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
...it seems so.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing couldn't possibly keep such a menace around.
If you can kill, it's natural to kill cleanly.
Not only can Shan Ling contribute divine power, allowing them to progress faster in their divine abilities.
This is the time.
A faint light shone through the window curtain.
Shen Changqing got up and pushed open the door to leave the study.
Unknowingly, it has been a night.
In a breath.
>
The purple qi of heaven and earth drifted in, causing a slight tremor in his spirit. The exhaustion he had felt in both his soul and blood seemed to have recovered a fraction.
"From where does this purple qi of heaven and earth truly originate!"
Looking at the horizon, he felt a great deal of curiosity.
The effects of the purple qi of heaven and earth are truly immense.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Even at his current level, where he can ingest purple Qi to replenish his consumption and even strengthen his already weak abilities when at his peak.
Over time, the cumulative effect is astonishing.
Shen Changqing felt.
If one could obtain a vast amount of heavenly purple qi, one's strength might increase incredibly quickly, not much slower than slaying demons.
Paused for a moment.
He headed towards the Demon Slayer Division's library.
The Demon Suppression Division has been rebuilt.
The library is the first thing that needs to be built.
When the Heaven's Alliance attacked Yuecheng last time, the Demon Suppression Division moved or completely destroyed all martial arts manuals beforehand, leaving no opportunity for the Heaven's Alliance to salvage anything.
After the reconstruction, all kinds of books and records were also copied from the backup reserves of other Demon Suppression Brigades.
I have arrived at the library.
>
There is a master guarding that place.
It was only when Shen Changqing appeared that the master dared not intercept him. He respectfully let the other party in.
Now, not to mention the Demon Suppression Division, even in the Nanyou Mansion, anyone with a little bit of insight wouldn't have never heard of the name Shen Changqing.
... while the people of the Demon Suppression Division.
But any reputable exorcist, even if they've never met the real person, would have at least seen their portrait.
"Observing Shen Zhen from close range, he truly is captivating!"
The master's face was full of emotion and reverence.
He once saw with his own eyes how the other party powerfully killed Master Mahakashya when he was in Mount Putuo.
Back then.
Shen Changqing's strength is already deeply ingrained in people's hearts.
Now, seeing it up close, he couldn't help but feel awe.
> On the other side.
Shen Changqing stepped into the library, without stopping, and went directly to the highest level of the library.
Inside, it is a place specifically for storing master martial arts techniques.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
I just skimmed it over.
He then discovered an embarrassing thing.
That is——
It's already rare for a master to be able to use their own style of light kung fu.
After the panel fusion, the light skill will no longer appear in the panel. If it doesn't appear in the panel, it means it cannot be fused again.
Last time it was about shrinking the distance.
Shen Changqing had specifically sought out a dozen masters-level light gong techniques.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
You should know.
Light kung fu, once it reaches the level of a grandmaster, is extremely rare in itself.
After all, this type of martial art is not a primary offensive martial art, and few people would create it.
Now.
In his panel, there were only four more master-level light skills.
However.
Shen Changqing was not too discouraged.
The martial arts created by fusing the ordinary master's martial arts reach the level of top-tier master martial arts. Even after fusion, they remain at the level of top-tier master martial arts.
He had not forgotten this.
The fusion of panels has a bottleneck, the upper limit of ordinary martial arts is at the level of top masters' martial arts.
To break through to the level of Grandmaster, only the reintegration of top-tier master martial arts can do so.
>
Therefore.
If there is no master martial arts, then find lightness skills at the innate level.
If you don't have even the basic level of light skills, then things will be a bit troublesome.
This represents.
Afterward, when you fuse again, it will consume a greater amount of killing points.
"Perhaps I should consider cultivating a group of martial artists dedicated to creating martial arts. No, the purpose of the Martial Arts Pavilion right now is actually to create martial arts."
It's just that the situation is chaotic right now, so I had to reassign the people from Wugong.
"As the head of the Martial Arts Pavilion, I must also fully utilize its potential."
Shen Changqing thought of Wugong Pavilion.
The function of the martial arts pavilion has been gradually weakening, and now it has even broken its own limits. The role of the martial arts pavilion now lies in creating martial arts.
Just right.
He himself needs to integrate new martial arts as a foundation.
If the people of Wugong could continuously create martial arts for themselves, Shen Changqing felt that he could save a lot of effort and resources.
>
He glanced at the top floor of the library.
He turned and went down a level.
Since the lightness skills of a master-level are gone, then take a step back and focus on martial arts at the Xiantian level.
Has Wang Mubai's news been confirmed
In the grand hall, Dongfang Zhao sat calmly and steadily like Mount Tai.
Below.
He raises his fists in a valiant stance.
"Tiance Weiji bao, Shen Zhen shou from Nan Youfu and Wang Mu bai fought after a battle, driving the opponent to Dahuangfu. Afterwards, he was ambushed by barbarians in Dahuangfu, killing three third-rank demon spirits with his own power, and then driving back Wang Mu bai."
It can now be basically confirmed that Wang Mubai has officially left the Great Qin.
But specifically where, it is unknown for now.
The Heavenly Watch could truly grasp intelligence within the Qin realm.
Once he leaves the Qin territory.
Although the Heavenly Watch can also obtain intelligence, its accuracy and timeliness are significantly inferior.
If Wang Mubai had the intention to conceal himself, it would be very difficult to detect.
> Until he finished speaking.
Though Dong Fang Zuo’s expression remained unchanged at first, he eventually changed his appearance.
"I didn't expect him to actually go this far, he's much faster than I anticipated—"
Take a deep breath.
>
He is now also inevitably shocked.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Although Dongfang Zhao had known for a long time that Shen Changqing would one day grow to his current height.
But.
He never expected that the other party would be in such a state right now.
And—
Dong Fang Zhao knew very well how powerful Wang Mu Bai was.
At that time, the opponent had just emerged from the Demon Sealing Tower and his strength hadn't fully recovered. I could only barely hold him back.
In other words.
>
Even at his peak, Wang Mubai was someone Dongfang Zhao had no absolute confidence in subduing.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Unless it makes another breakthrough itself.
However.
Only he himself knows how difficult it is to break through to the next level after reaching this state.
Of these, it is a matter of seizing the opportunity.
Now that Shen Changqing can drive Wang Mubai around and even force him to leave Qin, it's already enough to explain everything.
“After this incident, Shen Changqing’s three words are considered to be awe-inspiring throughout the entire Qin Dynasty, right”
A smile appeared on the face of the Eastern Emperor.
>
Upon hearing this.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
"To be able to drive away demons, this alone is enough to shake the entire Qin Dynasty."
"You said that if he were to be put in the position of power over the Demon Suppression Office right now, would he be able to control the situation"
The Eastern Emperor asked back.
Suddenly, Qian Zhan fell silent.
This issue, no matter how you answer it, is a headache.
So, he chose silence.
The Eastern Emperor said, "You don't need to be so circumspect. Since I asked you, just answer truthfully."
“Uh…”
Qian Zhan pondered for a moment.
"General Shen's strength and prestige are indeed unquestionable, but how he will carry it out is ultimately up to General Shen himself to decide."
As for strength and prestige.
In his view, the other party was not much different from Dongfang Zhao.
especially in terms of age.
The lifespan of a Grandmaster is not something that a Commandant can compare to.
With the other party sitting in the Demon Suppression Division, it is unlikely that there will be any major disturbances in the next hundred years.
"Well, you go down first. Keep a close eye on the movements in all directions, especially the barbarians. Report back to me immediately if there's any change."
Instantly, he turned his gaze to the star chart projection in the center of the hall.
>
There.
There are no more red dots.
When the celestial chart was activated, all the rebels within the Demon Suppression Bureau who were connected to the demonic race had been found out.
Here is the translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The current Demon Suppression Division.
This can be considered a complete overhaul.
Although.
The Eastern Decree cannot guarantee that there are no others secretly colluding with the Eternal Alliance, but those rebels tainted with demonic energy have all been purged.
But if someone secretly colludes with the Everlasting Alliance and demons, yet hasn't been tainted by demonic energy, then it would be difficult to discern.
That's all.
It can't be helped.
Even the most powerful celestial chart cannot encompass everything.
To have such an effect is already very good.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
I took a glance at the star chart.
He got up and left.
The Palace.
Today's Gu Xuanji is a bit different from before. In terms of mental state and appearance, it seems to have improved a lot.
"Your Majesty looks well today."
The Eastern Emperor smiled faintly.
Upon hearing this.
Gu Xuanji also smiled faintly: “With the celestial chart appearing, it’s as if a mountain has been lifted from my heart. However, I never expected that there would be demons lurking within the palace itself! This is truly outrageous!”
Speaking of the end.
The smile on his face vanished, replaced by a few points of ferocity.
The palace is a place where national fortunes converge, and it is the most concentrated place of national fortune within the entire capital city.
Ordinary demons.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!
As soon as you step into the palace, you will be crushed to dust by the weight of the nation.
Now.
It turns out that a demon was hiding in the imperial palace, undetected by the national fortune. The concealment methods of the demonic clan shocked even Gu Xuanji.
It can be said.
Had it not been for the appearance of the star chart, he would have remained in the dark until now.
This explains it.
Why are many of the imperial court's decisions often leaked
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
To put it plainly, it's because the Everlasting Alliance had already sent people to keep an eye on the palace.
The Eastern Decree stated: "Your Majesty has eradicated all rebels. With the Star Chart destroyed, it is now impossible for demons to infiltrate the capital."
It's not just the capital city. Even within the Qin Empire, if demons want to enter, they will be detected by the Star Chart immediately.
"Your Majesty, the reason I'm here today is to discuss a matter and seek your advice."
Let him finish speaking.
Gu Xuanji's face lost its murderous aura, and a faint smile appeared once again.
"Come on, what's the matter that brought you here in person"
"The celestial formations are set up across the land, waiting until the demons are eradicated. Once the demon clan is thoroughly purged, it will be extremely unlikely for them to infiltrate this place again. In contrast, the various prefectures along the borders of Qin are of paramount importance."
Apart from the minister, the garrison forces in various prefectures within the Central Plains region can be proportionally reduced.
At the same time, the garrison strength of each border prefecture has been increased. Once demons invade, we can intercept them at the first opportunity.
In that case, even if demons and evil spirits wreak havoc, the number of casualties could be reduced considerably.
Dongfang Zao clasped his fists and said.
Throughout history, demons and monsters have caused widespread death and injury, with many innocent civilians caught in the crossfire.
Also, the Demon Suppression Division can't react immediately.
But now it's completely different.
When there's an astrological phenomenon, demons appear, and the Demon Suppression Office can detect them immediately.
Moreover.
By intercepting the demons and evils outside, we can also ensure that the people of Qin are not affected.
Gu Xuan nodded. “Your proposal is good. These past few days, I’ve also been thinking about this. It’s better to intercept the demons outside than have a civil war within.”
With a sharp decrease in civilian casualties, our great Qin state can also maintain stability.
But there is a problem, that is to ensure the astrolabe does not malfunction, otherwise, it is easy for the inside to fall into a state of emptiness.
The horoscope is favorable.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
But he also kept a certain measure of caution in his heart.
If the star map has any more problems, then things will be serious.
“Your Majesty, there is no need to worry too much about this matter. Not to mention that the Star Chart is the painstaking effort of my Demon Suppression Division and will not easily encounter any problems. It would be quite difficult for demons to block the monitoring of the Star Chart.”
And we're not entirely pulling all the resources from the Demon Suppression Agency, just reducing some.
Even if demons were to infiltrate, with the power of each household, I believe suppressing them would not be a major problem.
Dong Fang proclaimed, with a confident air.
Here's the translation, keeping the HTML tags intact:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The stronger the demons, the harder it is to hide themselves.
If we say.
It is possible that the demon clan possesses powerful hidden methods, allowing some weaker demons to infiltrate.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But to say powerful demons, that possibility is much lower.
Even if each government department only leaves one-third of their original strength, it would not be difficult to suppress the situation.
Gu Xuanji pondered for a moment, then nodded.
"Since you put it that way, I have no further questions. What's the current situation with the Everlasting Alliance"
“The star chart was set up, and the Everlasting Alliance's whereabouts were also exposed. Powerful demon-hunting experts from various government offices took action, killing many demons from the Everlasting Alliance.”
>
Besides—"
Oriental *Zhaoxi*’s expression grew solemn.
“Because of this opportunity, my lord discovered that the Eternal Alliance Leader is not just Martial Emperor alone.”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Do you mean to say that the Eternal Alliance Leader has someone else"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Gu Xuanji's brow furrowed.
The Eternal Alliance is a malignant tumor that poses a serious threat to the Qin Dynasty.
Especially for these rebellious demons who have surrendered, he held a deep disgust in his heart.
"Indeed, in this battle against the Eternal Alliance, several high-ranking figures appeared, including at least one confirmed Martial Emperor. The identities of the others remain unknown for now."
But since they have revealed their traces, my Demon Suppression Division will do our utmost to investigate and uncover their true identities.
"That's best then."
Gu Xuanji's expression was calm as he lifted the teacup in front of him, which was emitting a faint heat.
The Everlasting Alliance has existed for several hundred years, not much shorter than the time the Qin Dynasty was established. They claim to the outside world that those who join the Everlasting Alliance can obtain the opportunity for immortality.
Although this is exaggerated, the Everlasting Alliance must have ways to extend lifespan.
Even the powerful individuals within the Eternal Alliance might not necessarily be the ones currently in power. If we look back two or three centuries, we might find some clues.
The Everlasting Alliance claims to be everlasting.
>
Then, if there were no long-lived people in the alliance, that wouldn't do.
The Eastern Emperor said: "I understand this matter, but if we investigate it, things will become more complicated."
>
Nowadays, there are already many powerful people.
If we go back two or three hundred years, the number of powerful people wasn't as numerous as stars in the sky, but it was certainly not insignificant.
Especially since so much time has passed, many traces have disappeared.
Such a situation.
To find out the truth is extremely difficult.
But.
He also did not refuse.
The identity of the Eternal Alliance Leader must be investigated, otherwise, allowing them to change their identity freely in the world would lead to endless future troubles.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
At this time.
This is a test.
Gu Xuanji spoke in a low voice: “The celestial disk has been set up, and many demons have been eliminated within the territory of the Qin Dynasty. The court now holds an absolute advantage over Da Huangfu. Although the barbarians haven’t been completely expelled, they are almost gone.”
>
My time is running out. Waiting any longer would be a waste of time.
Therefore, I have decided that three days hence, I shall lead my army in person to Lu'an Prefecture, and then attack the Great Zhou.
Have you considered your side of things
Upon hearing this.
>
The Eastern Emperor clasped his fists.
“Your Majesty has ordered, how can I refuse I shall accompany the army and expand the borders of our Great Qin!”od Master were about to enter the heavens, the Saint Lord suddenly pressed down with his right hand.At the same time.As Cheng and the God King were about to leave the Heavenly Domain of the Huan Mount...
