Chapter 142-143: It Begins Again
Saint's arrival is fierce, it is not enough to shake the foundation of the Qin Dynasty."Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!But a ghost saint is not worth Yang Zun's fea...The metamorphosis of strength.
The change of the panel.
>
For Shen Changqing, it's all good news.
Looking at the over seven hundred points of killing value left, he did not immediately enter the enhancement stage, but instead left his residence and went back to the Demon Slayer Hall.
Nothing else.
If you want to improve the panel, you also need energy replenishment.
Just left the house.
Then Shen Changqing met Xun Qu.
"Xun, defend the city!"
“Elder Shen’s commotion was no ordinary affair!”
Xun Qu's face held a hint of resentment.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
It's a real shame that such a fine library has been destroyed. It's quite troublesome.
However.
What truly matters to him.
It's not that the library has been destroyed, but rather what reason could possibly lead to such a commotion
Recalling that day when the thunder roared.
Xun Qu is still shaken by the experience.
This is a paragraph.
He had a premonition.
If it were me, I definitely wouldn't be able to withstand the strike of heavenly thunder.
In comparison.
Shen Changqing endured the bombardment of heavenly thunder for so long, in the end, he remained unharmed.
This is the only point.
Let it marvel at its own insufficiency.
Upon hearing this.
Shen Changqing's face was as usual, with no hint of embarrassment: "At that time, I was comprehending martial arts and had some gains. I didn't expect it to cause such a commotion. However, I see that although the Library Pavilion was destroyed, the losses should not be great."
"As for whatever needs to be done, Xun can just tell me. I'm sure some silver won't be a problem."
The library is broken, no big deal.
Just pay the money.
He's not as poor as he used to be, and his finances are still okay.
As for the collection of books,
What was destroyed was the fourth-level Grandmaster martial arts, which had backups in the capital city.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
Otherwise.
Shen Changqing had no choice but to do this, becoming as calm and composed as he is now.
Xun Qu shook his head helplessly: "You don't need to worry about the reconstruction of the Library, Elder Shen. The Demon Suppression Division can handle it itself. It's just that your martial arts enlightenment... it feels a bit familiar to me."
Could it be that you are cultivating the Five Thunder Body Forging Technique
For the Five Thunder Body Refining Technique.
He also has quite a bit of understanding.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
That martial arts manual is quite unique and extremely difficult to master.
Shen Changqing said: "It can be considered that I gained some benefits from the Five Thunder Forging Body Art."
We just chatted for a bit.
He then bid farewell to Xun Qu and came to the Slay Demon Hall.
>
When one's external energy was cultivated to a high level, the consumed energy was the purest kind and could be replenished simply through food.
Therefore, the exchanged pills.
...are similar to satiety pills, essence pills, etc.
Similar efficacy pills.
There are some in the Demon Division of Po Shan Town, although they aren't called by the same name, they have a similar effect.
Moreover, because this kind of pill is not very effective and there are still a lot of stockpiles, the exchange price is also not high.
> After exchanging a batch of elixir.
Then Shen Changqing returned to his residence.
"The medicinal herbs are ready, it's time to break through!"
Looking at the many pills in front of him, he was just about to swallow a bottle when his hand suddenly stopped.
Wait a minute!
Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!
Shen Changqing thought of something.
That is it.
If he were to improve his Shenxiao Golden Body within the Zhenmo Division, it would inevitably attract heavenly thunder once again. At that time, I'm afraid something would have to be destroyed.
"You can't break through within the Demon Suppression Division; you need to find a spacious and deserted place."
Matter concerning Heaven's Thunder.
This content is empty.
He had almost forgotten.
>
After fusing with the Shenxiao Golden Body, this martial art differs greatly from its original form.
First.
While other martial arts are divided into levels, the Shenxiao Golden Body is divided into ranks.
The perfectly complete Shenxiao Golden Body has a total of ten stages.
After the fusion, although it has only reached the first stage, the martial artist's physical body has already reached the level comparable to that of a Grandmaster.
Tenth Stage Completion.
It can even break through the barriers of Grand Masters and enter another level.
Regarding that level.
Shen Changqing was not yet very familiar with it, and there were no records on the Shenxiao Gold itself.
However.
From existing memory.
Every breakthrough of the Shenxiao Golden Body will attract a heavenly thunder strike. It borrows the power of the heavenly thunder to temper the physique, nourish the physical Qi and blood, and further transform and strengthen it.
That's all.
It has some similarities to the Five Thunder Casting Body Technique.
But strictly speaking, it is several times stronger than the Five Thunder Casting Body Technique.
By invoking the power of Heavenly Thunder, one forges their body, imbuing their Qi and blood, as well as their flesh and bones, with the properties of Heavenly Thunder. This is even more vigorous and yang than the strength of Qi and Blood possessed by the Great Sun Golden Body.
Not only that.
Because it comes with the attribute of Heavenly Thunder.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Both attack and defense are somewhat stronger than those of an ordinary Grandmaster.
Although I am currently half a step away from being a Grandmaster, what I truly lack is in the spirit and soul. In other words, in terms of my physical body, I am not inferior to a Grandmaster-level expert.
Besides, the Shenxiao Jin Body is already incredibly powerful by nature. Most Grand Masters relying solely on their physical strength wouldn't necessarily be my match.
Shen Changqing has a general understanding of himself.
If you say.
Here is the translation of your request. Please note that since you only want the content translated and not the HTML tags, I've left those as they are: >>Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Before achieving the Divine Lightning Golden Body, one would only be comparable to an average mid-level demon.
Then, after fusing the Shenxiao Golden Body.
He had a premonition.
Even high-ranking demon lords could fight on equal terms.
This will return the following:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Thus transformed.
It's just an average, mediocre existence.
“It’s a pity, the Shenxiao Golden Body can’t be further integrated for now. Otherwise, if I continuously used martial arts integration, perhaps I could forcibly raise my strength without any increase in level.”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing shook his head with some regret.
After fusing the Shenxiao Golden Body, he received a cryptic message from the panel.
Please let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!
That is——
To merge the Shenxiao Golden Body again, there is one necessary prerequisite.
>
Only after this martial art has reached a state of completion can it be integrated with martial arts of the same level.
Otherwise.
It is no longer possible to merge them.
When you first get the panel, it has no prompts.
But this time, it's a transformation.
It was as if a hidden function had been developed for the panel. As long as you focused your mind on one interface, you could receive some basic information in a mysterious way.
Just like the follow-up integration issues of Shenxiao Golden Body.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
However.
Although Shen Xiaogujin's body couldn't be fused for now, this attempt was very satisfactory to Shen Changqing.
The physical body directly enters the Grandmaster stage.
> Once the three-headed demon arrives, it's possible that a soul could be directly nurtured.
Back then.
Even if he were a true Grandmaster.
That way.
With its own strength, it will once again see an explosive growth.
After all—
Although Shen Changqing felt he could contend with high-ranking demons in his current state as a half-step Grandmaster, he couldn't be 100% certain about the specifics.
>It could be that even the soul undergoes a successful transformation.
Then there is enough confidence.
Make a decision.
He also had no plans to break through at the Demon Suppression Division.
Glancing at Tian Kui lying in front of him, Shen Changqing stretched out his finger and directly squeezed out a drop of fresh blood.
As the blood appeared, a powerful aura rose within the small courtyard.
That aura.
Here's the translation, keeping all HTML tags as they are:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
It's just like a martial artist at the innate level, fully mobilizing their power.
"Woooo!"
Looking at the golden blood, faintly wrapped in lightning, a yearning shone in Tian Kui's round eyes.
Here you go!
With a flick of his finger, Shen Changqing sent that drop of blood flying toward Tian Kui.
Suddenly.
This text is already in English. Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!
Tian Kui opened his mouth and swallowed the blood.
Next.
A powerful electric current erupted from its body, causing its normally docile fur to stand on end.
At once.
Tian Kui's entire body was trembling slightly, as if he couldn't bear this power.
But.
However, Shen Changqing did not lend a hand, nor did he show any anxious expression on his face.
He had a spiritual connection with Tian Kui, having frequently fed him blood.
From the induction.
The other party didn't seem to mind.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
It's just that the blood power after the breakthrough is too strong, and it takes some time to digest.
“The transformation of the physical body to the Grandmaster level, a single drop of blood can suppress ordinary congenital cultivators. It's no longer a problem at all. If it uses essence blood, even a Master can be directly suppressed!”
The flesh undergoes a metamorphosis.
It's perfectly normal for one's qi and blood energy to increase.
In the past.
A single drop of blood is, at most, equivalent to half a step towards the level of a master.
But now.
One drop of blood.
Shen Changqing was confident that he could suppress all martial artists below the peak of a master.
Let Tian Kui silently absorb the power of fresh blood.
He then briefly explained.
"I'm going to a different place to break through. You stay quiet here and don't leave the yard half a step until I return!"
Tian Kui closed his eyes and did not answer.
But Shen Changqing knew clearly that the other party had already found out.
Then.
He left the Demon Suppression Division with a bundle of medicinal pills.
Outside the city of Pushan.
Most places are remote forests seldom visited by people.
The imperial court only built roads for people to travel on where necessary. In other places, they didn't make many changes.
Therefore.
This ensured that the situation outside of Pushan City remained one of high mountains and dense forests.
Shen Changqing was not too picky. He simply found a small hill that wasn't too high or low, and it wasn't too far from Po Mountain City. Then he sat down cross-legged and began the process of breaking through.
The medicine is placed down.
He took out one bottle and swallowed it whole.
As he digested the power of the elixir, his mind sank into the palm-sized golden plate, landing upon the surface of the Shenxiao Gold.
A thought arose.
That number seemed to have been triggered, and 300 points of kill value disappeared.
Immediately.
The first-grade inscription behind the Shenxiao Golden Body has now become a second-grade one.
But.
The anticipated powerful consumption did not arrive, instead the surrounding heaven and earth's spiritual energy surged towards him. In the sky above, thunderclouds rolled and in a matter of moments, they directly struck down.
Boom!
Thunderbolts struck incessantly, completely engulfing the small hilltop.
A tremendous tremor, along with the aura of Lei Gang.
This caused all the birds and beasts nearby to be greatly frightened and scatter in all directions.
Meanwhile.
>
Even the people inside Pushan City were drawn to its attention by this vast wave.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Here we go again!"
Xun Qu's expression was strange.
Outside Pushan City, the sky thundered ominously. Even inside Pushan City, one could hear it clearly.
He didn't need to doubt it; he knew instantly that Shen Changqing was the one responsible for this commotion.
Here is the translation of your content:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
As for why it was outside PoShan City, rather than inside the Demon Suppressing Division.
That's it.
There is also a general guess about Xunqu's.
It's just that the first commotion was too big, so to avoid affecting the Demon Suppression Division, we chose a different location.
It's just.
Once a bolt of heavenly thunder strikes, it could still be said to be a feeling of enlightenment in martial arts. But now that the second bolt of heavenly thunder has struck, things are not so simple.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
It is obvious.
Shen Changqing was cultivating a very powerful martial art.
...and this martial art.
Every time one cultivates, they must provoke heavenly thunder to descend.
However.
Xun Qu did not have much curiosity about this kind of martial arts.
Though the cultivation process may appear grand and impressive, the risks involved are equally significant.
It's just like the Five Thunder Body Refining Technique.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
This was originally a powerful martial art from a large faction.
Later.
All the powerful cultivators of that major faction died under the Heavenly Thunder of the Five Thunders Forging Body Art.
In the end, that great faction was utterly unremarkable.
Therefore.
Any martial art, if it has obvious drawbacks, is not necessarily a good thing.
Just like this now.
The martial arts that provoke heaven's thunder are powerful and imposing.
Except for Shen Changqing, if others practiced cultivation, they would most likely die.
Looking at the thunder outside the city.
Xun Qu glanced at them deeply, but did not intervene.
If the other party leaves on their own accord, they must have a plan.
I got involved too much myself.
Not necessarily a good thing.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
"Matters of demons and monsters can't be delayed. Half a month's time, please—"
Thinking about demons.
>
Xun Qu shook his head and sighed.
This matter can't be delayed any longer, after all, it involves Shen Changqing, and whether he can successfully ascend to the peak of the Grandmaster realm.
It would be great to have a powerful master at the peak of their abilities as the head.
Then, the situation in Pushan City would improve a lot.
“I didn't expect Shi Mohe's strength to be so powerful. Even the three heads of the Town Demon Division in Nanyou Prefecture couldn't hold up against him. This battle has resulted in a huge loss of face for the Town Demon Division!”
On top of a mountain peak, the leader of the Eternal Life Alliance gazed ahead, where they could clearly see Mount Buddha's Palm.
From the moment they started fighting, he had been paying close attention.
I originally thought.
If the Wanfozong can't withstand the Zhensha Si, then the Eternal Alliance has to secretly support them.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
After all.
It wouldn't be easy for a force to oppose the Demon Suppression Bureau.
All along.
Only the Everlasting Alliance fought alone against the Demon Suppression Division, and only the leader of the Everlasting Alliance knows the immense pressure they endured.
Therefore.
Even if Shi Mohe's attitude was disrespectful, he didn't mind.
But—
When the time for battle truly arrives.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Only the Eternal Alliance Master realized that he had ultimately underestimated Sakya and also underestimated the Wanfo Sect, a sect with a thousand-year history.
There was no release of Mahakala.
The strength of the Buddhist Sect is already considerable.
Now, with the presence of Master Mohā as an immovable pillar, the Wanfo Sect has ascended to unprecedented heights. Even if the three Demonic Suppression Departments of Nanyou Prefecture joined forces, they would be unable to rival it.
He took a long, hard look at Mount Fozhang.
>
The Eternal Alliance Leader turned to face the person in front of him.
Of the three major Demon Suppression Institutes, only the Nanshan City Demon Suppression Institute has managed to maintain its strength. The other two institutes have suffered significant damage.
This is a great opportunity to deal with the Demon Suppression Office. We can't let it slip away.
The Demon Suppression Division's strength in the Southern Depths Prefecture has been greatly weakened, this is the Eternal Alliance's opportunity.
"Where should the leader start"
The demon in Luyue City was killed by Shen Changqing, right
The Eternal Alliance leader's mask hid their expression, but their words sent chills down the black-robed figure's spine.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
After several days of searching at the Demon Suppression Office.
The Robe Man had already found an opportunity to escape and reported the news.
That's all.
Though it can't be helped.
But if the other party really pursues this, he won't die but will definitely lose his skin.
At the end of the day.
For the Eternal Alliance, a master-level warrior is not indispensable.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
Under the gaze of the Eternal Alliance Leader.
The Black Robed Man trembled in fear: "Yes, Shen Changqing's strength is too great. Even if Gu Cang successfully broke through to the demon level, he was still killed by him at an extremely fast speed. That kind of strength makes me suspect it's no weaker than a mid-level demon."
"Being in the Demon Suppression Office is equivalent to being a Marquis who governs the region as a military commander."
"Prefectural Guardian!"
The Eternal Alliance leader murmured.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Then, his eyes flickered.
"If my memory serves me right, Shen Changqing joined the Demon Suppression Division only three years ago!"
Three years.
He is as capable as a commander of the Hòu-jiè rank.
Such talent is beyond the description of genius.
There is no chance as strong as possible.
It's absolutely impossible to grow to this stage.
But.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
As for the Eternal Alliance's leader, what kind of opportunities the other party possesses is no longer important. When someone grows to this point, their opportunities are probably almost depleted.
“Before he even becomes a Garrison Commander, he already possesses the strength of a Marquis-ranked Garrison Commander. If he were to become a Garrison Commander, the Demon Suppression Division would probably have another Eastern Decree!”
It's not a problem to have one more guardian in the Demon Suppression Division.
But if there were one more Eastern edict, then things would be serious.
For so many years.
The demonic clan and the Eternal Alliance have never been able to do anything to the Qin Dynasty.
At the beginning, it was because of the existence of that Qin emperor.
Please provide me with the text you would like me to translate. I'm ready!
When Emperor Qin grew old, another edict from the East appeared.
Although, in the Eternal Alliance Lord's eyes, Dongfang Zuo was far inferior to Qin Huang, the battle at the former capital had exceeded his expectations.
The head of the Imperial Demon Suppression Bureau.
This is a further breakthrough.
Then wait for the strength.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
A single Eternal Alliance is already insurmountable, even the demon clan behind it would find it difficult to deal with.
Luckily.
The Eastern Edict remained in the capital city, acting as an unmoving pillar of stability and refusing to leave easily.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Otherwise.
With such a powerful figure leaving the capital, they would be enough to sweep across the nine provinces of Qin.
“One Eastern Decree is enough, we don’t need a second one. With the losses at Po Shan City, Ji Tianlu should send Shen Changqing back. If that's the case, then let’s start from Po Shan City!”
The Eternal Alliance leader's tone was flat.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
When Shen Changqing first started gaining fame, he didn't pay too much attention to this person.
After all, no matter how talented a person is, if they haven't grown to a certain level, they are just ants.
However.
Shen Changqing, time and again, exerted influence on the Eternal Life Alliance. The leader of the Eternal Life Alliance therefore had the idea of getting rid of him.
And so it goes to this day.
>
The other party's strength has actually grown to this level.
If this continues, it will undoubtedly be another Eastern Edict.
Even.
It is possible that Oriental Decree might be even more frightening.
You know.
Even if it were an imperial decree from the East, at their age, they wouldn't be this powerful.
When Shen Changqing truly grows up.
Now it has grown up.
Here is the translated text:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If it's truly ignored, it will inevitably threaten the existence of the Everlasting Alliance in the future.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
When the Zhen Mo Si (Demon Suppression Division) in Nan You Fu hadn't suffered significant losses, the leader of the Eternal Life Alliance hadn't considered attacking Shen Changqing.
But now.
It's already an opportunity.
Poshan City's strength had been severely weakened, which happened to coincide with the Eternal Alliance's entry into Nanyou Mansion.
Once the Broken Mountain City is breached and the Demon Suppression Division branch is eradicated, the Nan You Prefecture will inevitably fall into turmoil, creating greater convenience for the Eternal Life Alliance.
> The killing of Shen Changqing.
It's just an attachment.
Hearing this, the cloaked man lowered his head and remained silent.
>
What kind of decisions are none of his business.
Inside the Eternal Alliance.
It can be said in one word.
Only this leader has the authority to make any decisions.
Then.
The Eternal Alliance Master then said, "Spread my order and increase the pressure on the other two Demon Suppression Squads. Don't let them notice our movements. As for the matter of Po Shan City, I will handle it myself."
"Everything obeys the leader's orders!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The hooded man bowed his head and replied respectfully.
Go away, don't let the Demon Suppression Division notice anything unusual. By the time they realize something is wrong, Broken Mountain City will already be in ruins!
The Eternal Alliance leader waved his hand simply.
The robed man immediately retreated.
Immediately.
Please note that the content within the "s void!"Shen Changqing looked at the turbulent void, and for a moment, he felt an urge to follow it into the boundless emptiness.But.He still gave up on that idea.The current situation is no longer as...
