he Minghe Realm looked up. The emanating aura sent shivers down the spines of Dongfang Zhao and others. "A powerful being has descended!" "Such a formidable presence."Let me know if you have any other...The thunder roared continuously for several days.
For several days.
The people of Pushan City had grown accustomed to the strange phenomena that occurred between heaven and earth. Although they still held great respect for thunder, they no longer feared it as they did at first.
Anyway, if lightning strikes, it strikes. It's not like it would strike us.
There are people who think that way.
Not only the common folk, but even those in the Jianghu and ordinary members of the Demon Suppression Division didn't pay much attention to it.
When thunder rumbled incessantly.
In the main hall.
Ji Tianlu, who appeared outwardly unremarkable, was listening to the report from those below him.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“In recent days, news from the Baicyun City and Nansha City indicates frequent demonic disturbances, suggesting a possible attack by the Eternal Life Alliance on the Demonic Suppression Bureau. They hope that if we have the manpower available, we could send some personnel to offer support.”
“Send troops, I shall break the mountain city. Now there are no men to give them.”
>
A sickly smile played upon Ji Tianlu's delicate features.
He can barely protect himself now, even if the cities of Shansheng and Baiyue were truly captured by the Eternal Alliance, he might not be able to spare the time to help.
The two parties seeking help should not have turned to the city of Broken Mountain, but rather to the capital.
Upon hearing this.
The people below bowed their heads and did not respond.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Then Ji Tianlu continued, "I heard that in the capital, Minister Yi Ning of the Ministry of Internal Affairs went to Nansha City. With such a powerful figure assisting Yunzun, I believe the problem of stabilizing Nansha City should be no big deal."
As for Yuecheng, Yuan Jidi remained hidden throughout this battle. He suffered the least losses among all of them.
Even if the Eternal Alliance launched a full-scale attack, it wouldn't be so easy to succeed.
Speaking of this.
His expression suddenly changed.
"You said that Yè Yué City and Nán Hǎi City have been quite active with demons and monsters recently, so in our Pò Shān City jurisdiction, have there been any movements from demons and monsters"
Here's the translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Demons are also restless, but not as intensely as the other two parties."
>
He replied truthfully.
Upon hearing this statement.
Ji Tianlu's originally suspended heart slightly relaxed.
He was still worried that only the other two cities had demonic movements, while his own jurisdiction, the Broken Mountain City, remained calm.
If that's the case.
Then the trouble in Poushan City would be huge.
This is the right time.
The more tranquil a place is, the greater the danger it holds.
Since there are demon activity within the jurisdiction of Poshanshan City, the problem will be much smaller.
Then.
Ji Tianlu ordered: "Send an order to people in all cities, pay close attention to the movements of the Everlasting Alliance and demons. Any unusual discoveries need to be reported immediately. In critical situations, prioritize evacuating civilians, and absolutely cannot allow demons to succeed!"
"Yes!"
>
“Go away first!”
"Yes!"
"Wait—"
Just as the other party was about to leave, Ji Tianlu called out to him again.
That man looked puzzled and asked, "Is there anything else the General wants me to do"
"Outside the city, is there any news now"
Ji Tianlu implied something.
Here's the translation of the content within the tags:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Upon hearing this.
The man also understood what the other person was saying.
"Since Elder Shen left the Demon Suppression Division and entered the mountains, there has been incessant thunderbolts striking him. The celestial thunder was so intense that the area was completely enveloped by the forces of heaven and earth. Ordinary people couldn't even approach it."
However, judging from the current situation of frequent thunderstorms, Elder Shen should be safe and sound.
Heaven's Thunder was born from him. If he were to perish beneath the Heavenly Thunder, then the Thunder would dissipate as well.
"Well, I understand."
Ji Tianlu nodded in agreement.
The man bowed and then turned to leave.
"Body forged by heavenly thunder, what kind of martial arts is that Could it really be the Five Thunder Body Tempering Art gone wrong"
Ji Tianlu's face was calm, but his mind was racing.
He also understands the Five Thunder Forging Body Technique.
This martial art is indeed very powerful, but even if it's powerful, it's only relatively speaking.
Someone like Shen Changqing, a powerful cultivator who has reached the peak of physical strength, wouldn't need to rebuild the Five Thunder Body Tempering Technique at all.
To be honest, that's all I have to say.
Even the one who created the Five Thunder Forging Body Art was weaker than him in terms of strength.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
That is so.
Then it's clear that the Five Thunders Forging Body Technique is simply not as powerful as a peak-level master.
Shen Changqing's martial arts cultivation was absolutely stronger than the Five Thunder Body Tempering Technique.
So.
In Ji Tianlu's view.
The possibility of the other party going to cultivate the Five Thunder Body Forging Technique is low.
It's definitely not the Five Thunder Forging Body Technique. In his memory, there doesn't seem to be any other martial art that can summon lightning from the sky.
Nor is there any martial art that could make a peak master linger in seclusion for cultivation.
Unless—
>
“The martial arts he practiced were even more profound than the Five Thunder Body Tempering Technique. The opportunities on Elder Shen’s body were truly astonishing!”
Qi Tianlu sighed.
It is rumored within the Demon Suppression Division that when Shen Changqing entered the Scripture Pavilion and browsed through the Five Thunder Forged Body Technique, he comprehended an even more profound martial art.
That's all.
He scoffed.
To comprehend and create a masterful martial art, for many people, is a lifelong pursuit.
And to create a martial art that could allow a master to reach the pinnacle, one would have to devote oneself to intense cultivation. Not to mention whether or not such a possibility exists, even if it does, it wouldn't be something achievable overnight.
Just a short time spent in the library, and to have such gains is undoubtedly a fairy tale.
As for Ji Tianlu.
This rumor was merely a facade intentionally created by Shen Changqing for the public. In reality, the other party already possessed a powerful martial art.
>However.
>
He didn't think too much about it.
Whether it's martial arts or not, it no longer matters to the garrison commander.
The moment he became the town marshal.
>
Ordinary people's practice of martial arts rarely has any significant effect.
The methods for enhancing the strength of a town guard, they have their own ways.
That's two different paths for warriors.
The original hill is now gone.
After the incessant thunderbolts rained down, the mountains and earth were worn away by that terrifying power, leaving only a deep pit in its wake.
Shen Changqing sat cross-legged at the bottom of the deep pit. Mysterious patterns covered his entire body, and a rich purple thunderous light danced around him as he moved like a dragon.
I don't know how long it had been.
Please note that the original content was empty between the > tags. I have simply returned the closing paragraph tag as you requested.
The lightning in the heavens ceased.
The black clouds have dispersed.
Shen Changqing's tightly closed eyes suddenly flew open, a beam of visible lightning shooting from his eyes and slamming into the stone in front of him.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Boom!!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The stone shattered into pieces, unable to withstand the onslaught of lightning.
>Next.
He calmed his mind and looked at the changes on the panel.
Name: Shen ChangqingPower: Great Qin Demonic Suppression DivisionIdentity: Martial Pavilion ElderRealm: (Fake) GrandmasterSoul: Unborn (70%)
Physical body: Shenxiao Golden Body (Rank 3)
Martial arts: Chi Yang Divine Palm (Level 3), Seven Stars Stepping on Empty Steps (Level 1)
Killings: 123
Divine powers: 0
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
The Shenxiao Golden Body has directly transformed from the first stage to the third stage.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
But because the killing value was insufficient, the number behind Shenxiao Gold’s back had already disappeared at this time.
Kill value dropped to over 100 points and there's no chance of increasing it next time.
>
"Three-tiered Shenxiao Golden Body!"
Shen Changqing stood up, he sank his mind into his own body, everything inside was clear and visible.
Next.
Physical strength surges.
The mysterious lines that were once hidden on his body reappeared.
Lightning interweaves.
Very soon.
It was like a layer of purple robe, draped over its body, making it appear as if a deity had returned to the world.
“Thunderclap Heaven-Shaking Fist! Not bad!”
Shen Changqing lowered his head, looking at his own changes with a faint smile on his face.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Heavenly Thunder, Heavenly Gang!
That was a means bestowed by the Shenxiao Golden Body, activating the power of Heavenly Thunder within the flesh and forming a powerful protective barrier.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Although it is a shield.
But due to the nature of heavenly thunder, it also possesses powerful attack capabilities.
If you say.
The First Heaven-Thunderclap of the Divine Lightning Heavenly Gang can only withstand attacks from ordinary sect masters.
Now, even a peak master of the Three Realms Heavenly Gang Thunder technique wouldn't stand a chance against it.
The premise is.
The physical strength has not been completely depleted.
No power, no matter how great, is infinite. Even Shen Lei Tian Gang is the same.
The power of heavenly thunder within the flesh comes from two sources. One is the power of the heavenly thunderclap that struck during the breakthrough, and the other is the transformation of qi and blood.
That's right!
Qi and blood transform!
The moment Shen Changqing successfully cultivated the Divine Thunder Golden Body, his physical Qi and blood had undergone a transformation.
In the midst of qi and blood.
Naturally, it possesses powerful electric attributes.
This kind of power is the main source of Shen Lei Tian Gang.
In other words.
As long as his qi and blood don't run dry, he can stand still right now, allowing a peak master-level expert to attack him without breaking his defense.
That's not all.
That master at the peak of his power could still be directly struck dead by the rebound force of the Divine Gang Heavenly Thunder.
“Perhaps I am still too conservative. Not only is it the peak of a Grandmaster, even if a Grandmaster at the pinnacle were to make a move, they might not be able to break through the defense of the Divine Thunder Heavenly Array!”
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
Shen Changqing looked at the purple robe on his body, the power surging within it was extremely powerful.
Fortunately, I am the master of this power, otherwise, I would also find it troublesome.
This time's improvement.
He discovered another benefit of the panel after its transformation.
>
That's all.
With the enhancement of external power, you no longer need to prepare a pile of blood food or pills like before to replenish your consumption.
When breakthroughs occur, the heavenly lightning power that is drawn in is the purest form of energy replenishment.
That's it.
This directly saved a lot of trouble.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
As his current realm grows higher and higher, the consumption during breakthroughs becomes increasingly larger. Every time he breaks through, he has to swallow a bunch of things. To be honest, Shen Changqing himself is starting to feel sick.
But things are different now.
Shenxiao Golden Body perfectly solved this problem.
Clenching his fist.
Shen Changqing stared ahead, his black and white eyes seeming to hold a storm brewing within them.
I don't know how my current strength compares to that of the Buddha Shakyamuni. Who is stronger, and who is weaker
The first stage of the Shenxiao Golden Body is a grandmaster, but it is still a fake grandmaster.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But—
He could feel that his current power was much, much stronger than before the breakthrough.
Po Shan City.
Inside the Demon Suppression Division.
In the grand hall, Shen Changqing, who had changed back into his normal clothes, sat in an empty seat and chatted with Ji Tianlu.
"Has Xun Zhenzhou left already"
“Well, escorting demons still requires a personally present Marshal. Otherwise, if something happens, it would be more troublesome.”
Ji Tianlu nodded.
Normally, given the current situation in Poshan City, Xun Qu shouldn't be leaving.
However.
Matters concerning demons and spirits are related to Shen Changqing's own breakthrough.
If there were another top expert from the two major systems, even if we lacked Xun Qu, breaking through Shancheng would be very secure.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
On the contrary.
If Shen Changqing cannot break through, even with Xun Qu remaining here, it would not be a good thing for Poshan City.
The reason is very simple.
One peak-level master from one system and another peak-level master from a different system, could only be considered as reaching the level of a Marshal guarding a territory.
However, even the peak masters of the two major systems, while serving as commanders in the Marquis's garrison, are still considered strong individuals.
Although Xun Qu was the Commandant.
In terms of strength, Hou Jie's threshold hasn't even been touched.
>
In this case.
One garrison commander plus a very weak marquisate garrison commander is far less useful than a single powerful marquisate garrison commander.
Therefore.
Ji Tianlu would rather have Cai Xun depart and bring back some demons from the capital than have him remain in the broken mountain city.
This was his initial idea.
But now—
Looking at Shen Changqing in front of him, whose imposing manner was extraordinary and who he couldn't see through at a glance, Ji Tianlu had some guesses in his heart that even shocked himself.
"Elder Shen, over the past few days, has caused heavenly thunder to descend. This matter can be said to have shaken the entire Po Shan City. When the news spreads, I'm afraid the entire Southern Profound Prefecture will be shaken by it."
He spoke.
He paused, his eyes burning with intensity.
Ji Mo has something he wants to ask. Elder Shen, has he broken through to the Grandmaster realm now
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
This issue is not a random inquiry, but a well-founded one.
Shen Changqing was originally a powerhouse at the peak of the Grandmaster realm, and now he has cultivated a mysterious martial art, causing heavenly thunder to strike for days on end.
To be honest.
>
If his strength didn't improve, Ji Tianlu would absolutely not believe it.
But if strength increases, what realm will the other party reach
After all, the person in front of us had already reached the peak of a master at that time. Although their spiritual system was still lacking in some aspects, it was almost complete.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Under Ji Tianlu's scorching gaze, Shen Changqing neither nodded nor shook his head.
“If I were to simply talk about my realm, I'd say I'm currently at the level of a grandmaster, with one foot already crossed over!”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Hiss!"
Ji Tianlu gasped in shock.
>
Don't be fooled by the other person's nonchalant words. Taking one foot into the realm of a Grandmaster signifies stepping beyond the boundaries of a mere Master.
How many years has it been
Far from it, just to say that in a thousand years, the only one who truly broke through the master realm was Master Maha.
Besides this person.
Don't even talk about surpassing Grandmasters anymore, not even someone who has just set foot in the realm of a Grandmaster. There isn't a single one.
It can be seen.
Please note: The original content you provided was empty. I have left the HTML tags as they were, but there is no text to translate.
How difficult is it for a grandmaster to break through to the level of a supreme master.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
That is precisely why it is like this.
Therefore, before Mahākasyapa appeared in the world, no one knew what the realm above a master was called.
Even.
They were all uncertain if there were truly other realms beyond the Grandmaster level.
Now.
Shen Changqing's one foot stepping into the realm of Grand Master is already astonishingly shocking.
Next.
Ji Tianlu again heard the other meaning in the words, his face slightly startled.
“Elder Shen means to say, without considering one's cultivation level——”
“Without considering realms, common masters would surely not be my opponents.”
Shen Changqing smiled with confidence.
The Third Rank Divine Sky Golden Body gave him a lot of confidence now.
Although I haven't fought Sakyamuni, and I'm uncertain if I could match the strength of that Great Sun Buddha, I am very clear about the changes in my own power.
If we say.
At the moment he just fused into the Godly Thunder Golden Body and stepped into the half-step Grandmaster realm, his own strength was several times stronger than himself at the peak of the Master level.
So now.
When the Shenxiao Golden Body ascended to the third stage.
Although his realm was still that of a half-step Grandmaster, his strength had increased by more than double compared to when he had just merged with the Divine Thunder Golden Body.
Exponential changes.
>
The more we get to the later stages, the greater the increase in strength.
The reason I'm not sure if I can handle Shi Mohe is because Shi Mohe has the record of subduing the three major king-rank guards.
Otherwise.
>
Shen Changqing wouldn't be so conservative in his estimate.
Upon hearing this.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Ji Tianlu was truly shocked.
An ordinary master wouldn't be a match, that concept is saying, even if it was himself, he very well could be Shen Changqing's opponent.
This is a placeholder.
To put it simply.
A Grandmaster is equivalent to a Wang Jie Zhen Shou Shi.
Though he was reluctant to admit it, he also knew that in reality, he was just an ordinary county magistrate.
Among the many regional commanders of the Demon Suppression Division, his strength was not particularly outstanding.
It's mediocre, not good enough to be considered excellent, but still better than the worst.
>
After the shock.
Ji Tianlu just coughed lightly: “Since Elder Shen says so, Ji would like to see for himself.”
His words implied that he didn't quite believe what the other person was saying.
Shen Changqing shook his head slightly.
“Since Ji's defenses are weak, it's best not to try. Otherwise, his injuries might worsen, which would be troublesome.”
"Please rest assured, Elder Shen, Ji has a plan in mind."
This sentence immediately made Ji Tianlu somewhat unhappy.
What does this mean
Even if he is injured now, he's not someone anyone can look down on.
The content is placed inside the Qin Dynasty.
Wang Jie, the military governor, was also a powerful figure among the strong.
Even after being injured, it is not something that ordinary people can withstand.
Regarding Ji Tianlu's persistence.
Shen Changqing didn't refuse again, and he also wanted to see for himself what level his own strength had reached.
“Since General Ji has made his decision, then Mr. Shen will follow suit and die with honor.”
As his words fell.
He got up from his seat and walked straight to the center of the hall.
Then he clasped his hands behind his back, a faint smile playing on his lips.
“General Ji, please!”
"Be careful!"
Here is the English translation:
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
Ji Tianlu wasted no time. Black energy surged from his body, instantly engulfing the main hall in a terrifying aura. The black and white of his eyes subtly turned crimson.
Have not started yet.
The momentum was like a tidal wave.
Shen Changqing's smile on his face slightly restrained.
Even a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
Although the opponent was injured, he was still the Wangjie Town Commander. However, the aura he displayed now was much stronger than when I hadn't integrated the Shenxiao Golden Body.
Let's just say that it was a different time.
This is a placeholder.
He now left without a word, turning and walking away directly.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
But—
When parting with a friend, one should expect to meet them again after three days as a changed person.
>
Although Ji Tianlu's momentum is now vast, it hasn't posed too much of a threat to Shen Changqing.
Suddenly.
Ji Tianlu sprang from his seat, and the atmosphere in the hall surged like a dragon's breath. A sudden gust of wind arose as he unleashed his fury with a powerful palm strike, releasing all his pent-up force.
This palm strike held no mercy whatsoever.
Because he couldn't see through Shen Changqing's strength, and coupled with the other party's confident words, he had already placed the person in front of him on an equal footing in his heart.
> Dealing with such powerful beings.
Even in sparring, one must not be careless.
"Well done!"
Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Feeling the overwhelming power, Shen Changqing burst into laughter. Veins appeared on his body, and rich lightning surged within them.
Heavenly Thunder, Divine General!
He didn't strike, only simply activating the Divine Thunder Heavenly Gang to counter.
The next moment.
Two forces have already clashed fiercely.
Boom—
Lightning cracked, black dissipating.
The air inside the main hall was thick with destruction, like the heavens and earth parting at dawn. First, it plunged into complete darkness, then suddenly illuminated as bright as day.
> Until all sounds had subsided.
Shen Changqing's body had already retreated several steps, with a palm print left on his clothes.
Let's take a look at what Ji Tianlu said.
The other party, at some point, got up and sat back down again.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Half a moment later.
Shen Changqing let out a breath, still smiling: "General Ji has great skill. Shen admires him!"
Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
With that palm strike, the opponent had already broken their own Heavenly Thunder Divine Gang.
But.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
He was very satisfied with this result.
Although Ji Tianlu broke his own Shenlei Tiangang, the remaining power did not cause too much harm to himself.
At this point.
There is no doubt that it confirmed his original guess.
The Thunderclap Celestial Array is indeed capable of withstanding the attacks of a single master at the peak of a system. To break through its defenses, one would need at least the strength of two masters at the peak of their respective systems.
With his injuries, Ji Tianlu's strength fluctuates around this level.
> On the other side.
Ji Tianlu smiled faintly: "Elder Shen's strength is not weak either. With Elder Shen guarding Broken Mountain City, I believe there will be no problems. However, I have something I want to ask."
This is a translation of the content within the > tags. Please note that I have only translated the text and kept the HTML tags as they are.Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
Could Senior Shen's inability to fully break through to the Grandmaster level be related to his mental system
"Not bad."
Shen Changqing nodded.
"If I could also elevate my spiritual system, I should be able to officially enter the realm of Grandmaster."
"I see. It won't be long before the demons arrive, and at that time, our Demon Suppression Division will officially have a Grandmaster. This is indeed something to celebrate. If there's nothing else, Elder Shen, you should return first."
Next, Ji Mo will also focus on healing his injuries in seclusion. As for any matters concerning Po Shan City, I hope Elder Shen can take charge and be responsible for them.
Ji Tianlu said.
Now, Shen Changqing possesses the complete ability to take charge of the situation.
He retreated to recuperate, and Xun Qu was also absent.
Thinking it over, the only person who could truly make this decision is the other party.
Upon hearing this.
Chen Changqing did not refuse: "If there's anywhere I can be of use, Chen will certainly not back down. Then I shall take my leave first."
When he turned and left, the atmosphere in the hall returned to calm.
One breath.
Two breaths.
"Poof!"
Ji Tianlu's face suddenly turned crimson, and a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth. For the first time ever, he uttered a vulgar curse.
"Damn it, I messed up!" bīng can advance autonomously. But to advance alongside one’s master's strength, I have never heard of such a thing.”Weapons capable of advancing autonomously can only be achieved by Dao soldiers.But...
