Chapter Ten A year will be complete
ses, then the Qingfeng clan can openly keep 20% of their faith, so that strong members within the clan can break through.>Although the Qingfeng clan is a small one, their number of spirits is certainl...Liu Chang's death.
This made Shen Changqing thoroughly understand that the death rate in Zhen Mo Si wasn't a joke.
The smell of blood, which had previously been somewhat distant from him, now clung to him relentlessly.
The Demon Suppression Division.
Other exorcists would die, and Liu Chang would die too.

Although the context is not weak, in the face of life and death, it has no right to decide anything.
For a while.
Shen Changqing's stress increased.
After returning from the Demon Suppression Prison, he didn't go to the library anymore. He went straight back to his residence and began a new round of cultivation in seclusion.
ten months.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing entered the library no fewer than fifty or sixty times.
All the information I need to see, and all the martial arts techniques I need to learn, are already deeply ingrained in my memory.
The rest.
Then there is no research value.
Unless it can be placed in the second level of the library.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But the second floor of the library is only accessible to official demon slayers. Unofficial demon slayers can only wander around on the first floor.
He possessed thirteen martial arts masters, Pure Yang Gong, Seven Kills swordsmanship, and Iron Sand Palm. In Shen Changqing's view, this was already quite enough.
After all, one person has limited energy.
Being able to major in several martial arts at the same time already takes up all of one's time.
...The Thirteen Protectors have already broken through to an unprecedented fifteenth level of cultivation. Subsequently, there is no way to rely on their own ascetic practice, they can only break through by relying on killing values.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
This way.
Shen Changqing only needed to cultivate three martial arts.
... among.
>
He mainly practices the Pure Yang Gong.
>
Without cultivating Qi, practicing martial arts is all in vain.
True Qi is the foundation of one's realm, and it is also the source of power for eliminating demons.
If one's true energy is strong enough, even with bare hands, they can kill others.
Conversely.
The Seven Kills Saber Technique and the Iron Sand Palm are both auxiliary means in disguise.
Within two months, Pure Yang Gong must be raised to the seventh level, preferably the eighth. The Seven Killing Sword Technique has almost reached its second level; it's difficult to improve further without actual combat experience.
As for the Iron Sand Palm, there is still some room for improvement.
Shen Changqing made a plan for his future cultivation.
First, we need to break through the Pure Yang Gong, and then we can try to break through the Iron Sand Palm.
>
The Seven-Kills Sword Technique.
It is a martial art that emphasizes practical combat, divided into seven levels. Each level adds considerable power.
But without the foundation of actual combat, it is already not easy to reach the second level by relying on one's own hard training.
As for the Iron Sand Palm, Shen Changqing was indeed more confident about his improvement.
After making a decision.
He stayed in his small courtyard, not venturing out unless absolutely necessary.
In the first month, Jiang Zuo also came a few times.
The purpose was simply to issue the task, and the two did not engage in much conversation.
Shen Changqing was unfamiliar with Jiang Zuo, and he wasn't a particularly outgoing person, so he wouldn't take the initiative to chat with the other party.
The new Head of the Huangbu Exorcism Academy, it seems, is also like this.
Therefore.
Both of them were not very talkative.
It's just that the number of tasks released later increased, and they only became familiar with each other.
Take advantage of the familiarity.
Shen Changqing also specifically inquired about Liu Chang's cause of death, and then got the answer from Jiang Zuo's mouth.
Not only that.
From Jiang Zuo's mouth, he also received some other information.
"Extremely eerie!"
Shen Changqing murmured softly.
The one who killed Liu Chang was a terrifyingly powerful creature, known as a "sha-ji gui." A "sha-ji gui" surpasses even a "yuan-ji gui," representing a far greater and more formidable existence.
The year 382 of the Qin Dynasty, February.
In a time of strange and chaotic upheaval, a massive natural disaster occurred, causing widespread suffering.
To stabilize the situation.
The Demon Suppression Division dispatched numerous demon hunters to quell the calamities across the land. In a short time, many strange occurrences were suppressed, preventing the natural disasters from spreading further.
Although the natural disaster has subsided, the Demon Suppression Division also paid a great price.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Many exorcists met their demise at the hands of strange monsters, Liu Chang being one of them.
Therefore.
The Demon Suppression Division had a huge vacancy, and it had to recruit suitable people from all over the place to start filling it again.
Shen Changqing thought that over the past period of time, the large number of unfamiliar faces in Huangbu's Demon Removal Institute had already made him understand.
“If even the capital city's Demonic Suppression Bureau has suffered such losses, then the other regional Demonic Suppression Bureaus must have lost even more!” Shen Changqing sighed.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
The Great Qin Town Demon Division.
“鎮魔司” is a collective term for all branches of the Demon Suppression Division.
Here is the English translation of your provided text:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
In fact.
Besides the Demon Suppression Office in the capital, every important prefecture in Great Qin would also establish a Demon Suppression Office to ensure peace and stability.
Because the Qin Dynasty map was vast.
If the Town Demon Division only existed in the capital, it would be impossible to deal with disasters that occurred in various regions in a timely manner.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
... with a devilishly eerie and rapid killing speed.
If it were to be delayed by a day or two, the losses incurred would be immeasurable.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Therefore.
The Qin Dynasty had a Demon Suppression Bureau in every region.
...the local Demon Suppression Offices all take the Capital's Demon Suppression Office as their lead.
From Jiang Zuo's words, Shen Changqing understood the severity of Qin's situation. A bizarre natural disaster had claimed the lives of many demon slayers.
Although he is only an apprentice demon slayer now, it doesn't seem to affect him much.
In fact.
When there is truly no way out.
Even a novice demon slayer has to stand their ground.
The house destroyed, the eggs are broken.
When things get truly bizarre, to the point of being unstoppable, Shen Changqing felt he wouldn't have any way out.
"Oh..."
Sighing, Shen Changqing sank his heart and began a new round of cultivation.
His pure yang skill has already broken through to the seventh layer.
In other words.
Shen Changqing's realm also officially crossed from the middle stage of Tongmai to the late stage of Tongmai.
Don't underestimate the significance of this small jump in levels.
When he broke through, Shen Changqing discovered that the pure yang qi of the seventh layer was much more powerful than that of the sixth.
Not only that.
Even in terms of quality, there have been significant changes.
>
Previously, when he struck a wooden stake with his pure yang zhenqi, he could only leave behind a charred handprint. But now, with the same pure yang zhenqi, he could almost burn through the wooden stake.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If it were flesh and blood.
With a strike of pure Yang energy, Shen Changqing believed that unless the Thirteen Protectors had perfected their cultivation, they would either be killed or severely injured.
As someone who has almost been in the Demon Suppression Division for a year.
He also figured out many things.
Take the Thirteen Taibao's kung fu practice as an example. There were many people who practiced it, but none of them actually managed to bring this martial art to its completion.
Because the cultivation of external skills is complete, it takes a long time and cannot be achieved in just one year.
Many apprentice demon slayers use the Thirteen Protectors' Horizontal Training Method to build their foundation. Around the same time, they directly switch cultivation methods to break through the meridian-opening realm.
If one cannot attain perfection, one will never truly understand the countless benefits that thirteen guardians, after achieving mastery through rigorous training, can bring.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
However.
If you spend the time wasted on external skills training on cultivating internal skills, you can also achieve considerable gains.
The gains and losses in this, that's entirely up to the individual.
With the Pure Yang Gong breakthrough to the seventh layer, what Shen Changqing needs to do is continue to break through upward.
There's not much time left.
The ninth layer offers no hope.
But to break through the eighth layer, he was somewhat confident.
It will be soon.
A night has passed.
>
The rising sun dispelled all darkness.
Shen Changqing walked to the yard specially, looking at the direction where the sun was rising, and according to the route of operation of the Pure Yang Gong, he began a new round of cultivation.
"Whew! Inhale!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The chest rises and falls in a regular rhythm.
Suddenly.
There was a faint purple movement at the horizon.
Shen Changqing opened his mouth and directly swallowed the purple qi.
Purple Qi enters the abdomen!
Immediately, the pure Yang energy trembled.
>
The operation of the Pure Yang Scripture suddenly intensified, as if it had received a powerful stimulus.
Boom boom boom!!
True qi flows within the meridians, and faintly, there is the sound of a river surging, then rushing towards a certain location.
Let's go!
Here we go!
Every impact caused Shen Changqing's face to twist slightly, as if enduring extreme pain, so much so that his body trembled lightly.
As time goes on.
His forehead was already beaded with sweat.
Half an hour passed, Shen Changqing's body suddenly trembled, as if something had shattered, emitting a faint sound.
>Next.
The sound grew louder and louder, like a raging river.
"Whew!"
Shen Changqing opened his tightly closed eyes.
>
Breakthrough!
After much struggle, I finally broke through to the eighth level of Pure Yang Gong.
>Reached this realm.
He was just one step away from reaching his limit.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
The successful breakthrough allowed Shen Changqing's long-suppressed heart to feel a great deal lighter.
"Having reached the eighth layer of Pure Yang Gong, with my meridians almost fully opened, coupled with fifteen layers of the Thirteen Guardians Cross-Training, my overall strength is considered top tier among those in the Meridian Opening realm. The only thing lacking is combat experience!"
When one's external skills are perfected, the most obvious benefit is a significant increase in defense. All aspects of physical fitness also see a linear improvement.
Not to mention.
The Thirteen Taibao's training has exceeded the limits of thirteen layers, breaking through to the realm of fifteen layers.
In conjunction with the Eight Layers of Pure Yang Technique.
Shen Changqing estimated that he had a high probability of being able to defeat warriors at the Tongmai realm.
But an estimate is just an estimate.
There is no actual operation, and it cannot be 100% certain.
Overcoming the elation of a breakthrough, Shen Changqing glanced at his panel.
The Thirteen Taibao trained hard for fifteen levels!
Pure Yang Gong Eight Layers!
The Seven Killing Sword Technique, Second Layer!
Iron Sand Palm, Second Layer!
Among them, the Iron Sand Palm has five layers, which is slightly lower than the seven layers of the Seven Killing Sword Technique. However, the power of martial arts is not determined by the number of layers high or low.
To truly bring the Iron Sand Palm to its fifth level of perfection, it wouldn't necessarily be weaker than the seventh level mastery of the Seven Killing Sword Technique.
It's been about a year.
From having no mastery of any martial arts to now mastering four, his strength is so great that one could even say he has the qualification to sweep through all those in the Tongmai realm.
Shen Changqing was also very satisfied with this.
"A novice demon slayer only has one year of probation. If I remember correctly, it's been over eleven months since I joined the Demon Suppression Division. The next mission will come, and then I'll become a formal demon slayer—"
Thinking about this.
His heart was also filled with passion.ine Abilities throughout the year.Ten years is forty doors.A hundred years is equal to four hundred divine abilities.Even so, if one were to deduce three thousand divine abilities, it would still take...
