Slaughter: 7

"Unbeaten Golden Body reached the tenth layer!"

Shen Changqing sat motionless in his seat, his surging qi and blood was like a terrifying beast roaring furiously.

After a long time.

The boiling blood gradually subsided.

Draw the Cold Moon Sword.

Shen Changqing lightly drew his palm across his own hand. The blade sliced through, leaving only a chilling sensation. When he looked again, there were no wounds on his palm, let alone any blood.

“The Cold Moon Blade, capable of cutting through steel like mud, is now unable to break through my defenses.”

He thought to himself.

Next.

Qi surged, Leng Yue Dao slashed with force.

A sharp pain came, and his palm was instantly cut open.

Fresh blood trickled down the wound, but it didn't last long. The bleeding stopped, and under Shen Changqing's gaze, it began to scab over and heal. There was a slight itch at the site of the wound.

"Using true qi and the Cold Moon Blade together is enough to kill a congenital martial artist. Such an attack has only just broken through the invincible golden body's defenses, so my current physical defense, even without using gang qi, would be unbreakable by anyone below the congenital level."

And the healing speed of the wound was also much faster than before.

As long as it's not a severe injury, it doesn't really need medication and can heal on its own in a short time.

As for the changes in his body, Shen Changqing was very satisfied.

Although dozens of points of killing value only increased the Heavenly Martial Qi by one level, the rest were all smashed into the Invincible Golden Body. It seemed that the strength increase was not much.

However.

>

After reaching this state, the Indestructible Golden Body's buff is quite remarkable.

With an undefeated golden body of ten layers, one can stand invincible below the innate realm.

Then what about the invincible golden body of fifteen layers

Shen Changqing was looking forward to the time when the undefeated golden body would be complete, and how strong his physical defense would become.

At the same time.

When the physical body grew stronger, the dantian also expanded along with it.

Originally, the true qi that filled the dantian occupied almost the entire space. Now, it only took up about 90% of the dantian's capacity. Compared to before, the dantian had undoubtedly grown much larger.

Furthermore.

Shen Changqing tried to compress his true qi with his mind. Although his dantian was still under pressure, he didn't feel the same sensation that it would burst at any moment as before.

"The dantian expands, capable of holding more true Qi."

“At the same time, the dantian’s own strength has also increased. It is no longer as easy to be shattered by zhenqi as it was at the beginning. In this way, it might be possible to further compress zhenqi in the future.”

Before this.

Shen Changqing always thought that internal strength was the foundation of a martial artist, and external skills were only used to lay the groundwork for internal strength.

But now, he kind of wants to overturn his previous conclusions.

Inner strength is the foundation!

External skill is also fundamentally the same!

Without a powerful physique, it's impossible to contain enough true qi. Therefore, for martial artists to advance, it is undoubtedly a very difficult task.

Immediately.

Sheng Changqing withdrew his mind from the panel and looked at the desk before him, a wry smile appearing on his face.

"It's fast, but it consumes a lot too!"

On the table, the bottles and jars had been emptied almost completely.

Among them, the most consumed is the satiety pill.

Every successive upgrade to the Invincible Golden Body consumes a lot of resources. Now, I only have one bottle of satiety pill left. The rest were all consumed during the previous upgrade.

As for the Qixue Dan, there are only two bottles left.

Putting away three undamaged bottles of elixir, Shen Changqing also put away the white jade bottle that had contained the Qi and Blood Pill.

And the rest.

He was treated like trash and thrown into the garbage bin.

This is the time.

Sunlight streamed in through the mosquito net.

When Shen Changqing stood up and pushed open the window, he was immediately dazzled by the sun shining in.

From the beginning of slaying demons to the later breakthrough, it took quite some time.

> It's been quite a while.

One night has already passed.

Push open the door.

Shen Changqing walked downstairs and sat down at an empty table on the second floor. The sharp-eyed young waiter immediately came up to him.

"May I ask what you would like to eat"

Just bring some food.

Shen Changqing said lightly, then from the menu provided by the shop boy, he ordered a few side dishes and a pot of small wine, and nothing else.

According to past practice, he would not come here to eat.

Although Tianyilou is quite famous in Jincheng, it has the satiation pill and doesn't need to waste time eating.

Things are just different now.

With little of the satiety pill remaining, Shen Changqing felt it was wise to keep some for later use.

"Please wait a moment, sir. I'll get this ready for you right away."

The second boy retreats.

Soon, someone brought the wine up.

Shen Changqing poured himself a glass and drank while looking down from the second floor, listening to the conversations of other people in the tavern.

"Last night I heard there were strange and horrible screams coming from the east side of town, something to do with demons or evil spirits. Have you guys heard anything about it"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“I heard that, it's not just the east side of the city, but also the west and south sides have similar screams.”

"It's strange to say, those cries were not something a normal person would make, but there were no reports of any deaths lately. It's really peculiar."

Several young scholars, dressed in scholar's robes, were sitting around a table, drinking wine and chatting animatedly.

Hearing this, others at the other tables couldn't help but chime in.

"Speaking of which, I live in the eastern part of the city. The screams last night were truly terrifying. I suspect it was a master from the imperial court, slaying demons!"

Upon hearing this.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Many people nodded in agreement.

"Very likely!"

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

“Well, in the past, demons and monsters caused havoc, killing people every time. Like at Wanhu Tower, almost a thousand people died all at once. This time, no one died at all. It doesn't even seem like it was an attack by demons.”

"Hey, with so many people just dying in front of Jincheng, the imperial court must be furious. The Black Tiger Army, stationed outside the city, marching in is already a clear sign."

"Good killing, it's best to kill all the demons and monsters in the world, so that everything will be clean."

When discussing demons, everyone's attitude is surprisingly consistent.

>

As for them.

Throughout history, countless humans have perished at the hands of demons. To completely eradicate demons would undoubtedly be a cause for great celebration.

Shén Chángqīng smiled slightly and finished the wine in his cup.

Not long after.

The dishes were brought up one by one.

After finishing his meal and drinks, Shen Changqing paid the bill and then left Tianyi Building.

The atmosphere among the townspeople has become even more heavy now.

Yesterday's events put a kind of invisible pressure on many people.

>

However.

He didn't think much about it.

No matter what, I went to several places last night and killed almost all the demons and monsters. Even if there are still hidden demons in the city, if they have means of concealing their sinister aura and do not intentionally cause chaos, it would be difficult to find them.

That's all.

Shen Changqing also had no choice, he pulled them out one by one.

After hearing about the master's realm, one comprehends the true meaning of martial arts, and there will be a transformation in spirit. At that time, perception will become even stronger.

At that time, finding the hidden demons and monsters should be much easier.

Walking down the street, he looked back at the memories in his mind.

Thinking about something.

Shen Changqing's senses were always at their peak, searching for any hidden demons in the city.

Unfortunately.

I turned almost the entire city of Jin over, but I didn't find any trace of evil energy.

At this point.

Shen Changqing couldn't help but believe that perhaps the demons within Jin City had truly been eradicated by him.

>

If there are no demons, then it's time to go back!

Go back!

Of course, it wasn't back to the Heaven-Returning Building, but back to the Demon Suppression Division.

This mission's main objective is to investigate the truth behind the Eternal Alliance strongholds, and if possible, eliminate any confirmed strongholds.

This is a placeholder.

Two things.

Shen Changqing had completed it, and he had even exceeded expectations.

>

As for the other mission, it was centered around protecting Xu Yi and his group. Even if it failed.

Though he felt a little disappointed, he didn't think too much about it.

Damn it.

There's nothing that can save it.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Moreover, the fact that Xu Yi and his companions were killed on their way back to the Demon Suppression Division from Jin City is beyond anyone's control.

Therefore.

If he's killed, he's killed. There's no way to change that.

Just then.

Liu Jian came face to face.

"Lord Shen!"

When he saw Shen Changqing, he was the first to greet him with a fist salute.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Liu the Head Constable."

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

Shen Changqing paused and nodded.

When he ran into Liu Jian, Liu Jian didn't think it was just a coincidence.

Jincheng isn't very big, but it's not small either. Running into each other like this was obviously intentional.

"Liu the constable came to look for me, is there something wrong"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Mr. Shen, you have piercing insight!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Liu Jian first flattered him, then gave a polite but awkward smile.

"Mr. Nie wishes to invite Mr. Shen to the yamen for a matter,

I wonder if it would be convenient for Mr. Shen"

"That's fine."

Nie Xu invited him, and Shen Changqing nodded silently in agreement.

>

Anyway, since most people in Jin Cheng have already left, it would be just right to go to the government office one last time before leaving.

Immediately.

He and Liu Jian walked towards the yamen.

Upon arriving at the gate of the yamen, the two guards saw Liu Jian and Shen Changqing. They did not dare to intercept them in any way but respectfully allowed the two to enter.

Here is the English translation:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The two of them went past the outer hall and headed straight for the inner hall.

As Shen Changqing strode inside, Nie Xu just happened to see him and couldn't help but get up from his chair with a warm smile on his face.

“Lord Shen has finally arrived, but made this official wait quite a while!”

>

"Lord Nie, you summoned me in such haste. Could something have happened in Jin City again"
