Chapter 196: You Say Those Demons Can Be Killed?
Chapter 196: You Say Those Demons Can Be Killed?
Qingzhou's Celestial Pride, Qin Zheng!
The Great Jin Dynasty's 19th National Guardian Saint!
When these two pieces of information came together, they formed an unstoppable storm that swept through the entire capital in an instant.
Countless citizens of the capital, from high-ranking officials to commoners, were all shocked by this news.
After all, not long ago, they were still discussing the authenticity of this person's battle against a Demon Clan Saint as a Half-Step Martial Saint.
But now, not much time has passed, and the other party has successfully advanced to the Martial Saint realm!
This time, no one doubted the authenticity of this matter.
After all, the nine bell chimes that reverberated throughout the capital that day still lingered faintly in their ears.
Martial Prodigy!
Heavenly Genius!
Fortune's Child!
For this person, all the citizens of the capital, in addition to being shocked, used all kinds of legendary terms to describe him.
But this was not enough to showcase the awe they felt towards this newly ascended National Guardian Saint.
Especially when everyone learned that this new National Guardian Saint was not even ten years old, the awe in their hearts was unparalleled.
A National Guardian Saint in his teens was an unprecedented existence since the establishment of the Great Jin Dynasty!
Therefore, the four characters 'Qingzhou Qin Zheng' began to take on a legendary hue in the capital.
All sorts of legends and strange tales began to spread inadvertently.
Some said that this person was a celestial immortal who had reincarnated, endured tribulations, and would one day return to the immortal realm.
Some said that this person was a natural-born Martial Saint, mastering any martial skill and technique with ease, and possessing unparalleled prowess in all martial arts.
Some said that this person had obtained a celestial connection, and through it, his physical body and divine soul were cleansed, granting him such invincible talent.
Some said...
In any case, all sorts of legends began to circulate in the capital and spread outward at an astonishing speed.
As the focal point of the capital's turmoil, Qin Zheng's figure slowly appeared in the depths of a grand hall.
"Has Qin Zheng, the National Guardian, finished his observation?"
Just as he had arrived, the two Array Guardians stood on either side of the array and respectfully spoke to Qin Zheng.
"En."
Qin Zheng nodded, then turned his gaze to the two of them and said, "May I ask you two seniors, how many days have passed?"
After observing the Enlightenment Divine Stele, his mind and spirit were immersed, making it difficult to perceive the passage of time.
For him, it still felt like only a day had passed.
"It has been seventeen days since Qin Zheng entered the Teleportation Array."
The slightly plump one replied at this moment.
"Thank you."
Qin Zheng nodded, then turned his gaze to the already open door.
There, a figure wearing a Dragon Robe was waiting.
"Qin Zheng, the National Guardian."
Just as Qin Zheng was about to leave, the two Array Guardians suddenly spoke.
"What is it?"
Qin Zheng turned to look at them.
At this moment, the two hesitated for a moment, then continued, "The Enlightenment Divine Stele has little effect on ordinary Martial Saints, so there is a limit of three observations."
"If... Qin Zheng, the National Guardian, continues to observe the Enlightenment Divine Stele and still gains tremendous insights, this limit can be lifted."
Upon hearing this, Qin Zheng's eyebrows rose, and joy immediately appeared in his eyes.
"Good!"
"Thank you, seniors!"
After saying this, Qin Zheng bowed to the two of them.
The two of them quickly returned the salute.
Then, Qin Zheng took a step and left the hall.
At this moment, the two of them also saw the figure in the Dragon Robe outside the door, and they saluted again.
After the two pillars of the Great Jin Dynasty left, the vermillion doors slowly closed, and the two of them finally looked at each other, no longer suppressing the astonishment in their eyes.
"Such an enormous price to pay!"
After a long while, the two spoke in unison, expressing their shock.
Great Jin Dynasty, Capital.
Lian Prince's Mansion.
In the garden, by the lake, two figures strolled slowly.
"This prince's mansion is so vast that it's probably no smaller than several cities in Qingzhou."
Qin Zheng looked at the scene before him and spoke with some amazement.
He had thought that the Ta Wu Academy was large because of its special status, as it was the central hub of the Great Jin's martial arts, overseeing all martial institutions.
But who would have thought that the prince's mansion of the Great Jin Dynasty would be so grand! The mansion's garden had mountains and lakes, a level of luxury beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Wang Furlong smiled and didn't respond. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "Brother Qin, did you gain anything from observing the Divine Stele?"
Qin Zheng shook his head and reluctantly replied, "The power of the Divine Stele can't enhance the Primordial Spirit or create Energy Points. It only improved some of my physical cultivation methods."
"Why didn't you tell me about this before?"
Hearing this, Wang Furlong smiled and said, "Seeing your anticipation, I didn't want to dampen your enthusiasm. So, I let you experience it for yourself."
Qin Zheng also smiled lightly at this.
At this moment, his Primordial Spirit was still weak, and the thirty-three Energy Points were dim.
However, within his physical body, there were forty-eight Energy Points shining like stars!
The Primordial Dragon Unextinguishable Body!
Under the influence of the power of the Divine Stele, Qin Zheng could open one Energy Point in his physical body for every strand of Spirit Energy he consumed.
The ten Spirit Qi Pills given by Ta Wu Academy, he had used one on his Primordial Spirit, leaving nine remaining.
In recent days, by slaying the Demon Clan Saints, he could consume Virtue to gain Spirit Energy from the Demon Cores.
Additionally, in Gao Xinghang's storage bag, there were also some Spirit Qi Pills.
Using up all these resources, Qin Zheng successfully opened forty-eight Energy Points in his Primordial Dragon Unextinguishable Body!
According to the characteristics of the Primordial Dragon Unextinguishable Body, twelve Energy Points represent one realm, so forty-eight Energy Points are equivalent to four realms!
In other words, at this moment, Qin Zheng, relying solely on his physical body, had already surpassed the realm of a Novice Martial Saint and was comparable to an Intermediate Martial Saint!
A tremendous increase of nearly tenfold!
Qin Zheng's smile at this moment was very genuine.
With his strength skyrocketing, he only needed to find the right opportunity to slay demons, collect Virtue, and use it to enhance the Primordial Limitless Seal.
Once the thirty-six Energy Points were slightly perfected, his Primordial Spirit's injuries should recover!
Moreover, the two Array Guardians of Ta Wu Academy had also promised him that as long as he obtained the opportunity to observe the Divine Stele, he could continue observing it without restrictions.
This was the best way for him to enhance his physical body!
Slay demons, collect Virtue, and enhance the Primordial Limitless Seal!
Slay demons, collect Demon Cores, and enhance the Primordial Dragon Unextinguishable Body!
As long as there were demons, he could improve both aspects simultaneously and quickly become stronger!
At this moment, Qin Zheng couldn't help but want to leave the Great Jin Dynasty and venture into the Demon Caverns to slay powerful demons.
Seeing his expression, Wang Furlong thought he was sighing in resignation, so he sighed lightly and his face gradually became grave.
"The imperial decree has arrived."
Wang Furlong spoke softly.
"Although Brother Qin has been promoted to Martial Saint and fought valiantly against the Demon Clan Saints, he ultimately killed Gao Xinghang and a National Guardian Saint of the Great Jin Dynasty."
"This is an extremely significant matter for the court and the Gao Clan."
"So, the voices in the court are quite intense."
"Therefore, Brother Qin's grand ceremony has been canceled, and the court will send you to guard Xuan and Jing Provinces."
"These two provinces are one of the most critical areas of the Great Jin Dynasty, with over ten Demon Caverns lurking beyond the border."
Wang Furlong's voice grew heavier, and he also felt a sense of injustice for Qin Zheng.
After all, how could a newly promoted Novice Martial Saint possibly guard such a critical area?
Before this, Xuan and Jing Provinces had always been guarded by a Middle-ranked Martial Saint from the Gao Clan.
He spoke without noticing the gradually brightening light in Qin Zheng's eyes.
"Alas..."
"However, once you're there, Brother Qin, you'll still have many opportunities to leave the Great Jin Dynasty and slay demons."
Wang Furlong sighed lightly, then smiled bitterly with a sense of helplessness.
He didn't realize that after he said this, the light in Qin Zheng's eyes had reached its zenith.
When he turned to look at Qin Zheng, he saw the excitement in his eyes as Qin Zheng eagerly asked, "You mean I can slay demons there?"
Transition chapters are difficult to write, and I fear readers might consider them filler. After deleting and editing, I've written about 7,500 characters, but only published 5,500. I apologize for the delay!
