Chapter 18: The arrival of Wu’an army

"What kind of treasure is this Yuan Mizhu?!" Shen Zhui practiced for a moment and then opened his eyes in surprise.

Not long after his breakthrough, the period of explosive growth had already passed in the past ten days. The subsequent training was all water grinding techniques, making it difficult to detect progress.

But now, after just one cycle, I can clearly feel that my total energy has increased a little, and it has become more pure at the same time.

"As expected, he is indeed the supreme being in this land. It is really unfathomable." Shen Zhui sighed with emotion.

When he met Wang Lung before, he just felt that Wang Lung was countless times stronger than him.

But Wei Wenhe gave him the same feeling as an ordinary person, feeling nothing at all.

Obviously the county magistrate cannot be an ordinary person, which means that the other party's strength far exceeds his.

………………

With ten days left, Shen Zhui concentrated on practicing the "Blood Burning" technique.

With the help of the treasure Yuan Nizhu, his cultivation has greatly improved. Sixteen vitality essences have already been cultivated in his body. Even this Yuan Nizhu will transmit a magical power to continuously polish and condense the essence of vitality in his body. .

A born soul has a lifespan of two hundred years. But the warriors of the day after tomorrow don't live more than a hundred years.

If you want to break through to the innate realm, the vitality in your body must undergo fundamental changes.

Generally speaking, only when the acquired peak is reached and the vitality nourishes the body to the limit, it will slowly accumulate and condense until it finally undergoes a qualitative change.

But this Yuan Mizhu continuously nourishes the body without delaying the vitality, and at the same time allows the vitality to start condensing now, which is obviously much better than the normal method of cultivating to the acquired peak.

This is equivalent to preparing for promotion to innate one step in advance.

………………

Another ten days passed, and on the morning of the tenth day, Shen Zhui's detention period was up.

"Suosuo~" The sound of the chained door opening came.

Scar-faced He Jiu walked in together with Zhao Hu. This time, Zhao Hu was ordered to come to release Shen Zhui, and he also brought a new set of clothes.

Ninth-class waist card, silver-scaled soft armor, and a set of clean clothes. As for the original weapon, the iron ruler, it needed to be remade because Shen Zhui had broken through to the acquired ninth level.

Shen Zhui was not polite, took the things and went to the special bathroom to wash up. According to Scar's words, get rid of bad luck.

"Brother Shen, it's time to go." He Jiu said respectfully. He had to be respectful and ask the county minister to issue a gag order. Obviously, he didn't value Shen Zhui in an ordinary way.

"Brother Scar, I really can't bear to leave you here." Shen Zhui walked out in high spirits and teased.

In this month, he broke through the ninth level of acquired heaven, united ruler, law, heaven and man, and was rewarded with Yuan Nizhu by the county magistrate, which indeed brought him good luck.

"Then will you sit down for a while?" He Jiu looked serious.

"No, let's forget it." Shen Zhui waved his hand and walked out with a smile.

"Haha." He Jiu and Zhao Hu both smiled.

After leaving the county jail, Shen Zhui returned home.

His adoptive father, Shen Shan, has long recovered from his injuries. Since he now only needs to listen to the orders of the county magistrate and Squad Leader Wang, when there are no orders, Shen Zhui is also happy to have some free time. He can stay with his adoptive father at home and practice his skills as soon as possible. Return to the realm of unity between man and nature.

……………………

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and the first snow of winter finally began to fall in Heyuan County.

"Swish, swish, swish~" In the courtyard, Shen Zhui was only wearing a single coat, holding a stainless steel sword in his right hand and a round shield in his left hand, waving it constantly.

The courtyard was full of sword lights, bringing up gusts of wind and snow. Shen Zhui's figure became faster and faster, and the snowflakes flying everywhere gradually became orderly, spinning around Shen Zhui.

"Huh~" Shen Zhui put away the knife, his whole body was steaming, he looked at the snowflakes around him, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Sure enough, after reaching the realm of unity between man and nature, the moves on the road are completely different from those of my predecessors. I switched to using this steel sword to create my own moves, which are more suitable for my own strength."

A few days ago, Shen Zhui decided to change the moves in the ninth level of Iron Ruler to make it more suitable for him.

As for changing a ruler into a knife, Shen Zhui actually had an idea in prison.

After the time of enlightenment, in the process of trying to return to the realm of unity between heaven and man...

He vaguely felt that he must make changes to the original moves and create his own moves.

Using a knife is more appropriate.

Removing the side branches on both sides of the iron ruler and replacing it with a simple steel knife is not only more suitable for my fierce style, but also makes it easier to feel the mysterious fluctuations during practice.

When he reached this state, there was not much difference between using a knife and a ruler, but using a knife was more conducive to understanding the realm of unity between man and nature. Shen Zhui was also happy to listen to his inner thoughts.

So as early as in the cell, he asked Zhao Hu to help him replace his double iron rulers with stainless steel swords and bucklers.

Now he has finally returned to the realm of harmony between man and nature, and has created his own sword technique.

"I used double iron rulers before. Although they were very powerful and capable of both offense and defense, they were used for two purposes after all."

"Now, I only need to get a little familiar with the shield to achieve the previous defensive effect, and I can focus more on my sword skills."

Having just mastered his sword skills, Shen Zhui felt more and more that his decision was correct.

In fact, he had sensed something was wrong before, but he just hadn't fully understood "The Nine Layers of the Iron Ruler", so of course he wouldn't have discovered it.

It's completely different now. His understanding of techniques has reached perfection, and the experience of his predecessors has no further effect on him, so he naturally has to improve on his own.

"Ten days in prison, and another half month after I came out, my self-created sword technique finally helped me return to the realm of unity between man and nature. Since it was created in the first snow of winter, that sword technique is called " Luoxue Knife Technique"."

"And the first move of the Luoxue sword technique..." Shen Zhui smiled.

"Zhan Cang!"

For many days, Shen Zhui had used the old man surnamed Cang as his imaginary enemy, and now that he was new to the swordsmanship, he felt heroic.

I want to cut off the head of the innate warrior surnamed Cang with this sword of my own!

Just when Shen Zhui was deep in thought, suddenly——

Buzz!

A silver waistband on Shen Zhui's waist suddenly vibrated!

I saw a few lines of writing appearing on the smooth, palm-sized waistband.

"The county magistrate has ordered you to come to the Wu Ban Hall quickly!"

"Huh?" After taking a look at the summons badge, Shen Zhui immediately understood that this was Wang Long, the squad leader, summoning him.

………………

County government office, Wubanfang main hall.

When Shen caught up, there were already a dozen Houtian warriors waiting in the hall.

"Brother Hu, what's going on?" Shen Zhui asked Zhao Hu quietly.

"I've just arrived, but with so many people here, there must be a serious case!" Zhao Hu said in a deep voice.

"Let's go and ask." Shen Zhui was also a little excited. Wubanfang is the most powerful force under the county leader. There are only a hundred Houtian warriors in total.

Among them, there are only about thirty people above the eighth level the day after tomorrow, and there are only ten people at the ninth level the day after tomorrow, including Shen Zhui.

Now most of them are here!

"What's going on, does anyone know?" As soon as the two entered the hall, they quickly asked someone to inquire.

"I've just arrived, so I don't know. It's just that there may be a big case coming."

"Yes, it may be a case involving an innate warrior, otherwise it would be impossible to dispatch so many people!"

Everyone speculated on the purpose of this call.

"Is he really an innate warrior?" Shen Zhui's heart tightened. Although he had reached the state of 'harmony between man and nature', he also created a sword technique to kill the innate warrior.

But he himself also understood that unless the innate warrior stood and let himself cut, it would be too difficult to kill an innate master who could control the air for a short period of time!

An innate warrior has a strong physical body, perfect strength, and has body-protecting aura, and can control the air for a short period of time...

Want to kill? It’s difficult!

"The class leader is here!"

"Quiet, here we come!"

…………

Not long after, Wang Long walked in.

Following him was a handsome man in green clothes with fair skin.

When the two people came in, the palace door closed with a bang.

"Brothers!" Wang Long, the team leader, stood on the high platform of the hall, looked at the crowd below, and said in a deep voice:

"I summoned everyone here today to cooperate with Wu'an Army to do a major event."

As soon as these words came out, the people below suddenly became tense!

"Wu'an Army! He is actually from Wu'an Army. It is said that Wu'an Army's requirements for joining the army are at least the seventh level or above. Judging from the polite appearance of the squad leader, this person is at least a squad leader who can control a hundred people. This requires an innate master to hold this position. !”

The Wu'an Army claims to have tens of thousands of innate warriors, and is an absolute behemoth!

"This must be a major case!" Shen Zhui was excited.

"Master Lin, please!" Wang Long stretched out his hand respectfully.

"Thank you, Team Leader Wang." The man in green bowed slightly and spoke softly.

As soon as this man spoke, Shen Zhui frowned. This man's voice was soft and ethereal, not like a powerful warrior at all.

Could it be... that he is a Qi practitioner who practices Taoism? !

"Everyone, the prisoner arrested this time is a Qi Practitioner in the Inspiration Realm." This handsome young man surnamed Lin didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.

"The appearance of this person..." The handsome young man surnamed Lin waved his hand, and a disc suddenly appeared in his hand, and then——

Buzz!

A mirror-like water curtain appeared out of thin air in mid-air.

The water curtain mirror is extremely stable and clear, and a figure with pointed ears, a hooked nose, and an overall sinister appearance appears on it.

Taoism!

It is indeed a real Qi practitioner!

"This man is a traitor to our Wu'an Army! We learned that he is hiding in a villa near Heyuan City."

"His level is equivalent to that of an innate master. Naturally, we will take action in arresting people and fighting. You only need to form groups of small and five, guard the various areas of the villa, and assist from the side. If you find a thief, stop him for a moment and call out loudly. "

"In order to avoid leaking the news, I would like to ask you all to stay in this hall from now on."

"yes!"

……………………

In the main hall of the Wu class, Taoist surnamed Lin and class leader Wang Long have already left.

There were only fifteen acquired warriors left, waiting for follow-up orders in the hall.

"He is actually a Qi Practitioner in the Inspiration Realm, and judging from this battle, his strength is probably stronger than the average innate warrior." Shen Zhui felt that the case was not simple.

A real Qi practitioner is different from a martial artist.

Warriors are divided into acquired and innate. The fundamental difference lies in the true energy in the body.

Acquired warriors have Yuan Qi running in their bodies, while innate warriors have higher quality Xiantian Qi running in their bodies. Find the bookstore www.zhaｏshuyuan.com

But Qi Lianzhenren has innate true Qi in his body from the very beginning!

Real Qi practitioners are stronger than martial artists and even rarer.

Because the threshold is higher!

First of all, to have outstanding qualifications, you must have a good foundation.

Secondly, someone needs to be guided from an early age to preserve the trace of innate innocence that remains from the mother’s womb. If it is discovered late, the innate true energy will gradually dissipate as the age increases and the body is polluted by the world.

Through hard training, everyone can become an acquired warrior.

But not everyone can become a real Qi practitioner.

But once you embark on the path of Qi training, as long as you are guided by someone, you can keep a trace of the innate true energy in your body, and control the innate true energy in your body to make it grow and grow continuously.

This is the first realm of Qi training - the realm of inspiration.

"At least the middle stage of inspiration, maybe even the late stage of inspiration. If it's the late stage of inspiration, it will be a big trouble. Once the squad leader and the Wu'an Army fail to control it, we may not be able to resist..."

Shen Zhui did not expect that the prisoner's strength was in the early stages of inspiration. Because if it is the early stage of inspiration, the true energy in the body is still very weak. Releasing one or two small spells may drain the body's true energy.

Obviously, there is no need to work so hard.

It must be the middle stage of inspiration, or even the later stage!

………………

After a while, Wang Long came back, but his face was a little ugly.

He announced a piece of news, which immediately made everyone present clamor, and Shen Zhui's heart skipped a beat.

"The strength of the prisoner this time cannot be underestimated. In addition to our county government sending people to assist in the encirclement and suppression, the Wu'an Army will also invite other wealthy families in the city to send an innate master to join the battle."
