Chapter 116: Expedient Measures

  So, although Luo Changlao had the initial cultivation of the 9th level of the Law of Respect, his actual strength was still not as good as that of Huang Jindou, who was at the same level. Furthermore, the allocation of quotas in the Elder Council implied a struggle and contention between the various major families.

  Tiro Elder can only be a leisurely elder, going to the big camp to teach young Bamom magic. As for Tiro Elder's affairs, Liu Yu still has some interest in it, and he privately inquired about relevant news many times. Now he has a good grasp of the basic situation of this former teacher.

  Liu Yu's concern for Tuoluo Elder was also very simple, his situation had a few similarities with Tuoluo Elder.

  Liu Yu still clearly remembered when he was ten years old and participated in the innate talent test of the Bei Meng tribe. He was a dual-element affinity of earth and fire: his elemental affinity was average, but his spiritual power was above average. Among all the Golden Beimongs who took the test that time, he was the only one whose spiritual power ranking was higher than his elemental affinity.

  In addition, among the other Golden Kamuy members who participated in the test, except for Bukarin, Moro and Ivan, the affinity of the other elements was also generally mediocre.

  So Liu Yu felt at that time, his qualifications were a bit special. And now he is at a turning point with special qualifications, this turning point requires him to make a choice about the direction of his future cultivation.

  According to the military system of the Beastman Kingdom, next year's spring is the time for rotating officers. However, given the current situation on the front lines, it is certain that the war between the kingdom and the Empire of Fanord will continue into next spring. In such a situation, the Military Affairs Department of the kingdom usually advances the rotation of officers to within ten days after the Beast God Festival.

  Liu Yu's military achievements were already enough to make him a team guard, and he also had the strength of a sixth-level great demon commander. His cultivation had also reached the potential requirements for being an officer. Moreover, with many places on the front lines experiencing intense battles, it was common for soldiers or officers to die in battle, so vacancies due to war would inevitably arise.

  So now he can definitely say that the Military Affairs Department will promote him to an officer next year, as for whether it is a fire guard or a group guard, it depends on the vacancy and competition of military officers.

  Of course, in Liu Yu's memory, the Mongolian military officers he had seen who specialized in magic were extremely rare. Because all mid-to-high-level officers were promoted from low-level officers one by one. Those with only sixth-rank strength, such as Huo Wei and Tuan Wei, had to go to the battlefield to fight frequently.

  In that close combat, the cultivation of a 6th rank Battle Commander was obviously more practical than that of a 6th rank Great Demon Magician. This is also one of the real reasons why most Bamons with both magic and martial arts abilities in the Bamon clan would choose to major in battle energy and minor in magic.

  So every time Liu Yu thought that he was a 6th-tier great mage, reaching the military's latent requirements for officers, he had a feeling of stealing the beam and changing the pillar.

  Although it was his own innate talent, he also knew that as a low-ranking military officer who had to lead by example and had fought many battles, the cultivation of Dou Qi at the same level was more practical than magic before reaching the 7th rank.

  So Liu Yu, who wanted to be a military officer, decided to make some flexible changes to his cultivation path after several days of contemplation. He would slightly relax his spiritual power cultivation and focus on cultivating Dou Qi with all his might, in order to reach the sixth rank of Dou Shuai as soon as possible and have more self-protection abilities on the battlefield.

  Afterwards he will switch back to majoring in Spiritual Power, striving to reach the standard of a 7th tier Magister within three years and doing his utmost to achieve late-stage 7th tier as soon as possible.

  Because then he had never forgotten that, still in the Desa mountain range Blood Refining Camp, commanding the Cannibal Demon tribe to develop the Desa mountain range for the Beastman Kingdom, Cannibal Demon Dou Huang Kao Er Gou.

  Liu Yu clearly remembered his agreement with Kao Er and his fourth ethnic plan.

  Kao'er's strength in the late stage of the Imperial Court was a truly remarkable combat power. Although he was seriously injured, Liu Yu was confident that he had already found a way to cure Kao'er. Once he reached the late stage of the 7th rank magic master, he would immediately form a master-slave contract with Kao'er, something Liu Yu had been looking forward to for a long time.

  On a hillside not far behind the Emal Fortress, Liu Yu sat cross-legged facing east, holding a small golden Buddha statue about an inch in size. Feeling the weight of the heirloom, a hint of a smile flashed across his face.

  "If I don't reach the late stage of 7th rank magic master in three years, then you'll have to stay in the Desa Mountains for a few more years, Korga, haha." Liu Yu let out a laugh that seemed like he had just come up with a sinister plan.

  He was well aware that it was still possible for him to advance from a 6th-tier Grand Magister to a 7th-tier Archmage within the next three years, after all, he had the Legacy of the Ancients in his hands. However, reaching the later stages of a 7th-tier Archmage was simply impossible.

  So he told Kao Ge from the beginning that he would go find him in five years, not promising to make a deal with him in five years. At first, he was deceived by that big fat guy for more than a year, and now he also played him back, which is also considered as getting it back.

  He let out a light breath, and Liu Yu turned his head to look at the situation around him. After inexplicably meeting Da Wei last time, Liu Yu decided to change mountains to cultivate, he didn't want to one day finish cultivating and turn back to find this "Seventh Grandfather" standing behind him again.

  Thinking of Da Wei, Liu Yu had a few points of admiration for this genius.

  This elder of the Council of Three, has always been a person with an icy face and a heart dedicated to cultivation. In Liu Yu's memory, although Wudi belongs to the Weilin family, he rarely participates in family matters. He also does not participate in the daily management of the kingdom within the Council of Elders, only appearing when the kingdom needs him to serve as a military elder, acting as a high-level fighter.

  But he has won the respect of the entire Bimon tribe. The Bimon tribe's Douzun, Fazun, no matter what identity or strength, are very polite to him. He holds the position of one of the three elders in the Council of Elders and never interferes with anything, nor has anyone ever spoken a word of dissatisfaction about him.

  As for the younger generation of powerful families like Liu Yu, Bo Nan and Fei Te, they basically had no contact with Da Wei, only exchanging greetings according to clan rules when they met.

  Liu Yu, who was also concerned about the operation mode of the Council of Elders, knew that Wudaiwei was currently the only Huangjindi with a 9th-level Douzun later-stage cultivation among the Mongolian tribes, apart from Keluo Wang, Da Zhanglao and Er Zhanglao.

  He relied on his own strong strength to suppress the strong of various families and climbed up to the position of the three elders. Moreover, he had a cultivation of nine stages in the later period at the age of fifty, and Liu Yu believed that the possibility of Wang Da Wei becoming a holy stage strongman was extremely high. At that time, he would be a figure like the guardian god of the kingdom, and which family dared not to respect him.

  "Strength, indeed, is what ultimately decides everything." Liu Yu let out a soft sigh of emotion. The continent of Balderich was a place where the pursuit of personal strength was paramount, and this was reflected in the primary way of survival for all intelligent beings.

  "There is a way and there is power." With this phrase in mind, Liu Yu knew that for himself, pursuing personal strength was his long-term unchanging idea, this was his "way".

  At the same time, making adjustments to one's own cultivation direction in a short period of time is a kind of "expedient", which is his temporary measure.

  After finding that there was no movement around him, Liu Yu adjusted his posture and took a deep breath, starting to quietly circulate the fighting energy within his body. Soon, sitting cross-legged, Liu Yu felt a flow of air with warmth and heaviness flowing out from the Dan Tian area below his lower abdomen.

  Liu Yu knew that this was the Broken Hu Dou Qi he had cultivated, and it had already been mobilized from his dantian's qihai. After leaving Liu Yu's dantian, this flow of energy slowly moved like a crawling insect from the tendons on his right leg to his feet.

  This flow of air passing through every part of his body brought Liu Yu a warm feeling. After nearly half an hour, this slowly moving flow finally completed a cycle in the main meridians of Liu Yu's whole body.

  Liu Yu's eyes, which were naturally closed, didn't open, but a few happy smiles appeared on his face. He felt the flow of air from his dantian was stronger than one or two months ago, and the speed of the flow also increased slightly.

  Feeling the improvement in his own aura cultivation, Liu Yu suddenly remembered the feeling he had when he first started cultivating his aura. At that time, under Ma Lan's coercion, with only one level of Dou Wei strength, he could only cultivate a single thread-like aura flow, which circulated within his body for a full circle, taking up more than an hour to dissipate.

  He slightly distracted this air flow and it would quickly disperse. As a result, Malan kicked him several times.

  "Hehe." As soon as he thought of this, Liu Yu naturally opened his eyes and looked at his lower abdomen with expectation in his eyes.

  When he was just reborn, Gaya told him a little about the principles of Dou Qi. At that time, he already knew that in this world, although there were no acupoints, there was still the concept of meridians, which surprised him for a while.

  Gaia then told him that if he cultivated his Dou Qi to an extremely high level, he would be able to see the situation within his own body, especially the state of his Dantian and Qi Hai. For example, Gaia, who was already at the 8th rank of Dou Huang, could see the state of his own Dantian and Qi Hai.

  "Introspection" - this was a plot that Liu Yu had only seen in martial arts novels, never thinking that one day he might also be able to achieve it.

  "I've been reborn... hmm..." Liu Yu, who had intended to lament the changing world, suddenly remembered that his rebirth had already occurred many years ago. He had transformed from a poor wretch struck by lightning into a tall and robust warrior of the Bei Mon clan, and Liu Yu believed he would become even stronger in the future.

  "Time flies so fast, it's already been over a decade." Liu Yu muttered to himself after a moment.
