“……”

  Lin Baiwei thought for a moment, compared to the violent and ruthless means that followed, the arrow shot by Tian Ku was indeed just a "reminder".

  No one present had expected things to go so smoothly.

  Even the inner camp officers responsible for guarding the mountain hadn't reacted to welcome General Shen, the Great General of Subduing Demons, when he had already set foot on the road back to the city.

  "I think you're almost as good as Jiang Shifu..."

  Walking on the road, Lin Baiwei's red lips lightly opened, her mind was a bit distracted, as if she was still immersed in the just-concluded fight and couldn't extricate herself.

  Whether it was a punch that tore apart the bronze bell treasure, or the crimson solidified true meaning of the Taoist sword, as well as that cunning and agile body technique, every single move far surpassed the top martial arts of Qingzhou, and he mastered each one perfectly, making it simply unimaginable.

  Everyone comes from their mother's womb, and yet the gap between people can be terrifyingly huge.

  Shen Yi hesitated for a moment and shook her head: "Still not enough."

  Thinking of the terrifying jade dragon formed by the convergence of Xuanbing Sword Intent that he had seen before, even if the sixth transformation of Xiāo Yāo took away Bailu, he still felt that he had no chance of winning.

  To be able to fight Jiang Qiulian, his physical strength needs to rise by at least one more level in order to withstand that sword intent.

  The demonic martial arts are indeed demonic martial arts. Although the effect is powerful, the consumption of lifespan is really too much, and it's obviously not something for warriors to practice.

  Three thousand years are enough for a strong cultivator in the Condensing Dan realm to be reborn several times, but not enough for a fairy or demon to make a small breakthrough.

  Its biggest advantage is "ceiling".

  Invincible in the same realm, like slaughtering pigs and dogs.

  If you really calculate the cost-effectiveness, it's so bad that it can't be looked at... This is a defect of martial arts itself and has nothing to do with one's innate talent. Even if Qingzhou General or Jiang Qiulian were to practice it, I estimate that by the day they exhaust their lifespan, they may not even be able to enter the door.

  But for Shen Yi, it was actually quite satisfactory.

  After all, his cultivation of human martial arts is not going anywhere fast.

  Of course, there is a very important reason... anyway, it's not one's own life that's being spent.

  The simple word "talent" is a cold and cruel moat, as the boundary increases, this moat will become wider and wider, until it makes people lose the courage to gaze at the distant shore.

  Some people can't break through the initial stage for their entire lives, and those who have reached the Jade Liquid stage are already a powerful force. As for the Condensing Dan stage, among the tens of millions of ordinary people in Qingzhou, there are less than three figures.

  Embracing Danjing requires the assistance of the imperial court, relying on incense and vows to walk the Wu Xian path.

  Even so, there were only more than ten people.

  In the entire Qingzhou, only Jiang Qiu Lan has the hope of breaking through to the next boundary without relying on incense and wishes.

  Shen Yi didn't feel anything in her heart.

  He was clear about his own cognition from head to toe, and as an ordinary person who couldn't be more ordinary, he obtained a rare opportunity that allowed him to make up for his lack of talent with the help of demons and monsters.

  The only thing that can resist the word "talent" is time.

  As long as you kill enough demons and monsters, there is no threshold that can't be crossed.

  "Uh."

  Lin Baiwei found Shen Yi deep in thought, as if she had really taken Jiang Shijie as her imaginary enemy.

  She just spoke out of emotion, and casually gave an example...

  Hesitating for a moment, Lin Baiwei said softly, "After returning, you will be going to the capital, do you want to go home and rest for a while?"

  "Alright." Shen Yi nodded, he also needed a quiet place to sort out his gains.

  Liu Yuquan and He Zhenkui followed closely behind, looking at the fox demon's corpse in their hands, finally understanding why General Chen chose the young man to be the new general of Linjiang Prefecture.

  It can be said that I am completely satisfied, with no regrets at all.

  ……

  Returning to Baiyun County, Lin Baimei pointed to her home, but it was a small, secluded hut.

  Two people stepped into it.

  Lin Baiwei walked to the table, looking at the surface covered with a thin layer of dust. It was on this very table that she had copied out the entire Four Harmony True Scripture, and it was from then on that Shen Yi truly revealed his unbelievable martial arts talent.

  I originally wanted to see if Shen Yi would also have some memories of chasing after me.

  But saw the other party sitting on the bed edge, took out a shiny silver bag, and began to count the spoils.

  One by one, precious medicines and rare minerals were scattered all over the bed.

  It seems that the Qing Yu Bao Jian and the Zhen Hun Zhong are all the treasures of the Fox Demon, which makes Shen Yi a little disappointed. However, thinking about it, it's normal. If there were other things, at that critical moment, the opponent wouldn't be able to hide them either.

  He shook his pocket and wondered: "Why didn't they bring martial arts formulas when they went out?"

  "......" Lin Baiwei helplessly withdrew her gaze: "Probably to prevent situations like this from happening now."

  Shen Yi put the precious medicine back into the storage pouch, which had a much larger space than the silver bell and was itself a treasure.

  Compared with these external objects, he valued the fox demon itself the most.

  A powerful demon with extensive knowledge and a prestigious lineage.

  All sorts of means emerge in an endless stream, dazzling people's eyes.

  Let's take Qingqiu's external alchemy for example.

  Those twelve outer elixirs are all jade-like in appearance, and should be refined into precious artifacts. This is fundamentally different from the heavenly demon's outer elixir, which forms inside the body through the condensation of jade dew.

  Apart from this, in terms of usage, the Tian Yao External Elixir is used as a substitute for the Internal Elixir, stored in the Qi Hai, and the demonic energy is cultivated to merge into the four limbs and hundred bones. Although it will not connect with the major meridians, it also needs to be exerted through the body.

  Qingqiu's external elixir is offered in the void, and has nothing to do with the physical body. It is simply used to store cultivation, and the demonic energy can only be used to control and suppress the Lingyun Bell and other such treasures.

  If necessary, it can even self-destruct and force the enemy to retreat.

  It's clear that the young fox had only heard of the external elixir legend and was actually clueless, but with the help of the Jiaomo, it blindly pondered and came up with the Tianyao Yanluo External Elixir Technique.

  No wonder there are many hidden dangers...

  This thing has nothing to do with Qigong's external elixir at all.

  Now with the grudge of Qingqiu Fox Spirit, when deducing martial arts, at least there won't be too many mistakes.

  Shen Yi fiddled with the silver bright pouch, actually opening the panel.

  Her eyes swept over the two of them with a true intention.

  The previous method of Huo Yao's sword was quite interesting, I wonder if it can help me perfect the true meaning of Baiyun Guan's secret transmission.

  He concentrated his mind and spent a thousand years condensing an elixir, then poured the demon's life span into the Two Instruments of True Intent.

  In the first year, you swallowed the demon crystal and attempted to deduce the true meaning of Yin and Yang.

  Twenty Years of Life Extension

  As the Youmo Shouyuan gradually decreased, countless grievances awakened one after another, and even Bai Lu joined in on the discussion.

  One by one, reminders flooded in with all sorts of strange and weird ideas.

  In the 137th year, the Two Instruments Sword condensed by you hangs in mid-air, with the yin and yang fish slowly rotating. You stare at the sword, deep in thought, while beside your ears are the endless debates of the demons. The Qingqiu Fox Demon looks at the group of demons, as if remembering something, comes to your side and makes a small suggestion.

  A dragon in water, a tiger on a mountain; having both yin and yang properties, it secretly combines the true meaning of dragon and tiger embracing the origin.

  In the one hundred and sixty-second year, with the help of Qingqiu Fox Demon, you successfully sealed Mountain Lord and Jiaomo into the Yin-Yang Fish. You and Qingqiu Fox Demon crouched beside the Dao Sword, observing the changes within it with great interest.

  I took a day off the day before yesterday, because I felt that my condition was problematic and couldn't guarantee quality. The big guys all know that I don't have any drafts stored up, and the continuous 70 days of outputting text has made my brain very numb, and I'm not sensitive to the exciting points anymore. Changing to pulling an all-nighter to find my state, I need to sort out my thoughts.

  I've been writing this book without a break until now, today might be the first time I'm stopping, feeling disappointed, but don't want to hand in something meaningless.

  Give me one night, big brothers.
