Chapter 34: The old guy exploded with gold coins?
Soul?
True spirit?
Exploding gold coins?
Xu Chong's eyes became fierce and he slapped him fiercely.
Either don't take action, or if you do, do it with all your strength.
Zhou Ze already knew a lot about him, and he couldn't accept even the slightest possibility of it leaking out.
However, his palm hit the air completely, without any feedback from contact with any real object.
Xu Chong stopped and looked again, but there was no trace of the ball of light.
"Disappeared……"
"I saw it clearly. It was definitely not an illusion."
"What on earth is that?"
Xu Chong frowned and thought, and suddenly an idea came to his mind, and he quickly called up the panel.
【Name: Xu Chong】
[Realm: Ninth Level of Awakening]
[Righteous Dharma: Right Yang Power (Transcendent into Saint)]
[Rule: Immortality (consumes 10,000 spiritual energy to activate)]
[Spiritual Source: 3]
I've been staying in the county government office for the past half month, and a little bit of spiritual energy has been generated. Adding the one point that I couldn't use before, it should be two points.
But now it’s 3!
So...the ball of light the size of a grain of rice just now is the embodiment of the spiritual source!
"Killing a warrior will drop spiritual energy!"
Xu Chong's eyes lit up, then he frowned again, "Why is there only 1 o'clock?"
"Zhou Ze has reached the eighth level of enlightenment."
“Isn’t this too little?”
Xu Chong was unwilling to give up, so he kicked Zhou Ze with his foot, then squatted down and slapped him everywhere, and finally turned Zhou Ze over.
Half a while passed, and still no new ball of light floated out.
After some thought, Xu Chong came to his senses and had to accept reality.
His breakthrough was achieved instantly thanks to the golden finger, which saved him a lot of time on studying and practicing, and naturally consumed more spiritual energy.
However, Zhou Ze's cultivation relied more on himself, and he did not absorb much spiritual energy in the county government office, so naturally the drops were less.
That makes sense.
"But then again..."
Xu Chong's mind moved slightly, and he thought of another question, "Since the spiritual source can be materialized and plundered, can I draw out my own spiritual source in return?"
Do it when you think of it.
Immediately, Xu Chong spread his palms in front of him and closed his eyes.
Time passes by every second.
Not long after, a ball of light the size of a grain of rice suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Then came the second, and the third.
Xu Chong opened his eyes and looked at the three balls of light floating in his palms, his heart full of surprise.
If the spiritual source can be extracted, it means it can be given to others!
He could use this opportunity to train a large number of assassins and form his own secret force to ensure his indefinite immortality.
"No...it's still missing a little bit."
Xu Chong shook his head and sighed, "There is no way to avoid the obstacles of knowledge and understanding."
There is no way to circumvent the obstacles of knowledge and views, so we can only select a few loyal people from the civilians to train, and mention martial arts when we need them. This is similar to the method of raising martial slaves, which is too limited.
As for selecting people from official households, the risk is too great and it cannot be done easily.
"Forget it, let's put this aside for now and talk about it later."
Xu Chong clenched his fist and looked at the panel, "At least there is an unexpected surprise."
With the addition of Zhou Ze’s drop, the plus sign after Zhengyang Jin appeared again!
This means that as long as he is willing, he can immediately become a Tongmai realm warrior.
Wu Wenjing struggled all his life but could not reach the ninth level of enlightenment, and Zhou Ze had only reached the eighth level after half a lifetime of accumulation. How long had it been since he traveled through time?
Just over half a year.
"As expected, God rewards hard work."
"As long as you work hard enough, you will definitely gain more."
“So, add me!”
Xu Chong’s consciousness condensed into a bundle, ready to fall on the plus sign.
However, the three words "Zheng Yang Jin" made him interrupt his actions in time.
"no!"
“I can’t add it now.”
Xu Chong suppressed his impulse and slowly calmed down, "I am already the strongest person in Canglong County. It doesn't matter whether I break through Tongmai or not."
In fact, his biggest weakness is not his strength, but the limitation of his identity.
Without enough contributions, he will never be able to expose his strength openly.
No matter how strong you are, it won’t work.
There is another point.
Now that he has reached the ninth level of enlightenment, he needs to expend most of his energy to suppress the Zhengyang Energy. If he were to break through the meridians, he could not guarantee that he could continue to conceal the majesty attached to the Zhengyang Energy.
"Dog is more powerful than Daqing, it's really a headache!"
Xu Chong cursed.
This is worse than the imperial court, where there are restrictions and classes everywhere, making the noble time travelers extremely suffocated.
Helplessly, he could only collect his thoughts and start cleaning up the traces.
But a mere traitor is not worth spending too much time on .
The bloodstains were wiped off and the body was buried under the loquat tree in the yard.
It can be done in a cup of tea.
"Tsk tsk tsk, ten thousand taels, a bounty of ten thousand taels, but it was used as fertilizer..."
"I used such expensive fertilizer. If you don't produce more fruits next year, I will chop you up and use you as firewood."
Xu Chong patted the tree trunk and leisurely returned to the yamen.
…
…
Two and a half months later.
"Sir, there are many Blood Robe Guards outside, asking to see the person in charge. Please go out and take a look!"
The gatekeeper came in a panic to report.
The three words "Bloody Guards" were not a secret. After the last incident, all the yamen staff remembered this special organization.
"Blood Robe Guard?"
Xu Chong slowly opened his eyes, with a calm look in his eyes.
In fact, he realized something was wrong a month ago.
Although Canglong County is still so peaceful, it is a little too peaceful!
The new county magistrate has not yet arrived.
You have to know that this is not the ancient times of the past. If a poor person wanted to become an official, he would have to spend more than half a year on the road.
The county magistrate of Daqing must be at least at the ninth level of enlightenment. Even if he had to rely on walking to take up the post, he should have arrived long ago.
But it just isn't there.
The imperial court seemed to have completely forgotten the existence of Canglong County. It neither sent anyone nor issued any documents.
Obviously, something big must have happened.
Unfortunately, Xu Chong had no one in the court and was cut off from the news, so there was no way to find out. The only thing he could do was to add more people to the city defense and patrol.
Even if it doesn't help, it's better than nothing.
This made him feel like a stone was weighing on his heart.
Until now.
Xu Chong stood up from his seat and asked, "How many people are there?"
"There are more than a hundred riders!"
The doorman's tongue was trembling.
Xu Chong's heart sank.
One hundred Blood-Clothed Guards meant that there was at least one centurion and two general flag bearers among them.
The general flag is the main force, what about the centurions?
Damn it…it’s time to start acting again.
Xu Chong cursed inwardly and walked out quickly.
At the gate of the county government office.
More than a hundred Blood-Clothed Guards, dressed in bright clothes and riding horses, with indifferent expressions, lined up to block the gate.
One hundred men and one hundred horses, but not a single sound was made.
There was no whispering, not even a snort or the stamp of horses' hooves.
There is a terrifying oppressive force in the silence.
The government officials did not even have the courage to stand in front of the square formation. They all hid aside, feeling uneasy.
Xu Chong walked out of the gate, clasped his fists and said loudly: "I am Xu Chong, the prefect of Canglong County. May I ask what brings you here?"
"Are you the current head of the county government?"
A blood-stained robe guard in the middle spoke. The pattern on his blood-stained robe was exactly the same as Fu Yuanlong's. It was a general flag.
"Exactly."
Xu Chong nodded.
"Our captain wants to see you."
The general looked at Xu Chong again and raised the whip in his hand.
Crash.
More than a hundred riders moved in unison, splitting up to leave a small path.
At the end of the trail, a man turned his horse around and slowly moved forward.
Fu Yuanlong?!
Xu Chong's pupils shrank sharply.
