Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Most of the buildings in Qianzhou are built on mountains. After all, mountains are not only used as landscapes, but some of them also possess strange powers.

As one of the highest-power departments, the Qianzhou Sky Patrol Department naturally chose a good mountain as its headquarters.

"The two inspectors of Yunzhou are not interested in anything else and are heading straight to Douhun Peak?"

"As expected of someone who can walk through dangerous places..."

Inside the Xuntian Tower, Qianzhou General Yang Jingchu showed an expression of admiration.

Although the 72 states of the Great Zhou were divided into 36 upper and 36 lower states, the strength and status of the chief officials of each department were basically the same and there was not much difference.

And in terms of control, the chief officials of the lower thirty-six states actually have more power.

After all, although there are aristocratic families in the lower states, their foundation is often not that deep and they are relatively easier to control.

However, this is not the case in Qianzhou. Because it is mountainous, the Agriculture Department and the Water Department took away some of the power of the Sky Patrol Department on the grounds of being in charge of mountains and water. In addition, some aristocratic families lived in the mountains and were not under the control of the Sky Patrol Department.

Even some mountains have powerful mountain gods, which cannot be included in their jurisdiction.

Although he was the general of a state, Yang Jingchu sometimes felt that he was restricted everywhere and did not feel as free as being an official in a lower state.

So, he couldn’t refuse the matter of Xianshenxu, so he had to select a few candidates to go.

After all, Qianzhou is located on the edge of Kyoto. Although the royal control is declining, it is not to the extent that it cannot affect the surrounding provinces.

He really didn't want to do such an offensive thing. After all, talented people often had famous teachers or came from prominent families. The Immortal Ruins was really dangerous and it was difficult to gain anything.

But now the appearance of Jiang Yue and the others made him see some hope for a turning point.

They have come from thousands of miles away, even to a dangerous place like Lizhou. If word of this gets out, what will other forces in Qianzhou think?
What's more, the identities of these two people are not ordinary. If people like them are taking risks, how can others keep it to themselves!

This way, his subsequent work would be much easier.

"The Xiazhou Tianjiao came to my Qianzhou to challenge the Douhun Peak. This matter is worth publicizing."

Yang Jingchu pinched his beard, as if he had thought of something, and quickly picked up the token: "Commander Yuan, are there any other people going to Douhun Peak today? Don't stop them, let them see what they have to offer!"

"By the way, are there any noble families interested in conducting trials recently? It would be a good opportunity to have them come and take a look."

Soon, Yuan Gang's report came from the token: "General, the Li family in Shanjian City just sent a young man to gain experience. What do you think..."

"it is good!"

Yang Jingchu slapped his thigh. Someone helped to promote it, which saved him a lot of effort. It seemed that no matter how many levels the two of them had passed today, the news would be spread soon.

Mountain City Li Family…

It’s a pity that the Li family is still too small and can only be regarded as a newly rising wealthy family, not a noble family.

However, being able to give the Li family a small shock was enough to make the two people from Yunzhou famous.

Thinking of this, Yang Jingchu slapped his thigh again: "Send a message to Yunzhou! Tell Wu Jingyu that these two people are absolutely safe in my territory, and they can get a lot of benefits."

"Just let him take care of his own safety. Someone will solve the chaos in Yunzhou sooner or later."

Since the states were too far apart, communication could no longer be delivered in a timely manner, and the only way to communicate was by leaving letters.

The people in Yunzhou already knew about the safety of the two, and now they sent another message to add some reassurance, and also to do a favor.

.........

"It's much easier than the fierce battle in Yunmeng Tianxu."

After overcoming several challenges, Jiang Yue felt that his muscles and bones finally began to move.

Those who can transform their fighting spirits into mind are certainly not mediocre people, but after all, the source of power in this state is the mountain god, not the challenger himself.
Although physical condition and strength can be simulated, combat experience cannot.

Everyone has a different understanding of their own physical condition and masters different fighting methods.

In a word, this fighting spirit is a dead thing after all!
As for the fierce battle in Yunmeng Tianxu, although the strength of the people fighting was simulated through means, it was almost indistinguishable from the real bodies. In addition, it was all controlled by one's own spiritual thoughts, so it could basically be said to be a simulated battle.

As for these fighting spirits, they only have realm and strength, but lack flexibility.

After passing nine levels, Jiang Yue could only consider it as a warm-up, and was still a long way from the real action.

The tenth floor.

The platform here is already hundreds of meters high, suspended in the air, and one needs to jump in from a raised rock.

Jiang Yue didn't have to take the usual route. Although the peak was steep, it was as easy as walking on flat ground for him. He just jumped and reached the platform.

The next moment, the space twisted and a young man in a dark robe appeared.

As the bell rang, signaling a challenge, the young man leaped up, stomped his toes on the ground, and attacked with his legs as fast as a whip.

Jiang Yue saw this attack coming towards his heart, but his body remained motionless. He estimated in his mind that his opponent had reached the fifth level, but...

If it was just an attack of this level, it wouldn't even be able to break his defense!

There is no need to dodge or trade injuries for life, just take it with your body.

The next moment, the young man's attack stagnated, and his body suddenly scattered like a stream of light, and many streams of light fell on Jiang Yue.

This scene will appear after winning each level of the challenge. Jiang Yue doesn’t know what it means, but he thinks it shouldn’t be a bad thing.

However, this time, perhaps because of enough accumulation, the quantitative change finally led to a qualitative change. Jiang Yue only felt that all the accumulated light in his body exploded in an instant and turned invisible.

A strange light flashed in his eyes. Everything around him seemed to slow down instantly. Recalling every subtle scene and every change of steps in the past battles, they seemed to be disassembled into clear frames, slowly appearing in his mind.

In an instant, Jiang Yue felt as if a flash of inspiration had appeared in his mind, as if a door to a whole new realm of martial arts had been opened.

Combining past experiences with what I have gained from these recent battles...

The originally complex and unpredictable secrets of footwork were now like a slowly unfolding map, with its subtleties clearly visible. His legs seemed to be infused with a mysterious power, and he naturally began to imitate and evolve the essence of the footwork he had just comprehended.

Jiang Yue's figure suddenly shook, and he became elusive like a phantom. His steps seemed disordered but contained a pattern.

Sometimes he tapped his toes lightly, as nimble as a dragonfly skimming the water, and sometimes he took a big step, as swift as a meteor chasing the moon. Every step he took seemed to create a wonderful resonance with the surrounding space.

The graceful figure is like a startled wild goose, and the illusory form sweeps across the formation like a dragon.

[Spiritual Shadow Step (Beginner)]

"Ok?"

When his eyes became clear again, Jiang Yue was immediately delighted.

The situation just now...

Wonderful!

Before this, Jiang Yue always felt that what he had learned was a bit unconventional. Although it was not necessarily a bad thing, he still wanted to make up for his shortcomings.

Whether it is close combat, long-range fighting, personal physical defense capabilities, or even means of detecting the enemy, he has no shortage of them.

The only thing missing is the footwork.

It's not that Xu Chong doesn't want to teach, it's really...

Jiang Yue’s exposure to spiritual practice has been too short!
Who could have thought that his breakthrough would be so fast?
The consequence of rapid growth in realm is that a lot of efforts need to be made up for possible shortcomings.

Fortunately, with the divine seal panel, Jiang Yue has no shortage of killing methods. As for leg skills, they are generally divided into two categories.

Footwork and lightness skills.

The footwork focuses on dodging and avoiding the opponent's attacks, while the light skill focuses on speed. It is possible to have both, but it takes a certain amount of time to hone them.

The [Phantom Steps] that Jiang Yue had just learned were the result of a large amount of practical experience combined with his past opponents and the help of spiritual light. It could barely be considered a self-created step.

I don’t know how the level of my footwork compares with other footwork, but it is obvious that the method I have realized must be the most suitable for my current use.

"Fighting Spirit Peak..."

"What a great place. They sent me a pillow because I was short of sleep."

"With a few more spiritual lights, I might be able to improve my Spirit Shadow Step a lot today..."

Having learned a new method, Jiang Yue was even more eager to try it out and was full of anticipation for the upcoming challenges.

It’s only the tenth floor, and I’ve gained so much.

Wouldn’t the rewards be even greater in the following levels?

Recalling the wonderful feeling of the spiritual light assisting his sudden enlightenment, Jiang Yue quickened his pace.

……

"How many times did the bell ring?"

"Twenty-three times... a full twenty-three times! What an amazing speed. Most of them should be from those two."

"Listen! The ancient bell on the tenth floor is ringing! I can't have misheard that sound. Someone has reached the tenth floor in one fell swoop today!"

“Hahahahahaha… You’re worthy of being a member of our Sky Patrol Department. You pass the levels without any drag.”

"The tenth-floor ancient bell has rung twice. Today is truly an eye-opener."

Although there is no strength limit in Douhun Peak, there is a time limit. Those who succeed in challenging all the way can continue the previous challenge next time, while the losers will have to wait for a year.

Therefore, most of the sky patrol commanders were waiting at the foot of the peak. After all, even if there was such an opportunity, now might not be the best condition, and time could not be wasted rashly.

Seeing that two people had passed the tenth-floor platform, they were immediately excited, and some of them even looked at Li Jianfei standing aside from time to time.

But Li Jianfei looked a little melancholy. Although he had no intention of competing, the younger generations he brought with him were different.

Before entering the challenge, Li Jianfei could clearly see the emotions in the eyes of those young men.

We are all young people, so how could we be willing to fall behind others?

This mentality is good, and he certainly won't stop it. If he loses, it's fine, but if...

If the defeat is too ugly, then the fighting spirit will be lost, and some people may never recover from it.

"At that age, he can easily pass the tenth floor..."

"I don't know if the one from my Li family can compete with me."

Li Jianfei secretly estimated the time in his mind and listened carefully to the bell, but he was a little unsure for a moment.

However, when the sound of the tenth-floor ancient bell is heard next time, it should be the person from the Li family who has made it through. By then, we can compare the time and see if there is a difference...

I don't know how the Patrol Department did it. In Qianzhou, aren't they recruiting mostly rural folks? How could they train such a young man...

Li Jianfei had no idea about the Inspectors. He just thought they were the good talents recently recruited by the Sky Patrol Department. For a moment, he couldn't help but sigh that it would be great if those two were born in the Li family.

Yuan Gang on the side could not see all these thoughts. After all, he didn't know much about the family customs in Qianzhou, and had no idea that the difference was so great.

However, looking at the other party's frown, Yuan Gang still felt secretly happy.

After all, his current role is that of an "old senior" of the Sky Patrol Department. How can he not be happy that his younger generation is in the spotlight?

What's more, the general also said that today's events should be publicized widely so that those aristocratic families can know the power of the Sky Patrol Bureau, and the Li family is the best backdrop.

Yuan Gang had even ordered people to book a restaurant in the city, just waiting for the summit to be over.

clang…

clang…

Every few breaths, a bell would ring, one after another.

Every time the bell rang, Li Jianfei's face became uglier.

Although I have confidence in my younger generation, but at this speed... there is really no way they could have achieved this.

If this continues...how many floors will the other party have to reach before it ends?

clang!
The ancient bell symbolizing the twentieth floor rang, instantly shocking everyone present.

clang!
When the second sound came right after, many sky patrol commanders who were originally excited suddenly showed surprised expressions.

Isn’t this... a bit too exaggerated?
Although I know that the two have extraordinary identities and their strength is definitely not simple, I am able to make them proud today.

But, isn’t that a bit too outrageous?
He passed through one level in just a few breaths. Did he really think this was mountain climbing and he could just climb up?
To be able to have such a speed means...

The two of them haven't met any opponents yet, and they have been killing them instantly along the way!

"Wait, I remember that the nineteenth floor was a critical threshold, and the fighting spirit left there..."

"It's the now famous Zhenyue Hou!"

"That was the fighting spirit he left behind when he was still in the sixth realm. It already has the embryonic form of what he has learned."

A Sky Patrol Commander looked surprised and continued, "Half a year ago, I was stuck at this level. Its defense is too outstanding, and it has a secret method that can continuously accumulate hidden injuries. When accumulated to a certain level, it will explode instantly with the Zhenyue Hand. It is extremely terrifying..."

"Such an opponent couldn't stop them?"

Yuan Gang was a little bit unbelievable. He didn't have such a clear concept of Douhun Peak before, but after hearing this...

Junior brother is actually able to fight against the sixth realm?
He was even a strong man in the sixth realm, and even... it didn’t take much time!

Recalling the other party's performance in Yunzhou, Yuan Gang exclaimed, what kind of monster did Master accept?

It has only been a short period of time, and not only has his cultivation caught up with him, but his combat power has also reached an exaggerated level.

Although he knew that the opponent's Nine Revolutions Furnace would make his combat power far surpass that of his peers, Yuan Gang could never have imagined that there would be such a huge gap!

"It's a pity that I'm already in the fifth realm, otherwise I'd really like to shamelessly ask Junior Brother for advice on how to achieve perfection in the sea of ​​blood..."

"No, no."

"If I practice that method, I might never have a chance to get the Jade Tower in this lifetime!"

Yuan Gang smacked his lips and was even more shocked by Jiang Yue's talent.
