Chapter 124: Abundant Harvest.

After swallowing one Violent Blood Pill, Shen Changqing did not go for a second one.

He did not dare to indiscriminately eat this type of pill.

After one the pill entered his body, his Qi and blood boiled for a moment. After it subsided, there was some loss.

It was just that such a loss was nothing compared to his surging Qi and blood.

If he ate a large amount of Violent Blood Pills, then the loss might be a bit large.

Glancing at the pills in front of him, Shen Changqing dived into his thoughts and focused his attention on the panel.

This was the highlight of today.

After killing a few monsters, and the Barbarian Shaman, he had gained a wave of Killing Value for himself.

As such, his Killing Value had increased significantly.

The next thing to do was to convert all of these Killing Value Points into power.

                      -

Name: Shen Changqing

Faction: Daqin Town Demon Division

Status: Yellow Rank Official Slayer

Martial Arts: Impregnable Golden Body (Level 10, can be upgraded), Heavenly Martial Astral Qi (Level 16, can be upgraded), Hundred Battles Sword Technique (Level 3), Iron Sand Palm (Level 5, can be fused), Heaven Capturing Astral Steps (Level 5, can be fused), Splitting Mountain Palm Technique (not yet activated, can be fused), Willow Wool Body Technique (not yet activated, can be fused)

Killing Value: 91 

                      -

"91!"

Even though he had already expected it in his heart, Shen Changqing was still shocked upon actually seeing the numbers on the panel.

91 Killing Value points.

It was the highest amount he had ever got.

Many of the Killing Value came from Hongyi and the Barbarian Shaman.

A monster at the peak of the Innate Outer Astral Realm, plus a Barbarian Shaman who was not weak either, contributed a combined Killing Value of around 50 to 60 points.

The remaining monsters in the Qi Circulation Realm and the monster controlled by the Barbarian Shaman also gave some.

Finally, adding his original 7 points, it all summed up into the 91 points he was seeing now.

"With 91 points, I can raise the [Impregnable Golden Body] to its perfect state. I could also upgrade the [Heavenly Martial Astral Qi]."

"The advantage of the [Impregnable Golden Body] is becoming more and more obvious."

"If I can reach its perfect state, the help it will provide me will definitely become stronger."

Shen Changqing thought to himself.

In the past, except for the aspects of Qi and blood, External Martial Art had never shown great use.

Although every breakthrough, his physical defense would be strengthened, compared to his Realm, the defense enhancement was insignificant.

It was only until now, after the [Impregnable Golden Body] got upgraded, that the advantages gradually manifested.

The reason why Shen Changqing was able to kill the Barbarian Shaman so quickly was precisely because of his strong body, which completely caught the opponent off guard.

"If External Martial Arts cannot reach a high level, it has no way of comparing with Internal Martial Arts, but if it does reach a high level, then it can show amazing power!"

Every time he improved, Shen Changqing would accumulate a little more knowledge about Martial Arts.

Such knowledge couldn't be mastered just by reading a few more books in the library.

It was only through oneself reaching that level, could the corresponding comprehension and feelings be realized.

For example, before, Shen Changqing had always believed that Internal Martial Arts was the main thing, and External Martial Arts was simply optional.

But looking at it now, there was no primary or secondary distinction between the two. After reaching a certain level, they were both indispensable.

And

External Martial Arts trained the body, and the body was the foundation of Human Beings. To some extent, it was much more powerful than Internal Martial Arts.

After exiting his mind, Shen Changqing first swallowed a whole bottle of Satiety Pills, and then began with his upgrades.

Level 11 [Impregnable Golden Body]!

8 points were consumed!

[Boom~]!

The upgrade this time took a lot longer than the previous upgrade.

It was only after half an hour had passed, did the rising movement gradually stopped.

Upon looking at the panel again, the [Impregnable Golden Body] had successfully broken through to Level 11. Shen Changqing's Qi and blood have also become stronger. His physical defense had improved a lot, and even his dantian, that accommodated his True Qi, had also been expanded to a certain extent.

"With Level 11 [Impregnable Golden Body], my defense alone should be at the Innate Realm!"

Shen Changqing clenched his fists and thought to himself.

The defense Shen Changqing was talking about was how much of an attack he could withstand without using his Armor Qi. 

The Level 10 [Impregnable Golden Body] can resist attacks below the Innate Realm.

The Level 11 [Impregnable Golden Body] broke the limit and made his defense reach the Innate Realm.

"If I combine this with my Qi, even an Innate Outer Astral Realm Cultivator wouldn't be able to easily break my defense"

Shen Changqing smiled lightly. Although it was said that attacking is the best defense, if ones attack cannot be improved, it was also good to focus on ones defense instead.

Soon, Shen Changqing's thoughts sunk into his mind again and started the next round of upgrades.

After the upgrade, he still had 83 points left. It was completely effortless to raise the [Impregnable Golden Body] to its perfection.

All day, Shen Changqing stayed in his room, obsessed with breaking through.

In order to prevent someone from disturbing him, he made a special order. Telling the staff that he was going into seclusion, and no one was allowed to disturb him.

It rained a little at noon, making the road a little more muddy in the evening.

[Boom~]! !

The earth suddenly shook, as if a dragon was turning over.

Immediately after, a horse's hooves trampled the ground, splashing a lot of muddy water.

On the flat ground, a large number of horses galloped. Behind the horses were a large number of soldiers. There were also giant apes about two or three meters tall, carrying a large amount of siege equipment on their shoulders, heading towards the distance.

The Barbarian army!

When they saw the arrival of the Barbarian army, all of the people along their path fled, not daring to confront the army head-on.

"Hiss~!"

On a tree trunk, a person's body seemed to merge with the surroundings. He stared at the large number of Barbarian troops in front of him, with a horrified look in his eyes.

"The Barbarian army is coming!"

"This matter cannot be delayed, this must be reported back immediately-"

The man thought in his mind, but his body did not move. He was still watching the approaching Barbarian army.

Only after all of the information was recorded, did he get ready to withdraw.

Suddenly, a squeaking sound came from the sky, followed by a shadow covering it, and a gust of wind blew in an instant.

The man instinctively raised his head, just in time to see a soaring eagle, with a pair of sharp eyes staring at him.

"Not good I got exposed!"

The man was startled. Without even thinking about it, he got off the tree trunk and wanted to flee into the distance.

The Barbarians could domesticate animals.

The eagle above his head was obviously controlled by the Barbarians.

Seeing that the other party wanted to escape, the eagle swooped down immediately. It's pair of sharp claws were like iron hooks, flashing a frightening cold light.

The man pulled a dagger from his waist, as he felt a strong wind blow from behind him. Suddenly, he threw himself to the ground. Immediately after that, he felt the sharp claws pass from behind him, he then turned over to hold the dagger and stabbed the eagle with force.

The dagger collided with the claws, and blood spattered.

Subsequently, the eagle's wide wings swept across, creating a strong wind that swept the man to the ground a few times. It also made the man lose his grip on his dagger.

Getting up from the ground, the man fled into the distance like a mad man.

The eagle flew into the air, before swooping down again. This time, its pair of blood-stained claws caught the man's head.

[Crack]

The man's head was immediately crushed, like it was tofu. 

The corpse powerlessly fell to the ground.

The eagle then grabbed the corpse and vacated it, heading towards the direction of the Barbarian army.

In the army's position.

A giant beast moved forward slowly. Several people sat on the beast's body. The leading person was eight feet tall, like a small giant. The muscles on his arms were undulating like dragons, and his fierce aura silently leaked out.

Suddenly, the strong man raised his head and saw the eagle with a corpse.

"The scouts of the Great Qin."

A thick voice sounded, as the strong man simply glanced at the corpse, before withdrawing his gaze.

Seeing this, a Barbarian Shaman with a thin body and a bone scepter waved his hand, signaling the eagle to leave with the corpse.

After the eagle left, the Shaman looked at the strong man.

"Lord Merba, if you guessed correctly, it should be the scout from Jin City. We are not far from Jin City right now. At most, it will be a few hours before the troops will arrive."

"It's just a little scout, ignore it."

The strong man called Lord Merba shook his head slightly, his expression was as indifferent as ever.

"Jin City is not an important city in the Great Wilderness Province. According to the information, there are only 12,000 Black Tiger Army troops stationed there. With our 120,000 people, it is easy to break through it."

"Lord Merba says it very well, how can a small Black Tiger Army fight against the Barbarian army? What awaits Jin City is only defeat."

The Barbarian Shaman nodded.

Hearing this, Merba's expression remained unchanged: "Is there any news from Cangyuan?"

"I heard that Jin City has undergone a lockdown, and the situation has become serious. There's no news from Cangyuan for more than half a day now."

"Since there has been no news for so long, it seems that Cangyuan has been exposed by the Great Qin people."

"Impossible!"

The Barbarian Shaman frowned and couldn't believe it.

"Cangyuan is not weak, and he stayed in Great Qin all year round. If he wanted to hide himself, it would be difficult for the Great Qin people to find him. Maybe the news didn't arrive yet because of the lockdown."

"You should know better than me that the Shaman of our clan can communicate with beasts. Even if Jin City is closed, Cangyuan would still have the means to spread the news. Since there is no movement, he's obviously been lost."

Merba's voice was cold.

Cangyuan was not weak. It was a pity for him to be lost in a mere Jin City.

Though, for their attack on Jin City, it would not have a big impact.

The Barbarian Shaman's face was calm, and he didn't open his mouth to refute Merba's words.

It was because what the other party said, indeed made a lot of sense.

"It's a pity that Cangyuan died in Jin City"

"Once the clan breaks Jin City, we will naturally avenge him!"
