"Level 10 [Impregnable Golden Body]!"
Shen Changqing's body did not move and was still sitting in its original position. Though, at this mont, his Qi and blood were surging, like that of a roaring beast.
After a while, the boiling blood slowly subsided.
At this ti, Shen Changqing took out the Cold Moon Sword and slashed his palm, neither too lightly nor heavily. He only felt a cold touch slide across his skin. Not to ntion drawing blood, there's not even a scar.
"The Cold Moon Sword that can cut iron like mud, can't break my defense now!"
After this preliminary testing, Shen Changqing's True Qi surged and he swung the Cold Moon Sword hard.
He imdiately felt a stinging pain and his palm was cut open.
Blood dripped down from the wound, but it didn't last long, as the wound stopped bleeding. Then under Shen Changqing's gaze, it began to scab and heal.
"True Qi plus the Cold Moon Sword is enough to kill Qi Circulation Realm Cultivators. aning, even without using True Qi, my current defense is invincible below that Realm."
"Furthermore, the speed of my healing has also gotten much faster."
"As long as the injury is not very serious, no dication is required. It will naturally heal on its own within a short period of ti."
Shen Changqing was very satisfied with the changes in his body.
With his Killing Value, he only managed to upgrade the [Heavenly Martial Astral Qi] once, so the rest was all spent on the [Impregnable Golden Body]. With such a leveling path, his strength did not seem to have improved much.
However, with the upgrades stacked up and the further he progressed with the Martial Arts, the increase was very gratifying.
With a Level 10 [Impregnable Golden Body], he was invincible below the Qi Circulation Realm.
So what about when he reaches Level 15?
Shen Changqing was really looking forward to it.
At the sa ti, his dantian also expanded as his body was strengthened.
The True Qi, that had originally filled his dantian, now only occupied around 90%. He didn't feel as bloated as before.
Not only that, when Shen Changqing tried to compress the True Qi, although his dantian was still under pressure, it was no longer as painful as before.
"With the expansion of my dantian, I can accommodate more True Qi."
"At the sa ti, its strength has also increased. It is no longer the sa as at the beginning, and it wouldn't be easily torn by the True Qi. In this case, it may be possible to further compress the True Qi in the future."
Before this, Shen Changqing thought that Internal Martial Arts was the foundation of a Cultivator. While External Martial Arts was only used as the foundation for Internal Martial Arts, and that one wouldn't be bothered with anymore after the initial stages.
But now, it seed that his previous conclusion was completely wrong.
External Martial Arts was just as fundantal as Internal Martial Arts to a Cultivator!
Shen Changqing's mind retreated from the panel and looked at the desktop in front of him with a wry smile on his face.
"The improvent is indeed fast, but so is the consumption!"
The table was filled with empty pill bottles.
Among them, the one that he had consud the most was the Satiety Pill.
The consumption of each subsequent upgrade of the [Impregnable Golden Body] was generally not large. But now, he only had one bottle of Satiety Pills left. The rest had been consud in the upgrade just now.
As for the Qi and Blood Pills, he only had two bottles left.
After putting away the three remaining bottles of pills, Shen Changqing discarded the empty bottles as if it were ordinary garbage.
As sunlight passed through the window, Shen Changqing got up and opened it, revealing the dazzling sun.
It took him a long ti to kill the monsters and then to break through.
Now, a whole night had already passed.
Opening the door, Shen Changqing walked downstairs and ca to an empty table on the second floor. A sharp-eyed waiter imdiately greeted him.
"What can I do for this guest?"
"Just ordering sothing to eat."
Shen Changqing then began to look through the nu, ordering a few dishes and a pot of wine.
If it was in the past, he wouldn't have co here to eat.
Although Tianyi Lou was very famous in Jin City, he had his Satiety Pills. He didn't need to eat and waste ti.
Though, it's different now.
He did not have many Satiety Pills left, and Shen Changqing felt that he needed to keep so, in case of an ergency.
"Alright dear guest, please wait for a minute. This one will go and prepare it for you."
The waiter then retreated.
Soon, soone brought the wine up.
Shen Changqing poured himself a glass, and while drinking, he watched the scene below the second floor. At the sa ti, he also listened to the conversations of other people in the restaurant.
"Did you hear, I heard that there were strange screams in the East of the city last night? It seems to be related to the monsters."
"I heard that not only in the East side of the city, the sa thing also happened in the West side and South side of the city."
"This is weird. That kind of screaming does not co from a normal person. But, I haven't heard of any dead people appearing either. It's really weird"
At a table, a few people dressed as scholars, chatted while drinking wine.
When the people at the other tables heard this, they couldn't help, but join in.
"Speaking of which, I live in the East side of the city, and the screams from last night were indeed very terrifying. I suspect that it was an expert killing the monster!"
The others nodded in agreent.
"It's very much possible!"
"Yes. After all, when sothing like this happened, like the ti in the Ten Thousand Flowers Pavilion, thousands had died. But this ti, there were none."
"Heh, many people have died, the court must be furious. Even the Black Tiger Army, who has always been stationed outside, has entered the city."
"Wipe them monsters clean!"
When talking about monsters, everyone shared the sa opinion for obvious reasons.
Shen Changqing smiled slightly and continued to drink.
Soon, the food he ordered began arriving.
After eating and drinking, Shen Changqing left Tianyi Lou.
The atmosphere of the people in the city was currently a bit more solemn.
What happened last night was undoubtedly an invisible stresser for many people.
But, he didn't think much of it.
He had checked the areas where there might be monsters last night, and killed the ones he had found. Even if there were still so hidden sowhere, he couldn't do anything. Unless they revealed themselves or created a disturbance.
"From what I've heard, breaking through the Grandmaster Realm and comprehending True Intent would bring upon a spiritual transformation. By that ti, one's perception will be stronger, making it easier to find the hidden monsters."
While walking on the street, Shen Changqing recalled so information.
Shen Changqing's perception was also always at a peak state, and he could spot any hidden monster that he chanced upon.
Unfortunately, he couldn't find any.
By this ti, Shen Changqing had to believe that perhaps the monsters in Jin City were already killed by him.
"If there are no more monsters, then it's ti to go back!"
By go back, he did not an Tianyi Lou, but the Demon Suppression Division.
The main purpose of his mission here was to investigate the authenticity of the information about the Eternal Life Alliance stronghold in the city, and if possible, destroy it.
These two were already considered to have been completed, even over-completed.
As for his other mission of protecting Xu Yi and others, he clearly failed.
Although it was a pity, he didn't think too much.
Xu Yi and others were killed on their way back to the Demon Suppression Division after leaving Jin City, which was beyond his control.
At this ti, Liu Jian approached Shen Changqing.
"Lord Shen!"
The forr clasped his fists in greeting.
"Constable Liu."
Shen Changqing also stopped and acknowledged him.
He did not think that it was a coincidence that he t Liu Jian by chance.
Jin City wasn't that small for them to bump into each other so easily. Obviously, this eting was intentional.
"What business does Constable Liu have with ?"
"Lord Shen has a keen eye!"
Liu Jian first complinted him, before smiling awkwardly.
"Governor Nie wants to invite Lord Shen to go to the Governnt Office for sothing. I wonder if it's convenient for Lord Shen?"
"Alright."
Shen Changqing nodded calmly in agreent.
Anyway, he was about to leave Jin City and needed to go to the Governnt Office anyway.
As Shen Changqing and Liu Jian ca to the gate of the Governnt Office, the two guards did not dare to stop the two. They simply respectfully let them in.
The two then crossed the outer hall and went directly to the Inner Hall.
When Shen Changqing stepped in, Nie Xu just saw him and got up from the chair with a warm smile on his face.
"Lord Shen is finally here, I've been waiting for you!"
"For Governor Nie to ask to co in such a hurry, did sothing happen?"
