Chapter 83: Chapter 83: Elephant Envoy lv11 (Fourth Update)
Tie Kuang was wary of Xu Guang’s unknown background and gave him considerable autonomy.
Although it wasn’t explicitly stated, the disciples at the Master Hall clearly felt that its status within the sect had risen slightly.
They didn’t understand why this was happening.
Xu Guang, however, was well aware of everything, but he had no interest in paying attention to it.
He was busy with the refinent of the Ghost Treasure with the Celestial Register.
Setting up a Feng Shui Array, continuously refining the Ghost Treasure.
His connection with the Celestial Register was also becoming increasingly tight.
The information revealed was becoming more detailed.
[Celestial Register - Ninth Grade - Reserve Position]
[Blessing: Hosted Soldiers]
[Celestial rit: 308]
It truly is a Divine Object, no wonder Song Di valued this Celestial Register so much. If the blessing is strong enough, the presence of this Celestial Register is comparable to a cheat.
A cheat created by the big shots of the local world.
Xu Guang showed a look of appreciation; fortunately, he also possessed it.
He wondered if 308 points of Celestial rit could et the standard for the Main Position in the next Celestial Register positioning.
He was currently just a Ninth Grade Reserve Position, and according to the Celestial Register’s rules, a Reserve Position cannot be promoted to Eighth Grade.
The Celestial Register positions itself once a year, and the ti until the next year’s positioning is still long. Xu Guang had never participated in the Celestial Register positioning, and he was quite curious about it, not knowing what kind of spectacle it would be.
Looking at more than half of the Ghost Treasures still remaining, if all refined, his Celestial rit should reach a thousand.
Xu Guang nodded in satisfaction and imdiately walked out of the room.
As soon as he stepped out of the courtyard, the street seed to be instantly silenced, as silent as the grave.
Xu Guang sat atop General Wei, a gentle smile on his face.
"Everyone, carry on with what you’re doing; General Wei won’t make a move."
After General Wei’s promotion, the lingering aura about him almost materialized; this was an instinct of a Demon Beast, especially for a Great Beast like General Wei, who primarily feeds on grass.
The inherent aura could deter many carnivorous Demon Beasts, avoiding trouble in the wild.
However, as Xu Guang lived in the human world, it beca sowhat troubleso.
It wasn’t until Xu Guang rode off on General Wei that the people returned to their previous state.
"This Great Beast is really terrifying; I didn’t even have the courage to stand in front of it."
"Do you think, if this Great Beast went berserk, could the Iron Armor Sect’s Sect Leader Tie subdue it?"
"Well..."
This was a topic that, unbeknownst to anyone, quietly began spreading among the populace, and it was even occasionally discussed among so wealthy rchants.
But the majority opinion was quite unanimous that Tie Kuang would not be a match for General Wei.
That was for sure.
...
In no ti, it was mid-September.
Xu Guang arrived at the Master Hall to start his daily sign-in.
He waved away over three hundred young disciples and then dismissed Han Song and others.
Xu Guang opened the panel and looked at the "13223" experience points, revealing a satisfied smile.
Such tranquil days are truly a blessing.
However, he knew this was just a dream; outside, chaos reigned, and the peace in Qingshuo County was under the Song Clan’s protection. Without it, Qingshuo County would instantly beco a battleground.
In these chaotic tis, stability is fleeting and illusory.
’First, upgrade the Elephant Envoy level to lv11; several Professional Skills are too low-level, offering little assistance to General Wei.’
General Wei’s strength was his real trump card and advantage; continuously enhancing these would be the right path.
As 11,000 experience points vanished, the suffix for the Elephant Envoy profession finally changed to lv11.
[Na: Xu Guang]
[Universal Experience: 10,580]
[Current Job: 1, beggar Lv5. 2, Elephant Envoy lv11. 3, Martial Artist Lv11. 4, Pharmacist Lv6. 5, Feng Shui Master lv5]
[Current Skills (Martial Artist): Fallen Dragon lv4 (100/5000), Dragon and Snake Splitting Light lv1 (max), White Crane Longevity Technique lv9 (max), White Crane Ladder Cloud Soaring lv9 (max), Capture the Flag lv5 (max), Iron Armor Unyielding Technique lv5 (max)]
[Next career change requires Feng Shui Master lv5 or above]
The feedback from the Elephant Contract ca once again, but this ti...
An unprecedented discomfort, Xu Guang’s entire body pulsed with pain, as if his muscles were about to tear apart.
After a long while, he finally relaxed.
’The power growth was excessive, and my body can’t quite support it.’
Indeed, as General Wei was already Innate, the feedback was massive, exceeding the physical strength itself.
Ti to practice so Horizontal Cultivation Techniques.
Xu Guang thought to himself, such a great power, not cultivating a Horizontal Cultivation Technique, would be a pity.
However, Innate Level Horizontal Training techniques are rarer than ordinary Innate Techniques, the most famous being the Buddhist Vajra Lineage.
Xu Guang didn’t want to casually cultivate a technique; these foundational things require caution in practice.
Cultivation Techniques change so of the body’s organizational structure, and the physique will undergo significant transformations, making modification difficult. Even with a Scattering Technique, eliminating traces of prior cultivation isn’t easy.
It’s almost impossible for a sumo wrestler to switch to practicing gymnastics.
’Yu Rong ntioned that the Jade Cicada Molt Divine Technique can perfectly resolve such issues. Regarding cultivating Horizontal Training, I’ll wait until I obtain the Jade Cicada Secret Collection; I have a premonition I’ll find the last Turtle Shell Fragnt.’
The Level 11 Elephant Envoy unlocks the Simulation of Elephant Envoy Skills.
Xu Guang didn’t hesitate to first enhance the Elephant Cuisine as General Wei’s appetite was becoming quite an issue.
Ordinary leaves have little effect, and it often eats for a whole day, quite troubleso.
The familiar simulation of the skill led Xu Guang into a dream.
For a long ti, he slowly opened his eyes, finding silence before him.
General Wei drew close, letting him observe.
He smiled wryly.
[Elephant Cuisine lv0 (10/100): Elephant Spirit Supplent]
[Daily Diet: 900 pounds of Green Flower Fruit, 600 pounds of Juicy Berries...]
[Advanced Daily Diet: 10 Spirit of Innate Spiritual Soil, 1 wisp of Dragon Blood...]
Xu Guang closed the panel without expression, not continuing to read.
He simply glanced at the other Elephant Envoy skills, finally focusing on [Unity of Man and Elephant] and [Encourage], as these two skills should have the greatest enhancent.
However, considering that the prerequisite for upgrading [Encourage] was a sufficiently high level of [Unity of Man and Elephant],
Both skills required a significant amount of experience for simulation.
’Let’s get to work!’
"Han Song, help
handle sothing."
...
Afternoon.
Knock knock knock.
The sound of knocking ca, Han Song returned.
Accompanied by Wang Jun and others.
"Is everything settled?"
Xu Guang looked at them.
Han Song nodded, "Landlord Li, Landlord Qian, and Landlord Niu have all agreed to plant the items you requested on their estates, and they are already arranging for people to start the work."
Xu Guang nodded upon hearing this.
He couldn’t ignore General Wei’s appetite, and with the chaos outside, he also had to consider the safety of Wang Jun and others.
Therefore, he entrusted Han Song to cooperate with several wealthy businessn with large estates to plant General Wei’s favorite food.
This would also help resolve General Wei’s current food crisis.
"Please thank the landlords for . Here is a prepared gift of gratitude."
Monts later, after sending the people off, Xu Guang continued grinding experience points.
The Feng Shui Master profession had already advanced to level 5, enabling him to unlock the next profession transition.
However, Xu Guang had yet to decide which profession to transition into, having a few options at hand.
Combat-oriented options included knight, daoist, monk...
Life and support-oriented options included blacksmith, carpenter, painter...
Or perhaps a special profession transition to search for the last piece of the turtle shell.
He was quite conflicted.
’Professions are increasing, becoming a bit too chaotic. Although with the golden finger, there’s no concern of biting off more than I can chew, it still feels a bit confusing.’
’I don’t know what changes the golden finger will have in the future, but this limitless array of professions seems sowhat redundant.’
...
At dawn, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled as rain fell like a curtain.
The distant mountains were faintly visible, and the gates of Qingshuo County were bustling. Nobody stopped their work due to the sudden thunderstorm.
This was just the daily routine; for their livelihood, they had to endure many things.
The scorching temperature from the past few days finally eased a bit today.
A person dressed in gray-white clothes braved the rain into Qingshuo County, stumbling as he entered Tie Kuang’s room.
The rain stopped, refreshing the empty mountains with the new rain.
Chen Zheng, wearing a bamboo hat, walked the streets of the Iron Workshop, and many disciples who had been there for so ti greeted him.
Chen Zheng simply nodded as a greeting.
He hurriedly entered Tie Kuang’s room.
"Greetings, Sect Leader."
Tie Kuang saw Chen Zheng and a trace of joy appeared on his face.
"You finally returned. How are things outside?"
Chen Zheng was sent to stay by Song Di, and with his return today, there was certainly sothing important.
"The situation concerning the Sixth Young Master has taken a turn for the worse. Soone suggested a marriage alliance between the Song Clan and the Jiang Family, promising to send the Sixth Young Master as the chosen husband."
Tie Kuang’s eyes widened, "Chosen husband!?"
Chen Zheng nodded grimly.
"Is there no way to change it?"
Chen Zheng hesitated before speaking.
"Song Hou publicly declared that the one who brings the least rit to the Song Family should go as the husband, and since the Sixth Young Master is the youngest, last winter he inexplicably withdrew a large sum of silver coins... this handle was caught by several young masters, and they..."
Tie Kuang was silent, knowing what Song Di had spent the money on, as the Thirty-Six Great Bandits were not easily mobilized.
Song Di’s search for Wei Shuangnian’s whereabouts already cost a fortune, in addition to hiring Green Forest...
In the end, he was just a young master who had yet to reach the Innate level.
"Is there any way to redy this?"
Chen Zheng hesitated to speak.
After a long while, he finally spoke.
"The Ghost Horse Sect of Nanling holds a grudge against the Song Clan. Although the Song Clan obliterated the Ghost Horse Sect, many of its mbers escaped, and the Sixth Young Master took over this task."
Tie Kuang understood and sighed in frustration.
Ghost Horse Sect...
The Sect Leader was an Innate Expert, and whether there was only one innate in the sect was still unknown.
Though he was confident in breaking through within a month, attacking the Ghost Horse Sect...
However, this was Song Di’s matter, and he was already tied to Song Di. Once Song Di loses the qualification to compete for the heir, the Iron Armor Sect could fall apart overnight.
Tie Kuang felt bitter inside but had no other choice.
"Tell the Sixth Young Master that I will handle this matter."
Chen Zheng looked hesitant, "Master, perhaps we should... leave."
"Where to?" Tie Kuang retorted.
Chen Zheng was left speechless.
...
Cyan Ox Mountain.
A secluded mountain cave.
A campfire crackled, while a breeze blew over the flas, casting jagged black shadows on the cliff walls that moved with the wind, resembling devouring evil ghosts.
The disciples of the White Toad Sect had stayed here for a long ti, but they had yet to hear any news of the Sect Leader and the Young Sect Leader’s return.
Being skittish by nature, they grew increasingly anxious.
Without the Sect Leader, they didn’t know what fate would befall them in these chaotic tis.
The White Toad Sect’s cultivation technique was peculiar; once cultivated, it transford the practitioner into a fat person, so even as fugitives, they only dared to move in the deep mountains.
"Senior Brother, the Sect Leader hasn’t returned yet; what should we do?"
In the darkness.
Soone spoke up suddenly.
Instantly, a pair of eyes turned towards the portly figure at the forefront.
The plump figure opened his eyes, a trace of black flashed in his eyes, and he irritably scratched himself, a wave of irritation spreading across his mind.
"How would I know what to do? If worse cos to worst, we disband our cultivation, then disband the group!"
"Senior Brother, don’t be rash at a ti like this."
"I’m bloody serious! Each of you takes no responsibility; disbanding early might be better."
"Senior Brother, are you going to abandon us?"
A weak female disciple’s voice ca.
Senior Brother’s face froze, but soon after, the blackness in his eyes resurfaced, and he appeared increasingly irritable.
Gradually, a hint of blood erged under the fingernails of his scratching hand.
Yet due to the dim cave environnt, it wasn’t clearly seen.
Rustle~
Suddenly, a strange noise sounded.
"Water sound? How many tis have I said, pee outside if you must, this is a place where people live!"
Senior Brother abruptly stood up, kicking the firewood in front of him, and scolded angrily.
"No one’s peed, Senior Brother..."
"Where’s the water coming from?"
Soone suddenly noticed their shoes were slightly wet.
"Could it be...that thing caught up to us?"
Unspeakable fear suddenly spread throughout the mountain cave.
