Chapter 81-82: The Great Wilderness Ghost Hand
es.Martial artists of the rivers and lakes avoid demons and monsters, never daring to approach them lightly.Even if news of demons spread throughout Lin'an City, those martial artists would be unlikel...When everyone had left.
Inside the Daoxiong Hall, peace had been restored.
Surrounding candles flickered to life, and in the center, a golden Buddha statue stood with one hand holding a flower and the other raised aloft. Its face bore a compassionate smile.
On either side of the main hall stand the Arhat Bodhisattvas.
The Buddha Shakyamuni sat in full lotus posture, his mind as still as a lake.
“Although I didn't manage to fully unify the Southern Yin Prefecture, having half of it under the control of the World Alliance is enough, isn't it”
He took a deep breath.
With a flick of his wrist, an enigmatic force began to converge upon him from the unseen.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
This power.
For many people, it is very unfamiliar.
As for Shi Mohe, this force was also unfamiliar, but unlike others, though he was encountering it for the first time, he could tell what it was.
Good luck!
After capturing half of the Nanyou Prefecture, Qiyun began to gather around.
According to the records, as long as I gather the Qiyun of Nanyu Mansion, I can allow my soul to undergo a transformation and take the first step towards becoming a divine being through Qiyun!
"Right now, only half of Nan Yu Mansion's Qi Luck remains. Even though it can't allow me to successfully take that step, it can still allow me to make a significant breakthrough based on my current foundation."
Once I break through successfully, even if Shen Changqing possesses a divine ability, he will definitely not be my opponent.
The saying about being sealed by the heavens.
The understanding that Master Maha obtains is merely based on the opportunities he has received in the past.
And this.
...was the method of ancient times.
In ancient times, ancestral lineages remained unbroken. Powerful individuals, with their divine souls undergoing transformation, were able to coalesce Qi and ascend to higher realms.
But since the lineage was broken, those who could make their souls transform became fewer and fewer. In the end, they completely fell into decline.
Shi Mohe recalled the memories in his mind, but he couldn't be sure if they were real or not.
Recording is recording.
Just because something is recorded, doesn't mean it's necessarily correct.
If someone fabricates lies with a pure heart, then there is no reliability in the record.
But.
Based on his own experience and observations within various sites, Shi Mohe can confidently assert that the record aligns closely with reality.
Ancient times.
Indeed, there are people who have achieved the level of "qi cultivation and becoming a god".
>
But after the ancestral line was broken, everyone gradually lost the opportunity for their soul to transform.
Even he.
It is due to various fortunate coincidences that one can be promoted to a Grandmaster.
Otherwise.
It had already completely attained enlightenment over seven hundred years ago, and there would be no chance of being reborn.
shaking head.
The mind of a great enlightened being is always like still water, drawing in energy and focusing it towards itself.
Shen Changqing had divine powers in his hands.
>
In his opinion, the other party should have also received the ancient inheritance.
But regardless.
Occupying half of Nanyou Mansion's qi, there are ultimately benefits to it.
In comparison.
Shen Changqing was nominally the garrison commander of Nanyou Mansion, but he had no ability to gather the Qi of Nanyou Mansion.
The reason is very simple.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated! I'm happy to help.
The other party is a subject of the Qin Dynasty.
Even though Nanyoufu has its own aura, it is still the aura of Qin. It has nothing to do with him.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
As for the Heavenly Alliance.
From the moment it was founded, it had already broken free from the shackles of the Qin Dynasty.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
So.
While the Mahāyāna Bodhisattva could condense his own Qi, he didn't believe that Shen Changqing could do the same.
He already had an advantage from the start.
Here is the text translated to English: >>Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Someone is plundering the Qi of the Great Qin!"
Within the Imperial Palace, the moment Master Maha moved his Qi to cultivate, Gu Xuanji seemed to have a sudden epiphany.
>
At that moment.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
He was consumed by a raging fury.
That kind of feeling.
It's just like seeing the thief with your own eyes, entering your home and stealing important things.
First time.
Gu Xuanji immediately thought of Nanyu Mansion.
Although the barbarians invaded Daxing Prefecture and occupied half of its territory, they did not understand the principle of Qi circulation. It was impossible for them to steal the Qi fortune of Daxing Prefecture.
As for the Great Zhou, although they are currently attacking Lu'an Prefecture, there have been no significant developments so far.
"The only possibility is the Southern Yin Mansion.”
That powerful being from eight hundred years ago.
It itself is a matter of inconceivable coincidence.
If you say.
The opponent possesses methods for plundering one's Qi. Ancient Xuanji also believes this to be true.
And.
If the other party can plunder one's Qi Luck, then it makes sense that they would create a world alliance and openly rebel.
He wanted to emulate the powerhouses of ancient times, condensing their qi and achieving godhood.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Humph, you're quite the shrewd planner!"
Gu Xuanji's eyes were as cold as ice, piercing to the bone.
If he wasn't himself bound to the capital, he would have gone there long ago and given Shi Mohe a good smack.
But there's no way.
>
Even knowing that the other party was stealing Qin's Qi right now, Gu Xuanji couldn't make a move himself.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Sakyamuni Buddha only had a minor problem.
The real trouble is still waiting for itself.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
Now is the time to act.
Only give the enemy a chance.
“It’s a pity, if it weren’t for my own limitations, they wouldn’t have been able to run amok until now!”
Gu Xuanji's eyes were cold.
Finally, the coldness in his eyes subsided, and he shook his head helplessly.
There is gain, there is loss.
There are some things that you have no choice about.
"Here comes!"
"Your Majesty, what is your command!"
A eunuch walked in from outside, and the originally somewhat dim study suddenly became much brighter.
Gu Xuanji said: "I want the latest news from Nanyou Mansion, delivered to me within five days."
“I obey your command!”
>
The eunuch bowed and withdrew.
When the bedroom door was closed, the study became dark again.
>
Riding on Tian Kui.
The other party's speed was no slower than that of a master traveling at full speed, especially when they could fly, which saved a lot of unnecessary detours.
That's it.
Shen Changqing returned to the Po Shan City in about a day.
Back to Broken Mountain City.
His first thought was to find Ji Tianlu and the others.
Inside the main hall.
Several town guards of the Broken Mountain City, as well as Fu Lan, were all present there.
The difference is.
The original Xun Qu, has become a stranger.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
A middle-aged man who looked somewhat older, but was quite elegant and handsome.
> Mú Qīng!
The third garrison commander of Pushan City.
When Shen Changqing arrived, the other party was already seated outside, so this was also the first time he had seen the real person.
However.
At first sight of Mu Qing.
His mind involuntarily conjured up the other person's name and identity.
“This must be Mu Qing, the general guarding Paoping Town!”
Let me know if you'd like me to translate something else!
"Mù Qīng has met Shén Zhèn shǒu!"
Mu Qing cupped his fists and smiled.
He had been away for many years. This time it was his turn to come back while Xun Qu guarded the border town, giving him the time to return and lay siege to Mount Shan.
As soon as the result returned, Shen Changqing left.
Mù Qīng duò yǐ wéi, zì jǐ duǎn shí jiān nèi, shì méiyǒu gēn duì fāng pèng miàn de jī huì le.
... but I didn't expect it.
It's just a matter of days before we meet again.
"Shen Changqing smiled faintly. 'Marshal Mu's name, Shen has also heard it thunderously. Now that I see him, I am deeply honored.'"
“Shen Zhen, you’re being too serious!”
Mú Qīngfù smiled.
It was nice to meet you.
Chen Changqing got straight to the point: "I won't beat around the bush. I believe you all already know about what happened in Nanmen City, right"
>
"News about the Celestial Guard has already arrived."
Ji Tianlu replied.
The South Gate City wasn't too far from the Broken Mountain City. Since the Skywatchers had a special urgent report method, they had already sent the news ahead before Shen Changqing returned.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
The moment I received the news.
He was also a bit surprised.
Ji Tianlu couldn't have imagined that Shen Changqing would go to Numen City so quickly, and he made a promise with Mohali in the blink of an eye.
According to his plan.
Things didn't develop that way at all.
“Shen Zhen, you made a pact with Shi Mohe. Are you absolutely certain of victory in the coming battle a year from now”
Ji Tianlu's brow furrowed.
Leaving Nanyou Mansion is no small matter.
Shen Changqing won in everything, but if he stopped, the trouble would be enormous.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Even if the opponent is a Grandmaster, I'm afraid the court side wouldn't easily give up.
"Things that will happen in a year, we'll talk about them next year. Right now, the Southern Border Prefecture is already plagued by demons and monsters. With the addition of the Worldly Alliance causing chaos, it will only make the situation more complicated."
Right now, I've got everyone in Nansha City working full-tilt to clear out all the demons and monsters within their jurisdiction.
Then, break the mountain city should also do this.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing said faintly.
Additionally, I want a file of cases over the years where there have been suspected demonic disturbances but the culprits were never found.
>
"Okay."
Ji Tianlu replied without hesitation.
Upon seeing this.
Shen Changqing said: "Within three months, I will ensure that all demons within the jurisdiction of Pushan City are eradicated. In addition, all sects must pay close attention. If any sect shows signs of relocating, intercept them immediately."
"If they leave on their own accord, then treat them as rebellious and suppress them by force."
No problem.
Ji Tianlu nodded again.
The other party's actions were intended to prevent any further sects from independently joining the Heavenly Alliance.
That's it.
Although it will cause some backlash.
But judging by Shen Zhen's attitude, he doesn't seem to care about those criticisms.
That's it.
He wouldn't waste his words.
When I was in Nanhai City, I forgot to tell Yunzun. You can also pass this on to Nanhai City. As long as no sects move or leave, just ignore it for now. The next three months will focus on eradicating demons.
>
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Just leave everything else alone.
Shen Changqing made the final decision.
This is what you asked for:
Let me know if I can help with anything else!
Let's deal with the demon problem first, and then we can do other things.
If one is not at ease within, how can one be at ease without
As for the question of whether the full-scale eradication of demons by the Demon Suppression Division would lead to an end to demon activity in Nanyu Mansion from then on, he had no worries whatsoever.
If demons could be eradicated, they wouldn't cause so much trouble for the Qin Dynasty.
Having the Demon Suppression Office go and purge them is only a way to minimize the impact of demonic havoc in the short term.
> Wait until the world alliance is resolved.
...and the Nether Prison was successfully built.
If there are more demons causing trouble, we can just find another way to deal with them.
These things.
Shen Changqing was well-prepared.
“Also, I need to leave the Nan You Mansion of the Town Demon Division for some time and return to the capital. If there are any problems, please trouble Zhen Shou with communication on the side of Nan Hai City.”
I don't expect you to make great achievements, just don't commit any wrongdoings.
In the vast, empty chamber, dim candles flickered on the walls. Their flames, instead of a normal warm glow, pulsed with an eerie oily green, sending a shiver down one's spine.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
...in the middle of the room.
The ground was etched with a dizzying array of patterns, those emanating an otherworldly glow, eventually converging into one.
Black mist, slowly rising.
A crimson color suddenly appeared from the black mist. Looking closely, one could faintly discern that the crimson was a pair of eyes.
But in the face of the black mist.
This is an example of HTML tags being present in text.
The Martial Emperor had already donned a new mask and bowed deeply: "Martial Emperor greets Your Excellency!"
How is everything going
A raspy voice, echoed from the black mist.
Hearing this.
The Martial Emperor fell silent for a moment, then said, "I failed!"
Then he spoke.
The black mist writhed violently, causing the entire chamber to tremble slightly. A terrifying power emanated from within, pressing down heavily on Emperor Wu.
That's it.
Even the Martial Emperor didn't dare to use his power to resist, he could only bow his head and silently endure.
Very soon, the physical body shattered.
Blood flowed out of the wound.
A moment later.
That terrifying pressure finally disappeared, and a hoarse voice came from inside again.
"I want an explanation!"
"The Demon Suppression Division suddenly gained a master of the Grandmaster realm, and this person could even summon the power of heavenly thunder. My subordinates were caught off guard and heavily injured by the lightning strike, along with all the accompanying demons, who perished in the thunderbolt."
The Martial Emperor allowed his physical body to recover on its own, and slowly said.
Upon hearing this.
The crimson eyes flickered.
"Grandmaster—"
“This world and heaven are already in a state of broken lineage. To be able to achieve breaking limits under such circumstances, you indeed have great potential, but reaching this point is the limit. Further growth will be as difficult as ascending to heaven.”
As for the means of summoning lightning from the heavens, if I'm not mistaken, it's through a divine ability!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
A raspy voice, rose and fell at a steady pace in the dimly lit chamber.
But the Martial Emperor was obviously taken aback.
Divine powers.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
This was the first time he had heard this name.
"May I ask, sir, what exactly is divine power"
"Divinity is a means to seize the power of Heaven and Earth's creation. It's not something ordinary people can master, and only when you reach the realm of Great Masters, as you call it, can you begin to use the power of divinity."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
A raspy voice spoke.
Then.
He explained it again.
As long as the ancestral lineage remains unbroken, there should be powerful beings in this realm. It wouldn't be strange if divine abilities were left behind. Even if divine abilities exist, they probably wouldn't be particularly powerful.
“I wonder, sir, if you would be willing to bestow upon me divine powers. If so, I shall certainly sweep through the Demon Suppression Bureau!”
The Martial Emperor respectfully said.
After learning about the immense power of divine abilities, his heart began to stir with ambition.
Originally.
There are actually such methods in the world.
Recalling Shen Changqing's summoning of the heavenly thunder, it was indeed incredibly powerful.
If there is no thunder.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
The Martial Emperor believes.
Even if their own people couldn't kill Shen Changqing, they wouldn't be able to be defeated by the other party to the point of almost total annihilation.
A hoarse voice said, “You haven't ascended to the Grandmaster realm, so logically you are not qualified to use divine abilities. But since your body carries the blood of our clan, wielding divine abilities is barely acceptable.”
Fine, then I'll just send you a divine technique.
>
But I don't want to hear any more bad news. If you still can't do well, then don't blame me!
"Rest assured, sir. I will surely destroy the Demon Suppression Division and dismantle the Qin Dynasty!"
The Martial Emperor suppressed the excitement in his heart and replied solemnly.
As soon as the words left her mouth.
>
> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The room fell silent all at once.
Only black mist rippled there, as if something were being nurtured within it.
Suddenly.
>
A beam of blood light burst from the black mist and shot towards the Martial Emperor.
Blood light was incredibly fast. He didn't even have time to react before seeing the blood light disappear into his brain.
And then.
A surge of memories, like waves crashing in the mind.
Feeling that memory.
The expression behind the mask of Emperor Wu had become somewhat vacant.
It was a long time.
He then digested that memory completely.
It is now.
A raspy voice said, "What I impart to you is the Great Desolate Ghost Hand, a seventh-rank divine ability of my clan. As long as you diligently cultivate this divine ability, with your strength, unless a great demon appears, no one will be able to withstand you."
"Thank you, sir, for your method!"
The Martial Emperor's voice was filled with excitement.
As his words fell, the crimson eyes vanished, and the black mist gradually dissipated.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
That's it.
The Martial Emperor remained standing still, silently reviewing the memories in his mind.
“Nine levels of supernatural powers, if one can enter the realm of the seventh level, their own strength can be increased by 80%!”
"If I could get in, who else in the world could stop me!"
Beneath his mask, a cold smile played upon his lips.
Before he had contact with divine abilities, Wuhou didn't understand just how powerful they truly were.
Only after truly experiencing divine powers did he understand just how terrifyingly powerful they could be.
The supernatural powers are divided into nine grades, and the seventh-grade supernatural power can only be ranked third from the bottom.
Even so.
Once you've mastered the basics, its application can amplify your own power by eighty percent.
If it reaches a state of completion, the power borrowed by the seventh-rank supernatural powers will be even more terrifying.
The Martial Emperor believes.
If one can bring the Demonic Desolation Hand to perfection, no one in the world will be able to stop them.
Even the Eastern Emperor and that Qin Emperor were probably not opponents they could match themselves.
As for Shen Changqing and Shi Mohe.
Then there's no need to say more.
Immediately.
The Martial Emperor then left the secret chamber.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Upon entering the inner hall, he saw a man dressed similarly to himself, wearing a ferocious mask, standing there with his arms crossed.
If anyone were present, they would surely be unable to tell who the Eternal Alliance Leader was.
"How did you get here!"
The Martial Emperor's voice was low.
Upon hearing this.
That man chuckled softly: “The higher-ups are very dissatisfied with the results of your actions, so I came to help. I didn't expect that a small place like the Nanyu Mansion would cause you to fail miserably, and even expose your true identity.”
To tell the truth, even I am curious. The former head of the Martial Pavilion, a renowned powerhouse of the Demon Suppression Agency, why did he betray the agency and join the demon clan
"Some things, you shouldn't meddle in. This seat is also curious, who exactly are you!"
The gaze emanating from the Martial Emperor's mask had turned icy cold.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
In the Eternal Alliance.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
He wasn't the only one of his allies.
But.
This secret is known only to the leader of the Eternal Alliance.
And the rest of them all just thought that the Eternal Alliance only had one leader.
My identity has been exposed.
For Wu Huang, it was just one less layer of protection.
So.
If possible, he also hoped to know the identity of this immortal alliance leader standing before him.
That person smiled faintly: "You may have the opportunity to know it in the future. This seat wants to ask you, what are your plans for Nanyou Mansion now"
“Shi Mohe and Shen Changqing have already made an agreement that they will not clash in the short term. Instead, they will focus on cleaning up the demons in their respective territories. If we intervene at this time, we will only be attacked by both sides.”
So, I plan to temporarily ignore the affairs of Nanyu Mansion. I will wait until they both exhaust themselves in their conflict and then reap the benefits.
The Martial Emperor said faintly.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Upon hearing this.
>
That man said, "Why is Emperor Wu so cautious now How about you and I join forces, first eliminate one person, then the other"
“You want to die, go ahead! But I won't accompany you. Since you're here, deal with matters here first. I have injuries and need to retreat for cultivation.”
The Martial Emperor let out a cold snort.
After throwing out a sentence, he turned and left.
>
In public.
There can only be one Eternal Alliance leader, and if the other party arrives, then there's no need for me to show myself.
If it were a normal time, Emperor Wu wouldn't retreat so easily.
But now it is different.
I just got the divine power, Great Wilderness Ghost Hand, and I happen to have injuries. If someone is willing to take my place, then it couldn't be better.
When his injuries have healed and his supernatural powers are complete.
Any obstacle is nothing but a chicken and dog.
Watching the Martial Emperor leave, that person said nothing and made no attempt to stop him.
Only when the other person's figure completely disappeared did a slight chuckle come from behind the mask.
It's a bit cold, and there's also a hint of disdain.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"It seems that Shen Changqing and Master Maha are indeed extraordinary. However, it is also understandable. Being able to break through limits and advance to the Grandmaster level is not something ordinary people can achieve."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The man muttered to himself.
He also temporarily put this matter aside.
The invitation to have the Martial Emperor take action and eliminate the two was merely a casual remark, intended to gauge the Martial Emperor's attitude and indirectly assess the strength of the two individuals once more.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The result is obvious.
The Martial Emperor was already deeply wary of the Southern Nether Residence.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"The Nanyu Mansion cannot be moved for now. If we want to take action, we can only do it from elsewhere."
The man thought to himself.
Although I believe the Martial Emperor is not qualified to compare with me, I have to admit that his strength is extraordinary as he became the leader of the Eternal Alliance.
It can make the other party fear.
He won't rush to fight Shen Changqing and Shi Mohe to the death.
The Nine Prefectures of Great Qin.
There is no need to fixate on just one Nan You Mansion.
Leaving Pushan City, Shen Changqing rode Tiankui, already directly leaving the range of Nanyou Mansion and heading towards the capital.
Today's Tiankui.
Under the nourishment of a vast amount of energy, its power underwent another transformation.
From the Innate realm, he leaped into the Grandmaster realm.
The two meat buns behind
are now very obvious.
Shen Changqing felt that it wouldn't be long before Tian Kui could formally enter the mature stage and become a martial artist comparable to the peak of a master.
Within the heavenly realm.
It takes dozens or even hundreds of years for a celestial being to reach maturity. It's impossible to do it any faster.
But beside him, Tian Kui shortened this time by a hundredfold or more.
The reason is...
Every drop of the Grandmaster's blood was equivalent to a heaven-defying treasure. Tian Kui swallowed it day and night, growing at an astonishingly fast rate.
When the world is united.
Since there were only two Grandmasters, a situation like Tian Kui was quite special.rwhelming divine power erupted, wanting to seize control of that suction force, but although the released divine power was powerful, it had no way to break free at all.That's it.He watched helplessly...
