Chapter 203: Peerless Divine Soldiers
monic fiends. Slaying them grants you kill points.As for the unlocked panel new features.> However, there are two possibilities.First, the panel lacks new features. Second, demons won't break free fro...Half a month!
It took a whole month.
Shen Changqing stayed in his small courtyard the entire time, not taking a single step outside.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
During that time.
Someone wanted to visit, but was stopped by the protective barrier covering the small courtyard.
That level of shield, with the current strength of humankind, is impossible to break.
Besides.
The protective barrier set by this general of the Qin Dynasty, who would dare to make a move
If the other party blames you, then it will be a big problem.
In the eyes of others, the most important person in Qin Dynasty naturally was the current Emperor Qin, Gu Xing.
But in the eyes of those top-tier powerhouses, the true master of Qin now is not Gu Xing, but Shen Changqing.
If there was any debate before, then after the other party single-handedly wiped out all the powerful beings of the demon race, no one would disagree with this anymore.

Shen Changqing's current fist is the biggest.
Therefore.
For half a month.
Before he took a step, no one came to disturb him.
In the courtyard.
The original Zan-Saint blade now seems to have completely transformed.
The pale gold blade was devoid of any golden hue, replaced by a dark, almost iron-like color.
At first glance.
It would not attract much attention even if it were dropped on the ground.

However.
The content within the tags is "
". Therefore, the translated output is:
Only when one truly perceives the power within can they understand the terrifying might of this blade.
"He's a sixth-rank Dao soldier!"
Shen Changqing's face was solemn.
Training Dao Bing was much more difficult than he had imagined.
I have collected the blood of many powerful beings, with dozens of those from the late stages of the Divine Realm alone. I also possess some blood from Divine Kings.
>
Even after the divine blood was completely absorbed by Zhanshen Dao, the opponent only barely grew to a sixth-grade Dao weapon. To reach the seventh grade, there was still a long way to go.
I thought.
After consuming all its stock, the Dao Bing can grow to the seventh rank.
Now it seems that I took things for granted.
Now.
Shen Changqing now understood the sacrifices and the countless hours of effort those powers who possessed eight-, nine-, or even higher-ranked Dao soldiers had made to cultivate them.
Based on the current situation.
To promote the Zhanshen Dao to a seventh-rank Dao weapon, he would have to slay several more divine kings.
The problem is.
After slaying several divine kings, the seven-grade dao weapon that ascended was only comparable to a powerhouse who had just entered the realm of a Heavenly God King.
“Several divine kings exchanged for one heavenly king, it seems that the cultivation of celestial soldiers is not so simple!”
Shen Changqing shook his head helplessly.
Unless a real war erupts, it's not easy to kill even a few God Kings under normal circumstances.
After all, behind every God King, there are many forces involved.
One thing affects everything.
To promote the Zhanshen Dao to a seventh-grade weapon is not as easy as imagined.
But upon closer thought, he also felt it was reasonable.
If seventh-rank Dao soldiers could really be cultivated so easily, then the seventh-rank Dao soldiers among the myriad races of the heavens would not be so rare.
In most clans, it would be considered a great achievement to have one or two seventh-rank Dao soldiers.
For the strong families.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Seventh-rank Dao soldiers are even more out of reach.
Grip the hilt.
Shen Changqing felt the surging power from the blade. Although it was only a sixth-rank Dao weapon, coupled with his own strength, it was enough to unleash formidable power.
Although it's only a sixth-rank, it'll do for now!
He nodded in satisfaction.
Although the Sixth Rank Dao Soldier was a bit lacking, it was one raised by his own hand. In terms of compatibility, it surpassed any other Dao Soldier.
That way.
Even at the sixth rank, the power he could unleash would be comparable to that of a seventh rank.
Then.
Shen Changqing touched the palm of his hand on the blade. The flesh and blood suddenly split open, and a chaotic stream of blood surged out, directly winding around the blade.
Blood and Qi are nurtured!
Once upon a time, the Zhansheng Dao was too fragile and couldn't withstand its own power.
>
But things are different now.
Although the 6th Rank Dao soldiers aren't particularly powerful, they have no problem simply enduring the force of Qi and Blood.
Therefore.
Now what he had to do was nurture this Dao weapon with his own life force and essence.
It's not necessary for them to be directly promoted to the seventh rank, but making a significant leap forward within the sixth rank would also be excellent.
As qi and blood surged in, the Zhansheng Saber trembled violently.
Shen Changqing's bodily essence and blood power was more abundant and vast than all the divine blood combined before him.
Let's just talk about the physical body.
Within the realm of God King, few can compare to it.
Therefore.
The power of qi and blood within his physical body was also particularly powerful.
Boom!
The space hummed incessantly.
Only to see the vast chaotic blood essence being absorbed by the blade, the Zhansheng Dao violently trembled, countless terrifying sword qi overflowing from it, causing the space it reached to shatter inch by inch.
Suddenly —
A earth-shattering blade aura, in an instant broke through the barrier's blockade, surging straight into the sky above Qing Ming.
>
In that moment.
The sound of swords clashing filled the air.
Whether within the borders of the Great Qin or in the wild and untamed regions, all could hear the pleasant ringing of blades echoing in their ears.
Some experts in the way of the sword, upon hearing the sound of a blade singing, would involuntarily enter a state of sudden enlightenment.
Boom——
A powerful aura erupted.
Within the Heavenly Blade Sect, Wu Que suddenly opened his eyes, sharp blade qi shooting out from within them.
Poof!
Two deep holes were left directly on the pillar three zhang away.
"I broke through!"
A smile graced his stern face.
For several years, I have been in seclusion, tirelessly seeking ways to break through to the ultimate realm.
Just now.
A deafening clang of swords echoed through the air.
The bottleneck, which was already somewhat loose, broke through successfully.
>
Thus far.
> Now, it officially entered the realm of extremes.
This realm.
Even decades ago, he was already considered the pinnacle of the martial arts world. Even now, he is still a first-rate expert.
"I wonder where that sword cry came from, to possess such divine charm. If I could have the opportunity again, perhaps this seat could directly ascend to the celestial realm!"
Wu Que's face held a touch of regret.
It's a pity.
This chance encounter came suddenly and disappeared just as quickly.
Otherwise.
Then one has hope of attaining enlightenment and becoming a celestial being.
If we say that the current top tier in the martial arts world belongs to the peak, but there are still some who surpass it, then the Heavenly Human Realm is truly the pinnacle.
Since the perfection of martial arts.
True masters who can prove themselves worthy of becoming celestial beings are few and far between. Each sect that possesses a celestial being is truly a supreme and unparalleled force.
If he could prove his success, Wu Que believed that the three words Tiandao Gate would definitely resound throughout Qin.
But that's how I think.
He didn't regret it for too long.
After all, it is not easy to obtain the opportunity for a breakthrough. If you really want to achieve enlightenment and become a celestial being in one go, it seems impossible.
Leaving the secluded chamber.
As soon as Wu Que came out, the disciple guarding the door of the secret room bowed and said, "Master has left the seclusion!"
"Hmm."
Wu Que nodded slightly, then ordered: "Let the elders currently inside the hall come to see me."
"The disciple obeys!"
In the main hall.
Wu Que, having successfully passed the exit checkpoint, sat there. To his left and right were a number of elders from the Heavenly Blade Sect.
Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!
"Master, have you successfully broken through when leaving the customs"
An elder cupped his hands and asked.
Wu nodded. "Yes, this seat has already succeeded in breaking through."
As soon as these words were spoken.
Everyone's faces were filled with joy.
They were well aware that the opponent had originally been a master of large-scale techniques, and now after further breakthroughs, they had reached the realm of the extreme.
Since the establishment of the martial arts academy and the transmission of the general outline of martial arts throughout the world.
The past boundary divisions have already been completely overturned, all using the new grading system.
Previous peaks like Master's Pinnacle and Master's Zenith have already been replaced by Grandmaster's Apex and Limitless Realm.
Decades ago, the master's peak.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Now, the strongest in this world.
In the martial arts world, they are all top-tier figures.
"Congratulations to the Sect Leader on successfully breaking through. Now that our Heavenly Blade Sect has a Limitless Realm cultivator as its leader, no other sect in Guangyuan Prefecture will be able to stand against us!"
Xiao Bo expressed his congratulations.
As a genius of the Heavenly Blade Sect, after twenty or thirty years, he has successfully advanced to the rank of Grandmaster and is now among the elders.
Hearing this, the other elders all chimed in with congratulations.
Xiao Bo is right.
Wu Que's power reached its peak, and in Guangyuan Mansion, no force within the martial world could rival him except for the imperial court.
Looking at the other sects, although they have a few grand masters, none of them have reached the realm of extreme limits.
Although the territory of Qin is now peaceful, strife within the martial world shows no signs of abating.
...Especially when Qi is weak.
All resources have become extremely scarce.
Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
When resources are scarce, there will be competition.
Now that the Tiandao Gate has a master at the Extreme Realm, they can suppress all other sects and factions, gaining more resources and cultivating even more powerful individuals.
This is a virtuous cycle, the foundation for the growth of a school.
"A while back, that sound of a blade ringing out, you all heard it, didn't you"
Wu Que looked at everyone, his face calm.
An elder nodded: “We heard it, and some disciples in the sect, after hearing the sound of the sword, fell into a state of self-realization and their strength increased somewhat.”
“This seat wants you to find the source of the blade’s cry, and see if you can control this opportunity in the hands of my Heavenly Blade Sect. If so, then my Heavenly Blade Sect will have a chance to become the number one sect in the world!”
Wu Que directly issued the order.
Upon hearing this, the elders including Xiao Bo looked at each other and then unanimously accepted the order.
Barren.
Inside the barbarian hall.
Mǎn Shén's tightly shut eyes suddenly opened, and the bronze giant axe standing beside him trembled slightly.
"Master, a peerless artifact has been born!"
A heavy voice boomed.
Man Shen looked at the giant axe before him. From the other's words, he heard a faint trace of fear.
"Peerless divine weapon!"
Recalling the ringing of swords that had just reached his ears, and now coupled with the words from the bronze giant axe, Manshen began to understand.
Something that could make even a third-rank Daoist weapon so fearful and wary, wouldn't even be possible for a fourth-rank Daoist weapon.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Therefore.
The soldiers who were born into the world, at least five ranks or above.
"Can you roughly sense which level the soldiers who emerged from birth are at"
The Man of Great Powers asked.
Upon hearing this.
The bronze giant axe trembled again: "I can't detect anything, I can only sense that the aura is incredibly strong, far surpassing mine. Such an aura I have only felt once before, within the Heavenly Origin Seal."
Heavenly Origin Seal!
Man Shen's face turned ashen.
That was the divine weapon in the hands of Emperor Yuan back then, a powerful sixth-rank Dao weapon.
That is to say.
This celestial artifact is similar to the Heavenly Origin Seal, a sixth-grade Dao weapon.
No—
It's more than just a sixth-rank.
>
He could keenly perceive that the sound of swords came from the direction of Qin, although Qin was extremely far away from here.
It's inevitable that there will be some discrepancies when perceiving things from such a distance.
“A divine weapon even more powerful than the Heavenly Origin Seal!”
The first person that Man Shen thought of was Shen Changqing.
The direction of the Qin Dynasty.
Even more powerful than the Heavenly Origin Seal.
After much deliberation.
Only that Great Qin Garrison Commander could possibly have had it.
“What kind of fate does one have to possess beyond the heavens, to allow someone to undergo such a drastic change in just under twenty years!”
Raising his head, Man Shen's gaze pierced through the temple walls and directly into the scene within Qing Ming.
He was very curious.
What is the situation outside of heaven
Although it was an ancient deity, its knowledge of the celestial realm was limited.
There's no way.
When the human race's powerful warriors first left Heaven and Earth, they were ambushed by the demonic tribe, followed by a fierce and bloody battle.
From beginning to end.
None have truly journeyed the void.
So, as for what's going on outside the heavens, even Man God is completely clueless.
But there was one thing he could be certain of.
That is, although there are many opportunities in the world, it is also absolutely full of all sorts of dangers.
However.
Shen Changqing could survive from the heavens and his strength had greatly increased. His current strength was much stronger than Shen Changqing when he first left the world.
While the other party may grow, that doesn't mean you won't.
"Looks like I need to find some time to take a trip to the heavens..."
The divine general pondered silently.
The spiritual energy within the world was gradually depleting. Though the barbarians provided a considerable amount of faith, their numbers were too small to make a significant difference. Over these many years, he had been unable to restore his peak power.
As for after he recovered to his peak, let alone becoming a Divine King.
The Trial of the Divine King is very difficult.
That year's emperor, strictly speaking, had not attained enlightenment.
So.
If he stayed here, he wouldn't have much hope of proving his success.
Meanwhile.
Moreover, Man Shen had also conducted some research on the general outlines of martial arts currently prevalent among the human race. He could clearly see that Shen Changqing's path was completely different from the ancient path.
For a moment.
Even the man of great spirit has had thoughts of abandoning Shintoism and taking up the way of martial arts.
>
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
But the thought didn't last long before he dismissed it.
The reason is very simple.
Martial arts have high requirements for spiritual energy.
Now the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is scarce. If you truly want to cultivate martial arts, don't even talk about reaching the Heavenly Cave Realm, it's a question whether you can even enter the Immortal Golden Body Realm.
Let's compare.
In today's environment, martial arts have no room for growth at all, nowhere near as reliable as Shinto.
According to the barbarian god's imagination.
He originally planned to first recover his strength, then resolve the crisis of the demon clan, and then find a way to go to the outside world to see if he could find an opportunity to become a divine king.
As for what he planned to do about the crisis facing the demon clan, he hadn't given it a thought.
Unable to overcome the crisis.
There is only one path left—death.
There isn't a second possibility at all.
This is a simple example of how to use HTML tags in text.
For instance, you can use the `
` tag to create a paragraph.
Now that the demon race has been exterminated, it wouldn't be a problem for me to leave this world.
However, for the sake of caution.
Even the mighty god did not immediately set out.
My own strength hasn't recovered yet, and I have to wait until it reaches its peak before considering the next step.
After all—
The outer heavens hold many unknowns, and with my strength not yet recovered, venturing in rashly could lead to unforeseen dangers.
"If I have time, I really need to have a good chat with Shen Changqing!"
His eyes flickered.
The other party has returned from afar and must be very familiar with the current situation.
It would be of great benefit to oneself to obtain some information from the other party.
Immediately.
Man Shen closed his eyes again and ignored everything else.
Even the best Dao soldiers are good.
Even the world's most powerful warrior.
Now I don't have anything to do with him.
The threat of the demon clan has been eliminated. Now, what I need to do is focus all my efforts on restoring my cultivation to its peak from ten thousand years ago.
By then.
Only then is there a possibility of impacting the God King realm.
A sound of a blade rang through heaven and earth.
Immediately, clouds gathered from all directions.
But in the small courtyard, Shen Changqing was indifferent.
His attention was now entirely focused on the Zhanshen Blade.
The blade of the Zhansheng Dao now seems slightly less black, with a faint hint of gray.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
A greyish mist seemed to shroud it, as if etched there. It evoked a sense of mystery.
Here's the translation, keeping the HTML tags intact:

"It's a pity... I still couldn't become a seventh-rank Dao Soldier!"
Shen Changqing's face showed a hint of regret.
Even after being infused with his own vital essence, the Zhansheng Blade was still unable to successfully ascend. However, it had grown significantly on top of its sixth-rank Dao weapon status, already considered a powerful existence among sixth-rank Dao weapons.
This is the time.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
The Zhansheng Sword trembled slightly, and a booming voice echoed from within: "I have disappointed my master!"
"Nothing will happen, one day in the future, you will grow to the seventh rank."
This is the HTML tag
and it's content.
Shen Changqing smiled faintly.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
As for the Zanshen Dao being able to speak, it didn't feel out of place.
Any Daoist object is a nurturing ground for spirit. As long as one's spirit grows by even a fraction, they can achieve the ability to speak human words.
Once it grows to the rank of a seventh-grade Dao soldier, it will be able to transform its physical form like Qingyi.
Subsequently.
He added, "You don't have to call me master, just 'Venerable One'!"
The word "master".
Shen Changqing always felt strange.
>
On the contrary, "Your Lordship" as a term of address used by all celestial races is quite suitable.
Here is your translated content:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Next.
He just thought about it, and sent the corresponding message to Tian Kui and Wu Shu as well.
You need to change your words.
Then just change your tune completely.
Yes, my lord!
The Zhansheng Dao vibrated again.
> He doesn't care about any title, after all, he recognized the other as his master from the moment he was born. It was through the opportunities given to him by the other that he achieved what he has today.
Your Lordship is well.
Even the master would do.
To Zhanshengdao, they were all the same.
In the blink of an eye.
Shen Changqing directly canceled the shield covering the small courtyard.
The shield is canceled.
Someone guarding outside the small courtyard saw this scene and immediately reported it.
Soon, the edict from the East arrived.
"Shen Zhen Shou, Dong Fang Zhao has come to pay his respects!"
A gentle voice sounded outside the courtyard.
As soon as he finished speaking.
Just then, the courtyard gate swung open on its own, and a calm voice came from inside.
“Since the Eastern Garrison Commander has arrived, please come in!”
Hearing this.
Dongfang Zhao straightened his clothes and strode inside.
As he entered the courtyard, his gaze immediately fell on the Heaven-Cleaving Sword standing proudly in mid-air.
From the blade of his own body, Dongfang Zhao could feel an extremely sharp and fierce aura.
At that moment.
He instinctively tensed, as if he were being stalked by some terrifying beast.
"Peerless divine weapon!"
Oriental Zao's eyes narrowed.
He never expected that a simple weapon would pose such a great threat to him.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
Noticing his gaze, Shen Changqing faintly smiled and said, "Zhan Sheng Dao, I think Dongfang Zhen should have seen it!"
"Is this the Zhansheng Dao"
Eastern Command's expression twitched.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
How could he have never seen the Heavenly Severing Blade.
In his mind, the Slashing Saint Blade was completely different from the long sword before him. Not only was there a difference in the aura it emitted, but also in its color.
To say that the two have anything in common, it's probably just that they both belong to long swords. That's about it.
Just as Dongfang Zhao was in deep thought, a powerful voice echoed from the Zhan Sheng Dao: "Zhan Sheng greets Dongfang Zhen Shou!"
“Slash the Saint!”
Upon hearing this voice, Dong Fangzhi was once again shocked.
If he still had some doubts before, now after hearing the words of Zhansheng Dao, he would have no more doubts.
Weapons!
>
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Even if it were the most powerful divine weapon.
In the Eastern decree's view, it could only cultivate spirituality and connect with the user's soul.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
>It's like now, being able to speak directly like a human, that goes beyond his comprehension.
After the shock.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Eastern Emperor quickly recovered, a look of wonder on his face: "I never expected divine weapons could grow to such a level. I've been a frog at the bottom of a well!"
Those who attain ranks 2 or 3 among the twelve Daoist soldiers can speak human language. Those who attain rank 7 can transform their bodies to be indistinguishable from ordinary cultivators.
It's a pity that the Zhansheng Dao is only at the sixth rank now, and hasn't truly entered the seventh rank.
"If he can enter the rank of Seven, he will be absolutely comparable to a divine king-level powerhouse!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Shen Changqing added a sentence.
Oh, Divine King!
Eastern Emperor's face could no longer remain composed.
He knew very well what kind of existence the God King was.
Please note that the original content was empty. I've simply retained the HTML tag as requested.
Millennia ago, the God King was the true apex of power.
The most powerful being of the demonic race back then was a living God-King. It was because of this God-King that the human race almost perished ten thousand years ago.
Now, some people tell themselves that a weapon can grow to the level of a God King, how can they not be astonished.
His chest heaved violently.
Dongfang Zhao took a deep breath and asked, "I hear that the God King has four realms. I wonder which realm of the God King is comparable to a seven-rank Dao weapon"
“Seventh-rank Dao soldiers are only equivalent to Heaven and Earth God Kings.”
Shen Changqing shook his head.
He wasn't surprised that Dong Fang Zhao would know about the four realms of the Divine King.
I've told Gu Xing before, it's perfectly normal for the First Emperor to inform Dongfang Zhao.
Subsequently.
Shen Changqing said, "Eastern Town Guard is here. Is there something important"
"The important thing is that there's nothing major, just that not long ago the sound of a ringing blade echoed throughout the heavens and earth. Many swordsmanship masters gained enlightenment from it. Now many martial arts factions are searching for the source of the ringing."
"Looking back now, that sound of sword cries sweeping across the land must have come from here!"r the myriad realms of Zhongtian, it would still be difficult to resist.A terrifying power raged through the void, instantly plunging the once-peaceful space into chaos.A majestic, golden figure of im...
