Chapter 156 Above Immortals: 1 for 1
State capital.
Thousand Household Office.
Upon returning home, Commander Zuo immediately began his seclusion to prepare for a breakthrough in his cultivation.
Having gained much from the battles with the tree demon and the Black Mountain Demon, he naturally needed to process and digest his insights to break through his martial arts cultivation.
"I need to go into seclusion for a period of time."
Zuo Qianhu summoned Yan Chixia and arranged for him to become a centurion, giving him some instructions.
"My lord, I have returned to report."
At that moment, a voice came from outside the door.
It was Xiahou. He rushed over after sending Ning Caichen back.
"Xiahou?"
Yan Chixia was surprised and taken aback when he saw Xiahou.
Xiahou also sensed Yan Chixia's presence and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
"Yan Chixia, what are you doing here?"
Xiahou asked with some doubt.
Yan Chixia laughed and said, "I'm here because I joined the Embroidered Uniform Guard and became a centurion. What are you doing here?"
"..."
Xiahou was furious upon hearing this.
Yan Chixia arrived as a centurion?
I could tell he was resentful.
Left Commander stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Xiahou, Yan Chixia not only cultivates martial arts, but also Taoist magic. With your current skill level, you can't beat him."
"However, I can allow you to spar with each other. If you can last three hundred moves against Yan Chixia, I will promote you to the rank of captain."
These words made Xiahou's eyes light up.
"My lord, a promise is a promise!"
He immediately looked at Yan Chixia, his fighting spirit blazing, and said, "Yan Chixia, come out and fight me. We haven't decided who's the winner yet, but we must settle this today."
"Sigh, then I'll grant your wish."
Yan Chixia shook his head with a wry smile and could only follow them out.
The two fought, but Commander Zuo didn't watch, because the outcome was already predetermined.
Although Xiahou's strength has greatly increased due to his cultivation of the mind technique, he is still no match for Yan Chixia.
As expected, Xiahou was defeated in just a few minutes of the duel.
"So, you've been hiding your true strength all along."
Xiahou stood there, gripping his sword, his expression shifting repeatedly.
In the end, it all turned into a calm, and the original obsession dissipated.
Instead, it gave him a completely new understanding and appreciation of swordsmanship.
"I understand."
Xiahou smiled slightly, and the murderous aura on his body gradually receded into his body, as if he had become a different person.
He bowed to Yan Chixia and said, "Thank you for your mercy all this time, Brother Yan. I will remember it forever."
"It is your good fortune that you were able to awaken."
Yan Chixia looked at Xiahou with relief, finally realizing the truth.
"Come in."
Zuo Qianhu shouted.
The two exchanged a glance, then entered the hall together.
Zuo Qianhu was holding a pile of books, which were clearly martial arts manuals.
What surprised Yan Chixia the most was that there were actually quite a few magic manuals on it.
"Maoshan magic?"
"Lefa?"
Yan Chixia asked, both surprised and delighted, "My lord, are these perhaps for everyone to cultivate with?"
"You guessed right, it is indeed for everyone to cultivate."
Zuo Qianhu nodded and stated his plan directly.
He took out Maoshan magic and various martial arts manuals, intending to spread them.
It will be passed down, including the "Martial Arts Manual" that he practiced.
This will strengthen the human race and make them unafraid of the threat of demons.
Even if you kill off one batch of demons, a new batch of demons will always be born.
Only when the human race possesses sufficient power to slay or even deter demons can lasting peace and stability be achieved.
Therefore, his plan was to conquer the world with military might.
Martial arts, along with various magical techniques, spread out, and who can cultivate them depends on their own talent and opportunity.
"Go down and observe carefully. If you can comprehend it, then practice it. If you can't comprehend it, don't be discouraged."
After giving his instructions, Commander Zuo dismissed them.
He's going into seclusion now.
... ...
Outside, Yan Chixia, Xiahou, and the other centurions looked at each other, their eyes fixed intently on the pile of martial arts and magic manuals.
"Gentlemen, the lord is too kind to us."
"We must follow you faithfully. Anyone who dares to betray you, I will be the first to kill him."
A centurion warned, his face contorted with rage.
"Our loyalty to Commander Qianhu is as clear as the sun and the moon!"
"That's right!"
"Adults are like our second parents!"
One by one, the others expressed their opinions.
As for Yan Chixia and Xiahou, they exchanged a glance and nodded in unison to make their promise.
After all, such a superior is truly rare in the world.
"I have practiced Taoist arts and have some insights. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me."
Yan Chixia made this decision.
Integrate into this circle, and then contribute your own strength.
He even decided to write down all the Taoist techniques he knew and pass them on.
Just as Lord Qianhu said, even if martial arts manuals and Taoist techniques are the most precious, it would be a tragedy if they could not be passed down.
Is it not better for everyone to attain enlightenment and the Dharma than for everyone to be weak and bullied and slaughtered by demons?
And so, with Yan Chixia joining in and giving guidance...
The cultivation level of the more than one thousand people in this branch of the Thousand Households is increasing day by day.
Several people successfully comprehended the Daoist teachings and mastered a magical art.
Or perhaps someone has successfully mastered Maoshan talismanic arts and can draw yellow talismans.
Everyone is making rapid progress.
The same goes for Yan Chixia. After comprehending Maoshan Taoist techniques and even mastering thunder magic, his strength increased greatly, allowing him to break through his original realm in one fell swoop.
Now, if Yan Chixia were to fight the Tree Demon Granny, he wouldn't need any other assistance; he could easily kill her in a one-on-one battle.
Previously, it might have been a bit of a stretch; at most, it could have severed the tree demon's cultivation of several hundred years.
Everyone is making progress, and as the leader, Commander Zuo naturally won't fall behind.
On this day, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from the Thousand Household Office.
"Ok?"
Yan Chixia, who was cultivating, suddenly woke up and flew onto the roof in a flash.
Xiahou also arrived, standing aside with a serious expression as he looked at the backyard of the Thousand Households Office.
"It is Lord Commander."
Xiahou said excitedly.
Yan Chixia nodded and sighed, "Judging from this aura, Lord Qianhu's cultivation has reached a new level, beyond my comprehension."
"Perhaps even terrestrial immortals and gods are no more than this?"
This was Yan Chixia's direct feeling; even his primordial spirit felt waves of suffocation.
This shows just how significant the improvement brought about by Zuo Qianhu's breakthrough in cultivation this time was.
Boom~!
A burst of power erupted, but vanished in an instant.
Left Commander slowly opened his eyes in the room, and two divine rays tore through the void.
He sensed his cultivation level briefly and found that he had directly reached the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage in martial arts.
He was just one step away from shattering the vacuum and becoming a true terrestrial deity.
However, perhaps because the order of heaven and earth had collapsed, he felt as if his path ahead was blocked.
Otherwise, he would have already broken through the Golden Core realm of martial arts and stepped into the realm of terrestrial immortals.
"Forget it, with my current strength, I should be considered invincible, right?"
Zuo Qianhu pondered thoughtfully.
He is invincible in the world; no one can rival him.
Because he is now confident that even if a real immortal came, he could still achieve a one-for-one exchange.
This is the principle of "one for one above the immortals, invincible below the immortals."
"Next, we need to deal with the centipede demon Pudu Cihang and then eliminate all demons in the world."
As he spoke, Commander Zuo got up and walked out.
He picked up the longsword from the side, opened the door, and walked out.
"See my lord!"
"Congratulations on your mastery of divine skills."
A group of Imperial Guards bowed and offered their congratulations.
Zuo Qianhu nodded: "Get up, everyone. You've all performed well during this period, and your strength has increased significantly."
"It's all thanks to Lord Qianhu's cultivation!"
Everyone gave the same answer, their eyes filled with fervor and awe as they looked at the commander before them.
"Report!"
Just then, a member of the Imperial Guard rushed in carrying an order.
"Reporting to Commander Qian, the Garrison Commander has given a secret order."
He took a secret order, opened it, and examined it.
"Ok?"
After reading the secret order, Commander Zuo's eyes narrowed immediately.
The secret order instructed him to lead a team of Imperial Guards to escort the prisoner, Minister of War Fu Tianchou, back to the capital.
"Haha~~"
Zuo Qianhu smiled.
finally come.
Fu Tianchou was framed and his home was confiscated, and he was imprisoned.
He is currently being held in the state jail.
Meanwhile, the garrison commander sent a secret order, instructing him to lead men to escort Fu Tianchou back to the capital.
"Brothers, gather everyone from the Thousand Households Office. I will take you to the capital to seek better benefits for you all."
Commander Zuo immediately issued the order.
"As ordered!"
Everyone was excited and went down to prepare.
Upon receiving the order, all 1,100 Jinyiwei (Imperial Guards) in the Qianhu Office were mobilized.
