e of the Zhu Feng Divine Clan was somewhat lacking, they still managed to hold back a good number of God Kings.>As the Heavenly Pride of the Imperial Shrine, Fang Shen, even fought five Rule God Kings...The Softheart Armor: Crafted from the pelts of ferocious beasts and forged by countless skilled artisans, it can withstand the erosion of some malevolent energy. It can neutralize up to eighty percent of the power of martial artists below the Grandmaster level, while for those at the Grandmaster level and above, it can neutralize between five and thirty percent of their power. Moreover, its defense is unparalleled, impervious to even extraordinary divine weapons.

A brief introduction.

This piece of armor is powerful.

Cancels the power of eight out of ten masters and below. As long as your strength is not too weak, then among those beneath a master, you would be practically invincible.

And to offset the power of a master from five to three points is also very powerful.

What is power

Qi and blood are power.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

True Qi is power.

>

Both cleaving with a knife and chopping with an axe are acts of force.

It can offset a certain amount of power, which is equivalent to a comprehensive reduction in damage.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

It is said to be Baojia.

That's perfectly reasonable.

That's all.

From the introduction to the Soft Shell Crab, Shen Changqing could also see it.

This armor's upper limit isn't high, it's only really useful for the average Grandmaster.

...a martial artist at the peak of a Grandmaster's level.

Soft nails have little use.

Therefore.

He didn't mean to take away the soft shell.

Going to Luoyang City on your own, you'll be facing a demonic entity capable of threatening the Prefect. What use is a mere Soft-Hearted Armor against such a foe

The only function.

It's possible that it acts to counteract the invasion of negative energy.

However.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The physical body reaches the Great Sun Furnace.

and in the dantian, it condenses into a golden elixir of great sun.

Shen Changqing asked himself, he didn't need any soft-heartedness, nor did he need to resist the erosion of sinister energy.

He possesses the very power that serves as the best defense against sinister and malevolent energies.

The list has both soft armor like that of a mantis shrimp and powerful weapons.

>

Even.

Chen Changqing was still there, and he had found a long saber that was even stronger than the Cold Moon Blade.

However.

He did not redeem that long sword.

Leng Yue Dao was something he had become accustomed to. There was a feeling of spiritual kinship, as if they were connected on some level. Unless there was a divine weapon far stronger than Leng Yue Dao, Shen Changqing would never consider parting with it.

Page after page.

His gaze swept across it.

For a long time.

Shen Changqing closed the list and looked at the elder in front of him: "How many Dragon-Tiger Pills, Heavenly Origin Pills, and Nine Suns Pills are left in the Demon Slayer Hall now"

Upon hearing this.

The elder pondered for a moment, “There’s only one bottle of Dragon-Tiger Pill left. As for Heaven Yuan Pill and Nine Yang Pill, there are still about three bottles.”

"I want it all."

Shen Changqing waved his hand.

If it's self-funded, he needs to think about it carefully.

>

After all, even the cheapest of the three kinds of pills costs twenty points of merit each.

>

A single bottle of elixir can cost over a hundred points of merit.

But now that it's not about me making contributions, there's nothing to be modest about.

That's all for now.

Since Xun Qu was going to Luoyang City, risking his life, he took some things to ensure his survival. I believe Ji Tianlu wouldn't mind at all.

Dragon Tiger Pill: After swallowing and refining it, it can nourish the martial artist's flesh and blood, and at the same time, it can strengthen the martial artist's strength in a short period of time. Even for a martial artist in the later stage of the Grandmaster, it can still have a certain increase.

Tian Yuan Dan: A holy medicine for healing wounds, it can bring the dead back to life. As long as it is not a fatal injury, it can recover in a short period of time. Even if it suffers a fatal injury, it can also have a certain delaying effect.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Nine Suns Pill: Strengthens a martial artist's own yang energy, making them fearless of yin evil Qi and able to increase their true qi. It is a supremely masculine and yang pill.

Three kinds of elixir.

All of them were personally chosen by Shen Changqing.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

In terms of effects, they are all the most beneficial for their current situation.

Needless to say about Dragon Tiger Pill.

When nurturing oneself, it can also increase the strength of a martial artist.

Entering Luoyang City, I'm not sure what dangers I might face that I wouldn't be able to handle. Having the Dragon Tiger Pill is a way to ensure my survival.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The Heavenly Yuan Pill is a holy medicine for healing wounds.

> At times, it can save your life.

As for the Nine Yang Pill.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He felt that this pill harmonized with his own Great Sun True Qi. If he took it, it might even have some effect on his Great Sun Golden Pill.

Anything else.

Shen Changqing had no intention of redeeming it.

When leaving the Demon Slayer Hall.

In Shen Changqing's arms, there were already several bottles of pills.

All pills are the same specification, with eight in each bottle.

More than fifty.

He felt.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

As long as nothing major goes wrong, I have a high chance of retreating safely once I enter Luoyang City.

He did not go directly to Luoyang City.

>

Shen Changqing first returned his identity token to Ji Tianlu.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

"Many thanks to General Ji for your generous hospitality. Shen and the others will pack up shortly and depart. However, I am not very familiar with the exact location of Luoyang City. I hope that when we arrive, General Ji will send someone to guide us."

"Sounds good."

Ji Tianlu smiled slightly.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"I don't know what Elder Shen took from the Slayer Hall, but will it be enough for entering Luoyang City"

“It’s about the same. I took some Long Hu Dan, Tian Yuan Dan and Jiu Yang Dan. I believe there shouldn't be any major problems entering Luoyang City.”

Then, Shen Changqing also gave a smile.

Upon hearing this.

Ji Tianlu's heart clenched.

He knew long ago that Shen Changqing wouldn't show mercy.

Even when the other party actually said it, it still felt like a blow to oneself.

Dragon and Tiger Pill!

Heavenly Yuan Pill!

Nine Suns Pill!

Those are all truly top-tier elixirs, each one requiring a significant amount of merit to exchange for.

Look at the other person's face.

It's also impossible to just exchange a few coins.

That's it for this round.

Huge loss!

>

Even a garrison commander wouldn't find it easy to earn such merit. But if Xun Qu could return safely, then all this effort would have been worth it.

Or.

When Xun Qu comes back, just let him pay the bill.

With this thought in mind, Ji Tianlu felt a little better. A faint smile still lingered on his face.

"Elder Shen, just get ready. I'll arrange for someone to lead the way."

“Well, then I'll take my leave.”

Shen Changqing bowed.

Leaving the main hall.

He went straight back to his place.

As for Jiang Zuo and the others, Shen Changqing didn't pay much attention.

Since it's support.

Ji Tianlu would never allow them all to go to their deaths.

>

What kind of strength, dealing with what kind of problems.

The methods of Jiangzuo are not weak.

He believed that as long as the demonic beings were not overly powerful, even if they couldn't defeat the opponent, it would be easy to retreat.

Back to the courtyard.

Shen Changqing did not use the Tiyuan Dan, but instead took out one Long Hu Dan and one Jiuyang Dan each.

Please note that the original content was simply a closing paragraph tag. I've left it unchanged in the English translation.

Two pills of red medicine.

Visually, there isn't much difference.

But if you feel it seriously, you can find some differences.

Immediately.

He first swallowed the Nine Suns Pill.

The medicinal pill enters the abdomen.

Powerful energy erupted from his body, like a furnace burning inside him. Then, the Great Sun Golden Pill in his dantian trembled slightly.

All of the energy released by Jiuyang Dan was absorbed in the past.

Less than two hours.

The energy of the Jiuyang Dan dissipated completely.

Upon further examination of the Great Sun Golden Elixir, the illusory golden elixir exhibited some subtle changes.

It seems to have become a little more solid.

It doesn't seem like there's been much change.

That's all.

As the wielder of the Great Sun Golden Elixir, Shen Changqing could be certain that after ingesting the Nine Yang Dan, the Great Sun Golden Elixir had truly become stronger.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Although the strengthening is not much.

That kind of growth, however, is absolutely real.

After I condensed the great sun golden elixir, it's very likely that the aftereffects of the golden elixir will turn into a physical form. And if I were to use true qi to match it, it seems a bit inappropriate.

“At this level, one is already capable of dealing with lower-level demons.”

The power wielded by the Marshal is called Lingyuan, the power possessed by demons is called Moyuan, then the power I now command could be called Zhenyuan!

Shen Changqing stretched out his hand, a ball of energy as hot as flames condensing in his palm.

Flames roared.

>

Extremely hot.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Compared to the illusory nature of true Qi, the power that now manifests is more tangible and evident.

It was renamed Zhenyuan.

There are no major problems.

Having withdrawn his own power, he had already learned quite a bit about the effects of the Jiuyang Dan.

Then.

Shen Changqing began to swallow the Dragon Tiger Pill.

When the elixir fell into his stomach, faintly, it seemed as if the sound of a dragon's roar and a tiger's growl echoed out.

The next moment.

>

That unique energy of Long Hu Dan continuously seeped into the flesh and blood, causing the bones and muscles to resonate. At the same time, dormant qi and blood were awakened, and a certain potential hidden deep within was triggered.

Boom—

Aura burst.

At that moment.

Shen Changqing felt a powerful force surging within his physical body, reaching a point where it had to be released.

A punch was thrown.

The air crackled.

The sound of the dragon's roar and the tiger's growl, from faint to intense, swept across all directions in a thunderous boom.

They are three zhang apart.

On the wall of the courtyard, a sunken fist print appeared.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The fist print appeared abruptly, as if it had always been there. There wasn't a single crack on the wall around the fist print.

“A Dragon Tiger Pill can increase one’s physical strength by about 10%.”

Having retracted his fist, Shen Changqing had a certain understanding of the effects of Long Hu Dan.

Seeing is believing.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

> Hear and see but trust not.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The introduction to the effects of medicinal herbs, without true firsthand experience, lacks a certain something.

Throw a punch.

The energy of the Dragon Tiger Pill has been depleted by half.

This is the translated text:

Let me know if you need any more translations!

“If the medicinal energy of the pill is not released, the subsequent cultivation can still nourish the physical body's qi and blood. However, if it is directly exploded, it is equivalent to consuming the pill in advance.”

"That's it then."

"The Dragon Tiger Pill nurtures the flesh and blood, as well as amplifying a martial artist's power. The two are conflicting and one must be chosen, it is impossible to have both."

After understanding the specific effects of Long Hu Dan, to be honest, Shen Changqing was somewhat disappointed.

But.

One cannot have both fish and bear's paw.

A Dragon Tiger Pill can increase one's strength by about 10%. Even if it's only the strength of a single punch, it can change the outcome at a critical moment.

If all the Long Hu Dan were to be swallowed.

Then the power that erupts will definitely shock people.

>

The remaining Dragon Tiger Pill can't be used indiscriminately. In a critical moment, it could save your life.

Shen Changqing solemnly put away the pills. At this time, the courtyard door was also knocked on.

Open the door.

There stood Deng Gu.

"Elder Shen, by order of the Commander-in-Chief, I shall be your guide and lead you to Luoyang City!"
