Chapter 108 The outbreak of war
After getting away from the Longyuan Mountain Range, Lin Shen was relieved when he found that the Profound Realm Tiger Demon had not caught up.
But he didn't relax, and kept running.
It wasn't until he returned to Linlong City that he showed an expression of relief.
After relaxing, Lin Shen suddenly found that the clothes on his back were soaked in cold sweat.
"It's so dangerous, if it weren't for the Dao-level Melting Soldier, I probably would have confessed there this time!"
Thinking of the power and terror of that tiger demon, Lin Shen still felt lingering fear in his heart.
But immediately, another burst of ecstasy surged in his heart.
Even such a powerful tiger demon was still blasted into the ground by the melting hand of the Taoist realm, which shows the strength of the Taoist martial arts!
"If this is an opponent at the growth level, few people will be able to withstand one blow!"
"Martial skills at the Taoist realm are already so powerful, after breaking through to a higher realm, how powerful should they be?"
Lin Shen was immediately full of expectations for the realm after entering the Taoist realm.
After this battle, he killed more than forty white-eyed demon tigers, many of whom were in the late stage of Ascension Realm, so that the talent effect of killing and proving the Tao was triggered twice, increasing the progress of the cultivation base and the idol art respectively. 8% and 12%.
So far, Lin Shen's realm has reached '97% of the sixth level of long-breathing', and he is only one step away from breaking through to the seventh level of long-breathing.
Back to Jiuyang Taoist Temple, Lin Shen was keenly aware that the surrounding atmosphere was obviously different from before as soon as he stepped on the entrance mountain road.
The disciples who came and went all walked in a hurry, with a sense of urgency, and there was also a trace of anxiety and excitement in their expressions.
There is a breath of impending war in the air!
Lin Shen's eyes flickered slightly, and he quickened his pace and walked towards the Academy of Merit.
When he came to the mission hall, Lin Shen was surprised to find that the hall, which used to be crowded with people, was now deserted and deserted, with hardly any people in sight.
Jiao Yu was on duty behind the counter, and when she saw Lin Shen coming, she smiled pleasantly.
"Brother Lin, as long as you are fine!"
Lin Shen became more and more sure of his guess, but he still asked:
"The monastery seems to be a little different from usual, is it because of the Longyuan Mountains?"
Jiao Yu's pretty face was serious, she nodded heavily and said:
"That's right, just a few hours ago, the Tigers, Bears, and Pythons jointly dispatched a large number of monsters to attack all cultivators in the Longyuan Mountain Range. Many disciples in our Taoist monastery failed to escape. Casualties were heavy!"
Sure enough!
Lin Shen's heart trembled slightly.
Fortunately, he didn't go too deep into the Longyuan Mountains, and left as soon as he noticed something was wrong, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
"What did the Sanzong Mansion say?" Lin Shen asked again
For such a big matter, the Sanzong Mansion will certainly not fail to respond.
"The Sanzong Mansion has issued a wartime guard order, and issued a notice that it will attack the Longyuan Mountains in ten days to kill the three major monster tribes, and the master has also issued an order to summon disciples. Disciples above and above must gather to join the battle after ten days!"
Sure enough, Yang Zhongyi was right!
A war broke out between Linlong City and the three major demon tribes!
Lin Shen secretly sighed.
Even so, he did not resist joining the war, but was faintly eager to try.
After all, although war is extremely dangerous, the benefits are also very considerable.
The feats that can be obtained are still second, and more importantly, they can kill a large number of monsters, triggering the talent effect of killing and proving the way to quickly increase their strength.
After a big battle, maybe his cultivation can break through to another level, or he can practice another martial skill at the Dao realm.
"There are still ten days, enough time for me to raise my cultivation base to the seventh level of long-breathing, and cultivate the Forbidden Golden Armor to the Taoist realm!"
The power of Dao realm martial arts has been thoroughly verified not long ago.
With two entry-level martial arts in hand, Lin Shen felt that even in an extremely dangerous battlefield, he still had enough power to protect himself!
With a calculation in mind, Lin Shen stopped delaying and started to hand in the task.
During this period of time, he has gained a lot in the Longyuan Mountains, and he has also completed five or six crusade missions. After the final count, he has obtained 23 minor merits and 438 merit points!
"It's a pity that the white-eyed demon tigers I killed just now didn't have time to get the spine, otherwise it would be more than forty minor achievements!"
Lin Shen felt slightly regretful.
White-eyed demon tigers are not so common.
After two months of experience in the Longyuan Mountains, the total number of white-eyed demon tigers he encountered was only four.
And they are all alone, there has never been an example of two white-eyed demon tigers appearing together.
Like the situation where the Tiger Department sent a large number of white-eyed demon tigers to attack human practitioners, it may not happen once in four or five years.
Thanks to Jiao Yu, Lin Shen immediately left the mission hall and came to the exchange hall.
With the merits earned this time, plus the remaining ones, and the five minor merit benefits of prefecture-level disciples this month, Lin Shen now has a total of 30 minor merits and more than 500 merit points.
Lin Shen planned to exchange all these meritorious deeds into martial arts.
In addition to Melting Soldiers and Forbidden Golden Armor, in terms of body skills and sword skills, he is also preparing to practice an entry-level martial art.
First of all, body skills.
Strictly speaking, Lin Shen is currently practicing like a shadow. In terms of rank, it can only be said to be slightly higher than Blazing Sun Palm, and far inferior to powerful martial arts such as Soldiers Melting Hand and Forbidden Golden Armor.
So Lin Shen didn't plan to use Shadow Follower as the main body of martial arts fusion, but planned to choose another more powerful martial skill.
After some browsing, he quickly selected the target.
Yunlong law, ten small skills
From the merits required for the exchange, it can be seen that this is a body skill that is slightly better than Melting Soldier, which only requires eight minor skills.
According to the description attached to the martial arts, once the Yunlong law is used, it will be like a dragon swimming in the sky, as fast as a dragon, and when it is cultivated to a high level, it can be pulled up more than ten feet on the ground, or it can fly through the sky without borrowing external objects. Baizhang, comparable to flying spells!
Just judging from the description, this martial skill is much stronger than Shadow Follow!
So Lin Shen exchanged this martial skill without hesitation.
According to the law, an entry-level martial art requires the fusion of five martial arts.
Therefore, in addition to Yunlonglu and Ruying in the Shadow, Lin Shen chose three more body skills and lightness skills.
Star moves, two small skills
Golden Goose Kung Fu, Three Minor Kung Fu
Treading the snow without trace, four small skills
After some exchange, Lin Shen only had eleven small kung fus left.
After thinking about it, Lin Shen simply exchanged the three palm techniques and claw skills, preparing to use them to improve the state of Melting Hand.
So far, all the small skills in his hands have been spent.
After that, Lin Shen spent another 500 merit points in exchange for ten Hunyuan Pills, and then left the Merit Academy.
As soon as he walked out of the Academy of Merit, a paper crane flew towards him and stopped slowly in front of him.
Lin Shen frowned, and stretched out his hand to catch the paper crane. The talisman spread out quickly, and Yang Zhongyi's voice came out from it, telling him to go to the Night Dream Club for a gathering.
It happened that Lin Shen also wanted to inquire about the war, so he happily went there.
About half an hour later.
Lin Shen appeared at the door of Yemeng Hall.
To his surprise, the number of guards at the entrance of the guild hall was obviously much more than the previous few visits.
A large number of strong-backed guards patrolled back and forth, with vicious eyes sweeping over every passer-by, not letting go of any suspiciousness.
Fortunately, Lin Shen was barely a regular customer, and the waiter at the door recognized him immediately, saving a lot of questioning.
Led by the waiter, Lin Shen came to the third floor.
It was still the same box, Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian were already waiting for him inside.
"I'm not too sure about this. It seems that the guild hall was invaded a few days ago, and many guards were injured, so the security should be strengthened."
Yang Zhongyi shrugged and changed the topic.
"Let's not talk about this, Lao Lin, have you heard that Linlong City is going to fight the three major demon tribes?"
Lin Shen nodded slightly: "I just came back from Longyuan Mountain Range today."
As soon as these words came out, Yang Zhongyi and Su Nianqi were both taken aback.
"Have you encountered the monster army of the three major monster tribes?"
"That's right, the white-eyed demon tiger from the Tiger Department, and a tiger demon from the Profound Realm, almost won't come back." Lin Shen sighed.
Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian almost jumped up from their seats when they heard the words.
"I'm going, have you met a tiger demon in the Tongxuan Realm? Can you get away with this?"
Yang Zhongyi looked Lin Shen up and down a few times, and seeing that he didn't look like he was injured, he immediately showed an extremely weird expression.
He didn't suspect that Lin Shen was bragging. With the latter's current reputation, there was really no need to do such a thing.
Besides, Lin Shen is not a vanity character who likes to show off.
Just like this, the shock in Yang Zhongyi's heart became more and more intense.
That is a Tong Xuan Realm monster!
Long-breathing realm disciples encounter such monstrous beasts, basically they will die without life!
And Lin Shen not only managed to escape, but also looked unharmed, how could it not be shocking?
Su Nian also stared at Lin Shen with weird eyes, as if he was looking at some kind of incredible creature.
"It's just luck." Lin Shen waved his hand and changed the subject, "Old Yang, have you heard any news related to the war?"
Yang Zhongyi came back to his senses, nodded his head and said: "I have inquired about it, this time we are fighting with the three major demon tribes, each of the three major sects is responsible for dealing with one demon tribe, and the target of the Nine Yang Sect's suppression is the Tiger tribe!"
"When the battle begins, the main force of the sect will go straight to Huanglong and go deep into the Longyuan Mountains to attack the tiger's lair. What our Taoist temple needs to do is to clean up the monsters in the outer periphery and clear the way for the main army of the sect. , Open up the passage directly into the tiger's lair!"
This arrangement made Lin Shen and Su Nian slightly relieved.
It's a good thing not to have to face the main force of the Tiger Department!
In fact, thinking about it is also true. Unless Jiuyangzong loses his mind, it is impossible for the Taoist disciples to attack the tiger's lair together.
Of course, even cleaning up the minions is not a low-difficulty task.
After all, the so-called miscellaneous soldiers are only compared to the strong monks of Jiuyangzong and Hubu. They are actually monsters of the Ascension Realm or the Monster Beasts of the Tongxuan Realm.
It is still a difficult enemy for Taoist disciples!
"In addition, the arrangement of the Taoist monastery has also come down."
Yang Zhongyi continued:
"At that time, the Taoist disciples will be divided into three teams. Each team will be led by two masters and three disciples from the upper court, and will start to clean up the monsters on each mountain from different directions!"
"Aren't there top ten disciples in the upper court? What about the remaining one?" Su Nian asked suspiciously.
"You mean Senior Brother Shen Zening? He will not be with us. I heard that he will enter the depths of the mountains with the main force of the sect." Yang Zhongyi said
Lin Shen's expression changed.
He has also heard of the name Shen Zening.
The head of the top ten disciples of the upper house of Jiuyang Daoyuan, who came from a prominent family.
Being able to firmly occupy the top ten disciples of the upper court as a child of a non-top family, his talent and strength are self-evident!
Zongmen Headquarters indicated that he would participate in the main battle, apparently with the intention of promoting him.
"Anyway, this is a good opportunity to earn meritorious service. There are still ten days left. We must be fully prepared!"
Having said this, Yang Zhongyi looked at Lin Shen with a smile.
"Speaking of it, it's thanks to Lao Lin. This time I was promoted to the Long Breath Realm, and I made a big splash in the family. I also got a middle-grade magic weapon. I will win more in this war!"
Su Nian's eyes flashed with envy.
Although he is a core child cultivated by the family, his family background is far inferior to that of the Yang family, so he only has a Sanyang talisman sword in his hand.
Lin Shen smiled when he heard the words.
His Liuyang Talisman Sword and Shuyang Robe have already been revealed in the disciple level challenge, and both of them knew it well, so naturally there is no need to say more.
"Come!"
Yang Zhongyi picked up his wine glass and said in a high-spirited voice:
"I wish us a successful start on the battlefield and a bumper harvest! Cheers!"
Lin Shen and Su Nian looked at each other and smiled, then raised their wine glasses.
"cheers!"
The wine glasses of the three collided together, making a crisp sound.
With the help of Hunyuan Pill, Lin Shen broke through to the seventh floor of Long Breath that night.
After another two days, the Divine Elephant Kungfu successfully broke through to the perfection state.
After merging the divine image skill, Jin Jia broke through to the Taoist realm without accident.
【Name: Lin Shen】
【Talent: Mastery】
【Boundary: 20% of the seventh layer of long breath】
【Cultivation methods: Golden Crow Sutra (78% success), Soldiers Melting Hand (0% entry), Forbidden Golden Armor (0% entry).】
【The number of clones is 6 (28%)】
Sitting cross-legged in the center of the practice room, Lin Shen's mind moved slightly, and a dazzling dark golden glow flashed on his body in an instant.
Surprisingly, the dark gold glow this time is completely different from the past. It is no longer a thin layer, but presents a looming illusory armor shape!
It looks as if Lin Shen is wearing a translucent dark gold armor, with an indestructible texture all over his body, which is truly majestic!
"This is the Golden Armor that is banned from entering the Dao Realm."
Lin Shen's eyes shone slightly.
Trying to strike with both fists, it actually made a crisp and muffled sound like gold and iron clashing.
"good!"
Lin Shen nodded in satisfaction, his eyes flashed with surprise.
Although there is no actual combat test, he can already feel the powerful defense of the Forbidden Golden Armor in the Dao Realm.
"The next step is to integrate body skills and lightness skills, and continue to improve the Melting Hand!"
Lin Shen looked at the cheat book in hand.
"There are still eight days until the conquest of the Longyuan Mountains. It is probably too late to practice martial arts. First learn all the martial arts, and then use them to kill and prove Dao on the battlefield!"
Lin Shen soon got a calculation in his mind, summoned all six clones, and began to study the cheats.
It is worth mentioning that after the completion of the Divine Elephant Kung Fu, the number of martial arts at the Perfection Realm that Lin Shen has mastered has increased to fourteen.
The talent effect of bypassing analogy has also soared to 'martial skill training speed +140%' and 'martial skill power +70%'!
In terms of talent, the effect has already surpassed the superior martial arts, and it is not much worse than the pure Yang body.
What's more, in terms of martial arts cultivation alone, analogy is undoubtedly more useful than pure yang body.
After all, among the martial arts selected by Lin Shen, very few belong to the Yang attribute martial arts, and the pure Yang body can't play a role at all.
So when practicing martial arts these days, Lin Shen is basically switching talent by analogy.
With the main body and the six clones going all out, the speed of martial arts comprehension is advancing by leaps and bounds, almost at the rate of one practice per day.
It is also more difficult to practice Yunlong Law, and it took two days to comprehend the introduction.
Wait until the day before the conquest of the Longyuan Mountains, without exception, the four sects of lightness kung fu and the three sects of palm and claw kung fu have been introduced.
In addition, Lin Shen also took the time to use his true energy to nourish the damaged Shuyang Robe, and finally restored this magic weapon to its original state before the start of the war.
So far, Lin Shen has made all the preparations, just waiting for the day of assembly.
