These young men are all carefully selected by the Clan Affairs Bureau, or they are the relatives and descendants of the monks from the Clan Affairs Bureau. They all have very good qualifications. It’s just that they started practicing a little late, and the speed of cultivation is naturally not comparable to that of Chang Qing.
But Chang Xing felt that the future achievements of these children might not be lower than his own. After all, they were in the best years for monks.
The teenagers had not practiced for a long time. After standing for an hour, they started to sweat profusely, with big beads of sweat flowing on their faces. If it hadn't coincided with the revival of spiritual energy and the integration of small worlds, they would have been carefree.
How can you be willing to endure such pain at your age? However, the world has changed drastically now, and only by becoming stronger can you survive in the difficult world in the future.
"Don't shake! This is really the most critical time. After this moment, you will immediately feel the joy of crossing the limit. Zhuang Gong is the foundation of spiritual practice. Only when the roots are firmly established can the path of spiritual practice be smooth." That's all.
When the young apprentice was about to lose his hold, Chang Xing's voice sounded.
This sound seemed to inspire the hidden power in the bodies of the teenagers. All the teenagers seemed to have lost their fatigue and their bodies became lighter. They easily overcame this difficulty. After two hours, they seemed to
Already lost track of time.
"Time's up. Chang Qing, help them down." Chang Xing knew that these young apprentices had stood stiff for so long. If they didn't step forward to help them, they would definitely fall straight down one by one.
"We're down, let's do some physical activity first, and when the activity starts, we'll go over there and make some medicine!"
Chang Xing spared no effort in spending money on these young apprentices. After practicing Zhuang Kung Fu every day, he would take carefully refined medicinal herbs and make them for these apprentices to help them temper their bodies, allowing them to get twice the result with half the effort.
Of course, it was a good time for them to catch up. Now that the spiritual energy has revived, various medicinal materials have mutated and become elixirs. Chang Xing can bring back a large amount of spirit beast flesh and blood as well as a large amount of elixirs once he goes out.
.If Chang Xing was a child, not to mention elixirs, even ordinary precious medicinal materials would not be so easy to obtain. Naturally, it would be impossible for an experienced person to find elixirs for Chang Xing to take a bath.
"You have worked so hard to train them, but they may not be able to help you after they finish their studies. You must know that they were sent here by Zhou Shaonan, and they will return to the Clan Affairs Bureau sooner or later." Wu Wanyi reminded.
"If this continues, it's hard to say how long the Clan Affairs Bureau can survive. The world has changed, and people's hearts will also change. Nowadays, various shelters are fighting for power and profit, and things will happen sooner or later. People like Zhou Shaonan are no match for those politicians fighting for power.
Things have changed, but some people still like to see the world through old eyes. Hehe." Chang Xing said.
"Are you talking about me?" Wu Wanyi rolled her eyes at Chang Xing.
"How dare I?" Chang Xing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Of course, he knew that his mother-in-law had deliberately misunderstood. There were some words that were really inappropriate to say right now.
"Wanyi, you can have some snacks. It's okay that your cultivation level is not as good as Chang Qing's. If you are not as good as this group of students, how can you have the nerve to go out and meet people?" Chang Xing said.
"Ouch, I've embarrassed you, Master Chang." Wu Wanyi's hands quickly pinched the soft flesh of Chang Xing's waist.
"Oh, my wife is hard to teach!" Chang Xing lamented.
As the concentration of spiritual energy increases day by day, the monks' cultivation speed is also accelerating. In addition, there are some martial arts people whose martial arts are also improving very quickly.
In the Pujiang shelter where Zhou Shaonan lives, there is a group of people who were originally amateur boxers at the Pujiang boxing gym and often participated in some martial arts competitions. The best among them have also participated in national competitions. However, most domestic martial arts competitions are mainly for entertainment and have little gold content.
It was too high, and they even concocted some farces in which foreign boxing champions competed with domestic boxing champions.
Originally, the monks of the Family Affairs Bureau did not take these amateur boxers seriously at all, but after the spiritual energy was revived, there were actually a few of these boxers with special physiques. Suddenly, their physical fitness changed drastically, their strength suddenly increased, or...
The body has become made of steel and iron, making it invulnerable to swords and guns.
Pang Ting, a boxer at the Pujiang Boxing Gym, was originally a competitor in national martial arts competitions. Unexpectedly, after his spiritual energy was revived, his martial arts value soared and his strength increased greatly. He also seemed to be born with steel and iron bones, and his whole body was as hard as iron, with swords and guns
It is difficult to be injured. In addition, the three apprentices Zhang Shenlin, Mo Yushan, and Gu Zhuangwen have also undergone some mutations, and their combat effectiveness has been greatly improved. In order to obtain more meat, the four masters and apprentices formed a team privately and went out of the shelter to hunt.
The sanctuary not only does not prevent such private hunting teams, but also encourages them.
The four masters and disciples of Pang Ting were very lucky. On the first day they went out, they didn't go far when they met a lone low-level spiritual beast. It turned out to be a pig that mutated into a spiritual beast. After transforming into a spiritual beast, the two originally
The weight of a pig weighing over 100 kilograms suddenly increased to 700 to 800 kilograms. I don’t know how it ate in such a short period of time.
Although the pig had turned into a spiritual beast, its combat power did not seem to be as obvious as its weight. The four masters and disciples of Pang Ting swarmed up and directly pushed the spiritual pig to the ground and beat it to death with their fists. All four of them only suffered.
A little skin trauma.
For such a big spiritual pig, after paying 30% to the shelter, the rest is all yours. And the 30% paid is not in vain, the shelter will give certain points.
These points can be exchanged for different benefits. For example, Pang Ting can apply to rebuild the Pujiang Boxing Gym. The shelter will provide an appropriate venue for the Pujiang Boxing Gym.
In exchange for a larger venue, Pang Ting handed over most of the spiritual pork in exchange for a larger venue. Only a few dozen kilograms of meat were left, enough for the people of Pujiang Martial Arts Hall to make a tooth sacrifice.
The reason why Pang Ting was able to exchange a few hundred kilograms of meat for so much treatment actually had a lot to do with the factional fighting between the political and military factions of the shelter. When the shelter was first established, everyone worked hard to survive the difficulties.
They were able to live in harmony, but after the crisis passed, the conflicts between the two groups became apparent.
The Clan Affairs Bureau is considered the neutral faction of the Sanctuary. After all, the monks in the Clan Affairs Bureau are too high-minded and are not willing to compete for power with some ordinary people. However, the battle between the military faction and the political faction began to become fierce. The political faction naturally still hopes to be like before the great change.
The same, they control the power of life and death in the shelter. But now, because all the shelters have almost become isolated islands, there has been no communication of information from top to bottom for a long time. The military sent out every day to clean up the spirit beasts and open up passages, resulting in heavy casualties.
Naturally, the resentment in his heart began to accumulate. Naturally, he was unwilling to let the political faction distribute the spiritual beast meat that he had fought hard for. At first, both sides were still caring about face. As time went by, the face naturally became thinner and thinner, and finally the military revealed it completely.
The faction simply stopped releasing any harvested souls into the hands of political officials. The reason was that they discovered that using soul animal meat could increase a person's physical strength and even cause some potential soldiers to mutate.
Seeing that the power in their hands was about to fall away, the officials of the political faction were naturally unwilling to accept it, so they thought of using their resources to win over some mutants. The Pujiang Boxing Gym was the target of the political faction. Naturally, what the political faction valued was not the Pujiang Boxing Gym.
Gong's spiritual beast meat, but the martial arts value of Pujiang Boxing Gym.
Pang Ting was invited to the Pujiang Shelter Command Center by Kong Wei, the leader of the political faction.
"This is Comrade Kong Wei, director of the Pujiang Shelter Command Center." Huang Yunhui, Kong Wei's secretary, brought Pang Ting into an office.
Pang Ting knew that the big shot in front of him would be his future nobleman, so he quickly nodded and bowed: "Hello, Director Kong. I am Pang Ting, the boxer from Pujiang Boxing Gym."
"Hello, Comrade Pang Ting. I heard that your Pujiang Boxing Gym participated in the sanctuary's cleanup of spiritual beasts regardless of personal safety, and generously handed over the spirit beasts you hunted to the sanctuary. It's a righteous act for you.
, I appreciate it very much, and also express my gratitude to you on behalf of the Pujiang Shelter Command Center. The command center is very supportive of you in rebuilding the Pujiang Boxing Gym. I hope that Master Pang can train a large number of boxers for the Pujiang Shelter who dare to fight against spiritual beasts.
Come out. The command center will try its best to provide you with any help it can." Kong Wei said a lot of official words and also gave a lot of benefits.
Pang Ting was also cooperative and gave a very appropriate interaction while Kong Wei was speaking.
The political faction and Pujiang Boxing Gym each had their own needs, so naturally they quickly reached cooperation.
Naturally, the political faction will not put their eggs in the Pujiang Boxing Gym basket. In fact, Kong Wei is not optimistic that one Pang Ting can fight against the military faction, let alone the Clan Affairs Bureau. Kong Wei just hopes to cast a wide net.
In this way, we can gather forces that can compete with the military faction.
Naturally, it is impossible for the Clan Affairs Bureau to be unaware of the dispute between the political faction and the military faction. On the contrary, every move of the two factions cannot escape their eyes.
"Zhou Bureau, those two groups really don't care about life and death. Now that they have become like this, they are still interested in fighting among themselves." Jin Bangmin complained to Zhou Shaonan very dissatisfied.
"They can fight however they want. We don't care about it now. If they are smarter, we can protect them for a while longer. If they are ignorant, we will abandon them directly. If they run away for their lives, they can still
Can you outrun it?" Zhou Shaonan was not worried at all.
"But there are still so many people in the shelter. Are you willing to watch so many people being killed by these two groups?" Zhang Yifeng said worriedly.
"They don't make too much trouble, and we don't bother to care about them. If they make too much trouble, let's solve the problem once and for all." Zhou Shaonan said.
"Wouldn't it be better to nip the problem in the bud now?" He Junlong asked puzzledly.
"It's good, but it's just not as easy as you said. These people are not spiritual beasts, they are spiritual beasts. No matter how powerful they are, we will risk our lives, but what can we do with these people? Kill them? Or arrest them?
?" Zhou Shaonan said helplessly.
"With this skill, we might as well find more good seedlings from the shelter and send them to Fellow Daoist Chang. There are still too few apprentices at Fellow Daoist Chang. I have to send him hundreds or even thousands of apprentices no matter what.
Anyway, for fellow Taoist Chang, herding a sheep is also herding, and herding a group of sheep is also herding." Zhou Shaonan added.
If Chang Xing heard what Zhou Shaonan said here, he would probably roll up his sleeves and fight directly with Zhou Shaonan. With just a dozen apprentices, Chang Xing had to go out every day to hunt for spirit beasts and find elixirs.
.Spirit beasts are easy to hunt, but elixirs are hard to find. I have to watch these guys practice every day and supervise their practice progress. There is not much leisure at all. If there are thousands of apprentices, Chang Xing will really be in the dark, and he will have to support him from now on.
With thousands of mouths open, it is no easy task.
The tea cup in Chang Qing's hand broke inexplicably.
"What's going on? I've always been a little distracted lately. Fortunately, I was holding a tea cup in my hand. Chang Xing glanced at his mother-in-law. If I pinched it on someone, I'm afraid it would be broken.
"How old are you? I drank a cup of tea and broke the tea cup. If you continue to waste your family like this, no matter how big our family's fortune is, it won't be enough for you to lose. You see, you accept so many apprentices. Not only do you not accept
Tuition fees, food and clothing are also taken care of. All the fabrics at home have been used up. In the current situation, there will be no place to turn to fabrics in the future. In the future, I am afraid that we will have to weave fabrics by hand. I am afraid that if I want to wear clothes made of industrial textile fabrics in the future, they will not be available.
It's possible." Wu Wanyi said dissatisfied.
"You are really amazing. You can spread such a wide spread with a tea cup. Isn't it just a tea cup? I will find some jade and buy you a few sets of jade tea cups to compensate you." Chang Xing said.
Jinling Palace Shelter. Fu Mangrao looked very ugly. Peng Sheng, the traitor who had betrayed the Bureau of Clan Affairs, showed up in the shelter. Not only was he not caught by the Bureau of Clan Affairs, but he seriously injured two monks of the Clan Affairs Bureau.
"This traitor's strength has greatly increased. Even if we join forces, we are no match for him."
"He must have betrayed us last time and got a reward from the Evil Cultivation Alliance. He was originally on the same level as us."
Fu Mangrao's expression changed. Peng Sheng dared to appear in the shelter again because the Evil Alliance was preparing to cause trouble in the shelter. And he was sure of taking down the shelter in one fell swoop.
"The Evil Alliance has another conspiracy!" Fu Mangrao was very worried. The last time the Clan Affairs Bureau had the upper hand, Tan Zhaoqi escaped. Although the Evil Alliance suffered heavy losses, the power of that attack was definitely not that of the Evil Alliance.
All about the alliance.
In the current situation, the power of the Family Affairs Bureau has been divided into several parts and scattered in various shelters, which gives the evil cultivators the opportunity to defeat each one.
"It's a pity that we haven't been able to completely open up several shelters. At this time, if the evil cultivator alliance defeats them one by one, maybe the entire Jinling may fall into the hands of the evil cultivator alliance." Fu Mangrao was worried.
However, even so, Fu Mangrao still has to send out most of the forces of the Clan Affairs Bureau to clean up the spirit beasts, and strive to open up all the shelters in Jinling City as soon as possible. As long as the shelters are open to each other, even if they have received the invitation from the Evil Alliance
To attack, Fu Mangrao could suppress the forces of the Evil Alliance as long as he gathered the clan affairs bureau together. Fu Mangrao could only hope that the Evil Alliance would not take action so soon.
"Fu Bureau. What if we go out to clean up the spirit beasts and the Evil Alliance takes the opportunity to cause chaos?" Fu Mangrao's assistant Deng Yanfu'ai said worriedly.
"If we don't open up the passages to each shelter, sooner or later the several shelters in Jinling will be defeated by the Evil Alliance. Instead of worrying about this now, it is better to open all the passages quickly. In this way, even if the Evil Alliance takes the opportunity to take over the shelter,
We can still get it back. What's more, the palace sanctuary has a formation arranged by fellow Taoist Chang, and the formation is in our hands. It's not that easy for them to take over the palace sanctuary," Fu Mangrao said.
After Fu Mangrao led the people out of the shelter, Peng Sheng appeared in the shelter again. This time, Tan Zhaoqi also came.
Tan Zhaoqi and Peng Sheng did not flee far, but lurked in Jinling. When a large number of people poured into the palace shelter, they also mixed in with the crowd and took the opportunity to enter the palace shelter.
"The formation of the Palace Sanctuary is indeed a bit weird. It is different from ordinary formations." Liu Weibo, the evil cultivator's formation mage, felt the energy in the shelter's formation and frowned. Liu Weibo is also a proficient
The formation master of the formation. It's just that the formation used by Chang Xing is not an ordinary one. Liu Weibo can't understand the secrets of Chang Xing's formation. He can't even find the base of the formation, so how can he talk about breaking the formation.
"Didn't you say that you are proficient in formations? Why can't you even find the formation base? How can we break this formation now?" Tan Zhaoqi asked.
Liu Weibo shook his head: "I don't have any good solution. Unless I have enough manpower to directly destroy the formation violently."
"All the people in our helm were recruited in one go. The new recruits recently recruited haven't been trained yet and are worse than ordinary soldiers. When the shelter reacts, we won't even have anywhere to run," Tan Zhaoqi said angrily.
"Otherwise, wait for another opportunity. Contact the headquarters, and the headquarters will send someone to take down the shelter in Jinling City in one fell swoop." Liu Weibo said.
"By the time, Fu Mangrao has already opened the passage to Jinling, and maybe the entire Jinling City will be repaired. By then, what will we have to do?" Tan Zhaoqi stomped his feet angrily.
Fu Mangrao finally led a group of people to open a passage to a shelter and met with the monks from the Meihua Valley Sanctuary Bureau.
"Fu Bureau, you are here. Our shelter was almost captured by spirit beasts. Brothers suffered heavy losses." Deng Yanfu, who was guarding the Plum Blossom Valley Sanctuary, almost cried.
"Which shelter is not under tremendous pressure? How come you have suffered such heavy losses?" Fu Mangrao was very annoyed.
"It's not because of blind command! One general is incompetent and the three armies are exhausted." Deng Yanfu had great opinions on the commander of Plum Blossom Valley. He was hesitant that the army could not withstand the attack of lower spiritual beasts well. The monks of the Clan Affairs Bureau had to evacuate.
They came to help them defend and consumed a lot of spiritual energy. By the time the most popular high-level spiritual beast appeared, the monks of the Clan Affairs Bureau were already exhausted. Deng Yanfu and others fought desperately and finally saved the Plum Blossom Valley, but suffered heavy losses. Everyone led them
were injured, more than half of the troops were reduced, and three monks were sacrificed.
