Chapter 540: Chapters 275-276 Investigate Two or Three Hundred Years Back (Combined Chapter, Seeking Monthly Votes)

Defender Envoys first obtain a portion of transcendent power from Demon Evil, then achieve their own breakthrough, thereby ascending to the transcendent level.

As for Martial Artists, they do not need to rely on others’ transcendent power but depend on themselves, tempering their Flesh with each advancement and breakthrough, step by step reaching the transcendent level.

If a Grandmaster Martial Artist’s Flesh doesn’t yet possess many transcendent qualities, then upon advancing to the Grandmaster Realm, a Martial Artist has already entered the transcendent realm.

To put it simply, Shen Changqing had now reached a state where he essentially had no vital points to speak of. Even if his body shattered, as long as he had sufficient energy, he could repair himself immediately. The same was true even if his head exploded. It was just like Shimohe, whose Flesh could burst apart, and yet his Divine Soul could still escape.

In this respect, he found that compared to a Great Grandmaster, the Defender Envoy was considerably weaker.

The status of a Venerable Rank Defender Envoy is something I don’t yet know, but if it’s just a King Rank Defender Envoy, then in terms of life hierarchy, they’re actually not as advanced as a Great Grandmaster. In the same battle, Great Grandmasters have far more methods to preserve their lives than King Rank Defender Envoys. The difference between them is probably the price of taking shortcuts!

Shen Changqing’s eyes were profound. The path of the Defender Envoy is a shortcut. As long as the fusion is successful, one can ascend to heaven in a single step, directly crossing over from the ordinary Grandmaster Realm to another level.

The so-called Grandmaster Peak, and even the Grandmaster Ultimate Summit—though both are within the Grandmaster category, these two realms are already completely distinct and incomparable to ordinary Grandmasters. Ordinary Grandmasters looking to advance to Grandmaster Peak or even Grandmaster Ultimate Summit would need long periods of refinement, or a great opportunity, to break through successfully.

In contrast, Defender Envoys who merge with a Demon’s Power have undoubtedly taken a significant shortcut. Taking shortcuts naturally comes at a cost.

He channeled his power, destroying all the scrolls before him that recorded the Defender Envoys’ cultivation techniques. Shen Changqing then calmed his mind and looked at his panel.

Name: Shen Changqing

Power: Great Qin’s Demon Suppression Division

Identity: South Nether Prefecture Defender Envoy

Realm: Great Grandmaster

Divine Soul: Divine Soul (Seventh Order)

Flesh: Divine Heaven Golden Body (Tenth Order)

Martial Arts: Banishing Evil Silent Obliteration Finger (Divine Skills Double Layer), Shrinking Earth into Inches (Divine Skills Single Layer, Upgradeable)

Slaughter Value: 4,102

Divine Ability Value: 276

The Slaughter Value is just over 4,000. The Slaughter Value from the three Demon Spirit Generals is between 2,400 to 2,500, which is quite good. It’s a pity they’re not truly Demon Evil, so slaying them doesn’t yield spiritual power. Otherwise, I could have seen some growth in my Divine Soul. Even if I couldn’t break through to the eighth order, I could have shortened the distance. And there’s also Wang Mubai; a top Great Demon like him would give even more Slaughter Value and Spiritual Power, alas!

Thinking of the escaped Wang Mubai, Shen Changqing felt somewhat helpless. It’s a pity. Seeing the strength that could have led to a breakthrough slip away, to say it wasn’t regrettable would be self-deception.

Straightaway, he looked back at the panel.

Being able to slay three Demon Spirit Generals and chase Wang Mubai away, the Banishing Evil Silent Obliteration Finger played no small part, but the Shrinking Earth into Inches Divine Skill was equally indispensable. Though ’one power breaks Myriad Laws,’ any flashy technique is not as useful as the most direct power. However, to truly achieve ’one power breaks Myriad Laws’ is no easy feat. Therefore, Shrinking Earth into Inches remains indispensable. If this Divine Skill were to be fused again, it would undoubtedly become even more powerful.

Shen Changqing contemplated in silence.

If the Divine Soul cannot advance, and the Divine Heaven Golden Body cannot merge and break through, then the only thing left to enhance my own strength is the advancement of Divine Skills.

Don’t think that 4,000 Slaughter Value is a lot. In reality, after a Divine Skill’s second fusion, the consumed Slaughter Value is between 2,500 and 2,600. If it’s a third fusion, my estimate is that it would require at least 7,000 to 8,000 Slaughter Value. After all, a Divine Skill from a second fusion costs 2,500 Slaughter Value. But a Divine Skill from a third fusion would consume two such Divine Skills, meaning a baseline consumption of 5,000 Slaughter Value. Moreover, fusing two second-layer Divine Skills also costs additional Slaughter Value. Fusing two single-layer Divine Skills into a second-layer one consumes 1,000 Slaughter Value. Therefore, fusing two second-layer Divine Skills, based on previous consumption rates, would require at least another 2,000 to 3,000. So, an estimate of 7,000 to 8,000 for the total consumption is quite conservative.

Four thousand Slaughter Value may seem like a lot, but fusing the Banishing Evil Silent Obliteration Finger further isn’t really a possibility. The only feasible method is to further fuse the Shrinking Earth into Inches Divine Skill.

The Shrinking Earth into Inches Divine Skill is currently at the first layer. The Divine Skill obtained after its next fusion—whether it will remain at the first layer or be uninitiated—is unknown. But with over 200 Divine Ability Value remaining, even if the resulting Divine Skill is uninitiated, there’s nothing to worry about. Once the Demon Evil issue is resolved, I must deal with those Mountain Spirits with full force.

Seeing the limited Divine Ability Value, Shen Changqing thought of the Mountain Spirits hidden all over the place. He had assigned the task of capturing Mountain Spirits to the Demon-Subduing Division. However, right now, the people from the Demon-Subduing Division were fully engaged in dealing with Demon Evils, and probably there wasn’t much effort directed towards the Mountain Spirits. Furthermore, Mountain Spirits are adept at hiding, making them even more difficult to locate. Once the issue with the Demon Evils is alleviated, they would certainly need to take serious action against the Mountain Spirits.

Those not of our kind will surely have a different heart.
