After leaving the canyon where he was ambushed, Xu Chong led his tiger servants and soldiers into the dense mountain forest again.
Walking on the dark forest path, he was secretly thinking about the battle just now.
Being able to defeat the Liangshan League today actually had a lot to do with luck.
Although the ambush plans he deployed went very smoothly, it was more of a fluke.
In fact, in terms of true strength, even if he can conjure 1,500 pig killers, he is no match for the Seven Evils of Liangshan in a head-to-head confrontation.
Under normal peak conditions, it is estimated that one Zhou Iron Fist can consume all his mung beans.
After all, he had just seen the terrifying fighting power of martial artists with his own eyes.
The reason why today's ambush battle was successful and a complete victory was entirely because the enemy was too arrogant and not cautious enough.
I guess those bandits from the Liangshan League would never have thought that he would take the initiative to ambush them? And he would kill them all in one fell swoop!
The biggest reason why their entire army was wiped out was because they underestimated the enemy's carelessness.
So Xu Chong knew very well that he could not be so lucky every time.
"Fortunately, we killed all these thieves today, otherwise, there will be endless troubles!"
"I must find a way to improve my strength as soon as possible. Although it is powerful to spread the beans into soldiers, I must have the most basic ability to protect myself."
"Otherwise, if I encounter a powerful enemy in the future, I won't even be able to escape!"
"As an immortal, I don't have any spiritual energy in my body. I guess I won't be able to use many immortal weapons and magic weapons in the future."
"I will practice immortality and martial arts in the future. It is best to practice the golden bell to protect the body. That way, I don't have to worry about being plotted and attacked..."
Thinking of this, Xu Chong's expression became serious.
Currently, the biggest problem he faces is that his own strength is too weak.
He actually wants to improve his cultivation strength, but there is no point in just rushing. You have to find a way to do it.
Regardless of whether you are cultivating immortality, refining Qi, or practicing martial arts, you must have a special secret book of Kung Fu.
Unfortunately, he has none of these.
After staying in Ziyun Temple for more than four years, I didn't learn anything useful except practicing Zi Qi Jue.
As for the Purple Qi Jue, I feel like it has no effect at all except strengthening the body.
Join another sect and learn skills from a new master?
forget it!
In this world of immortal martial arts, almost all sects, whether cultivating immortals or practicing martial arts, have strict rules and are very traditional. In other words, they are very pedantic.
Moreover, they have extremely strict requirements on the talents of their disciples, so naturally the younger the better.
It would be difficult for an ordinary person like him with no talent to enter without an introduction from an acquaintance and having little connection with the sect bosses.
In addition, he had experience as a master before, so his foundation was not clean.
Normally a truly famous sect would not accept such a person.
Besides, even if he is lucky enough to be accepted into a certain sect, without any background support, he must first start as a handyman disciple.
You must first be a handyman disciple for a few years. If you perform well, you may become an outer disciple, and then you will have the opportunity to practice the low-level skills given by the sect.
After being an outer disciple for a few years, if you perform well and everything goes well, you will be eligible to be accepted as an inner disciple...
After this whole set, it is estimated that within ten or eight years, I will not be able to come into contact with the core skills of the sect at all.
Therefore, joining the sect to practice this path is simply not feasible, and it is impossible for Xu Chong to do so now.
His most important thing is to keep gaining merit and improve his skills as high as possible.
Of course, improving personal cultivation and strength is equally important.
If you want to quickly access and practice the best skills and secrets, you can only join the Six Gates and the Demon Suppression Division.
However, Xu Chong learned from his predecessor's memories that the recruitment requirements for the Six Gates and the Demon Suppression Division were very strict. Even if you were an immortal or a warrior, you would not be qualified to enter if you did not have really strong skills.
Normally, these two departments would only select the best after the Xianwu Conference.
The Xianwu Conference was a grand event held once a year in the Tang Dynasty. Its grandeur even exceeded the literati imperial examination held every three years.
This is a fair stage for those who cultivate immortality and martial arts in the world to show their abilities. It is also a palace where many people who were originally unknown can enter the palace of glory and wealth and reach the sky step by step.
The royal family also used the Immortal Martial Arts Conference to continuously provide fresh blood to the Tang Dynasty and cultivate batches of outstanding immortal martial arts talents for the empire.
This is the fundamental reason why the Tang Dynasty has stood firm for thousands of years.
All immortal master warriors who pass the assessment of the Immortal Martial Arts Conference will finally have the opportunity to enter the advanced holy land [Babel Tower] they dream of.
The Tongtian Tower was built by the founder of the Tang Dynasty. It has eighteen floors. Within each floor, there are countless top-notch immortal weapons, magic weapons, and secret techniques. These are accumulated by the Tang Dynasty over thousands of years.
If there is any sect in this world of Immortal Martial Arts that has the strongest strength, the most abundant resources, and the deepest foundation, then it must be the Royal Family of the Tang Dynasty.
Every year at the Immortal Martial Arts Conference, all sects and sects in the Tang Dynasty, even the most mysterious hidden sects, would send their most outstanding disciples to participate, in order to have a chance to enter the Babel Tower.
The only condition for entering the Babel Tower is that you must join the Six Gates, the Demon Suppression Department, or the Shenwu Hall of the Tang Dynasty military, and become an official who eats the food of the Tang Dynasty.
To be honest, Xu Chong really wanted to join the Six Gates and the Demon Suppression Department. This was a good job that could help him do good deeds, and it was especially suitable for him.
In addition, you can also get permission to enter the Babel Tower to practice.
When he came down the mountain, the first thing he thought of was going to Liangzhou City.
Because in Liangzhou City, there are six gates and a branch of the Demon Suppression Division.
As long as he joins the Six Gates or the Demon Suppression Division, his problem of food, clothing, housing and transportation will be solved. At the same time, he can also legitimately subjugate demons, punish evil and eradicate evil.
More importantly, having the official status of Datang will save you a lot of trouble in the future.
But now it seems like it’s okay to think about it.
You can't enter the Demon Suppression Department and the six gates just because you want. You must first pass the assessment of the Immortal Martial Arts Conference.
The Xianwu Conference is held in October every year, which is still more than half a year away.
So in the past six months, I could only find ways to search for some secrets of cultivation techniques.
As far as he knew, Liangzhou City was the most powerful city in the northwest of the Tang Dynasty. It had a population of millions and was extremely lively and prosperous. There were three religions and nine sects in it, including immortal masters and warriors from various sects.
Moreover, in Liangzhou City, every night on the 15th day of the Lunar New Year, the Xianwu Night Market is held in the Dalong Lake area.
Now, I have more than 6,000 taels of silver on me. Let's see if I can buy some secret books on exercises that can be practiced at the Xianwu Night Market.
In a place like that, there is no need to think about the best secrets of cultivation techniques. It should still be possible to find some low-level cultivation techniques.
Anyway, he is just an ordinary person now. He will first practice some ordinary exercises to practice self-defense. Later, if he wants to practice the superior and top-level exercises, he must enter the Tower of Babel.
Thinking of this, Xu Chong already had a clear plan for the future in his heart, and he was no longer as confused as before.
"The most important thing at the moment is to get to Liangzhou City as soon as possible and settle down."
The tiger servant held a steel knife and walked in the front, constantly chopping thorns, trees and vines to clear the way for the fairy master.
Ten soldiers in green clothes followed Xu Chong, guarding the Great Immortal Spreading Beans as he moved forward.
The path in the mountain forest is probably because few people usually walk on it. The road is blocked by lush weeds and branches, leaves and thorns.
To be honest, this kind of road is not very convenient for walking, but in order to gain some merit along the way, Xu Chong had no choice.
Who makes those bandits like to hide in the wilderness and block roads and rob?
Before they knew it, everyone had been walking for more than an hour.
At this time, the terrain ahead gradually became flat and open, and the surrounding trees were also much sparser.
suddenly.
The tiger servant who was leading the way stopped and stood in the middle of a three-way intersection, his nose twitching as if he noticed something.
Seeing this scene, Xu Chong asked hurriedly: "What did you find?"
The tiger servant sniffed for a while, pointed to a small path on the left and said: "There seems to be a deserted village over there. It is getting dark now. Does the Immortal Master plan to continue on the road, or find a place to rest for the night?"
"Desolate village?"
Xu Chong thought for a while and said, "Take me there to have a look. If possible, we can spend the night there tonight."
"Yes, Immortal Lord..."
The tiger servant nodded respectfully, and then led Xu Chong towards the path on the left.
