From a beggar on South Street to the supreme devil

Chapter 55 Siege
Jiang Chen slowly retracted his fist.

After thinking for a while, he put on some clean clothes, then opened the bedroom door and came to a barren mountain near Shun'anfang.

He picked up the iron demon-subduing stick, ready to test whether there had been any changes in the power of the two great techniques he had mastered after breaking through to the minor success of [Willow Tendons].

The iron demon-subduing stick pointed straight ahead, and the bright energy in the arm instantly burst out.

Ming Jin Da Shu·Tiger Bite!

The evil ghost's stick head was wrapped in surging energy, and suddenly turned into an afterimage, pointing heavily forward.

In the void, a ferocious tiger head rolled up by a stream of energy rushed out along with the head of the stick, and landed heavily on a ten-foot-high rock from a distance of three feet.

bang——

A loud explosion echoed in the barren mountains for a long time, and a huge rock ten feet high was shattered.

The center was completely turned into powder and scattered, and spider-web-like cracks quickly spread to the entire boulder, causing it to completely shatter.

You have to know that this was the case when the iron demon-subduing stick had not completely touched the rock and there was still three feet of air between them.

Jiang Chen pulled back his long stick and glanced at the shattered boulder in front of him.

Sure enough, after entering the Liujin level, the tendon strength that can be unleashed can be superimposed with Ming Jin.

Judging from the power of this attack, the power of "Tiger Bite" has increased by at least 50%.

Let’s test the “Tiger Leap” again.

Jiang Chen's heart moved.

The whole body's energy poured into the legs, condensing and then exploding instantly.

Jiang Chen took a step forward, and his figure immediately left a shadow on the ground, and moved to the other side in the blink of an eye.

After a while.

Jiang Chen tested the changes of "Tiger Leap".

Under normal circumstances, the moving distance of a single "Tiger Leap" is increased from ten feet to two feet.

The ultimate moving distance of "Tiger Leap" has reached five meters, which is a significant increase.

After testing these two "great skills", Jiang Chen was quite satisfied and roughly estimated his own strength.

Although he has just entered the minor success stage of [Liu Jin], the strength and familiarity of his tendons are not as good as those warriors who have been immersed in the Liu Jin level for many years.

But among people of Liu Jin's level, only a few can master the great technique.

Although warriors practice Ming Jin martial arts, they can develop Ming Jin after they reach the perfect level.

However, the number of people who can achieve "minor success" and, when breaking through "minor success", comprehend the "great technique" is less than one in ten.

The Ming Jin level is divided into three realms: "minor success", "great success" and "perfection".

Every time you break through a realm, there is a chance of comprehending a new "great technique", but the greater possibility is that you will comprehend nothing.

This is related to the warrior's personal understanding.

Only warriors with extremely strong talents and comprehension can comprehend a great technique when breaking through these three levels.

As for ordinary warriors, even if they have cultivated to perfection in Ming Jin, they may only comprehend one great technique, or even not comprehend any at all.

Most of the Liujin warriors basically only have Ming Jin in their bodies, and only a few can master the great art of Ming Jin.

That is why Jiang Chen, relying on his highly-developed [Fu Hu Ming Jin], as well as the two great techniques of "Tiger Bite" and "Tiger Leap", can also gain a foothold at the Liu Jin level instead of falling to the bottom.

Even if I encounter a three-striped demon, I have a certain degree of confidence in dealing with it...

After Jiang Chen had a certain estimate of his own strength, he looked up at the sky.

It was already noon, so he returned to Shun'anfang and had lunch at Chunfeng Tower on the way.

Now, more than a month has passed, and the Chunfeng Tower, which was once eaten to pieces by the spider demon, has now been rebuilt.

The prostitutes, pimps, and cooks were transferred from other places, and the prosperous scene of the past was restored.

In order to thank Jiang Chen for killing the spider demon and recovering Chunfeng Tower's losses, the boss behind the scenes of Chunfeng Tower told Jiang Chen that all meals at Chunfeng Tower would be free of charge in the future.

When Jiang Chen learned that there was such a good thing, he did not hesitate to be polite with Chunfeng Tower.

They have a large family and a lot of wealth, so they don't need this little bit of food from me. Besides, I did save the property and manpower of Chunfeng Tower, so I feel at ease eating this meal.

……

After lunch, Jiang Chen returned to the courtyard to continue his practice, consolidating his own level and continuing to improve his strength.

Now that he has reached the rank of Liu Jin, he can report directly and be promoted to a yamen official.

However, he had just entered the Liujin stage, and the situation in the city was chaotic, with demons outside the city eyeing him covetously, so there was no rush for promotion.

It won't be too late to report for promotion once I'm stronger. ...

Time passes slowly.

Night attacks by demons seem to have become the norm, and the warriors in the city have become adept at dealing with the demons that attack at night, and there are almost no casualties among the civilians.

The people also got used to the fighting that broke out at night, and life gradually became dull.

Five days later.

The sky was dark, and the night completely enveloped the city of Yanyang.

Yanyang City, on the outer city wall that stretches for thousands of miles.

Two captains of the Outer City Guard, Wu Qun and Fang Ren, were patrolling on the outer wall while chatting idly.

From time to time, the corner of his eyes would glance at the thick night outside the dock.

"Hey, tell me, when will this kind of time end..."

Wu Qun couldn't help but sigh.

"My concubine is going to give birth in the next two days, and I want to see my little son for the first time..."

If it were a few months ago, when the demons had not yet attacked, the two of them would have only needed to check in on the outer city wall and then go back to the city to rest.

Although they are all Iron-Bone-level warriors, they are all over fifty years old, their blood is declining, their cultivation level is regressing, and they have long lost the desire to make progress in martial arts.

All he is thinking about now is to have more children, marry more concubines, and enjoy the rest of his life.

But now, they have to take risks and come to the outer city wall to garrison and kill the demons that try to sneak into Yanyang City.

If their superiors hadn't been keeping a close eye on them, they would have left long ago.

Fang Ren shook his head: "You'll get used to it. There's nothing we can do about it. After all, if a large number of demons really enter the city, our relatives will also be in danger."

"Killing a few more demons can help supplement our family income."

Wu Qun nodded helplessly: "That's true."

Fang Ren continued, "Besides, I don't think this 'Green Demon' will last much longer."

Wu Qun was slightly stunned and asked curiously: "What do you mean?"

Fang Ren chuckled and explained, "I have carefully counted the number of man-eating demons that enter the city every night. The number has been decreasing since the peak of 120 half a month ago, and only 50 yesterday."

"What does this mean? Doesn't it mean that those demons are almost all dead?"

"I think in less than half a month, these demons should be able to stop. By then, we won't have to guard here all the time."

Fang Ren spoke out his analysis conclusions.

But Wu Qun beside him suddenly stopped and fell behind him without saying a word.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?"

Fang Ren looked back and saw Wu Qun with a terrified look on his face, staring blankly outside the city wall.

He followed Wu Qun's gaze.

But in the vast and boundless darkness outside the city, pairs of scarlet eyes lit up.

There are hundreds and thousands of them, densely packed together, some of which are as huge as mountains!

These... are all demons!

"Quick, quick, send a signal, the demons are attacking the city!"

Fang Ren's face changed drastically and he hurriedly took out a firework from his waist.

This is the fireworks prepared by the City Guard for the captains. Once it is ignited and the fireworks rise into the sky, it means that a large number of demons are coming to attack at night.

Fang Ren grabbed the handle of the firework and pointed it towards the sky.

However, at this moment, his body suddenly stiffened and his pupils suddenly shrank!

next moment.

An extremely huge shadow completely covered the sky above Fang Ren's head!
"boom!"

The sharp claws, which were several meters long and wide, smashed the city wall that was more than ten meters high, crushing Wu Qun and Fang Ren together!
The owner of the sharp claws let out a low howl.

Afterwards, countless demons behind him poured into Yanyang City through the gap in the city wall like a tide!
tonight.

Outside the city, the "Green Demons" launched a massive attack on the city, and countless demons swarmed in!
