Beginning with the Five Animals Fist to Become a Saint

Chapter 293 Promotion to the Eighth Rank! (Monthly Ticket Request!!)

Internal Affairs Office.

In the yard.

The old woman looked at the expression on Jiang Ning's face and immediately revealed an expression that showed that this child is teachable.

Then she spoke again.

"The four steps of external training for body building and the ninth-grade skin polishing have a higher level of secret methods that are not passed on to others."

"The eighth level of divine power does not have this kind of peculiarity."

"For the seventh-grade tendon refining step, if there is one, it can only be called dragon tendon."

"However, there are many external objects in the world's sects and various forces that can help to achieve the formation of dragon tendons. The Shenglong Pill of the Inspection Mansion is one of them."

"Sixth-grade bone forging. The secret method of this step is to forge the legendary divine bone."

"The importance of the divine bone is no less than that of the golden body."

"When you forge divine bones, your body will become extremely terrifying."

“If a sixth-rank warrior can forge a divine bone, not to mention the sixth-rank is invincible, even a fifth-rank peak warrior will retreat when seeing this thing.”

"A powerful person who controls the situation at the fourth level will also have a headache."

Hearing this, Jiang Ning couldn't help but speak again.

"What if you possess both the golden body and divine bones?"

Upon hearing this, the old woman glanced at Jiang Ning.

“If one possesses both the golden body and divine bones, even if one has not yet entered the stage of internal cultivation of the five internal organs, but is still in the stage of external cultivation, one can be called invincible below the Grandmaster.”

"You can bathe in a rain of arrows. If a person like this is on the battlefield, no one can kill him unless the Grandmaster takes action."

"And even if the Grandmaster takes action," the old woman hesitated for a moment, then continued, "it would still be difficult to kill! The only way for the Grandmaster to kill a warrior who has cultivated to the extreme is to shatter his internal organs!"

Having said this, the old woman smiled.

“But in reality, if someone can really forge a divine golden body, they will receive countless resources and will soon be able to achieve success in internal training. How could their internal organs become obvious weak points?”

"And as the martial arts realm rises, the divine bone golden body will further transform and become more terrifying."

"In ancient times, this kind of person was able to defeat immortals at the peak of the first rank. He was a mortal with flesh and blood, and was said to be on par with immortals and gods."

Hearing the last words from Grandma Bai's mouth, Jiang Ning was shocked all over.

“On par with immortals and gods?”

"Can this really be done?"

The old woman glanced at Jiang Ning calmly and said, "Why should I doubt this? In ancient times, such achievements have already been recorded."

Hearing this, Jiang Ning took a breath of cold air.

At the peak of the first rank, with his divine bones and golden body, he is on par with immortals and gods.

What about the Martial Saint?

Thinking of this, he immediately asked.

"Senior, a peak first-rank master can rival immortals and gods with his divine bones and golden body, so what about a martial saint?"

"Martial Saint?" The old woman smiled and said, "In the ancient times, immortals and gods did not completely disappear. The Martial Saint has killed many remnant immortals and minor gods."

"A remnant immortal? A little god?" Jiang Ning looked surprised.

The old woman looked at Jiang Ning speechlessly, then seemed to have thought of something and immediately explained patiently.

"There are differences between immortals and gods."

"The difference between a weak and a strong immortal is no less than the difference between a beginner in martial arts and a martial saint."

“So does God!”

"The end of the ancient times involves secrets that are too terrifying. I would be terrified if I heard about it. I dare not know too much about it."

"You only need to know one thing. The end of that era also represents the end of immortals and gods, and also the change of the environment of heaven and earth."

“The transition between the two eras is like a fishing net falling. The big fish have nowhere to escape, and the only ones who can get out of the gaps in the net are small fish and shrimp.”

"Because of the changes in the environment of heaven and earth and the loss of spiritual inspiration, the path to immortality has been cut off. Immortals no longer have the magical powers they once had, so they are called residual immortals."

"The imperfection of heaven and earth is also the imperfection of immortals."

"And among the gods, even in such a calamity, there are still some minor gods who can rely on incense to survive, instead of the gods who once did not need to be believed in."

"Many of these minor gods are worshipped with incense, but are also poisoned by the incense, and have degenerated into evil gods."

"The founding of Daxia and the creation of a human kingdom was not so simple and smooth."

"The Martial Saint has naturally killed quite a few, including immortals and gods."

"The peak of the first rank was the pinnacle of martial arts in ancient times, the end of martial arts."

"If you forge a divine golden body at the pinnacle of martial arts, you can kill immortals and gods, not to mention the Martial Saint who has gone one step further at the pinnacle of martial arts."

At the end of her speech, the old woman's eyes swept over Jiang Ning again.

The reason why she could hold her temper and talk so much was because Jiang Ning amazed her time and time again.

She now even suspects that Jiang Ning is not Jiang Ning.

Because the environment of heaven and earth is beginning to recover, she knows it and she is also a direct beneficiary.

She also knew that in the terror of ancient times, no one with great powers escaped, but some people with lesser powers still managed to escape.

Some people are also seeking reincarnation to cultivate for the fruit of the Tao in another life.

Just like the most famous Taoists and Buddhists of our time.

As far as she knew, these two people were rare successful ones among those with minor supernatural powers.

She now suspects that Jiang Ning might be such a person.

Otherwise she would have started to doubt her life.

But she did not feel any of the old aura from Jiang Ning.

So this speculation is just speculation.

at the same time.

When Jiang Ning heard the old woman's words, he instantly realized that the so-called immortals and gods were not that powerful.

Martial arts were not as weak as he had imagined.

The peak of the first grade, that is, the peak of martial arts, if one can forge a golden body of divine bones, one can create the strongest body in the world.

With his supreme strength in martial arts, he is comparable to ordinary immortals and gods.

Nowadays, due to the times, the immortals and gods are weaker in strength than those in ancient times, because they rely more on the external environment than warriors.

After knowing this information, Jiang Ning felt relieved.

What he was most worried about before was that the Black Lotus Mother would come to visit him one day in the future.

As for the Palace Master of Shuiyue Sword Palace, he was not very worried.

She is a court official, and the Palace Master of Shuiyue Sword Palace is not a person without worries. Standing behind her is Shuiyue Sword Palace.

No matter what, she has to take this identity into consideration.

Moreover, Da Xia has not yet been completely thrown into chaos. No matter how strong she is, she can only be considered an expert in the small area of ​​Dongling County.

Looking across Da Xia, there are countless people who can defeat her.

If she really dares to act arrogantly, one day Shuiyue Sword Palace might become the first to be exposed and be razed to the ground.

Jiang Ning also believed that the Palace Master could go this far and make Shuiyue Sword Palace the most powerful force in Dongling County. Such a person could not be a fool, and he could not be unaware of the pros and cons.

Just like the previous master of Yaowang Valley, Lu Qingshan.

How powerful was I at that time, and how powerful was Lu Qingshan, the master of Medicine King Valley?

But at that time, Lu Qingshan chose to completely expose the feud between him and Yaowang Valley when he was still weak.

The key point is his identity at that time.

The deputy commander of the Luoshui County Inspection Office, an eighth-rank official.

To touch him would be a blatant provocation to the Inspection Office and the Martial Saint Office.

The same applies now when facing the Palace Master of Shuiyue Sword Palace.

Unless she is crazy, how dare she act rashly?

Moreover, the strength at the peak of the fourth rank did not make him feel so awe-inspiring.

In another thirty to five days, the forging of the jade bones would be completed, and his achievement in the ninth level of martial arts would make him a fifth-level warrior.

If everything goes smoothly and the weather is good, in about a month, he will be able to condense his inner energy into a powerful energy, further narrowing the gap between him and the Palace Master of Shuiyue Sword Palace.

So he was not very worried about this matter.

As for the trouble with the God-worshipping religion, that is even simpler.

By the time the God of Flesh and Blood could find trouble for him, the Black Lotus Mother would have already come.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning suddenly felt relieved.

He also understood that his top priority now was to be promoted to a higher official position, increase his authority in the Inspection Office, and learn more advanced information about martial arts.

"Senior!" Jiang Ning bowed: "If I want to be promoted, do I only need enough contribution points?" The old woman glanced at Jiang Ning and immediately understood the purpose of Jiang Ning's visit today.

She nodded immediately: "The contribution points of the Inspection Office represent the merits you have made for the Inspection Office. If the merits are sufficient, you can naturally be promoted."

Jiang Ning heard this and asked again: "Senior, I want to know how much authority is required to obtain information about the fifth level of martial arts from the mansion?"

"With your current eighth-rank official position, you only need to be promoted half a level." said the old woman.

"How many contribution points are needed to get promoted half a level?" Jiang Ning asked again.

"One hundred thousand!" said the old woman.

Hearing this number, Jiang Ning couldn't help but take a breath.

One hundred thousand contribution points, even at the official exchange rate for silver, is equivalent to spending one hundred thousand taels of silver to buy a promotion in official rank.

How many contribution points are needed for future promotion?

Thinking of this, he felt secretly distressed.

If one hundred thousand silvers were used to buy rare treasures for him to absorb, it could bring a considerable increase in source energy points.

But now I am spending it like this, it would be a lie to say I don’t feel sad.

But thinking about the importance of promotion in official position and authority, he knew that this was also a necessary sacrifice.

at this time.

The old woman looked at Jiang Ning again.

"You feel a little sad, right?" She already knew that Jiang Ning's accumulated contribution points had exceeded 100,000 points, and she also knew that Jiang Ning could afford this amount of contribution points.

"It does hurt a bit!" Jiang Ning nodded sincerely.

Hearing this, the old woman said calmly: "Go and take the martial arts exam!"

"A military candidate?" Jiang Ning was somewhat surprised by what the old woman said.

The old woman nodded slightly: "With your ability, it won't be difficult to pass the martial arts exam!"

In the Inspection Office, if you have merit, the contribution points required for official promotion will be halved."

"If you can obtain the title of Wu Xiucai, the contribution points required for promotion to an official rank below the seventh rank will be halved."

"If you can win the military examination, the contribution points required for promotion to the fifth rank will be halved."

"If you can win the title of Wu Zhuang, the contribution points required for promotion to the third rank will be halved."

"As for going further up, it's no longer a matter of contribution points."

Jiang Ning was immediately moved when he heard this.

He had planned to take part in the military examination before.

In Daxia, fame and honor are one of the best amulets.

It is no less important than holding an official position.

So he had plans in this regard.

He planned to take part in this year's military and civil examinations in the spring, gaining both honors and honors, in addition to his official position in the Inspection Office.

Anyone who wants to touch him needs to think twice.

This is also the reason why he is not particularly worried about Shuiyue Sword Palace.

Now after hearing what the old woman said, he became even more determined.

When the martial arts examination begins, he will have to go to Dongling City to take part in it.

On the path of the military examination, the lowest rank is Wu Xiucai, which requires going to Dongling City to take part in the military examination.

The old woman couldn't help but smile when she saw Jiang Ning's thoughtful look.

"How about you just be patient and wait until spring comes, gain fame first, and then come to me to spend contribution points in exchange for a higher position and authority?"

"No!" Jiang Ning immediately shook his head, and then ten gold-inlaid jade beads appeared in his hand instantly!
A piece of gold inlaid with jade represents ten thousand contribution points.

Ten yuan represents one hundred thousand contribution points.

These ten gold-inlaid jade beads were obtained from his last meritorious service in wiping out the most important stronghold of the God Worshiping Cult in the outer city area, and among the warriors killed in the God Worshiping Cult was a sixth-rank warrior.

At the same time, the statue of the god of flesh and blood that was once enshrined in the City God Temple was also found.

The total contribution points he earned at that time was 107,000, which also gave him the ten gold-inlaid jade beads in his hand, representing 100,000 contribution points.

When the old woman saw the ten gold-inlaid jade beads in Jiang Ning's hand, she looked at Jiang Ning with surprise.

"Have you decided?"

"It's decided!" Jiang Ning nodded.

Hearing this, the old woman couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

Jiang Ning was so decisive that he was not willing to wait for a month until spring came.

How could she not understand what this meant.

"Is the jade bone ready?" asked the old woman.

"Almost there!" Jiang Ning said.

"Little monster!" The old woman was slightly frightened and uttered three words.

next moment.

She raised her hand and the gold-inlaid jade pendant in Jiang Ning's hand instantly flew into her hand.

"Identity token!" the old woman said.

Hearing this, the golden token representing his identity appeared in Jiang Ning's hand.

The token then flew into the old woman's hand and disappeared in an instant.

next moment.

A golden token appeared in the old woman's hand again.

The size and color are not much different from the identity token that Jiang Ning had just handed over, and it is also golden in color.

But Jiang Ning saw that the pattern on the token was completely different.

There are two words "Bapin" on the top of the front.

These two words shine brightly with golden light under the sunlight.

"Jiangning, right?" the old woman asked.

"Yes, senior!" Jiang Ning said.

Hearing this, the old woman extended her index finger and placed it on the token.

rustling --

The golden fragments fell, and the two big words "Jiangning" slowly appeared on the front of the token.

Condensing Qi into Gang?

Seeing this scene, Jiang Ning was surprised and unsure.

"Take it!" The old woman took less than two breaths to leave Jiang Ning's name on the brand new token.

whoosh-

The token broke through the air, bringing up a whistling sound of wind.

Seeing the golden light coming, Jiang Ning raised his hand and grabbed it, and the token fell steadily into his hand.

"This is your identity token, a genuine eighth-grade token!"

"But your current position of Eighth Rank is still a nominal one. I will report to Dongling County later. It will take some time for you to get a real position. As for whether you will be promoted where you are or transferred to another place, it depends on the arrangements above."

After hearing what the old woman said, Jiang Ning immediately understood.

Currently, there are only four people in the eighth rank in the Inspection Office, and all of them are commanders.

A carrot and a pit.

I have been promoted to the eighth rank. If I wait for arrangements from above, either one of the four commanders will be transferred, or I will be transferred.

Between these two options, if he had to choose, he would rather stay in Luoshui County than be transferred to a place where he is unfamiliar with the place.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ning looked at the old woman and immediately spoke.

"Senior, can I choose to be promoted on the spot?"

The old woman was not surprised.

She shook her head slowly and continued, "Unless you can get one of the four commanders here to be transferred and take over, if the transfer order comes down from above, you can only accept it or resign."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning could only nod slightly to show his acceptance.

Immediately, he stopped thinking about this problem for the time being.

The water flows to the lower places, and the people go to the higher places.

He will leave Luoshui County one day.

Before that, he needs to further improve his strength.
