Changsheng: My experience in patrolling the liver

Chapter 251: Shaking the Earth and the Sky, the Ten Years of Dalai! (Two in One)
The peddler knew all about Song Changming's deeds, but he didn't know that the Song Changming right in front of him was the Dragon Sword Hero Song he mentioned.

In that era without the Internet, most people knew the name but not the appearance of the person, which was perfectly normal.

Now, Su Qingqing was completely satisfied with the candied haws in one hand and the candy man in the other.

Song Changming came here from afar to witness Gu Wenhui's ascension to the throne, and of course it was not just to join in the fun.

Witnessing major events as they happen, even if one does not actually participate in them, has practical benefits.

If the annual evaluation can be improved to a certain extent, the final reward will naturally be better.

Of course, even Li Jinyu, a master of fortune telling, could not understand these secrets.

After becoming emperor, Gu Wenhui reorganized the court team.

Some are happy and some are sad.

Many high-ranking officials in the imperial court and their families fell into decline overnight, while new nobles emerged and became popular figures in the imperial court.

Gu Wenhui did not stop wielding the sword in his hand. He directly sent out a large army in the name of the new emperor to sweep through the remaining dozen states and counties.

Anyone who does not submit to him will be eliminated and completely defeated head-on with absolute military force.

He had planned all these things long before attacking Yunling City.

Now, once they move, they will do so with the force of thunder, and the army will be invincible and sweep across the country.

Everyone knows that this is probably the last battle for the Dalai Kingdom to unify the world!

Not long after Song Changming returned to Wangyue County, he received his annual evaluation this year.

【Annual Review: A year that witnessed history! 】

[Martial Arts: This year you have made great progress in martial arts. You have gathered the fifth cyclone and reached the fifth level of Qi Refining. You have learned and mastered the third-grade Zhengyang Jue and the eighth-grade Feilei Jue.]

[Battle record: This year's record is impressive. You fought against the Sword Master Nan Wuji and killed many powerful enemies from outside the domain.]

[Power and reputation: This year you have become a well-known martial arts expert. Your stories are being told in the streets and alleys. The Changming Society under your command has become a top-notch force in the martial arts world.]

[Family: Alone, loneliness deducts points]

[Events: 1. Contact with Xiantian! 2. The new emperor ascends the throne, the Dalai Kingdom is established, witness history! ]

【Please select the annual reward. 】

[1. Lifespan +5000. 2. Lifespan -2000, improve internal energy. 3. Lifespan -3000, can upgrade a related physical quality (swordsman, strong and powerful, light as the wind, Qigong practitioner, meditator). 4. Consume lifespan -400, attribute points +4.]

【Note: You can choose two of the four items as rewards. 】

"Sure enough." Song Changming said secretly.

For a major historical event like the establishment of a new country, even if one does not participate in it, just being an observer and witnessing the process is worthy of being nominated as an event, which can improve his evaluation score significantly.

In addition, several key events such as his breakthrough to the fifth level of Qi Refining, his acquisition of a set of third-grade martial arts techniques, and his duel with the world's number one sword master also raised his annual evaluation score.

The final annual award made Song Changming's eyes light up.

Although no new physical characteristics appeared this time, he was able to further upgrade several green-grade physical characteristics he already possessed!

This is the reward he has been waiting for for a long time.

His several green-grade physical characteristics have been almost fully developed over the years.

Only the blue-grade dragon body was still accompanying his body refining process, constantly strengthening his physical potential.

However, if those green-grade physical characteristics cannot continue to be upgraded and strengthened, everything else is fine. What he is most worried about is whether there will be a bottleneck in physical training in the future and that the body's potential will be developed to the limit.

After all, he has now developed his physical body, especially his strength, to the level of eight elephants, and is even close to the strength of nine elephants.

This is an astonishing and terrifying power that other warriors can hardly imagine.

The extent to which his physical body can be strengthened in the future depends entirely on his physical characteristics and the physical potential brought about by his talent attribute values.

Even though it would cost him three thousand years of life, he chose this reward without hesitation.

The huge loss of lifespan is certainly painful for him, but it is equivalent to exchanging his life for his talent and potential.

The lifespan he had accumulated over the years could now be exchanged!

If it really doesn't work, the worst that can happen is that you can make up for it with future annual rewards or by choosing a few more lifespans.

This time, for the second reward item out of four choices, he chose the four attribute values ​​that made him covetous.

Although he also wanted to choose the reward for improving his internal energy cultivation, he now has the physical characteristics of a green-grade Qi Refiner, and his daily internal energy cultivation speed is already very fast.

Unless he encounters a major crisis in the near future and urgently needs to improve his cultivation and enhance his strength, the priority of the reward item for improving his internal energy cultivation is not as high as these four attribute values ​​in his eyes.

During the previous five years of dull cultivation, with not many good annual rewards, he basically chose attribute values.

He knew very well that only by constantly accumulating these qualifications and attributes could he continuously touch higher levels of martial arts realm and climb up step by step.

Currently his spiritual attributes have reached forty-six points.

The root attribute reached fifty-four points.

He once thought that these two values ​​should be considered very high.

But it depends on who you compare yourself with.

If compared with ordinary warriors, his talent can be called a martial arts genius, standing out from the crowd.

But after a tour around Longmen Ridge, he found that his talent was not too outstanding among the martial arts masters from outside the domain, not to mention the innate masters from the Guyuan Kingdom.

If his daily evaluation of his cultivation status bonus and annual rewards were removed, his cultivation performance would probably be much worse. He estimated that he was not as good as Nan Wuji and Su Yaoguang.

It may not even be as good as Nan Chenguang.
In general, not counting the panel assistance, among all the top martial arts masters in Dahan, he believes that in terms of pure training aptitude, he can only barely reach the middle level, and is not top-notch at all.

In this regard, he has a clear self-awareness.

After a brief thought, Song Changming added these four attribute values ​​to his spiritual attributes, bringing it to fifty points.

This would speed up his progress in practicing martial arts and also help in refining his mental strength.

Both of these are what he needs.

Especially since his third-grade Zhengyang Jue was so difficult to practice, he needed to improve his spiritual attributes even more.

Then comes the focus of this annual awards.

He wants to upgrade a physical characteristic.

Except for the dragon body, which is already of blue grade, the remaining five physical characteristics can be upgraded.

Among these, no matter which one he upgrades, the help and impact on him will be significant.

It’s a pity that he can only choose one out of five this time.

This time he thought deeply for a long time before deciding to strengthen the characteristic 'Strong and Powerful'.

The reason why he strengthened this characteristic was because the thing that was most likely to reach the bottleneck limit first was his enhanced strength.

Therefore, if he wants to improve his potential, he also hopes to improve his strength first and raise the upper limit of this bottleneck.

As for the other physical characteristics, just wait for the opportunity to upgrade them later.

After confirmation, within a moment, the originally green-grade powerful attribute on his panel turned into an upgraded version with a blue glow.

Blue physical characteristic 'Shake the Earth and Shake the Sky'!
Then, before he could take a closer look, he felt something strange coming from his body.

He was not surprised, this was just the beginning of the initial transformation.

Every time he acquires a new trait, especially a higher-grade trait, it will always bring him more obvious physical changes at the first moment.

My heart was pounding like a war drum, and my blood was surging like ocean waves.

Waves of hot energy that seemed to be generated out of thin air repeatedly washed over his body, as if reshaping his entire body.

After a long time, he seemed to be reborn, as if completely transformed.

A thick layer of impurities of sweat was discharged from the body surface. Song Changming was well prepared and jumped into the bathtub to take a bath.

While opening the panel, take a closer look at the new features after the upgrade.

Shake the Earth and the Sky (Blue): A person born with supernatural powers, possessing extremely high strength growth characteristics, which can be developed to the limit to shake the heavens and the earth, and shake the mountains and rivers!

"Born with supernatural powers?" Song Changming said to himself.

It must be said that when it comes to the physical characteristics of the first level of blue grade, the effects described become exaggerated.

The power to shake the earth and the sky!

It sounds extraordinary!

He stretched out his hand in the water and clenched his fist suddenly. With a bang, half a bucket of water seemed to be crushed by Song Changming's hand and splashed out.

"The power of the nine elephants!"

Song Changming was very confident and judged the terrifying power contained in his body at that moment.

Before upgrading this feature, he was still some distance away from attaining the Power of Nine Elephants. Now, not only has he reached the Power of Nine Elephants in one fell swoop, he has also overflowed!

This can be considered a small gain before developing this new feature.

Of course, he will not be satisfied with his current powerful strength. After the new features are further developed, his power level will rise infinitely!
The acquisition of this new feature made him think that even if he really couldn't reach the Xiantian realm, so what? !

In the future, when he can smash the sects’ mountains with one punch, he will want to see if the so-called innate strong men in the mountain gates dare to say a word to him!
"It would be best if I can reach the innate level. If not, I will find my own way of cultivation!" Song Changming muttered to himself.

In the second year of Dalai, Emperor Gu's cavalry swept across the eight directions, and after a year, successfully recovered all 52 states and counties.

Anyone who dared to disobey the order would be put to death, while those who surrendered could have a chance to survive if they handed over their troops.

From then on, Dalai's world was completely unified!
The people who had suffered for more than twenty years finally ushered in the peace they had longed for.

Everyone was praising the new emperor and the establishment of the Dalai Dynasty!

There will be no more wars in the world, and people will no longer have to worry about being displaced or separated from their families.

The era of peace and prosperity seems to be approaching.

however.

In the fifth year of Dalai, the evil cult members from outside the region colluded with the remnants of Dahan to launch a war of revival that would go down in history.

Emperor Gu personally led the army to fight against the evil cult and the remnants of the Han Dynasty, and joined forces with the major hidden sects in the world.

The remnants of the Dahan were quickly defeated, but the evil cult members from outside the region were very resilient. They sometimes hid themselves and sometimes showed up, fighting endlessly with the entire Dalai Dynasty and were fed up with it.

Fortunately, compared to the turbulent times in the past when dynasties collapsed and warlords fought for supremacy, now it is only the rampant evil cults from outside the region that are causing more disturbances in the martial world.

For ordinary people, the impact on the vast world of Dalai was not very great, at least not to the extent of shaking the foundation of the dynasty. Only some local people were affected.

then.

Dalai ten years.

Ten years have passed like a storm, and life has changed several times.

Time flies in the blink of an eye.

The green mountains remain the same, the green waters flow forever, but the things in the world that change the most are the things in the world.
Wangyue County.

As the border state closest to the outside world, it has been most severely invaded by foreign cults.

A town fell, was recaptured, and fell again, and this could be repeated for a full ten years!
If it weren't for the hidden and powerful sect Wangyue Pavilion that was in charge of this place, this state would have probably been completely incorporated into the foreign territory long ago.

In fact, even with the Wangyue Pavilion, they never gained much advantage in the war with the cult.

Without Su Yaoguang, the deterrent and suppressive power of Wangyue Pavilion are far less powerful than before.

Fortunately, Gu Wenhui, who was far away in the capital of Yunling, did not abandon Wangyue County. He sent a group of powerful generals and troops to garrison there and work together with Wangyue Pavilion to fight against the evil cults from outside the region.

With the help of other aspiring people from the martial arts world, the entire Wangyue County can be defended.

Wangyue County City, Liu's House.

Ten years into the Dalai Dynasty, the house remained the same, but it looked a little older.

The courtyard wall has many cracks and is falling off. The house is quaint, and the passage of time has brought a heavy sense of age.

In the yard, the old trees planted are bare and have lost all their leaves.

A few crows landed on the branches in the yard, moving their heads as if to comb their hair. Their little black eyes stared at the old tree from time to time, sizing up the aged body.

They smelled a faint odor of decay.

Song Changming suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the black crows, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

He just flicked his fingers imperceptibly, and several invisible gusts of wind scared away the black crows in an instant.

Liu Dingsheng in front of him was unaware of anything. He was staring at the chessboard in front of him with a frown, focused and serious.

A gust of wind blew, and a few yellow leaves on the ground were lifted up and fell onto their chessboard.

Liu Dingsheng moved the fallen leaves to the ground, looked at them for a while, and suddenly put down the chess piece in his hand, sighed softly, and said helplessly: "Changming, I can't beat you."

"The kid won by luck." Song Changming shook his head.

Liu Dingsheng shook his head and laughed, without saying anything more.

He knew very well that there was no such thing as luck, as Song Changming's chess skills had already surpassed his by far.

Another gust of autumn wind blew, bringing some coolness to the yard.

Liu Dingsheng took a sip of tea and looked absentmindedly at the sky above the courtyard wall, where the wind was rising and the clouds were rolling.

"Unconsciously, ten years have passed since the Dalai Dynasty. Is the world peaceful now?"

"Compared with the war-torn era of warlord separatism in the past, the world is stable now. Only the evil cult members from foreign countries are still causing trouble." Song Changming replied truthfully.

Liu Dingsheng has long since retired, and he is no longer as well-informed about many things in the outside world as he was in the past.

"Is that so." Liu Dingsheng murmured.

"Time flies by so fast. It seems like I was in Dahan yesterday, and I am in Dalai today. After all, people like me should be citizens of Dahan. Today's Dalai has nothing to do with me."

Liu Dingsheng had spent his entire life in the Dahan Dynasty, and the matter of being a Dahan citizen had already left a deep mark in his mind and could no longer be changed.

He was a man of the old times, and all his memories were left in Dahan, in that era.

Song Changming seemed to have realized something, and as he looked at Liu Dingsheng in front of him, he became even more silent.

"It's getting a little cold, Changming, I should go take a rest." After a moment of silence, Liu Dingsheng suddenly stood up and said with a smile.

After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and slowly walked into the inner room.

Song Changming sat alone in the yard, quietly watching the chess game that had ended.

Many emotions surged in my heart.

He thought he had let it go over the years, but when this moment came again, he still felt lost.

After a moment, he sighed, stood up and went to find Liu Ziwen.

"Send someone to call Miss Yan'er." Song Changming said.

After hearing this, Liu Zi reacted instantly and strode into the inner room.

I saw Liu Dingsheng lying quietly on the bed with his eyes closed, and he had passed away peacefully.

"Mr. Liu has already told me about his funeral arrangements. I will make them." Liu Ziwen said with a sad look on his face and red eyes.

"Um"

A few days later, in a bamboo forest on a hill outside the county town.

This was the burial place that Liu Dingsheng had chosen long ago, and now he was buried here as he wished.

Liu Dingsheng had made countless good friends and confidants in his life, but the only ones who could see him off for the last time were Song Changming, Liu Yaner, Liu Ziwen and other close people with whom he had been with day and night.

Most of the acquaintances he had made in the past have turned into dry bones and dust, and he was the last one to die of old age.

Song Changming placed a chessboard in front of the grave, and Liu Ziwen brought Liu Dingsheng's favorite wine and placed it beside it.

Liu Yan'er hung a bouquet of flowers on the grave.

She is now mature and charming, and her temperament is increasingly similar to that of her master, Fairy Yuehan, and she exudes a cool aura.

Her eyes were filled with tears, but she did not let them fall. She pursed her lips to hold them back.

The character she had honed over the years did not allow her to shed tears, and she could only grieve silently in her heart.

The last relative in the world is gone. From now on, she will walk alone in this world, pursuing martial arts wholeheartedly and following her master to revitalize Wangyue Pavilion!

Liu Yan'er has grown up and no longer needs Song Changming to protect her.

"Brother Liu, Brother Song, you guys go back first. I'll guard this place." Liu Yan'er said to the others.

As Liu Dingsheng's only granddaughter, it is reasonable for her to stay and look after the grave.

"It's okay. I'll stay a little longer too." Song Changming said.

Liu Ziwen had no plan to leave either.

Only after the grave-guarding mission was over did everyone return to Liu's residence.

All of Liu Dingsheng's subordinates, channels, and assets had already been entrusted to Liu Ziwen early on.

In other words, Liu Ziwen is their new boss.

As for Liu Yan'er, she was doing very well in Wangyue Pavilion and had her own martial arts path to pursue, so naturally she had no time to take care of the trivial matters of Liu Dingsheng's subordinates.

Liu Dingsheng knew this, so he handed everything over to Liu Ziwen, letting him take full control.

Originally, Liu Dingsheng had considered entrusting it to Song Changming.

After all, in terms of strength, Song Changming can definitely protect his subordinates, including Liu Ziwen, and they all have a very strong backer.

This way, he would be able to give a relatively satisfactory explanation to his subordinates after he left.

However, Song Changming did not accept it. After all, it was Liu Ziwen who had always been in charge of all the affairs under Liu Dingsheng.

It is somewhat unreasonable for him to interfere at this time.

If Liu Ziwen really encountered danger and desperate situation, given their relationship, he would not sit idly by.

On the way back, Song Changming calmed his mind and looked into the distance, which was the direction outside the domain.

To be more precise, it is the location of the abyss!

Ten long years have passed, and now it’s time for him to move on!
