Changsheng: My experience in patrolling the liver

Chapter 706 Immortal Affairs, Heavenly Blessing! (Two Chapters Combined)

By the time it was Song Changming's turn, more than half of the immortals had already performed.

Song Changming stepped forward and also took out a halberd.

The reason for not using a more powerful sword is that this is just a demonstration of the results of the combat techniques learned, not a real battle. The halberd, which is most suitable for the combat techniques, is sufficient for the performance.

Song Changming didn't stand on ceremony and immediately began to use his battle tactics.

Instantly, an extremely powerful killing aura burst forth from the halberd, like a raging dragon sweeping in all directions, its overwhelming power stretching for dozens of miles, encompassing all the immortals.

Song Changming attacked step by step, his power steadily increasing, and the exquisite details of his battle tactics were fully displayed in the dance of his halberd!
For a moment, all the immortals were stunned.

"The fighting techniques this person uses seem almost as good as those of the instructor!" Many people were surprised, and this was their first impression.

"Such power is far more than just a rudimentary understanding; it suggests that the practitioner has already mastered this combat technique to a high level and is completely proficient in it!"

Those with keen insight have already realized that Song Changming's battle tactics are no longer on the same level as theirs!

"Just who is this person?"

"Could it be that he had already practiced this combat technique before?"

"It must be! They definitely escaped!"

"."

Among all the immortals, there were those who marveled, and those who refused to admit it and subconsciously questioned it.

Tian Leizi, who had been paying close attention to Song Changming, knew very well that there was no such thing as sneaking away; this was simply a case of overwhelming talent, standing out from the crowd.

"This child has a bright future; he's destined for greatness," Tian Leizi thought, his expression softening considerably as he looked at Song Changming.

After all, the other party might rise above him in the future, so it would be best to establish a good relationship with them this time, or at least be careful not to offend them.

Soon, Song Changming finished his technique, and as the power of his battle technique subsided, the oppressive and chilling feeling dissipated in everyone's hearts.

They thought to themselves that if Song Changming really used this tactic against them, they really wouldn't be able to withstand it.

“Excellent, young friend. You have a bright future ahead of you. I congratulate you in advance. I was hoping to give you some pointers, but it seems that I won’t need to now.”

On Tian Leizi's somewhat hardened face, he seemed to force a smile as he tried to befriend Song Changming.

"Coach Liao is right," Song Changming replied.

Tian Leizi stopped short of making a point, without going too far in trying to flatter or praise Song Changming.

"Everyone, go back and rest. We'll meet again when the bell rings next time." After all the immortals had finished their tests, Tian Leizi dismissed them and flew away.

“Brother Song, why don’t we go together to collect the Heavenly Blessing?” Wei Xuanlang invited Song Changming.

Tianlu refers to the salary of a heavenly soldier serving in the heavens.

It's usually received once a year, or you can accumulate it over several years and receive it once a year.

Ordinary celestial soldiers can receive fifty mid-grade Immortal Nourishing Pills a year, which is quite a lot.

It's equivalent to working a job on this day for a year and having enough money for a magic weapon, with even a considerable surplus.

If they were to use the elixir themselves, Tianlu could ensure that they could take a mid-grade Immortal Nourishing Pill approximately every seven days, which was excellent.

Moreover, this is only the lowest rank of Heavenly Soldiers. If one has extensive experience or has made meritorious contributions, this rank can be increased.

Why do so many immortals in the mortal realm want to go to heaven and become celestial officials?

Besides having a behemoth like the Celestial Court as a backer, the guaranteed income and security of this heavenly reward are also a major attraction for immortals in the lower realms.

Just like Song Changming, he only practiced combat techniques this year and hadn't made any contributions to the Celestial Court yet, but he was able to get such a Nourishing Immortal Pill for free.

“Okay.” Song Changming readily agreed.

His family was poor and he desperately needed the Elixir of Immortality, so this Heavenly Blessing came at just the right time.

"If I am to receive the Heavenly Blessing, may I also accompany you?" A celestial being, upon hearing what Wei Xuanlang said, was moved and immediately came over as well.

“I know where the military camp’s salary platform is, so I will lead the way,” another immortal said as he approached.

"My name is Pei Hu."

"My name is Xu Qingfeng."

Song Changming's performance was truly outstanding; even the instructor greeted him with a smile.

If there are official celestial soldier slots available, Song Changming is definitely the first one to be chosen, and he may even become a candidate for celestial general in the future.

Such a person is someone that even the more astute immortals would already be thinking about how to get close to.

At the very least, they should become familiar faces during their reserve service.

Otherwise, there might not even be a chance to get close to Song Changming in the future.

"Should I give him some of my own Heavenly Blessings?" Xu Qingfeng couldn't help but weigh the options in her mind.

Meanwhile, a number of other immortals from the same group soon gathered around.

"Let's go together, let's go together."

Once this was initiated, a group of twenty or thirty people set off together.

The Receiving Platform was the place where the soldiers in the military camp received their imperial stipends, and it was also an important administrative center of the military camp.

Behind it stands a grand celestial palace on a sacred mountain, Tianlu Mansion!

The Tianlu Prefecture is specifically responsible for coordinating and managing all celestial officials, and the various salary-granting platforms in this military camp are naturally one of its subordinate departments.

The process of receiving the Heavenly Blessing was smooth and there was no need to queue.

These immortals are far more efficient than ordinary people. They can verify identities with a thought and deliver immortal-nourishing pills to them with a wave of their hand.

It is worth mentioning that the Celestial Court does not have low-grade pills; the lowest grade pills are all of medium quality.

To the celestial officials of the Celestial Court, so-called low-grade pills were not much different from useless pills.

Having received his imperial decree, Song Changming returned to his long-lost barracks at the foot of the sacred mountain.

In the year since he became a heavenly soldier, he has only been to this place twice.

Sitting on the immortal stone bed, Song Changming flipped his hand, and six rows of immortal-nourishing pills, each emitting a divine light, were lined up in front of him.

The fragrance of the elixir filled the air, making the entire barracks where Song Changming was located even more imbued with a mystical aura.

"That's great." Song Changming smiled with satisfaction.

These immortal-nourishing pills are not only his assets, but can also be converted into his immortal cultivation at any time, so naturally the more the better.

He now has a total of sixty-three mid-grade Immortal Nourishing Pills, which is more than enough for him to return to the ancient ruins of the Immortal City and directly bid for a mid-grade magic weapon, or even more.

Unfortunately, he is currently just an ordinary celestial soldier in reserve for the Celestial Court and does not have the right to descend to the mortal realm on his own.

In fact, he no longer has the same enthusiasm he once had for the ancient treasures he had seen before.

On the one hand, becoming a celestial soldier inevitably changed his mindset, and he might not even care about ordinary magical treasures anymore. On the other hand, the sword and halberd bestowed upon him by the Celestial Court, as well as his celestial soldier silver armor, had already fully armed him.

Although they are all standard armor and weapons, they have all reached the level of magical treasures.

Using immortal power to activate the Heavenly Soldier Silver Armor can activate a layer of immortal seal, making its already formidable protective and defensive capabilities even stronger by 50%!

Under the Immortal Seal, even a True Immortal from the lower realm would find it extremely difficult to break through his Heavenly Soldier Armor!
If one uses immortal power to activate the combat boots on their feet, it can trigger an effect similar to divine speed, instantly increasing the speed of immortals by about 30%!

The halberd and immortal sword in his hands are also powerful weapons of attack, especially effective against demons!

It is worth mentioning that Song Changming once compared that immortal blade with his God-Devouring Blade.

Upon closer inspection, the two blades are found to be of similar power. The Immortal Blade is specifically designed to attack demons, while the God-Devouring Blade has the wondrous ability to devour gods. In terms of quality, the two blades are perhaps comparable.

Therefore, this God-Devouring Blade, which has been upgraded multiple times, can now be considered a magical artifact-level divine weapon to some extent.

The only thing it lacks is the absence of celestial energy; if you insist on calling it a magical artifact, other immortals might not recognize it.

Of course, Song Changming had no intention of selling his sword for elixirs.

This only made him realize that so-called magical treasures of immortals are not necessarily stronger than weapons of the mortal world.

His armor and helmet disintegrated on their own and fell back onto the clothes rack. Song Changming then picked up a Nourishing Immortal Pill and swallowed it directly.

Now that he has a lot more food on hand, he is no longer too stingy with himself and will just take pills to speed up his cultivation.

Besides.

Song Changming opened his personal interface and claimed the remaining cultivation reward.

boom!
The next moment, a fierce surge of immortal power, like a raging sea, swept over his entire body.

At the same time, it also caused the immortal energy within dozens of miles around the barracks to be stirred up, rapidly gathering and continuously surging towards him.

This unexpected turn of events also alarmed the other heavenly soldiers residing there.

"what's the situation?"

Some of the heavenly soldiers who were also staying in the barracks felt that the immortal energy had become much thinner, and they had to interrupt their cultivation to investigate the reason.

Normally, the immortal energy of a sacred mountain is inexhaustible.

Even if countless immortals and gods cultivate here, it will not dilute the immortal energy of the Celestial Court.

The immortals swept their divine senses and quickly discovered that the immortal energy within a radius of dozens of miles had been gathered in one place, or more accurately, gathered in one barracks.

"Whose residence is that, that it has such the ability to draw in celestial energy?" A heavenly soldier frowned, pondering the owner of the barracks.

"I remember that barracks used to be empty, but now it's inhabited, mostly by new heavenly soldiers."

"How could a new recruit have such abilities?"

"Hmph, how domineering! He's monopolized all the immortal energy!" Some heavenly soldiers were also dissatisfied with Song Changming's behavior and tried to reclaim the shared immortal energy.

However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't bring back any of the ethereal aura that had drifted away.

Fortunately, the depletion of immortal energy only lasted for a short while before returning to normal, thus preventing a greater disturbance.

Inside the barracks, Song Changming was unaware that the immortal energy outside had undergone such a significant change because of his receiving this cultivation reward.

His entire focus was on the surge in his immortal cultivation, and he tried his best to stabilize the rapidly increasing immortal power.

The nine-patterned martial pill within his body shone brightly, and immortal power gathered more and more, like a hazy nebula band surrounding the martial pill.

His cultivation level was already very close to the late stage of the Immortal Realm, and with this wave of cultivation rewards, he broke through to the late stage without any suspense.

The small obstacle couldn't stop him in the slightest.

After that, his cultivation in the immortal path did not stop there. He made rapid progress and was close to the perfection of the immortal realm. It seemed that his physical body was about to undergo a complete transformation and be forged into the body of a true immortal.

As a result, the reward came to an abrupt end.

Although it was a bit of a pity that he couldn't raise his immortal realm to perfection in one fell swoop, Song Changming was still quite satisfied overall.

In comparison, this reward is probably much more effective than the unripe immortal fruit he ate back then, which is already extremely rare and worth all the lifespan he has expended.

It's entirely about exchanging future lifespan for today's cultivation level and strength.

Fortunately, his lifespan could continue to increase, unlike others whose lifespan was predetermined, so he wasn't really reluctant to give it up.

"Approaching the perfection of the Immortal Realm?" Song Changming pondered as he consolidated his surging immortal power while estimating how much his strength had increased.

Crossing a small immortal realm may seem like a small amount, but in reality, it almost doubles one's immortal power.

Such a level of immortality and power would make one stand out as an exceptional first-class individual among the celestial soldiers.

Not to mention, the pill inside Song Changming's body is a martial pill, which is not comparable to pure immortal power.

The eight thousand dragon powers it contains also possess the immense power to destroy the heavens and earth and make even ghosts and gods weep. The combination of the two is Song Changming's greatest trump card.

If he were to unleash his full power, every move he made would possess both supreme and unparalleled immortal energy, as well as a domineering and boundless, terrifying force as heavy as the collapse of the sky.

With combat techniques at his disposal, his strength is now several levels higher than when he ascended to heaven a year ago.

hum!
Suddenly, a surge of energy spread densely at the foot of the immortal mountain, interrupting Song Changming's thoughts.

I casually opened the window and looked out.

In the darkness of the universe beyond the heavens, countless streaks of light streaked past, as if transforming into a grand meteor shower.

"What happened?" Song Changming was slightly startled and somewhat surprised.

This was the first time he had seen such a situation in the year he had been in space.

The massive streams of light that sped out from the immortal mountain were not actually a meteor shower, but rather the transformations of celestial soldiers.

The number is so large, it could be tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands!
Furthermore, they were commanded by celestial officials and generals, as well as many great immortals and supreme gods who followed them on celestial clouds. Around them, all sorts of strange phenomena appeared in accordance with their immortal and divine realms, making them very conspicuous.

Some sit on lotus flowers, with thousands of lotus blossoms in full bloom.

Some transformed into gigantic shadows, their divine light illuminating ten thousand feet.

Furthermore, they wield celestial treasures to measure the dark galaxy.

Such a spectacle was something that even those celestial officials who had been in heaven for hundreds of years had never witnessed, let alone Song Changming, a mere celestial soldier who had only been in heaven for a year.

"Is war about to break out?" Song Changming had a vague idea.

The Celestial Court has no concept of military exercises. Unless there is a major war, it would never mobilize so much, involving both immortals and gods!
And this must be the order from the Immortal King, the ruler of the Immortal Court, atop that Immortal Mountain!
It's unclear which celestial army has set out, or which place has been thrown into turmoil, requiring such a large-scale pacification effort.

A few days later.

In a pavilion along a long corridor in the military camp, where the Milky Way flows, someone was hosting a banquet. A dozen or so heavenly soldiers gathered, and naturally, they talked about this matter.

"It is our Northern Immortal Army that has made a move!" Pei Hu said directly, his golden tiger eyes wide open, clearing up the confusion for the others.

He spoke with such certainty, it didn't seem like he was joking. The others exchanged glances, feeling that this matter must be true.
