Maoshan World: The young marshal starts!

Chapter 334 Through the Passing Years, Ascending to the Heavens [The Finale]

Guang Shaoqing was completely shocked. He never expected that killing Empress Dowager Cixi would give him so many merit points.

Guan Shaoqing originally thought that after killing Empress Dowager Cixi, he would definitely get a few thousand merit points, maybe even a few thousand, but it shouldn't exceed ten thousand.

To his utter surprise, killing Empress Dowager Cixi directly granted him a staggering 42000 merit points.

This is somewhat illogical, because according to the usual pattern of obtaining merit points, even a zombie of the level of Drought Demon should only bring him a few thousand merit points after killing it. However, Empress Dowager Cixi directly gave him more than 100,000 merit points.

But soon.

Guan Shaoqing also understood. Under normal circumstances, in terms of strength alone, even if the drought demon were killed, it would only bring Guan Shaoqing a few thousand merit points.

However, when judging the merit points that the Book of Creation can obtain after killing a demon or evil spirit, in addition to the demon or evil spirit's cultivation level and strength, the sins committed by the demon or evil spirit are also one of the main criteria.

As for her sins, there's no need to elaborate. It's no exaggeration to say that her sins were heinous. Just take this drought demon incident, for example. It caused the entire Guanzhong Plain to become scorched and barren, killing countless people, at least a million. The depth of her sins is simply beyond measure.

Compared to the sins committed by Empress Dowager Cixi, the evil spirits and demons that Guan Shaoqing had killed in the past were nothing compared to the sins committed by Empress Dowager Cixi.

Therefore, after Empress Dowager Cixi was killed, Guan Shaoqing directly gained a full 42000 merit points.

With the killing of Empress Dowager Cixi.

The outcome of this battle was now completely decided, and all the remaining zombies in the zombie lair of Cixi's tomb were killed.

As a result of this battle, Guan Shaoqing gained nearly 50,000 merit points.

"With this merit point, my martial arts cultivation can be improved again. Not only martial arts cultivation, but also cultivation of Tao can be improved along with it."

The breakthrough to the seventh level of the Martial Saint realm in the "Ming Shen Martial Canon" requires 3 merit points.

To break through to the mid-stage of the fourteenth level of the Daoist cultivation realm, the "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing," requires 2 merit points.

The two combined amount to exactly 5 merit points.

Guan Shaoqing felt that his gains this time were simply phenomenal.

It really is all thanks to that old witch, Empress Dowager Cixi.

"Fellow Daoists, now that this battle is over, Longhu Mountain will take its leave."

"We at Gezaoshan also bid farewell."

"Alright, fellow Daoists, please take care. We hope to meet again someday."

"May we meet again someday."

"Farewell."

At this time, with the end of the great battle, the Golden Core cultivators from Longhu Mountain and Gezao Mountain also left one after another.

"Senior Uncle, now that things are over, I'll head back to Xingzhou. There are still many things I need to take care of there. I'll visit you and my fellow uncles at the sect when I have more time."

After the people from Longhu Mountain and Gezao Mountain left, Guan Shaoqing also spoke.

"Alright, Shaoqing, you are now the ruler of Xingzhou, bearing the heavy responsibility of the rise and fall of a nation. Your senior uncle will not keep you any longer. However, Junior Brother Lin, you and Junior Brother Zhaixing rarely come back. Why don't you come back to Maoshan with me, Junior Brother Yimei, and Junior Brother Qumo and stay for a few more days to catch up?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Jian nodded and did not try to persuade Guan Shaoqing to stay any longer. He only tried to persuade Uncle Jiu and Zhaixing to stay.

"That's good. Master, Uncle, why don't you go back to Maoshan with Grand Master Uncle, Uncle One Eyebrow, and Uncle Exorcist Uncle and stay for a few more days? It'll be good to catch up. Anyway, things are stable in Singapore now, so even if something happens, Uncle Four Eyes and the others will still be there."

Guan Shaoqing also smiled.

"Alright, then Shaoqing, you go back first. Your Uncle Zhaixing and I will stay a few more days."

Uncle Nine and Zhaixing were also somewhat tempted upon hearing this, and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Master Uncle, you and Master Yimei, and Exorcist, please come to Singapore more often when you have free time and see the scenery."

Guan Shaoqing then looked at Shi Jian and Yi Mei, and invited them to exorcise demons.

"Okay, I'll definitely come over whenever I have time."

The three of them smiled and nodded upon hearing this.

Guan Shaoqing then bid farewell to the group and returned to Singapore alone.

Guan Shaoqing's life returned to normal. He first showed up at his home and the government building to let everyone know that he had returned. After confirming that the development of Singapore was still proceeding in an orderly manner without any problems, he continued to work hard in his cultivation.

First, he used the 50,000 merit points he gained from killing Empress Dowager Cixi and those Manchu zombies to raise his martial arts cultivation and Taoist cultivation to the late stage of Martial Saint and the mid stage of Golden Core, respectively.

Immediately afterwards, Guan Shaoqing began to fight demons all over the world.

Ancient Western gods, demons, werewolves, and vampires.
Egyptian mummies and spirits.
A ghost ship on the high seas.
These all became Guan Shaoqing's targets for exorcising demons.

As Guan Shaoqing began to fight demons around the world and continuously gain merit points, his cultivation level also steadily improved.

In the second year of the global campaign against demons, Guan Shaoqing's martial arts cultivation reached the peak of Martial Saint.

In the fifth year of the global campaign against demons, Guan Shaoqing's cultivation level also broke through to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

At the same time, the Lightning Thunder Fist also broke through to the tenth-grade Great Perfection realm.

Guan Shaoqing successfully condensed the Thunder Dao Fruit and gained control of the Thunder Dao Power.

In the tenth year of the global campaign against demons, Guan Shaoqing also upgraded the Purifying Heaven and Earth Divine Mantra to the tenth grade of the Great Perfection realm, condensing the Purification Dao Fruit and wielding the power of the Purification Dao.

After the Purifying Heaven and Earth Divine Mantra was also upgraded and broken through to the tenth grade of the Great Perfection realm, the Purification Dao Fruit was condensed.

Guan Shaoqing also began to work towards the Martial God realm.

However, when Guan Shaoqing was trying to break through to the Martial God realm, he was attacked by several lurking ancient gods. In the previous ten years, Guan Shaoqing had pacified the world and even killed several lurking ancient gods. So the remaining ancient gods also felt threatened and wanted to kill Guan Shaoqing when he broke through to the Tribulation.

Unfortunately, the idea was beautiful, but reality was cruel.

With both the Lightning Thunder Fist and the Purifying Heaven and Earth Mantra breaking through to the tenth-grade Great Perfection realm.

Guan Shaoqing's actual combat strength had long surpassed his cultivation level. In the final battle, Guan Shaoqing not only successfully passed the Heavenly Tribulation and stepped into the Martial God realm, but even the ancient gods he attacked and killed became the dead souls under Guan Shaoqing's sword. The other ancient gods were so frightened by this that they dared not show their faces again.

The years are long.

Twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Twenty years later.

China.

Maoshan.

"Om-!"

A terrifying aura, so powerful it shook the entire world, erupted from Maoshan.

Guan Shaoqing's figure slowly emerged from Maoshan and flew into the sky.

At this moment, Guan Shaoqing's condition was also astonishing. His whole body was radiating colorful light, and around him, flowers were falling from the sky and golden lotuses were constantly emerging from the ground. Accompanied by bursts of celestial music, it looked as if the whole world was celebrating for Guan Shaoqing.

Amidst the shocked and excited expressions of everyone on Maoshan Mountain below, Guan Shaoqing ascended to heaven step by step, step by step, riding on golden lotuses and bathed in celestial flowers.

The colorful rays of light covered the entire sky.

Finally, as Guan Shaoqing's figure completely disappeared from the sky, all the strange phenomena in the sky also dissipated.

On Maoshan Mountain.

Soon, a deafening roar of cheers erupted.

"Congratulations on your ascension, Senior Brother!"

"Congratulations on your ascension, Master Uncle!"

"."

[The End!]
