Chapter 3 - Chapter 3 Demon-Subduing Zhengyang Sword

Shen Yi always felt that this demon-subduing sword technique was unusual.

My predecessor mastered the bone-penetrating grappling technique in just three to five years, and when practicing this sword technique, he had to concentrate fully, and it took him eight years to achieve even a small degree of success.

It took a full thirty-three years to reach perfection and comprehend a glimmer of inspiration.

If one could fully capture this spiritual light, its effect would definitely not be comparable to that of ordinary martial arts.

His mind moved slightly, and all of the ten years of the demon's lifespan was poured into the Demon Subduing Sword Technique.

[You continue to hone your already perfected Demon-Subduing Sword Skill. Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the aura has become clearer and clearer. Unfortunately, your aptitude is mediocre, and you really can't figure it out.]

"…"

"Is that all?"

Shen Yi felt depressed. This was a full ten years! Ten years in which she could give up all distractions for the sake of her goal!

Even if you just screw around and give up all entertainment, you can still buy a house in a small county town in ten years.

When thrown into the martial arts world, not even a splash can be made.

Having invested so much, it is impossible to give up, so Shen Yi simply continues to pour in.

[In the seventeenth year, you finally caught the inspiration and began to try to record it in the book]

[In the twenty-seventh year, you used all your energy to perfect it and named it "The Demon-Subduing Zhengyang Blade"]

[Remaining demon lifespan: 36 years]

"Self-created martial arts?"

Suddenly, a new insight into martial arts and swordsmanship appeared in Shen Yi's mind.

After absorbing it completely, he found that it was not what he imagined.

On the panel, there was an extra line of text behind the Demon-Subduing Sword Technique.

[First level. Demon-killing Zhengyang Sword]

This is not a completely new martial art, but something like a derivative stunt, so there is no level of proficiency.

After a total of sixty years of polishing, he discovered in despair that human power is limited.

With a mortal body, no matter how proficient your swordsmanship is, or how much you train your body day and night, you are still unable to fight against those real big monsters.

Therefore, an idea was proposed to mobilize the essence and blood in the body, refine the essence into Qi, and then control the Qi with the long sword in hand.

"Initial stage?"

Shen Yi looked at the prefix.

The last time I saw this word was on the prompt for killing the dog demon.

The intelligent dog demon has not yet entered the initial realm.

In other words, this style of Zhengyang Sword has already reached a certain realm.

"If we continue to deduce the Demon-Subduing Sword Technique, is it possible to directly create a complete elementary martial art, rather than just a simple sword technique?"

Shen Yi turned off the panel, excitement flashing in his eyes.

But soon, he rationally suppressed the idea of ​​pouring all his remaining life into it.

It is obvious that creating one's own martial arts is a matter of twice the effort and half the result. With the same demon's lifespan, investing in ready-made martial arts will definitely produce better results.

I remembered that the captain of the Demon Suppression Division passed down more than one kind of martial arts last time. Since I have a small status in the government, it is not difficult for me to obtain them.

"Let's take a rest first."

After experiencing so many changes suddenly, Shen Yi was suddenly enveloped by a strong sense of fatigue as he relaxed his mind.

He just made a move to lie down.

The father and daughter of the Liu family brought the hot water that they had prepared in advance. The little girl soaked Shen Yi's feet in the hot water and began to knead them carefully with her rough little hands.

Shen Yi closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.

It was the first time for him to experience the feeling of being served by someone else.

Judging from the timid looks of the two men, it would definitely not be a problem for him to become an evil landlord in this house from today on.

But Shen Yi opened his eyes and just said thank you softly: "It's almost done, go out, I'll rest for a night and then leave."

No other emotions were revealed.

After all, the evil deeds of his previous life were there, and even if he behaved gently, it would only cause unnecessary fear to the father and daughter.

After hearing this, Old Man Liu was stunned, and a look of half belief and half doubt appeared in his cloudy old eyes.

But he soon reacted, pulled his daughter, and nodded repeatedly: "Master Shen, you are welcome, you can stay as long as you want, I will take care of you if you need anything."

The two men stumbled away carrying the basin of water and went into another room.

Liu Yatou leaned against the window, unable to sleep the whole night. When she closed her eyes, she saw Mr. Shen's grinning face, and when she opened her eyes, she saw the corpse of the dog demon in the yard with its eyes open.

She waited until the cockcrowed in the early morning, and when she was half asleep, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure outside.

The young man was wearing a black official uniform, with a slender back and a sword slung around his waist, looking very heroic.

He quietly left the courtyard, and when he left, he propped up the broken door that the dog demon had torn down, barely blocking out the cold wind. "Dad, Master Shen is gone."

"Huh... gone? Good riddance... huh..."

The morning dew was moist and a light mist lingered on the streets.

Shen Yi walked out of the fog and stood in front of the two stone lions.

Baiyun County Government Office.

He entered through the side door with ease and walked into the classroom.

There are seven or eight teams in the Baiyun County Criminal Division, and Shen Yi is just a small leader among them. He has eight officers under him, and his immediate superior is Song Changfeng, the head of the Criminal Division.

Sit down in your own seat.

Shen Yi casually flipped through the notebook on the table and found that he couldn't understand it at all.

This not only shows that he has no cultural background, but also indirectly proves that his predecessor was not interested in official duties.

The Daqian Dynasty had been plagued by demonic attacks for many years, and although the Demon Suppression Division had been established, it had always been severely understaffed.

Usually, the local government offices are the main force in combating demonic activities. The Demon Suppression Division will only take over the local area and conduct a demon sweep after the situation is completely out of control.

The result was that the entire government lost its hat and completely lost control of the local area.

It is under this premise that the smart predecessor has the opportunity to take advantage.

Through his ability to negotiate with demons, not only did he make Baiyun County appear calm on the surface and gain the trust of his superiors, but he also saved his subordinates from having to actually fight the demons, reducing many casualties and earning him great prestige.

He did his job well, and over the years, he showed signs of succeeding Song Changfeng.

Of course, not everyone is convinced.

Shen Yi's eyes swept across the empty classroom and the wine jars scattered on the ground under the table. He picked up one at random and fell silent.

At this moment, a thin young man rushed in.

When he saw Shen Yi sitting on the chair, contempt flashed across his eyes at first, but he quickly adjusted his mood, took off his bamboo hat, and revealed a handsome face: "I am here to see Lord Shen."

The man was called Chen Ji. He had the least experience in the class, but he had a great reputation.

The reason for this was his exaggerated talent in martial arts, which even won praise from the captain of the Demon Suppression Division.

Unfortunately, he was young and hot-tempered, and suffered a lot at the hands of the monsters. He was severely criticized by his superiors and thrown to Shen Yi for training.

The other party's parents died early, and he brought his sister to make a living in Baiyun County.

It just so happens that his previous incarnation was a sex-hungry ghost.

The two of them fought openly and secretly, and in the end he obeyed orders obediently, and Shen Yi promised not to touch his sister, and the situation was barely settled.

Hiss, why do I feel like I'm about to die?

Shen Yi was resting his chin on his hand, daydreaming, but Chen Ji broke the situation.

"Sir Shen, I just came back from Liuli Temple. Something happened in the village."

Chen Ji recalled his superior's previous order, and a conflicted look appeared in his eyes, but he quickly explained: "Although you said that you would not take care of the things outside the city for the time being, this time the monster did not follow the rules and actually stayed in the village."

He spoke faster and faster, and seemed particularly worried about being interrupted by Shen Yi. It seemed that he had experienced similar situations many times before.

"I hope... Lord Shen can go... to negotiate..."

When he said the word "negotiation", a trace of shame flashed across Chen Ji's face. Even so, he tried his best to maintain respect in his tone so as not to offend the other party.

After all, according to Shen Yi's character, he usually deals with such situations perfunctorily and never cares.

If you want the other party to come forward, you must make him happy.

"I remember that last time, the captain of the Demon Suppression Division brought a total of three martial arts manuscripts. I think you borrowed them?"

Shen Yi stood up and walked to the door of the classroom, stretching hard.

"ah?"

Chen Ji was stunned. Could it be that Lord Shen didn't hear what he was saying at all?

"Let me see it." Shen Yi stretched out his hand.

Chen Ji took a deep breath, walked to his desk, and pulled out three well-preserved manuscripts, with veins bulging on the back of his hand.

He stood there for a long time, and finally handed it over with great heartache.

According to the other party's habits, this precious martial art to subdue demons would either be used to pad the corner of the table, or given as a rare toy to a lover for fun. He would definitely not even look at it.

Shen Yi took the manuscript and walked out slowly.

Only Chen Ji was left standing there in a daze, his hand holding the knife tighter and tighter.

Mr. Shen didn't even ask, does that mean the lives of the people outside the city don't matter?

At this moment, half of a body suddenly leaned in from outside the door.

It was Shen Yi who had returned. He looked puzzled: "Why are you standing there like an idiot? Lead the way?"
