weakness, I guess I'll just have to take the hits passively.Right now, within his line of sight, there were many things existing. It was impossible to be certain which one was possessed by a demon.In...The Thirteen Protectors' martial arts training, known as the Thirteen Layers of Training, was rigorous. Many official demon hunters strived to master this art form to its fullest potential.

"I still have quite a gap compared to formal demon slayers."

Although he made breakthroughs, Shen Changqing didn't dare to be arrogant or complacent.

The Six Layers Thirteen Protectors practiced diligently, only to show off in front of the apprentice demon slayers. To compare themselves with official demon slayers, they simply didn't have the qualifications.

Calm your mind.

His eyes fell again upon the blood and flesh within the cell.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

After confirming that the other party could no longer provide him with kill points, Shen Changqing went to the next cell.

The next cell.

Inside, imprisoned as well, are the withered remains of demons.

But unlike the arms and flesh before it, this cell held only an eye.

A jade-green eye.

The moment Shen Changqing saw the eyes, he was instantly plunged into an illusion.

There was a fearsome demon, charging towards him, and endless terror surged from the depths of his heart, driving his body to flee.

But the moment his foot left the ground, Shen Changqing suddenly reacted.

"I am in the Demon Suppression Prison!"

"In the Demon Sealing Prison, all demons and monsters are sealed. How could there be a demon attacking now"

Besides, if it were really demons attacking, with my current strength, even if I tried to run, I wouldn't be able to escape. It's all an illusion!

Shen Changqing comforted himself in his heart, his body stood still on the spot, watching the demons rush towards him.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Because it's very close.

He could even see every scale on the demon's body, and that thick, nauseating stench of blood.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The scene is too realistic.

This once again filled Shen Changqing's heart, which had been struggling to remain calm, with immense fear.

Just—

No matter how fearful he was in his heart, he never moved his steps.

Finally.

The demon pierced through his heart, without any pain.

The next second.

The illusion disappeared.

Shen Changqing broke out in a cold sweat, and he no longer dared to look directly into the demon's eyes within the cell. Instead, he calmed his mind and took a look at his own panel.

As expected.

The kill count on the panel, which had already been reset to zero, now stood at two.

"Only two points"

Shen Changqing's brow furrowed slightly.

The first two times it was three points, but this time there were only two. It's possible that this is related to the strength of the demons.

>

But two points of income are better than none.

His furrowed brows immediately relaxed.

He didn't dare look into the demon's eyes again, so he went straight to the next cell.

In less than an hour, Shen Changqing had walked through the third layer.

Unlike the second level, the third level held no strange creatures. It was filled with the withered remains of demons.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Moreover, compared to the number of cells on the second floor, there were fewer cells on the third floor.

...After the last cell is finished.

Then Shen Changqing just looked at the template below.

The kill value at two points has become fifteen points.

This brings us to the root of the matter.

That's because some demonic remnants only grant a small amount of killing points, or even not enough to reach one point. As a result, he spent an entire trip going through all three floors and only managed to get fifteen points.

Of course.

To be able to have fifteen points of killing value is also a considerable gain in Shen Changqing's eyes.

If the cultivation requirements of the Thirteen Protectors' martial arts hadn't changed, 15 points of killing value would be enough for him to bring this martial art to its peak, and there would still be a considerable surplus.

Standing at the entrance on the fourth floor.

Shen Changqing thought about the risks of entering the third layer, so he didn't enter easily. Instead, he started digesting his gains on the spot.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Cost some killing points!

Thirteen Taibaos have honed their cultivation to the seventh level!

Cost some kill points!

Thirteen Taibao has cultivated to the eighth level!

Consumption——

Soon, the Thirteen Taibao practiced diligently and entered the twelfth stage.

Up to this point.

Shen Changqing's physical defense had reached a terrifying level, and his passive power and speed had also increased considerably.

Looking at the still 9 o'clock killing value.

He didn't hesitate much, and directly chose to upgrade.

Boom—

The moment the thought fell, the killing value disappeared instantly by three points. Immediately after, a tremendously powerful force surged from the body, quickly sweeping through it.

Blood is boiling!

Bones are creaking!

Flesh trembles!

At that moment, Shen Changqing felt as if his entire body had undergone a transformation that could be described as nothing short of a rebirth.

Unlike previous improvements that caused sharp pain.

This upgrade was not painful at all; instead, it was quite comfortable.

Time flies.

Just as the movement of the physical body gradually subsided, a warm breath was born from the dantian. It was as fine as a hair, quickly flowing through every limb and bone.

In the blink of an eye.

The warm breath returned to the dantian, and there was no movement again.

It's over!

Shen Changqing woke up from his state of breakthrough.

First time.

He's the one who opened the panel to look.

Name: Shen ChangqingFaction: Great Qin Demon Suppression DivisionIdentity: Apprentice ExorcistMartial Arts: Thirteen Taibao Horizontal Training (13th Layer, can be improved)

Killings: 6

"Huh"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing looked at the martial arts column on the panel, and his heart was shocked.

>

The Thirteen Taipao practiced diligently, the highest level being thirteen layers. There has never been mention of a fourteenth layer.

But the panel shows "upgradable" text.

Yet, it clearly told him that the Thirteen Taibao's practice of martial arts still had room for improvement.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Could it be—

"Do the thirteen Taibaos' martial arts training really have subsequent levels"

Here is the translation of your content:> Please note that I have only translated the text within the > tags. The HTML tags themselves remain unchanged.

Shen Changqing was uncertain.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But seeing the option to upgrade, he still chose to upgrade.

Suddenly.

Killing value consumed 3 points, Thirteen Taibao's horizontal training broke through from the thirteenth layer to the fourteenth layer.

Enhancement complete.

Remaining killing points are three. There is still an option to improve martial arts skills.

Driven by the desire to constantly improve himself, Shen Changqing did not hesitate for long and once again chose to enhance himself.

His physical body trembled.

The kill count instantly reset.

Now.

When looking at the panel again, the thirteen guardians' cultivation level had reached the fifteenth layer. The "can be upgraded" text behind it has changed to "cannot be upgraded".

"Fifteen layers, thirteen guardians practice kung fu!"

Shen Changqing stood still, closing his eyes to feel the changes within himself.

According to the secret manual, when the Thirteen Protectors reach the thirteenth level of cultivation, their physical bodies will achieve a state of perfection.

The body is complete!

Please note that the original content was just an empty paragraph tag.

True qi arises naturally!

As a martial art that tempers the physique and lays the foundation, when it truly reaches its peak, the physical body will give birth to a faint true qi.

Once true qi is born.

When this happens, it proves that a person has crossed the threshold of the Body Tempering Realm and reached a higher level, the Pulse Connecting Realm.

As the internal warmth in his dantian grew stronger, when Shi San Tai Bao's cultivation reached the fifteenth level of Heng Lian Gong, it had increased from the original size of a hair to about twice its size.

“This must be the true qi that was born after the Thirteen Taibao's martial arts training reached its peak!”

Chen Changqing came to his senses, a smile on his face.

Qi!

The bizarre creatures are classified into ranks, and the warriors of the Demon Suppression Division are also classified into ranks.

Some initial apprentice demon slayers were unable to enter the Tempering Body Realm, while others lingered within it.

The official demon exterminator.

Basically, the strength is at the level of Tongmai Realm and above.

In other words.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

After True Qi was born, he was already no weaker than a formal Exorcist in terms of his realm.

> As early as a day ago.

Shen Changqing was still just someone who hadn't been able to cross the threshold into the Body Tempering Realm. Now, he had perfected his cultivation of the Thirteen Protectors' exercises and directly entered the Pulse Opening Realm, becoming equal to a formal Demon Exorcist.

Thus, it undergoes such a transformation.

To say I'm unhappy is completely false.

But he could understand too.

Stepping into the Tongmai realm is just a new beginning. Compared to the strong individuals in the Demon Suppression Division, the Tongmai realm isn't anything special.

Although I'm just at the beginning of the Vein Opening Realm, I've already left all the other demon hunters from my batch far behind.

"To achieve this level in just one day, it's bound to raise suspicion. We can't reveal too much."

Shen Changqing's smile subsided.

Within a year, progressing through the meridians is normal talent.

To achieve this in half a year, that's genius.

Two or three months, that's all it takes to be a genius.

If it's a month, then it's a demon.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But if it's just one day——

Shen Changqing shook his head, that was no longer a word like "talented" could describe.

Before he grew to the point where he wasn't afraid of anyone, he didn't want to become a target too quickly.

"But I don't need to hide it too much. Find an excuse, go into seclusion for a month or two, and then act like I've broken through the meridians."

“Concealing one's abilities too much will actually hinder my development in the Demon Suppression Division!”

It shouldn't be too shocking, that could lead to death, but there's no need to hide your talents too much, just explain it well and it'll be fine.

Shen Changqing believes.

If one's talents were revealed, there would be some privileges within the Demon Suppression Division.

Here is the translation:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

After all, any extraordinary person is unlikely to be treated equally.

This is what the

tag looks like.

As long as he doesn't act on his own.

No one should be able to tell that one has already mastered the Thirteen Taibao's Circular Practice.

After realizing he had cultivated true energy.

Shen Changqing was almost certain that the Thirteen Protectors' martial arts training had indeed only thirteen levels. He could raise his own to fifteen levels, probably due to the advantage of killing points.

I looked at the emptied kill points and then at the entrance to the fourth layer.

Finally.

He still walked on.

The killing value of the third layer has been completely harvested. If you want to obtain new killing value, you can only go to the fourth layer.

By the time we reach the fourth layer.

Suddenly, an intensely terrifying cold surged forth.

At that moment.

Even the powerful blood qi of Shen Changqing was instantly frozen in the face of the cold. Fortunately, true qi surged from his dantian, barely dispelling the chill.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Whew, what powerful cold!"

Shen Changqing took a deep, cold breath.

Even as he was about to step into the fourth layer, he had already made an estimate of what it would be like.

Now it seems I still underestimated myself.

If the Thirteen Protectors had not diligently trained to reach the fifteenth level, they would have died instantly upon entering the fourth level.

Even now, able to resist the cold with true energy, I am not afraid of it for the time being.

Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

But Shen Changqing felt.

He won't be able to hold on for much longer.
