Chapter 79: Demon Slaying and Offering

"Thank you, Brother Zhang. It's been of great use."

Zhou Yi returned the jade slips, and the practice notes did not record Yin Shen's practice methods, but they made up for many shortcomings.

For Zhou Yi, Yin Shen's cultivation and enlightenment are more important than his skills. After all, he has no shortage of spiritual objects to increase Yin Shen.

Even if there is no visualization diagram, relying on the nourishment of fairy peach leaves, over time, the pile can be filled with Yang Shen.

"No need for mother-in-law, the commander has sent someone to invite you over."

Zhang Cheng lowered his voice and said, "I don't want to comment on Prince Chu, but I'm just telling you that if you take shortcuts to condense your Yinshen, you may not be as powerful in a fight as you have been practicing for years."

"Don't listen to a few words of deceit, and rush in to fight for life or death!"

"In this world, the leftover is king!"

Zhang Cheng's voice suddenly changed and he said: "Of course, practicing in the God Refining Realm consumes a lot of money, so don't refuse it if there are benefits."

Zhou Yi nodded and said: "I understand, it's just taking benefits and not doing any work."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Zhang Cheng raised his hands in the direction of the palace: "This is the grace of the country. We are trying to recharge our batteries. How can we live up to the emperor's grace?"

Zhou Yi turned around and left. After staying with Lao Zhang for a long time, sooner or later his face became a magic weapon for self-protection.

…

Commanding Department.

The captain on duty heard Zhou Yi's name, verified his identity, and brought him into the Demon Slaying Hall.

After the report, Zhou Yi met the King of Chu for the first time.

King Chu is present in the memory fragments of Black Demon Lord and Bibo Dragon King.

Black armor covers his whole body, and his blood-red murderous aura shoots straight into the sky. He fights fiercely without fear of death.

In reality, the King of Chu wears a black python robe, with a square face and a slightly elegant look.

The King of Chu was reviewing official documents. The Demon Slayer Division was spread across sixteen states. The number of things that needed to be decided by the commanders every day was only much more than that of the Prince Supervisor.

"Sit down first."

A quarter of an hour has passed since the King of Chu finished approving a stack of official documents and handed them to the scribes for summons to the state branches.

"Zhou Yi, thirty-two years old, from Zhoujia Village, Hengyang. Fleeed from home, passed through Guning, Yanshun... and entered the capital..."

The track of Zhou Yi's activities since his birth has been recorded accurately by the Demon Slayer Division.

Da Qian canonized the land of the city gods in various places, not only to suppress demons and protect the people, but also to connect the underworld and gods in various places to form a legal network that monitors the world.

A person's experience from birth to death is just redundant data when it is not used, and can be retrieved at any time when needed.

After Zhou Yi listened quietly, he stood up and saluted: "The kindness of cultivating the Demon Slayer Division will be unforgettable."

"Okay! With such ambition, no wonder he can persevere in the torture chamber!"

The King of Chu expressed his appreciation: "It just so happens that there is a vacancy in the Zhenzhou Demon Slaying Division. He is ranked in the third rank and enjoys the treatment of the second rank. Are you willing to go?"

Zhou Yi secretly cursed the King of Chu for being shameless. The soldiers of Zhenzhou fought against the dragon cavalry army one after another, with more defeats than victory. At this time, it was not like he was dying in vain, so he immediately refused.

"Your Majesty, I'm just a clerk here, and I've never fought with others. I'm afraid I won't be able to convince the public, and I won't be able to hold the position of governor."

"Did you know that the resources required for Yin Shen cultivation are ten times and a hundred times that of the Qi Refining Realm. For a single skill, there is a huge difference between the superior contemplation method and the inferior contemplation method."

The King of Chu seduced: "The Demon Slayer Division's monthly salary is rich in meritorious service. It can be exchanged for all the Demon Slaying Division's Kung Fu pills. Among them are Buddhist and Taoist visualization diagrams that directly point to the true immortals of the Taoist sect. In the future, you may not be able to become a Yang Shen!"

"I was born in a rural area, and it's a lucky thing that I condensed the Yin Shen. I don't dare to expect more. I'm satisfied with continuing to be a scribe in the Ministry of Things."

Zhou Yi refused again. The Ministry of Materials was close to the torture chamber and it was impossible to leave, even in this life.

It's too troublesome to catch the demons with your own hands, so you have to rely on robbing people's heads to maintain the growth of Taoxing's mana.

"In that case, just stay with Monobe."

The King of Chu did not feel impatient or unhappy. He seemed to have completed a routine question and said: "Just like Zhang Cheng, he receives the order of meritorious service from the meritorious department, and meritorious service is distributed according to grade every month. Occasionally, there are tasks assigned, and there are generous meritorious services." remuneration."

Zhou Yi asked: "Your Majesty, is the task mandatory, or is it optional?"

King Chu said: "Of course it is all voluntary."

For a third-level god-refining monk, even if Zhou Yi is a parallel importer who takes shortcuts, the Demon Slayer Division will not force him to do so.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhou Yi left the palace and asked the captain on duty about the location of the Meritorious Service.

In the Demon Slaying Hall, King Chu was silent for a moment and asked: "Can you find any abnormalities?"

"The human race is orthodox, the Tao sect is orthodox, nothing unusual."

The words come from the "Destroy Demons and Demons" plaque proclaimed in the palace. The first character "Zhuan" gradually distorts into the shape of a human face.

Bi Hua's mouth opened and closed, and his voice was quite weird: "No abnormality is the biggest abnormality! If a great scholar can establish his destiny in one day, it is because he has accumulated merits and virtues by writing books and preaching, and has cultivated the Yinshen for decades. If you copy the Taoist scriptures for three to five years, , can the Yinshen leave the body, what else can I do to train my body and Qi?”

King Chu said: "As long as it is an authentic human race, the others... don't care. Who can cultivate into a Yin God without a secret?"

The plaque asked in confusion: "When did you become so kind?"

"The bald donkeys in Buddhism are the most important ones. This person has a close relationship with the Jinguang Temple. It was Fahai who acted as a guarantee and was released from the torture chamber."

King Chu said: "The Night Guard has sent a message that Fahai has been successfully promoted to the first-grade Hui Relic. Monks from all over the world will be invited to participate in the celebration soon, and Zhou Yi must be among the invitees."

The plaque chuckled and said: "So that's it! If I remember correctly, His Majesty gave Fahai the relic of the Arhat who killed him? His promotion..."

The King of Chu did not respond. The matter was complicated and difficult for him to judge easily.

The character of this Demon Slayer Division plaque is unpredictable. It is possible that someone might report it to Emperor Jingtai behind his back. It is best to be careful in extraordinary times.

…

Zhou Yi received the order of offering.

The palm-sized jade plaque was engraved with the five words "Offering to the Demon Slayer Division".

When the divine sense scanned it, there was a special restriction inside, showing a number "zero".

A third-rank cultivator automatically receives seven points of merit every month, which can be used to exchange for spiritual objects, elixirs, exercises, instruments and other cultivation materials.

Zhou Yi strolled around the Merit Division and compared the prices outside. The value of the elixir exchanged for one point of merit was about one hundred taels.

After asking the captain of the Merit Division, it turned out that someone was indeed buying merit privately. One point of merit could be sold for one hundred and fifty taels, and the price would be higher if the quantity was large.

"This is equivalent to the monthly salary of the Demon Slayer Division... thousands of taels?"

No wonder Zhang Cheng is not short of money for a third-rank cultivator to have such treatment. He often lives in the most expensive brothel in Luojing for a long time, calling it the warmth of home.

Zhou Yi originally thought that a high-class worker with an annual salary of 10,000 taels of silver could be considered a wealthy person, but when he checked the price of the third-grade elixir for a cultivator, he found that the most common nourishing spirit elixir cost 100 merit points per elixir.

The nourishing spirit elixir can slightly speed up the nourishment of the Yin spirit, but compared with the description of its efficacy, it is far inferior to drinking a piece of fairy peach leaf as tea.

"This is too cruel!"

Zhou Yi returned to the Ministry of Things and told Zhang Cheng about this matter.

Zhang Cheng said: "If you want to sell merits, come to me. I will buy them for 200 taels at a time, no limit!"

"???"

Zhou Yi asked in confusion: "Brother Zhang, does your family have a mine?"

"Do you have a misunderstanding about the Refining God Realm? If you were in a local place, you would at least be the lord of a county, with a lifespan of hundreds of years, and you can fly into the sky and hide in the ground. The common people would regard you as an immortal god!"

"After I was promoted to the Refining God Realm, some sects and chambers of commerce in my hometown came to me, and many idle positions such as the Supreme Elders were appointed, and tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver were sent every month."

Zhang Cheng taught: "Besides, the merits of the Demon Slaying Division cannot be compared with money? In addition to the imperial court, only the top Buddhist and Taoist sects have the elixirs and spiritual objects of the Refining God Realm, and they dare not open up the supply like the imperial court..."

The two were chatting when Chen Zhubu walked in.

"I just asked the higher-ups for permission and hired another clerk to copy the bibliography."

"Sir, I'm not busy every day..."

Chen Zhubu said righteously: "Old Zhou, let the newcomer do some small things. He doesn't need to report for duty every day. He must not delay his practice."

Zhang Cheng felt uncomfortable and snorted coldly.

"Old Chen, I was in the five internal organs department before, why didn't I see you recruiting people?"

Chen Zhubu looked helpless: "How can your book of ghost paintings and talismans be included in the clan volume? You have to find a temporary worker to copy it every day..."

Zhou Yi smiled. After achieving the Yin God, he also became a special clerk in the Ministry of Things.
