I wield power with my innate talents, and forge the Heavenly Court.

Of course, even if you stay in one place, you can still complete the corresponding work.

However, if you want to obtain more crimson power and advance to a higher level...

Tian Wei still needs to walk through the town like a normal night watchman and take the corresponding actions at the next level.

That, besides being an accumulation of power, is more like a promotion ceremony.

He must complete this advancement ceremony to be promoted to Night Watchman or Night Prophet.

Correspondingly, becoming a night watchman is much simpler; one has already completed the night watch simply by walking through the town.

In comparison, becoming a prophet of the night is much more difficult.

That requires making an accurate prediction based on all the information you have gathered.

If any error occurs during the process, the advancement ceremony will be interrupted.

They can either wait for the next promotion or switch to the Night Watch.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Tian Wei struck the drum to complete his duty as a watchman.

Ye Jianxing and the others who were nearby were naturally also affected and enveloped by the crimson light.

In that instant, Ye Jianxing and the others felt their movements freeze, as if they had suddenly fallen into a quagmire.

This is?

Without a doubt, everyone looked at Tian Wei in shock, completely bewildered as to what had happened and why they had become unable to move.
Although I know it's because of bloodshed, because of Tian Wei.

However, no one knew why this was the case.

This is naturally the effect of the night watchman's voice, which slows down time and limits speed.

In fact, this is still a result of Tian Wei's own lack of strength.

Although Tian Wei's strength was enhanced after condensing and evolving his Heavenly Status, he had already broken through to the early stage of the Innate Realm.

But that's all there is to it.

Compared to supernatural powers, it is still far inferior.

Now, he is almost on par with Wang Dahu and the others who have just acquired the status of a celestial being.

He possesses supernatural powers, but when he uses them, he still relies on his initial physical strength and true qi, rather than the true essence of a true supernatural power.

The time-delay effect can only affect the material world in this area, but it cannot affect the mind or will.

Otherwise, the crowd wouldn't notice that their movements had slowed down; they would only think that Tian Wei's speed had increased.

Even after leaving the area, this effect will decrease again.

Let alone grandmasters, even masters have the possibility of breaking free.

However, if caught off guard, he could even be killed by a Grandmaster-level expert.

Of course, he had only just begun to evolve and condense his celestial status.

If we wait a while longer, until they become familiar with the power of the supernatural abilities, accumulate enough true energy, and even transform it into true essence, the situation will be reversed.

Let alone a Grandmaster, he could suppress even a peak Grandmaster with a single blow.

The supernatural powers of a Heavenly Rank are essentially beyond the realm of Grandmaster supernatural powers.

"A divine power that influences heaven and earth, the domain of a Grandmaster."

Ye Jianxing, who was at the Innate Realm, clearly knew more. After sensing the changes in the surrounding world, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"what?"

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this and looked at Tian Wei in disbelief.

Completely baffled by what had just happened, how did Tian Wei suddenly become a Grandmaster?
Realizing the impact of the spreading power on everyone, Tian Wei paused slightly, then embarrassedly withdrew his power.

The crimson light suddenly receded, and along with a large amount of crimson moonlight, it instantly disappeared into Tian Wei's body.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I just gained this supernatural power and I'm not quite in control of it yet."

Tian Wei smiled somewhat awkwardly.

However, although he appeared humble, his demeanor naturally revealed a confidence and arrogance he had never possessed before.

Although it has tried its best to hide it.

However, Ye Jianxing and the others still had a vague feeling about it.

However, no one seemed to think there was anything wrong with it.

If they could also obtain the power of a Grandmaster, they would also become more arrogant.

Grandmaster level, that's the strongest in the world today, there are only a handful in the entire world.

On the surface, only a few places, such as the present-day Ming Dynasty Imperial Palace, Wudang Shaolin Temple, and the Later Jin Dynasty in the Northeast, possessed them.

And in the Ming Dynasty imperial palace, it was naturally Wei Zhongxian, the director of the Eastern Depot.

Of course, there might be some more hidden in the shadows.

Otherwise, how could Wei Zhongxian, the head of the Eastern Depot, possibly intimidate all the heroes under heaven?

However, regardless of the circumstances, Grandmaster-level experts are extremely rare, representing the world's most elite powerhouses.

Even Wei Zhongxian, who controlled the Eastern Depot and its powerful figures, still had to treat them with respect.

Even the emperor dared not put too much pressure on a Grandmaster.

If a Grandmaster were to carry out an assassination, even an emperor would find it difficult to guarantee his own safety.

Of course, basically all the grandmasters in the world have their own power. If they were not facing the danger of their sect being wiped out, probably no one would risk the world's condemnation and be so foolish as to assassinate the emperor.
Moreover, even a Grandmaster-level expert, if faced with a large army encirclement and annihilation, can only flee in panic.

Even if they are restrained, they could still be surrounded and killed.

Therefore, the world still reveres royalty, and the military remains the primary fighting force of all nations.

Even so, Grandmasters are still a formidable force, standing at the top of the world's pyramid, and are treated with respect wherever they go.

Given that Tian Wei suddenly possesses the supernatural power of a Grandmaster, isn't it normal for him to be a little arrogant?

It is even more remarkable that he was able to apologize to everyone for his mistakes.

Even in modern society, if someone suddenly acquires tens or hundreds of millions of assets, how many people would still treat their former colleagues with a normal attitude?
Not to mention, this is an ancient world where martial arts are revered.

Having power means having authority.

And naturally, no one held a grudge against Tian Wei for his apology.

"Not at all, Brother Tian didn't mean it."

"That's right, how can you blame Brother Tian?"

"It's perfectly normal to feel a little out of control after suddenly gaining power."

Normally, they would have made Tian Wei treat them to a meal.

However, at this moment, everyone laughed and said that they didn't care.

Finally, everyone started asking Tian Wei what had just happened.

"Brother Tian, ​​what just happened? How did you suddenly..."

"Oh, you mean the matter of me gaining supernatural powers?"

"Ah~? Hahaha, yes, yes!"
Of course, if it's inconvenient for you, Brother Tian, ​​then there's no need to say anything.

"Hehe, it's nothing?"
Speaking of which, I should thank Lord Xiaoqi.

Seeing the crowd looking at him, Ye Jianxing's expression shifted slightly, and he quickly smiled and waved his hand.

"Hehe, Brother Tian, ​​what are you saying? Brother Tian's acquisition of supernatural powers is due to your own good fortune. How could I dare to take credit for it?"

"No, I gained supernatural powers because of the drum in my hand, and by imitating the night watchman's drumming," Tian Wei shook his head dismissively, then raised the drum in his hand and explained under the watchful eyes of everyone.

After hearing the whole story, everyone finally understood.

This matter actually has something to do with Ye Jianxing.

At the same time, everyone looked at Tian Wei with a fiery gaze.

And there was a hint of gratitude in his voice.

I am grateful for his information, and also grateful for his mercy in sparing my life.

There are far too many cases in the martial arts world where brothers turn against each other because of treasures.

With Grandmaster Tian Wei's strength, if he wanted to silence them, killing them would be an easy thing.
Even if the imperial court discovers it by then, it will probably just fizzle out when faced with a Grandmaster-level expert.
After listening to Tian Wei's explanation, Ye Jianxing said thoughtfully:

"If that's the case, does that mean that if we acquire the corresponding items and imitate the corresponding professions, we can also condense that celestial status and evolve the corresponding supernatural powers?"

"Yes, that's exactly right!"

Tian Wei nodded.

In fact, Tian Wei may have had his share of greed.

However, he knew that the evolution and condensation of the celestial status was due to the blood-red moonlight.

But he couldn't take it with him.

So no matter how much he does, this secret will eventually be exposed.

At that time, with the power of the imperial court, it would not be impossible for them to assemble an army of grandmasters.

If he were to truly oppose the imperial court, he would be courting death.

After hearing that as long as one obtains items from the town and imitates the corresponding profession, one can develop and condense a celestial status and develop supernatural powers.

Everyone was immediately overjoyed, wishing they could select their favorite items right now and then evolve and condense the corresponding celestial status.

Seeing the excited crowd, Ye Jianxing naturally wouldn't stop them.

Moreover, he was also extremely excited and somewhat impatient.

Therefore, he immediately smiled and said:
"Alright, everyone, go and choose the items you like now."

Yes, there are still some things to be careful about. For example, don't choose things you're not capable of doing, lest you lose your life in the end.

"Yes!"

Everyone felt a chill and nodded emphatically in unison.

If Ye Jianxing hadn't reminded them, some of them would have actually been prepared to choose the professions they had wanted to become but couldn't achieve.

For example, scholars and literati
However, they weren't cut out for it before, and they probably still won't be able to do it now.

Watching everyone leave, Ye Jianxing's eyes flashed, and he turned and headed towards the center of the town.

That is where the town mayor resides.

Ye Jianxing has a clear plan for the path he will take next.

That means rising through the ranks until becoming the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Therefore, the ability to command and govern is essential.

In this small town, the only person he could think of was the mayor.

If he could find the things that the mayor manages in the town, such as the official seal and documents, could he become the mayor?

As for how to perform duties and hold ceremonies
He may not be able to manage the other townspeople perfectly, but he is more than capable of managing his own Jinyiwei (Imperial Guards).

But nowadays, the town is deserted except for the Imperial Guards.

And the final result was exactly as he expected.

After obtaining the town mayor's seal and directing his Imperial Guards to accomplish certain tasks, he quickly absorbed enough crimson moonlight to evolve and solidify his position as town mayor.

In addition, he was surprised to find that not only did his strength increase to the early stage of the Grandmaster realm, but he also simultaneously condensed the rank of a Junior Flag Officer of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

This suddenly awakened him; he realized that they could condense multiple personas, and even evolve and condense celestial personas corresponding to external positions.

Upon discovering this, Ye Jianxing immediately summoned everyone and rearranged their next actions.

Finally, at dawn, everyone was able to evolve and solidify their status as imperial guards, and their strength was once again enhanced.

As dawn broke in the east, Ye Jianxing and the others were astonished to find that the once empty town had suddenly become bustling with activity.

A bustling crowd had filled the streets, and smoke was rising from every household's chimney.

The group returned to the inn, where the innkeeper immediately got up to greet them.

"Hey gentlemen, did you go out so early this morning?"

The group exchanged glances for a moment, and finally just nodded faintly.

Everything was normal until noon.

It was just like any other ordinary small town.

Time flies, and soon it was noon as Ye Jianxing and the others waited anxiously.

Suddenly, the sky brightened dramatically, and a new sun appeared beside the normal sun, radiating dazzling light.

The next instant, the new sun exploded with a deafening roar, turning into countless fireballs that scattered and fell in all directions.

One of the largest fireballs then hurtled straight toward the town.

Upon witnessing this scene, the townspeople immediately fell into panic.

Ye Jianxing and the others, however, showed expressions of understanding.

Sure enough, this was a cycle of time; they had returned from June to May 29th.

However, after realizing the situation, Ye Jianxing's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately shouted to the crowd.

"Oh no! We need to get out of here right now!"

"Hmm~?"

After hearing Ye Jianxing's shout, the others looked at him in confusion at first, and then they all realized what was happening.

The fragments of the sun in the sky fell towards the town.

If they're still in the town, wouldn't that be suicidal?

After figuring it out, everyone immediately circulated their true energy and mobilized their supernatural powers, desperately fleeing towards the edge of the town.

However, how could the speed of the crowd keep up with the setting sun?
"Boom~!"

"Rumble"

Just as the group approached the edge of the town, the fireball formed from a fragment of the sun crashed to the ground with a long trail of flame.

In an instant, blinding light illuminated the heavens and the earth, and all the buildings, people, livestock and everything else in the town were destroyed by the terrifying wave of fire, instantly burned to ashes.

The Imperial Guards who arrived at the edge of the town were in no better shape; they were instantly thrown away.

Before it even hit the ground, it was engulfed by the terrifying flames and completely reduced to ashes.

Only Ye Jianxing, who had reached the Grandmaster level and whose internal energy had already undergone a subtle transformation, managed to escape this calamity by relying on his stronger supernatural powers and the support of the crowd he received as the town mayor and a junior officer of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Even so, Ye Jianxing was thrown far away and landed awkwardly on the ground.

Countless bones in his body were broken, and his internal energy was completely depleted. He could only lie helplessly on the ground, staring blankly in the direction of the town.

At this moment, the town was engulfed in flames, with a huge crater hundreds of meters deep at its center, where fiery red lava was churning.

Above the magma was a fist-sized sphere of light, radiating a blinding brilliance like the sun. (End of Chapter)
