The Great Martial Saint!

Chapter 223 Assassination
Looking at Weishui County, the Xuanguang Initial Stage is considered to be a true martial arts master. It is also a symbol of the strength of first-class forces.

The weaker first-class forces would have three or four Xuan Guang initial realm masters to suppress the luck, while the stronger first-class forces would have five, six, seven or eight masters in charge. Some first-class forces even gave birth to martial arts masters of Xuan Guang middle realm.

Above the first-rate forces, there are the so-called top forces, namely the four great families in Weishui County.

Of course, the top forces here are measured in terms of the area of ​​a county.

In addition to the four major families, there is actually a huge top force in Weishui County, that is, the Weishui Pacification Office.

However, although the Weishui Zhenfu Division was powerful, its internal structure was riddled with holes due to the erosion of the aristocratic families. Many key positions in the Zhenfu Division system were held by people from aristocratic families.

If the Weishui Pacification Office really wants to make enemies with the aristocratic families and erode their interests in Weishui County, it will probably suffer an internal backlash first.

Therefore, although the Weishui Pacification Office is large, it cannot be compared on the same level as the four major families.

To put it simply, the four great families of Weishui are half the owners of the Weishui Pacification Office.

Even if the order was issued by the Canglongzhou Pacification Office, in order to effectively control the Weishui Pacification Office, the consent of the four major families was required.

This is also the reason why, although the local strength is obviously not weak, the Daqian Dynasty is no longer prosperous and is on the verge of collapse.

The local authorities are too powerful to control and it is difficult for the central government to command and dispatch!
This is part of the manifestation of the decline of the Daqian Dynasty.

The Long'an Trade Route involves the core interests of the four great families and the Weishui Town Pacification Division. The forces invested in it are naturally extremely huge. In fact, not only the four great families, but also the first-class forces in Weishui County City have basically participated in the development of the Long'an Trade Route.

In Weishui County City alone, there are countless Xuanguan Realm masters deployed within the Long'an Trade Route.

The forces involved in opening up the Long'an Trade Route were not just the Weishui County City. In addition to the Weishui County City, there were other forces involved, such as the Lin family of Dihuo County City, the Xiao family of Liyang County City, the Shadowless Blade Sect of Canglong Prefecture, and so on. In addition, among the forces involved in opening up the Long'an Trade Route, there was also the shadow of the Canglong Prefecture Pacification Office.

The Long'an trade route was a hodgepodge of good and bad people, and extremely chaotic. The interests of all parties were intertwined, the forces were intertwined, and the situation was really complicated and a mess.

Now it is just a patrol of the trade routes, and with Chen Ping'an's current martial arts strength of the middle level of Xuan Guang, it is more than enough to protect himself.

But if he accidentally gets involved in the core interests of the trade route, then his martial arts realm of the middle realm of Xuan Guang would be insufficient!
"It's still not strong enough. I need to continue practicing hard!"

Chen Pingan sat cross-legged on the bed and sighed.

He raised his eyes slightly and saw the golden finger panel floating in the void.

Realm: Mysterious Light - Shining like day at night

Martial Arts: Iron Shirt perfected, Locust Stone perfected, Thirteen Swords of the Public Sect perfected, Thirteen Taibao Horizontal Training perfected, Golden Bell Cover perfected, Swift Wind Sword Technique perfected, Eight Steps to Chase the Cicada perfected, Flying Star Sword Technique perfected, Great Vajra Palm great mastery (341/400), Vajra Indestructible Magic Skill minor mastery (9/640)

After these days of practice, he has already practiced the Flying Star Sword Technique to perfection. As the top-notch superior technique, Chen Pingan has practiced the Flying Star Sword Technique to perfection. With the help of the power of the Gold Finger Panel, he has naturally generated a lot of mysterious light.

But now Chen Ping'an's martial arts realm has entered the middle realm of Xuan Guang, and every step forward is extremely difficult. The perfection of the Flying Star Sword Technique only pushed Chen Pingan to the stage close to the middle stage, and failed to truly enter the middle stage of Shining Night as Day.

“Looking at this progress, even if I practice the Great Vajra Palm to perfection, it will be difficult for me to enter the later stage. Not to mention breaking through and entering the high realm of Xuan Guang!”

"This is still a huge leap from great success to perfection. If it is ordinary entry to small success, and small success to great success, the effect will probably be even smaller. As expected, at Xuan Guang's level, the effect of superior exercises, even the top superior exercises, is extremely limited!"

"It seems that if I want to make rapid progress, I still have to start with divine skills!"

Now, Chen Ping'an already has an indestructible magic skill, but if he wants to continue to make progress, he still needs to practice other magic skills.

Divine skills are hard to come by, so from now on he will start paying attention to the news about them.

“I wonder if I can exchange a magical skill from the treasury of the Weishui Pacification Office if I have enough merits.” Chen Pingan thought.

Theoretically, this should be feasible! However, in order to truly realize it, apart from the merit itself, there are many obstacles!
Chen Ping'an is now successful in martial arts, so theoretically, even if he doesn't sleep for several nights, it won't affect his condition. However, if he can rest for one or two hours every night, it will also be beneficial to his mental state.

The practice of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art does not involve much external moves, but mainly the operation of the mind, so Chen Pingan sat cross-legged on the bed and began to move the true energy in his body to echo the seed of mysterious light between his eyebrows.

+1!

+1!

One after another, cultivation experiences kept flashing before Chen Pingan's eyes.

Just as Chen Pingan was immersed in the practice of his magical skills, his ears moved slightly and he heard a noise.

Someone is approaching!
Chen Pingan reacted immediately.

However, he remained expressionless, as if he didn't notice anything unusual.

Pong!
Along with the sound of the window breaking, a figure suddenly jumped out from outside the house. The figure was so fast that it was like an afterimage, and there was a cold light flashing in the moonlight.

"Well done!"

Chen Pingan suddenly opened his eyes and attacked with his bare hands.

King Kong Palm!

The visitor's eyes focused slightly, and he instantly recognized the origin of Chen Ping'an's martial arts.

Stab it!

Chen Ping'an's bare hands collided fiercely with the long sword, making a sharp sound of metal clashing.

"The third level of internal energy is complete!"

Chen Pingan immediately determined the combat power level of the opponent's sword.

The other person moved in mid-air and easily neutralized the force from Chen Ping'an's palm. He jumped and stood on the windowsill. He looked down at Chen Ping'an and said in a surprised voice: "The third level of internal energy is complete?"

Chen Pingan narrowed his eyes, and the light from the mysterious light seed at the center of his brows jumped, sensing the other party's martial arts realm. However, the other party seemed to be covered by a layer of aura, making him a little gloomy, and for a moment he could not sense the other party's realm.

"Breath-holding technique!" Chen Pingan's eyes fixed. The other party's martial arts realm was not as simple as what he had just shown!
Who is it?
Almost in an instant, all kinds of possibilities emerged in Chen Pingan's mind.

Keng!
The Yanling knife was unsheathed, and Chen Pingan shouted: "Get down!"

Swish!
An extremely dazzling blade light flashed, and Chen Pingan swung his sword towards the figure on the windowsill.

Swift wind sword technique, swift wind sword cut!
An extremely strong force emerged, like a whistling wind. With the flash of the sword, the brick wall collapsed like paper.

The figure of the person who came suddenly jumped up and jumped down from the third floor.

"Where to run!"

Amidst the flying gravel and dust, Chen Ping'an's eyes were as sharp as knives. He leaped forward and jumped down together.
