Chapter 282: A roundabout way
On another shallow beach.

From a distance, one can already see the sluice gate of the mountain stream, and some traces of an artificial sluice gate observation platform that is in a semi-destroyed state.

Yue Hanzhang and the other two were hunting the last group of poisonous alligator snapping turtles in an orderly manner.

Unlike Jiang Lingxiu and Huang Zhishu, who are still as agile and fast as usual.

For a long time, Yue Hanzhang just stood in a small space, occasionally taking a few steps forward to move his body position.

Most of the time, Yue Hanzhang used [Five Thunders] to attack and [Molten Flame Scales] to defend.

He even deliberately slowed down the frequency of swinging the steel cable armor-piercing whip in his hand, which was more ferocious, had a darker metallic color, but also had more turbulent lightning and thunder.

The weapon in Yue Hanzhang's hand was also recast.

The smelting of three pieces of high-energy metal ores means the strength limit of non-refined weapons.

The extremely smooth extraordinary power of thunder and fireworks surged in the Yin-Yang Thunder and Fire Mace. Not only was it much smoother and smoother than before, the integration of those high-energy metal ores that almost became extraordinary spiritual seeds had actually amplified Yue Hanzhang's thunder and fire.

Now, with this powerful weapon, a single whip would shatter the shell of an adult alligator snapping turtle, leaving a bloody groove. Even those monster-level alligator snapping turtles would have their shells cracked.

Either death or serious injury.

In this situation, if Yue Hanzhang still wanted to continue using actual combat to improve his proficiency in the control of the [Melting Flame Scale], he could only reduce the efficiency of his attack.

Now look.

The improvement brought about by such application is very effective.

Compared to the early morning, Yue Hanzhang was obviously unfamiliar with the situation and had difficulty in controlling the details.

At this moment, his thin shield extended smoothly.

There is no need to even display multiple shields. Just the traction of pure electric light can allow the suspended thin shield to move horizontally, thereby moving the extraordinary Taoism it carries to increase the efficiency of protection.

This also means that Yue Hanzhang has a more detailed grasp of the details of the flame electromagnetic blade storm.

If and when.

Yue Hanzhang could move with his thoughts. In a flash, this thin shield could rotate around him in an instant and appear at any place around him within 360 degrees, just like controlling his arms.

Perhaps his control over this new Taoist method could reach the level of [Five Thunders Strike the Top of the Head], allowing the violent power brewed by five extraordinary thunders to exist for a long time on the metal wire as thin as a hair.

Be truly meticulous and have a comprehensive grasp of the subject.

According to this standard, Yue Hanzhang is already on the right track to improve his proficiency, and has achieved an accurate improvement of at least seven or eight percent.

Considering that this is only the first day of mastering this extraordinary Taoist method, Yue Hanzhang believes that the day when he masters it perfectly will not be too long.

The reason why there is such a significant improvement.

The experience gained from actual combat is one thing.

And at this moment, in the world of form and spirit, there is a circle of seals and talismans representing this extraordinary Taoism.

The 129,600 Taoist seals were now all sparkling with the vibrant light after being refined.

This is the terrifying power of Yue Hanzhang's true accumulated strength.

At the cusp of the storm, a series of tremendous momentum gathered, especially things like the live broadcast of an operation by the evil cultivator of the Song Sheng Sect who wanted to remove the evil factor, all of which were earth-shattering events!

The noise suddenly rose louder.

Most of those attracted here, whether they are those who are concerned about the situation of the evil cultivators or those who are concerned about the results of the operation, are truly extraordinary cultivators.

Only for a short time.

In a truly rapid accumulation like a snowball, a huge amount of Dao sea light full of activated spirituality gathered in the mechanical mind.

They are constantly accumulating and growing stronger with the interaction between mechanical seals.

Until another golden seal of ordination was refined by Yue Hanzhang, and until another extraordinary loop was opened up.

A whole day.

It's like opening the floodgates.

The massive amount of accumulated activated spirituality finally began to rush madly towards the mechanical lotus platform, and then turned into a torrent of spiritual light, washing into the world of form and spirit.

Within one day, Yue Hanzhang was forced to "become enlightened again."

He was pushed directly to the peak state of the first level.

Not only were the 129,600 Taoist seals shining brightly, but he himself hardly even breathed in and out, completely benefiting from the constant flow of spiritual light.

The changes in the extraordinary core are also very obvious.

When I had just refined the golden seal and battle armor.

The core of the extraordinary authority is still in the shape of a spherical ball formed by the fragments of beast-shaped seals and contains more demonic essences.

Along with the battle armor that was refined along with the golden seal, it was also mixed in the spherical shape in the form of particleized liquid metal, carrying the seal fragments.

now.

With the frequent flood of spiritual light.

[Five Thunders Strike Back] The changes that had occurred in the core of the Taoist authority were now manifested in this authority at a faster pace.

The recombination and splicing of the animal-shaped seal fragments have allowed the core of the Taoist authority to re-present a certain human-shaped outline that is still weird, but also slightly natural.

In addition, the armor, which was originally particle-based liquid metal, seemed to have transformed into a pocket-sized armor again as it "extended" along with the core of authority.

At first glance, it looked like a human skeleton outlined by seal characters, wearing snake scale armor.

It was also like the battle armor had become a spirit, growing Taoist seals and possessing extraordinary powers.

But no matter what.

His cultivation had reached the limit of the current stage. If he did not refine the golden seal of ordination, it would be like "the gate was closed". There would be no more progress or changes, and there would be no more excessive power that would cause Yue Hanzhang's Taoism to get out of control.

The gradual transformation of the core of the extraordinary authority into a human form also meant that it became more and more in line with Yue Hanzhang's form and spirit, which invisibly enhanced Yue Hanzhang's mastery and improvement of the degree of Taoism.

It is these changes that have contributed to all the progress Yue Hanzhang has made today.

Of course, the gate was closed too early, causing a large amount of activated spirituality to continue to accumulate in the mechanical mind.

Moreover, as time goes by, the impact of the major events that have occurred one after another in recent days continues to ferment.

The speed of accumulation is even faster than the previous day, and even the previous hour.

Another "flood peak" was brewing in the mechanical mind. Yue Hanzhang could even foresee that when he refined the next golden seal, he would probably experience another day of "enlightenment".

But it was precisely this kind of cognition that made Yue Hanzhang decide that in the short term, unless necessary, he would not take the initiative to start the next level of practice.

Temporary continuous gains may be able to satisfy one's extremely greedy desire for spiritual practice.

But in the long run.

The superficiality of foundation, especially the neglect of foundation of protective Taoism and poor control, is the greatest irresponsibility to one's own life.

He decided to wait until he had mastered the subtleties and achieved perfection before starting the next level of practice.

While being extremely greedy, what has supported Yue Hanzhang to where he is today is also extreme restraint.

As for those streams of Dao Sea light that are constantly accumulating madly and are full of activated spirituality.

Since it is such a rich harvest.

Yue Hanzhang simply decided to be extravagant and used such precious top computing power to start a multi-threaded symphony.

With all the data in the current database as the basis, he began to simulate the use of his own self-defense methods in various battlefield environments, one-on-one, one-on-many, against enemies, against monsters, and so on.

The afterglow of the symphony began to fall into Yue Hanzhang's spiritual world like a sweet rain, becoming his valuable "practical experience".

In this way, the flame shield armor skillfully withstood the poisonous water arrow attack of the poisonous alligator turtle. When Yue Hanzhang lashed out with the armor-piercing whip, blood and flesh flew everywhere.

The last monster fell in a pool of blood.

With the entry of resource collection equipment.

Nearby, the Frost Fire Dragon Fox twitched its fluffy tail, and a light breeze suddenly swept over.

The strange smell of alligator turtle venom and blood that was continuously burned by Yue Hanzhang's shield was blown away.

When the smell dissipated, Huang Zhishu and Jiang Lingxiu transformed into human forms and slowly walked towards Yue Hanzhang's side.

At the same place, Yue Hanzhang looked at the timestamp on the arm armor's light screen with some hesitation.

There is still some time before night falls.

Moreover, the obvious improvement in his proficiency through actual combat made Yue Hanzhang gradually less overly restrained than when he first came into contact with the battlefield, and his "bloodthirsty" thoughts began to gradually change.

"Should we... clean up the sluice gate at the hills today, and then directly guard the sluice gate and clean up the Jichuan branch river section from today?"

Hearing this, Jiang Lingxiu did nothing but shrugged indifferently.

Instead, it was Huang Zhishu who was standing by, who began to remind softly.

"The gate is about to become a snake den. If we start now, we may not be able to clean it up before dark. You still have to perform the extraction surgery at night."

Hearing this, Yue Hanzhang waved his hand indifferently.

"It's just one operation a day, how long can it take?" Yue Hanzhang suddenly seemed to have thought of something and looked at his nominal agent, "Who is having surgery today?"

Hearing this, Huang Zhishu smiled meaningfully.

She uttered a name, and then said, "They all followed Master Jiang's lead to join the queue, but he specially gave me an activated extraordinary spirit seed of the Nightmare God Demon Fire!"

How could it be a slightly unfamiliar girl's name?
After a little thought, Yue Hanzhang realized that this was the only person from a noble family in Jiang Ziran's team.

Huang Zhishu still feels a little concerned about the fact that her "personality" has been covered up.

Thinking of this, Yue Hanzhang stretched out his hand in a slightly "rude" manner, hooked Huang Zhishu's waist, and pulled her directly into his arms.

Then, Yue Hanzhang spoke while exploring the structural artistic aesthetics of the spherical structure without any scruples.

"Don't let your imagination run wild!"

Hearing this, Huang Zhishu smiled and pursed her lips.

"I'm not thinking nonsense—"

As she said this, Huang Zhishu took the initiative to lift her feet and twist her waist to adjust her posture.

This allowed Yue Hanzhang to explore aesthetics and display her skills as a lady from an aristocratic family more conveniently.

This revealed Huang Zhishu's inner emotions, which became better because of these words.

But perhaps because she was a little shy about exposing her state of mind, Huang Zhishu used a slightly soft and sweet voice. As the agent and intelligence officer of the three-person team, she took the initiative to mention other information and began to forcibly change the subject.

"It is said that on the first day of the establishment of the Jichuan defense line, the special operations team that forced its way across the river and headed towards Jichuan County completely lost contact. I guess... it's not going to be a good thing!"

"This morning, on the central defense line, two disciples from noble families were killed by the evil cultivators of the Song Sheng Sect..."

"Finally, someone couldn't hold on any longer. He couldn't stand the sense of crisis that death was following him like a shadow, so he took the initiative to announce his withdrawal from the Hidden Dragon Selection Competition... It's very troublesome. This not only involves the selection competition, but also the City Defense Division and the Hanyue Army's combat system... It will have a great impact on the future..."

"But since this incident, Gu Siming and his men have not shown any trace for half a day..."

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

Previously, Gu Siming displayed the top level of the evil cultivators who had wreaked havoc on the Beiting Protectorate in the past. Not only did he cause great damage to the defense line, but he also acted aggressively and moved in a dashing manner.

He ignored the pursuers and seemed not to be afraid of being caught at all.

In fact, he was really leading the pursuit forces of the three divisions to make a detour around the central defense line, but he was not in danger.

Such a person suddenly disappeared?

Abnormal! Very abnormal!

While he was thinking about it, Huang Zhishu's voice continued to sound.

"On the southern defense line, a large batch of logistical military supplies was found. They were shoddy. The warheads of military arrows had less gunpowder than the civilian version... It is said... that they were supplied by the Ding family before..."

Just saying.

Suddenly.

Huang Zhishu's voice and Yue Hanzhang's movements all stopped abruptly.

In the clear stream in the hilly mountain stream, it suddenly turned yellowish brown at some point, and then the pungent smell of some kind of medicinal powder was carried by the wind.

When I looked again.

From a distance, even though people could only see some vague outlines of the gate, at this moment they could see the sea serpent raging and wreaking havoc, like a terrifying sight of surging waves!
Jiang Lingxiu's cold and murderous voice sounded again, as feral as if a top predator was ready to hunt.

"Look at the river!"

What she was talking about was not the small river in the mountain stream, but the tributary of Jichuan outside the sluice gate.

now.

From the south, a row of seven amphibious shuttles were hovering low over the river, spraying ochre powder wantonly.

Followed by.

The shuttle stopped on the river.

The cabin opens.

A group of transformed monks, a group of transformed monks wearing some kind of monster leather, holding a crossbow in one hand and a weapon in the other, walked among the boiling and out-of-control monster group, as if they were in an empty place.

You've all learned to go back to the river and make circles to cause trouble, right?
The moment you think of this.

"This time, we have to clean up before we leave!"

"Start live streaming! No more recording, just start live streaming!"

As the words fell, Jiang Lingxiu leaned forward, and between the flickering spiritual light, shadowy tigers and leopards appeared.

And for the first time, the beast-shaped battle armor that had been designed before was worn by Jiang Lingxiu.

Immediately afterwards, Yue Hanzhang's figure rushed out like an arrow as the live broadcast equipment rose into the air.

On the battle armor and the Yin-Yang Thunder and Fire Mace, the extraordinary spiritual light stirred up the aura of tyrannical power.

And in the original place.

Huang Zhishu was even more angry.

Do you know how rare it is to have the opportunity to act like a spoiled child with Yue Hanzhang? !

At this moment, her eyes were filled with murderous intent, and she no longer looked like the little bird that she had just been hugged by Yue Hanzhang.

“Damn it——【Qizhou swear words】——!”
