Chapter 639 The third level of the Grandmaster realm, the power of the soul at the Void Control level!
When Marquis Qingyang arrived in the Eastern Territory, although he had countless powerful warriors under his command, he actually used most of them from the Eastern Territory.

Cao Jiada, the magistrate of Yushui County, and Li Cheng, the leader of the Changyuan Gang.

These two individuals, one in charge of the construction of millions of river works, worked day and night, and their names were known to countless people.

Rumors circulated in the Donghan County government that the day the eastern waterway was completed would be the day Cao Jiada entered the Ministry of Works.

With this achievement, he should at least be granted a high-ranking official position.

As for Li Cheng, he was a figure of immense influence in the martial arts world. Large and small fleets, various gangs, and countless merchants along the Yuncang River and Jiuchuan River all depended on this official in charge of the river administration for their livelihood.

The people of Donghan County and the surrounding areas were deeply grateful to Li Cheng for his tax exemption and price increase, which benefited them greatly. They wished they could build a shrine for him.

To be honest, Li Cheng, who came from humble beginnings in the martial arts world, has truly earned this reputation.

Marquis Qingyang's approach to employing people can truly be described as unconventional.

Not only people like Cao Jiada and Li Cheng, but even Zhao Defang and Liu Peiyuan, who were originally guilty of serious crimes, were able to be appointed with peace of mind.

In particular, when Marquis Qingyang took advantage of his serious injury to go into seclusion and enter Eastern Wei alone, Zhao Defang took control of the power of Donghan County.

At that time, the entire Donghan County was in turmoil, and the new army camp, the river channels and river works, and almost everything was on the verge of collapse.

If Zhao Defang had even the slightest ulterior motive, the administration of Donghan County would absolutely collapse.

Fortunately, everything changed dramatically when the twenty-two grandmasters gathered at Eagle Fall Gorge to intercept the Nine Yang Sword Immortal.

Then, when Marquis Qingyang destroyed the altar in Eastern Wei, killed the demonic cultivators, and saved 100,000 people, his momentum soared to the sky.

All the problems in Donghan County are no longer problems.

Afterwards, in the Battle of Yinma Plain, although Marquis Qingyang tried his best to keep a low profile, he still couldn't hide his brilliance.

It is said that the great cultivator Mu Xuan was quite close to Marquis Qingyang.

It is said that the Nine Yang Sword Immortal held Qingyang Marquis in high esteem.

It is said that Marquis Qingyang once had the ability to fight the Nine Yang Sword Immortal on Yinma Plain.

Marquis Qingyang trusted his employees implicitly and was incredibly generous.

In response to the merchants entering the eastern border, eighteen sluice gates on the Jiuchuan River were removed.

Families in Donghan County either join the Donghan Business Alliance or have their members participate in the Donghan Martial Alliance.

The business alliance made a fortune, achieving their desired wealth.

Within the Martial Alliance, Lu Changwu and other young elites from Donghan County are all thriving.

The Donghan Business Alliance and the Donghan Martial Alliance are now involved in a multitude of matters, both big and small, including business and missions, and their activities are spread throughout Donghan County.

The alliance between these two parties has almost become an unofficial force outside the government.

Zhao Defang turned her head and saw Chen Wu walking out from the back room.

Chen Wu's steps were still not very nimble, but he ran excitedly while wearing black armor.

"I guess it was some grandmaster who gave me guidance again?"

Zhao Defang shook her head, a hint of envy flashing across her face.

"This kid will probably reach the Grandmaster realm within three years."

There was a hint of bitterness in Liu Peiyuan's voice.

Anyone would envy someone at the late stage of the Innate Realm who can receive guidance from a Grandmaster Realm expert...

The current Donghan County Prefectural Governor's Office is guarded by at least ten Grandmasters.

It wasn't that these grandmasters received orders from anyone to stay here, but rather that Marquis Qingyang possessed a copy of the Daoist scriptures.

A record of a Grandmaster's insights and experiences in the fourth stage of cultivation.

With such a treasure, which grandmaster in the world wouldn't want to make a trip to Donghan County?
Did you not see that Yao Baiyue, the headmaster of Caiwei Academy and a grandmaster of Confucianism and Taoism, who has been staying at the prefect's mansion for more than half a month?

This Master Yao even claimed that he was "using the power of a great master of Confucianism and Taoism to copy down his insights on the Dao, in order to contribute to the cultivation of practitioners all over the world." In reality, anyone with discerning eyes knows that he was just trying to study the original Daoist text a few more times.

“Let’s go. The new army in Yunming Prefecture has reached ten million, and there is no shortage of food and supplies. However, the Marquis wants to arrange some new method of reorganizing the army. You and I need to make a trip there.”

Liu Peiyuan chuckled and looked towards the outside of the prefectural governor's mansion before walking out.

“Yes, a large army also needs to be mobilized at Tianhai Pass. It’s not appropriate for the Duke of Ningguo to remain stationed at the border. I’m afraid the Marquis has also made arrangements for this.” Zhao Defang nodded and walked out.

The Eastern Wei was indeed supported by the forces of immortals and demons. Wu Daoling had only led 800,000 sword cultivators to Yinma Plain when several great cultivators from other regions appeared in the Eastern Wei. One of them, a sword cultivator named Cao Zixun, defeated Lu Wenzhao, the Grandmaster of the Seven Profound Sword Sect, with three sword strikes. His cultivation was clearly at the third level of the Grandmaster Realm.

It is said that his combat strength was in no way inferior to Wu Daoling's.

Another Daoist named Guiyu killed several powerful demonic cultivators within the Eastern Wei territory with his mysterious methods and profound cultivation.

Several powerful cultivators quickly stabilized the situation in Eastern Wei, bringing order to both the martial arts world and the imperial court.

According to information from the Black Ice Guard's spies, the cultivators who came from Yangtian Continent also brought a lot of immortal pills.

The emperor of Eastern Wei has already mobilized the imperial guards, taken elixirs, and gone into seclusion to cultivate himself.

It is likely that more elite troops will emerge in the Eastern Wei soon.

----------------------

The Prefectural Governor's Office of Donghan County.

Back hall.

The golden Dao patterns sealed the quiet room, isolating it from all probing power.

This is Zhang Yuan's secluded cultivation place; the Dao pattern alone can block even a Grandmaster at the Free and Unfettered level.

At this moment, a faint golden light swirled around him, transforming into endless intertwined power of the Great Dao.

Golden Dao patterns, like dragons coiling around pillars, isolate the quiet room into an independent world.

Zhang Yuan sat shirtless on a jade futon, with dragon and elephant phantoms seemingly running beneath his skin, and each vertebra of the great dragon in his spine emitting the thunderous roar of tigers and leopards.

This is the golden body of the dragon and elephant that manifested after the "Dragon Elephant Suppressing Prison Technique" broke through the twelfth level.

The 360 ​​acupoints on his body breathed in and out spiritual energy, which condensed into a chaotic vortex of a giant snake devouring the sky above his head, completely absorbing the power of the laws he had comprehended from the Dao Inquiry Record.

Zhang Yuan took a deep breath, his soul trembling slightly.

The divine soul at the Grandmaster level transforms from illusion into solidity.

Dispel illusions.

Tongyou.

Yuxu!

The third level of the Grandmaster realm, the power of the soul at the Void Control level!
Having witnessed the battle between Wu Daoling and Mu Xuan, and then personally engaged in combat with Wu Daoling, Zhang Yuan's gains were unimaginable.

The integration and mastery of one's own power, followed by the advancement and breakthrough of one's divine soul, leads to the entry into the Void Realm.

With his unparalleled physical body and divine soul, Zhang Yuan was inferior to Mu Xuan, a great cultivator who had attained the Dao, except for his understanding and control of the Great Dao. In terms of combat power, Zhang Yuan could easily crush Mu Xuan.

Of course, he was still very humble when facing Mu Xuan.

After all, Mu Xuan's insights into the Dao were still very helpful to him.

Moreover, it can be exchanged for many benefits.

"Zheng——"

With a slight twist of his right fingertips, an invisible sword aura quietly sliced ​​through three inches of void.

Shatter the void!

It was clearly the "Formless" realm that the Nine Heavens Formless Sword Technique was about to reach.

From nothingness arises form; before Zhang Yuan, a vast river of sword light appeared.

Great River Sword Qi.

Using the formless sword to transform the long river of form—this is the mystery of the Nine Heavens Formless Sword Technique.

With this sword technique, one can transform into almost all sword intents under the Nine Heavens.

"Om-"

As the river turned, a wave of heat suddenly rose.

Wu Daoling's Nine Yang Sword Intent!
