I can infinitely improve my spiritual attributes

Bang!

Zhou Shan punched out like a mountain and hit the Great Joy Buddha Dharma Image. The powerful force instantly broke the Great Joy Buddha Dharma Image.

Zhou Shan's punch hit the Dharma Image and then hit the young monk heavily.

Although the power of this punch was reduced by 90% after being blocked by the Great Joy Buddha Dharma Image, even if it was only 10% of the power, it would still exceed the power of a warrior who had completed the blood exchange in the fourth realm.

Puff!

The blood in the young monk's mouth spurted out like a fountain.

The terrible power poured into his body, shaking his bones apart, and his internal organs were shattered, and his internal organs were mixed with blood.

"I give up!"

Just as Zhou Shan was about to throw the second punch, the young monk's soul immediately spoke.

Although he had reached the fifth realm of the immortal way, he could survive even if he lost his physical body and soul, but he thought it would be extremely difficult to improve his cultivation, unless he practiced the incense Buddha body, but this also had disadvantages.

Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, you must not give up your physical body.

This is just a fight, not a life-and-death fight. If you lose your physical body because of it, it will be a big loss.

Seeing the young monk admit defeat, Zhou Shan also retracted his punch.

"The first game, Daqian Dynasty Zhou Shan wins!"

At this time, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War also announced the end.

After hearing the announcement, Zhou Shan walked down the ring, and his eyes looked at the other four rings.

In the Snow Dragon country, in addition to the young monk, there is also a white-robed monk who is a descendant of the Hehuan Dao Buddhism who practices Happy Zen. The Yuanshen Dharma image manifested by this white-robed monk is a thousand-handed and thousand-eyed Buddha.

The strength of this white-robed monk is obviously stronger than that of the young monk.

The Yuanshen fluctuations emitted by him have almost reached a bottleneck, and he is almost overcoming the tribulation.

But unfortunately, the opponent chosen by the white-robed monk is Gu San.

Gu San himself has the blood of the ancient god. When the fourth realm is perfect, he can use the power of his blood to burst out the power comparable to that of the fifth realm master. After entering the Dragon Pool, he swallowed the blood of the dragon and opened up the secret treasure of the sea of ​​blood, which further improved his strength.

Moreover, after opening up the secret treasure of the sea of ​​blood, Gu San's blood of the ancient god himself was also improved.

When he was still in the fourth realm, Gu San's blood turned into a golden giant, but now that he has broken through to the fifth realm, Gu San's body has exerted the body of the ancient god. His body has expanded into a giant as high as a hundred meters, which can be compared with the Thousand Hands and Thousand Eyes Buddha Dharma of the white monk, just like a real ancient god descending.

Originally, there was only half a star in Gu San's eyebrow.

But now, the half star in Gu San's eyebrow has turned into a complete star.

Gu San used the ancient god's finger, and the runes flashing in the star in the eyebrow gathered on this finger, and as the runes gathered, a force of heaven and earth was also added to this finger.

The ancient god pointed his finger, and with the blessing of the power of heaven and earth, a terrible pressure rushed out from the center of Gu San, and the powerful force caused many people around to change.

This power is far beyond the ordinary fifth-level master, and can almost be compared with the master who has opened up the secret treasure of extreme power.

"Ancient god bloodline, fight beyond the level."

At this time, this thought emerged in everyone's mind.

Every disciple from the ancient god has the strength to fight beyond the level.

When Gu San was perfect in the fourth level, he stimulated the ancient god bloodline, and he had the strength comparable to the ordinary fifth-level master. Now that he has opened up the secret treasure of blood, he has the strength comparable to the master who has opened up the secret treasure of extreme power.

Although the bloodline of ordinary martial saints can also fight beyond the level.

But after reaching the fifth level, even if the power of bloodline is blessed, it is limited.

This shows that the blood of the ancient god far exceeds the blood of the seventh realm martial saint. Even if it reaches the sixth realm or even the seventh realm, the blood of the ancient god still has a blessing effect, which can enable the practitioners of the ancient god to burst out combat power beyond their own realm.

It is said that the ancestor of the ancient god who obtained the true ancient god inheritance, when he was half a step into the eighth realm, stimulated the blood of the ancient god, and had strength that was not weaker than that of ordinary eighth realms.

Boom!

As the ancient god's finger fell, the white-robed monk's thousand-handed and thousand-eyed Buddha Dharma image also exploded immediately. On the Yuanshen Dharma image, half of the Buddha's hands and eyes were destroyed by this blow. It can be said that it suffered unimaginable heavy damage.

"I admit defeat!"

In the end, the white-robed monk had to admit defeat.

"In the second game, Gu San of the Daqian Dynasty wins!"

As the voice fell, Gu San also walked off the stage.

In the five competitions, the Daqian Dynasty has already won two games.

As long as they win the next game, they will win three out of five games, and the Daqian Dynasty will win this competition.

Compared to Zhou Shan and Gu San's easy victory, the battles in the other three battlefields were a bit tense.

The five geniuses sent by the Snow Dragon Country this time have all reached the fifth realm. Although the young monk and the white-robed monk were defeated, it does not mean that they are weak, but that Zhou Shan and Gu San are too strong.

The other three geniuses of the Snow Dragon Country fought Liu Lie, Xia Yuanyang and Zhang Tianpan on equal terms.

Among Liu Lie, Xia Yuanyang and Zhang Tianpan, Liu Lie is the strongest.

Liu Lie was born in the Daqian royal family, and entered the Dragon Pond to practice. Not only did he open up the blood sea secrets, but he also cultivated the power of nine virtual dragons, and nine true dragons of Qi and blood emerged from behind.

However, those who fought against Liu Lie were also members of the royal family of the Snow Dragon Kingdom.

The great country of Snow Dragon takes the name "Snow Dragon" because it has the blood of the dragon clan.

The ancestor of the Snow Dragon Kingdom was originally a great master who had reached the sixth level of martial arts. However, during an outing, he accidentally entered a cave and secret place. A snow dragon egg was discovered in this cave. , and then used a secret method to refine the snow dragon egg, which greatly improved his strength. It didn't take long for him to break through to the seventh realm and become a martial saint, and he also had dragon blood.

The royal family of the Snow Dragon Kingdom belongs to the human-dragon family.

Behind the royal family members of the Snow Dragon Kingdom, eight blue true dragons of Qi and blood emerged, exuding a shocking cold air, as if they were going to turn the entire world into a world of ice and snow.

"Nine Dragon Emperor Fist!"

Liu Lie shouted loudly and displayed the secret skill of the Daqian royal family.

Immediately, the nine true dragons of Qi and blood behind Liu Lie burst out with different brilliance and transformed into yellow dragon, golden dragon, thunder dragon, wooden dragon, jade dragon, cloud dragon, flame dragon, star dragon and sun and moon dragon.

These nine qi-blood true dragons all contain different powers, and the power they contain is related to the spiritual objects of heaven and earth that were refined during the exchange of blood between the four realms.

The yellow dragon is thick and dense, containing great power.

The golden dragon is extremely strong and solidifies the foundation.

The Thunder Dragon contains the power of thunder.

The wooden dragon exudes endless vitality and can heal wounds and restore energy.

The Jade Dragon is pure white and has no impurities. It has a glass jade body and is immune to all evil.

Yunlong is agile, fast and unpredictable.

The flames of the flame dragon surge into the sky, burning everything.

The star dragon can attract the power of the stars in the sky, and it can also seek good luck, avoid bad luck, and anticipate the enemy's opportunities.

The Sun and Moon Dragon contains the power of the sun and the moon.

At this moment, as Liu Lie punched out, all the power was integrated into this punch.

The Nine Dragons Emperor Fist shook the heavens and the earth.

The power of this punch was enough to tear apart the realm of the soul that had not survived the disaster.

"Blue Dragon Ice Sea!"

The disciples of the royal family of the Snow Dragon Kingdom also shouted loudly and unleashed their strongest attack.

The eight blue dragons merged together and turned into a world of ice to face Liu Lie's fist.

Boom!

The two sides collided together, causing a violent vibration.

A terrifying aftermath spread towards the surroundings.

However, with a wave of his hand, Xia Houqi, the left minister of the Ministry of War, restrained the aftermath on the arena and did not spread to the surroundings. Otherwise, the four realms of blood-changing warriors would not be able to bear it if they were swept away by the aftermath.

In this competition between the geniuses of the Daqian Dynasty and the geniuses of the Snow Dragon Kingdom, there were still many geniuses in the martial arts academy watching the battle.

After the aftermath dispersed, Liu Lie and the disciples of the Royal Family of the Snow Dragon Kingdom each took a few steps back.

Liu Lie took three steps back, while the disciple of the Royal Family of the Snow Dragon Kingdom took a dozen steps back, with blood still in his mouth.

"I lost!"

The disciple of the royal family of the Snow Dragon Kingdom opened his mouth to admit defeat.

"Daqian Dynasty, Liu Liesheng!"

Xiahou Qi announced the results of the competition.

Immediately, the other two arenas also stopped fighting.

Although they haven't decided the winner yet, it doesn't matter anymore.

This competition is a best-of-five series.

Zhou Shan, Gu San and Liu Lie won three games. Even if Xia Yuanyang and Zhang Tianpan lost, it would have no impact on the final competition.

But if they lose, the impact on the Snow Dragon Country will be too great.

He had lost all five matches. If this was reported back, it would probably affect the fighting spirit of the younger generation.

Therefore, after the Daqian Dynasty won three games, the apostle of the Snow Dragon Kingdom stopped the competition, and the other two games ended in a draw.

The Daqian Dynasty won the battle, and the Snow Dragon Kingdom would withdraw from the battle in Japan and no longer support the Northern Dynasties of Japan. Moreover, the Northern Dynasties of Japan would also cede five states to Daqian.

Without the support of the great power of Snow Dragon, it was only a matter of time before Daqian could take over the Northern Dynasty of Japan.

After the delegation from the Snow Dragon Kingdom left Qianjing City, the five people from Zhoushan also received rewards.

"The emperor is destined to carry the heaven, and the edict says!

Zhou Shan, a true disciple of the White Bone Tao of the Tiansheng Sect, has outstanding talent, bravery and fighting skills, and has greatly enhanced the country's prestige. He is actually the pillar of the country and the pillar of the imperial court. It is appropriate to be given an official title to show his nobility, and he is awarded the title of Nanzhou Prefecture Yuanzhou Zhengsi Fourth Grade State Shepherd and War Ministry Doctor. He was also awarded the title of baron, with five hundred households living in the city. He was hereditary and the emperor was honored. "

The day after the competition ended, Emperor Yongchang issued a reward edict.

"Wei Chen accepts the order!"

Zhou Shan responded loudly, bowed to thank him, and then took the imperial edict with both hands.

With this reward, he was not only promoted from the fifth-rank governor of Yizhou to the fourth-rank governor of Yuanzhou, but he also received the title of baron. Although this was only the lowest title, it was still a title.

With a hereditary and non-replaceable title, you can squeeze into the first level of the nobility.

As for the 500 households in the city, it is equivalent to the taxes that 500 households originally had to pay to the government converted into silver taels.

Let’s use an analogy.

If a family pays 20 taels of tax per year, then the tax for 500 households in the town is 10,000 taels. However, for Zhou Shan, who can earn tens of millions of taels of silver a year, 10,000 taels of silver is not worth mentioning at all.

But this is a part of the title, and owning a house is a symbol of status.

With this status symbol, it can bring greater benefits. No nobleman really relies on fiefdom to live. If it really comes to this, it will be a fallen nobleman.

In the Daqian Dynasty, different titles have different fiefdoms.

If you have a marquis, you can at least have a fiefdom of 10,000 households, or even 20,000 or 30,000 households, so the marquis is also called a marquis of 10,000 households. If you are a duke, your fiefdom is at least 100,000 households, and you can get millions of taels of silver from the court every year.

If the duke is like this, let alone some county kings and princes.

It has been more than 600 years since the establishment of the Daqian Dynasty. I don’t know how many royal family members there are.

The fiefdoms owned by the royal family members account for most of the court’s tax revenue. All the nobles combined are not as good as the royal family. Most of the national finances are used to support the royal family.

Therefore, the finances of the court of the Daqian Dynasty have always been very tight. The more titles are conferred, the more taxes are used to support these nobles with titles. Therefore, except for a group of founding nobles, the court rarely conferred titles. Even if there were, they were only below the marquis, or ordinary marquis who could not be inherited.

The Daqian Dynasty attacked the Dongying Kingdom and now occupied ten states.

These ten states added up to tens of millions of households.

Tens of millions of households are enough to confer a large number of titles. Even if they are all conferred as marquises, they can be conferred as thousands of ten thousand households.

After receiving the imperial edict, Zhou Shan left Qianjing City and returned to the White Bone Dao main hall to participate in the True Disciple Ceremony.

Zhou Shan was the protagonist of the True Disciple Ceremony.

Many of the elders in the main hall, the peak masters of each peak, and the hall masters of each hall participated in the ceremony. There were also the masters from various branch temples, as well as some family heads of their respective forces. Zhou Shan met them all.

After the ceremony of the true transmission, Zhou Shan also went to Yuanzhou to take up his post.

The five states originally controlled by Nanzhou Prefecture all had governors, but the Northern Dynasty of Dongying Kingdom ceded five states, which were incorporated into Nanzhou Prefecture, and the officials in them also had to be reappointed.

At least, the chief officials of the state capital and county capital must be people from Daqian, and some less important officials can be taken on by some local officials to maintain order.

Yuanzhou, where Zhou Shan took up his post, is one of the five states.

As for the original post of Yizhou garrison commander, Zhou Shan recommended his master Lin Yuanxiong to take over.

Lin Yuanxiong himself has the title of Juren, and his cultivation level is almost about to complete the seventh marrow washing. During this period, he has also made many contributions, so it is not a big problem for him to serve as the fifth-rank garrison commander.
