Chapter 267: The first grade of Zhengyang, the best in the world! (2-in-1)
Song Changming looked at the martial arts options that could be upgraded, and there were dozens of them.
The martial arts that he basically included in the panel, ranging from low-level martial arts to third-level Zhengyang Jue, all met the requirements for promotion.
That is to say, the subtleties of these martial arts, the true meaning of martial arts, and the default of the panel still have the potential to continue to be explored in depth.
The only ones that couldn't be upgraded were the two secret techniques he mastered that were not in the martial arts system.
"How to choose?" Song Changming murmured to himself.
This is the first time this year that the reward opportunity for martial arts promotion has appeared, and I have never had any selection experience before.
Therefore, he was not sure how to maximize the effect of this reward.
This reward was triggered due to such a high annual evaluation, which also proves from the side that this reward opportunity is extraordinary. If you make good use of it, you may be able to reap big rewards!
Review these martial arts choices learned in the past in your mind.
First of all, those martial arts options should be eliminated.
After all, no matter how top-notch martial arts are, they can't compare to martial arts that mobilize inner energy.
There is a huge difference between the two in nature, and low martial arts will not be of much use to him.
When it comes to choosing among the remaining martial arts, theoretically it is safest to choose the third-grade Zhengyang Jue.
Keep improving at an already extremely high level, and continue to achieve ultimate optimization in this direction of martial arts.
But the only thing that made him unsure was how much potential this martial art had for promotion.
If the predecessors had already reached the end of this road when they created this martial art, then there wouldn't be much room for optimization left.
And if he chooses other martial arts, he may be able to have a higher optimization limit, which may bring him unexpected surprises.
In fact, when a martial arts reaches perfection, Song Changming will have a rough judgment on the upper limit of optimization that it may reach in the future.
For example, with regard to his eighth-grade Flying Thunder Technique, he felt that the end of this martial arts path was still far away, and there was still infinite room for imagination to explore.
It is his second choice after the third-grade Zhengyang Jue.
On the other hand, he was only in the Dacheng state of the third-grade Zhengyang Jue, and had not yet perfected it, so he could not make accurate predictions.
After a slight hesitation, Song Changming finally chose Zhengyang Jue for stability.
After all, the Flying Thunder Technique is only at the eighth level. If this reward is given, it can only upgrade this martial art to one level at most.
From the eighth-grade Flying Thunder Technique to the seventh-grade, the improvement for Song Changming is actually limited, and there will be no significant increase in strength.
Therefore, for the first time, Song Changming chose to be safer.
In any case, the third-grade Zhengyang Jue is currently the highest-grade and most powerful martial art in his hands. No matter what the final optimization result is, he can accept it.
After confirming it, a lot of unfamiliar content soon appeared in his mind.
A martial arts path began to extend infinitely. The end of the martial arts path that Song Changming could still see in the distance disappeared and was filled with many mysterious and difficult-to-understand essences.
New levels were erected on this infinitely extending martial arts road.
On the surface of his body, the righteous energy began to burn uncontrollably at this moment.
Golden flames danced around him like silk.
He suddenly opened his eyes, and his originally clear pupils gradually revealed golden firelight.
This is the characteristic of his martial arts running at full strength.
Then came the change!
The golden fire dancing in his pupils was the first to change.
The original hot gold color gradually became purple.
The purple meaning began to become stronger, and the original pure gold began to transform into purple gold!
The Zhengyang Qi around the body also transformed, turning into purple gold flames!
The temperature in the entire house began to increase, and the wine in his hand quickly began to boil!
The tables and chairs were reduced to pieces, and the doors and windows were blown open by the force.
With a cry, Su Qingqing appeared in the courtyard and looked at the movement coming from the room there.
There was a coldness all over her body, and she thought some blind thief had come and disturbed Song Changming's purity.
As a result, Song Changming in the purple and gold flame version slowly walked out of the back room.
The heat wave then swept through the entire courtyard, Liuzhai, and even several blocks outside, and half of the county!
Thousands of people who were still sleeping at night were getting hotter and hotter as they slept, and they were sweating all over.
Inside the Sheriff's Mansion.
Ma Shisheng was discussing important matters with his staff. When he picked up his cup to drink, he suddenly felt a gust of hot wind blowing in through the cracks in the windows and doors.
"Why is it so hot all of a sudden?" Ma Shisheng was confused.
"That's strange. Where did the hot wind come from?" The staff also stood up and said strangely.
"Somebody come!"
"Lord Sheriff, this is the aftermath of the fire attribute internal energy. I'm afraid there will be a duel between extremely powerful energy refiners in the city!" A general from the palace strode over and reported.
"What! Let's go and take a look!" Ma Shisheng was concerned about the safety of the county and city, and immediately walked out eagerly.
When the general saw this, he quickly counted his soldiers as if facing a powerful enemy.
At this time, a Jianghu guest flew down outside the house and handed over his report.
"Lord Sheriff, the noise coming from the Willow House is probably caused by that person."
"Liu Zhai." After hearing this, Ma Shisheng breathed a sigh of relief and gave the order again.
"Go and stand guard outside Liu Mansion. No matter what happens inside, don't let outsiders disturb you."
"Yes." The general accepted the order, but he didn't think there was anything wrong and led the people directly.
Now Song Changming's status in the entire Wangyue County is extremely transcendent.
As the governor of Wangyue County, Ma Shisheng had to be extremely polite when he met Song Changming, a commoner like Song Changming.
This was not only his own attitude towards Song Changming, but also something ordered by the imperial court.
No matter who you offend, don't offend Song Changming, a martial arts master.
On the other side, Song Changming didn't know that the fluctuation of his internal energy that he inadvertently released directly alerted the county guard in the county guard's mansion.
In fact, many warriors in the city were also alarmed by him.
But after confirming that it was coming from Liu Zhai, they didn't dare to get closer to investigate.
Almost all the local warriors knew who lived in this seemingly ordinary Liu residence!
In the yard, Song Changming did not let the purple-gold flames rage on his body for too long, and quickly calmed it down and calmed down the internal energy in his body.
"Sorry for making you worry." Song Changming smiled at Su Qingqing.
"Did Young Master achieve a breakthrough? Such strong internal energy fluctuations!" Su Qingqing asked in confusion.
Feeling it up close, she was deeply impressed by the power of the purple and gold flames.
She just felt that if she got even half a cent, she would be seriously injured.
"So be it." Song Changming nodded, the smile on his face even wider.
Although this time was not a breakthrough in his Qi refining cultivation, the results after optimizing the Zhengyang Jue still brought him unexpected surprises.
Even more gratifying than his breakthrough in Qi refining.
[First-grade Xiantian Zhengyang Jue: Mastery (112/150000)]
On the panel, Zhengyang Jue has changed a lot after completing the upgrade.
He directly jumped from the third level to the second level and was promoted to the first level!
It has been recorded in some ancient books that the highest level of ordinary martial arts is the second level!
And above the second level, there is the rumored first-level authentic sect, which refers to the innate martial art!
Above the first level, it is the innate art!
Right now, Song Changming's Zhengyang Jue can be regarded as an innate martial art!
This is also the main reason for his bright smile.
He never imagined that he could obtain innate martial arts in this way!
On the one hand, this annual reward is really impressive, and on the other hand, this set of Zhengyang Techniques inherited from the Chu family has a high enough potential for promotion!
Enough to let him glimpse the secret of innateness on this martial path! With this innate martial art, he is expected to refine the innate Qi that will cause qualitative changes after he has perfected the Qi refining realm!
At that time, he will use the power of the dragon to move and slash out with the sword. The sword is attached with innate Qi, and it may be powerful enough to break mountains and seas!
"The path to innateness has been made clear, the next step is to spend time practicing it!" Song Changming looked at the purple-gold flame in his palm, as if he saw his future powerful and invincible heroic appearance.
Now that the upgraded Zhengyang Jue has dropped from the original level of Dacheng to the level of proficiency, he needs to gain experience again and restore the realm of martial arts.
This is not to say that all the previous experience has become useless, but after being promoted to the first-level innate martial arts, the content and essence of the martial arts that have been expanded and extended have increased a lot.
As a result, the experience he had originally devoted himself to and the exquisite martial arts skills he had mastered would naturally not reach the level of great success, or even a small success.
Therefore, you have to start over at the level of mastery.
The next day, under Liu Ziwen's arrangement, the furniture, doors and windows that were broken during the night in the back room where Song Changming was located were replaced with new ones.
During the day, everyone in the county was talking about the hot wind that swept through last night.
The people who didn't know what was going on, some speculated that a severe drought was coming, others said it was a demonic wind, and there were outrageous claims that a great evildoer was hiding in the city.
Only some warriors with keen senses heard this and smiled and said nothing.
They didn't dare to talk or comment, for fear of upsetting the strong man in the city.
After the annual evaluation, a few days later, Zhuji Pavilion's semi-annual Jianghu Secret Records was updated again and released to the public.
In Liu's house, in the courtyard, Liu Ziwen, Song Ping'an and others gathered in the courtyard to watch the latest rankings on the Heavenly Ranking.
At the top of the list.
It has been occupied by Master Minghuo of Yuxu Mountain for the past ten years.
Now, this supreme position has changed hands again.
Master Minghuo disappeared from the list because he went to Guyuan Kingdom.
The person who replaced him was not Gongsun Xuanzhou of the Golden Scale Sect, who was second on the list, but an unexpected and reasonable name.
The best sword in the world, Song Changming!
"Congratulations, young master, for being number one on the heavenly list!" Song Pingan said excitedly.
In the past, he always called Song Changming Brother Song. From then on, Song Changming's reputation became more and more important, and his strength became more and more unfathomable.
Even the founding emperor of Dalai was very polite to Song Changming.
Gradually, Song Ping'an couldn't call him Brother Song anymore, so he and Su Qingqing simply called Song Changming son.
In this way, he felt relatively relaxed.
"Congratulations to Brother Song!" Liu Ziwen and other warriors who spent time in the house also congratulated Song Changming.
The honor of being number one on the Heavenly Ranking is really too great.
Everyone just felt a little dazed in their hearts.
The number one person on the Heavenly List is right in front of them, living under the same roof as them.
"I, Li Wang, am so virtuous and capable that such an honor can be bestowed upon me."
This kind of thing is enough for ordinary warriors like them to brag about for a lifetime.
"Why make such a fuss? Isn't it a matter of course that the young master is number one in the world? On the contrary, the Zhuji Pavilion is changing so slowly." Su Qingqing muttered while leaning on the swing and holding her sword.
She can be regarded as the most calm person besides Song Changming.
In her heart, Song Changming is a transcendent and extremely powerful existence, and should stand at the top, unparalleled in the world.
Even if she was placed in the Ancient Yuan Kingdom, she believed that as long as given enough time, Song Changming would soar into the sky and be admired by the people of the Ancient Yuan Kingdom and be worshiped by all the people!
Song Changming smiled and said a few words casually, not too disappointed. He held a banquet for a group of old acquaintances in the evening.
In fact, he doesn't care about his ranking on this list now. Even if he is number one on the list, it doesn't mean much to him.
At most, there is one more event achievement in his annual evaluation, nothing more.
He is now focusing on the world on the other side of the abyss. When his strength is almost improved, when the time is right, he will officially log in to the Ancient Abyss Kingdom!
However, although he didn't care about this matter, in the outside world, he still caused a huge sensation in the martial arts world because he was firmly at the top of the new generation list.
The position at the top of the Heavenly Ranking is usually postponed. It is unprecedented for a person like Song Changming, who was originally outside the top ten on the Heavenly Ranking, to reach the top at once.
Coupled with the fact that Song Changming is currently in the limelight, coupled with the fact that he has reached the top of the list, it can be said that the topic is full.
It is foreseeable that Song Changming will be the most noticed and talked about for a long time in the future.
Before the dinner started that day, Li Jinyu arrived at Liuzhai on time, prepared some gifts, and congratulated Song Changming for becoming the best in Diners, and also had a meal.
"Honestly, this should be your idea." At the banquet, Song Changming clinked glasses with Li Jinyu and couldn't help but ask.
"I didn't go against everyone's opinion this time." Li Jinyu chuckled, drank the wine in one gulp, and continued.
"This is a highly unified decision made by everyone in the cabinet. You are now the number one martial artist in Dinah!
Not to mention anything else, your single achievement of destroying the Corpse Refining Sect is enough to convince the public, and it can be said that it is expected by the public. "
After Song Changming heard this, he stopped asking any more questions.
After the dinner, the two continued their conversation in the courtyard.
"Guyuan Kingdom may be more dangerous than you expected. If you go there alone, you will probably die. Even so, do you still want to go?" Song Changming suddenly asked.
Li Jinyu smiled lightly and said, "Changming, you have indeed gone to Guyuan Kingdom."
Song Changming was noncommittal.
Regarding crossing the abyss, he did not deliberately hide it from Li Jinyu.
After all, the other party knows the art of stargazing and divination, and his methods are magical. If he doesn't tell, the other party might be able to predict something.
"I want to go, but if I don't go to that ancient place, I feel that this life will be in vain. As for the danger, I have my own means of protecting myself. If it is true that destiny cannot be violated, then dust will return to dust, and dust will return to dust. That’s okay”
Li Jinyu was very open to this.
Life and death don't seem to be that important in his eyes, but the experience of going to the Ancient Yuan Kingdom is important.
Song Changming always felt that Li Jinyu had something he didn't say, but since the other party didn't mention it, he didn't ask any more questions.
"It's good that you have this awareness. Tonight is just a reminder." Song Changming nodded, but he had no intention of forcing others to stop him.
"Oh? Is everything ready and ready to go soon?" Li Jinyu couldn't help but ask.
"No, I think it will take a few more years." Song Changming grinned.
“That was really disappointing”
After that, a few more days passed while the matter continued to ferment.
Outside Liu's house, there is an endless stream of people coming to visit from all over the world.
Even the entire remote town of Wangyue County seemed lively.
Everyone wants to meet the new No. 1 in the world.
Even because of Song Changming's popularity, he single-handedly promoted the development of the entire Wangyue County!
Nowadays, when talking about Wangyue County, the first thing most people think of is not Wangyue Pavilion, but Song Changming.
However, Song Changming felt that it was a little noisy, so he simply took Su Qingqing and Song Pingan and left Wangyue County temporarily.
Travel to various places in Dai Lai, practice Buddhism and enjoy sightseeing at the same time.
Along the way, if he encountered any injustice and couldn't stand it, Song Changming would allow Su Qingqing to take action.
This can also improve his annual evaluation and bring him positive feedback.
In this way, Song Changming's whereabouts became elusive and difficult to find. From time to time, people from various places said that they had seen Song Changming and his party.
But when interested people left looking for him, Song Changming disappeared again.
As time went by, Song Changming inadvertently left many deeds in various places, which were praised by people and became legends and allusions over time.
And Song Changming's legendary nature has become more and more popular.
Especially when we learned that Song Changming was just an ordinary village boy in his earliest days, it was destined that he would be different from those who were the best in the world in the past.
There is no such thing as worldliness in him, because he has always been in the world.
He was born in a humble age, but now he is unparalleled in the world!
