Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, another month passed.

In the practice room of the town guard mansion, Shang Ji's eyes were closed, there were bursts of heat on his body, his body was flushed, and his brows were furrowed, obviously practicing at a tense moment.

In fact, the level of the third-rate military general was even more difficult than Shang Ji imagined, he didn't do anything for a month, and he couldn't break through after focusing on cultivation, and Shang Ji couldn't help but feel anxious. Therefore, he gritted his teeth and adopted the method of "closing the death pass" to cultivate.

The so-called "Death Retreat" is an extreme cultivation method that has been running the internal strength of the mind and vows not to give up without breaking through. This kind of cultivation method, which has been summarized by some cultivation maniacs, is called a death pass by players.

This method does help to break through in cultivation, but it comes at a high cost. First of all, the longer you run the exercises, the greater the pressure on the meridian acupuncture points, and the greater the consumption of mental energy.

There is a principle of internal cultivation and physical training, and if you persist for a long time, you will definitely see benefits, but every cultivation is a dual tempering of the spirit and body, and it is a very painful process.

As for the situation of practicing for one night and then being refreshed and completely eliminated, as said in many novels, there is no such thing as a situation at all.

Cultivation is a painful and persistent process! Without tenacious perseverance and good self-control, the delusional desire to cultivate profound internal strength is simply a dream!

The "Death Retreat" style of cultivation once again doubled this kind of suffering, and except for a very small number of cultivators, no one would try it.

In addition, cultivation is a delicate process, the internal force passes through that meridian node, and the order of passing through must not be chaotic at all, if you make a mistake, the results of this cultivation will be invalidated, and if you go mad, the meridians will be damaged or even die!

In this case, the cultivation of "retreat to death" is even less worthy of advocating.

Shang Ji was also anxious in his heart, so he had no choice but to adopt this extreme cultivation method.

A month has passed, and the players outside are growing rapidly, and Baiyun Village has officially advanced to a small town. Shang Ji has not been able to break through for a long time, so he has no choice but to start "closing the pass"!

Now Shang Ji has been cultivating for four hours, and he usually cultivates for an hour every day, and he practices for about five weeks, and today he has been running for fifteen weeks, and the meridians already have an obvious tingling sensation, and he only feels a buzzing sound in his head, and he is currently forcibly continuing with only one breath.

Shang Ji always felt that he was only one layer of window paper away from the third-rate general, but this layer of window paper could not be pierced for a long time. The anxious mood coupled with the large consumption of mental power caused the internal qi of the merchant to run uncontrollably, and the meridians diverged.

"Not good!"

This thought flashed through the chaotic brain, and it was too late to save it, the stinging pain of the heart came, and Shang Ji's brain became more and more confused, and in a trance, the brain began to start the self-protection program, and Shang Ji almost fell into a coma.

Reason told Shang Ji that if he fell into a coma now, it would be all over, and he must not pass out; But the reality is that the brain involuntarily begins to fall into a drowsiness.

With a tenacious personal will, Shang Ji fell into a half-conscious state.

"Roar!"

In a trance, Shang Ji seemed to hear a loud roar, and he was extremely impressed by this roar. That's how the dragon that was killed before the crossing roared.

In an instant, I was excited, and my brain suddenly cleared up! Then a warm stream spread throughout his body, a feeling that Shang Ji was familiar with, and this would happen every time his force value increased.

"Ding, congratulations to the player Shang Ji for his hard work, the [Dragon and Tiger Roar] has improved slightly, and the force value has increased a little."

As soon as the system prompt fell, a more intense and massive warm current slid through the whole body, every inch of musculobones was nourished, the muscles were stronger and more powerful, the bones were tougher, and even the brain was clearer. After nourishing the whole body, this warm current finally returned to the dantian and fused with the internal force of Shangji, and the internal force in the dantian increased by at least one-third in a short period of time.

"Ding, congratulations to the player Shang Ji for successfully advancing to the third-rate general!"

"Ding, congratulations to the player Shang Ji for becoming the first player to be promoted to a third-rate general, and the player will be rewarded with a little increase in all attributes, the reward trait [Gun Mastery] will be promoted to one level, the passive skill [Hero's Wind] will be promoted by one level, the title [Warrior] will be promoted by one level, the player will be rewarded with five thousand points of prestige, and the player will be rewarded with a special class token."

"Ding, congratulations to the player Shang Ji for becoming the first player to be promoted to a third-rate general, the system will make a region-wide system announcement, is the name displayed?"

……………………………………………………

Yizhou, Yongchang County, Buwei County, Yanhuang Town.

In the administrative hall of Yanhuang Town, a young man with a tall posture and starry eyebrows was reporting something to a majestic old man.

If anyone who is familiar with Yanhuang can find out that this young man is the supreme leader of this Yanhuang Town, the mayor of Yanhuang Town-Yanhuang Blade!

And the majestic old man who was listening to Yan Huang Sharp Blade's report was one of the core leaders of Huaxia in reality, General Zhang Zhong Zhang!

I only heard Yan Huang Sharp Blade report to General Zhang: "Chief, as of yesterday, the 100,000 soldiers we have sent to the 'Beacon Fire' have reached the standard of third-order soldiers!" Among them, 12,896 were successfully transferred to military generals. There are 11,231 junior generals, 1,620 intermediate generals, and 45 senior generals! If the situation is urgent, we can assemble 1,100,000 third-order troops, including the natives, in a short period of time! ”

Yan Huang Sharp Blade's face was expressionless when he reported, but the pride in his tone could not be heard.

No wonder the Yanhuang Blade is proud, millions of third-order troops! If Yan Huang goes crazy, even the entire Yongchang County may be captured!

Shang Ji had far underestimated Yan Huang before, and if the true strength of the official forces in Huaxia District was exposed, it could scare a large number of ordinary players to death!

In this situation where the third-order soldier is still a treasure in the eyes of ordinary players, Yan Huang already has a million soldiers, if necessary, Yan Huang can sweep all the player forces at this stage, and Shang Ji's black water plug is just a big ant in Yan Huang's eyes.

Of course, Yan Huang's plan is far away, and his vision is not limited to the acre and three points of land in Huaxia District, just look at the location of Yan Huang's main base, and you can roughly guess Yan Huang's plan.

General Zhang also nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, and then said: "I have seen the efforts of my comrades, and I have also seen the hard training of the soldiers these days, and you have done a good job. But why is the number of this high-ranking generals so small? Is something wrong? ”

"Chief, it is very difficult for senior generals to advance, and many fighters are stuck on the peak of intermediate generals, but I guarantee that with the passage of time, there will be a blowout period for senior generals!" Yan Huang Blade explained.

"Well, I see. Rest assured, we have already researched and decided to send another 100,000 soldiers to Beacon Fire, and you will need to arrange them properly and train them into qualified soldiers as soon as possible! ”

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!" With a snap, Yan Huang Sharp Blade saluted, and then assured loudly.

General Zhang waved his hand and signaled Yanhuang Blade to relax, "It's not us who embarrass you, "Beacon Fire" is a great change unseen in a thousand years, whether we can take advantage of the situation to rise depends on you, we bad old men can't do anything anymore, we can only try our best to help you." ”

General Zhang said a little sad, the saddest thing in life is the beauty of the twilight hero Baitou, "Beacon Fire" is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, countless heroes and heroes will show their skills in it, but he is very old, and he is not born at the right time to miss this big era.

However, General Zhang is worthy of being a veteran who has been in a high position for a long time, so he quickly adjusted his mood and continued to ask: "Let's talk about the construction of our base, only by laying a good foundation can we ensure that the army is vertical and horizontal, and the construction of the base is also very important, remember not to be careless." ”

"Yes, the chief's lesson is that at present, I have built a total of 1,062 bases in Yanhuang, including ......... village-level bases."

"Ding, the system announces, congratulations to the player Shang Ji for successfully advancing to the third-rate general, rewarding him with skills, characteristics, and titles to be upgraded by one level, and rewarding a special class training blueprint. Please make persistent efforts and continue to create brilliance! ”

"Ding, system announcement............"

"Ding, system announcement............"

The sound of three system announcements interrupted Yan Huang Blade's reporting work.

For a moment, the hall fell silent.

After being silent for a while, General Zhang spoke: "Jing Ran, you are the highest force value among my Yan Huang, right?" Tell me, how long will it take you to advance to the rank of third-rate general? ”

Yan Huang Sharp Blade, whose real name is Wang Jingran, was silent for a while before replying in a muffled voice: "There is no hope of promotion within half a year!" ”

There was silence for a while, and then General Zhang slowly spoke: "Hasn't the information about this merchant been found yet?" ”

Yan Huang Sharp Blade shook his head with a wry smile, and said helplessly: "There is no useful information, this Shang Ji is like jumping out of a stone, there is no information at all. We compared all the household registration databases in the country and found a total of 1,876 suspected people, but in the end they were all excluded. ”

"That's ......" General Zhang muttered when he heard this, and couldn't help but be suspicious.

There have been speculations about Shang Ji's identity submitted before, one of which is proposed by the Eagle King, Shang Ji is the hidden hole card of a certain big man, but General Zhang denied this speculation in his heart.

What cards these old guys have in their hands, they have been fighting for most of their lives, and they basically know everything.

But now that there is no such person in the whole country, this must at least be covered up by the highest-level bosses, and General Zhang can't help but wonder if Shang Ji is really someone's backhand.

"Did you send a comrade to contact and understand this merchant?"

Putting aside the messy thoughts in his heart for a moment, General Zhang asked.

"The pie is the pie, it's just ......" Yan Huang Sharp Blade hesitated a little, and for a while, his words were swallowed.

"Just what?" General Zhang frowned and said unhappily.

Yan Huang Sharp Blade gritted his teeth and said, "The person who sent it is Chen Mo!" ”
