It's like a warm sun rising in your abdomen; the abundant blood and energy cleanse your body, making it stronger.

"Tsk tsk, coming here to harvest every now and then, you can definitely get good stuff."

Qin Yan picked his teeth, thinking to himself with a smug look on his face.

After doing all this, Qin Yan couldn't wait to begin his cultivation.

Through breathing exercises, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Origin Qi) begins to gather continuously.

It flowed into Qin Yan's body like a gentle stream.

Blood and qi surged through the body like a river, and white mist gradually rose from the skin.

Qin Yan felt an extremely wonderful sensation, as if every cell in his body was cheering and jumping for joy.

[After one hour of training, maximum strength increased by 1]

[After one hour of training, speed limit increased by 1]

[After one hour of cultivation, the maximum spirit level has increased by 0.6]

In the mountains and forests, Qin Yan spent a day and a night cultivating, and the improvement in various aspects of his body gradually and slowly declined.

It's like the body has reached a state of saturation.

He exhaled a breath of stale air.

[Qin Yan]

[Talent: Infinite Physique]

Strength: 21.3 → 26.5

Speed: 18.9 → 24.4

Spirit: 18.6→22

"This is unbelievable! My strength has increased so much in just two days!"

Qin Yan was delighted, but such an opportunity only comes once in a lifetime.

According to some Martial Dao commentaries, after reaching the Marrow-Washing Realm, a person's body will begin to absorb the primordial energy between heaven and earth.

The first time you draw in Qi, it has the greatest impact on improving your overall physical condition.

However, this also presents Qin Yan with a dilemma. With physical abilities exceeding twenty, it's unclear what level of martial artist to use to measure his skill.

When my strength was only ten, I thought I was not much different from the Bone-Tempering Realm.

Later, he realized how wrong he was. As his horizons broadened and he came into contact with more experts, he was able to more directly feel the terrifying power he possessed.

With a three-dimensional value of ten, I am fully capable of easily defeating any expert in the Bone-Tempering Realm.

At the peak of the Bone-Tempering Realm, physical strength reaches a maximum of five to six, relying more on martial arts skills, power generation techniques, and combat experience to achieve greater destructive power.

This only covers strength.

However, it's not possible to maintain such a balance in other aspects as Qin Yan.

Especially in terms of speed, even a difference of just one unit can result in a completely different combat performance.

This involves movement speed and neural reaction speed.

Being a step behind always leads to defeat!

Their physical attributes far surpassed their opponent's, and they also possessed martial arts skills, power generation techniques, and combat experience.

He didn't even know how he was supposed to lose.

According to Qin Yan's estimation, a strength value of 10 represents the peak of the Marrow-Washing Realm, which is the limit for a mortal body.

The Qi Origin Realm signifies transcending the mortal realm and the beginning of life entering another level.

His true combat strength should be above the Qi Origin Realm, but there is no specific reference for how much stronger he is.

Feeling the surging power within him, Qin Yan bent slightly and shot out like a cannonball.

The friction between the body and the air produces a loud bang.

However, he quickly slowed down. At his previous speed, his clothes would probably have spontaneously combusted due to the high-speed friction.

Although he himself was very powerful, the material of his clothes was inadequate.

Even so, his speed was still astonishing.

Along the way, Qin Yan saw many refugees frozen to death by the roadside, and the disaster situation had not been alleviated.

Many people remain homeless.

The imperial court's relief efforts have been slow to materialize.

The encroachment of powerful clans on the land of ordinary people is nearing its end.

They annexed almost all the land they could, and those who remained barely escaped the disaster thanks to their own savings.

I just got back to town.

Di Feng hurriedly walked over, took out two letters from his pocket, and handed them to Qin Yan.

"This is your document for joining the Demon-Suppressing Bureau. The other document requires you to go to Mian County, upstream of Qinghe Town, to find Lord Ma, the Demon-Suppression Envoy there. The detailed address is inside."

"Master Qin, all you need to do is pass the test set by Lord Ma, and becoming the Demon-Suppression Envoy is practically a done deal."

Qin Yan curiously accepted the two items; the document from the Demon-Suppressing Bureau was an admission ticket.

The person we really need to pay attention to is that Demon-Suppressing Bureau surnamed Ma.

"Di Feng, do you know that Demon-Suppression Envoy surnamed Ma?"

Hearing Qin Yan's question.

"Of course I know." Di Feng nodded immediately. "The other party can be considered a remarkable person in Youshan Prefecture."

He has been Demon-Suppression Envoy for over thirty years, and in terms of seniority, he is even more senior than our Demon-Suppression Commandant. Everyone has to call him "senior" when they see him.

Similarly, the other party is also the oldest existing Demon-Suppressing Bureau member in Youshan Prefecture, and his identity is that of a night watchman!

I heard that their family has been doing this for generations; exorcising ghosts and warding off evil spirits is their specialty.

"I see." Qin Yan nodded in understanding. "Then, how strong is this Lord Ma?"

"I'm not too sure about that." Di Feng shook his head with some difficulty. "The strength of the Demon-Suppression Envoy has always been a mystery; they always hide themselves well."

All right!

Qin Yan didn't dwell on the matter.

That very day, he rode a fast horse and set off towards Mian County!

We encountered many people fleeing famine along the way!

Everywhere was filled with the cries of despair.

We continued along the river until dusk before we finally saw a county town.

Outside the city, there were countless tents set up by refugees. Near the city gate, there were a few places to distribute porridge.

It must have been arranged by some kind and wealthy families who did good deeds and accumulated merit.

"Halt! It costs fifty coins to enter the city!"

A county soldier stopped Qin Yan, but seeing that he was riding a tall horse, he did not make things too difficult for him and handled everything according to the rules.

Qin Yan took out a string of copper coins strung together with hemp rope.

According to the letter, the county seat of Mian County is larger than Qinghe Town.

Qin Yan quickly found the night watchman's residence!

"The Startling Watchtower!"

Although this place is not very large, it is quite exquisite.

"Young man, what brings you to the Startling Watchtower?"

"Looking for Ma Daren, Lord Ma!"

Qin Yan clasped his hands slightly and looked at the young man who looked like a night watchman beside him.

Upon hearing the word 'sir'.

The young man immediately became serious. "Young man, please come with me."

Upon entering the Startling Watchtower, there weren't many people there, and they all cast inquiring glances at Qin Yan.

"We all work for Master Ma, has something happened again?"

The young man looked somewhat nervous as he spoke.

"That's another matter!"

Qin Yan smiled without saying a word, and a moment later, they arrived at an elegant room in the backyard.

Qin Yan saw the night watchman surnamed Ma. He was a simple-looking old man wearing a thick cotton-padded coat and holding a pipe in his right hand.

"Qin Yan, candidate for Demon-Suppression Envoy Suppression Envoy, greets Lord Ma."

Qin Yan clasped his hands in a salute, then took out the documents from the Demon-Suppressing Bureau and handed them to the old man surnamed Ma.

"Hehe! Please have a seat, Brother Qin!"

Ma Daren pointed to the chair next to him, his cloudy eyes curiously scrutinizing Qin Yan, and clicked his tongue in amazement, asking, "How old is Brother Qin this year?"

Qin Yan raised an eyebrow. "Fourteen!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Daren's face showed even greater surprise, thinking to himself, "What did this kid eat to grow up so strong!"

You're saying a burly man who's over 1.9 meters tall is only fourteen years old?

Even in all his long life, this was the first time he had ever seen anything like it.
