Nanshao Prefecture governs four counties and has a registered population of 500,000 to 600,000.
If you include hermits and mountain people, the number will be even greater.
However, for such a medium-sized local county, Exorcism Hall has only one hundred and twenty-seven guards in the prefectural city, and has no power to project to the county below.
The reasons for this are complex.
Although Imperial Guard Department directly took orders from Imperial family, previous Emperor worshiped civility and suppressed military power during his reign, so his life was not comfortable.
Deer Faction, who controls the cabinet, regards Imperial Guard Department as a thorn in his side and tries every means to suppress him.
The most important thing is that Great Qian's annual revenue has been declining, and the funds allocated to the Imperial Guard Department and Exorcism Hall in various places have been decreasing year after year. In addition, the guards suffered high casualties during the execution of their missions, which led to the current situation.
Zuo Yongjun, who is in charge of the Nanshao Exorcism Hall, is an upright person and extremely rejects the crooked Evil Dao. It is commendable to be able to maintain such a situation.
But this is exactly what Wang Chen appreciates most about him.
The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the rough wind knows the loyal ministers.
Such a person is worthy of trust and can be entrusted with important tasks!
After arranging the most important affairs, Wang Chen left all other work to Xiao Wan.
Retreat and meditate on "Five Suns Dry Thunder" by yourself.
"Five Suns Dry Thunder" was born out of "Supreme Clarity Heavenly Divine Firmament Thunder Method". It belongs to the latter's method of entering the foundation. It is a Daoist orthodox technique. The method is profound and powerful. It can be practiced from the Qi Refining stage to Purple Mansion realm.
In order to redeem this Thunder Method, Wang Chen paid a full thousand Merit Points.
The difficulty of practicing Five Suns Dry Thunder is also very high. He kept meditating on it while flying to Great Qian on Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, but the progress was quite slow.
This Law Technique is extremely compatible with Thunderclap Sword Technique. Once practiced successfully, it can greatly increase the power of Swordsmanship.
Therefore, Wang Chen is inevitable and must be mastered no matter what.
He increased the operating intensity of the Star Observation Pavilion magic circle to the highest level and went all out to practice Five Suns Dry Thunder.
Three days later, Wang Chen came out of customs.
After he came out of seclusion, he called Xiao Wan to give some instructions, and then quietly left Garrison Celestial Master's Mansion.
Wang Chen had just stepped out of the door and immediately felt several peeping eyes falling on him!
There is no doubt that someone has been secretly watching Garrison Celestial Master's Mansion's every move.
This is actually quite normal.
Previously Wang Chen sent thirty heads to the Prefectural Governor's Mansion and slapped Ruan Zhaoming hard.
How could the other party just give up?
And Prefectural Governor's Mansion is certainly not the only one staring at the Celestial Master's Mansion.
After all, Garrison Celestial Master's Mansion now has a new owner, and Wang Chen's current identity can be said to be very sensitive.
Even if he has no intention of getting involved in worldly affairs, it is impossible for others to be unprepared and vigilant.
Wang Chen has been prepared for this.
He was wearing a set of ordinary clothes, and he was wearing Thousand Transformations Mask when he came out.
He changed into an ordinary face.
No one can recognize him.
With the blessing of Breath Concealment Technique, Wang Chen naturally blended into the crowd and disappeared.
After leaving Nanshao City, he headed southwest.
Arriving at a deserted place, Wang Chen used Shadowless Divine Movement, and his body flew out like an arrow from a string.
Soon we entered the rolling mountains.
His destination for leaving the city this time was Falling Lightning Peak, a hundred miles away from Nanshao City.
Five Suns Dry Thunder The most critical step in getting started is to attract thunder into the body.
The cultivator is required to introduce a trace of thunder into the body, temper the meridians and magic power, and enhance the affinity for thunder and lightning.
It is very dangerous to draw thunder into the body, and it is impossible to sit in a quiet room and complete the meditation.
You need to find a place with dense thunder and experience the power of heaven and earth for yourself, in order to understand the mystery of this Law Technique!
Wang Chen checked the information before and knew that this mountain peak got its name because thunder often falls.
It was just the training place he needed.
In fact, without Falling Lightning Peak, Wang Chen's original plan was to make a big kite and fly it up during thunderstorms to complete the purpose of attracting lightning into the body.
There is no need for such trouble now, and if Falling Lightning Peak is as described in the information, it is very suitable for him to practice Five Suns Dry Thunder here in the future.
Half an hour later, Wang Chen arrived at its destination.
Falling Lightning Peak is actually easy to find. It stands like a giant pillar among the mountains, straight and proud.
Clouds and mist shrouded the top of the peak pillar, and there was a faint roar of thunder coming from the clouds.
Wang Chen was overjoyed and immediately accelerated towards the top of the mountain.
For ordinary people, climbing such a steep mountain is definitely very dangerous.
But for Wang Chen, there is not much difference from walking on flat ground.
If it weren't for saving mana, he could just use Willow Leaf Flying Boat and fly up directly.
Even so, Wang Chen reached the peak smoothly with only a cup of tea.
"Huh?"
Wang Chen was stunned.
The peak of Sunset Peak is quite flat, as if someone had cut it with a sword, and the area is quite large.
There are no trees on it, only a few weeds growing tenaciously in the gaps between the rocks.
The stone here is generally burnt black, and there are a few signs of melting.
What surprised Wang Chen was not the strange sights here.
After all, it is just Mortal World. No matter how magical it is, there is no way to compare it with Cultivation World.
What really surprised Wang Chen was that he actually sensed the presence of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in the surrounding space!
Mortal World belongs to the land of extraordinary spirits. Normally, there is no Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
Previously Wang Chen ran from Qian Capital to Southern Shao for thousands of miles.
However, there is Spiritual Qi here?
Although the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi on the front of Falling Thunder is extremely thin and does not bring much benefit to practice, the existence of Spiritual Qi itself is very special, and there is obviously another mysterious existence.
It's just that Wang Chen is currently in no mood to dig out the secrets here.
He looked around, then found a large rock, dug a hollow next to it and sat down.
Inducing thunder into the body is not like using your head to hold up the thunder in the sky - that is called seeking death.
As long as you can sense the power of thunder dissipating in the surrounding space, guide it into your own meridians and Dantian, and repeat until the tempering is completed, Five Suns Dry Thunder is considered a beginner.
And Wang Chen digs the hole so that after sitting down, his body height will not exceed the rock next to it.
Otherwise, you may become the target of being struck by lightning.
Rumble~
He had just finished getting ready when a low roar suddenly came from above his head, and one sound was louder than the other.
Click!
The next moment, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck just a dozen steps away from Wang Chen.
Falling Lightning Peak lived up to its name, and the frequency of lightning strikes far exceeded his expectations.
Wang Chen is not surprised but happy.
He immediately concentrated his energy and began to absorb the power of thunder that filled the surrounding space.
