The [Shangwan Acupoint] is the fifth acupoint below [Tanzhong].

This means that the "Qi" condensed by the Pure Yang Art - Qi Gathering Chapter has successfully filled four acupoints, reaching all the way to [Shangwan Acupoint].

Chen Bin slowly opened his eyes, his breathing gradually calming down, and the surging power within his body slowly receded.

Just then, a hurried sound of horse hooves came from the doorway. The sound of the hooves was deliberately made loud, as if announcing someone's arrival.

Liu Wei's voice came clearly from outside the courtyard, "Captain Chen, the bodies have all been collected. We should leave."

Upon hearing this, Chen Bin immediately got up and walked steadily towards the outside of the courtyard.

He saw Liu Wei riding a tall, magnificent horse, holding another horse by the reins.

Seeing Chen Bin emerge, Liu Wei forced a smile onto his face.

A Martial Artist's first point of reference when assessing others is their own realm. This is equivalent to their "first degree."

Since Chen Bin was already in the Qi Gathering Realm, he was now of the same level as Liu Wei.

Liu Wei felt he should look Chen Bin in the eye.

Regardless of their official rank.

Because within the same realm, one could truly defeat the other.

Chen Bin cupped his hands and said, "Banner Officer Liu, you've worked hard!"

"Not at all. Our job is the easiest, just cleaning up the battlefield."

Liu Wei spoke as he tossed the reins in his hand towards Chen Bin.

Chen Bin reached out and steadily caught the reins, then unceremoniously mounted the horse.

"Return to the city!" Liu Wei waved his hand with force, shouting loudly.

Instantly, the procession began to move slowly.

Horses pulled simple carts laden with the corpses of demons and humans, heading in the direction of Wanbao County City.

On the way back to the county city, the kicked-up dust danced wildly in the light.

Chen Bin sat upright on his horse, his posture straight. He turned his head slightly, his gaze falling on Liu Wei, who was also riding a horse beside him. He spoke with a serious expression:

"Banner Officer Liu, I have a question for you."

Liu Wei's face held a hearty smile. He raised his hand and waved, his movements casual and natural, dispelling any invisible barriers. "Yes!"

He spoke, "I'm only a few years older than you, and our realms are comparable. If you don't mind, how about I call you Younger Brother, and you call me Brother?"

Chen Bin's gaze was calm. After looking at Liu Wei, he nodded slowly without hesitation, his attitude sincere. "Alright, Brother Liu. Then I, Younger Brother, will respectfully obey."

Upon hearing this, Liu Wei's smile instantly bloomed even brighter. He couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh heartily, his laughter echoing robustly on the open road. "This time, Younger Brother, you killed twenty Tiger Demons.

Two of them were at the Qi Gathering Realm. This accomplishment is enough to be promoted to Captain.

Coupled with Kang Ronghao's death, there's an urgent need for personnel.

Your promotion to Captain is already a sure thing."

Chen Bin had been quietly following beside him. Hearing this, he nodded slightly and said softly, "This will likely still require the consent of my superiors."

"Don't worry, I absolutely agree, and General Banner Wang Sheng will also agree."

Liu Wei's lips curved upwards, his eyes full of confidence. He stated decisively, "Brother Chen, you don't need to worry."

"Then thank you, Brother Liu." Chen Bin's expression was calm, and he didn't feign refusal out of politeness.

"By the way, what was it you wanted to say, Younger Brother?" Liu Wei stopped smiling and asked curiously.

Chen Bin didn't hesitate at all. His expression held a hint of confusion as he directly voiced his inner question:

"This Pure Yang Art - Qi Gathering Chapter seems to only contain the Mind Method for the Qi Gathering Realm. If I want to advance to higher realms, where do I need to go to obtain the laws for realms above Meridian Opening?"

"So you're practicing the Pure Yang Art - Qi Gathering Chapter!

No wonder your aura is as magnificent as the bright sun," Liu Wei's eyes flashed with surprise upon hearing this, and his tone became more astonished. "Of all the cultivation arts in the entire Demon Suppression Division, the Pure Yang Art - Qi Gathering Chapter is the most difficult to practice."

"How so?" Chen Bin pressed.

"Not only is the cultivation method difficult to practice, but it's also because many people break their purity before reaching the Qi Gathering Realm," Liu Wei frowned slightly, a look of pity on his face, and his tone became somewhat heavy. "Once the Pure Yang Qi dissipates, it's very difficult.

Think about it, in our Great Zhou Dynasty, men and women must get married upon reaching adulthood, otherwise, they have to pay double the Head Tax.

Who can resist the temptation of affairs with mature women when they are young boys and girls?

Moreover, although the Qi Gathering Chapter of the Pure Yang Art has a deep foundation, practicing it daily under the bright sun is excruciatingly painful and cannot be achieved quickly."

Chen Bin immediately lowered his head and pondered: Fortunately, I can cheat, and I only need to kill Red Names to gain points.

Liu Wei looked at Chen Bin and sighed helplessly, with an apologetic expression on his face, "I really can't help you with this cultivation method."

Chen Bin looked up and glanced at Liu Wei again. Liu Wei paused and continued, "For the Meridian Opening Realm cultivation method, you must go to the Hundred Households Office in Dongyang Prefecture to obtain it.

Everyone, upon reaching the peak of the Qi Gathering Realm, can be recommended to serve in either the Thousand Households Office or the Hundred Households Office.

If the service is approved, you will receive the Mind Method for the Meridian Opening Realm.

I don't understand the specifics, you might have to ask the General Banner.

However, I heard that if you gain the recognition of a 'Demon Exorcist,' they can also directly send you the cultivation method."

Chen Bin nodded thoughtfully. The latter seemed simpler, but what was that 'Demon Exorcist'?

He didn't remember this, so he continued to ask, "I want to learn some Martial Arts, where can I learn them?"

"You still want to learn Martial Arts?" A hint of surprise flashed in Liu Wei's eyes as he asked in return.

Chen Bin's expression was serious, and he said earnestly, "This battle exposed many of my weaknesses, and I need to strengthen them!"

Liu Wei's expression returned to normal, and he explained seriously, "The Demon Suppression Division has them, you can go and learn.

Once you become a Small Banner, you will have the authority to learn two more Martial Arts!"

Chen Bin immediately cupped his hands in thanks, his movements crisp and neat, "Thank you, Brother, for clarifying."

Liu Wei also cupped his hands in return, his attitude friendly, "You're welcome!"

Li Kun followed behind the two on horseback, his eyes filled with a hint of envy, staring intently at Chen Bin's retreating figure.

Looking at Chen Bin's figure, he couldn't help but grumble in his heart: This kid, just a few days ago, he was so respectful to me, calling me Captain Li, saying Captain Li worked hard, and now he's already ahead of me.

It's unfair.

The group continued to move forward, and when they passed Ertang Village, they slowly stopped, staying for two hours.

In a Chaotic World, severe laws must be used.

How severe?

Liu Wei leaped nimbly from his horse and strode into the village, quickly finding the Village Chief.

He stood on a slightly elevated spot and gave some orders to the Village Chief.

Before long, the villagers were gathered one after another, surrounding an open space.

If you can't find the book title, you can try searching for the author, maybe they just changed their name!
