Chapter 467 - 342: Armor Seal All Over, Unbeatable Golden Body! (Double - )
All he would say is, it is these twenty Armor Seals!
Unlike the Basic Witch Seals, the main difference between Armor Seals and Power Seals and Agility Seals lies in the protective effect Armor Seals have on the Witch Master’s flesh, which can be layered and accumulated!
For example, an Armor Seal refined onto the sternum, if activated during battle, maximizes the protection strength for the bones and flesh, but it doesn’t stop there.
Other parts of the body can also be radiated by the protective power of this Armor Seal.
However, the farther away from the sternum Armor Seal, the weaker the protection effect received.
This is the protection effect of one Armor Seal.
And now Song Changming has refined a total of twenty Armor Seals, distributed in different locations on his body.
If these twenty Armor Seals are simultaneously activated, their effects layered upon each other, his body protection strength will reach an unprecedented height!
Song Changming himself has conducted thorough tests.
His flesh is already immensely powerful, toughened daily through Body Refinement practice.
Additionally, the amplification of his Immortal Dragon Body makes his flesh impervious to blades and bullets, immune to water and fire.
Even under normal conditions, it is incredibly difficult for those Demon Generals to even slightly injure him, let alone deal severe damage.
With this powerful body, he once exchanged blows with that formidable enemy, the Netherworld Dog, and survived multiple moves!
On top of this, with twenty Armor Seals activated simultaneously, his flesh, already stronger than many in the Demon Race, is truly as indestructible as Treasure Divine Soldiers!
He once stood in place, allowing Xing Tiexin and Yang Zhen to attack him with full force.
Both were Innate Powerhouses who had unlocked the Celestial Martial Vein, with Yang Zhen even about to unlock a second vein, his strength surpassing that of Xing Tiexin.
Logically speaking, their full-force attacks, even Innate Perfection Realm strongmen in the military like Wang Tianshuang, wouldn’t dare remain stationary to get hit.
Initially, faced with Song Changming’s request, the two thought he was insane.
As a result, many weapons in the School Martial Arts Arena broke against him, yet Song Changming’s flesh remained untouched!
Though unarmored, the Armor Seals on him served as his strongest invisible armor!
Areas like the head, neck, and heart, which are dangerous and fatal for other Martial Artists,
pose no such threats to Song Changming anymore.
Unable to breach his defense, under Song Changming’s suggestion, they drew their favorite weapons against him.
Yet the blades and guns faced damage, while Song Changming remained unscathed!
This left the two amazed and applauding his prowess.
Seeing the strength Song Changming’s flesh displayed made them envious.
Yang Zhen thought, purely regarding flesh, Song Changming even surpasses Innate Great Perfection Grand Marshal’s like Wang Tianshuang in the army, in terms of body defense.
If not for the disparity in status, Song Changming truly wanted to test whether Wang Tianshuang’s gun could penetrate the twenty Armor Seals he cultivated and inflict harm.
If even top-tier Innate Perfection Realm experts cannot hurt him, his security in these lands is tremendously assured.
This is why he’s dedicatedly crafting these Small Witch Armor Seals.
Facing powerful opponents, relying on these twenty Armor Seals, he’s almost innately undefeated!
Deep into the night, A Da knocked to enter.
"Master, it’s 9 p.m."
"Hmm." Song Changming put down his pen, got up, and ended tonight’s Talisman Tao research.
Handing the study over to A Da to clean up, he returned to his inner room to continue his daily cultivation tasks.
As for those crafted Talisman Papers, most would be handled by Song Ping’an, sold for some Money and Silver, just barely recouping costs.
After all, mass consumption of Talisman Paper isn’t cheap.
A skilled, experienced Talisman Master practically inevitably spends a lot of Money and Silver.
Song Changming is no exception.
Back in the inner room, he started with Innate Skill Qi Refining, followed by Witch Refining Technique. This routine continued until his energy was too depleted, his mind in some Chaos, and Song Changming ended today’s cultivation to rest.
Beside his bed is a soft recessed pad.
Curled up inside is a ball of yellow fluff, the Little Yellow Chicken still by his side.
Compared to two years ago, the Little Yellow Chicken hasn’t turned into Dahuang or other raptors.
Its size has merely grown twofold, from half a palm size to a full palm size.
Appearance-wise, it still looks like a chick without much change.
At most, its aura is slightly stronger.
If seen as an ordinary chick, its growth rate is clearly unusual.
But in reality, many wild Exotic Beasts have extremely long growth periods, often taking decades to transition from infancy.
He could only say the chick he picked up is among those needing a long juvenile period of Exotic Beast types.
"Chirp chirp..."
Seeming to sense Song Changming finished his daily cultivation, Xiaohuang lazily rolled over and fell back into deep sleep.
Moonlight spilling through the window cast a silver glow into the cozy nest.
With its pure yellow coat, in the moonlight, the chick also radiates a faint glow that echoes with the moon.
Song Changming finds this unsurprising and closed his eyes to rest.
The next day.
Today is a big day in the military.
Song Changming arrived early at the outpost outside the city to organize his military unit.
Actually, he needn’t worry about these matters, as his Deputy Generals Feng Xingzhuo, Guan Yuntai, and others had already organized everything.
His presence was merely for the final inspection.
In the exclusive School Martial Arts Arena for his Twelfth Squad, a thousand soldiers and horses stood neatly.
Under Song Changming’s high demands, everyone was elite!
Regarding individual Martial Arts Cultivation, the minimum requirement was Inner Qi refinement.
In terms of Battle Array, it had improved much compared to two years ago.
Leading this squad, Song Changming was confident it wouldn’t lose to any other military unit!
At the forefront of the squad stood his ten Centurions and three Deputy Generals.
Feng Xingzhuo, Guan Yuntai, and the newly recruited Xia Mu.
Tempered in the position of Centurion, this Xia Mu became his third Deputy General, as planned. Despite their skill and strength, being only a Centurion is a bit of a waste.
"Today is the Military Department’s grand inspection, happening once every five years. It’s your chance to showcase results, don’t let me and the Grand Marshal down." Song Changming briefly commanded, not saying much more.
"We will not disappoint, General!" A thousand voices rang in unison, roars echoing, catching the attention of soldiers from other School Martial Arts Arenas.
Song Changming nodded satisfied.
Once every five years, the Military Department Grand Parade, established by Prince Cui.
Personally reviewed by Prince Cui.
If there’s evidence of corruption or lack of combat prowess in the military, it would end in thorough investigation and severe punishment.
There have been past examples, where General Officers lost their merits and were removed from positions due to unsatisfactory performances in the Grand Parade.
Even worse, secret collusion and corruption led some to end up in jail.
There’s even a rumor of a military Grand Marshal being caught after this grand inspection!
This shows Prince Cui’s importance placed on this inspection, far from merely ceremonial.
Of course, punishment comes with reward.
Qualified individuals during the inspection earn merits, with some soldiers and officers seizing the opportunity and starting their journey to success.
Song Changming has little ambition for this military grand inspection, preferring a stable passage.
He’s been Commander for just over three years, hoping to rise in rank via a Great King’s inspection is nearly impossible.
His military tenure is genuinely shallow.
Rising too quickly might not be an entirely good thing for him.
Holding a higher position and enjoying authority simultaneously means shouldering more responsibilities and affairs.
Being scrutinized more and having a higher chance of being caught up in conflicts.
This contradicts Song Changming’s current focus on low-profile cultivation.
He believes his current status is adequate.
As a mid-tier General Officer in the military, not too high or low, enjoying various military benefits without being too conspicuous—it’s ideal.
