Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint

Running back and forth like this lasts much longer than one might imagine

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but recall Jiang Ning's timely appearance before.

Various thoughts flitted through his mind rapidly, and then he buried them deep within.

"Thank you, Lord Jiang!"

Seeing Jiang Ning's appearance, Deng Fei immediately cupped his hands and extended his gratitude.

Just after Jiang Ning had left, he had already learned about Jiang Ning's true identity from Bai Luoyu.

The other constables followed suit, bowing and expressing their thanks.

"Thank you for saving our lives, Lord Jiang!"

"Thank you for saving our lives, Lord Jiang!"

"Thank you for saving our lives, Lord Jiang!"

"..."

Jiang Ning waved his hand, indicating they need not be so formal.

"County Magistrate Deng, are you aware of your current predicament?" he asked.

Deng Fei replied, "We have been deeply corrupted by the Evil God, and there is no way to turn back. The only outcome awaiting us is death."

Speaking thus, Deng Fei clenched his fist, his eyes filled with unwillingness.

"My negligence as County Magistrate is unforgivable, deserving a thousand deaths! But these brothers who followed me are innocent, to have them die with me is something I truly cannot accept!!"

"My lord, though we tread the path to Huangquan Road, we shall have company! Someday we may still strive for greatness on Huangquan Road!" said a constable.

Jiang Ning looked at Deng Fei and the others, silently shaking his head.

Just outside, he had already attempted intervention.

Corrupted by the Blood and Flesh God, turned into Divine Descendants.

Even if his blood entered their bodies, it could not save them.

Their situation was like when his blood entered Long Xingyun, completely without effect.

Like mud disappearing into the sea, without creating any waves or disturbance.

At this moment.

Bai Luoyu saw Jiang Ning remain silent and chose not to speak either.

How Deng Fei and the others should be handled.

Firstly depended on their stance as Dongling County Patrol Envoys, secondly on Zhao Yulong's opinion.

But according to protocol,

Being deeply corrupted by an Evil God as classified by Great Xia, with no way to turn back, their end would be inevitable.

That outcome was death.

Because being corrupted so deeply, salvation was impossible, leading inevitably into the abyss, losing one's mind, ultimately becoming a puppet akin to the Evil God.

This process, no matter how fiercely one struggles, escape is impossible.

Unless one's Divine Soul can transform midway and successfully break free from its control.

Seeing both Jiang Ning and Bai Luoyu remain silent, Deng Fei couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"County Magistrate Deng, please dispatch people to accompany me to handle the aftermath at the God Worship Sect's strongholds and, simultaneously, to seal the city gates, strictly prohibiting any exit or entry, awaiting troop arrival."

"Yes! I accept the order!!" Deng Fei obeyed Bai Luoyu's command.

"Brother Jiang, shall we proceed with the aftermath, awaiting Master Zhao's arrival, and then discuss it together?"

"Alright!" Jiang Ning nodded.

...

Under Jiang Ning's leadership, the four God Worship Sect strongholds were quickly sealed.

With Bai Luoyu taking over, Jiang Ning was free.

Walking through the empty streets.

Feeling the heavy clouds above gradually disperse, yet Jiang Ning's heart was not lightened at all.

Fortunately, this event happened in Baisha County, and at this moment, he had grown strong.

If it had occurred a year or so earlier in nearby Luoshui County, what would have been the outcome?

Without him as a variable, Bai Luoyu alone could not have handled this matter.

Moreover, there was him!

Recalling that brief descent of the Blood and Flesh God.

Jiang Ning felt considerable pressure.

He understood why the Blood and Flesh God had suddenly become enraged.

Because he possessed the Authority of the Blood and Flesh God.

Authority conflict means an unending battle.

This was the first time he turned from darkness into light.

Undoubtedly, he knew he was now on the Blood and Flesh God's kill list.

Being marked by someone referred to as God, how could there not be pressure?

He clenched his hand.

"I am still too weak in strength!!"

Numerous potential enemies caused him unease.

Then, he looked at his panel and began to contemplate where to allocate his Divine Points.

[Divinity]: 89 points

[Authority]: Flesh Regeneration (slightly lacking 11.3%) Divine Descendants (partially lacking 1.4%)

From what I have observed before, allocating a single Divine Point to the current Authority of Flesh Regeneration would bring only a 0.3% progress increase.

Allocating all eighty-nine points would likely only result in a 27% progress increase.

It wouldn't bring direct change!

Thinking of this, he silently shook his head.

Then his gaze settled on the other Authority.

Divine Descendants.

This Authority, if continued to be completed, would make the enhancement of others' flesh by my own blood more evident.

With this thought flashing in his mind, he had already made a decision.

Currently, he was lacking manpower.

Even though he had nurtured them for half a month, people in his Inspector Mansion were struggling to take charge.

Having strong individuals was rare.

The strongest was merely Seventh Grade Xie Xiaojiu.

This level of strength was unimpressive in Dongling County, far from being capable of taking charge.

The inadequacy of his subordinates' strength forced him to personally attend to more matters.

Which consequently squeezed his time for martial arts training.

Having just assumed the role of Dongling County Patrol Envoy, he couldn't completely delegate all matters.

Hence, completing the Divine Descendants Authority became even more important.

With subordinates capable of taking charge, he would have more time to fully enhance himself.

The next moment.

The Divine Points on the panel began to decrease.

While the progress of the Divine Descendants Authority was rising.

Faced with the partially lacking Divine Descendants Authority, each point of Divinity could bring a 3% progress increase.

In just a brief span.

His panel underwent another change.

[Divinity]: 66 points

[Authority]: Flesh Regeneration (slightly lacking 11.3%) Divine Descendants (completed 0%)

A total consumption of thirty-three Divine Points allowed the completion of the Divine Descendants Authority once again.

Now, the enhancement of others' flesh would likely be more significant.

Jiang Ning mused in his heart.

Which also reminded him of the recent effects of Dragon Blood.

A single ordinary drop of Dragon Blood led to a noticeable improvement.

This felt remarkably similar in some ways.

Then he closed the panel.

...

Afternoon.

Jiang Ning and Bai Luoyu stood atop the city wall.

The stationed soldiers stayed far from the pair.

Among them, a few who noticed Jiang Ning wore expressions of peculiar interest.

They hadn't forgotten Jiang Ning's ghost-like appearance atop the tower before.

Now they realized this was a top-class figure from the County.

"Brother Jiang, do you think when Master Zhao learns you preemptively resolved Baisha County's crisis, his expression will be favorable?"

Bai Luoyu seemingly thought of something and spoke with a smile.

Jiang Ning shook his head, "It was merely coincidence that led me to arrive a step earlier at Baisha County. This can be considered good fortune, and the credit should be shared between us!"

"Not between us, but Brother Jiang!" Bai Luoyu shook his head.

Continuing, he said, "If not for Brother Jiang's timely appearance, under the circumstances, I wouldn't escape Baisha County's lair unharmed, and would surely perish here!"

"By calculation, Brother Jiang saved my life!"

"In such circumstances, Brother Jiang is both a life-saver and benefactor! How can credit be shared with me?"

Saying this, Bai Luoyu earnestly gazed at Jiang Ning.

"Moreover, Brother Jiang should ponder something, considering your path to the Third Grade!"

"Shared credit isn't substantial!"

"Credit solely to Brother Jiang will be significantly beneficial to you."

"The Magic Gate of the Heavenly Human Grandmaster is not something that can be easily exchanged for Contribution Points."

Listening to Bai Luoyu's words, Jiang Ning couldn't help but contemplate seriously.

Based on his understanding over the past days.

Indeed, as Bai Luoyu stated.

The Magic Gate of the Heavenly Human Grandmaster, even with his current identity as Dongling County Patrol Envoy, remains inaccessible from the Inspection Office.

According to Granny Bai, he can only comprehend a small part currently.

But to truly exchange for the Magic Gate, he must accumulate a million Contribution Points first, then consult her.

This matter had been causing him a headache recently.

The key to stepping into the Heavenly Human Grandmaster seemed not too distant.

Yet achieving the Magic Gate of the Heavenly Human Grandmaster was his greatest challenge now.

Especially since he decided to obtain a Magic Gate that can fulfill nine exchanges.

This was an extremely challenging task.

With various thoughts coursing through his mind, he then cupped his hands.

"Thank you, Brother Bai, for your consideration!"

Bai Luoyu smiled.

Indeed!

Brother Jiang was already on the verge of achieving the status of Heavenly Human Grandmaster!

He understood well, but was not particularly surprised.
