The huge royal city suddenly became quiet.
Because Zhaozhou and 1,000 senior craftsmen, plus 2,000 captain-level soldiers, had suspended the construction of the royal city and went to build an official road leading outside the mountain.
Because of the high mountains and cliffs, even if there are legendary master craftsmen like Zhao Zhou, even if there are 1,000 senior craftsmen, and 2,000 captain-level soldiers whose hands can carry tens of thousands of kilograms, this is still an extremely arduous task.
Fortunately, the route and direction of the official road can be adjusted randomly. The old man from Zhaozhou and Zhang Liang went back and forth more than a dozen times, and finally determined a road that was easiest to build, relatively easy to maintain, and not susceptible to geological disasters. routes of influence.
This new official road no longer opened westward according to the original plan, with a length of 500 miles, but went north and then west, with several turns, with a total length of 1,200 miles, an increase of two and a half times in mileage.
However, such a route ensures that the official road is flat, there is no need to cross mountains and ridges, there are no huge steep slopes and dangerous sections, the maximum fluctuations in the entire journey will not exceed 20 degrees, and the width of the official road has reached the point where twelve riders can ride in parallel.
In addition, all the foundations of the road will be made of stones with a side length of 0.5 meters. They will be laid out piece by piece to ensure that they are flat and strong enough. Moreover, as long as there are no major natural disasters, this official road can even be passed down for thousands of years. .
However, the cost of such a road is huge. Needless to say in terms of materials, the old man from Zhaozhou directly asked for 1,000 senior craftsmen. This was the last recruitment quota in Zhangyang's village building order.
In the end, he had to promise to solve the problem in two months at most.
Now, of his original recruitment quota of 5,000 people, one thousand are used to recruit senior craftsmen, and one thousand are currently being trained at the training ground to become 500 Rock Steppers and 500 Feiyun Arrow Guards.
The remaining 2,000 captain-level soldiers still have to act as engineers.
The 3,000 recruits recruited by Wu Lei and trained into captain-level soldiers were divided into 2,000 to guard the royal city, and the remaining 1,000 to protect the construction team. If they became engineers, their morale would be reduced.
In addition, Zhang Yang also has 5 palace guards brought by Wu Ya, 6 Feiyun Arrow Guards brought by Lei Ming, and 12 heavy-armored Modao captains brought by Zhang Liang.
This is the strongest force. Each one has strength comparable to that of Zhang Yang, especially the 12 heavy-armored Modao captains. Their combat power is even more powerful than Lei Ming who trained them. Any one of them can defeat Wu Lei. , Wu Ya, thunder.
Zhang Yang assigned 6 heavy-armored Modao captains and 3 Feiyun arrow guards to Zhang Liang and Zhao Zhou to protect them. The rest were placed in the royal city, making them 14 extraordinary masters.
But this is still not enough. Zhang Yang has not forgotten that there is a red-skinned monster three thousand miles to the north with extraordinary strength. The opponent has now built a level 4 royal city. Although it is definitely among the desperate troops, What if the other party suddenly loses his temper and comes over to cause trouble
So Zhang Yang had to think of other ways.
"Just hold on for another nine months."
In another nine months, 500 Panshi Chongbu will be trained, and by then they will have the ability to intimidate and protect themselves.
Zhang Yang was thinking as he strode to a special building in the royal city, the level 22 Qingyun Sword Sect.
You can also recruit two non-soldier extraordinary professions here.
The Qingyun Sword Sect is located under a green hill. It was not designed by Zhaozhou, but was brought by the village founding order. From a distance, it looks like tall pines and ancient cypresses, giving it a somewhat reclusive sect style.
Pushing the door open, it was quiet inside, facing a pool of clear water, a few green lotuses, and a huge incense burner with nine tall incense sticks on it, adding to the tranquility.
Behind the incense burner is a very ordinary wooden house with three rooms, with a hole in the middle and nothing inside.
Looking at both sides, there is a small bluestone square on each side. There are wooden figures and weapon racks on the square. There are three 8-year-old boys, three 12-year-old boys, three 15-year-old boys, three 18-year-old youths, and three A 24-year-old young man is practicing with his sword in this square.
This is a disciple of the Qingyun Sword Sect that comes with the special building. As for the leader, of course there is no one, or Zhang Yang is the leader.
At this time, Zhang Yang walked to the incense burner, and a message was immediately reflected.
"Do you want to manage the Qingyun Sword Sect? Or entrust the Qingyun Sword Sect?"
Zhang Yang chose the former, and a void interface suddenly appeared.
Above is a series of attributes, personnel, and various expenses of the Qingyun Sword Sect.
But he didn't need to pay attention to these. He just saw the bottom, where there was an option to transfer and to be recruited.
"There are currently three senior brothers in the sect. Their strength meets the requirements for job transfer. Do you want to transfer them?"
"There are currently twenty vacancies in the sect. Do you want to recruit twenty new disciples? They need to train for three years before they can transfer."
"You are currently the acting head of the sect, so you have the qualifications to freely transfer to Qingyun Swordsman/Qingyun Swordsman."
—
"looks good."
Zhang Yang thought for a while and was not in a hurry. Instead, he was thinking about the difference between Qingyun Swordsman and Qingyun Swordsman. The former is close combat, characterized by the highest agility and weak defense.
The latter has the highest soul. Is it probably a bit similar to my own soul force field
"It's better for me to change my job first and take a look."
Zhang Yang first chose Qingyun Swordsman.
"Please go to the sword hall, the inheritance place of Qingyun Sword Sect, and pay one unit of mana."
The so-called sword hall is the three ordinary wooden houses. When Zhang Yang walked in, he found that the secrets were all on the ground, with sword shadows carved on them. They looked familiar, and they were clearly the contents of the first volume of Qingyun's Swordsmanship.
Zhang Yang stood in the center and chose to pay.
In an instant, rays of golden light rose up. In the golden light, one after another figures waved their long swords. Their moves changed, like fleeting shadows, and instantly injected into Zhang Yang's body.
Just three seconds later, the information emerged.
"You successfully transferred to the extraordinary profession - Qingyun Swordsman."
"You successfully obtained the talent: Sword Intent to Conquer the Void."
"You have successfully mastered the Sanchai Sword Technique, the Wandering Dragon Sword Technique, and the Chongxu Sword Technique."
The golden light faded away, and Zhang Yang walked out of the sword hall, deep in thought. No matter how childish this method of job transfer was, compared to his foundation-building job transfer mission, it was simply heaven and earth.
This way of changing jobs actually gave him a feeling of déjà vu.
"The sword shadow relief on the ground is obviously like some kind of enchantment, a more advanced enchantment. If a disciple of the Sword Sect with sufficient foundation stands on it and injects another unit of mana, it is equivalent to adding ink. With a click, the copy is successful. "
"But in fact, it would be good if Qingyun Swordsman can exert 10% to 10% of the power of Qingyun Swordsmanship in the first volume."
"So, look at the essence through the phenomenon, erase the mystery of the Qingyun Sword Sect's job transfer process, and what's left is the truth. I even think that the copying method of the sword shadow relief and the demon's magic language are actually They have the same purpose, so if I can take the advantages of the two, eliminate their disadvantages, and fuse them together, maybe I can get the stronger Qingyun Swordsman and Qingyun Swordsman."
Zhang Yang was thinking, and with a thought, the soul force field dispersed, and a wooden sword dozens of meters away was sucked into his hand out of thin air. He didn't even look at it, and just held up a few sword flowers casually. He was indeed extremely skillful. Continue to develop the Sanchai Sword Technique, the Wandering Dragon Sword Technique, and the Chongxu Sword Technique.
He really seemed to be transformed into a great swordsman with extraordinary strength, elegant and powerful, and his sword aura was compelling.
After performing a set of sword skills, Zhang Yang showed a hint of disdain on his lips, and then gathered a soul force field, instantly compressing it to the critical point of substantialization.
"boom!"
After a huge soul shock, Zhang Yang was stunned for three seconds. Then, when he woke up, all the innate skills of Qingyun Swordsman that had been imprinted on him had been completely stripped away.
"But that's it! So, to see whether a transcendent profession is really powerful, it depends on how high its soul strength is. If other attributes are A+, but only the soul is below level C, then a soul shock will Got killed."
"It seems that the extraordinary professions provided by Qingyun Sword Sect are unreliable. I have to understand them myself."
Zhang Yang said to himself that now he is in urgent need of extraordinary soldiers, and the Qingyun Sword Sect can provide him with 6 extraordinary professions at once. Naturally, he cannot ignore them and must strengthen them to the strongest level.
With this in mind, Zhang Yang stayed in the Qingyun Sword Sect and began to comprehend the Qingyun Sword Technique. He had studied this before, but at that time he didn't even have any magic power, so his comprehension was just that.
It's different now. He is already a cultivator in the Qi training period and has thirteen natal spiritual energy. In other words, in an emergency, he can convert these thirteen natal spiritual energy into 1.3 units of mana, and then he only needs to meditate for a few days. On this day, these thirteen natal auras will be continuously generated by themselves.
For the next nine days, Zhang Yang stood in front of the sword hall again, staring thoughtfully at the sword shadow relief on the ground.
These nine days of enlightenment did not allow him to master the Qingyun Sword Controlling Technique. He is not that miraculous genius yet. The content of this Sword Controlling Technique is vast, and the amount of things it contains is simply unimaginable. If he hadn't already mastered the three volumes of the upper, middle and lower volumes. version, it was impossible for him to get a clear clue.
So in the end, during these nine days of enlightenment, he only figured out the most core context and the Nine Layers Sword Realm.
The so-called core is just one word, imperial.
Yu means to control, control, and master. Therefore, the core of Qingyun Yujian is a technique that can control the sword, greatly increase its power, kill the enemy, and protect the Taoism.
That's right, it's a technique, not a method.
The Mysterious Technique of Stealing Heaven's Qi and Creating Good Fortunes is a method, a method of cultivating immortals. It has nothing to do with fighting, it only concerns longevity.
If these two points are confused, it is easy to misunderstand the cultivation of immortality.
Zhang Yang was very lucky that the first things he came into contact with were complete theories, otherwise he would not have been able to grasp this principle so quickly.
Since Qingyun's sword-controlling technique is the most typical technique, it cannot be separated from the weapon.
What is a weapon? It means an external object. Weapons and weapons are all weapons.
Therefore, in the first, middle and lower volumes of Qingyun Swordsmanship, less than half of the pages are devoted to introducing how to make an excellent sword. Without the weapon, there is no skill.
Without a sword, there is no sword-controlling skill.
Once you understand this, you can better understand the Nine Layers of Sword Realm described in Qingyun Swordsmanship.
The first three sword realms are all generated by the weapon, that is, with the help of the sharpness, characteristics, and charm of the sword. Therefore, they are called the sword spirit realm, the sword soul realm, and the sword heart realm.
Zhang Yang didn't study the last six realms of swordsmanship, because it was useless to study it. If you know it, you know it, and if you understand it, you understand it. He still can't master it.
But the first three levels of sword realm are enough for him to solve the current situation.
The first heavy sword realm, that is, the self-generation of sword energy. Are you familiar? This is clearly the talent of Qingyun Swordsman. The sword energy is empty, the sword is real, virtual and real intersect, the real is transformed into virtual, and the virtual is used to control. The wind is strange and unpredictable. It is like a wandering dragon. It can see its head but not its tail. This is the origin of the Wandering Dragon Sword Technique.
Then the sword energy rushes into the void, and the void and reality are superimposed. This is the origin of the sword technique of rushing into the void.
In other words, what Qingyun Swordsman masters is only a version that no beggar in the first heavy sword realm wants.
The second heavy sword realm, that is, using the sword to enter the soul and using the soul to capture the sword. Well, this is clearly the innate sword soul of Qingyun Swordsman. Using the sword to enter the soul, the soul can carry the sword. In a sudden, he can kill enemies hundreds of feet away. It’s still a version that even beggars don’t want.
The third level of the sword, that is, the heart of the sword is me, my heart is the sword, the intention is when the sword arrives, and the rainbow penetrates the sun, which is still a higher level of the murderous aura field.
"So, how to perfectly enchant this triple sword realm in the sword hall?"
Zhang Yang thought, this is two different things from teaching disciples to practice.
No matter how brilliant the master is, it is impossible for his disciples to master the triple sword realm instantly in one day, but enchantment can. To use a common saying, it is an assembly line manufacturing.
The reason why Zhang Yang's foundation-building job transfer mission is so difficult is because it's not an assembly line manufacturing job.
"It seems that we can only borrow the talent of the demon clan. The magic language is actually very magical. Putting aside the incompatibility between races, the role of the magic language is more like a C language code. By inputting different codes, an ideal magic language can be created. People come out. Therefore, I can try to use magic language to program these three sword realms, and then carve the programmed triple sword realms into the sword hall, and then I can transfer to sword masters in batches."
Just do whatever comes to mind. Zhang Yang has accumulated a lot of magic words before. Although they are not very advanced, he can still use them.
The most hard-core key here is how to translate the magic language into the triple sword realm language.
Zhang Yang's method is to practice his sword by himself, then imprint it with the soul force field, then translate it into a programming code similar to magic language, and finally carve it in the sword hall.
"This method is not very clever, and it may take some time, but after all, this is a supernatural profession that I personally cultivated, so that I don't have to wait for other people's exclusive extraordinary soldiers. Wu Lei, Lei Ming, and others train extraordinary soldiers at least It will take a year, but I may only need a few months to half a year, let’s see who is better!”
Zhang Yang left happily. If you want to practice swordsmanship, you must first forge swords. This is the only way for Qingyun to wield swordsmanship. Without weapons, how can you do it
The quality of the instrument largely determines the level of skill.
Anyway, he has to defend the city during this period, and he can't practice his natal spiritual energy yet, so it's good to have so many skills at his disposal.
"What do you mean by that? I am a man who wants to become a swordsman!"
