Rumor has it that the Yin Sha Blade Technique is a superior Martial Arts left by the Demon Suppression Division specifically to enhance the strength of county Yamen Runners and constables.
It is a standardized Martial Arts of the Demon Suppression Division, specifically designed to counter the demons currently ravaging the human world.
This Martial Arts possesses immense destructive power against demons.
It's just a pity that the county magistrate, Wang Gui, that dog, lacked sufficient Comprehension Ability himself and couldn't grasp this Martial Arts.
He was also worried that one of his subordinates might learn this Martial Arts.
He feared someone would rise from obscurity.
Therefore, he kept this Martial Arts hidden, claiming he would only bestow the first chapter of the Yin Sha Blade Technique to those who performed great merits.
However, whether a merit was truly great or not was still decided by Wang Gui, that dog.
Consequently, in the three years since the Yin Sha Blade Technique was supposedly issued, not a single person had ever seen this Blade Technique.
Now that Shen He had Acquired this Blade Technique, it would undoubtedly displease Wang Gui.
But he didn't care.
The incident with his nephew certainly wasn't just the work of that Clerk in charge of blood sacrifices.
A mere Clerk wouldn't have such audacity.
If there was anyone else behind it, besides Wang Gui, who had always disliked him and his master, he couldn't think of anyone else.
He had already offended him anyway, so why fear these things now.
He read through the Yin Sha Blade Technique once, silently committing it to memory.
The next moment.
On his personal panel, the Yin Sha Blade Technique appeared.
"Shen He"
"Realm: Acquired Middle Stage"
"Martial Arts: Baji Pigua Blade (Perfection), Pojun Blade Technique (Minor Achievement), Light Body Skill (Major Achievement), Yin Sha Blade Technique (Not Initiated)"
"Remaining Lifespan: Ten years"
"Additional Lifespan: Eighty-three years"
...
Shen He let out a soft breath.
His trip to Niu Family Village to deal with that Weasel must be handled with utmost caution.
He also didn't know how many descendants of Huang Daxian (Great Immortal Huang/Weasel Immortal) had come down.
Therefore, he had to increase his strength, otherwise, if he were to fail unexpectedly, no amount of Additional Lifespan would be of any use.
He looked at his eighty-three years of Additional Lifespan, and his heart stirred.
Lifespan Infusion!
Martial Arts Deduction!
"In the first year, you diligently practiced the Yin Sha Blade Technique, but unfortunately, your Comprehension Ability was insufficient, and it took you a full year to barely perform it once."
"You continued to practice diligently. In the third year, you finally achieved Minor Achievement. With a great blade in hand, you danced it flawlessly, subtly emitting a trace of Yin Sha Qi."
"In the tenth year, your Yin Sha Blade Technique finally reached Major Achievement. Between each strike, there was a fierce Yin Sha Qi."
Sitting in the donkey cart, Shen He suddenly shivered, feeling the Yin Sha Qi emanating from his body, and couldn't help but grip the blade in his hand tighter.
Even Yuan Lang, who was driving the cart, was affected.
The biting cold made Yuan Lang's hand tremble, and he whipped the donkey's rump, instantly causing the donkey cart's speed to surge.
Yuan Lang muttered, "In broad daylight, where did this gust of cold wind come from?"
Shen He continued to infuse Lifespan.
"In the twenty-eighth year, your Yin Sha Blade Technique reached complete Perfection, but this Martial Arts had not yet reached its limit. You perceived that the path ahead still existed and continued to diligently research."
"In the forty-eighth year, you had an epiphany, reverse-engineered the Yin Sha Blade Technique, and comprehended the initial chapter of the Profound Yin Treasure Record."
Shen He's face froze in surprise.
Profound Yin Treasure Record.
Could this Yin Sha Blade Technique have originated from the initial chapter of the Profound Yin Treasure Record? Just by its name, it sounded much stronger than any Profound Yin Blade Technique.
"In the fifty-eighth year, you diligently cultivated the initial chapter of the Profound Yin Treasure Record and finally initiated it."
"In the seventieth year, you diligently cultivated the initial chapter of the Profound Yin Treasure Record and finally reached Major Achievement."
"In the eightieth year, your initial chapter of the Profound Yin Treasure Record finally reached Perfection, and from it, you comprehended a trace of Qi, acquiring a mystic yin seed, which you planted within your body."
...
Shen He's eyes widened, and he looked down at his chest.
He could faintly perceive a special seed in his chest.
The mystic yin seed obtained after the Profound Yin Treasure Record reached Perfection.
Within the mystic yin seed, a special Qi circulated, forming large and small cycles within the body, and then returning to the Dantian and Purple Mansion.
Shen He's eyes narrowed slightly.
Not only the mystic yin seed within his body, but his strength had also entered the Acquired Late Stage.
He was only one step away from Perfection.
This was merely the initial chapter of the Profound Yin Treasure Record. If there were no surprises, the full text of the Profound Yin Treasure Record should be in the Demon Suppression Division.
Moreover, this initial chapter of the Profound Yin Treasure Record had already transcended the scope of Martial Arts.
It was a Divine Ability.
Therefore, it could condense such a miraculous thing as a mystic yin seed.
However, he was still unclear about the exact function of this mystic yin seed; it seemed he would need to gradually comprehend it in the future.
He looked at his personal panel, his strength having risen to this Realm.
Now, even when facing demons in the Body Tempering Realm, he would not fear.
"Shen He"
"Realm: Acquired Late Stage"
"Martial Arts: Baji Pigua Blade (Perfection), Pojun Blade Technique (Minor Achievement), Light Body Skill (Major Achievement), Yin Sha Blade Technique (Perfection)"
"Divine Ability: Profound Yin Treasure Record Initial Chapter (Perfection)"
"Remaining Lifespan: Thirty years"
"Additional Lifespan: Three years"
...
Unfortunately, only three years of Additional Lifespan remained. He could only see how much Additional Lifespan he could absorb this time.
Although only three years of Additional Lifespan remained, the Breakthrough in Realm had added twenty years to his original Lifespan.
Even though he was still a short-lived person now, it was at least much better than a ten-year Lifespan.
Just then.
Yuan Lang's expression was solemn, and he suddenly pulled the reins, saying, "Boss, Niu Family Village has arrived."
Upon hearing this, Shen He looked up at Niu Family Village ahead, and his expression instantly turned grim.
He saw a group of ragged villagers kneeling uniformly at the entrance of Niu Family Village, with many women and children among them.
And judging by their appearance, they had been kneeling for a long time.
Now, one by one, their faces were pale, their lips purple, and many were so weak they were almost fainting.
Yuan Lang gritted his teeth and said, "It must be the descendants of that Weasel, making them kneel here. This is to give us a warning, Boss. Wang Gui, that dog, sending you to resolve this matter, truly had ill intentions."
Shen He leaped down from the donkey cart and slowly walked to the kneeling villagers.
He looked at an old man with white hair and beard at the front of the crowd and said, "Niu Family Village Chief, why are you kneeling here?"
Although he roughly understood in his heart, he couldn't help but ask.
The Niu Family Village Chief trembled and said, "The descendants of Huang Daxian (Great Immortal Huang/Weasel Immortal) said that the blood sacrifices we offered were old and tough, causing Huang Daxian to be in a bad mood, so they made us kneel here to atone."
He grabbed Shen He's sleeve, his voice hoarse, and said, "Detective Shen, I know you are a good person. Our village's blood sacrifices cannot be doubled. If they are truly doubled, Niu Family Village will be completely gone within ten years..."
"Please, Detective Shen, save my Niu Family Village."
Yuan Lang gritted his teeth, looking into the village, and said, "All demons should be killed, and those dog officials who only know how to gloss over peace should be killed even more!"
Shen He pulled away the Village Chief's hand and said, "I've never been a good person."
After speaking, he walked through the crowd and headed into the village.
