Lin Qing and the other four nodded slightly. Each local Soul Suppression Division has its own unique rules and regulations, and the Soul Suppression Division of Shannan Prefecture has always used this method to select guards, which is fair and just.
"Now, each of you five should choose a path," Qiu Changming said in a deep voice.
"Yes, sir!"
The five people immediately dispersed and each stood in front of a mountain path.
Fifteen minutes later, Qiu Changming shouted loudly, and the five of them climbed the mountain at the same time.
Lin Qing used his lightness skill to quickly ascend the steps and arrived in front of the first person blocking his way. The latter was a bearded man who, upon seeing Lin Qing approaching, did not hesitate and immediately threw a punch.
He was extremely confident, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit. Although Lin Qing was a Jinling constable and a genius, he was not afraid at all. He had been in the Core Formation Realm for eighteen years. Due to his limited talent, he could not advance to the True Qi Realm. So he turned to study many Core Formation Realm cultivation methods and made great progress in the past few years.
Therefore, he considered himself a top expert in the Core Formation Realm.
"Lin Qing, I'm sorry, you're unlucky to have run into me. If you want a promotion, wait until next time!" he shouted.
To prevent anyone from letting the mountain climber win, the higher-ups of the Soul Suppression Division set up a high reward: whoever could defeat the mountain climber would have their monthly salary increased fivefold. Therefore, every guard on the mountain was determined to win.
Lin Qing remained calm, then suddenly strode forward and threw a punch.
Snapped!
The burly man with the thick beard was completely defenseless and was sent flying by a single punch, crashing into the nearby woods.
Lin Qing didn't stop, using his lightness skill to head straight for the next mountain guardian.
In the woods, a burly man with a thick beard clutched his arm, his face contorted in pain.
Lin Qing's seemingly effortless punch broke his arm. The force was terrifying; he was completely unable to resist, as if a hundred-foot-tall wave was crashing down from the front.
"What kind of monster is that?" He couldn't help but complain as he watched Lin Qing's rapidly receding figure.
At that moment, two figures rushed up to him: "Liu Shan, how badly are you hurt?"
"Quickly, the injuries are severe, I need the Rejuvenation Pill!" Liu Shan shouted.
The newcomers looked suspicious. The two of them were responsible for rescuing the wounded and had been nearby just now. They had seen the entire fight between Lin Qing and Liu Shan clearly. Lin Qing had sent Liu Shan flying with just one punch.
He really suspected that Liu Shan was deliberately holding back. How could there be such a big difference in strength between two people who were both at the Baodan Jin level?
Moreover, Liu Shan looks like he's half-dead. Is it really necessary? Can one punch kill someone? Is he faking illness to scam medicine?
Many thoughts flashed through his mind, and in that moment of hesitation, Liu Shan suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
"What? He's unconscious! Quick, help him!" The two were shocked and immediately made arrangements to take Liu Shan down the mountain for treatment.
..
At this moment, Lin Qing had arrived near the second person blocking his way, and he was still reflecting on his battle with Liu Shan.
He felt that he had hit too hard, sending the person flying more than thirty steps away, so the person must have been seriously injured.
This is just an assessment. These people blocking the way are all officers of the Soul Suppression Division. We'll run into each other all the time. It's not a good thing to hurt someone too badly.
But he was also helpless. He had already held back his strength and only used 30% of his power, but he didn't expect that even so, the other person couldn't withstand it.
This time, he decided to use only 20% of his strength. So, when he rushed in front of the second martial artist, he raised his hand and threw a punch.
Instead of a direct confrontation, the latter dodged to the left and then pressed in close, trying to seize the opportunity when Lin Qing retracted his fist to launch an attack.
However, he underestimated Lin Qing's adaptability and speed. When his punch missed, Lin Qing raised his knee and thrust it forward, hitting him squarely in the chest. The latter was immediately sent flying and fell to the ground in front of him, where he lost consciousness.
Lin Qing was startled, thinking to himself, "I didn't hold back again, could I have killed him?"
Without a second thought, he immediately used his light-footed skill to continue rushing up the mountain.
Thus, he continued upwards, defeating six more who stood in his way. Five of them were sent flying with a single punch, their fighting power completely gone. Only the eighth man, who was skilled in external martial arts, managed to block the first punch, but he immediately chose to admit defeat and did not dare to take the second punch.
Even with Lin Qing holding back, the first punch still caused his entire body's energy network to collapse and his blood and qi to become disordered. If he were to receive another punch, he would either die or be seriously injured.
At this moment, on the mountaintop, the high-ranking members of the Soul Suppression Division were watching the battle. Upon seeing this scene, they all showed strange expressions, especially Ao Xiong.
He initially thought that Ao Ziyi would be the fastest climber, but unexpectedly, Lin Qing appeared out of nowhere and was more than a hundred steps faster than Ao Ziyi.
"Lin Qing defeated all eight of the mountain guardians with a single punch. Lord Wang, has Lin Qing already entered the True Qi Realm?" Ao Xiong couldn't help but ask.
This is because these eight people blocking the way are all martial artists with the Dan Jin skill, and their strength increases continuously from the foot of the mountain to the top.
He simply couldn't understand how Lin Qing, if he was also a Core Formation cultivator, could possess such formidable combat power. The only explanation was that he had already entered the True Qi realm.
"No, but Lin Qing has privately cultivated many low-level cultivation techniques to perfection, so his combat strength cannot be judged by common sense," Wang Ling said calmly.
"This—" Ao Xiong frowned. This explanation was indeed reasonable, because many people who had no hope of advancement would choose to cultivate multiple low-level training methods to improve their combat power. Moreover, he also knew about the Unity of Oneness Technique. It was rumored that this martial art required hundreds of different kinds of energy just to learn it. Wang Ling had always wanted to find someone who could cultivate the Unity of Oneness Energy. Now that Lin Qing had been chosen by him, it was normal for him to cultivate multiple low-level training methods.
"But, to have such combat power, how many low-level cultivation techniques must one have mastered to perfection?" Ao Xiong glanced around and saw Lin Qing rushing towards the last mountain guardian at an extremely fast speed, and a look of anxiety flashed in his eyes.
If Lin Qing easily defeats this martial artist again, he will reach the mountaintop and win the job of a taxi driver.
He naturally didn't want to see this happen. Although Ao Ziyi wouldn't lose anything even if he lost the competition, he knew his grandson's personality very well. He was competitive and always wanted to be one step ahead of others. He had never experienced setbacks since he was a child. If he failed this time, he might not be able to accept it for a while.
"The last guardian of the mountain is a True Qi Realm cultivator, and Lin Qing will likely be stopped!" Zhu Mingtong suddenly said.
"I think he can win," Qiu Changming said with a smile.
"Dare to make a bet? If I lose, Qiu Changming, I want you to teach me your family's archery techniques." Zhu Mingtong's gambling addiction kicked in again.
"What if I win?" Qiu Changming asked with a smile.
"I'll pass on the Zhu family's Hunyuan Horizontal Training Technique to you!" Zhu Mingtong said, patting his chest.
"Alright, I accept!" Qiu Changming said with a smile.
"How dare you! You dare to accept this? You're doomed to lose. I don't believe Lin Qing can defeat a True Qi Realm martial artist!" Zhu Mingtong was extremely confident.
