The greatest difference between a congenital master and an ordinary master lies in their martial arts true meaning!

"So-called martial arts masters are actually spiritual transformations. To comprehend the true meaning of martial arts, warriors must find their own path and then contemplate its essence."
"The true meaning of martial arts comes in many forms, and I am unable to detail them all for you."
Jiangzuo spoke out all his views on the master.

"The True Meaning of Martial Arts!"
Shen Changqing repeated softly.
The greatest difference between a congenital martial artist and a Grandmaster lies in their understanding of the true essence of martial arts.
“That said, martial arts masters have actually reached the level of spiritual attacks. The methods of demons are mainly manifested on the spiritual level, the most representative being illusions, right!”
"You are right."
Jiang Zuo nodded in approval and patiently explained.
“Warriors below the Grandmaster level have no advantage when facing demons. Some warriors may possess powerful qi and blood, but their minds are fragile and easily fall into illusions, unable to extricate themselves.”
But once a martial artist breaks through to the Grandmaster level, they will have a great deal of control over the illusions created by demons and monsters.
But how exactly, I'm not quite sure either.

On the left bank of the river, Jiang Zuo's face held a look of regret.
He was only a Xuan rank demon slayer, still quite a distance away from the realm of martial arts masters.
Shen Changqing silently digested for a while, then cupped his hands: "Jiang Shi's enlightenment this time has also made me realize many things, but I still have one question I want to understand."
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
"Speak."
"Is there a significant difference between the martial arts records on the third and second floors of the library Are there any specific martial arts that can help a martial artist break through to the Grandmaster level If so, where are these martial arts located"
Shen Changqing said.
This matter greatly affected him, as it was related to whether he should strive for a quick promotion to the Xuan-rank demon slayer.
Jiang Zuo said: "Any martial art can comprehend the true meaning of martial arts, whether it's the foundational martial arts of the first level or some of the more advanced martial arts later on. At the most profound level, there is a chance to comprehend it."
The deeper the martial arts, the easier it is to comprehend the true meaning of the martial way.
The martial arts on the third floor of the library are not much different from those on the second floor. The only difference is that there are some imprints left by masters of martial arts on the third floor.
Some people cannot comprehend the true meaning of martial arts on their own. Therefore, borrowing from predecessors' imprints increases the probability of breakthroughs.
The Heaven Martial Qi you are currently cultivating is top-notch martial arts at the second level, and it would not be inferior even at the third level.
Shen Changqing nodded.
Like Jiang Zuo said, there's actually no difference between the second and third layers.
At most, the third layer has an additional martial arts true meaning to comprehend.

“Well, if there's nothing else, you can go back. If you have any problems, just come over anytime as long as I'm not on a mission.”
If I'm on a mission, you can look for the deputy director of the Huangbu Exorcism Academy.
The Jiangzuo has already issued an order to expel guests.
Then I'll take my leave!
Shen Changqing got up and left.
A demon-hunting academy is more than just having a single manager. It also has a chief manager and several deputy managers. This is to avoid any issues if the chief manager is on a mission, leaving the academy without someone to manage it internally.
Speaking of which.
Please let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
Jiang Zuo was originally just a deputy manager, but after Liu Chang died, he stood out among the other deputy managers and eventually became the chief manager.
He left the steward's courtyard.
Then Shen Changqing walked straight towards the Demon Slayer Hall.
Demon Slayer Hall!
Located between the Demon Removal Institute and the Library, it is the official place where demon removers accept missions, as well as exchange their merit points.
The Zhanyao Hall, judging by its name, sounds like a large hall. In reality, it is a collective term encompassing several side halls within it.
Each side hall had a plaque hanging above it with several large characters inscribed on it.
Yellow standard!
Mysterious steps!
Floor!
Heaven's stairs!
Achievement!
Treasure!
Six plaques, each representing a different side hall.
Shen Changqing glanced at it and walked straight into the Hall of Merit.
Entering the Hall of Fame, my vision suddenly broadened. There were several windows similar to those used for handling business in my previous life.
He came to a blank window, where a middle-aged man was sitting.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Please present your identification token, as well as the Qingling jade pendant."
Upon seeing the arrival, the middle-aged man smoothly spoke.
Upon hearing this.
Shen Changqing handed over his identity token and the clear spirit jade pendant.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
A middle-aged man reached out to take it, first glancing at the ID card.
"Huangjie Demon Subduer Shen Changqing"
"That's right!"
Shen Changqing nodded slightly and replied to the other person.
Confirmed.
> It was not until middle age that he turned his gaze to the jade pendant with a spiritual aura.
In an instant, his pupils contracted.
The jade pendant, which was originally white, is now completely black.
How many demons and evils have been slain!
>
After the shock, the middle-aged man couldn't help but look at Shen Changqing again, as if he wanted to see something from the other party.
No way.
A yellow-robed demon slayer, being able to slay so many demons, is truly astounding.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But soon, he recovered.
Here's the translation:

“My lord, are you sure you want to exchange all the demonic aura on the jade pendant for achievement points”
Middle-aged people have to repeatedly confirm.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The demonic aura on the Qingling Jade Pendant is so dense that it could allow the recipient to advance to the Xuan rank of exorcist, and there would be a significant surplus.
After all, killing a vengeful spirit monster can allow you to be promoted to a Xuan-rank exorcist.
From the color of the Jade Pendant of Serenity, it was more than just a vengeful and eerie apparition.
Shen Changqing nodded. "Exchange them all!"
After a long talk with Jiang Zuo, he no longer needed to be promoted to the Xuan rank demon slayer in advance.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Exchanging all of it successfully for points can actually help you improve your skills.
> Subsequent remarks.
Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If you want to be promoted, just go and complete the assessment tasks.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man fell silent.
He took out a jade-like ruler from under the counter. It was inscribed with markings that Shen Changqing couldn't understand.
Next.
Just then, the middle-aged man placed the white jade ruler on top of the Qingling Jade Pendant.
...in an instant.
The black lines within the Qingling Jade Pendant surged, and simultaneously, on the white jade ruler, a spread of blackness began to creep upward.
Soon, the black line stopped at a certain mark.
The middle-aged man looked over the text twice carefully, then said: "The sinister aura adds up to one foot and five inches. The total gongxun value is fifteen points. Do you have any objections"
"What does one foot and five inches mean"
Shen Changqing asked.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He doesn't know much about the achievement points.
A middle-aged man said, "For every Netherclass monster slain, one gains one to two inches of Yin Qi. For Grudgeclass monsters, it's three to five inches. Each inch of Yin Qi corresponds to a point of merit."
"I see, so that's one foot and five inches!"
Shen Changqing nodded understandingly.
He calculated, excluding the Qingling Jade Pendant he hadn't returned, there were also three vengeful ghosts and demons who had died at his hands.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Although resentment spirits and ghosts can be as large as five inches, only those in the later stages can truly possess an evil aura of five inches.
A petty, vengeful ghost can only offer a trace of malevolent energy, no more than three or four inches deep.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
...and combine it with other ghostly and eerie creatures.
The other party measured one foot five inches, not much difference.
Then.
The middle-aged man took out a jade bottle, with some strange patterns engraved on it. Then he saw the other party activating his true energy, causing those patterns to seem like they came to life.
In an instant, the sinister aura on the Qingling jade pendant flowed down towards the jade bottle.
In just a few short breaths.
The black spiritual jade pendant had returned to its white jade color.
The middle-aged man solemnly sealed the jade bottle and then, from beneath the counter, took out a silver one and five black ones. They looked like copper coins in appearance.
“This is a Demon-Subduing Coin. Silver represents ten merit points, and black represents one merit point. Please accept it.”
As if he had seen that Shen Changqing was here for the first time, he took the trouble to explain.
Immediately, the middle-aged man handed over his identity token, Spirit Jade Pendant, and Demon Suppressing Coin to Shen Changqing.
Get started.
It's a kind of cool, refreshing feeling, similar to the sensation of an identity badge, but also somewhat different.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Noticed the change in Shen Changqing's expression.
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "This is your first time coming into contact with a Town Demon Coin, right The material used to make the Town Demon Coin is very special. It can even store true qi inside."
Some martial artists use spirit coins to store their true energy and use it when needed.
"It can store true energy inside!"
Shen Changqing's face was full of surprise, and he seriously examined the Town Demon Coin in his hand.
> Something that can store true energy, this was truly the first time he had seen it.
The longer you stay in the Demon Suppression Division, the more magical you'll find this place to be.
Whether it's the Qingling jade pendant that absorbs demonic energy, or the white jade ruler and jade bottle I just saw, or even this magic-suppressing coin in my hand now, these are not things ordinary people can comprehend.

Leaving the Hall of Merit.
Shen Changqing then went to the Treasure Hall next door.
Hall of Merit: Exchange merits for rewards. Treasure Hall: Exchange treasures for items.
The layout of the Treasure Hall differed somewhat from that of the Hall of Merit. As soon as he entered, he almost thought he had arrived at a market, with noisy sounds ringing out all around.
Looking around.
There are quite a few people gathered in front of each counter.
Some people were wearing the attire of the Demon Suppression Division, while others wore casual clothes.
But if you look closely, you can see that all the counters are divided into four areas. After asking around a bit, Shen Changqing came to the Huangjie area and finally stopped at a counter with few people.
Here's the translation:

Please show your identification card.
>
The middle-aged man at the counter handed him a small booklet.
Above is a list of items that can be redeemed, as well as the honor points required for each.
As soon as he opened the first page, Shen Changqing saw the words "Tongmai Dan".
Meridians Pills: One point of merit, Meridians Pills: Six points of merit. The familiar formula caused the corner of his mouth to twitch slightly, but he also understood that the bottle of Meridians Pills he had received earlier was indeed an extra benefit given by the Demon Suppression Division.
Page after page.
Finally.
Shen Changqing's gaze lingered on it. the chaotic restricted area.Shen Changqing can be sure.As soon as one leaves the Shi Chong clan's camp and steps out of the encirclement of ten thousand races, a divine master will directly attack an...
