Chapter 248 Job Changes

The three bracelets lit up with a flowing emerald green light.

Xu Changqing’s heart stirred, and he felt a slight tremor in his wrist. A semi-transparent green shield began to spread from his right side, instantly enveloping his entire body.

Inside, you can feel a cool breeze, like a gentle wind blowing on your body, which is very refreshing.

Xu Changqing carefully sensed the depletion of the wood elemental energy in his dantian and found that, based on his current level and concentration, he could operate it for a whole day without being attacked.

After all, it is inscribed with a rune that is perpetually alive, capable of automatically absorbing the overflowing spiritual power and energy.

Then, he walked step by step toward the poplar tree.

They weren’t going to attack, but rather to come to the fortress.

Sensing something approaching, the other person’s previously dim eyes immediately lit up with a green light.

It was particularly noticeable in the pitch-black night.

Upon seeing that it was the master, the fortress did not launch an attack. Instead, it respectfully asked, “Master, what are your orders?”

Xu Changqing said calmly, “Attack me!”

Upon hearing this, it was clear that Fortress paused for a moment.

One of its purposes was to protect its owner.

The problem is, they have to obey all of their master’s instructions.

Therefore, they were suddenly caught in a dilemma.

Seeing this, Xu Changqing instructed, “I am testing the shield’s defensive capabilities. Do not hesitate, and do not hold back in any way. Launch a full-scale attack.”

To be honest, I’ve never seen how the fortress was attacked.

I’m actually quite looking forward to it.

Once it receives a clear instruction, it no longer hesitates or wavers.

It immediately raised its two arms, and countless roots sprouted out, merging the two arms together to form a weapon resembling a warhammer.

Immediately afterwards, he slammed his fist into the green, semi-transparent protective shield on Xu Changqing’s body.

With a bang.

Xu Changqing could clearly feel the shield in front of him tremble, and the powerful impact even cracked the ground beneath his feet.

However, the shield was not broken, and most of the damage was absorbed.

The wind, which was previously barely perceptible, is now exceptionally noticeable.

That cool and refreshing feeling became even stronger after absorbing the damage.

After assessing the situation, Xu Changqing said, “Keep attacking, and keep making you stop.”

Bang!

Bang! Bang!

Upon hearing this, Fortress immediately swung the warhammer formed from his two hands and smashed it repeatedly.

Again and again, one after another.

Before long, spiderweb-like cracks covered the ground beneath Xu Changqing’s feet, a shocking sight.

The shield on his body, which was initially clear, gradually became blurry.

Especially after being attacked, the loss of wood elemental energy in the dantian increases exponentially.

After a simple test…

When not under attack, it can operate for a day, since the wear and tear is not significant.

However, when attacked, especially when the intensity increases, it only lasts between ten minutes and half an hour.

However, the test is not over; it has just begun.

The Wood Spirit Homecoming Cycle has two operating modes.

Hold it in your hand.

And not to hold it in your hand.

Xu Changqing has now completed the tests he has in hand.

Therefore, with a thought, the three Wood Spirit Homecoming Rings on his wrist quickly detached and then floated in three positions on the shield in a triangular shape, above, to the left, and to the right.

The previously dim shield became clear again, and even thicker.

Next, Xu Changqing ordered the fortress to continue its attack.

Bang!

Another fierce and torrential attack ensued.

The ground has collapsed, creating a crater.

Xu Changqing had to change positions and then make an estimate.

If the three Wood Spirit Homecoming Rings are released, the defense will at least double.

However, the rate at which the wood elemental energy in the dantian is consumed will increase again.

Previously, it took between ten minutes and half an hour.

It will run out in no more than ten minutes now.

Even so, the effects of the five runes were depicted.

If there is nothing at all, the duration will be even shorter.

The good thing is that the Wood Spirit Homecoming Ring will accumulate energy after being attacked.

Originally, the three of them simply emitted a flowing emerald green light.

But now it’s so bright it’s almost blinding.

You can clearly feel the amazing energy contained within it.

With a thought, Xu Changqing launched an attack on a rock not far away.

Instantly, the three Wood Spirit Homecoming Rings overlapped, and the accumulated energy within them merged, immediately releasing a palm-sized green sphere.

It flew past at a speed visible to the n*ked eye, followed by a loud “boom”.

The noise was quite loud, even waking up Wangwang and the guinea fowl.

The chirping of insects and croaking of frogs in the fields and along the roadsides have come to an abrupt halt.

Xu Changqing moved swiftly and instantly arrived at the spot where the stone had been, only to find that it had been reduced to dust in the explosion, leaving a crater about half a person deep in its place.

“The power is alright!”

“It’s just a bit slow.”

“However, if you strike suddenly at close range, it’s difficult for your opponent to react.”

The defense and power have been tested one by one.

Actually, we still need to test the recovery effect.

However, ever since Xu Changqing maxed out the Xuanmu Golden Body Technique, normal attacks could no longer cause him even the slightest damage, so it was impossible to test it.

In any case, so far, this magical artifact is effective in both offense and defense.

If Li Sancai, who is in the Foundation Establishment stage, uses it for a few years, it should be no problem at all.

When Xu Changqing walked back, he found that Wangwang and Pearl Chicken were staring at him with resentful eyes.

It was already noisy, and the two little ones had a hard time falling asleep, but now they’ve been woken up again.

My dear reader, there’s more to reading—even more exciting content awaits!

Xu Changqing grinned and said, “Sorry, sorry, I’ll test it during the day next time.”

To make amends for his mistake, he took out a pig leg bone and a handful of top-quality spiritual rice as compensation.

He then returned to the stone house and, taking advantage of the remaining time, immediately lay down on the bed to sleep and begin recovering his spiritual energy.

…

…

Time flew by and daytime arrived.

After finishing his daily tasks, Xu Changqing flew towards Li Sancai’s spiritual field, stepping on large-leafed grass.

There were no problems along the way, and we arrived smoothly and quickly.

At this moment, Li Sancai was tending to the spiritual plants in the spiritual field.

They were surprised to see that the other party had come uninvited.

After landing, Xu Changqing greeted him, “Good morning, senior brother!”

Li Sancai asked in surprise, “Why did you come to see me so early?”

Xu Changqing took out the Wood Spirit Returning to Nest Ring from the green gourd: “Senior brother, this is a spiritual artifact given to me by a friend. It is called the Wood Spirit Returning to Nest Ring.”

“What…do you mean?” Li Sancai asked in astonishment.

Xu Changqing presented it with both hands, explaining, “I’m not fighting, so there’s no use for me keeping it. I might as well give it to you who is participating in the formal disciple competition.”

Li Sancai was very conflicted and couldn’t help but say, “This is a valuable spiritual artifact. If you give it to me, I’m afraid…”

Xu Changqing smiled and said, “You’re my own senior brother!”

With just one sentence, Li Sancai, who had initially refused, was moved. He nodded and took the hand: “In that case, I won’t stand on ceremony.”

Xu Changqing breathed a sigh of relief: “I’m leaving now. I still need to patrol the outer perimeter of the spirit field.”

“Wait a minute,” Li Sancai called out quickly.

Xu Changqing blinked: “Is there anything else, Senior Brother?”

Li Sancai immediately said, “Junior brother, do you still remember Li Chun?”

Xu Changqing vaguely recognized the name: “I feel like I’ve seen it before?”

Li Sancai said with a serious expression, “His position at the core of the Spirit Field has changed, and a position will become vacant. I have already recommended you!”
