Eternal Life: My Lifespan Increases Daily

Chapter 725: Chapter 470: Cultivation Advancement, Martial Arts Advancement! (Double-Length)

”Choose reward four and reward five.”

Song Changming continued selecting rewards.

The next moment, it was as if his mind was enlightened, as if after thousands of strikes, he suddenly achieved enlightenment.

[Silent Saber: Early stage Martial Technique, Mastery (5777/200000)]

To progress from the basic level to mastery, he needed to accumulate a whole hundred thousand points of Martial Arts Experience.

However, with just this reward, he bypassed the accumulation phase and immediately mastered the realm of understanding.

This martial technique has entered the hall!

Meanwhile, in the main city’s night sky, the winds and clouds congregated.

The spiritual energy surged from all directions, drawing the attention of many strong individuals within the city.

”What is happening?!”

The ancestors of various families, whether resting or in secluded training, opened their eyes and displayed expressions of surprise.

They knew very well that this spiritual energy disturbance was certainly caused by human intervention.

”Who is so proficient to cause such a commotion?”

The grandmaster ancestors did not show themselves, but they all spread their perception, noting that this spiritual energy was converging towards the location of the Military Department in the Second District.

”That is the Marshal’s Cabinet...”

The leaders realized who was responsible.

The only person who could stay overnight at the Marshal’s Cabinet and cause such a massive spiritual energy fluctuation is the newly appointed Grand Marshal.

”Judging from this situation, perhaps there’s significant progress in Grandmaster Cultivation?”

This is not good news for the noble families. With the imperial authority gaining more power, they will be further suppressed.

The power of Prince Cui, after annihilating the Changsheng Su Family, has already reached a new peak of prestige.

In the territory of Cui Bai Dao, nobody does not fear this powerful Prince Cui.

Additionally, with the assistance of Hu Tomb and Song Changming, both difficult to deal with, the influence is formidable.

Cui Bai Dao operates in a model where imperial authority and noble families co-rule. Now, with imperial authority becoming stronger, the status of noble families remains but the influence is inevitably suppressed.

The nightly convergence of the winds and clouds dissipated after an hour.

Inside the secluded training room, the spiritual mist condensed, densely occupying every corner.

Song Changming, sitting cross-legged, took a deep breath as if swallowing all the spiritual mist.

Inside his Purple Mansion, the second drop of Grandmaster Essence Blood merged, emitting a faint golden glow, sparkling like stars.

With a single thought, two drops of Purple Mansion Essence Blood were activated, and two powerful Master’s Power rushed through his body like two fierce Golden Dragons.

Song Changming suppressed the desire to steer these dragons, dispelled the surge of Master’s Power within, and opened his eyes.

In his eyes, a deep divine light instilled awe.

Thus, he completed the acceptance of this wave of annual rewards.

He elevated the realm of the martial technique ’Silent Saber’, enhanced the Grandmaster Cultivation, and gained a valuable Orange Level constitution, which amounted to his total gains.

Overall, the harvest was immense.

Without this wave of annual rewards, achieving such a degree of strength enhancement would have taken many years.

”If annual rewards are always this good, what’s the point of daily cultivation?” Song Changming mused to himself.

Yet he knew, opportunities like this are rare.

Once in a while over ten or eight years is fortunate enough.

The key lies in encountering significant events that involve his contribution, earning high appraisal for reward settlement.

Song Changming was familiar with the operation of annual evaluations, yet he never forced significant events to happen nor threw himself recklessly into danger.

Even in peaceful days, if annual rewards are plain, as long as he can continue with daily cultivation, he enjoys steady progress and doesn’t feel the need to stir things up.

[Today’s Evaluation: A day of little significance, lifespan +3, gained time-limited state ’Concentrated’]

Walking out of the secluded training room, Song Changming glanced at the refreshed daily evaluation, seeing tomorrow wasn’t in ’Heaven Rewards Diligence,’ he pondered whether to take a break for a few days to reward the past year’s hard work.

”Perhaps a few days of leisure wouldn’t be bad...” Song Changming thought to himself.

As for the Grand Marshal’s duties, with Lv Yuchen and Wang Wenyu becoming more mature and adept, he needn’t worry too much.

Under the night’s cover, Elder Hu hovered outside the Shangyue Platform of the Marshal’s Cabinet, smiling faintly at Song Changming as he approached.

”Brother Hu wasn’t searching for Su Family remnants, why do you have time to visit me today?” Song Changming asked.

After familiarizing himself with Hu Tomb, their private conversations became more casual.

In the year after retiring, Hu Tomb held a nominal position at the Prince’s Mansion, spending most of the time outside, secretly and discreetly investigating the remaining members of the Su Family to ensure they wouldn’t cause further trouble.

”The task is essentially complete.” Hu Tomb said on the Shangyue Platform, bearing no secrets from Song Changming.

”But you, just as you returned, created such a commotion, no doubt you have refined Purple Mansion Essence Blood.” Hu Tomb said.

Song Changming smiled mildly, opened his right hand, palm upturning, gathering two drops of faint golden blood that drew exclamations from Hu Tomb.

”Breaking through Grandmaster Realm last year, yet refining another drop of Purple Mansion Essence Blood this year, your cultivation speed is truly astonishing.” Hu Tomb exclaimed, looking at Song Changming with admiration.

Song Changming didn’t offer much explanation, sitting opposite Hu Tomb, pouring wine, and drinking with him as they watched the moon.
