Saint Walker, Dragon Slayer, Martial Arts Ancestor!
Not letting Shen Hex down after so many years of accumulation, at the last moment, three new professions were generated, all of which are high-quality Tier Three professions.
But how to choose?
If following the original idea, then Martial Arts Ancestor is undoubtedly the best choice, greatly improve Martial Dao efficiency, without needing to fight with others, or consume too many resources and time, just bury yourself in hard practice to achieve considerable combat capability.
This upgrade method is highly applicable, very suitable for realistic development, after all, given the combat level of the Human Empire, it's impossible to use the method of the Martial Madman to raise storms, causing trouble to level up, that's like lighting a lamp in the toilet—courting death!
So, for early development, Martial Arts Ancestor is most suitable, and its potential later on is not weak either, especially with the innate ability Martial Dao God which can break through various limitations to enhance martial arts cultivation, far surpassing others by a large stage.
A large stage, saying it decides everything would not be an exaggeration.
However, after much thinking, Shen Hex finally decided to choose Saint Walker.
Indeed, Martial Arts Ancestor is very comprehensive, with strong advantages both early and late, but to Shen Hex, Saint Walker has one advantage that Martial Arts Ancestor cannot reach, that is its innate ability Saintly Walk Without Regret, which can be immune to the influence of legal order and Emperor Dragon Qi.
This may sound ordinary, after all, Martial Arts Ancestor also has Emperor Dragon Qi, also a higher world power, equally possessing "unaffected by ten thousand laws", not inferior to Saint Walker's Qiankun Righteous Qi.
But it has one problem, a very big problem, that is how to increase this Emperor Dragon Qi?
Shen Hex certainly cannot rely on itself, within the Human Empire's territory, or somewhere in the universe, to find a planet to proclaim oneself king, then expand territory and conquer the world, right?
It's a joke, he definitely does not want to face the Emperor's Forbidden Army and those progenies of Evil Gods right now.
Therefore, if choosing the Martial Arts Ancestor, then in the early and even mid-term, the growth speed of Emperor Dragon Qi will be extremely slow.
Meanwhile, Shen Hex's upcoming development plan greatly requires high-level powers such as Qiankun Righteous Qi, Emperor Dragon Qi.
Because this kind of power has a basic characteristic that is unaffected by ten thousand laws, it can be immune to various curses, divinations, surveillance, greatly protecting one's privacy.
It's this point that Shen Hex appreciates, the Human Empire established for hundreds of thousands of years, all kinds of messed-up professions exist, along with various secret techniques and even divine techniques, forbidden spells, if intentional investigation is initiated, an ordinary person can hide no privacy.
If Shen Hex were an ordinary person, then hiding just couldn't be helped, anyway, ordinary people's privacy doesn't have much value.
But he is not an average person, whether it's the peculiarity of being a Transmigrator, or his upcoming development plan, there is need of a force to protect one's privacy to prevent divination, predictions, spying and monitoring.
In this regard, Saint Walker's Qiankun Righteous Qi has a great advantage, though presently Shen Hex can't large-scale slay karma-bearers yet, in the mid-term there's much potential, even able to join the empire, legitimately take on those Evil God Cultists, development efficiency far exceeds Emperor Dragon Qi of Martial Arts Ancestor.
What, Dragon Slayer?
This profession is not even within consideration.
Although its effect is strong, potential is great, even able to target the empire's most powerful ultimate profession—Emperor, but considering the Human Empire's power, Shen Hex doesn't believe he can let this profession develop right now.
The real world, Human Empire, is both a great support and a great hindrance for him, everything must be considered first.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Shen Hex chose "Saint Walker" as his Tier Three profession.
"Successfully employed!"
"Professional Talent [Static Posture] retained successfully!"
"Professional Talent [Killing Life and Cutting Karma] retained successfully!"
"Professional Skill [Yuan-Devouring Skill] retained successfully and strengthened!"
"Professional Skill [Xingyi Fist] retained successfully and strengthened!"
"Professional Skill [Herbal Scripture] retained successfully and strengthened!"
"..."
Advancement completed, both talents retained, all skills further strengthened.
Shen Hex gathered his thoughts, examining the profession panel again.
Martial Ancestor (Shen Hex)
Profession: Saint Walker.
Professional Rank: Tier Three Level One.
Professional Talents: Static Posture, Killing Life and Cutting Karma, Saintly Walk Without Regret.
Professional Skills: Xingyi Fist (Nourishing Form and Intent, Righteous and Majestic, Exorcism)
Professional Skills: Yuan-Devouring Skill (Consuming a Bull a Day, Strengthen Body, Heavenly Righteous Qi)
Professional Skills: Herbal Scripture (Doctor's Benevolent Heart, Immune to All Poisons, Exorcism and Healing)
Professional Items: Slaying Karma (Can Be Sacrificed for Refinement)
General Skills: Omitted.
...
Looking at the various data on the career panel, Shen Hex nodded in satisfaction.
Over the years, besides governing national affairs, his main focus has been on martial arts cultivation and learning various skills.
Martial arts cultivation needs no further explanation, as it is currently his primary source of power. As for skill learning, as an overlord level cosmic civilization, the Human Empire has plenty to offer for his learning.
Through this world, after hundreds of years of tempering, he not only accumulated a wealth of experience in being and acting but also profoundly understood a truth: Knowledge is power, information is wealth.
In this transmigration, he could transform from a beggar, scantily clad and starving, to the universally respected, invincible Martial Ancestor, partly due to the aid of his career panel, and partly due to the vision and experience as a transmigrator, and the information technology supplied by the Human Empire.
The latter enabled him to establish comprehensive plans for everything, with strong technical support.
For instance, at Liangshan Marsh, he accepted the world's suffering individuals as disciples, first treating their illnesses, then teaching them various knowledge, ultimately forming a powerful collective, engaging in production, farming, storing grain, forging iron, and training soldiers at Liang Mountain and various places...
Among these, the most important is the theoretical information and technical knowledge he collected from the Human Empire, absorbed from various data websites and even online novels. Without these, relying solely on his own information reserve, it would have been impossible to develop such a force.
Therefore, knowledge is crucial, and information is key; they are the fundamental pillars of his Martial Dynasty's achievements.
After establishing the Martial Dynasty and stabilizing the world, he did not relax but continued to absorb various knowledge and technology from the Human Empire through his body and the internet, constantly honing his skills, aiming to make himself a walking encyclopedia.
As the saying goes, mastering mathematics, physics, and chemistry allows one to travel the world fearlessly. He not only aimed to master these but also every discipline the Empire offered and every purchasable technology online. They all became his learning goals, continuously filling himself with knowledge.
Thus, a hundred years passed; he learned many technologies, and although compared with the vast knowledge treasury of the Human Empire, it might be minor, compared to the mundane people, he is already well-versed in ancient and modern times, and being called a grandmaster is not an exaggeration.
This defines Shen Hex's rewards for persevering and striving in this world for over a hundred years.
Before transmigration, he wasn't a significant figure nor possessed professional knowledge, just an ordinary, unspectacular office worker. Without the career panel and the golden finger of imperial technology, not to mention rising, even survival would be a problem.
But now, after accumulating through a world, his vision, experience, and knowledge reservoir have greatly improved, no longer an ordinary transmigrator but a top-tier martial arts master, comprehending ancient and modern, integrating East and West, an era grandmaster.
Even without the career panel, he can stand firm relying on this knowledge, even scheme for the world.
He has completed a transformation, unattainable by ordinary people, from body to mind, brain to technique.
And next...
Shen Hex's mind turned, returning to the real world, calling out the career panel to start utilizing the innate abilities of the transmigrator.
Ten Thousand Dao Fruit!
Consume the professional experience of the transmigrator and refine the profession and road system obtained from Zhuang Zhou's Dream of the Butterfly.
Shen Hex's eyes sharpened, the accumulated professional experience of the transmigrator diminished rapidly, and countless magnificent dream images appeared, fleeting through his eyes like a revolving lantern.
From that ragged, starving beggar, to the madman traversing Jianghu, to the universally respected Martial Ancestor, scenes reappeared in his eyes, turning in his mind, ultimately condensing into a virtually indeterminate Dao Fruit.
Simultaneously, in the dream world, at the cliff top of the East Sea, the young body sitting quietly trembled, hair turning white, flesh cracking, suddenly weathered into dust and scattered into the sea.
...
In the real world, in a hotel, on the bed.
Shen Hex looked at the Dao Fruit in his hand, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Fruit of Ten Thousand Dao
Artifact Profession: Transmigrator.
Item Effect: Ten Thousand Dao Reincarnation.
Item Introduction: A Fruit of Ten Thousand Dao refined by the transmigrator; upon use, can directly reincarnate, acquiring the professions and road systems within the Dao Fruit. Currently refined are Tier One Profession [Martial Artist], Tier Two Profession [Mad Hero], Tier Three Profession [Saint Walker].
Fruit of Ten Thousand Dao, successfully refined.
With it, Shen Hex can open a second profession, attending high school as a [Martial Artist].
What, Saint Walker?
That requires reaching Tier Three, the Fruit of Ten Thousand Dao, though it has refined the entire career road, cannot directly acquire the highest profession, but must start anew, leveling step by step, merely ensuring the road is set, free from failure.
Though somewhat unfortunate, Shen Hex isn't a greedy person; he has already gained ample rewards in this transmigration, obtaining another Tier Three profession directly would be unreasonably powerful for a transmigrator.
Starting anew, then let's begin anew, Martial Artist can practice martial arts while Mad Hero can utilize resources. With his methods, as long as properly managed, returning to Tier Three is seemingly effortless.
Swallowing the Ten Thousand Dao Fruit into his stomach, the second profession [Martial Artist] was generated, Shen Hex stood up, looking at the garbage scattered around and the nearly full toilet, shaking his head, getting out of bed to clean.
As for hotel service, better not seek trouble; after all, the mess is self-made, nothing to be bothered about.
