In the game "High Martial Arts," players start with the blessing of the Martial God.

"Nine Luminaries Mystic Heaven Blade?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Ming's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but glance at Luo Zhao.

The latter simply nodded slightly, then reached out and made a grasping motion, saying, "Watch closely! This strike!"

A long sword, forged from willpower, landed in Luo Zhao's hand, and Ji Ming stared at it intently.

"boom!"

His will was like fire, and the imagery of birth, death, and the infinite spread throughout the world. A dark cloud appeared in the sky. Luo Zhao lightly touched the tip of his knife and moved his feet slightly, like a god dancing, playing a song of life and death!

"Mysterious Heaven. Floating Life Dance!"

Like a heavenly sound, the destructive blade of light transformed into a domain and fell, targeting the character struggling desperately in the golden furnace. It represented a divine power of the [Omniscient Curse].

While it may seem insignificant to His true form, in a place like Shirakawa City, it would certainly be unstoppable!

"kill!"

Luo Zhao scoffed, and endless blade light bounced, each one seemingly possessing sentience. They converged and unleashed a devastating strike!

"Whoosh!"

The golden furnace that had trapped the characters vanished abruptly, but what awaited Him the next moment was a dancing ocean of destruction!

"Boom! Bang!"

The character tried to shine brightly, seemingly wanting to resist, but the destructive intent carried by the blade's light was too strong, and the character was inevitably worn away and shrunk.

The house was torn apart, and a strong gust of wind swept in. Ji Ming couldn't help but take two steps back, but was then firmly grabbed by Luo Zhao's gentle yet powerful hand.

"This...is it resolved?"

Ji Ming was stunned for a moment, looking at the tadpole-like characters that had vanished into nothingness. At the same time, he felt the torrent of knowledge that had been trying to invade his mind suddenly recede, and he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"certainly!"

Seeing the admiration in Ji Ming's eyes, Luo Zhao smiled proudly, "Eight seconds, just right!"

"hiss!"

Looking down at the ground below, which looked as if it had been plowed through, and the houses that had been razed to the ground, Ji Ming gasped. Was this the strength of a top expert?

Fortunately, Yun Dan Fang had been abandoned for a long time; otherwise, such destructive power would have been unbearable for ordinary people. Yun Dan Fang would truly be gone from now on.

As Ji Ming looked down, Luo Zhao's hands, which were behind his back, trembled, and an unnatural paleness appeared on his face.

That was close! I almost let this kid underestimate me!

When Ji Ming looked up, Luo Zhao had already regained his calm demeanor.

He could have used a less energy-consuming method, but if he didn't show off, how could he have the face to teach this kid in the future?

Ji Ming remained unfazed by the [Omniscient Curse], while Luo Zhao struggled with all his might, his face turning red from the effort.

If word gets out, where will he put his face?

Despite this, Luo Zhao's gaze softened further, feeling pleased with Ji Ming's actions and trust in him.

Just as Ji Ming was about to say something, a sudden wave of dizziness washed over him. Fortunately, Master Luo caught him, or he would have fallen and been smashed to pieces.

"Are you alright?"

Luo Zhao quickly landed on the ground and asked with concern.

"fine!"

Ji Ming smiled. Too much knowledge was flooding into his mind. Although it was all harmless, he still needed to organize it properly, otherwise he could forget about cultivating in the future.

Now, he feels like his head is about to explode whenever he thinks about something, and the two seconds left for a sudden realization can only be wasted helplessly.

"Instructor Luo!"

Suddenly, a loud shout came from the horizon, and a man wearing tiger-head armor rode a square seal.

"I am Chen Zhengfang, a centurion of the Tiger Might Army, and I have come here specifically to provide support!"

Chen Zhengfang clasped his hands in a salute, and looking at the mess in the field, he felt a lingering, chilling aura that made his eyelids twitch.

"No need, this has been taken care of," Luo Zhao said calmly.

Chen Zhengfang swallowed hard and asked respectfully, "May I ask what happened here?"

Luo Zhao glanced at him. "Nothing much, General Chen. How's the situation inside the city?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhengfang recalled for a moment, his eyes filled with shock and reverence. "The Heavenly Demon Sect is in turmoil. Six fourth-tier demon envoys have arrived, and even two late-stage fourth-tier beings attempted to unleash a demonic calamity in Baichuan City. However, Mayor Fang has suppressed them all, leaving only a few demon followers who have scattered and fled. The Tiger Might Army is currently searching for them."

Having said that, he cupped his hands in a respectful gesture, "I never imagined that Mayor Fang would be a martial artist at the Jade Liquid Realm!"

The shock lingered in Chen Zhengfang's eyes. Before the six fourth-tier demon envoys could even begin their killing spree, Fang Yuan had already appeared and captured and killed them like chicks.

Thinking of that scene, a hint of insecurity appeared in his eyes. Was that really the strength that an ordinary fifth-level cultivator should have?

Why would someone like that become the mayor of Shirakawa City?

I'm afraid that if he joined the Tiger Might Army, he could command an army and conquer all directions.

"Okay, that's fine then."

Upon hearing this, Luo Zhao simply nodded calmly, then helped Ji Ming up, saying, "My student's mental energy is too depleted, I'll take him back first."

Chen Zhengfang was taken aback, his heart filled with astonishment. Seeing the concern in Luo Zhao's eyes, and realizing that Ji Ming was merely a mortal martial artist, a thought struck him, and a jade bottle appeared in his hand.

"If that's the case, I have a Spirit-Nourishing Pill here. It's mild and can be taken even by those in the mortal realm."

"Oh?"

Luo Zhao paused slightly, thought for a moment, and nodded. "Then thank you very much, General Chen!"

Chen Zhengfang was overjoyed. He took two steps forward, opened the container, and poured out a spirit pill with a ring of emerald green patterns to feed Ji Ming.

Ji Ming hesitated for a moment, then opened his mouth and took the medicine after seeing Master Luo nod. "Thank you, General Chen!"

"Yes, let's go. General Chen, please wait. We should hurry and search for the remaining Heavenly Demon disciples to prevent them from disturbing the people."

"Instructor Luo is right!"

Chen Zhengfang bowed and watched Luo Zhao and the other person leave, sighing inwardly, "Two dragons have come from outside the ordinary Baichuan City!"

……

On the road

Ji Ming asked curiously, "Master Luo, is Mayor Fang really a Jade Liquid Martial Artist?"

A fifth-rank official is a big shot in the entire East China Sea Province.

He had met Mayor Fang Yuan twice and knew that he seemed to have some unclear relationship with Master Luo, but he never expected that he would be such a powerful person.

"Fifth tier?"

Luo Zhao shook his head. "Don't ask questions you shouldn't. Get some rest when you get back!"

He looked at Ji Ming, seemingly with a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a feeling of mixed emotions, often including regret or anticipation), "You will also have the opportunity to become a strong person like Fang Yuan in the future."

The trip was thrilling but safe, and it also allowed him to see Ji Ming's unparalleled potential. Perhaps he could raise his expectations a bit.

"After you get back, organize the knowledge that the [Omniscient Curse] forcibly gave you, but remember not to try some things casually."

Luo Zhao's words carried a warning and a heavy tone. Ji Ming hurriedly nodded; he wasn't the type to court death.

"Chen Zhengfang's Spirit-Replenishing Pill is quite good; otherwise, you would probably have to wait a while before you can begin your cultivation," Luo Zhao sighed.

Ji Ming's eyes flickered slightly after hearing this, "General Chen, he..."

Luo Zhao waved his hand, "His strength is average, but he's quite shrewd. Don't worry, he won't owe you any favors, and he won't treat this as one."

Ji Ming nodded, asked no further questions, and silently returned to Qingyun Residential Area.
