High Martial Arts: Starting from the Strongest Junior High Student

Chen Shi's expression was solemn.

A power that can be infinitely stacked?

Isn't this what it means to be invincible in the late game?

"Why are you so nervous?" Shi Yuan asked Chen Shi. "Bloodline immortality is a power that can be stacked."

"Really?" Chen Shi was taken aback.

"Isn't it about consuming blood and qi?"

Shi Yuan laughed and said, "Think about it, once your cultivation reaches the limit of Azure Star, there will be no higher sacred fruits for you to eat, and your blood energy absorption efficiency will drop significantly."

"At this point, if you directly pour your blood energy into the Blood Flow Eternal Life, your cultivation level will drop back down. Do you understand?"

Chen Shi asked in surprise, "So according to your logic, all internal energy techniques can be stacked infinitely?"

"What kind of internal energy cultivation cannot absorb blood and qi?"

"The power of most internal skills, like the increase in cultivation level, diminishes in the later stages," Shi Yuan said calmly. "No one has yet seen the limit of Blood Flow Immortality."

"One sun, one moon, they shouldn't be that different!"

Chen Shi nodded slightly, beginning to look forward to tomorrow.

Around 9 PM, some people passed out from drinking. Most of them were Yuanwu Masters. They didn't have a strong metabolism, and their alcohol tolerance was not much different from that of ordinary people, but they had special martial arts techniques to cure hangovers.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, those who were supposed to go back to their rooms did so, while Chen Shi and Zhang Xuexin held hands and decided to go into the city for a stroll.

His current location is the first province of the Northern Continent. The governor's mansion is located at the top of Longhu Snow Mountain. After descending the mountain, you will find yourself in the bustling provincial capital.

After using martial arts to sober himself up, Shi Yuan stood up and said, "I also want to go down the mountain for a stroll. I'll drive the flying car."

After saying that, he took out a five-seat flying car from his storage ring and walked out of the bamboo building.

At this moment, Di Yun, who was enjoying his drink, turned his head, walked up to him, and asked, "Where are you going?"

Chen Shi laughed and said, "I'll go down the mountain for a stroll."

"Do you know the way?" Di Yun frowned.

At the main table, Di Tianzheng looked up and cursed, "Why do you care where he goes? What could possibly happen to Chen Shi in Beizhou?"

Di Yun glanced at him, then patted Chen Shi on the shoulder and said, "Call me if anything happens."

Then, Chen Shi and his group went down the mountain and strolled around the bustling city.

Chen Shidu was stunned.

The mountains and lakes outside the city were covered in snow, but the city itself was warm; the temperature even rose instantly after the car passed through the tollbooth.

"Damn, this temperature is weird." Chen Shi was somewhat surprised.

With one hand on the steering wheel and the other supporting his chin, Shi Yuan said, "All the cities in the Northern Continent have underfloor heating."

Chen Shi's eyes widened. "All the cities?" he asked.

Shi Yuan nodded: "That's right, even the farmers in the mountains are covered. No one will get cold on a snowy day unless they're stupid enough to go outside."

In the passenger seat, Wang Xueyou frowned and said, "That's outrageous? Even in the Beiyang Army, nothing like this happens."

"Even the far north doesn't have that," Shi Yuan chuckled. "Even the far north has a city of this scale. Just the electricity it generates would cost an astronomical sum every year."

"Furthermore, due to tax reforms, local taxes no longer need to be remitted to Zhongzhou, and Zhongzhou generally does not allocate funds to the region, so Beizhou has to fend for itself."

"That's why my master greatly admires your grandfather."

Shi Yuan turned around and glanced at Chen Shi.

Chen Shi drove with the window open, letting the wind blow in, his brow furrowed.

Shi Yuan continued, "Because Beizhou was originally the one with the worst financial situation among all the Nine Provinces."

"Eastern Continent, Southern Continent, and Jiangzhou have excellent geographical locations and abundant resources. Northern Continent doesn't even have farmland. After a snowfall, everything will die."

"Then there's the East, South, and North. Needless to say, they can make a fortune every year just by killing sea monsters. Every sea monster is a treasure trove of money. The far north is also close to the monsters, and they can also earn a fortune from the land monsters every year."

"Only the North Continent."

"It's geographically unfavorable, resource-poor, and not a border region."

Chen Shi's expression was complicated. He wasn't stupid; he could vaguely sense that his family wasn't very wealthy.

Shi Yuan turned around and said, "That's why your uncle is going to Zhongzhou to become an official. It will bring your family a large sum of money every year, at least 10% of the total income of the whole state."

"Di Feng single-handedly supports 10% of the income and expenditure of the Northern Continent."

"Making money this much?" Chen Shi's eyes widened.

Shi Yuan shook his head and said, "It's not picking up money, it's robbing money."

"Your uncle is in danger, that's all I can say."

"What do you mean?" Chen Shi frowned.

Shi Yuan said in a deep voice, "His position is Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission."

"That is, the head of the inspection team."

What kind of place is Zhongzhou?

"The Long family's territory."

"The Long family is the most corrupt."

"Your uncle doesn't do corrupt things, so he can't fit in."

"But there's no other way. Only by embezzling money from Zhongzhou can we afford to support Beizhou."

"It used to be alright; the Di and Long families were both prominent families."

"But now the Di family belongs to the neutral camp, and they are not of one mind with the Long family."

"The second largest province in Zhongzhou can be said to be the second largest province of the human race."

"The provincial discipline inspection commissioner of this province is a very powerful position."

"Can the Long family accept this position being in the hands of an outsider? Not even an outsider, but an enemy!"

"That's why I said your uncle's situation is getting more and more dangerous, understand?"

Chen Shi's expression was solemn.

Shi Yuan sighed and said, "That's why your master's reputation was so bad back then."

"He is the son of the North Continent, but he doesn't care about life or death here at all, which is why your grandfather hasn't seen him for thirty years."

"Child of the Northern Continent, your master is extremely powerful. He ranked second among the younger generation of humans in his year, and that was only because he was a spoiled brat. If your master had been a little more ruthless to himself, he would have been the strongest of that era."

"But you can't really blame your master entirely. If your grandfather had been more open-minded, things wouldn't have escalated to this point. It's hard to say who's right and who's wrong; both sides are to blame."

"Luckily you showed up, so it's not too late."

Chen Shi looked up and said earnestly, "I will repay all of this!"

"Awesome!" Jacky Wong turned his head and gave a thumbs up.

"But don't underestimate the Northern Continent." Shi Yuan turned his head and said, "Although it is poor, it is a strategic location that is fought over by military strategists. It is connected to the land demons to the north, the sea demons to the right, and the inland areas to the south. If any enemy race occupies the Northern Continent, it will be equivalent to seizing the initiative in the war. They can attack or defend as they please."

"Back then, the Emperor raised his banner of rebellion right here."

Shi Yuan's eyes lit up with admiration: "Right across from your house, the mountain over there is called Longhu Snow Mountain, with many peaks. The peak across from you is called Hope Peak. The seven young founding generals gathered there and stood on the top of Hope Peak to swear an oath to the sun, forming an alliance."

"My master said that at that time, there was no life for ten miles in the northern continent. To say that there were cries of agony everywhere was an understatement. You couldn't even hear cries of agony; there were corpses everywhere."

Three hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Shi Yuan parked the car, and everyone got out together. Looking up, they saw tall buildings standing tall, with warm lights illuminating thousands of homes.

"This place has been reborn."

"And what brought all this goodness was not just the Di family, but also the eternal life of blood."

"That surging heat seemed destined to melt all the snow."

"Right?"

Shi Yuan turned to look directly at Chen Shi and smiled, "Young Master of the Northern Continent!"
