High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

Several days passed.

Luodu City, the Lin family mansion.

Deep within the highest-level cultivation chamber, Lin Zuyao, already prepared, sat cross-legged, with countless rare and precious materials he had accumulated over decades in his quest to break through to the Martial Saint realm laid out before him.

Three thousand-year-old snow ginseng plants, two dragon scale fruits...

Each and every one of them was a treasure he painstakingly searched for, using all the resources of his entire clan.

"All of these combined only give me a 30% chance of success," Lin Zuyao said with a wry smile.

His eyes then burned as he looked at the jade box in his hand, for this was the key to whether he could break through to the Martial Saint realm in one fell swoop!

The jade box was opened.

A pure white pill with golden cinnabar patterns floating on its surface lay quietly.

The fragrance of cinnabar filled the air.

The fatigue from days of seclusion has dissipated somewhat.

"Breakthrough Pill... 60% probability..."

Lin Zuyao's fingers trembled slightly, and his voice choked with emotion: "I will never forget the kindness of Venerable Chen!"

All in all, the probability of breaking through reaches a terrifying 90%. If he fails to break through, he might as well just smash his head against a wall and die!

"It will definitely succeed!"

Without further hesitation, Lin Zuyao took a deep breath and put the pill into his mouth.

The elixir melts instantly upon entering the mouth.

It transformed into a warm current that flowed into the limbs and bones.

at the same time.

Lin Zuyao activated his cultivation technique, and the rare and precious materials in front of him were transformed into pure energy, which he absorbed frantically.

boom!

Inside the secret chamber, spiritual energy surged like a tide!

half a month later.

On this day, dark clouds suddenly covered the sky above Luodu City.

Strangely, golden rays of light shone through the dark clouds, layer upon layer, forming visible vortexes of spiritual energy.

The entire martial arts community in Luodu was alarmed!

"This is... someone breaking through to Martial Saint?!"

"A celestial phenomenon! A celestial phenomenon! Our Great Xia is about to gain another Martial Saint!"

"Look in that direction...it's the Lin family! The Lin family patriarch succeeded!"

Countless people rushed out of their homes and looked up at the sky.

The golden light grew brighter and brighter, eventually transforming into a pillar of light that shot straight into the sky!

boom!!!

A terrifying aura erupted from the depths of the Lin family mansion, sweeping across the entire city!

The might of the Martial Saint terrifies all directions!

Although it was far less spectacular than the phenomenal events that occurred when Chen Yuan broke through, it was still enough to stir the hearts and minds of all the martial artists in the city and make their blood boil!

"The Martial Saint! It really is the Martial Saint!"

"Our Great Xia has gained another Martial Saint! Those alien races in the Heavenly Caves are in for a rough time!"

"The Lin family is about to rise!"

The crowd cheered, and the martial artists were thrilled.

Meanwhile, countless people in the mansions of various powerful families wore complex expressions, some envious, some jealous, but most filled with awe.

From this day forward, the Lin family will no longer be one of the "Nine First-Class Families," but a true "Holy Clan"!

Even if he is only at the early stage of Martial Saint, he is enough to crush all Martial Venerables!

The Lin family mansion, a secret cultivation chamber.

Lin Zuyao slowly opened his eyes, golden light flashing in them, his aura as vast as the sea, completely different from half a month ago.

Early stage of Martial Saint! He did it!

"Hahahaha!" Lin Zuyao laughed loudly, his laughter carrying the release of decades of suppressed emotions.

"Forty years! Forty years! I've finally taken this step!"

The laughter made the secret room vibrate.

He got up and pushed open the door to the secret room, where the Lin family members had been waiting for a long time.

Lin Wei, who was at the head of the group, had slightly red eyes and led the way in bowing.

"Congratulations, Grandpa, on breaking through to Martial Saint!"

"Congratulations, Ancestor!!!"

Behind them, hundreds of members of the Lin family shouted in unison, their voices filled with ecstasy and excitement.

Lin Zuyao strode out and raised his hand to help.

"Arise! Arise!"

Looking at his many descendants and this familiar mansion, he was filled with emotion.

When his gaze fell on Lin Wei, a deep sense of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

"Wei'er," Lin Zuyao said softly.

"You did very well. If you hadn't decisively sided with Saint Chen, and if Saint Chen hadn't bestowed that Breakthrough Pill upon me, I would probably have had no hope of ever reaching the Saint Realm in this lifetime."

Without the help of the Breakthrough Pill, only he himself knows how difficult it would be to break through to the Martial Saint realm.

Lin Wei quickly replied.

"It's all thanks to the great blessings of our ancestor; I'm just a granddaughter..."

"No need to be modest," Lin Zuyao waved his hand.

"Go, prepare generous gifts. I will personally go to Longyuan Mountain to express my gratitude to Saint Chen."

"Yes!" Lin Wei, who shared the same idea, accepted the order and turned to make arrangements.

Lin Zuyao looked up towards Longyuan Mountain with a solemn expression.

"Lord Chen... the Lin family will forever remember this kindness."

Just now, at the very moment Lin Yaozu broke through to the Martial Saint realm.

Dragon Abyss Mountain, the ninth floor of the Holy Venerable's Cultivation Tower.

Chen Yuan was immersed in cultivation, his spiritual energy surging like a tide, and he had already consumed more than half of the more than one million high-grade spirit crystals during his cultivation.

suddenly.

The system's mechanical voice rang in his mind, instantly waking him from his cultivation state!

[Ding! Detected that the host has bestowed a treasure to help others break through. The hidden achievement "Giving roses leaves a lingering fragrance" has been achieved.]

[Bonus Reward: 10000 Superior Spirit Crystals!]

[The reward has been sent to your unlimited storage space. Please check it.]

"?"

Chen Yuan opened his eyes, a hint of doubt flashing in them.

How did I suddenly achieve a hidden achievement?

He extended his senses and instantly perceived the strange phenomenon that had just formed in the direction of Luodu City, as well as the aura of a newly born Martial Saint.

"Has that old man from the Lin family really broken through?"

Chen Yuan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of surprise.

He gave Lin Wei that breakthrough pill simply because he liked her and did it on a whim.

I never expected that this would trigger a hidden achievement!

"This works?"

Chen Yuan laughed.

With a thought, he probed his storage space with his divine sense.

In one corner of the space, ten thousand fist-sized, crystal-clear spirit crystals, with what appeared to be flowing starlight inside, were neatly arranged.

Each one radiates a breathtakingly pure energy.

Top-grade spirit crystals!

Chen Yuan's eyes lit up.

In this world, spirit crystals are divided into four grades: low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade.

Low-grade spirit crystals are common, mid-grade spirit crystals are precious, and high-grade spirit crystals are rare.

And top-grade spirit crystals... are extremely rare!

They are extremely rare and not available on the market at all.

An ordinary martial artist might never see one in his entire life, and even a Martial Saint might not have many in his possession.

Because the value of top-grade spirit crystals far surpasses that of high-grade ones!

The spiritual energy contained in a single top-grade spirit crystal is equivalent to that of a hundred high-grade ones!

Moreover, it is extremely pure, with almost no impurities after absorption, which is very beneficial to cultivation.

the most important is.

Top-grade spirit crystals can be used to set up holy-level arrays, refine holy-level divine weapons, and serve as a catalyst for holy-level elixirs...

Each one is a strategic treasure!

The Dragon Martial Division's national treasury holds only a little over 30,000 top-grade spirit crystals, treasured for decades.

Even with his authority, he could only withdraw a few thousand at most at once.

And he got ten thousand coins in one go!

"I'm rich!" Chen Yuan grinned.

With a thought, he took out a thousand top-grade spirit crystals.

Splash!

A thousand crystal-clear, top-grade spirit crystals appeared out of thin air and piled up into a small mountain on the ninth floor of the cultivation tower.

In an instant.

The spiritual energy concentration in the entire cultivation tower increased tenfold!

The energy emitted by those top-grade spirit crystals was as pure as the most abundant spiritual energy in the world; just taking a breath of it made one feel refreshed all over!

"This feels... amazing!"

Chen Yuan took a deep breath and felt his pores open up.

He thought for a moment and then took out another thousand coins.

Two thousand top-grade spirit crystals were piled together, their spiritual energy so dense it was almost tangible, forming a faint spiritual mist inside the tower!

If those martial saints outside saw this, they would be heartbroken and vomit blood!

Top-grade spirit crystals are invaluable treasures used for setting up formations, refining weapons, and refining pills!

Who would be willing to absorb it directly?!

That's too extravagant! That's too wasteful!

But Chen Yuan didn't care. He had ten thousand top-grade spirit crystals. Why not use them to absorb and save them for breeding?

"Continue your training!"

Chen Yuan sat cross-legged and began circulating his internal energy.

Two thousand top-grade spirit crystals shone brightly at the same time, and a massive amount of pure spiritual energy surged into his body like rivers flowing into the sea!

This time, the cultivation speed was more than ten times faster than before!

Chen Yuan was so engrossed in it that he forgot about time...
