High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

Chen Yuan withdrew his hand.

He turned and strode toward the floating island.

He walked on air.

The white robe that the Celestial Armor had conjured swayed gently in the wind.

With each step taken into the void, a pale golden lotus of light blooms beneath one's feet.

The light lotus begins to bloom.

One by one, they vanished after his feet left.

When it dissipates, it transforms into countless tiny specks of light, falling from the sky like golden snowflakes.

The ten members of the Holy Dragon Guard were arranged in a neat row.

Follow behind him.

The shadowy creature flicked its tail and followed closely behind.

Before leaving, he winked at the kneeling monsters.

The Crimson Cloud Demon Emperor quickly lowered his head, not daring to look directly at the demon.

The white jade staircase retracted automatically after Chen Yuan stepped onto the island, and the entire aerial palace slowly disappeared into the clouds, leaving only a faint golden halo.

Above and below the ruins.

The kneeling crowd remained seated for a long time.

I don't know how much time passed.

The Crimson Cloud Demon Emperor was the first to straighten his stiff body. He looked around at the scattered corpses of low-level demon beasts.

Then he glanced at the faint outline of the immortal palace in the sky.

He swallowed.

His voice still had a lingering hoarseness.

"Human immortal lords do not interfere in the affairs of the Cangxuan Realm..."

"I, Hongyun... will from now on avoid humans whenever I see them. At least until this immortal lord leaves, I will never provoke him."

The giant eagle demon king transformed himself from human form back to his original form and then back to human form again before he could barely stand, nodding repeatedly.

"All I want to do right now is go back to my cave and bury my head under my wings for a few days."

Liu Qingsong stroked his chin, which he had just plucked a small tuft of beard from, and sighed.

"Xiao the Madman, oh Xiao the Madman..."

"You've fought your way through the entire Cangxuan Realm your whole life, but in the end, you couldn't even catch a single breath from someone else."

"Remember this in your next life: a true immortal must not be insulted..."

The swordsman in green knelt on the ground.

The ancient sword at his waist was still trembling slightly; it had sensed the aura from before and had not yet calmed down.

He pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword and whispered.

"Stop chirping. We can't even understand how they're attacking, what can you possibly say?"

The independent cultivators gradually got up.

He shook the broken jade amulet fragment in his hand.

"To kill a demigod in one breath... Are all the immortals in the upper realm this strong?"

Another rogue cultivator patted him on the shoulder.

"Why are you worried about this? You're not even a terrestrial immortal yet. It's like you're fantasizing about finding a huge sum of spirit stones, but you're already planning how to spend them before you've even found any."

"......"

The demon emperors and demon kings did not make things difficult for the humans who had gathered in the mountains after Chen Yuan left.

Instead, they released them all intact, signifying that they would not interfere with each other's affairs in the future.

Although that Supreme Immortal Lord has made it clear that he will not interfere in the affairs of their Cangxuan Realm, he is still of the same race as the human race!

It would be ridiculous if killing these people angered them and led to my own death.

.........

The news spread very quickly.

On that very day, countless birds, bees, and teleportation stones spread the news of what had happened in the Black Wind Mountains.

The Imperial Palace of the Great Yu Dynasty, the Golden Hall of the Great Yan Dynasty, the City Tower of the Northern Yan Dynasty, the Yunlan Sect, the Wuji Sword Sect, and the Ghost King Sect.

Even the main altar of the Demon God Palace received an urgent secret report.

Many people didn't believe it until they read it a second time.

Then most of the Cangxuan Realm was in an uproar.

.........

And this moment.

That celestial palace suspended high in the sky.

Chen Yuan sat cross-legged in the white jade pavilion in the middle of the lake, with a pot of freshly brewed spiritual tea in front of him.

The tea leaves were naturally brought from Blue Star; they wouldn't even look at the highest quality spiritual teas in the Cangxuan Realm.

The shadowy figure lay prone on the grass outside the pavilion.

Its tail swished back and forth leisurely.

With a spiritual fruit brought from Blue Star still dangling from their mouths, Chen Yi, along with Chen Er and Chen Shi, stood neatly in front of the pavilion.

"Boss."

Chen Yi clasped his hands in a fist salute and spoke.

"As you instructed, we have marked all the factions that have produced Ascended beings."

Chen Yuan picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Um."

Let's begin now.

"Don't make too much of a commotion, just take it away quickly."

Chen nodded.

He turned around and gestured to Chen Er and Chen Shi.

Ten people disappeared into the pavilion at the same time.

.........

The Great Yu Dynasty.

Forbidden area of ​​Wuji Mountain Range.

This is the back mountain of the Wuji Sword Sect.

It is also the secret realm of the sword tomb left behind by the immortal who ascended to the mortal world nearly a thousand years ago.

Dozens of Sword Sect elders take turns guarding the outer perimeter of the forbidden area, while the inner perimeter is further protected by hundreds of sword formations, each capable of easily annihilating a Celestial Realm martial artist.

Even a terrestrial immortal wouldn't fare well.

The deepest part of the Sword Tomb.

There is also a final barrier that is said to have been set up by the ascended beings themselves, which makes even half-immortal realm experts envious.

now.

Above the restricted area.

Chen Yi's figure appeared silently.

He stood on empty air, his green robe swaying gently in the night breeze.

His gaze swept over the layers of interwoven protective sword formations below.

"It's all here."

He said something in a low voice.

Then he raised his hand.

A golden power emanated from his palm, transforming into countless imperceptible golden threads that silently pierced through all the sword formations.

Before the sword formations could even trigger an alarm, they were disintegrated layer by layer by the golden threads.

From the outer perimeter to the inner perimeter.

From top to bottom.

Peel it off layer by layer, like peeling an onion.

When Chen Yi entered the depths of the forbidden area.

The Sword Sect elders guarding the forbidden area were still meditating, and none of them sensed anyone entering.

Whether it's the perception of a half-immortal or the sword heart of a terrestrial immortal.

Before this golden thread that had touched a trace of the power of law, it was as fragile as a piece of paper.

In the deepest secret chamber of the Sword Tomb.

A jade tablet, about half a person's height, stands quietly on the stone platform.

The surface of the jade tablet is covered with ancient inscriptions.

A faint flash of light would appear every few breaths.

Chen Yilu stood before the jade tablet.

His gaze swept over the inscriptions.

He didn't recognize these inscriptions.

However, the spiritual energy fluctuations it emitted were indeed quite different from those of the native spiritual creatures of the Cangxuan Realm.

It carries a trace of extremely faint power of the laws of the upper realm.

This is the means of contacting the upper realm.

Chen Yi did not touch it directly.

Instead, he raised his hand and set up a spatial barrier around the jade tablet, severing all connections between the jade tablet and the outside world.

Then he turned around and spread his divine sense.

They swept the entire forbidden area.

All the Sword Sect elders who were still meditating outside the Sword Tomb came into his perception.

Many of them had sword tokens hanging from their waists and sword-shaped marks from the Wuji Sword Sect affixed to them, and their cultivation levels ranged from the Celestial Realm to the Land Immortal Realm.

There was also a true demigod, who kept his eyes closed in the innermost secret chamber, his entire body radiating sword energy that was as solid as a tangible substance.

"Done."

Chen Yi did not alert anyone.

Even with his current cultivation level, if he stood in front of these people, they wouldn't be able to detect him at all, as long as he didn't want them to.

No unusual features were found in front of the jade tablet.

.........

At the same time, the Great Yu Dynasty.

Royal forbidden area.

Chen Er stood in a secret underground palace deep within the forbidden area, the walls of which were inlaid with hundreds of fist-sized luminous pearls.

The entire secret temple was illuminated as if it were daytime.

In the center of the secret hall.

A stone altar several meters high stood quietly, its surface covered with ancient array patterns related to the bloodline of the Great Yu royal family.

A palm-sized, ancient jade tablet floats in the center of the array.

Chen Er raised his hand and cut off the space around the jade tablet, isolating it along with the jade tablet into an independent barrier.

Then, using spiritual power, a fake one was created and placed back in its original position.

.........

The Great Yan Dynasty, the Huo Family Ancestral Temple.

Chen San stood in the main hall of the ancestral temple, at the deepest part of the ancestral hall.

In the very center of the main hall.

It enshrines a communication jade tablet that is almost identical to the one in the secret chamber of the Sword Tomb.

immediately.

Chen San used the same method to isolate the jade tablet into an independent barrier.

Yunlan Sect, Medicine God Valley.

And two other ancient families, whose members had also ascended to immortality over the millennia, were also included.

Chen Wu, Chen Liu, Chen Qi, and Chen Ba, who were in charge of them, acted almost simultaneously to isolate all the altars that needed to be isolated.

The remaining Chen Jiu and Chen Shi were not idle either.

They also unearthed every single one of the remnants of those rogue cultivators who had once ascended to immortality, as well as the cave dwellings and ruins left behind by those old monsters.

Cut off the spiritual energy from all magical artifacts that could be used for communication, and take away all the key related people.

From start to finish, it took no more than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

The entire Cangxuan Realm.

All forces that had produced ascendants, and all people and things that might have connections with the upper realm, were thoroughly searched.

And those sects and dynasties that have never produced an ascendant.

For example, the Ghost King Sect, the Demon Subduing Sect, and the Beast Emperor Palace.

They didn't even know what had happened.

The people in the sect were still cultivating, eating, arguing, and sleeping as usual.

I didn't notice anything.

.........

A celestial abode in the sky.

On a chair in the white jade pavilion by the lake, a small, antique bronze mirror stands quietly.

The edges are covered with densely packed spatial inscriptions.

The mirror surface shimmered.

You can vaguely see endless space extending layer upon layer inside the mirror.

The Supreme Treasure, the Divine Mirror.

Now it has come in handy again.

Chen Yi's figure appeared first in front of the pavilion.

Next came Chen Er, Chen San, Chen Si...

In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, all ten people returned.

They stood neatly in front of Chen Yuan, clasped their hands in a salute.

"Boss."

Chen Yi stepped forward.

"All related communication altars, jade tablets, and relics have been isolated within an independent barrier, and all key targets have been captured by the Mirror of Conferred Gods."

Chen Er and Chen Shi nodded at the same time.

Chen Yuan put down his teacup.

"They didn't leave any loose ends, did they?"

Chen Yi shook his head.

"no."

"No alarms were triggered during the entire process, and no one had time to send any messages."

"They don't even know who took them away."

Chen Yuan nodded slightly.

"Well done."

He stood up and walked to the Mirror of Deification.

A ripple of light appeared on the mirror's surface, reflecting the scene of the white misty space within.

Each person imprisoned was separated into different areas of white mist, unable to see each other.

Everyone looked bewildered and terrified.

I don't know what happened, or where I am.

Some people tried to break through the spatial barrier, and many others continued to attempt it.

But after realizing it was useless, most of them quieted down.

Chen Yuan raised his hand and poured a stream of divine power into the Mirror of Gods.

The divine power transformed into a pale golden light curtain, enveloping all those who were imprisoned.

The light barrier did not harm them.

It left only a very faint spatial imprint on each person.

This mark will not affect their cultivation or life, but it will be present if anyone tries to make contact with the upper realm.

No matter what means are used.

Whether it's a communication talisman, bloodline connection, or soul sacrifice.

The markings would immediately sever the connection and send out an alarm, which he would then sense.

Only after doing all this did Chen Yuan withdraw his hand.

Then let Chen erase their memories and put them back in.

He did consider killing them all; the dead are the safest.

But with the existence of bloodline connection, he was genuinely afraid that if he struck here, the upper realm would immediately know that something had happened.

So keep it closed for now.

Let's wait until we understand the details of the upper realm before making any decisions.

And those human warriors and demon beasts.

Even though his disguise as the "Supreme Immortal Lord" had temporarily quelled the situation and the means to isolate him from the upper realm had been arranged.

But we still need to figure out the true situation of this star system as soon as possible.

And Chen Tianling.

He must find him as soon as possible.
