High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

downstairs.

Wu Feng had just received the latest battle situation on the western battlefield and Zhao Shanhe's latest orders.

Following the surveillance footage, the car finally stopped at the entrance of the residential area. I looked up in awe at a balcony on the third floor.

After straightening his robes, he knelt down with a thud and said loudly:

"This junior, Wu Feng, has come to pay my respects to Your Excellency on behalf of the Jianghai Inspector!"

"The three million people of Jianghai thank you for saving their lives, senior!"

The voice was extremely respectful, and it echoed throughout the entire neighborhood.

Behind the balcony curtains, Chen Yuan's lips curled into a playful smile.

"interesting."

He stretched his limbs slightly, and his voice came out calmly:

"Come on up."

"Remember to take the stairs, the elevator is broken."

Wu Feng trembled all over, and was so excited that he almost burst into tears.

This martial saint, who pacified a medium-sized celestial cave with a wave of his hand... is willing to see him!

He quickly got up, but dared not use his movement technique. He walked up to the third floor step by step, in a proper and orderly manner.

Standing in front of that ordinary security door.

Wu Feng nervously tidied his appearance three times before gently knocking on the door.

The door opened automatically.

A young voice came from inside:

"Come in, you don't need to change your shoes."

Wu Feng cautiously entered the house, and looking at the environment that came into view, he couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Hiss, a Martial Saint senior lives here? That's incredibly frugal! Is it a unique hobby? He's certainly different from other Martial Saint powerhouses..."

immediately.

When she saw the young man who looked to be no more than twenty years old standing on the balcony, she was completely stunned.

So...young?

I thought I had mistaken someone for someone else.

But next second.

When he sensed the unfathomable, abyss-like aura emanating from the young man, all his doubts vanished!

thump!

Wu Feng knelt down again, his forehead touching the ground.

"Junior Wu Feng pays respects to the Holy One!"

Chen Yuan turned around and looked at him: "Tell me, what do you want?"

"Your Excellency pacified the Heavenly Cave and saved three million soldiers and civilians from suffering. This kindness is immeasurable! The Inspector General has prepared a simple banquet at his residence and earnestly requests that you join us for a chat, giving us a chance to express our gratitude in person!"

He spoke in an extremely humble manner.

Before a Martial Saint, even a Grandmaster is nothing more than an ant.

It was already an immense favor that this senior was willing to open the door to see him.

Chen Yuan did not respond.

His gaze swept casually toward the west of the city, a knowing smile playing on his lips: "No rush, more people are coming."

Wu Feng was taken aback.

Just as he was about to cautiously ask a question, he sensed an aura far exceeding his own rapidly approaching, incredibly fast and very familiar.

It was Zhao Shanhe!

With everything settled on the battlefield in the west of the city, and after confirming that the Heavenly Cave was completely silent and that even the Insect King had been wiped out, Zhao Shanhe was filled with excitement.

After explaining the follow-up, he headed straight here.

My heart is filled with awe.

This senior is not only strong, he not only wiped out the insect swarm with one strike, but he can also enter the Heavenly Cave from a distance and kill all the alien races!

"They seem to be in a hurry," Chen Yuan thought to himself.

The emergence of a newly ascended Martial Saint is enough to shake the entire Great Xia Kingdom.

The inspector himself came.

They just want to build connections, seek protection, or at the very least, become known to others.

After a while.

Hurried footsteps approached, and after obtaining Chen Yuan's permission, Zhao Shanhe pushed open the door and entered.

When I saw the young man in his early twenties on the balcony.

He froze on the spot, his face filled with astonishment.

So young?!

He originally thought that the martial saint senior who made the move was an old monster who had been in seclusion for many years, but he did not expect him to be a young talent!

The same doubts arose in his mind as Wu Feng's.

Is this the son of the Martial Saint?

But next second.

Feeling the immense, ocean-like pressure emanating from the other party, all of Zhao Tianhe's doubts instantly vanished.

You definitely didn't pick the wrong person!

"Thump!"

Zhao Shanhe knelt on one knee and clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"With a mere wave of your hand, Senior pacified a medium-sized celestial cave and annihilated six insect kings. Such divine power is unparalleled in my life! The entire city of Jianghai will forever be grateful for your great kindness!"

Chen Yuan waved his hand: "It's nothing, just too noisy."

Zhao Shanhe was even more shocked.

Killing six Martial Emperor-level Insect Kings and wiping out hundreds of thousands of insect swarms was just "too noisy" in the eyes of this senior?

What a level of skill this is!

He steadied himself and said respectfully.

"Senior, according to the regulations of the Dragon Martial Division, pacifying a medium-sized Heavenly Cave is a great achievement. I have prepared a banquet at the manor and earnestly request that you do me the honor of coming. The carriage is already downstairs. It would be an honor for Jiang Hai if you would be willing to go..."

Chen Yuan glanced at him.

Since he had nothing better to do anyway, he figured he might as well go. His peak Martial Saint cultivation level was his greatest source of confidence.

"Lead the way."

Three words.

This instantly filled Zhao Shanhe and Wu Feng with joy!

"Please go ahead, senior!"

The two quickly stepped aside to lead the way.

Chen Yuan didn't move, but silently thought to himself, "Perfect time to try out the Saint-level movement technique I just acquired, 'Close at Hand, Far Away'."

He took a step forward.

There were no fluctuations in spiritual energy or spatial distortion.

Zhao Shanhe and Wu Feng felt a blur before their eyes, and the scenery around them changed instantly.

It has transformed from a cramped living room into a street-side space at the entrance of the residential complex!

The black luxury car was parked right in front of us, and the driver was standing respectfully beside it, waiting.

The three of them were already standing next to the car!

"This..." Zhao Shanhe was speechless.

He didn't even feel any movement!

Wu Feng's legs went weak. What kind of technique was this? Shrinking the earth to an inch? Spatial teleportation?

Chen Yuan felt secretly pleased.

As expected of a Saint-level movement technique, it arrives in an instant without even stirring the wind.

Zhao Shanhe came to his senses.

He hurriedly stepped forward and personally opened the back door, bowing deeply in utmost humility: "Senior, please get in!"

Chen Yuan calmly got into the car.

Zhao Shanhe then carefully boarded the car from the other side, while Wu Feng tactfully and quickly boarded the escort vehicle in front.

The convoy slowly drove away from the residential area.

The journey was smooth and unobstructed.

All intersections were cleared in advance, and martial artists lined up along the way to guard the area. This was the highest level of reception that Zhao Shanhe had urgently arranged before his arrival.

inside the car.

Zhao Shanhe, who was riding in the same car as the Martial Saint, didn't dare to breathe and cautiously struck up a conversation.

"Senior, the manor has prepared special dishes from Jianghai, as well as my treasured spirit wine, which I have kept for many years. Although it cannot compare to the delicacies of Luodu, it still has its own unique flavor..."

"If you need anything, please feel free to ask, and I will do my best to fulfill your request..."

He speaks with extreme caution.

He was observing Chen Yuan's expression with every sentence.

Chen Yuan closed his eyes to rest, occasionally responding softly, but Zhao Shanhe, as if receiving a reward, became even more respectful.

And they learned Chen Yuan's name...

Not long after.

The convoy drove into a quiet garden area and stopped in front of an antique-style mansion.

The Inspectorate.

Although it was built in a small city like Jianghai, the mansion was quite grand, covering dozens of acres, with pavilions, towers, rockeries and streams, and had a certain charm.

Zhao Shanhe got off the bus first.

He quickly walked around to the back seat, held the car door open, and helped Chen Yuan out of the car, bending down and not daring to look directly at him.

"Senior, please."

This scene.

They were spotted by the martial artists on duty at the mansion gate, and they were all stunned, their eyes wide with shock!

Who is Zhao Shanhe?

Jianghai Inspector, a Martial King level expert, a big shot whose every stomp of his foot makes the entire Jianghai City tremble!

Why is he being so humble and ingratiating towards a young man?!

Who exactly is that young man?!

The unsuspecting martial arts guards dared not utter a sound, even their breathing was soft, their curiosity about Chen Yuan's identity was extremely intense.

The banquet was held in the most luxurious banquet hall in the mansion.

The table was laden with delicacies, all top-grade spiritual ingredients for tempering the body and enhancing one's skills, their aromas irresistible.

The two sat down.

Wu Feng and his other confidants stood by.

Zhao Shanhe personally poured wine for Chen Yuan: "Senior, this is my treasured 'Crimson Cloud Brew' that I've kept for decades. It's slightly beneficial for martial artists to nourish their meridians. Please."

Chen Yuan picked up his wine glass and took a sip.

The taste was alright, but the spiritual energy it contained was negligible to him.

After several rounds of drinks...

After enjoying his meal, Chen Yuan glanced at Zhao Shanhe and suddenly said, "You've been stuck at the mid-stage of the Martial King realm for at least five years, haven't you?"

Zhao Shanhe's hand trembled, and a little of the wine he was offering to Chen Yuan spilled out.

He quickly replied, "Senior has keen insight! This junior was indeed stuck for five years and three months."

Chen Yuan nodded slightly and casually offered a brief suggestion.

"It seems I wasn't wrong. You have a solid foundation, but you're too fixated on brute force. The way of the Martial King is to combine strength and gentleness, and only by guarding your mind can you break through to the next level."

His words were like a sudden awakening!

"By balancing strength and gentleness, and guarding one's heart, one can break through barriers..."

Zhao Shanhe was jolted awake, his mind cleared instantly, and the barrier that had kept him stuck in the mid-stage of the Martial King realm for many years shattered!

boom!

A surge of spiritual energy coursed through my body.

The aura surged, and the oppressive power of a late-stage Martial King instantly spread and swept across the entire banquet hall.

The spiritual energy surged, causing the tables and chairs to tremble!

Wu Feng and his confidants stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

One sentence... and the Inspector General broke through a minor realm?!

Is this... is this the vision of a Martial Saint?!

Zhao Shanhe felt the surging power within him, and his eyes reddened.

He was so excited that his whole body trembled.

"I've broken through! I've actually broken through to the late stage of Martial King!"

She suddenly stood up, knelt down, and kowtowed heavily to Chen Yuan with tears in her eyes.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior!"

"Your words, senior, have awakened me from my dream; I will never forget this kindness!"
