High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

The Star Luo Federation's arrest warrant exploded like a bombshell throughout the Cangming Star Region.

Deep within the palace of the Dark Empire.

A middle-aged man dressed in a black dragon robe sat on the throne, holding the bounty notice in his hand.

He is the emperor of the Dark Nether Empire, a peak True God, known as Nether Abyss.

Beside him.

Several important officials of the empire stood on either side.

"Three True God Spirit Crystal veins, five sets of tenth-tier cultivation techniques, ten True Treasure-level treasures, plus the friendship of the Star Luo Federation."

Mingyuan tossed the bounty poster onto the table, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

"That old fellow Situ Zhen is really desperate this time. Since he became the commander of the Xingluo Federation, I have never seen him offer a bounty of this magnitude."

The Imperial Intelligence Minister clasped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, our spies infiltrated the Star Luo Federation have reported that there have been frequent mobilizations within the Star Luo Federation recently, resulting in the loss of at least several True God-level powerhouses."

"The exact number has been blocked by them, but it is speculated that there are definitely more than just one or two."

Ming Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly: "Mid-stage True God? A mid-stage True God could make Situ Zhen offer such a bounty?"

He gave a cold laugh.

"The iron plate that the Star Luo Federation has kicked this time is probably much tougher than they themselves say."

He paused, then waved his hand: "Pass down the order to send three hunting teams into the buffer star field. They must find this person before any other forces."

"If we can capture them alive, we'll send them to the Star Luo Federation for the bounty, and then catch them off guard when they're weakened."

"If we can't capture him alive, it's not a loss to offer his head as a reward."

.........

Silvermoon Federation, Parliament Hall.

Dozens of councilors gathered together, and the details of the bounty order from the Star Luo Federation were displayed on a holographic screen.

An elderly councilor with white hair pushed up the auxiliary quantum computer on the bridge of his nose and sighed, "Three mid-stage True Gods, and it is said that there was also a late-stage True God, all of them were killed by this one person."

"The Star Luo Federation suffered heavy losses this time, no wonder they offered such a bounty."

Another young councilor frowned and said, "Mid-stage True God? How could a mid-stage True God simultaneously kill so many experts of the same level, and even a late-stage True God?"

"Is the Star Luo Federation concealing some crucial information?"

The white-haired senator shook his head: "No matter what the Star Luo Federation is hiding, this bounty is real."

"Three spirit crystal veins, five sets of tenth-tier cultivation techniques, and ten true treasures—even with our vast Silver Moon Federation, we can't possibly ignore such a large fortune."

"Send two elite teams into the buffer star field. There's no need to force a kill. Finding that person's whereabouts is fine. Sell the information to the Star Luo Federation, and you can get a lot of resources in return."

.........

Starry Sea Freedom Alliance, Alliance Leader's Hall.

A group of powerful individuals dressed in various styles sat around a round table.

Most of the members of the Free Alliance are independent cultivators, and their information is not as readily available as that of the major powers, but the bounty on this wanted poster is simply too tempting.

A burly man with a full beard slammed a wine jar on the table and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Fifty million top-grade spirit crystals! And ten true treasures! I've never seen so many treasures in my life! Want to take this job?"

A gaunt old man next to him sneered.

"What? Do you know how many True Gods that person killed in the Star Luo Federation? According to reliable sources, at least seven! Seven True Gods! Among them was a late-stage True God! What makes you, a mere early-stage Martial God, think you can compete?"

The burly man with the thick beard choked for a moment, but still stubbornly said, "There are so many of us in the Freedom Alliance, we could overwhelm him with sheer numbers, right?"

"Besides, it doesn't have to be a head-on confrontation. Setting traps, arrays, poison—what methods can't be used? The Star Luo Federation only cares about paying; they don't dictate how to arrest people!"

.........

Buffer zone.

Near the ruins where the Poison Scorpion Star Thieves were wiped out.

A medium-sized warship slowly sailed by, its hull bearing the insignia of the third-ranked pirate group in the Buffer Starfield.

Inside the bridge of the warship, a one-eyed middle-aged man was staring at a wanted poster on a holographic screen.

He was the leader of this group of space pirates, nicknamed "Lone Wolf," and possessed the cultivation level of a True God in the early stages.

Lone Wolf licked his chapped lips and said, "A huge bounty... If we can get this, we won't have to live in this godforsaken buffer zone anymore."

"With this bounty, brothers, we can buy as many planets as we want!"

One of his underlings swallowed hard. "Boss, that's a ruthless guy even the Star Luo Federation wouldn't dare mess with. Our numbers... are we even enough to fill his teeth?"

Lone Wolf slapped him on the back of the head: "Who said we were going to fight head-on? Our job is just to find people!"

"Finding his whereabouts and selling the information to the Dark Empire or the Silver Moon Federation could make us a fortune!"

A glint of greed flashed in his eyes.

"Besides... we know this buffer zone very well."

"No matter how strong that guy is, he's still an outsider. When it comes to understanding this place, can he compare to us locals?"

"Tell the brothers to be alert and spread out their spies. Don't let the other families get there first; those who are closest to the source will have the advantage!"

As the wanted notice spread, the entire buffer zone was in an uproar.

Pirate groups, mercenary groups, bounty hunters, and even some reclusive cultivators all sprang into action upon hearing the news.

Some wanted to team up, some wanted to hunt alone, and some even started a business selling information.

The buffer star field was instantly bustling with activity. Everyone was searching for the same target—Chen Tianling.

........

At this moment, the person they had been searching for was sitting cross-legged on that desolate planet.

Chen Tianling held a communication device he had seized from the Poison Scorpion Pirate Gang in his hand, the screen displaying the details of the Star Luo Federation's arrest warrant.

The bounty amount, the wanted level, his image, and his energy characteristics were all listed clearly.

After reading it, he casually tossed the communication device aside, a disdainful smile playing on his lips.

"Three mineral veins, five sets of cultivation techniques, and ten genuine treasures—that's quite a grand gesture," Chen Tianling shook his head.

"But the Star Luo Federation is being too naive to think they can find me with these ants."

He stood up and stretched his limbs.

The divine power within his body had been fully restored to its peak state, and the dark gold armor shimmered faintly under the starlight.

Despite being wanted by the entire star system, he remained completely calm.

Unless the eternal true god personally intervenes, no matter how many true gods come, they will not be able to stop him.

The bounties offered by the Star Luo Federation were nothing to the Eternal God.

Those who are truly powerful.

They wouldn't go to the trouble of hunting him down for something so trivial.

As for the indigenous forces in those buffer star regions, they were even less worth mentioning in his eyes.

"It's time to go."

Chen Tianling activated his concealment technique, and in a flash, he disappeared into the void.
