High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

Chen Yi transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the pale blue planet.

He deliberately concealed most of his cultivation aura, only revealing the pressure of an early True God.

But even so.

The aura of a True God is astonishing enough in this star field.

In the outer orbit of the planet.

The patrol fleet is on routine duty.

Inside the bridge of the fleet flagship, a middle-aged man in a dark blue military uniform was staring at a scanning screen.

He is Luo Zheng, the patrol captain, with the peak cultivation of Martial Venerable.

On this trading planet, he's already considered a big shot.

Suddenly, the scanning system emitted a rapid alarm.

"Beep beep beep! High-energy reaction detected!"

"Target is rapidly approaching! Energy level... True God level!"

Luo Zheng suddenly jumped up from his chair, his eyes fixed on the screen.

On the screen, a point of light is rapidly approaching.

The brightness of those light spots was frighteningly dazzling.

"A true god-level powerhouse?!"

Luo Zheng's voice even changed tone.

He had been stationed on this planet for over a decade, and the strongest outsider he had ever seen was only at the Martial God level.

He had only seen a true god-level expert once, at the Imperial headquarters.

That kind of being... could kill him with a sneeze!

"Quick! Try to establish communication with them!"

Luo Zheng immediately gave the order.

The communications officer frantically operated the system, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

A moment later, the communication was established.

Luo Zheng took a deep breath, trying to make his voice sound as steady as possible.

"Respected True God-level senior, this is the patrol fleet of Azure Wave Star, a border trade star of the Azure Lan Empire."

"I am Luo Zheng, the patrol captain. May I ask what brings you to Bibo Star, senior?"

His voice was steady, but his hand holding the communicator was trembling slightly.

All the officers and soldiers on the bridge held their breath.

A moment later, a calm voice came through the communicator.

"I'm here to buy a star chart, no ill intentions."

Upon hearing this, Luo Zheng instantly relaxed.

He let out a long breath; his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

"So, you wanted to buy a star map, senior! Welcome, welcome! Azure Wave Star warmly welcomes your arrival!"

His voice was full of relief.

This true god-level powerhouse is just here to buy things, not to cause trouble.

That's good, that's good.

Luo Zheng quickly gestured to his adjutant, signaling him to report the situation immediately.

He then continued to speak respectfully with Chen Yi.

"Senior, although Bibo Star is not large, its commerce and trade are quite developed, so it must have products like star maps."

"Please go directly to Star Harbor. I will inform them to make preparations for your arrival."

Chen Yi's voice came softly.

"Um."

Communication ended.

Luo Zheng slumped into the chair, panting heavily.

"That scared me to death... A true god-level powerhouse! I've never spoken to such a being in my entire life."

He wiped the sweat from his face and turned to yell at the communications officer.

"What are you all standing there for! Immediately inform the Commander-in-Chief! A True God-level expert has arrived; this is a matter of utmost importance!"

.........

Bibo Star, Governor's Office.

Although it's called the Governor's Mansion, it's actually more like a luxurious private estate.

It covers a vast area, nestled between mountains and the sea.

The pavilions and towers inside the mansion are arranged in a well-organized manner, and exotic flowers and plants are planted everywhere.

In the back garden, a huge open-air hot spring pool is steaming.

Beside the hot spring pool, a tall, middle-aged man was lazily leaning against a jade pillow.

He is Li Cangming, the supreme commander of Bibo Star, with the cultivation level of a late-stage Martial Saint.

He looked to be in his forties, with a handsome face and long, dark blue hair draped over his shoulders.

But what's most striking is his eyes.

The pupils of those eyes were vertical, like a snake or a lizard.

This is a unique symbol of the nobility of the Canglan Empire.

Its body is infused with the bloodline of some powerful beast tamer.

At this moment, Li Cangming was enjoying a rare moment of leisure.

In the hot spring pool, a dozen graceful maids surrounded him.

These maids were all stunningly beautiful and possessed distinct personalities.

Some had skin as white as snow, silver hair that floated in the water, and pale purple eyes.

Some of them have stunning figures with curvaceous bodies and faint golden lines tattooed on their wheat-colored skin.

Some are petite and delicate, with a pair of fluffy cat ears and tails that sway gently in the water.

They were all wearing only thin gauze dresses, which clung tightly to their skin after being soaked in water.

The subtly revealed curves are enough to get your blood pumping.

Li Cangming had two women on his left and right, holding a glass of blood-red fruit wine in his hand.

A cat-eared maid is feeding him peeled grapes.

"Commander, would you like one more?"

The cat-eared maid spoke in a coquettish tone, her voice soft, sweet, and cloying.

Li Cangming opened his mouth and bit into the grape, then casually pinched the maid's tail.

The maid let out a soft cry, her face turning as red as an apple.

Several maids nearby giggled, creating a spring-like atmosphere in the hot spring pool.

Li Cangming squinted his eyes comfortably.

"This is life..."

He loves this kind of life the most, eating, drinking, playing, and having fun every day.

Anyway, Bibo Star is a remote and peaceful place, and nothing serious ever happens there.

Just then, a servant rushed in.

"Commander-in-Chief! Urgent military intelligence!"

Li Cangming frowned and waved his hand impatiently.

"What urgent military situation? Is there another argument between merchant ships in the harbor? Why are you bothering me with this kind of trivial matter?"

The servant knelt on the ground, his voice trembling.

"No, Commander! It's a True God-level expert! A True God-level expert is flying towards Azure Wave Star!"

The wine glass in Li Cangming's hand fell to the ground with a clatter.

The bright red fruit wine was spilled all over the ground.

He suddenly stood up from the hot spring, and the languid look on his face vanished instantly.

Instead, his face was filled with shock and seriousness.

"What did you say? True God-level?!"

His voice rose several octaves.

The maids were terrified and scrambled out of the pool.

Li Cangming took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart.

A thought occurred to me.

A set of dark blue official robes flew out of his spatial ring automatically and dressed him neatly.

"Someone! Prepare my steeds!"

At his command, a deep roar echoed from the Beast Taming Garden behind the Governor's Mansion.

A massive, deep blue wolf emerged from the Beast Taming Garden.

The giant wolf was over ten meters tall and covered in dark blue scales.

Its limbs were as thick as pillars, and its claws were as sharp as knives.

The most bizarre thing about it is its tail, which is a completely black snake.

The snake's head swayed slowly at the end of its tail, flicking its scarlet tongue.

This is Li Cangming's natal beast—the Serpent-Tailed Azure Wolf, a peak Martial Saint level creature.

It was a whole realm higher than his own cultivation level.

Li Cangming climbed onto the wolf's back and said with a solemn expression.

"Pass on my order: immediately activate the highest-level reception protocol! At the starport, arrange everything according to the Imperial standards for receiving a royal noble!"

"A red carpet, a guard of honor, and a welcoming salute—none of these can be missing!"

"Also, notify the Vice Governor to come to Starport immediately and make sure to keep that senior in check before I arrive."

"We absolutely cannot slight this god-level being! Anyone who dares to show the slightest disrespect will be skinned alive!"

The attendant nodded repeatedly and scrambled out to relay the order.

Li Cangming rode on the back of the snake-tailed wolf and took a deep breath.

He truly never expected that a true god-level expert would visit his small planet, Bibo.

The entire garrison on Bibo Star combined wouldn't be enough to crush a single finger of theirs.

But then he thought about it again and felt a little relieved.

Bibo Star is just an ordinary trading planet, with nothing particularly valuable.

Unless the other party is completely out of their mind, they won't risk offending the Canglan Empire by robbing us.

The Canglan Empire governs hundreds of star systems in the vicinity. It is a powerful empire with a supreme expert who is almost like a god.

Even a true god-level expert would not easily provoke such a behemoth.

But in any case, proper etiquette must be observed.

This true god senior... must not be neglected!
