High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

The breeze at the pavilion in the middle of the lake is very gentle.

After a few cups of spirit wine, the shadowy creature's tail could no longer wag, and it lay half-lying on the stone table, its scales glowing with a slightly intoxicating purplish-red.

Chen Tianling was still relatively sober.

He simply leaned the spear against the pillar and slowly sipped his cup.

Chen Yi and the others stood ramrod straight, only their eyes showing a hint of relaxed smiles.

Chen Yuan leaned against a pavilion pillar and looked up at the sky for a while.

A few wispy clouds were pushed along by the wind, slowly obscuring the sun before slowly dispersing again.

The sunlight fell on the lake surface, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, like someone flipping a light switch in the sky.

"Comfortable."

Chen Yuan let out a long breath and slowly stretched.

He turned his neck, and the joints in his shoulders and neck made a soft cracking sound, which could be heard very clearly in the quiet pavilion.

"Okay, you've rested enough."

Chen Yuan withdrew his gaze and looked at the empty wine pot on the stone table.

"I still have some important business to attend to."

He paused.

"You can do whatever you want, stay in the manor or wander around Jade Flower Star if you want, just don't reveal your true cultivation level."

"I need to go into seclusion for a few more days to integrate the Sky-Stabilizing Pearl into the Myriad Treasures River."

Chen Tianling immediately put down his wine glass and nodded, saying, "Understood."

Chen Yi also clasped his hands in a fist salute: "Don't worry, boss, we will definitely keep a low profile."

Youying raised his head from the stone table, his eyes swaying blurry with drunkenness.

"Boss, are you going into seclusion again? You just came out less than an hour ago."

"Alright, you can do your thing now."

Chen Yuan laughed and cursed, then said no more.

He glanced at everyone one last time, a thought suddenly forming in his mind.

The figure vanished from the pavilion in an instant.

Only a very faint spatial ripple remained in place, like the surface of water after being hit by a pebble, which quickly dissipated.

Youying sat up straight, leaning against the stone table, and sighed as she looked at the spot where Chen Yuan had disappeared.

"The boss has been working too hard these days."

He rubbed his face, trying to suppress the last bit of drunkenness.

"If it were me, having just broken through to such a high level, I would have to lie down for at least half a month."

Chen Tianling stood up and gripped the spear back in his hand.

"The stronger the leader is, the less we can afford to hold him back."

He looked at Chen Yi and the others.

"I estimate that it won't be long before the boss takes us back to the Cloud Ripple Immortal Realm."

"When the time comes, I'll settle my score."

A sharp glint flashed in Chen Yi's and the others' eyes at the same time.

"I've been waiting for this for a while."

Chen Er replied in a low voice.

The lake outside the pavilion rippled gently in the wind, and several small fish leaped out of the water before splashing back down.

.........

Inside the meditation room.

Chen Yuan's figure stepped out of the void, his feet just landing on the warm jade board.

The indoor temperature was comfortable, and the remaining spiritual energy had faded to the point of being almost undetectable, leaving only a very light, cool jade-like scent.

"Let's begin."

He sat down cross-legged, and a thought occurred to him.

Two beams of light shot out from his body at the same time.

Wanbao River unfolded first, like a luminous galaxy stretching across the entire training room.

In the river.

The chilling glint of the Four Godslayer Swords, the sharp edge of the Dawnbreaker Spear, the cold arc of the Star-Shattering Bow, the thick light of the Mysterious Yellow Bell, the eerie glow of the Soul-Capturing Bell...

The phantom images of countless treasures floated and sank in the Milky Way, like countless stars twinkling at the bottom of the river.

The aura emanating from the entire Wanbao River is much stronger than it was a month ago.

Chen Yuan glanced at it and smiled with satisfaction.

"You're already this strong."

He sighed softly.

"Once all the treasures are upgraded to the highest-grade Venerable level, their power will increase several levels further."

"By then, even if I face a peak Supreme Realm expert head-on, I will have ample confidence."

Chen Yuan withdrew his gaze and turned to look at another beam of light.

The Void-Stabilizing Pearl hovered silently three feet in front of him.

The dark blue bead was no bigger than a fist, but its surface was covered with layers of fine light patterns.

Those light patterns were half transparent spatial ripples and half silvery-white time ripples.

The two forces intertwined, like sealing a small piece of collapsing nebula into a bead.

Chen Yuan stared at it for only a few seconds, and then felt the air around him become thick.

"My darling."

He secretly admired it.

"Spatial blockade and time slowing down—if this effect could truly be perfectly integrated into the Wanbao River..."

"Once the enemy is trapped, they won't be able to escape."

Chen Yuan no longer hesitated and made a hand seal with his ten fingers.

Streams of runic light flew from his fingertips, like tiny golden fish, slowly rotating around the Space-Fixing Bead.

Fusion begins.

Unlike previous fusions with other treasures.

The time laws contained within the Fixed Void Pearl are extremely stubborn, like a slippery loach that, once lured to the edge of the Wanbao River, suddenly breaks free.

"It's definitely not going to be easy."

Chen Yuan raised an eyebrow and quickened the hand seals.

"But it's okay, I'll definitely have you completely under my thumb in a week at most."

He closed his eyes.

My entire being was immersed in the fusion.

Time seemed to be stretched into a thin thread in the training room.

One day, two days, three days.

The light of the spirit lamp never went out, casting a deep and serene shadow on Chen Yuan's profile.

The Milky Way over Wanbao River flows slowly.

The fixed-air bead slowly sank towards the center of the river.

Every inch it sinks creates a ring of transparent ripples on the river's surface.

After the ripples spread, even the light seemed to slow down for a moment where the river flowed...

The morning seven days later.

The light in the cultivation room suddenly went out.

Chen Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.

"It's done!"

He gave a low shout and raised both hands upwards.

Wanbaohe emitted a soft buzzing sound, and the entire Milky Way suddenly lit up.

The Four Godslayer Swords, the Dawnbreaker Spear, the Star-Shattering Bow... all the supreme treasures trembled simultaneously, bursting forth with various colored lights.

And right in the middle of the river.

The Void-Stabilizing Pearl has completely merged into it.

The deep blue bead transformed into a slowly rotating vortex, embedded in the deepest part of the galaxy.

Around the vortex, transparent ripples and silvery white waves spread out in an interplay.

From one end to the other, the entire Wanbao River has an added layer of subtle stagnation.

Chen Yuan stood up, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

"Done!"

He clenched his fist, his tone full of satisfaction.

"Once the Wanbao River is opened up, it will not only seal off the surrounding space, leaving the enemy with nowhere to escape."

"It can also use the time law of the Void-Stabilizing Bead to make the movements of the trapped enemy extremely slow."

"Unless the other party has a deep enough grasp of the laws of time, they shouldn't think they can easily break free."

"At that time... they'll be completely at my mercy!"

He became more and more excited as he spoke, and almost tried it out on the spot.

But the training room was still too small.

Chen Yuan took a deep breath and put Wanbaohe back into the infinite storage space.

"Everything that needed to be done has been done."

He flexed his fingers and slowly walked to the door of the training room.

"After being in seclusion for so long, it's time to go back to Earth and take a look."

Chen Yuan sat down again on the warm jade board.

He closed his eyes and let his mind sink into the depths of his consciousness.

Just like last time, his consciousness sped toward Blue Star along the hidden connection left by the celestial statue.

The starry sea receded rapidly in my perception, and a few breaths later, the azure planet reappeared.

Blue Star.

Outside Luodu City, at the Plaza of the Celestial Gods.

The morning sun had just climbed up from the horizon, like a handful of gold dust sprinkled on the plain.

Dewdrops still clung to the tips of the grass blades, sparkling and dazzling when illuminated by the light.

A considerable number of people were already standing in the square.

There were martial artists and ordinary people.

However, the proportion of ordinary people has decreased significantly compared to the beginning, because Blue Star is currently in an era of rapid growth, and everyone has become a martial artist!

Some people closed their eyes and prayed in front of the statue, while others sat cross-legged on the stone steps in the distance, breathing exercises.

Several young martial artists were chatting in hushed tones.

"I stayed here all day yesterday, but the statue didn't react at all."

"Lord Martial Ancestor is extremely busy; how can he come every day?"

"That's true, but it's worth it even if it's just once."

"Did you see that? There are a few foreign martial artists over there. They arrived before dawn."

"Judging from their appearance, they are even more devout than we are."

Just as the group was talking.

Suddenly, a layer of pale golden light shone on the surface of the statue.

The light emanated from the statue's chest like water, quickly enveloping the entire statue.

"Look! It's lit up! It's lit up!"

A young martial artist suddenly stood up, pointed at the statue, and shouted.

"It's Lord Martial Ancestor! Lord Martial Ancestor has arrived!"

The crowd instantly stirred.

"What? Lord Martial Ancestor has arrived?"

"Hurry, hurry, get there quickly!"

"Damn, I was just about to leave, thank goodness I stayed a little longer!"

Exclamations rose and fell, and the martial artists and civilians who were originally scattered throughout the square were drawn together as if by a magnet.

Outside the cordon in front of the statue, a dense crowd of people was packed together.

Chen Yuan's illusory image slowly coalesced above the statue.

Dressed in white with black hair, he had a slender figure and was surrounded by a very faint halo.

Compared to its last appearance, this time the phantom was more solid, with its features so clear that it almost looked like a real person standing there.

"here we go again."

Chen Yuan sighed inwardly.

"This scene is getting bigger and bigger."

He glanced at the crowd and, as usual, gestured downwards with his hand.

"Don't push."

"I'm standing here, I won't get lost."

The sound wasn't loud, but it rang clearly in everyone's ears.

The crowd quieted down considerably, with only a few barely audible whispers.

Chen Yuan ignored them and looked down to examine himself.

"After breaking through to the Supreme Realm, the power that can be exerted through the Celestial Statue is indeed stronger."

He pondered to himself.

"However, the celestial statue itself is eternally supreme, which is ultimately a limitation."

"It's like drawing water from the sea with a thin pipe; no matter how large the volume, only a small amount will flow through."

"If we really want to take action across the sea of ​​stars, we still need to raise the statue a little higher."

Chen Yuan suppressed his thoughts and was about to say something.

suddenly.

He sensed a slight sway in the space below.

A pale golden light emerged from the ground and rapidly converged in front of the statue.

In the blink of an eye.

A little girl who looked about eight or nine years old appeared before everyone.

Her long, silvery-white hair reached her waist, and her eyes were a pale blue like two bright gems. She wore a pale blue dress.

The hem of her skirt swayed gently in the morning breeze, like a newly opened flower.

"Little Blue".

Chen Yuan chuckled softly.

"You came quickly."

Xiao Lan looked up and sized him up.

"Wasn't it said that you would be in seclusion for several months? You're out so soon?"

She tilted her head, a hint of suspicion in her light blue eyes.

"Could it be that the breakthrough failed?"

She shook her head as soon as she finished speaking.

"No, no, you are Chen Yuan, how could you fail?"

"They must have broken through ahead of schedule."

"Yes, that must be it!"

Xiao Lan kept talking nonstop, like a machine gun.

When the surrounding martial artists and commoners saw her appear, they all bowed and paid their respects.

"Greetings, Lord Will of Earth!"

Xiao Lan turned around and nodded slightly to everyone.

"You are welcome."

"Don't crowd too close, move aside."

She raised her chin like a little adult.

Chen Yuan found it amusing.

"Alright, you can scold people later."

Xiao Lan looked up again and stared into Chen Yuan's eyes.

"So... you're at the Supreme Realm now?"

Chen Yuan nodded, her tone relaxed.

"That's for sure, a true Supreme Realm expert."

He paused, then added a sentence.

"I could knock you out with one punch."

Xiao Lan's eyes widened.

"You dare hit me?"

She puffed out her cheeks, then deflated and raised the corners of her mouth.

"The stronger you are now, the happier I am."

"From now on, I, Xiao Lan, will have a Supreme Realm expert as my backer!"

Chen Yuan was amused by her.

"Then you'd better treat me well."

"Follow me, and I guarantee you'll live a life of luxury."

Xiao Lan scoffed.

"OK."

The two exchanged a few words, and the surrounding crowd gradually relaxed.

Many young martial artists watched this scene with envy in their eyes.

"The relationship between the Martial Ancestor and the Will of Blue Star is really good."

"That's right. When Lord Blue Star's Will was on the verge of collapse, it was only thanks to Lord Martial Ancestor's intervention that he was able to recover."

"How wonderful it would be if one day I could speak with the Martial Ancestor..."

"Stop dreaming, let's break through to Martial Saint first."

The person who was speaking was slapped on the head by his companion and immediately shrank back.

In front of the statue.

Chen Yuan and Xiao Lan chatted for a few more minutes.

"Alright, that's enough."

Chen Yuan stopped joking and became more serious.

"Although I have broken through to the Supreme Realm, I still have some things to finish."

"I came here today just to let you know I'm safe."

He looked at Xiao Lan.

"Please tell Mengyao and the others this message for me."

"Just tell them I've reached the Supreme Realm, and that they can rest assured."

"If there's an emergency, just do it the old way: come find me in front of the statue."

Xiao Lan also suppressed her smile and nodded emphatically.

"clear."

"I'll go tell them right away."

She paused.

"Perfect timing, I need to go back and continue processing those fragments."

"Boluo's corpse hasn't been refined yet."

Chen Yuan nodded.

"Go ahead, thank you for your hard work."

Xiao Lan pouted.

"If you know I'm working hard, come back sooner. Don't always make me, a poor little girl, act as your messenger."

Chen Yuan smiled but did not answer.

The true age of the Blue Star Will is even older than the longest-lived Martial Saint on Blue Star.

She really has the nerve to call herself a "little girl".

His phantom began to fade slowly, and the golden light receded back into the statue like the receding tide.

"I'm gone."

"Please tell Zhou Qing and the others for me."

As the sound faded, the light and shadow completely disappeared.

A chorus of exclamations and discussions erupted in the square once again.

"Lord Martial Ancestor has departed."

"He just said he's reached the Supreme Realm!"

"What is the Supreme Realm?"

"That's a powerful being, even higher than the Eternal God!"

"My goodness, the Martial Ancestor's cultivation speed is too fast..."

"Nonsense, otherwise why would he be called the Ultimate Martial Ancestor!"

Xiao Lan didn't stay in the square for long either.

Her figure transformed into a wisp of pale golden light and silently sank into the ground.

The core space of Blue Star.

Little Blue reverted to her little girl form, sitting cross-legged in the center of a pale blue sea of ​​energy mist.

She closed her eyes and sent out a wisp of her divine sense.

"Everyone, Chen Yuan is back."

"He has broken through to the Supreme Realm, and everything is fine."

"So that everyone doesn't have to worry."

The voice resounded directly in the minds of all the high-ranking members of the Human Alliance.

Deep within the mansion on Longyuan Mountain.

Beneath the two World Origin Trees.

Shadowblade and Netherworld Fiend sat cross-legged on either side of each other, their dark purple and dark red scales gleaming eerily in the shade of the trees.

The two opened their eyes almost simultaneously.

"Master has broken through."

Shadowblade's voice was deep and calm, but his slightly trembling vertical pupils betrayed his excitement.

"Supreme Realm".

Ming Sha slowly uttered three words, his voice hoarse like the friction of iron plates.

"As expected of the master."

Shadowblade stood up and looked up at the World Origin Tree above his head.

"We need to step up our efforts too."

"My master is going further and further away; I can't hold him back."

Ming Sha didn't speak, but simply closed his eyes again, and the black mist around him grew even thicker.

Luodu, the Lin family's training room.

Lin Mengyao was sitting cross-legged in meditation when she suddenly heard Xiao Lan's voice in her mind.

She suddenly opened her eyes, and an irrepressible smile appeared on her beautiful face.

"Teacher Chen has reached the Supreme Realm!"

She stood up from the cushion and walked briskly to the window.

Outside, the morning light was bright, and the old locust tree in the yard was sprouting new buds.

"Teacher Chen certainly did not disappoint."

"The Supreme Realm... is still a long way from us."

Lin Mengyao clenched her fist gently.

"However, I will pursue it."

Dragon Martial Division Headquarters.

Zhou Qing had just put down a document when he heard the voice in his mind and paused for a moment.

"Supreme Realm..."

He leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh.

"Goodness, it hasn't been that long."

"From Martial God to Supreme, a journey that others cannot complete in a lifetime, he completed in just two years."

Zhou Qing shook his head with a wry smile, then smiled again.

"Having you on Earth is truly a great blessing."

He sat up straight again and picked up another document.

"I also need to take care of things on Blue Star so that Chen Yuan has no worries."

The news spread like wildfire among the top echelons of Blue Star.

Everyone knows.

Chen Yuan, the Supreme Martial Ancestor, has already reached the Supreme Realm...
