High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

Chen Yuan's lips curled into a cold smile.

The Nine Forms of Dawn, Form One!

Without moving his body, he merely flicked his wrist, and the Dawnbreaker Spear drew a strange arc in the air.

"clang!"

When Yamada Masao's katana was struck by the tip of the spear, his entire arm went numb, and the blade almost flew out of his hand!

The spear thrust continued, the butt of the spear sweeping horizontally!

"Bang!"

Sakurai Miwa was sent flying, sword and all, coughing up blood!

Chen Yuan turned and held the gun barrel horizontally in front of him.

"boom!"

The martial saint in his early stage slammed his palms onto the spear shaft, causing his own tiger's mouth to split open and sending him flying backward!

After three moves, all three retreated.

Chen Yuan didn't move an inch from beginning to end.

Masao Yamada gripped his numb hand, his eyes filled with horror!

He had known all along that Chen Yuan was very strong.

He had heard of the strongest person on Earth, the powerful figure who killed the Netherworld Demon Lord at the peak of the ninth rank, and other such titles countless times.

But hearing about it is one thing.

Facing it in person is another matter entirely!

He didn't even see how the shot was fired.

too fast.

It was so fast that his eyes couldn't keep up!

"Continue." Chen Yuan said calmly, holding his gun.

Masao Yamada gritted his teeth and pounced again!

Sakurai Miwa also rushed out of the sea, soaked to the bone and with her armor shattered, but she still refused to give up.

The two worked together seamlessly, one on the left and one on the right.

Launch an attack with all your might!

Chen Yuan stood still, the Dawnbreaker Spear in his hand as if it were alive.

Pick, stab, sweep, smash, point, chop...

Every shot was perfectly timed!

Three minutes later.

Sakurai Miwa's body lay on the ruins not far away, and the other two Japanese martial arts masters were also floating motionless on the sea.

All three martial arts masters from Japan perished in less than three minutes from start to finish!

The Lord of Shadows trembled all over, his vertical pupils filled with despair.

It didn't dare to make a move just now; it didn't even have the courage to attack in front of Chen Yuan.

That human martial arts master is simply a monster!

Chen Yuan, carrying a gun, walked over the gravel to the Lord of Shadow Devourer.

The tip of the spear was pressed against its brow.

The cold metallic touch made the Shadow Devourer's scales stand on end.

"No...don't kill me!"

Its sound is sharp and piercing.

"You can't kill me! If you kill me, those possessed people in your Xia Kingdom will never be able to return to normal!"

It roared, a glint of madness flashing in its eyes.

"Those energy entities all split off from me! When I die, they will dissipate along with me! Those people will never wake up!"

Zhou Qing's expression changed.

This threat hit their weakest spot.

Of the officials and ordinary people in Luodu City who were under control, eighteen have been cured, but there are still many more.

If the Lord of Shadows dies, will those people really never wake up again?

He subconsciously looked at Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan's eyes remained calm, even carrying a hint of mockery.

His Eye of Void had already seen the specifics.

You want to threaten him?

"A boring trick."

Chen Yuan spoke coldly, pushing the spear tip forward slightly, piercing the Shadow Devourer's scales, and dark purple blood seeped out.

"You think I don't know?"

"When you die, those energy bodies that split off will also die, but the person who was possessed will only lose control and will not die with you."

"The host will regain consciousness once the energy body dies."

He lowered his head.

Looking down at the Shadow Devourer's terrified vertical pupils.

"Am I right?"

The Shadow Devourer's pupils suddenly contracted!

"How...how did you know?!"

Its voice was trembling; it was completely panicked.

How could this Martial Saint of Xia Kingdom know this secret?!

It originally intended to use this as leverage, since these people didn't know the specifics anyway. As long as it insisted that "if I die, those people will die too," they wouldn't dare to do anything to it.

But Chen Yuan directly shattered its last trump card!

Zhou Qing breathed a long sigh of relief upon hearing Chen Yuan's words.

His gaze toward Chen Yuan was no longer just one of admiration, but of complete and utter conviction!

Then, the Dawn Spear thrust out.

"puff!"

The spearhead pierced through the skull and emerged from the back of the head, spurting out dark purple blood.

The Shadow Devourer's body stiffened for a second, the light in its vertical pupils quickly dimmed, and then it hung limply on the tip of the spear.

With a flick of his wrist, Chen Yuan flung the corpse away, sending it crashing into the sea and splashing blood everywhere.

......

A hundred feet away.

McAllen saw it all.

From Chen Yuan repelling three Martial Saints in three moves, to killing three in three minutes, and then piercing the Shadow Devourer Lord with a single spear thrust...

He felt his legs shaking.

It wasn't the cold, it was the fear.

"God..." he muttered softly, in a voice only he could hear.

"Is this person...is this person a devil?"

He looked at the bodies still floating on the sea, and his throat tightened.

There are a total of six martial saints in Japan. Today, Chen Yuan killed four of them by himself. The remaining two who didn't come probably won't be able to cause any trouble.

With four out of six gone, Japan was essentially ruined.

But that's not what he cares about most.

His biggest concern was whether he could leave this place alive!

Chen Yuan's gaze had already turned towards them.

McAllen shuddered, feeling as if his heart had skipped a beat.

But he quickly forced himself to calm down, forcing a smile that looked worse than a grimace.

"Chief Chen, you are truly... awe-inspiring."

His voice was a little unsteady, but he tried to remain steady.

"These martial saints from Japan colluded with foreign races and endangered Great Xia; they truly deserved to die! They deserved to die!"

He nodded as he spoke, as if trying to bolster his courage.

"Once I return, I will immediately conduct a thorough investigation of the entire Eastern Kingdom! I will find everyone connected to the Dark Abyss and give Great Xia an explanation!"

"Besides that..."

He swallowed hard and began reciting numbers.

"On behalf of the Kingdom of America, I am willing to make compensation to Great Xia on behalf of the Kingdom of Japan!"

"One large-scale celestial cave realm, five medium-sized celestial cave realms, and ten small-scale celestial cave realms!"

"Plus, thirty million high-grade spirit crystals and ten thousand top-grade spirit crystals!"

After he finished speaking, he carefully observed Chen Yuan's expression.

But in his mind, he was making rapid calculations.

Of the six martial saints of the Eastern Kingdom, four were killed by Chen Yuanqian today, rendering the country utterly ruined.

But this may not be a bad thing for the Kingdom of America; the weaker the Kingdom of Japan is, the more it needs their protection!

In the future, we will be able to hold this country firmly in our hands.

From this perspective, they should even thank Chen Yuan for helping him eliminate all of Japan's high-level combat forces.

McAllen was secretly plotting something, but dared not show it on his face.

Chen Yuan looked at him and remained silent for a few seconds.

Even if the Kingdom of Amelica did not directly participate in the conspiracy between the Dark Abyss Organization and the Martial Saint of the Eastern Kingdom against the Xia Kingdom, it must have tacitly approved of it!

Otherwise, it would never have developed so smoothly.

We have to rip them off!

For McAllen, those few seconds of Chen Yuan's contemplation felt like an eternity.

"not enough."

Chen Yuan finally spoke.

McAllen was secretly pleased. The fact that the other party hadn't directly rejected him but instead complained that it wasn't enough meant there was room for negotiation!

He quickly asked, "So, what does Chief Chen mean...?"

"No need for that trouble."

Chen Yuan interrupted him, saying that these things were not enough and he wanted them all!

"I have three conditions."

McAllen pricked up his ears.

"First, starting today, all troops stationed in Dongying Kingdom by your Amelika Kingdom will be withdrawn and handed over to our Xia Kingdom army. From now on, this place will be taken over by our Xia Kingdom to guard the Heavenly Cave Rift."

McAllen's smile froze on his face, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

Chen Yuan's demands weren't just outrageous; they were outright robbery!

Withdraw all troops? Hand over Japan to the Great Xia?

This is tantamount to taking away the foundation that their Amelica Kingdom has built up in the northeastern Middle-earth over several decades!

But Chen Yuan hadn't finished speaking.

He only mentioned one of the three conditions.

"second."

Chen Yuan continued, speaking in a calm and unhurried tone.

"Of the six saints of Japan, four of them are in cahoots with foreign races, and the remaining two may also have problems."

"After you go back, arrest them both and take them to the headquarters of the Dragon Martial Division of the Great Xia Kingdom for investigation."

McAllen's face darkened further.

This is to wipe out the last martial saint of Japan in one fell swoop.

The problem is, you guys won't let me go?

This is no easy task.

"third."

Chen Yuan held up three fingers.

"Those secret realms and spirit crystals you just mentioned will be provided by your Kingdom of Amelica."

"Within three days, thirty million high-grade spirit crystals and ten thousand top-grade spirit crystals will be delivered to the Great Xia Kingdom. The secret realms have also been selected and are ready for handover."

After Chen Yuan finished speaking, he looked at McAllen and a half-smile appeared on his lips.

"otherwise......"

He didn't finish his sentence.

He glanced down at the Dawnbreaker Spear in his hand; the tip of the spear still bore traces of the Shadow Devourer's blood.

The meaning is obvious.

I'm blatantly robbing you, do you dare refuse?

McAllen felt a chill run through him.

He understood.

Otherwise, Chen Yuan would have gone to America himself to retrieve these things!

But what if things really develop to that point?

Chen Yuan took more than just these!

McAllen felt his blood pressure spike to the top of his head.

Deceiving too much!

These conditions are absolutely outrageous!

Withdrawing troops, handing over prisoners, and paying reparations—what do they take the Republic of America for? A defeated nation?!

When has the nation of America, the strongest power on Earth, ever been humiliated to this extent?!

I wish I hadn't gotten involved in this.

His face turned bright red, his lips trembled, and his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

He wanted to say "no".

But the word got stuck in my throat and I couldn't spit it out.

The moment that word is uttered, the gun in Chen Yuan's hand will pierce his chest in the next second.

In the later stages of his martial arts career, he was a stronger opponent than Yamada Masao.

But in front of Chen Yuan... it was nothing more than a slightly larger insect.

McAllen took a deep breath, then another.

He forcibly brought the blood pressure that had surged to his head back down.

In the end, she didn't dare to resist, and the smile that looked even uglier than a cry forced back onto her face.

"Chief Chen... I can't make such a big decision on my own."

His voice was as steady as possible, but anyone could hear the bitterness in it.

"I need to discuss this with the other martial arts masters in the country..."

Chen Yuan stared at him for a full five seconds.

Then he nodded.

"Can."

He put away the Dawnbreaker gun.

The killing intent emanating from him receded like a tide.

That lazy, casual demeanor was back, as if he wasn't the one who had just killed three Martial Saints in three minutes.

"Three days."

He held up three fingers.

Give me an answer in three days.

After saying that, he waved his hand, indicating that McAllen could leave.

McAllen was granted a pardon.

He forced himself to remain calm.

"Thank you so much for your understanding, Director Chen. I will go back and discuss it with you back home and will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

After saying that, he turned and left.

His figure transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the horizon, his speed more than twice as fast as when he arrived.

McAllen fled for several hundred miles before daring to slow down.

The sea breeze howled.

The wind felt cool on his soaked back.

He released his divine sense to confirm that no one was chasing him before letting out a long breath.

"Damn Japanese..."

He gritted his teeth and cursed under his breath.

"Wasn't it supposed to be extremely well-hidden?! Wasn't it supposed to be absolutely impossible for the Great Xia Kingdom to discover it?!"

He got angrier the more he thought about it.

Back then, those martial saints from Japan assured him with absolute certainty that the Dark Abyss Organization's plan was flawless and would never be exposed.

He then turned a blind eye and tacitly approved of the matter.

The results of it?

Everything's been exposed!

Not only did Japan itself make a mess of things, but it also dragged America into it.

McAllen cursed inwardly.

But the frustration remained.

Because their country of Amelica was also inexplicably about to suffer this unexpected calamity.

Withdraw troops, hand over prisoners, and pay reparations.

Each of the three conditions is more ruthless than the last!

Especially the withdrawal of troops—that was the foundation they had built up in the northeastern part of Central Continent over decades!

Are we just going to hand it over to them like that?

"What kind of mess is this...?"

McAllen sighed, his face ashen.

He looked at his still trembling hands, and then remembered Chen Yuan's eyes, which were as calm as if they were looking at a dead person, and couldn't help but shiver.

It then accelerated and flew towards the Japanese mainland.

We need to report this to the authorities back home immediately!
