High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

The moonlight bathed Longyuan Mountain in a peaceful glow.

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away in the Eastern Kingdom of Japan, the martial arts masters of the Kingdom of Amelica were having a headache over Chen Yuan's words.

"Not one can be missing..."

The white-haired old man looked at the message McAllen sent back and gave a bitter smile.

"This Chen Yuan really doesn't give me any face at all."

"Then what do we do?" someone asked.

The white-haired old man remained silent for a long time before finally sighing.

"What should we do? Do as instructed."

"Within three days, gather all the items and send them to the Great Xia Kingdom. Also, select the secret realm as soon as possible and hand it over to the Xia Kingdom."

"As for those two from Japan... I'd appreciate it if you could make the trip and bring them over."

He looked at McAllen and a hint of apology flashed in his eyes.

McAllen's lips twitched, but he still nodded.

"I see."

He smiled bitterly to himself.

To capture the remaining two martial saints of Japan? That's no easy task.

But I can't not go.

If it cannot be delivered to the headquarters of the Xia Kingdom's Dragon Martial Division within the stipulated time, Chen Yuan will definitely cause trouble!

......

Three days later, on the morning.

Dragon Martial Division Headquarters, Main Entrance Plaza.

A pure silver SSS-class fighter jet flew in from the eastern horizon and landed steadily on the tarmac.

The hatch opened.

McAllen came out from inside.

He didn't look well; there were obvious dark circles under his eyes, indicating that he hadn't slept well for the past three days.

Two fully armed warriors from the Kingdom of Ariadne followed behind, escorting the two men off the fighter jet, one on each side.

Those were the only two martial saints left in Japan.

One is in the early stage, and the other is in the middle stage.

Both of them were injured.

In the beginning, his left arm was bandaged, his face was covered in bruises, and he walked with a limp.

The one in the middle period was even worse.

His body was bound by several specially made sealing chains, and there was dried blood at the corner of his mouth. His eyes were full of resentment and humiliation.

Judging from the battered armor, McAllen clearly went to great lengths, employing some underhanded tactics, to take down these two men.

But in the end, he was the winner.

Zhou Qing was already waiting in the square.

He glanced at the two Japanese martial arts masters, then at McAllen, and nodded.

"Thanks for your hard work."

McAllen's lips twitched, forcing out a smile that looked more like a grimace.

"It's not hard work...it's what I should do."

His voice was dry and harsh; anyone could tell how insincere he was.

Zhou Qing didn't care.

He waved.

The Dragon Warriors behind him stepped forward and took the two Japanese Martial Saints from the hands of the people from America.

Their mouths were sealed shut, and they could only make "ooh" sounds, their eyes filled with despair.

They still can't understand it.

How did the plan get discovered when it was so well-hidden?

Moreover, the Kingdom of Amelica, which they had always relied on, had betrayed them so ruthlessly.

"Chief Zhou, regarding the handover of the garrison..." McAllen forced himself to stay alert and began to discuss business.

"Our people are already packing up and will all withdraw from Japan within three days. Your people can come and take over at any time."

"And those spirit crystals as compensation..."

He paused, a hint of pain flashing across his face.

"Thirty million high-grade spirit crystals and ten thousand top-grade spirit crystals are already on their way and should arrive by tomorrow afternoon at the latest."

"I've also brought the list of the selected secret realms."

He took a document from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Qing.

"All our people have been evacuated; you are ready to take over at any time."

Zhou Qing took the document and flipped through it.

One large celestial cave, five medium-sized caves, and ten small caves.

Although each of the secret realms on the list is located in a very remote area and is considered one of the worse ones among those of the same level.

But they are all genuinely high-quality resource locations.

The Kingdom of America has really gone all out this time.

"Okay, I understand." Zhou Qing put the documents away.

McAllen visibly relaxed when he saw that Chen Yuan had put away his things, and felt relieved that Chen Yuan wasn't there today.

Otherwise, they'll definitely start finding fault after seeing the list of secret realms they've provided!

They all anticipated what the other person would say: "Are you trying to fool me with this run-down place?"

"Well... Chief Zhou, shall I take my leave now?"

As he said this, his eyes unconsciously darted around, as if to make sure that some terrifying person hadn't appeared.

Zhou Qing saw this and found it amusing.

But it didn't show on her face.

Take care.

McAllen felt like he had been granted a pardon and turned to walk toward the fighter jet, at a speed more than twice as fast as when he came.

He didn't want to stay in this place for even a minute longer.

Fighter jets take off.

It quickly disappeared into the horizon.

You've accepted the list of secret realms and have no objections, so you can't cause any more trouble for Amelica now...

Zhou Qing stood in the square.

He shook his head as he watched the fighter jets disappear into the distance.

Then he picked up the communication ring and sent a message to Chen Yuan.

"Chief Chen, the matter has been taken care of."

"The spirit crystals will be delivered by tomorrow afternoon at the latest. We've already received the list, and we'll begin arranging the handover process now."

After sending the message.

He turned to look at the two Japanese martial arts masters who were being held captive.

"Take him away and send him to the military headquarters for a thorough interrogation."

"yes!"

......

Longyuan Mountain, the Holy Venerable's Residence.

Chen Yuan had just gotten up and was sitting at the stone table in the front yard eating breakfast.

The shadowy figure lay on the opposite side, with a small mountain of spirit fruits piled up in front of it, its mouth full of juice as it ate.

The Holy Decree at his waist vibrated slightly.

Chen Yuan picked it up and saw that it was a message from Zhou Qing.

He glanced at it and a smile crept onto his lips.

"It's done? That was pretty quick."

He carefully put away the Holy Decree, picked up his teacup, and took a sip.

A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

"So obedient? I thought they'd put up a fight..."

He put down his teacup and sighed.

to be frank.

He had actually been hoping that America would refuse.

If they refuse, and he manages to rally a few more allies to fight against them, then he will have a legitimate reason to visit them one by one.

At that point, it won't be something that can be dealt with with just this little bit.

"I never expected that Amelica, who was once known as the strongest force on Earth, would be so cowardly..." Chen Yuan shook his head, his tone full of regret.

"It seems we still need to reduce the quantity."

Youying raised his head, half a spirit fruit stuffed in his mouth, and asked indistinctly, "Boss, what's missing?"

Chen Yuan glanced at it: "Compensation."

"How many?"

"Thirty million high-grade spirit crystals, ten thousand top-grade spirit crystals, and more than a dozen secret realms."

Shadow's eyes lit up: "So many?!"

"More of what?" Chen Yuan glanced at it. "Less."

Youying paused for a moment, then nodded in deep agreement.

"The boss is right! We must ask for more next time we have this opportunity!"

"Um."

Just then.

[Ding! Detected that the host's fearsome reputation has intimidated all forces on Earth. The hidden achievement 'Fearsome Reputation Shakes the Earth' has been achieved!]

Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up.

His fearsome reputation intimidated all forces on Earth?

He killed those martial saints from the Kingdom of America and the Kingdom of Japan, forcing the Kingdom of America to obediently pay compensation. After this news spread, other forces on Earth were indeed shocked.

The few restless neighbors around the Great Xia Kingdom have become as quiet as quails these past few days.

I didn't expect this could trigger a hidden achievement.

[Bonus Reward: Saint-Grade Supreme All-Purpose Avatar Core x1]

【"Myriad Manifestations Avatar Core: After blood recognition, it can create an energy avatar with 70% of the host's combat power.

The clone has no self-awareness and is directly controlled by the host's consciousness. It can exist for a long time without consuming the host's spiritual power.

Note: If the core is destroyed, the clone will dissipate and will be unable to cultivate. The clone's level is bound to the host's own level, and the current level cap is the peak of Martial Saint.

A hint of surprise flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes after reading the introduction.

Isn't this just a Nine Netherworld clone that can exist for a long time without consuming its own spiritual power?!

Moreover, it is a peak Martial Saint clone that possesses all of his martial arts skills and techniques and is completely controlled by his consciousness!

This means he can have an extra version of himself anytime, anywhere!

Moreover, this clone doesn't get tired or consume spiritual energy; as long as its core doesn't break, it can keep fighting.

"Great stuff! Great stuff!"

Chen Yuan was overjoyed.

He had previously killed the Shadow Devourer and several martial saints from Japan on his own, actually trying to see if he could trigger a hidden achievement like "massacre".

I was quite disappointed when it didn't trigger.

Unexpectedly, a new path opened up before us!

Those martial saints have at least fulfilled their final purpose.

"receive!"

A thought crossed my mind.

A crystal core the size of a fingernail appeared out of thin air in the palm of the hand.

The crystal core is pale gold in color, with mysterious patterns flowing across its surface. When held in the hand, it exudes a warm and gentle energy.

Chen Yuan examined it for a moment.

He stretched out his finger and forced out a drop of blood onto the crystal core. The blood was quickly absorbed the moment it hit the surface of the crystal core.

The crystal nucleus glowed with a soft golden light.

Then it transformed into a stream of light and disappeared into Chen Yuan's palm.

A strange connection was established in Chen Yuan's heart.

He could sense that the core had recognized him and was quietly waiting inside his body to be awakened at any moment.

"come out."

Chen Yuan's mind stirred.

A figure appeared out of thin air in front of him.

She has the exact same height, the exact same appearance, and even the exact same eyes as him.

And he was wearing a black outfit made of energy.

The shadowy figure was so frightened that it dropped its spiritual fruit, staring wide-eyed at the "Chen Yuan" in front of it.

"Boss?! Two bosses?!"

Chen Yuan ignored it and focused on sensing the clone.

This feeling is amazing.

It's like having an extra body; he can control two bodies to do different things at the same time.

The clone looked at its own palm, clenched its fist, and then relaxed it.

His cultivation level is at the peak of Martial Saint.

It's not like the Nine Netherworld Clone, where the power is dispersed and the Martial Saint is at the mid-stage!

Although it was still much weaker than the original body, that power was still terrifying.

and.

The clone raised its hand and threw a punch.

The Sacred Ruins Suppressing World Fist!

The force of the punch exploded in the courtyard, creating a shockwave, but it did not cause any damage to the surrounding area.

Because Chen Yuan stopped using his strength at the last moment.

"Not bad." Chen Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

The clone inherits all martial arts skills, techniques, and combat experience.

Moreover, because it is an energy body, the clone will not feel fatigued unless the core at the heart location is destroyed.

Otherwise, we can keep fighting!

This Myriad Manifestations Core is practically a perpetual motion machine.

When retracting the clone, the core is inside the user; when releasing the clone, the core is inside the clone's body.

Chen Yuan withdrew his clone and leaned back in his chair, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.

"This is a good deal."

......

at the same time.

Luoyang University of Technology, Medical Room.

Jiang Fan.

Or rather, the being that occupied Jiang Fan's body was lying on the bed.

His "injuries" have almost healed.

He should be able to be discharged today if things go according to plan.

But he didn't rush to leave; instead, he continued to lie there, pretending that he still needed to rest.

Because he was waiting for news.

To be precise, he was waiting for news from the Dark Abyss.

Shadow Eater's actions have always been very discreet, and with the secret help from Japan, there shouldn't be any problems.

But these past two days he's felt uneasy.

It seems like something big has happened.

He picked up the communication ring from the bedside table and opened the news page.

next second.

His pupils suddenly contracted.

"The fall of four martial saints from the Eastern Kingdom is suspected to be related to Chen Yuan, the national guardian saint of the Great Xia Kingdom!"

"The Kingdom of Amelica announces the withdrawal of all its troops stationed in Japan, to be taken over by the Kingdom of Great Xia!"

"Chen Yuan creates another legend, killing three Martial Saints and one ninth-tier alien in three minutes!"

"The Kingdom of Amelika has paid a huge sum of compensation to the Great Xia Kingdom, including 30 million high-grade spirit crystals, 10,000 top-grade spirit crystals, and more than ten Heavenly Cave Secret Realms!"

"......."

One news item after another hit Jiang Fan's heart.

His hands began to tremble.

Shadow Eater has been exposed?!

How is that possible?!

Dark Abyss's plan was flawless, and the Eastern Kingdom had also been doing a perfect job. How exactly did the Great Xia Kingdom discover it?

He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

Keep reading.

When he saw the detailed report of Chen Yuan killing four Martial Saints in three minutes, his pupils contracted again.

three minutes.

Four martial saints.

One of them is a mid-stage Martial Saint.

This strength...

Jiang Fan's expression turned extremely ugly.

Even in the ruins of countless worlds, those who could do this would be extremely rare.

And Chen Yuan.

On this planet where spiritual energy has only recently begun to recover, they actually managed to do it!

"Just who exactly is this Chen Yuan?"

He muttered to himself, his voice so low that only he could hear it.

"His rate of improvement is completely abnormal."

"They have too many methods at their disposal: formations, alchemy, combat... each one is ridiculously powerful."

"Could it be...?"

A glint of light flashed in his eyes.

"Did he also inherit the legacy of some powerful being?"

The idea took root in his mind as soon as it appeared.

Indeed, the ruins of countless worlds contain the legacies of many ancient powerhouses, legacies that even they themselves would find difficult to locate.

If the human race on Earth were lucky enough to obtain one of these shares, they could indeed gain terrifying strength in a short period of time.

But the methods Chen Yuan displayed... were far too comprehensive.

It's impossible for a typical inheritance to cover so many fields at the same time.

unless......

The level of that inheritance is frighteningly high!
