High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

Chen Yuan was overjoyed.

The World Origin Tree Sapling—that's exactly what he needs right now!

"receive!"

A thought crossed my mind.

A seedling the size of a palm appeared in the infinite storage space.

The seedlings are entirely green and have only three leaves.

Each leaf is crystal clear, as if carved from jade.

The roots are enveloped in a gentle energy, emitting a faint fluorescent glow, and look so fragile that they could break at any moment.

But the aura emanating from the seedlings gave Chen Yuan a jolt!

It was an energy that was hard to describe.

Gentle, ancient, and profound, it seems to contain the weight of an entire world.

"So this is the power of the world's origin..." Chen Yuan murmured to himself.

The scent washed over his body, making every pore feel relaxed and incredibly comfortable.

This feeling is more than ten times stronger than absorbing spirit crystals!

"nice one!"

With a thought, Chen Yuan took the seedling out of his storage space and examined it carefully in his palm.

The seedlings are very small.

But that strange aura grew stronger and stronger.

Unlike spirit crystals, which require active absorption, it naturally radiates outwards, just like breathing.

"Compared to spiritual power, it's like comparing plain water to fine vintage wine."

Chen Yuan no longer hesitated.

He flashed to the center of the backyard.

He knelt down and dug a small hole in the center of the spirit garden, carefully placed the World Origin Tree sapling in it, and covered it with soil.

The moment the sapling is planted.

"Buzz!"

An invisible wave spread out from the roots of the sapling!

The spiritual energy of the entire backyard began to converge on the sapling.

The top-grade spiritual vein below also trembled slightly, and spiritual energy, as if drawn by something, surged wildly into the sapling's body.

The sapling's leaves swayed gently, as if breathing.

Chen Yuan could clearly feel that the sapling was absorbing the spiritual energy of that top-grade spiritual vein to nourish itself.

In exchange, the primordial power it releases is visibly improving the surrounding spiritual environment!

The concentration of spiritual energy in the backyard is slowly but steadily increasing.

"It's already having such an effect after just being planted. What will it be like when it grows up?" Chen Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

But here's the problem.

If it were only nourished by top-grade spiritual veins, how long would it take for this sapling to grow?

As he was pondering how to "fertilize" the saplings, a dark shadow flew over from the direction of the kitchen.

The shadow shrank to the size of a palm, flapped its wings, and landed on Chen Yuan's shoulder, its small eyes staring intently at the seedling.

"Wow... Boss, the scent emanating from these saplings is so soothing!"

It took a deep breath, and its whole body relaxed, as if it were soaking in a hot spring.

"What kind of treasure is this? Can I have a bite?"

The shadowy figure moved closer, its mouth agape, drool practically spilling out.

Chen Yuan slapped it on the forehead.

"If you dare eat it, I'll eat you."

"Ouch!" Shadowy clutched her head, shrinking back with a pitiful look. "Just kidding, boss, I wouldn't dare eat it..."

"Go away and don't mess with my saplings."

"Fine, I won't fight then..." the shadow muttered, its eyes still glancing at the sapling, but in the end it obediently flew away.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to save face: "I'll go check the kitchen; it seems Butler Zhao is making braised dragonfish..."

Chen Yuan ignored it and silently asked in his mind, "System, how can I make this sapling grow faster?"

"It can be nourished with spirit crystals to aid its growth; special rare and precious materials will have even better effects."

Chen Yuan's eyes lit up.

Can we feed him with spirit crystals? That makes things much easier!

He lacks everything except spirit crystals!

A thought crossed my mind.

Three thousand top-grade spirit crystals and one million high-grade spirit crystals flew out of the storage space, densely hovering around the sapling, completely surrounding it.

The rich spiritual energy emitted by the spirit crystal formed a thin layer of spiritual mist around the sapling.

The leaves of the World Origin Tree sapling sway gently as if expressing joy.

Its roots emerged from the soil and slowly wrapped around the nearest few spirit crystals, beginning to absorb them.

It's not fast, but it's very stable.

This huge pile of spirit crystals will be enough for it to eat for a while.

"Grow up quickly." Chen Yuan squatted down next to the sapling, resting her chin on her hand.

"When you grow up, I will be able to use the power of the origin to hone my physical body to the limit and break through to the half-step Martial God."

He originally wanted to go back to his room and lie down.

But then I thought about it again.

Since I'm just idling around anyway, I might as well try cultivating here.

Chen Yuan sat cross-legged next to the sapling, closed his eyes, and began to try to absorb the power of the world's origin.

"boom!"

A gentle yet powerful energy surged into his body.

That feeling was completely different from absorbing spiritual energy.

Spiritual energy is like water being poured into a cup; once it's full, it overflows.

The power of origin is more like transforming the cup itself, making it bigger and stronger!

Chen Yuan was so immersed in this wonderful feeling that he forgot about time.

......

Time passed day by day.

On Earth.

Based on the information provided by Zhou Qing, each country began to conduct self-inspections within its own sphere of influence.

The process was far from as easy as that in the Great Xia Kingdom.

After all, they didn't have Chen Yuan's Eye of Void Breaking, so they could only rely on manpower to check one by one.

However, some people who had been possessed or controlled by other races were still identified.

When the news spread, high-ranking officials from various countries broke out in a cold sweat.

If it weren't for the Great Xia Kingdom's warning, these time bombs would have exploded at any time.

As for the alien race hiding behind the scenes...

The Polar Bear Kingdom, inside the capital city of Chili Palace.

Ivan sat at a huge oak table, with a densely packed investigation record marked on the electronic map in front of him.

"Still haven't found it?" His voice was rough, filled with suppressed anger.

The intelligence chief on the other side wiped his sweat.

"Lord, we have investigated all the high-ranking officials and military commanders, but that alien race is hiding too well."

"so what?"

Ivan slammed his hand on the table, making the teacups jump.

"Are you planning to keep investigating like this indefinitely? Until the day is gone?"

The intelligence chief shrank back, not daring to speak.

Ivan stood up and paced back and forth in the hall. Suddenly, he stopped and his eyes lit up.

"By the way! The situation in the Great Xia Kingdom was resolved so quickly only because Chen Yuan personally intervened. Why don't we just ask Chen Yuan to take action?"

The more he thought about it, the more sense it made.

Although the relationship between the Polar Bear Kingdom and the Great Xia Kingdom is not particularly good, there have been no major conflicts in recent years.

"I hope they won't refuse if I ask Chen Yuan for help."

"No, we have to hurry!"

Ivan grabbed the communication ring.

"What if someone else gets there first, and Chen Yuan isn't available...?"

......

Japan, the land of cherry blossoms.

In a traditional Japanese house, Chen Yuan's clone was half-lying on a large soft couch.

A faint scent of incense filled the room, and moonlight streamed in through the window, illuminating the tatami mats.

Four beautiful technicians dressed in special costumes knelt beside him and gently massaged him.

The clothes were draped loosely over his body.

Her neckline was slightly open, revealing a section of her fair and smooth neck.

Several slender fingers pressed on his shoulder with just the right amount of pressure.

After a period of busy work, the seals on the three large grottoes in Japan have been fully reinforced.

The defenses of the Abyss Shadow Cave have been completed, the warrior legion has moved in, and everything is on track.

He, the martial saint who was in charge, could finally take a breather.

Over the past two days, he has experienced many local "special services" in Sakura City.

Surprisingly, it was quite comfortable.

Just then.

The communication ring on my wrist vibrated.

Chen Yuan's clone opened his eyes, glanced at the screen, and discovered Ivan from the Polar Bear Country.

"Um?"

He raised an eyebrow, gesturing for the four people beside him to step back.

"Sir, they need us..."

"Get out!"

"Hai."

Several beautiful technicians bowed and left the room, gently closing the door behind them.

Chen Yuan's clone connected to the communication.

A light screen popped up.

Ivan's rugged face appeared on the screen, and his loud voice was so loud it hurt people's ears even through the screen.

"Chen Wusheng! We've finally made contact with you!"

Chen Yuan leaned back on the soft couch and said calmly, "Your name is... Ivan, right? What's the matter?"

Ivan didn't care about Chen Yuan's attitude.

He rubbed his hands together, a rare hint of embarrassment appearing on his rugged face.

"Chen Wusheng, it's like this... Our Polar Bear Kingdom has recently been conducting an internal investigation and has identified several people who were controlled by an alien race, but we still can't find the alien leader hiding behind the scenes."

"You know we don't have your abilities; investigating would be too slow..."

He paused for a moment, then got straight to the point.

"I would like to ask you to come to the Polar Bear Kingdom to help us find that alien leader."

"The price is negotiable! How about five million high-grade spirit crystals?"

Five million?

Chen Yuan's clone raised an eyebrow; this price wasn't low.

Although he doesn't lack spirit crystals now, who would complain about having too much money?

Besides, he's bored out of his mind in Japan right now, so it wouldn't be bad for him to take a trip to Russia.

You can also see if you can trigger a hidden achievement.

"Okay." Chen Yuan's clone nodded.

"I agree."

Ivan's eyes lit up, and his mustache bristled. "Really?! That's great!"

"Then I will respectfully welcome the Martial Saint Chen to the Arctic Bear Country!"

Chen Yuan's clone waved his hand: "I'll be there tomorrow."

"Okay, okay! I'll arrange it right away!" Ivan's face turned red with excitement, and he waved his hand.

"Chen Wusheng, now that you've come to the Land of the Polar Bear, I'll treat you to the finest wines and the most authentic cuisine!"

Chen Yuan's clone smiled and said, "Okay."

Communication ended.

He put away the communication ring, stood up, and stretched his limbs.

Hearing the noise, the pretty technician outside the door asked softly, "Sir, would you like to come in?"

"Come in." Chen Yuan's clone lay down again.

"Hai..."
