Chapter 305: Worth a Million
Chapter 305: Worth a Million
"With your words, I'm confident about winning the Martial Arts Tournament," Qi Yuan replied.
After all, it was common knowledge that there were hidden dragons and crouching tigers among the people.
What if there were tigers and dragons among the martial artists?
He wasn't afraid of ordinary tigers and dragons, but if a dragon comparable to a Yang God appeared, he'd be in trouble.
Bigbeard glanced at Kan Huan, puzzled.
Qi Yuan had just slain that terrifying giant beast with a single strike, and in his eyes, it was akin to a divine act.
A divine being participating in a mortal tournament... this was a game among mortals.
Bigbeard looked at the military camp reduced to ruins, feeling a sense of absurdity.
This camp had been guarded by over three thousand soldiers.
It was equipped with all sorts of weapons.
Even fighter jets were part of its arsenal.
Yet, at this moment, everything had been reduced to rubble.
This was a legendary feat, a one-man army from the myths.
Just then, the phone rang suddenly.
Amidst the silent ruins, the ringing phone sounded especially harsh.
"Hello? Qi Yuan, the Martial Arts Tournament has started. Why aren't you here? Where are you now?" Xu Tiehua's voice sounded anxious on the other end of the line.
Xu Tiehua's voice was accompanied by enthusiastic cheers, indicating they were at the scene of the city-level competition.
Faintly, some voices of discontent could also be heard.
"It's about time, and you still haven't shown up. Even Brother Xu had to call you. You're quite the young master," someone grumbled.
"Oh, I don't need to participate in the city-level tournament. I've already passed that stage and only need to attend the national-level one," Qi Yuan replied calmly.
He had used Yang Shan's connections to bypass the city-level tournament and go straight to the national-level one.
All he needed was to pass a single test.
"Huh?" Xu Tiehua was taken aback. She hadn't expected this outcome, "You... are participating in the national-level tournament?"
Xu Tiehua was aware of Qi Yuan's identity as the orphan of a martyr.
Aside from his girlfriend being a celebrity, which was impressive, Qi Yuan's family background was otherwise ordinary.
How did he manage to pull these strings?
"How did you...?" Xu Tiehua couldn't help but ask.
"It's simple. I'm just that strong," Qi Yuan replied honestly.
Yang Shan had agreed to Qi Yuan's request to use the backdoor because Qi Yuan was powerful enough, having already reached the Martial Limit.
Martial Limit experts could participate in the Martial Arts Tournament through alternative channels.
"Moreover, I have a Martial Artist License. Participating in the national tournament isn't unreasonable, is it?" Qi Yuan said candidly.
He was a law-abiding and kind-hearted person who never took shortcuts.
On the other end of the line, Xu Tiehua fell silent for a moment before saying, "In that case, see you at the national tournament!"
Xu Tiehua was skeptical of Qi Yuan's words.
She didn't believe Qi Yuan could skip the city-level tournament and go straight to the national-level one.
Qi Yuan had only been training at the Bright Martial Studio for three months and didn't even have a Martial Artist License. How could he compete in the national-level tournament?
The call ended.
Xu Tiehua looked at the remaining two people and said, "Since Qi Yuan isn't participating, it's just the three of us this time."
"No wonder he didn't want to practice for the previous team competition. He was afraid and didn't dare to join," one of them said.
"That's right. With his strength, he doesn't even have a Martial Artist License. If he meets any competitor, he'll probably end up with broken bones and be bedridden for half a month. Not showing up is a wise decision," the other added.
The two remaining contestants spoke with a hint of disdain for Qi Yuan.
Fleeing the battlefield was the most shameful act.
At the same time, Qi Yuan's phone received a message from Wang Shiqiao.
"You've got guts, standing up Xu Tiehua. You're not even afraid of missing the Martial Arts Tournament.
You know, he's the guy who attended the Black Funeral.
What about you? Are you too scared to participate?"
"I... I'm going abroad."
"Abroad? With your girlfriend? Are you on your honeymoon?"
"Nonsense. I'm in Wugu right now."
"Haha, you're making things up. If you're not going, just say so. Don't lie about Wugu."
Wang Shiqiao clearly didn't believe him.
Wugu Kingdom and Yue Lang Kingdom were at war, and it was unlikely for an ordinary person like Qi Yuan to venture into a war zone.
It was like seeking death.
Not to mention, Wugu Kingdom was an enemy of Qin Yuan Kingdom.
For a Qin Yuan citizen to go to Wugu was akin to courting death.
After a few more exchanges, Qi Yuan stopped talking. He looked at Kan Huan and Bigbeard and said, "Wen Min is waiting for me ahead. We'll leave by car."
Hearing this, Kan Huan felt a mix of emotions.
He looked at the ruins and said, "Okay."
Bigbeard's face showed concern, "If the people from Wugu Kingdom find out about what happened here, they won't let it go.
Especially the underground laboratory beneath the prison, it's clearly the work of the Wugu Cult.
Perhaps it's an experiment supported by the Canxing.
Canxing has deep ties with Wugu Kingdom, and this isn't a secret.
The terrifying giant beast we saw earlier, such technology is very much like Canxing's style.
Now that the military camp is destroyed, their experiment is exposed.
Wugu Kingdom will definitely not let this go."
Bigbeard was even more fearful of the mysterious Canxing.
"Don't worry. With me here, they won't be able to take you away, right?" Qi Yuan said casually, "If I didn't have so much to do, I'd consider paying a visit to the Wugu Cult headquarters."
"Be careful, mister. Wugu Kingdom has the backing of the Ancient Witch Country and Canxing. Don't act rashly," Bigbeard advised.
While Wugu Kingdom's military might wasn't exceptional, they did possess advanced weaponry.
They had near-light-speed laser guns and missiles capable of destroying mountains.
This weapon, not a single one of them, can be withstood by human strength.
It is even rumored to be powerful enough to slay a god.
Qi Yuan glanced at Da Huzi, "Hmm, I've always been cautious. I won't do anything unless I'm certain."
As he spoke, he looked up at the stars in the sky.
The day he formed his Stellar Essence Core was drawing near.
After forming the core, his strength would greatly increase, and he would gain some self-preservation abilities.
"Let's go."
He led the two of them towards a distant town.
...
"Priest... Something's wrong! The Gigapower God Model One in the testing area suddenly went berserk, and then... it went silent!"
A believer from the Wugu religion had a look of anxiety on his face.
Gigapower God Model One was a divine weapon they had created.
This weapon was invincible against countless armies.
It had been under development in secret.
But suddenly, Gigapower God Model One went on a rampage.
And it happened in a military camp, which could only mean chaos.
"Quickly contact Guantanran and ask what's going on! We must suppress Gigapower God Model One!" The priest exclaimed, shocked.
Gigapower God Model One had actually gone berserk.
Upon hearing this, the believer's face turned extremely ugly: "We can't get in touch. All the officers in the camp... we can't reach any of them."
"Our squad is already on its way to that military camp."
The priest paused slightly: "Unable to contact them... could it be that Gigapower God Model One has..."
A terrifying thought flashed through the priest's mind, which he quickly suppressed.
Gigapower God Model One was incredibly powerful, but it was still in its infancy. How could it be compared to an entire legion?
"The military is also on their way there. It shouldn't be long before we get some answers."
The believer spoke calmly.
"In that case, it's probably just an accident." The priest breathed a sigh of relief.
He guessed that Gigapower God Model One had suddenly awakened, affecting the local communication equipment, hence the strange situation.
Once the squad arrived at the camp, everything would be resolved.
"Keep an eye on this matter. As soon as there's any news, inform me. I'll go see the Holy Son." The Seal Artifact Priest spoke, his eyes filled with admiration as he mentioned the Holy Son.
The Holy Son was the most revered person in the Wugu religion, second only to the leader.
Even the twelve priests couldn't compare.
And now, the Holy Son had married the daughter of a general from Cuanxing, elevating his status within the religion, even surpassing the leader.
The priest left the estate and headed towards another estate in a private vehicle.
Within the estate, there was a martial arts training ground.
When the Seal Artifact Priest arrived, he looked at the Holy Son in the center of the training ground, his eyes filled with awe: "The Holy Son's strength... is becoming more and more terrifying."
An elderly man nearby laughed: "With the genetic drugs from Cuanxing, the Holy Son can rival the gods. It's only a matter of time."
In the center of the training ground, the Holy Son shouted.
His eyes turned crimson at that moment.
He picked up an iron rod, and his arms exerted tremendous force.
Boom!
A loud noise reverberated, and the iron rod snapped in response.
He had crushed the iron rod.
This immense strength was beyond human capability.
Even warriors enhanced by genetic drugs couldn't achieve this.
"The Holy Son's strength is growing more formidable. It won't be long before he rivals the Wugu God!" At this moment, the Seal Artifact Priest couldn't help but flatter.
The Wugu God was the deity worshipped by the Wugu religion.
According to legends, the Wugu God could walk while carrying mountains.
The Holy Son's eyes shone with determination: "Give me enough time, and I will surpass the Wugu God!"
He was brimming with confidence, but deep in his eyes, there was a hint of concern.
"How's the God Creation Project progressing?" The Holy Son's eyes flickered with tension.
The God Creation Project was about creating various terrifying beasts.
These beasts weren't meant for war; they were nutritional supplements.
They were the Holy Son's personal supplements.
In the book, there's a version without mistakes!
After consuming them, his strength would significantly increase.
"Everything is progressing smoothly.
With this war, our progress has even accelerated." The old man chuckled.
In peaceful times, they had to be cautious.
But during war, the disappearance of a few thousand people was insignificant.
The Seal Artifact Priest smiled, choosing to keep the Gigapower God Model One incident a secret.
"Everything is normal. All the drug slaves have been captured. We just need more time."
The Holy Son nodded: "Speed up the progress. After the world restarts, in ten years, when spiritual energy revives, there will be cultivators who rival the gods. I must have the strength to match them!"
Mentioning this, the Holy Son felt a sense of urgency.
With the revival of spiritual energy, the world would undergo a massive transformation.
According to the Wugu God's plan, the entire Arching Star would reveal a colossal treasure vault to the world.
Only by possessing strength and controlling this astonishing vault could they succeed.
"Rivaling the gods..." The Seal Artifact Priest said, "The Holy Son will undoubtedly surpass the gods!"
"Hmph, these gods aren't the weaklings from legends.
Ordinary missiles and light bullets are useless against them.
Only the Sky Eye and the most advanced weapons from Cuanxing can deal with them.
After all, they are god-like cultivators with Divine Infants."
The Holy Son's face was filled with reverence.
He wasn't a world restarter.
But he possessed the knowledge of world restarters.
He knew that in ten years, when the spatial rift fully opens, countless cultivators will descend upon the world.
Among them are the so-called god-like Divine Infants.
Ordinary missiles can't harm these Divine Infants.
Only weapons of the Sky Eye's caliber can precisely eliminate them.
(End of Chapter)
Shengzi had high ambitions. He wanted to reach the level of the divine within ten years, surpassing the Wu God!
Just then, the color on the face of Feng Qi Jisi, the military commander, suddenly turned grim.
His communicator was ringing, and it was the highest priority alert.
Shengzi glanced over and said calmly, "Answer it."
Feng Qi Jisi hurriedly opened the communicator, his voice heavy. "What's going on?"
"Commander, it's bad. Divine Power One... is gone!"
"What!" Feng Qi Jisi's face changed drastically. He sneaked a look atShShShengzi, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes, his voice suddenly becoming shrill. "What exactly happened? Could it be that the people fromLittle Huangtan Military Camp killed Divine Power One? What about Guo Tanran? Bring him to see me!"
Feng Qi Jisi was furious.
Divine Power One was a treasure, more precious than all three thousand soldiers in the military camp.
If the three thousand soldiers died, Divine Power One must not be harmed!
"The Great Commander... Guo Tanran... and all the people in Little Huangtan Military Camp... they are all dead."
"What!" Feng Qi Jisi was completely shocked.
All dead?
How could this be possible!
Could it be that the Qin Yuan Kingdom, without hesitation, used the Sky’s Eye on Little Huangtan Military Camp?
"Commander, this is a video taken by military personnel. I'm sending it to you. There are also videos recorded by people nearby... I'll send those to you too."
Feng Qi Jisi's heart was anxious, his mind in turmoil.
Shengzi's eyes also deepened, a hint of surprise mixed in.
That was Little Huangtan Military Camp, with over three thousand soldiers guarding it.
Even a divine-level deity would need to pay a heavy price to wipe out such a military camp.
And yet, Little Huangtan Military Camp was completely annihilated?
Feng Qi Jisi nervously opened the video. Shengzi immediately leaned over, and the other old man also looked over with a grave expression.
The video opened, showing what was once a steel fortress now reduced to ruins.
Bodies, shattered walls, and destroyed armored vehicles and artillery were strewn everywhere.
The entire military base was like a place of death.
Shengzi's eyes narrowed. "It wasn’t a ground assault or the Sky’s Eye. What could it be?"
The old man's eyes also widened in shock.
The scene in the video was too terrifying.
A military camp guarded by three thousand soldiers, just... gone, without a sound.
"There are also videos recorded by people nearby. Let’s see them," the old man suggested, having an idea.
The three of them looked at the communicator.
In the screen of the communicator, there was nothing but blood Red Light.
A huge sword, as big as a small mountain, smashed into the ground!
The entire military base turned into a blood-red sphere, and then... it returned to calm.
Shengzi's eyes widened in horror. "This is... a deity!"
This must be a deity!
How could a deity level being strike in advance?
Thinking about it, Shengzi felt a strong sense of threat and wanted to head to Canxing. Only on Can Xing could they hope to contend with, and even suppress, a deity's power!
...
The car sped along and then came to a sudden stop.
After a few minutes, Qi Yuan handed the head over to Ya Ji.
"Wrap it up well. This head is worth a million."
Qi Yuan was very happy. He hadn’t expected this unexpected gain.
They killed someone and left the Wu gui country in their car.
No pursuit yet.
But they encountered some Wu gui soldiers who were looking for a fight.
Those soldiers had stopped Qi Yuan and his group’s car.
Originally, they planned to pay a little.
But then Qi Yuan noticed a guy he had been arguing with Wang shiqiao online for a month.
So, he took care of the guy on the spot.
Wang shiqiao had said that if he helped her kill that guy, she would give him a million.
Qi yuan was very happy. He hadn’t expected this, rescuing a person could also earn him money.
Ya ji held the bloodless head, her heart racing, but she clso tightly.
Da hu’s mind was speechless.
A million?
Isn’t that a lot of money?
In the military base, there were so many high-ranking officers. You could cut a few heads and probably earn more than a few million.
Of course, he was speechless, but he still had his wits and didn’t dare to question Qi Yuan.
"Mr. Qi, you’re really daring, robbing us right on our heads. How can we get back?"
"What?" Da hu’s heart skipped a beat.
Kanhuan rarely saw such an expression in Mr. Qi’s eyes.
Could there be something even Qi couldn’t handle?
That would be a big problem!
"I can’t pass through security with this head. How do we get back to Wu gui country?"
"I’m a law-abiding citizen. I can’t break the law."
But this is a million yuan. Think about how many bowls of beef noodles you could buy with this!"
Qi yuan was torn between principle and profit.
Kanhuan quickly said, "Mr. Qi, don’t worry. I’ll help you get this head through security."
"Okay, follow the rules!" Kanhuan nodded. After being with Qi for so long, he was familiar with qi’s ways.
Da hu’s face was confused.
"Breaking the law?"
You’ve already killed thousands... and you’re worrying about a million?
