You Have Science, I Have Martial Arts-Chapter 510 - 241: Don’t Worry, I’m Terrified of Dying (Part 2)
Gu Minghui laughed and said, "Who said that those involved in research can’t fight? I’m certainly not a bookworm who’s powerless. Moreover, because this conquest of Jiuli Grotto Heaven is so significant, the government specifically invited me, the ’Celestial Secret Divine Calculation,’ to serve as the supreme commander."
Among the Martial Saints of the Dongji Kingdom, Gu Minghui’s strength is far from being the strongest, but his ability in deduction and calculation ranks first alongside Divine General Cyan Dragon.
Additionally, Gu Minghui himself possesses Martial Saint combat power, which can serve as a backup for this conquest operation.
Regarding the ownership of Jiuli Grotto Heaven, Dongji Kingdom is determinedly ambitious this time.
In the past years, Jiuli Grotto Heaven has almost erupted with beast tides every decade, causing great suffering in the entire Southwest Region.
Back then, the Void Sun Rat was still present, and the six races of Juru, Manman, Nesting Bird, Ear Rat, Juru, and Nuo had Martial Saint strong persons, which made Dongji Kingdom unable to deal with these remnants of the Mao Race’s forces.
Now, the Void Sun Rat has been killed by Zhangg Xinwu, and the leaders of the six tribes are all dead or injured, plunged into internal chaos, making this the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Dongji Kingdom.
Conquering Jiuli Grotto Heaven not only means Dongji Kingdom can gain a new production site for Exotic Treasures but also signifies that the entire West Xiang will become a safe rear area in the future, greatly reducing military pressure.
Because this concerns the peace of Dongji Kingdom’s Southwest Region for the next hundred years, to ensure foolproof measures, Dongji Kingdom has dispatched a lavish lineup.
Led personally by Gu Minghui, a Martial Saint strong person, accompanied by seven Grandmasters, and more than fifty Martial Arts Masters, along with three thousand Professional Martial Artists.
Such a lineup is enough to sweep away over ninety percent of the nations on Blue Star.
Gu Minghui glanced at Ye Qingzhou several times, then showed a surprised look: "You... have ascended to Master level?"
The characteristic feature of a Master Level Martial Artist is Qi Penetrating Heaven and Earth, with spirit and will linked to the Spiritual Realm, but Ye Qingzhou’s master level is quite odd, lacking the Bridge of Heaven and Earth while his Qi and Blood are extremely restrained, as if a black hole devouring everything.
"Just broke through recently, but the path I took is different from the usual Martial Arts Masters."
Ye Qingzhou had nothing to hide regarding his situation, as it would become apparent when fighting other martial artists in the future anyway.
Thus, he explained to Gu Minghui that he broke through to the Master Realm by constructing the Heaven and Earth Furnace, taking a completely new path in Martial Dao.
Upon hearing this, the latter was overjoyed: "Heaven and Earth Furnace? You bypassed the Bridge of Heaven and Earth’s limitation and found another path to ascend to the Celestial Tier?"
Regardless of whether it’s within a grotto heaven or in Blue Star’s Martial Arts World, master level is a key milestone in power.
The Path of Martial Dao Godhood through the Twelve-Stories Celestial Tower starts with the first step at master level to ascend the Celestial Tier.
Currently, Ye Qingzhou’s cultivation is already at Heaven-Ascending First Layer level, and in terms of combat power, he estimates he could sweep ordinary Martial Arts Masters.
As long as a Master Level Martial Artist doesn’t possess a Super-Tier Martial Technique, they wouldn’t be able to withstand even a single sword strike from him.
"Excellent, excellent, truly excellent!"
Gu Minghui was beside himself with excitement. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
The issue with the Bridge of Heaven and Earth is something Dongji Kingdom has long been aware of but couldn’t do anything about.
Since Dongji Kingdom could not halt the development of Martial Dao, and with other strong powers on Blue Star, not developing would mean being vulnerable when others have advanced.
Now with Ye Qingzhou carving a new road, and one that is originally created, free of technical risks, this is of paramount importance to Dongji Kingdom’s Martial Arts World.
"Are you willing to make the cultivation method for the Heaven and Earth Furnace public?"
Gu Minghui asked eagerly.
Fearing Ye Qingzhou wouldn’t agree, he offered various conditions: "If you’re willing to make the cultivation method public, I can authorize the exchange of a Celestial Tier Sword Technique for you. At the same time, I can elevate your researcher level, moving you from red level directly to cyan level."
The identity levels at the Celestial Secret Research Institute are divided into seven tiers: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple. Cyan level is equivalent to being an expert professor in the research field.
This isn’t like those self-proclaimed professors online, but a high-level talent enjoying various benefits and subsidies, typically held by teachers in higher education institutions with high-level teaching and research achievements.
Usually requiring a doctoral degree, these individuals mainly handle teaching and research work daily, concurrently holding a high academic reputation and influence in a particular professional field.
Ordinary people may never reach such a position in their lifetime.
But for Ye Qingzhou now, it’s easily attainable.
After a brief internal evaluation, Ye Qingzhou nodded and agreed, having initially planned to promote the Heaven and Earth Furnace cultivation method to gain a substantial amount of Celestial Favor.
Now, being able to earn additional benefits from the official side, it’s like hitting two birds with one stone, utterly delightful.
Only a fool would refuse!
Subsequently, Ye Qingzhou sorted out the key method for forging the Heaven and Earth Furnace and handed it to Gu Minghui.
The latter was ecstatic, carefully preserving the information: "I’ve already submitted an application for the Celestial Tier Martial Technique exchange for you. Once this battle concludes, the review process should be complete, and we’ll settle the achievements together."
After resting for several days at the temporary camp on Five Peaks Mountain, upon Gu Minghui’s command, the army set out immediately.
Although there were only around three thousand direct personnel involved in the battle, the team responsible for logistical support numbered over twenty thousand, highlighting the official emphasis on this operational mission.
