Chapter 313: Chapter 40: Commanding Wind and Rain, the World Summit

Lin Chen muttered softly.

His curiosity grew even stronger, wondering where his potential in the Martial Path truly lay?

Could it be… that he could indeed reach the legendary Martial God Realm?

After successfully breaking through, Lin Chen carefully experienced his own capabilities.

After awakening his Martial Spirit, each advancement in the Martial Arts Realm not only enhanced his physical qualities.

More importantly, it provided further mastery over his Martial Spirit abilities…

Lin Chen’s heart stirred slightly, silently chanting: “Bullet Time.”

Instantly, everything around him seemed to slow down in Lin Chen’s eyes.

More precise than before breaking through the Martial Monarch level.

This meant Lin Chen’s reaction times were quicker, allowing him to accomplish more in a split second.

Moreover, what Lin Chen cared about more was that the physical energy consumption for activating Bullet Time had decreased!

After ending Bullet Time, Lin Chen sensed the physical energy he had expended.

“Bullet Time lasted about five seconds… the physical energy consumption was less than one percent!”

“Tsk tsk, this means that I can now maintain Bullet Time for approximately five minutes… No longer just three minutes!”

This two-minute enhancement may seem minor but is genuinely crucial.

Due to the distinctiveness of Bullet Time, Lin Chen only needed roughly two to three seconds each time he activated it.

In today’s battles, Lin Chen could even use Bullet Time two hundred times… Isn’t that enough?

“Hmm, besides the enhancement of Bullet Time… it seems there are other improvements?”

Lin Chen slowly stood up and walked over to the window.

Being summertime, and since Kyoto lies in the north, the weather was dry and scorching.

Lin Chen glanced at the sun above, murmuring:

“It would be nice to have some rain…”

Just as Lin Chen said this, he suddenly felt as if he truly had the ability to make it rain in the sky!

“Should I, give it a try?”

His heart stirred slightly, he extended his hands, and unleashed the Candle Dragon’s power.

In the sky, clouds began to move.

Within mere minutes, the clouds collided, releasing raindrops…

A few minutes later, the rain intensified, turning into a torrential downpour.

Simultaneously, Lin Chen felt his physical energy depleting rapidly.

In a mere few minutes, Lin Chen was breathing heavily, his face pale, and physically drained.

Feeling the anomaly on his body, Lin Chen quickly halted the Candle Dragon’s power.

Then he took out several Physical Potions and drank them.

After consuming several physical potions, Lin Chen’s complexion improved noticeably.

“Candle Dragon’s power, commanding wind and rain…”

“But, the consumption is a bit too much!”

Lin Chen sighed with a bitter smile, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Previously, Lin Chen also possessed the ability to generate wind by blowing air.

But in comparison, summoning heavy rain on a scorching sunny day was undoubtedly more magical and consumed more energy.

“Commanding wind and rain, holding the authority of Zhu Jiuyin…”

“Perhaps someday, I can wield the Power of Space-Time too?”

Lin Chen pondered silently.

After successfully completing the breakthrough, Lin Chen walked out of the Cultivation Room.

He saw Li Nian standing outside the door.

At this moment, Li Nian was curiously leaning against the window, muttering to himself:

“Strange, the weather forecast said there’d be no rain today… Why is it raining only within the military region’s area?”

“It’s the year 3038! Can weather forecasts still be inaccurate?”

As he spoke, he caught sight of Lin Chen behind him, and immediately exclaimed with joy:

“Lin Chen, did you break through successfully?”

Lin Chen nodded slightly.

“Great, I’ll call Commander Wang right away!”

Li Nian took out a communication device and reported to Wang Lishan, then urged:

“Lin Chen, hurry to the conference room! The leaders from various countries have been waiting for you for days!”

“These past few days, the meeting has been noisy, waiting for you to appear!”

Lin Chen chuckled hearing this.

“In that case, let’s go and have a look!”

Several days ago, the high-level leaders from the six major strong countries within the Human Alliance.

were sent to the Great Xia Country, always ready for this meeting.

These real top figures among humanity had a common aim.

To meet Lin Chen!

…

As Lin Chen leisurely made his way to the conference room, the highest meeting room of the Martial Arts Palace was hosting a crucial meeting impacting all of humanity.

This meeting was initiated by the Human Alliance.

The location was chosen to be in the Great Xia Country.

Along with the Great Xia Country, representatives from Mo Country, Huang Country, Yin Country, Mao Country…

The seven most powerful countries on Blue Star sent delegates to attend this meeting.

In the conference room, Wang Lishan, representing the Great Xia Country, sat in the chief seat.

At this moment, his demeanor was relaxed, speaking aloud:

“Everyone, the discussions over the past few days have reached a conclusion…”

“Now let me announce the results of this meeting.”

“Firstly, to foster the development of Blue Star Martial Path and collectively counter Demon Beasts… the Great Xia Country is willing to share the latest breathing technique research achievement—the Ninth Generation Martial Arts Breathing Method with the Human Alliance.”

Upon hearing these words, the representatives from various countries sitting below instantly showed expressions of delight.

The entire High Martial World is aware, the breathing techniques of the Great Xia Country are the most advanced and potent!

Especially the Ninth Generation Breathing Technique, which can almost allow martial artists to achieve leapfrog progress in cultivation.

And now, except for Great Xia, other countries are still implementing the Eighth Generation Breathing Technique.

Although it is quite advanced, it is far inferior to the Ninth Generation Breathing Technique.

Clap, clap, clap—

As Wang Lishan announced the first matter, representatives from various countries below applauded in unison.

Wang Lishan paused slightly, his face showing the confidence of a great nation.

Before introducing cultivation, Great Xia was already powerful, but Mo Country could also compare with Great Xia.

Moreover, other strong nations were not convinced with each other, and no country had truly been respected.

But now, the situation is completely different!

Wang Lishan extended his hand, indicating no need to continue applauding.

Then he spoke lightly:

“The second matter is about the promotion of hybrid spirit rice…”

“According to our country’s ten years of experimentation and partial promotion, hybrid spirit rice greatly assists the cultivation of martial artists below warriors.”

“According to incomplete data statistics, after consuming hybrid spirit rice, the average time for martial disciples to advance to martial artists is shortened by one year, and the time for martial artists to advance to warriors is shortened by 18 months…”

After Wang Lishan spoke, he looked at the representatives from various countries below.

Clap, clap, clap—

Once again, the applause was uniform.

Wang Lishan nodded in satisfaction and continued:

“Third, our country is preparing to share the cultivation techniques of the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment Stage with the Human Alliance…”

“At the same time, we will send specialized teams to various countries to promote spiritual energy and cultivate spirit plants…”

“Of course, every spirit plant and each arrangement of the Spirit Gathering Array will incur a fee.”

Upon hearing this, the representatives from various countries below applauded uniformly again.

“Clap, clap, clap…”

“Great Xia truly deserves to be called a land of propriety! It is indeed a model for our Human Race!”

“Indeed, Great Xia promotes the common progress of all humanity… If any other country opposes Great Xia in the future, Mo Country will be the first to disagree!”

The high-level leaders from various countries were all uniformly praising voices.

The words were filled with hypocrisy and flattery.

In the past decade, Great Xia’s development has been observed by all countries.

Martial arts strength has nearly doubled, and they are evenly matched against demon beasts in the Martial Realm…

As for other major countries, they dream of these!

As for technical assistance, charging fees… Isn’t that quite normal?

For them, as long as they can introduce cultivation into their own country, everything is negotiable!

Wang Lishan stood on the main seat, looking at the representatives of various countries below, appearing very calm on the surface, but internally, he was quite proud.

“Sigh, sometimes diplomacy is just so simple! There’s no difference between customers buying vegetables at the market and vendors…”

“Hmm, it’s all for their own interests…”

Obviously, as long as you satisfy their interests and hold control over their lifeline, these countries will be extremely obedient.

And the three costs that Great Xia pays may seem like a lot, but they are actually negligible.

First, the Ninth Generation Breathing Technique is indeed advanced, but this breathing technique isn’t exclusive to one country.

Allowing countries on Blue Star to cultivate isn’t detrimental to Great Xia.

Most importantly, the Tenth Generation Breathing Method is already in the experimental stage…

Second, sharing the hybrid spirit rice technology.

It’s merely sharing some original spirit rice seeds and sending some experts over to guide cultivation.

The cost is quite low, and over 60% of Great Xia’s rice has been replaced with spirit rice, which has developed far beyond other countries.

As for the third point.

Sharing the cultivation techniques of Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment, there’s nothing much to say.

Lin Chen brought back nearly ten thousand books of Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment techniques.

Just selecting a few books from him to send over poses almost no loss to Great Xia.

The only thing worth mentioning is actually the sharing of spiritual energy technology.

That is, sending specialized Array Masters to help other countries set up Spirit Gathering Arrays and plant spirit plants…

But the key is, this stuff is charged!

The price of Spirit Gathering Arrays and spirit seeds isn’t high, but Great Xia can ask for exorbitant prices.

Most crucially, the materials needed for array formation are limited and only produced in the cultivation realm.

Other countries wanting to acquire them can only continuously curry favor with Great Xia to purchase them…

This is complete monopolization, holding the lifeline of other countries!

Just think, as long as you hold onto this lifeline, won’t you worry about other countries not listening and causing internal chaos in the future?

Therefore, the three support items provided by Great Xia.

They have been carefully considered and decided by think tanks.

No loss for Great Xia, earning great international reputation, and even numerous benefits!

The representatives of various countries below are also savvy, naturally understanding Great Xia’s intentions.

But having obtained practical benefits, they are naturally grateful at the moment.

“Cough, cough…”

This time, Wang Lishan coughed twice.

“The above are the support we offer to other countries from Great Xia…”

“We sincerely hope that the various benefits brought from the cultivation realm can promote joint progress among all countries worldwide…”

“However, sigh…”

At this point, Wang Lishan pretended to express a dilemma, saying:

“But exploring the cultivation realm, we have consumed a lot of resources and energy…”

“With just the strength of Great Xia alone, the exploration of the cultivation realm is indeed limited.”

Wang Lishan deliberately left his sentence halfway.

The representatives from various countries below immediately understood and expressed their support.

“Our Mo Country is willing to fully support Great Xia’s research by sending a thousand-member expert team to assist…”
