I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 536 The God (66)

Staring at the third palm gathering in the air, the little hamster couldn't help but meow.

They're fucking rich!
The sound of cannons can cost a fortune, and a single blow can wipe out tens of millions.

And to start fighting right from the beginning, are they just sore losers?
We are now 200 kilometers from our destination, and our defensive shuttles have been exhausted.

A force that has lost air superiority is a sitting duck, and will only be crushed at sea by the enemy.

After realizing that he had run out of ideas, the little hamster broke out in a cold sweat.

Seeing the palm print growing larger and larger in the air, the little hamster gritted its teeth and said, "There's no other way, I have to use my ultimate technique. Teacher Zhao, save me!"

"I'm right next to you, you could have just told me," Teacher Zhao said helplessly.

"It's not that I didn't want to trouble you, teacher, but you have to do it, so this is the only way I can do it," the little hamster said apologetically.

"...In the future, read less of the officialdom handbook; that stuff is extremely harmful."

Looking up, Zhao Ziri glanced at the giant hand in the air, then suddenly flipped over the railing and activated the system's combat techniques in mid-air.

His bright red muscles seemed to be boiling lava, and all the muscles in his body were solidified at this moment, mobilizing all his power.

"not enough."

The magical power began to flow, the spiritual root began to bloom, and the magical power system within the body operated at a speed of a thousand times, squeezing out all of its own power.

His red body began to turn black, and his blood and magical power merged within him, instantly opening multiple acupoints in his body. He broke through the Foundation Establishment stage with his physical body, surpassing the limits of his physical body, and then advanced.

From afar, sweat billowed from Teacher Zhao's body, his physical strength pushed to its limit. Even Cao Zhen, who was monitoring the scene via satellite, couldn't help but stand up and exclaim, "Using the physical body as a bridge to the divine! To actually break through the boundaries of Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment with the physical body—what kind of divine being is this!"

Ma Yueru also looked at Teacher Zhao's muscles on the screen, and her heart was filled with a huge wave of emotions.

The power of a Foundation Establishment expert comes from the combination of the spiritual root and the Foundation Establishment seed within their body, and the Foundation Establishment seed is a product bestowed by the Star Lord.

Therefore, every Foundation Establishment expert can be understood as a subordinate of the corresponding Star Lord, who is firmly controlled by the Star Lord.

It's unbelievable that a Qi Refining cultivator could actually break through the shackles of the physical body and enter the Foundation Establishment state in a short period of time.

Moreover, as a body cultivator, Ma Yueru was better able to sense the power contained in the other person's muscles.

To think that she could be so thoroughly beaten by such a superhuman made Ma Yueru feel excited, and she wished that the other person would beat her up again.

In the video, Teacher Zhao has already taken a stance, suddenly raised his leg, and the power he had gathered exploded at this moment, kicking the side of the cargo ship hard, actually kicking the cargo ship a section away.

Like a stone skipping across water, the cargo ship lurched forward, and Teacher Zhao was thrown back, struck by the giant hand where he had been, creating another huge wave that pushed the cargo ship forward a great distance.

Teacher Zhao then tapped the surface of the sea, then surged forward, and in a few steps, he stepped back onto the cargo ship.

Jumping onto the deck, Teacher Zhao shook off the seawater. His beard, which had just been burned off by his questioning techniques, revealed a rather handsome face.

Taking the towel, Teacher Zhao wiped the water off her face and then said to the driver beside her, "Thank you, but why are you looking at me like that?"

"It's nothing, I just haven't seen Teacher Zhao without a beard before. I didn't expect him to look so...delicate."

"That's why I have to grow a beard, otherwise people will always think I can't fight."

He touched his chin, and the hair follicles there were stimulated, causing a beard to grow immediately, much to the regret of the driver next to him.

Looking up, Teacher Zhao beckoned to the air, making a provocative gesture.

Then, he turned around and saw Chen Yu, with Dao Lingyun by his arm, dragging Ma Daqiang onto the deck, staring intently at him.

"Chen Yu, why did you come out? Go downstairs quickly, the deck isn't safe." "Downstairs isn't safe either, the water's flooding in. It's safer here. Teacher Zhao, what you just did..."

Chen Yu wanted to ask Teacher Zhao if he had just reached the Foundation Establishment stage, but Teacher Zhao's eyes flashed, and he stopped him from saying anything more.

Illegal foundation building is just as serious as illegal use of magic; both are acts that undermine the foundation of a star lord, and cannot be discussed lightly.

Chen Yu nodded, indicating that he would not say anything more.

Just thinking about Teacher Zhao's performance, Chen Yu felt a surge of emotion, followed by despair.

If this direct attack is too powerful, then the consequences will be dire.

The previous battle technique, "Immovable as a Mountain," and the current physical foundation cultivation, with all sorts of terrifying moves emerging one after another, left him unsure which cultivation method to choose.

Now, he's been forced into a corner; "My Dream" must be launched as soon as possible, or he'll be in big trouble.

Coincidentally, Cao Zhen on the Mercy Ship had the same idea.

The three "Buddha's Compassion" messages have already depleted the public funds allocated to the Compassionate Ship, and now it will be necessary to pay for it out of pocket.

Although Foundation Establishment cultivators could be used as scapegoats, this matter couldn't be kept secret from too many people, and in the end, they would still have to pay a portion themselves.

Furthermore, he lacked confidence that he could accurately hit Zhao Ziri, and even if he did hit him, he wasn't confident that he could take him down.

Just as Cao Zhen was struggling with his decision, he saw Ma Yueru answer the phone. After a few words, she handed the phone to him: "Minister Cao, this is the Tianmu City Cultivator Management Committee."

"What happened to them?"

"They want a ceasefire. The live stream showed all the footage from just now. They don't want to fight Tianyuan anymore, and they said they'd rather settle out of court."

Cao Zhen looked coldly at Ma Yueru, then answered the phone.

However, after the call connected, he didn't exchange pleasantries but went straight to the point: "Chen Yu is building a port, you should know that. Once the port is completed, the freight volume in Tianmu City will drop by half. If you're willing to accept that, then we can talk; if not, then we can continue fighting!"

After a long silence on the other end, a voice finally spoke: "What else do you need?"

"Let's deploy the army."

"That is impossible."

"What about private soldiers? I know that your cultivator management group has its own private armed forces."

"...That's fine. But we need some kind of return."

"Wangsheng Prefecture will allocate some resources to this area and increase investment in Tianmu City. The initial investment will be conservatively set at 3 billion yuan. Is that sufficient?"

"Sure. We'll send our private troops."

After losing contact, Cao Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that he had already suffered a slight loss this time.

But the more this was the case, the more excited he became.

Chen Yu's trump card has been forced out; now it's his turn to shine.

The Disaster Response Department also has its own private army. Although most of these cultivators are at the Qi Refining stage, they are ruthless in their needle pricks and use various methods to cremate their bodies every day, making them incredibly tough and resilient.

Now is the time to use them.
