High-level martial arts: Starting with a heart of steel, stats crush everything.

"Target confirmed to be eliminated. Retreat to hibernation pod."

After confirming Chen Mo's death, the armored figure turned and rushed into a small passage in the elevator shaft.

At this moment, a rain of blood began to fall at the end of the passage, and the stench of blood permeated the entire passage.

"Holy crap, that's incredible..."

From the largest pool of blood, an arm suddenly emerged.

Covered in wounds, Chen Mo got up again. He really didn't expect to be killed instantly without even having a chance to react.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. He was just facing a level 15 Earth Warrior. Being able to withstand two hits means his health bar is already quite high.

It should be noted that Song Bin, who had just opened his life gate at the Human Martial Realm, could instantly kill a Grandmaster, let alone an Earth Martial Realm cultivator who was even more powerful than the Human Martial Realm.

"But how did he find me?"

Chen Mo dragged his battered body against the metal wall. The disguise effect of the Demon Phantom took effect, and his figure disappeared.

At the same time, another passive ability of the Demon Phantom was activated, and Chen Mo's health began to recover at a rate of 1% per second.

After a moment of recollection, Chen Mo realized that the hundreds of gazes he had just received at the transfer point were the culprit.

Although he disappeared, the act of tearing apart the metal foundation was still quite significant.

Even if you can't hear the sound, you can still tell that there's a problem in that location.

Moreover, the first strike from that Earth Martial expert wasn't aimed at him, but rather at a wide-range area attack.

The second stab was really aimed at him!

At this moment, both Endless Fury and Resurrection Armor were on cooldown, and Chen Mo needed to find a place to recover.

He didn't want to waste his last remaining buffs, so he could only wait until the cooldowns of his two survival skills were over.

"Would this count as getting lost in the highest-level map right after entering the game?"

Chen Mo recalled the days when he played the Old Man's Ring game, getting lost right after finishing the Stoneville City raid and ending up in Galid...

"Wait, is there air here?"

After resting for a while, Chen Mo suddenly realized that he could hear again.

Looking up, I saw a blurry dividing line not far above my head.

That should be the dividing line between a vacuum and normal air.

"But how did they manage to inject air into a vacuum region without affecting the vacuum state in other regions...?"

Chen Mo was starting to have an existential crisis. What the hell was this if not Tianzen Star Technology?

A minute passed quickly, and Chen Mo's condition improved considerably.

From my storage ring...

"Where's my ring!?"

Chen Mo looked at his empty fingers and realized that the storage ring that Grand Duke Vladimir had given him was gone.

He's packed all his clothes in here; he doesn't want to be naked on the moon!

After a while, Chen Mo found the missing ring in the muscles of his buttocks.

This thing must have gotten stuck in my butt when I went through the particle portal and turned into a pile of rotten flesh...

He had such a high pain tolerance that he didn't even notice a foreign object inside his flesh.

After prying the ring out of his gluteal muscles, Chen Mo found a brand new pure cotton sweatshirt and put it on.

Although the insulation effect is almost zero in such a low-temperature environment, it at least provides some psychological comfort.

Judging by sight, there are only two seemingly identical passageways around, and it's unclear where they lead.

"This place is awful; there's an elevator shaft but no elevator."

"You made me lose my life."

Chen Mo pursed his lips and casually found a secluded corner to lie down.

"Twenty-four hours, huh? I'll just have to lie low for a bit."

......

At the same moment, Geng Lianhu stood in front of the Purple Gold Hall, wearing the grandmaster's robes that had been gathering dust for many years.

The moment he landed, he reported Chen Mo's terrible death to the Purple Gold Hall, and just two hours later he received an inquiry notice from the three elders.

The Forbidden City is located in the northernmost corner of Yanjing (modern-day Beijing), surrounded by beautiful mountains and forests within a radius of 100 kilometers.

After confirming his identity and the announcement, Geng Lianhu walked in through the side door.

As soon as Geng Lianhu entered the Forbidden City, he heard a gentle female voice.

"Master Geng, come to the second floor, we'll be waiting for you here."

Geng Lianhu's spirits lifted, and he immediately stepped onto the stairs, heading towards the room indicated by the voice.

Pushing open the door, the room was empty.

"Please sit down. We can't see anyone, but we're in the room next to yours."

The gentle female voice rang out again, and Geng Lianhu sat down without any hesitation.

"What did you gain from this trip to the Celestial Tribe?"

"It was very rewarding; I gained all sorts of information that I had never had before."

Geng Lianhu was actually quite anxious; he was genuinely afraid that Chen Mo would blow up the moon...

That's right, he wasn't worried about Chen Mo being in any danger, but rather that he was afraid Chen Mo would go too far.

"Tell us about it; we know very little about the Celestial Race."

The woman seemed somewhat surprised, not expecting that these two would obtain information that even they didn't know.

"Then I'll just get to the important points..."

Geng Lianhu shared some of the information he and Chen Mo had obtained.

Apart from Geng Lianhu's voice, the room was quite quiet during this time.

"That's about it. Chen Mo should have reached the moon by now and should be able to bring back more information."

After recounting what he knew, Geng Lianhu waited for the woman's response.

"I understand."

The woman's voice was silent for a moment before it rang out again, and then there was no further sound.

"Then Chen Mo..."

Geng Lianhu was anxious. That kid was on the moon right now, and if anything happened to him, he wouldn't be able to rescue him.

"Don't worry, we've been keeping an eye on Chen Mo."

Seeing that Geng Lianhu was getting anxious, the woman chuckled and replied.

"Based on what we know, what you have told us, and all the ways the child managed to save his life."

"I can guarantee that the child will return safely and will have his own opportunities."

"You need to work harder and try to open your life gate as soon as possible, otherwise Chen Mo could surpass you at any time."

"Surpass me at any time?" Geng Lianhu blinked. In his estimation, Chen Mo would need at least two more years to become a Grandmaster.

By then, I'll definitely have completely opened up my life force and taken control of my own life. How could I possibly lose to that brat?

"Of course, you still know too little about Chen Mo."

A deep male voice rang out, but he only managed to say that one sentence before swallowing it back down.

"Alright, we are aware of this matter. You should return to the Grandmaster Academy as soon as possible. The resources of the Deep Abyss are still very important to the Great Xia."

A female voice rang out, but her tone seemed a little off.

It's like speaking while exerting force.

"If the child needs anything, the three of us are ready to help at any time, so don't worry."

"I understand." With the three elders' promise, Geng Lianhu breathed a sigh of relief.

The Great Xia Dynasty did not publicly disclose the strength of the three elders, but every grandmaster knew that these three were all level sixteen Heavenly Martial Realm old monsters.

If they could lend a helping hand, Chen Mo would have a hard time dying.

After Geng Lianhu left, the eldest sister sitting behind the wall stared at the burly man who had just spoken with an unfriendly expression.

"Isn't your mouth a little too big?"

"Do you know that what we're doing is actually called voyeurism?"

"I just thought that Geng Lianhu was too anxious, so I wanted to comfort him."

The burly man rubbed his ear, feeling somewhat aggrieved; the older woman had almost ripped it off.

"Remember, don't let anyone, especially Chen Mo, know that we are paying close attention to him."

The eldest sister sat down and crossed her legs.

"Once that kid finds out we're backing him up, who knows what he'll do."

"That makes sense..." The tall, thin man and the burly man exchanged a glance and said in unison.
