Chapter 270 Heaven Immortal

As it turns out, Jia Susu was not crazy, nor was she imagining things. Dante really was different from how he usually was, at least within the True Martial World.

Dante was a typical ignorant Westerner, and his view of Ancient China was exactly as depicted in the various web novels and web comics from the same place, not the actual history from the history books.

So he functioned with the idea that everyone here was missing all their screws, and people killed for the stupidest reasons. A young woman could kill because you saw her naked, a man could kill because the girl he liked spoke to you, an old man could kill because you disrespected him by not groveling in his presence, and an old woman could kill you because somehow her disciple or daughter fell in love with you.

So he usually strutted around acting as arrogant and indifferent as those main characters from those stories. When in Rome, do what Romans do, right?

But now, his strength was so high that nothing and no one in this quantum world could possibly be his match, so there was no need to act or pretend to be someone he was not, and he could freely be himself.

That was why Jia Susu felt weird because the cold and aloof Dante suddenly became kinder and more 'normal'.

Dante walked through the Supreme Martial Hall's courtyard and saw that his fellow apprentices were practicing diligently as usual. They also spotted him but did not react too strongly. It was common for people to disappear into seclusion for long periods of time, especially an Internal Arts user like Dante.

Shui Binglan was often cooped up for months on end in her room, chanting her own Internal Arts' mantra to convert her base energy into her own Internal Force, so Dante was even more humane in this regard.

Dante eventually entered the administration hall and walked straight into Hao Donglei's office. The bald-headed muscleman was chatting with Xia Dongyin, the Hall Elder for Resources, who had a chest bigger than even Beatrice or Portia.

When the two of them saw him come in, Xia Dongyin's eyes flashed with interest and hidden intent, while Hao Donglei seemed a bit unhappy that his 'private time' was interrupted. However, he still nodded to Dante and gestured to a nearby seat.

Dante glanced at Xia Dongyin and nodded at her slightly before focusing on Hao Donglei. He smiled and sat down while he let Jia Susu stand beside him.

It was then that the two noticed Jia Susu's weaker presence compared to the powerful Dante, and their faces changed greatly. How could someone wearing the garb of a servant disciple possibly be in the perfection stage of the Martial Warrior Realm? Not even some top inner disciples had such achievements!

Before they could even ask, Dante clapped his hands loudly and pointed to himself. "Eyes on me."

With their attention forcibly brought onto himself, he spoke casually. "I need you to contact the Martial God behind the Supreme Martial Hall in order to tell him two things."

Dante raised his index finger. "First, I will be heading to the Ancient True Continent to fight for the Heavenly Scroll of Infinite Paths, so he can follow me if he wants to fish for benefits."

Dante then raised his middle finger to stand beside the other. "Second, Jia Susu will take my place as a core disciple of this hall and head to the provincial capital."

Before they could speak, Dante chuckled. "Don't worry, I am not interested in making demands without sufficient proof of capability. How does this feel?"

Dante released his Blood Qi aura and let it envelop the entire city and beyond, wantonly releasing all his Blood Qi for the first time in his life. To his own surprise, the range easily surpassed his spirit sense, and even though his aura could not function as a spirit sense, he could tell that it stretched over the entire continent he was on and more, passing over the sea area inhabited by countless powerful demon beasts.

Immediately, everyone within this range had their faces change greatly as endless fear surged into their hearts and souls. All of them, almost in synchronization, shouted out 'Martial God!!!' and glanced at the sky.

Even more so when they felt the depth of the Blood Qi, even those who were ignorant of how the Martial God realm worked could tell that this was a Martial God that surpassed any Martial God.

The Blood Qi aura was so potent that many people who did not have any cultivation suddenly broke through into Body Tempering. Those at Martial Warrior entered Martial Blood, and Martial Blood became Martial Masters.

Even crazier was that Martial Masters became Martial Grandmasters.

Oh God, even Martial Grandmasters became Martial Gods on the spot!!!

Martial God!!

The peak of the External Arts realm, craved by billions but had stopped more than 99.99% of Martial Grandmasters worldwide from enjoying it, was now easily accessed by all Martial Grandmasters within the range of Dante's aura, be they human or beast.

As for Hao Donglei and Xia Dongyin, they were directly in front of Dante, so the former became a Martial God while the latter easily became a Martial Master, even reaching the peak.

Strangely enough, Jia Susu did not break through, but she did sense the aura. In fact, she sensed it more intimately than the others, and rather than gaining a breakthrough, she gained enlightenment and insights into how Blood Qi worked.

Suddenly, Dante retracted his aura, and everything seemed to be clouds and mist, like a dream that had happened but one could not remember. However, everyone who broke through could not forget, and their faces turned toward the direction of the Supreme Martial Hall from wherever they were across the sea and continent.

Hao Donglei and Xia Dongyin were still in a daze from the aura they felt and the breakthrough they had, but Dante snapped a finger and brought them out of it.

Hao Donglei rapidly shook his head to clear his thoughts and stood up with respect. "At once! I will immediately inform the Martial God of our faction! How long will you be willing to wait for him?"

"Oh, nothing that critical. Just let him come as fast as he can," Dante replied casually, crossing his legs.

Hao Donglei nodded and left to make the preparations immediately, leaving him alone with Jia Susu and Xia Dongyin. When Dante glanced at the woman, her whole body trembled. One thing about this Hall Elder was that she survived by being down-to-earth and knowing her limits.

When she did not know Dante's true power and pedigree, she dared to plot to use a honey trap on him. Now that she had seen only 0.1% of his pedigree, she did not dare to even think about breathing too loudly in his presence.

"Hahaha. Take this and find a boy called Liang for me. Simply give the item to him and return here with him in a day at most," Dante instructed her as he used Nanite Resonance to craft a tracker for Xia Dongyin and tossed it to her.

Xia Dongyin easily caught it and glanced at it with confusion. However, it soon displayed a 3D map of the entire Great Song Kingdom and showed a red dot where Liang was, around 300 kilometers away and where Xia Dongyin was as a blue dot, in Green Wind City.

"Simply follow the map to the red dot and?hand the item to him. Now go," Dante instructed simply. historical

The woman bowed, creating a marvelous sight that made Jia Susu's face go red, and then left. As for Dante, he was thinking about Liang's location, which was that valley where he left resources for him.

In truth, when he left back then, he didn't think he would come back, but he had to wrap things up properly. Anyway, Dante gave Jia Susu more Enhanced Energy Elixirs and let her train by the side.

In no time, Hao Donglei hurriedly returned and informed Dante that their Martial God would be arriving in about 2 hours as they were traveling from the capital of the Great Song Kingdom at full speed.

Dante nodded and waited patiently. Before Xia Dongyin came back with Liang, a strong aura made itself known to Green Wind City, causing the faces of everyone with some power to change.

However, the aura rapidly approached the Supreme Martial Hall and converged, becoming indistinct from normalcy. This caused everyone to have countless speculations since the original overwhelming aura that caused many of them to level up also came from there.

Within the hall, though, an old woman appeared in the administration hall beside Hao Donglei. She looked to be in her late fifties, with graying hair tied into a bun and very slight wrinkles on her face.

She was freakishly tall at almost 6 foot 6 and had a somewhat voluptuous body that had not even begun to sag, like it hadn't realized what age it was. She wore a long Daoist robe and had fluctuations of potent Blood Qi around her since she was using her full power to rush over previously.

Looking at her, Jia Susu seemed moved and inspired, as if looking at what she wanted to become in the future. Hao Donglei looked at her with utter respect and obeisance, a hint of filial affection as well.

As for Dante, he was surprised because he sensed that she had the aura of extreme stability in her realm, meaning she was not a low-level Martial God but a relative moderate one. On top of that, his superior senses could detect that she had the aura of lightning on her, meaning she practiced a lightning element Internal Art.

Tsk, no wonder the Supreme Martial Hall was so powerful that even the Great Song Kingdom and all nearby kingdoms were forced to have its branches in every city. This is a top-notch Martial God who also had an Internal Art!

Who would not dare to give her face??

She also seemed to be checking out Dante, and what she sensed made her expression change greatly. "Perfection Internal Art! True Qi! You are a Heaven Immortal!"

That's right. Don't forget this was a martial arts wuxia world, not an immortal cultivation xianxia world. The realms and terms they used were different though some were generally similar.

The External Arts system was straightforward, and all the names were maintained. However, the Internal Arts system was a bit mixed due to influences from 'higher realms' down here.

Internal arts had up to 10 levels. The quality of the Internal Art was decided by the number of levels it had. However, that wasn't important, but what was actually relevant was the fact that actually achieving these stages as a practitioner afforded different titles.

Achieving the first level made one an Internal Disciple. Achieving the third level made one an Internal Master. Achieving the fifth level made one an Internal Grandmaster, while getting to the seventh level made one a Human Immortal.

Reaching the 9th level made one an Earth Immortal, and reaching the final tenth level, which for all Internal Arts condensed true Qi, made one a Heaven Immortal!

The gap between Early Immortal and Heaven Immortal was as far as the sky. Having reached the peak, Dante could affirm that Internal Force was like water that was filled with dirt and waste, while True Qi was like Mount Fiji water.

Her reaction was justified because Dante stood at the peak of this world in terms of realm. Internal Arts users were far superior and more respected than External Arts users due to their scarcity and the kind of power they would manifest.

As an Internal Disciple, an Internal Arts user - even without practicing External Arts - could defeat up to an early-stage Martial Blood realm warrior. An Internal Master could slaughter up to Martial Grandmasters, and an Internal Grandmaster could suppress any Martial God with ease.

The Human, Earth, and Heaven Immortals were in leagues of their own, living closer to the center of the world and controlling all the top resources and powers with ease.

However, Dante, a young man who casually sat before her, was one of them!
