Ye Lingchen did not say anything. He merely touched Old Tortoise's shell, his eyes gleaming.
"What happened to you guys?" Chen Qi asked solemnly.
Ye Lingchen looked at him. "Above the Innate Stage is … the King Stage?"
"You guys encountered a King Stage?" Chen Qi's pupils shrank suddenly. Although he had some guesses, he was still extremely shocked!
One had to know that there were no King Stage powerhouses in the new district of Capital City. Any King Stage powerhouse was powerful enough to rule over an area and was a treasure to any country.
Ye Lingchen nodded. "A new permanent Hell's Gate opened nearby. After we discovered it, we encountered a King Stage powerhouse from the Stick Nation."
After that, Ye Lingchen briefly explained what happened to him.
A new Hell's Gate?
A King Stage powerhouse from the Stick Nation?
This news was so significant that Chen Qi was momentarily lost in thought.
He quickly figured out the crux of the matter. "The Stick Nation was afraid that you guys would leak the news, so they wanted to silence you?"
"That's right." Ye Lingchen nodded. "The location of Hell's Gate is in the international waters between us and the Stick Nation. I'm afraid the Stick Nation has already arranged for people to occupy it."
"Hmph, since it's international waters, it's not something they can monopolize!" Chen Qi's eyes narrowed and a cold glint flashed across them.
"Are there many King Stage powerhouses in the Stick Nation?" Ye Lingchen suddenly asked.
"Not many, only three in total." Chen Qi explained, "There are very few King Stage powerhouses in the entire world. Moreover, whether it's us or the Stick Nation, the King Stage powerhouses came from Buff Island. It's the first Void Realm to be conquered by humans. There are more resources and the spiritual energy is denser. Only there can King Stage powerhouses be cultivated."
Buff Island was equivalent to the base camp of humans. It was jointly controlled by various countries and provided resources to the world.
"What are the names of these three people from the Stick Nation?"
Chen Qi's expression changed slightly, then he said solemnly, "Kid Ye, don't do anything rash. The strength of a King Stage powerhouse far exceeds that of an Innate Stage powerhouse. They're not on the same level at all."
"I know. I've fought them before." Ye Lingchen's voice was indifferent.
"It is indeed impressive that you were able to escape from a King Stage martial artist, but I can guarantee that the King Stage powerhouse was not serious at the start. Otherwise, he could have killed you instantly!"
The old man wanted to capture him alive from the very beginning. Every casual move he made required Ye Lingchen to use all his strength to block it. There was also the last move. Despite being hundreds of meters away and being heavily blocked by Ye Lingchen, he was still able to injure Old Tortoise to this extent. It was evident how powerful he was.
Ye Lingchen shrugged. "I know. I'm not thinking of fighting him to the death right now, but this person … I must kill him!"
Chen Qi frowned slightly. "The unique characteristic of a King Stage martial artist is that they can fly. They do not rely on Qinggong, but they have the ability to fly. Their legs can stand in the air as if they were walking on flat ground. Every King Stage martial artist is extremely precious, not only to the various countries, but even to the Earth. If you want to kill such a martial artist, I'm afraid no one will agree."
"That's my own business. Just tell me their names."
Chen Qi sighed slightly. "Kim Yuantu, Che Shien, Sung-Yoon Lee. These three people all started their careers in Taekwondo and Judo in the Stick Nation. In China's words, they are definitely one-in-a-million martial arts prodigies. Kim Yuantu specializes in Taekwondo and is extremely skilled in leg attacks. Che Shien practices Muay Thai and has amazing explosive power. The one you met should be Sung-Yoon Lee, whose Judo is superb."
China had obviously collected information on those people, and Chen Qi knew them very well.
Sung-Yoon Lee.
Ye Lingchen remembered that name and included it in his must-kill list. His next small goal was to kill him. That guy could be proud. He was the first person Ye Lingchen had listed as a mortal enemy.
"Minister Chen, I've seen some divisions of cultivation realms. Is the realm above the Innate Stage also known as Three Flowers at One's Prominence?"
"King Stage is the name for the strong, and Three Flowers at One's Prominence is the division of realms. That's right."
"Can you tell me about it?"
Chen Qi nodded. "An Innate Stage martial artist mainly cultivates innate spiritual power. You're already in the mid-level of the Innate Stage. Once you've cultivated the innate spiritual power in your body, you'll be at the peak of the Innate Stage. Reaching Three Flowers at One's Prominence is another type of transformation for innate qi. At that time, the spiritual power and the physical body will fuse, and the three flowers at the top of your head will be reborn. You'll truly be able to use the physical body as the path.
"No wonder," Ye Lingchen muttered.
When he used the waves to attack Sung-Yoon Lee, Sung-Yoon Lee often used his body to knock it away. He was certainly not like Ye Lingchen who practiced endurance kung fu, but his physical body was surprisingly strong. It turned out that there would be a rebirth after reaching the King Stage.
In that case, if he practiced endurance kung fu …
Perhaps seeing through Ye Lingchen's thoughts, Chen Qi directly said, "Your situation is very special. Not only is your martial arts powerful, but your endurance kung fu is also very high. Your combat power is very strong among your peers, and it will be easier to break through Three Flowers at One's Prominence. However, once you reach the King Stage, your physical advantage will not be much."
Chen Qi could not help but show a look of envy when he said that. He did not know how Ye Lingchen cultivated. Endurance kung fu was difficult to practice. Ye Lingchen's high attainments in it and his martial arts were also very powerful. Most importantly, he was so young. Even when he was in his mother's womb, his cultivation speed was not that fast.
The most difficult part of the Three Flowers at One's Prominence realm was the process of the innate spiritual power and the physical body merging. However, it was not difficult at all for Ye Lingchen because he had already merged it well. Once Ye Lingchen reached the peak of the Innate Stage, he might really be able to directly enter the Three Flowers at One's Prominence realm.
That was also the reason why the Warrior's Department valued Ye Lingchen so much. He had the potential to become a King Stage and could already be regarded as half a King Stage.
Ye Lingchen gritted his teeth, not expecting such benefits.
At that moment, Chen Qi said, "Little Ye, that sea is not far from Miracle Island, right?"
Ye Lingchen looked at him and chuckled. "Miracle Island is mine. I won't sell it no matter how much you pay."
He had long thought of that possibility. The opening of Hell's Gate would make Miracle Island's location extremely special. The Warrior's Department would definitely have their eyes on Miracle Island.
What a joke. He had spent so much effort and had even completed the planning. There was no way he would give up.
Chen Qi smiled awkwardly when Ye Lingchen saw through him. He had also guessed that Ye Lingchen would say that, but the situation was very special. Once it was reported, the Warrior's Department would definitely focus on it.
"Minister Chen, there are many islands around here. You don't have to target my Miracle Island. Let me give you another suggestion. Why don't you take this opportunity to tell the Warrior's Department about my idea and let me open a martial arts school? That way, the students of the martial arts school can also shoulder the responsibility of keeping an eye on that Hell's Gate. "
