The Martial Artist System of the Human Federation can almost be considered an extremely unique existence among all the races of cultivators.

When breaking through the seventh, even the eighth or ninth stage, there will always be the presence of an External Tribulation.

Although cultivators from other systems also encounter situations similar to External Tribulations, compared to the Martial Artists' External Tribulation, theirs are much less challenging.

Under such circumstances, when Lu Sheng breaks through to the seventh level in the Martial Arts Realm, it will cause certain disturbances, but overall, nothing too significant will occur.

This led to Lu Sheng smoothly breaking through to Martial Saint, and it's possible that the presence of Duke Wei was Lu Sheng's External Tribulation.

"Duke Wei is dead, and now... it means standing completely on the opposite side of the Great Wei imperial court!"

"In such a situation, there's no point in hiding anymore, let's make a move directly!"

Lu Sheng spoke softly, his gaze fixed on Mo Tianji not far away.

For the current Lu Sheng, having killed Duke Wei is definitely a provocation to the entire Great Wei dynasty.

No matter the reason Duke Wei targeted Lu Sheng,

after all, Duke Wei was a founding Duke of the Great Wei dynasty. In such a case, with Duke Wei dead, the Great Wei dynasty will absolutely not let this go.

They might even directly strike against Lu Sheng.

At this moment, Lu Sheng has fully secured the reputation of a rebel.

Since that is the case, Lu Sheng sees no reason to delay any longer, as confrontation is inevitable. As for whether the progenitor of the Great Wei dynasty will act, Lu Sheng doesn't know.

But what Lu Sheng can do now, is to collect resources as much as possible and find higher-level places for physical training.

Only in this way can he better enhance his cultivation and only in this way can he stand against Martial God experts.

"Now, although I can mobilize more of my body's power, the combat strength I can unleash is barely on par with a peak Martial Saint."

"There is still a significant gap with Martial God experts; to contend with Martial Gods... at least I must reach late-stage Martial Saint, or even peak Martial Saint!"

Lu Sheng spoke softly.

Soon after, Lu Sheng's figure appeared in front of Mo Tianji.

Mo Tianji looked at Lu Sheng in front of him, his entire body trembling continuously from fear, his eyes filled with nothing but endless terror.

"You... what do you want to do??"

Mo Tianji's voice trembled at this time.

His uncle, father, and even grandfather all died at Lu Sheng's hands; at this moment, Mo Tianji's killing intent towards Lu Sheng had already transformed into fear.

He feared Lu Sheng's power and also feared Lu Sheng taking action against him.

"Naturally... to kill you!"

Lu Sheng spoke softly, giving Mo Tianji no chance to refute, as a Suppressing Power descended between heaven and earth, instantly crushing Mo Tianji's body into pulp, turning into a pool of flesh.

After completing all this, Lu Sheng also collected all the resources carried by those Venerable Realm experts and in the Profound Ring owned by Duke Wei.

After all, these are the accumulated resources of Venerable and even Martial Saint experts, which are enough for Lu Sheng to cultivate for a period of time.

"With these resources, even if I can't elevate my cultivation to late-stage Martial Saint, I can at least get infinitely close to that step."

"By that time... even if those Martial Saint experts from the Great Wei dynasty make a move, I won't be afraid!"

Lu Sheng looked at the resources in the Profound Ring with some satisfaction.

...

At the court of the Great Wei dynasty.

The entire court seemed extremely oppressive at this time, as if some fury was about to sweep across the whole court.

For a moment, neither the nobles nor the ministers in the court spoke a word.

There was only endless silence.

Meanwhile, on the throne in the court, the Emperor of Great Wei sat quietly, looking at the silent ministers below, filled with frustration.

"Speak! All of you speak!"

"Aren't you all usually quite talkative? Why has everyone suddenly become mute here now??"

"Hmm?"

The furious voice of the Emperor of Great Wei exploded in the court, accompanied by a powerful aura, instantly permeating the entire court.

Both the Dukes at the Martial Saint level and the Marquis at the Venerable Realm kept their heads down, not daring to say a word.

Just shortly before, the news of Duke Wei being slain by the rebellious Fengxing County's son had reached the court.

This news had caused tremendous shock to the entire court, as none of them had expected Duke Wei, who was at mid-stage Martial Saint, to be killed by a Fengxing County's son.

This news gave them all quite a jolt.

"Ha! Didn't you all say that the son of Fengxing County was a rebel? Didn't you all claim you could easily suppress him?"

"And now? What's the situation now?"

"Duke Wei is dead! Our mid-stage Martial Saint Duke is dead! Slain by this Fengxing County's son!!"

The Emperor of Great Wei sneered as he spoke, looking at them with eyes full of mockery.

"Your Majesty, I think the priority now is to dispatch troops and thoroughly suppress the son of Fengxing County!"

A minister spoke rapidly at this time.

His words gained the agreement of many.

In their view, although the Fengxing County's son was powerful, he stood no chance against the imperial army and would only have a dead end!

In this situation, suppressing the son of Fengxing County was merely a matter of reaching out their hands!

"Hmph! Easier said than done! Who will suppress him? You??"

"Don't forget, Duke Wei died at the hands of this Fengxing County's son!"

A nobleman snorted coldly, looking rather displeased at the minister who had spoken earlier.

These civil officials are always like this, thinking that suppressing a Martial Saint expert is that easy?

Even suppressing someone who can kill a mid-stage Martial Saint is that easy?

One must know that Duke Wei's strength was ranked among the top three among the Dukes in the entire Great Wei dynasty.

And the opponent's strength visibly surpassed that of Duke Wei, making suppression not so easy!

In an instant, the debate between the two sides erupted in the court, just like lit cotton, spreading to every corner of the court.

The Emperor of Great Wei sat on the dragon throne, watching the argument below, his expression turning even more grim.
