Starting From The Equal Opportunity To Become A Saint

Chapter 29: Martial Arts Advisor, the Arrival of a Monster!

After Hong Yuxun left, the pressure on Liu Zimo suddenly decreased.

Although before leaving, Hong Yuxun gave him a warning look, indicating that he should behave and not make any moves.

Just in case, two guards armed with heavy firearms were specially called to protect Wu Canshuai.

If Liu Zimo made any unusual movements, even if he was at the Iron Bone Realm, he wouldn't be able to withstand the attack of heavy firearms.

However, Liu Zimo didn't care about this at all.

Immediately after Hong Yuxun left, he took out the other two volumes of the "Awakening Technique" that he had prepared in his arms and placed them in front of Wu Songyang.

"Leader, I want to exchange these two spiritual secret techniques for three 'Body Tempering Pills' with you. Is that possible?"

Yes, this is the reason why Liu Zimo was willing to follow Hong Yuxun to the Military Affairs Department.

He wanted to take this opportunity to exchange three "Body Tempering Pills" from the Military Affairs Department for his father, uncle, and younger brother, which would be enough to help them step into the path of martial arts.

Otherwise, with the "trash" aptitude of his father and the others, even with the "Guided Breathing Technique" and the first wave of spiritual baptism to enhance their physique, it would still take at least a year to have a chance of successfully tempering their bodies.

And one year's time is too long and too dangerous in the apocalypse.

Liu Zimo didn't want his father, uncle, and younger brother to live in endless anxiety and fear every day, just like he did in his previous life, because they were unable to fight against monsters.

If it weren't for this purpose, even if Liu Zimo couldn't defeat Hong Yuxun, he had his own means to get rid of Hong Yuxun's control and wouldn't obediently follow him to the Military Affairs Department.

"Oh?" Wu Songyang looked up at Liu Zimo with some surprise. "How did you know that I have 'Body Tempering Pills' here?"

"Oh, I see. It must be your master, the prophet, who told you!"

Before Liu Zimo could answer, Wu Songyang came up with the answer himself.

He looked down at the spiritual secret techniques that Liu Zimo had placed on the table and said softly,

"Not to mention these two sets of 'Awakening Techniques,' just the 'Guided Breathing Technique' and the 'Five Animal Fist' that you posted on the internet are enough to exchange for more martial arts resources from me."

"Only three 'Body Tempering Pills' are not enough to compensate for your contribution to the people of Da Xia."

"Liu Zimo, have you considered joining our Military Affairs Department? I can make the decision and provide you with cultivation resources second only to Mr. Hong, helping you soar in the path of martial arts!"

Upon hearing Wu Songyang's words, the two guards standing behind Wu Songyang as bodyguards couldn't help but show a hint of surprise in their eyes.

They didn't expect that the young man in front of them, who was even smaller than them, was the mysterious person who posted the "Guided Breathing Technique" and the "Five Animal Fist" on the internet.

No wonder he could receive a personal invitation from General Wu Song.

The importance of the "Guided Breathing Technique" and the "Five Animal Fist" was self-evident, as they were now the basic exercises that every soldier of Da Xia must learn.

"Well..." Liu Zimo murmured, not giving a direct answer.

If it were in his previous life, facing the recruitment of such a big figure as General Wu Song, Liu Zimo would definitely accept it gladly and be overjoyed.

After all, in the apocalypse, the Military Affairs Department was a big tree and the cornerstone of the Federation's reconstruction of order and stability in the apocalypse. It was good to have the support of a big tree.

But now, Liu Zimo became somewhat hesitant.

His identity as a reborn person and the existence of his "Stealing Heaven" ability made him have to act cautiously, especially before he had absolute self-defense power. Joining the Military Affairs Department might not necessarily be a good thing for him.

"Thank you for your kind offer, but I don't plan to stay in the capital. My family is in Luozhou, and I..."

"I understand!" Wu Songyang nodded. "It's difficult to leave one's homeland and hard to part with family. It's only natural. I won't force you to stay in the capital, nor will I force you to join the Military Affairs Department. How about giving you the status of an external advisor, just like Mr. Hong?"

"You won't be under any control, free to come and go, and no one will force you to do anything against your will."

"At the same time, as the martial arts advisor of the Military Affairs Department, you will not only receive a certain amount of martial arts resources subsidy every month, but also have the right to purchase scarce resources in priority."

"And what you need to do is to abide by the bottom line of the law, not engage in any illegal activities or acts of violence. When the Military Participation Department needs it, you will step forward to solve some troubles and problems within your capabilities."

"How about these conditions?"

Liu Zimo's eyes lit up unexpectedly. He didn't expect Wu Songyang to offer such lenient and generous conditions. It could be said that he was sincere.

If he still didn't agree to such conditions, then he would truly be ignorant and inexperienced.

At the same time, he also understood why martial saints and grandmasters like Hong Yuxun, as well as later figures like Lou Yuchen and Zhiyuanshengshi, were willing to join the Federation and become part of the future Military Participation Department.

There are few martial arts masters who can refuse such open and generous conditions.

"In that case, I will accept it gratefully!"

Liu Zimo finally stopped hesitating and nodded in agreement.

"Very good! Advisor Liu, welcome to join!"

Wu Songyang laughed loudly and warmly reached out his right hand to shake hands with Liu Zimo.

Just now, Hong Yuxun had already secretly transmitted information to him about Liu Zimo's cultivation level. At such a young age, he had already broken through to the Iron Bone Realm and even defeated two of Hong Lao's true disciples in actual combat.

Such a martial prodigy, as long as he doesn't die prematurely, will definitely become the next Hong Yuxun.

Moreover, he is also a disciple who seems to possess the ability of a prophet. Those who are valued by the "Prophet" will not be ordinary people in the future.

That's why Wu Songyang took the opportunity to extend an olive branch to him and gave him the position of a martial arts advisor.

Seeing Liu Zimo's gaze once again falling on the "Awakening Technique" on the table, Wu Songyang knew what he was thinking and said directly:

"Advisor Liu, rest assured, I will have someone fetch the three 'Body Tempering Pills' you need for you."

"And as for these two sets of 'Awakening Technique' manuals, I won't ask for them for free. I will directly include them in the Martial Arts Library with a cost of five hundred military merits. What do you think?"

After speaking, Wu Songyang also took the opportunity to explain to Liu Zimo what military merits were and how they could be exchanged for various resources in the Military Participation Department.

Liu Zimo nodded happily.

The method of exchanging resources for military merits had long been popularized in the future. Every resident within the Federation could obtain military merits by hunting and killing demonic beasts or donating resources.

Therefore, the role and value of military merits were clear.

Five hundred military merits, even if it was placed thirty years later, would still be a considerable wealth. It could be exchanged for many precious materials, let alone now.

Seeing that Liu Zimo had no objections, Wu Songyang directly instructed the guard beside him:

"Xiao Wang, go to the Martial Arts Library and fetch three 'Body Tempering Pills' for Advisor Liu!"

"At the same time, send these two sets of 'Awakening Technique' manuals to the library as well. Remember to inform Zhu Keshou and temporarily record five hundred military merits for Advisor Liu. After Advisor Liu's relevant information and documents are completed, transfer the military merits directly to Advisor Liu's name!"

"Yes!"

A guard standing behind Wu Songyang responded loudly, reached out to take the 'Awakening Technique' manuals, and turned to leave.

With the goal achieved, Liu Zimo's mind relaxed slightly, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the sky outside the window.

At this moment, the huge vortex hanging over the earth had stopped rotating, and countless black smoke was surging out from within the vortex. In the blink of an eye, it turned the day completely into night.

They're coming!

Liu Zimo's relaxed mind suddenly became tense again.

Roar!

A earth-shattering roar came from the vortex in the void, followed by the collective roar of countless beasts, shaking the heavens and the earth.

Endless spiritual energy gushed out from the vortex, and countless black shadows descended from the sky, randomly falling in every corner of the world, revealing their sharp fangs to every living creature they encountered.

The outbreak of spiritual energy, the invasion of demonic beasts!

The true end of the world has arrived!
