Biochemical Martial Arts: Supreme Heavenly Venerate

``` What filled Wang Tianwu with despair was that no matter how many Array Plates he triggered, and no matter how powerful their divinity, he couldn't harm Lin Rui in the slightest, Instead of blocking his way, Lin Rui walked shoulder to shoulder with Wang Tianwu, his expression peaceful and at ease. It looked as if he was merely taking a leisurely stroll and chat with Wang Tianwu, "You know, it's been over a decade since we, master and apprentice, last met, right? I've always been puzzled. Why did you betray me back then?" Wang Tianwu's eyes bulged, and even his temples throbbed with bulging veins. Why betray Lin Rui? Simply because if he didn't betray, he would have died! Of the twenty fellow disciples who joined Lin Rui's Illusion Technique class with him, only three remained alive. By now, Wang Tianwu had given in to despair, knowing there was no chance for him to escape. The Array Plates Wang Tianwu had set up in the vicinity were now depleted, and his teacher Lin Rui, not only wielded incredibly skillful Illusion Techniques but also held immense wealth and power within the Earth Federation. This gave 'Lin Rui' access to the top-level combat suits and the most elite combat dragons. He also had two specially enhanced 9SS model 'Divine Servant' combat robots as his personal bodyguards. So at this moment, 'Lin Rui' wasn't even serious. After bewildering Wang Tianwu with his powerful Illusion Techniques, it was as if he was toying with him like a cat with a mouse. Yet, Wang Tianwu still didn't want to give up, wanting to struggle on. His life had been bought by the sacrifice of three senior brothers. These three asked for nothing in return but hoped that if Wang Tianwu could one day stand at the pinnacle of combat suit Illusion Techniques, surpassing them in skill, he could avenge them and their families. Thus, Wang Tianwu was unwilling to give up, even if he had only the faintest breath of strength left, he would fight to the end! Just then, Wang Tianwu's expression shifted as he looked up ahead. He saw dozens of mini nuclear missiles flying towards them. Their target, shockingly, was not Wang Tianwu, but 'Lin Rui'. What was astonishing was that these nuclear missiles hit 'Lin Rui' precisely, exploding in the empty space near Wang Tianwu and emitting a sun-like intense heat and light. Meanwhile, hundreds of plasma beam cannons fired towards 'Lin Rui.' Wang Tianwu took the opportunity to escape. After breaking free from 'Lin Rui's' Illusion Technique suppression, he fled in an instant, reaching three miles away. He heard 'Lin Rui's' furious and grating voice from behind, "Xu Mengran!" Wang Tianwu's pupils dilated, a mad joy appearing in his eyes. It was Xu Mengran who had arrived! Lin Rui's arch-enemy, the commander of the East Asia National Security, that two-star Emperor Level Marshal of combat suits! If not for the incomplete combat suit technology in his early years, this Transcendent Traveler would have been even stronger than Lin Rui. From behind, continuous roaring sounds could be heard. Besides the explosions of the mini nuclear bombs, the shrill sounds of clashing weapons also resonated. Wang Tianwu recognized that several Type 9 combat robots were battling each other. 'Lin Rui' was an expert in using combat robots, and so was Xu Mengran. For these Illusion Technicians, combat robots were their most reliable allies, even more dependable than their combat dragons. 'Lin Rui' had two 9SS grade combat robots crafted by a Mechanical Grandmaster, but Xu Mengran was even stronger in this aspect. Backed by the East Asia Science Academy, throughout his 600-year career as a Transcendent Traveler, he had built five SS+ grade combat robots, which allowed Xu Mengran to emerge victorious even against most ninth realm experts. In this environment, where combat dragons were not allowed, Xu Mengran's combat power was undoubtedly superior to 'Lin Rui's.' ``` As expected, Wang Tianwu managed to evade capture by Linghuan all the way during his escape. However, just as Wang Tianwu burst into a narrow ventilation duct 200 kilometers away and stopped to catch his breath, he unexpectedly received a friend request from Xu Mengran. Wang Tianwu frowned, and after confirming he was not dreaming and there were no signs of an Illusion Technique around him, he accepted Xu Mengran's request. Xu Mengran: "Wang Tianwu, do you want to live or die?" Wang Tianwu narrowed his eyes. He guessed that Xu Mengran wanted to use him as bait to lure out his teacher, but he answered without hesitation. Powerful Horse King (Wang Tianwu): "Of course I want to live, Marshal Sir. How would you like me to cooperate?" Wang Tianwu was now at his wit's end, with no cards left to play, If Xu Mengran was willing to use him as a pawn or bait, it would be a stroke of luck for him. As long as Xu Mengran didn't set him up to die, Wang Tianwu was willing to cooperate. Xu Mengran: "What do you mean, 'how to cooperate'? Do you think we can kill him? That guy just implanted another SSS+ grade prosthetic, and his power is nearly at the Emperor Level. I'm no longer his match. Currently, unless we can gather 20 combat robots with a fighting capability above the 9SS type, along with three Grandmasters who are not affected by his illusion techniques, no one can kill him." Xu Mengran: "However, there's a saying: 'There is a counter for every move,' and in this world, there are still those who can handle him. I'm sending you a link now; you go apply to be that person's bodyguard." Xu Mengran: "Oh, and make sure to equip all the prosthetics you took off. Your old set is no longer of any use against Linghuan. If you can't find a reliable prosthetic doctor, I can help you." Xu Mengran: "From now on, protect this person well! Trust me, he will inflict unprecedented damage on Linghuan, and may even bring about his demise." Wang Tianwu opened the link from Xu Mengran and stared blankly for a moment. It was a recruitment notice. The recruiter was someone named Lin Rui, with requirements of being above Martial Cultivator Realm 7, having bloodline power at the SS level, possessing strong martial power, a clean background, reliable loyalty, and the ability to provide 24-hour escort protection. The monthly salary was 350 million Federation dollars, including an SS+ prosthetic; a signing bonus of one billion Federation dollars, with a contract term of at least 200 years. Wang Tianwu frowned after reading it. This recruitment was aimed at high-level fighters at the 7SS level, and the salary was quite generous, somewhat appealing to white-path high-level fighters who dislike dirty work. However, the maintenance costs for his different prosthetics quoted by that birdman Fei Yunlai were as high as 500 million Federation dollars per month! Also, the contract time was excessively long. Wang Tianwu checked the information about Lin Rui and discovered that he was a newly-rising university martial arts star, hailed as having legendary talent! He already amassed 700 million fans, with over 50 million viewers for each livestream. The problem was that this guy was only at Martial Cultivator Realm 4; how could he possibly deal with his teacher? Powerful Horse King (Wang Tianwu): "Marshal, are you sure this young man can inflict heavy damage on Linghuan? Frankly, I'm in dire need of money recently. Besides, the job is recruiting Martial Cultivators at the 7SS level with clean backgrounds, and the contract term of 200 years is way too long." He felt Xu Mengran was setting him up. Wang Tianwu was willing to accept if Xu Mengran wanted him to protect someone. But 200 years? Wang Tianwu was not willing to slavishly serve someone for that long. Xu Mengran: "You're at the Emperor Level, Martial Cultivator Realm 8. You can totally negotiate the price! Your identity is not clean enough, but at least you have no criminal record. As for the financial aspect, don't worry. If you take his job, I can help you unfreeze those banks and underground financial accounts." Xu Mengran: "Moreover, I'm certain he can inflict heavy damage on Linghuan and can assure your safety. Also, this might be your only chance in life to defeat Linghuan and avenge your fellow disciples!" Xu Mengran: "Xu always conducts himself honorably and straightforwardly; I never deceive or lie. Whether to accept his recruitment is for you to consider." Wang Tianwu looked at Xu Mengran's reply, his face changing colors. At that moment, he received another message from Linghuan. Linghuan: "I will find you!"
