He looked at the stars in the night sky while the wind blew. It was very comfortable, as if he could forget all his troubles.
“It’s a pity that my phone is out of battery. Otherwise, I could ask Chief Charles to get me some beer.”
Andrew muttered to himself.
As for returning to Boston in person, he was too lazy to go.
What Andrew didn’t know was that Chief Charles was busy at the moment.
Ever since he learned that the demon beasts had gathered at Dong Mountain and were going to launch a beast tide to attack Boston City, he began to set up defenses.
The entire Boston City was in a state of alert.
On the streets of the city, no one was allowed to go out at night.
The entire city was tranquil at this time.
Charles made one call after another. “Where’s the backup? Where’s the backup I want? There are more than a million people in Boston City, and they’re all living beings. Even if I, Charles, die in battle, I can’t defend so many people.”
He cursed at the person on the other end of the phone. Just as he hung up the phone, he started swearing again.
Damn it.
Wasn’t Andrew usually very active?
At such a critical time, he couldn’t even see him anymore.
At this moment, Johnson walked in from outside.
Charles rubbed his eyes. When he saw Johnson, he thought he was hallucinating.
The next moment, he pinched his own flesh and reacted.
He said happily, “Chief Johnson, you came in person? Good, that’s great. With you here, Boston will be safe.
“Otherwise, I thought Boston would be destroyed by the beast tide.”
Johnson smiled and said, “There’s no need to rush. There was an accident at Dong Mountain. One of the twelve Venerables of the Heavenly God Sect, Venerable Wuji, was killed by a mysterious expert.
“It’s still uncertain whether the Black Panther King will continue to launch the beast tide.”
When Charles heard this, he said in shock, “Venerable Wuji… is dead?”
This news made Charles extremely shocked.
Venerable Wuji had always been a concern in his heart.
Now he was actually dead?
Seeing Johnson nod his head did Charles burst into laughter. “He died well; he died well. This son of a b*tch has been hiding in the dark all these years and has caused a lot of trouble in Boston. He is the person-in-charge of the Heavenly God Sect’s Massachusetts Branch. Now that he is dead, the Massachusetts Branch no longer has a leader.
“Perhaps, our Martial Arts Administration Bureau can take this opportunity to do something.”
Johnson was not a member of the Martial Arts Administration Bureau.
He was the General Administrator of the Massachusetts region. Strictly speaking, he was an official warrior.
Shaking his head, Johnson said, “Venerable Wuji, although he is one of the twelve Venerables of the Heavenly God Sect, does the Heavenly God Sect really only have twelve eighth-grade warriors?
“Perhaps if one Venerable Wuji died today, another Venerable Wuji will appear tomorrow.”
When Charles heard that, the excitement from before disappeared.
Johnson’s analysis was also correct. He had indeed thought too little just now.
“Oh right, Master Johnson, who was the one who killed Venerable Wuji?”
Chapter 73 - Waiting For The Beast Tide

Johnson understood what Charles meant. He frowned and said, “When I rushed over, Venerable Wuji was already dead, and the person who killed him had also left.
“However, he killed Venerable Wuji and dozens of his subordinates in a short period and even forced Venerable Wuji to burn his golden body to self-destruct. This person has the strength of at least stage five or six levels of the Golden Body Realm.”
“Oh?”
Charles’s eyes moved.
Johnson continued, “This person used a saber. The only person who meets these two requirements as an eighth stage realm martial artist is Victor, the Saber King of Los Angeles.”
“Victor is stationed in Los Angeles. How would he have the time to come here and kill people?”
Charles’s eyes moved. He mentioned the saber expert from Tongzhou and made a judgment, “Johnson, is this person… a Holy Land martial artist?”
Johnson was also shocked.
He found the video in the warrior’s forum and repeated it five or six times.
With a serious face, he murmured, “Are the warriors of the Holy Land really coming out?”
Soon, Johnson turned his head and said, “Charles, I will report this to the higher-ups, but what we need to do now is to set up the defense of the city.
“Although the possibility of Black Panther King launching a beast tide will be greatly reduced with the death of Venerable Wuji, we still have to defend against it.”
“Okay!”
Charles already had countermeasures in place. He smiled and said, “I have contacted four seventh-grade warriors and two eighth-grade warriors to help defend the city.
“They will arrive in Boston this afternoon. With the help of these experts and Sir Johnson, I am relieved.”
Johnson smiled. “The time of the beast tide has been exposed. If Black Panther King wants to continue the beast tide, he must act quickly to prevent Boston City from having more time to react… it should be tonight.
“If the beast tide has not started after tonight, the beast tide will probably not start.”
…
At night, in the wilderness, in a dilapidated small town.
Andrew finished his barbecue and packed up his tools. Then, he took out a palm-sized golden body fragment from his storage space.
This was the golden body fragment that Venerable Wuji had dropped after his death.
Through Andrew’s careful observation, he discovered that this so-called golden body fragment was actually formed from blood qi, life force, and spiritual energy through a special combination.
In fact, when eighth-grade martial artists cultivated the golden body, they also used these three points to cultivate.
By combining blood qi, vitality, and spiritual energy, they could continuously strengthen the body.
Only in this way could they cultivate a powerful golden body.
Looking at the golden body fragment in his hand, Andrew circulated his spiritual energy and continuously attacked this golden body fragment…
After a moment, the golden body fragment finally couldn’t bear the impact and exploded.
It turned into a golden light in the air.
The next moment, the golden light entered Andrew’s body.
A large amount of vitality, blood qi power, and spiritual power instantly melted and became a part of Andrew’s body.
At this moment, he only felt that his body, bones, skin, and even his internal organs, every cell was undergoing a transformation.
This feeling lasted for around three minutes.
Finally, it stopped.
Andrew clenched his fist.
“Crack! Crack!”
The bones of his fist made a crunching sound.
In fact, when he clenched his fist, the air let out an explosive sound.
“My physical fitness is roughly equivalent to a peak third stage martial artist!”
Andrew glanced at his storage space.
There were still 12 golden body fragments inside.
“12 golden body fragments should be enough for my physical body to reach the peak sixth stage martial artist.”
But…
Andrew blinked his eyes.
Why did he feel that it was useless?
Was the physical body of a peak sixth stage martial artist very strong?
He thought for a while and put away the 12 golden body fragments.
These things were worth quite a bit of money.
Using it like this
was a complete waste of good stuff.
He glanced at the system.
There were still 64,000 strengthening points left.
At night, with nothing to do, Andrew prepared to draw a reward in the system to pass the time.
“Ding!”
“Congratulations, you have obtained a talisman: Water-controlling Talisman.”
Empty!
Empty!
“Ding!”
“Congratulations, you have obtained a talisman: Fire-controlling Talisman.”
20 lucky draws.
Apart from a recovery pill, Andrew only obtained two talismans.
Water-controlling and fire-controlling…
It sounded pretty good.
But to Andrew, who had already mastered the Innate Five-elements Limitless Escape Technique, it wasn’t of much use.
“Let’s have another 10 lucky draws.”
The next moment, another 10 lucky draws.
Empty…
Empty…
The empty draws again and again made Andrew a little angry.
This rubbish system was like this every time.
It caused him to waste a lot of strengthening points.
However, knowing the system’s routine, the first empty draw was followed by a big reward.
Finally, the tenth draw.
“Ding!”
“Congratulations, you have obtained the Great Luo Golden Immortal level body refining technique: Nine Transformations Golden Body Technique.”
Andrew was shocked.
He stood on the spot, unable to calm down for a long time.
Great Luo Golden Immortal level body refining technique?
From what he knew, the Great Luo Golden Immortal level was extremely high in the immortal cultivation.
In the immortal cultivation system, if the body refining realm was equivalent to level one, while the great Luo Golden Immortal level was level ten!
This was the strongest technique he had obtained so far.
Moreover, the body refinement technique was also what Andrew needed the most at the moment.
He gave it a try.
“Ding!”
“You have upgraded the Nine Transformations Golden Body Technique to the first major accomplishment, strengthening points -10,000 points.”
A golden light flashed on Andrew’s body.
He felt his physical body undergo a huge change in an instant.
He felt that there was a huge increase.
However, Andrew’s face turned black with displeasure.
The first upgrade required 10,000 strengthening points?
If he cultivated to the second upgrade, wouldn’t it require 100,000 strengthening points?
This… f*cking system, why didn’t it just rob him?
“Forget it. I won’t bother with this rubbish system. As long as I wait for the beast tide to arrive at night and kill them, I’ll earn back a few hundred thousand strengthening points.”
However…
Two hours had passed.
There was no movement.
He continued to wait.
Three hours…
Four hours…
Five hours…
The wilderness was still very quiet.
He continued to wait.
It was daybreak.
Andrew: “…”
Damn it!
Where was the beast tide that they had agreed on?
He thought to himself that the gathering of the demon beasts near Dong Mountain this time had caused a huge commotion. The intelligence departments of the military and the martial arts administration had definitely found out about it… The intelligence of these demon beasts was not low. If a beast tide were to erupt, they would definitely not give Boston any time to set up a defense!
This was something that Andrew was very clear about.
However…
It was already dawn. Why wasn’t the beast tide here yet?
“Could it be that I have overestimated the intelligence of the demon beasts?”
Andrew felt that this possibility was very high, so he decided to wait a little longer.
Until…
The next morning.
Andrew yawned and got out of his sleeping bag. He said, “What went wrong?”
Chapter 74 - Return To Boston
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
The demon beasts gathered near Dong Mountain.
The commotion was so big that all the surrounding cities knew about it. When Venerable Wuji was talking to his subordinates, Andrew heard it and revealed that the beast tide was going to attack Boston City.
However, it had already been two days, and it still hadn’t come?
Early in the morning, Andrew was deep in thought as he brushed his teeth, washed his face, and used the daily necessities that he had placed in his storage space.
Although the beast tide did not erupt, this was a good thing for the people of Boston City. However, it was not good news for Andrew.
He had bought so many talismans in the system yesterday.
“Thunder talisman”, “Fire talisman”, “Water Talisman”, etc.
It was for the purpose of attacking the beast tide.
And he had specially chosen this place that the beast tide had to pass through.
Unfortunately, the beast tide did not come. It was apparent how Andrew was feeling right now.
Looking at the time, it was already past eight o’clock in the morning.
If he rushed back to Boston City, he could still have a warm breakfast.
As he was thinking, he took out the jeep from his storage space.
He immediately started driving and returned to Boston.
…
Boston.
Within the Martial Arts Administration Bureau.
Charles had an excited expression on his face as he smiled. “Everyone, although the beast tide didn’t erupt, everyone coming over to support Boston City is giving me face. Don’t be polite today. I booked a big meal at the most luxurious hotel in the area. Everyone, come.”
With him were the four seventh-grade grandmasters, two eighth-grade Golden Body Realm experts, and one ninth-grade Sword Saint Johnson, the number one expert in the Massachusetts region.
At this moment, their expressions were relaxed.
The local intelligence department had already passed the information over.
Within the Great Dong Mountain, the demon beasts that had gathered had already dispersed.
From the vicinity of the Great Dong Mountain, they had returned to their respective territories.
An eighth stage Golden Body Realm brawny martial artist was somewhat displeased. He cursed, “It’s so early in the morning. What big meal do you want to eat?
“I heard that your Boston morning tea is pretty good. It’s a specialty. Let’s go have morning tea.”
…
A seventh stage grandmaster was somewhat speechless. He said, “Custer, you guys eat big meals every day in big cities. Of course, it’s not rare.”
Charles smiled and said, “Then let’s go have breakfast tea first. Then, we’ll continue eating at noon.”
The few grandmasters didn’t have any objections.
In fact, as martial arts grandmasters, they had a lot of things to do in a day. They were all very busy.
Basically, they didn’t have time to waste on eating.
In addition to cultivating and guarding their own areas, they also needed to support many places.
Or they could join forces with other experts to eliminate any possible dangers, such as demonic beasts that were about to advance to the seventh or eighth grade.
Before the demonic beasts became a real threat, they could directly eliminate the danger.
Today, the various grandmasters could be considered to have secretly given themselves a day off.
Johnson said, “Then we’ll wait here for another day. The beast tide might still erupt. It’s not too late for us to leave
tomorrow.
“Also, I’m very interested in that Grandmaster Thunderblade in your Boston City. I look forward to meeting him.”
At the mention of “Grandmaster Thunderblade,” the eyes of the few experts present lit up.
An eighteen-year-old martial arts grandmaster…
It really made people curious about what kind of genius this person was.
Everyone also seemed to know each other.
However, Charles’s face turned black.
He cursed in his heart. Damn it. Where did this kid Andrew go?
…
Across the Martial Arts Administration Bureau, there was a small street with a few restaurants and breakfast shops.
Including Charles, there were a total of eight people.
Each of them was a strong person who guarded a side. This lineup was an extremely strong existence in any place.
However, this group of people did not have any arrogance.
Instead, they were very kind.
They walked into a breakfast restaurant with a shabby jeep parked in front of the door.
It was already past ten o’clock.
At this time, there were not many people in the breakfast restaurant.
Most of them had finished their breakfast at seven or eight o’clock.
The people who had lunch had not arrived yet, so there were not many people in the restaurant.
Charles had just finished ordering and sat down when he saw a table not far away.
There was a very familiar figure over there.
Charles thought to himself, “Andrew?”
He noticed that Andrew was having a video call with a girl.
“Catherine, we’re not compatible!
“If you continue to harass me like this, do you believe that I’ll block you?”
Andrew was speechless.
Just as he charged his phone and turned it on, Catherine’s video call came in. She shamelessly said that Andrew didn’t love her anymore.
It was fine if he didn’t give him a present on her birthday yesterday, but she didn’t even see him.
As expected.
When Andrew threatened to block her, the little loli was stunned.
At the other end of the video call, Catherine didn’t dare to pester him anymore. But… she gritted her white teeth, looking aggrieved, and tears appeared in her eyes.
