Chapter 132 - Federation Marshal
In the alternate space, one could not see the dazzling starry sky in the normal cosmic space. The flying speed that exceeded the speed of light made any physical object turn into nothingness in the alternate space. If one looked through the window of the spaceship, they could only see endless darkness.
Chu Nan only glanced out of the window of the room before feeling bored and obediently retracted his gaze. He looked around and was very satisfied with the environment deep inside.
The one-star VIP card from the Noctem Chamber of Commerce that he had obtained from Yu Tingfeng was really not bad. Not only did it allow him to wait in the comfortable VIP room before boarding the ship, but it also directly assigned him a high-level private room that could only be taken by the top-notch VIP members after he boarded the ship.
The area of this room was as large as his dormitory in West Cloud Academy. Not only was there a huge double bed, but there was also an entire set of matching wardrobe seats. The arrangements in all aspects looked even cleaner, beautiful, and tidy than most bedrooms in ordinary families. There was even a trace of luxuriousness.
This was the first time Chu Nan had enjoyed such treatment when he was on a civilian spaceship in his life.
He took out the exquisite card from his pocket and glanced at it. Chu Nan casually threw it on the table and lay on the bed. He held his head with both hands and carefully recalled what Dunleavy had said.
Chu Nan did not expect the phrase “Federation Army” to come out of Dunleavy’s mouth.
As a citizen of the Earth Federation, he was naturally not unfamiliar with the Federation Army. Moreover, when he saw the recruitment advertisement when he was young, his blood boiled and he had the thought of joining the army.
However, he had long forgotten about the Federation Army.
It should be said that Dunleavy’s suggestion was not nonsense. Ever since they stepped into the era of the Great Milky Way, the Earth Federation had been deeply affected by the Declan Empire like the other countries on the Orion Arm. Therefore, they valued martial arts very much.
As the army of the Earth Federation, other than powerful cosmic battleships and various high-tech weapons, the martial arts attainments of the soldiers were also of utmost importance.
This was because powerful martial arts attainment represented a powerful physical body. This not only increased the ability of the soldiers to operate various weapons and fight greatly, but even in the most difficult situation, their willpower would be far stronger than ordinary people and they would still be able to unleash powerful combat strength.
Therefore, in all the recruitment advertisements of the Federation Army, they emphasized the priority of recruiting martial artists.
In the current Federation Army, almost all the first-line combat troops were filled with low-level martial artists.
Overlord Body Realm Martial Artists had the chance to become the most ordinary soldiers of the federation. Once Internal Breath Realm Martial Artists joined the army, if they were slightly outstanding, they might become officers.
Further up, it was not strange for powerful Void Break Martial Artists and even Heaven Control Realm experts to appear among the high-level officers.
In fact, the current commander-in-chief of the federation’s army, Marshal Chemekov, was one of the eleven Star-Grade Martial Artists in the federation. He was famous for his S-rank external martial technique, the Thunder God Palm, and his nickname was ‘Thunder God’.
Due to this tradition, the martial arts atmosphere in the Federation Army was quite intense. Moreover, it was said that there were countless martial arts inheritances that belonged to the army.
If a martial artist joined the Federation Army and was lucky to make a contribution, they might obtain a martial technique inheritance according to their contributions.
The Federation Army had even become the goal of many martial artists, especially low-level martial artists.
If Chu Nan joined the Federation Army, he would have the chance to obtain a powerful martial technique inheritance and increase his strength.
Of course, this was not the true reason why Dunleavy proposed for Chu Nan to join the Federation Army.
This was because he knew very well that Chu Nan’s greatest problem was that it was almost impossible for him to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate.
In this aspect, the Federation Army was the same as Star Cloud Academy. In fact, they were not much different.
There was only one reason why he proposed for Chu Nan to join the Federation Army, and that was Marshal Chemekov.
It was said that before Marshal Chemekov joined the federation army, he was only a very ordinary and inconspicuous Overlord Body Realm Martial Artist.
However, after joining the Federation Army, his strength had soared all the way until he successfully broke through to the Star-Grade Martial Artist 17 years ago and took over the position of the commander-in-chief.
“Marshal Chemekov joined the army at the age of 17. At that time, he was already close to adulthood. Although no one knows if he broke through to the Internal Breath Realm after he became an adult or before he became an adult, I think his experience might be able to give you some reference.”
The last sentence that Dunleavy said echoed in Chu Nan’s mind, but it could only make him smile bitterly. Marshal Chemekov was one of the only eleven Star-Grade Martial Artists in the federation. How could his experience be used as a reference?
The appearance of every Star-Grade Martial Artist was accompanied by extremely powerful talent, extraordinary hard work, and indispensable luck.
Therefore, the path of every Star-Grade Martial Artist was unique and impossible to replicate.
His experience might be able to give Chu Nan some reference value, but before talking about the exact value, even if Chu Nan joined the Federation Army, what qualifications did he have to see the high and mighty Marshal Chemekov and receive his personal guidance?
“In the end, it’s still too far away.”
Chu Nan shook his head and suppressed Dunleavy’s suggestion into the depths of his mind.
Now, he could not set his goal so far. Before thinking of a way to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate, he had to first solidify his foundation.
No matter what, he had to at least become an Internal Breath Realm Martial Artist before actually considering the problem of the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate.
Chu Nan took a deep breath and eliminated all the distracting thoughts in his mind before mobilizing a trace of Internal Breath.
After successfully breaking through to the fourth level of the Nine Revolutions Technique, when Chu Nan cultivated the Nine Revolutions Technique, his Internal Breath would circle around the newly opened nine main meridians and 27 secondary meridians before returning to his dantian and strengthening.
Compared to cultivating the third level of the Nine Revolutions Technique, it was undoubtedly more complicated.
However, strictly speaking, this fourth level of the Nine Revolutions Technique was actually the same as the third level. It was strengthened through the circulation of Internal Breath in fixed meridians.
However, now that he was cultivating the fourth level, because his Internal Breath had circled more meridians and obtained more meridian enhancement, the circulation of his Internal Breath increased the strength of his Internal Breath every cycle.
Chu Nan specially compared it.
When he was cultivating the third level of the Nine Revolutions Internal Breath, he had already been able to ensure the best circulation route through countless experiments. Therefore, every cycle he circulated, the increase in the strength of his Internal Breath was basically stable at around 0.15%.
After breaking through to the fourth level, the circulation of his Internal Breath increased the strength of those newly opened meridians, and the increase obtained the corresponding increase.
According to the result of completing a cycle just now, the strength of his Internal Breath had increased by 0.163381%. In comparison, it could be said that it did not increase much compared to the third level.
A month and a half ago, he had broken through to the fourth level of the Nine Revolutions Technique and discovered this problem.
However, at that time, his meridians had just recovered, and his body was even weaker. There was no foundation for him to make bold corrections.
Now that he had nothing to do on the spaceship, he could give it a try.
