If one were to ask who was the strongest among the 11 Star-Grade Martial Artists of the Earth Federation, because these 11 supreme experts had never fought each other, they would definitely have their own opinions.

However, if there was anyone who was the most famous, the most familiar to the citizens of the Earth Federation, and the person who appeared the most in public, it would definitely be Marshal Chemekov.

As the supreme commander of the Earth Federation Army, as long as it was something related to the Earth Federation’s military, Marshal Chemekov would always appear.

Not only was he an existence that most of the martial artists in the federation had to look up to, but he was also an idol that many ordinary citizens of the federation had to look up to.

However, as a martial artist and also an ordinary citizen of the Earth Federation, this was the first time Chu Nan had personally seen Marshal Chemekov. He was not excited at all, but extremely nervous.

It was not about being excited or nervous, nor was it because this was the first time he had faced the top figure of the federation. Instead, it was because he felt danger and was instinctively nervous.

Standing in front of Marshal Chemekov, Chu Nan felt as if he was standing in front of a bloodthirsty ancient ferocious beast, causing him to feel a strong sense of danger. He even ran away at the first moment.

However, logic told Chu Nan that it was impossible for Marshal Chemekov to have any ill intentions towards him. Otherwise, it was impossible for him to stand in front of him or be completely dead the moment he saw him. It was impossible for him to struggle or resist.

In front of a Star-Grade Martial Artist, he was definitely not more resistant than a small worm.

Therefore, although he still could not help but feel an intense sense of danger and fear, Chu Nan still relied on his powerful data ability to strictly control every inch of his muscles and ensure that they did not beat abnormally.

After seeing Marshal Chemekov and bowing side by side, he realized the marshal had been staring at him in silence.

Since he did not speak, Chu Nan could only maintain his silence. He stood up straight, raised his head, and puffed out his chest, forcing himself to calmly look into Marshal Chemekov’s eyes.

The pressure this brought to Chu Nan was extremely great, and as time passed, it became greater and greater.

At this moment, Chu Nan even felt that the dangerous aura and killing intent on Marshal Chemekov’s body were practically material. It completely filled the wide room and made it impossible for him to dodge.

Should he escape?

No!

Chu Nan gently gritted his teeth and shook off the thought in his mind. He circulated a trace of weak Internal Breath from his dantian and quickly circulated all the meridians in his body.

With this trace of Internal Breath, Chu Nan finally felt a trace of aura that he was still alive.

However, perhaps Chu Nan’s action had triggered a switch, but he suddenly discovered that the expression on Marshal Chemekov’s face had changed slightly. He immediately felt a powerful pressure assault him and almost pressed him to the ground.

Chu Nan was shocked. With a thought, he quickly mobilized his Internal Breath in his dantian and circulated it throughout his body before barely resisting this pressure.

However, as his Internal Breath increased, the pressure also increased.

Chu Nan could only strengthen his Internal Breath again.

The pressure increased again.

Just like that, the pressure increased again and again, and the Internal Breath Chu Nan mobilized also increased bit by bit. In the end, he was even forced to mobilize his high-level Internal Breath to circulate throughout his body to resist this powerful pressure.

Soon, the Internal Breath he mobilized had already reached the limit of what his current meridians could endure—the Fifth Revolution Internal Breath of the Nine Revolutions Technique.

However, the pressure was still increasing.

Feeling that his entire body was about to be unable to endure this powerful pressure, and even his knees were creaking because he could not endure it, Chu Nan gritted his teeth and his Internal Breath quickly circulated in his meridians again. He prepared to use the Sixth Revolution Internal Breath that he had never used before.

However, just as his Internal Breath began to circulate the sixth time, the extremely terrifying pressure on his body suddenly disappeared.

This was completely beyond Chu Nan’s expectations. He was caught off guard and did not have the time to retract his Internal Breath. The powerful Internal Breath that had already condensed in his entire body instantly surged out violently.

Bang!

It was as if he had transformed into a bomb. A powerful air explosion exploded with Chu Nan as the center. Not only did it blow up a pit in the ground he was standing on, but the air wave also blew up everything in a two-meter radius around him and swept towards the west with the residue on the ground.

However, after this powerful air wave flew out for about two meters, it was as if it had touched a transparent wall and was forcefully blocked without any effect.

Seeing the residue swept up by the air wave land and pile into a circle two meters away from him, Chu Nan understood and focused his gaze on Marshal Chemekov who was still sitting opposite him.

Seeing Chu Nan’s gaze shoot over, the corners of Marshal Chemekov’s mouth curled up into a smile, instantly softening his originally murderous expression.

“That’s right.” Marshal Chemekov nodded. “To be able to stand in front of me for so long proves that you have the value to let me help you.”

How could Chu Nan not understand that Marshal Chemekov was testing him earlier? He immediately bowed respectfully to him again.

“Thank you, Marshal.”

After bowing, he raised his head to look at Marshal Chemekov again and heaved a sigh of relief. This was the first time he had the time and mood to size up this Federation God of War.

Marshal Chemekov was already more than 60 years old this year, but as an extremely powerful Star-Grade Martial Artist, time did not leave much mark on his face. His face looked similar to a middle-aged man around 40 years old. His face was square, and his facial features were not very special. However, they were very simple and standard on his face. His entire person looked quite ordinary.

However, his eyes were different from everyone else Chu Nan had seen.

It was not the shape, but the gaze.

In the past, Chu Nan had only seen such a saying in literature, ‘eyes like lightning, gaze like swords’. However, now that he had personally seen Marshal Chemekov, this was the first time he truly understood the meaning of this saying.

‘Looking straight into Marshal Chemekov’s eyes, one could see that there seemed to be lightning flickering in his eyes, but they were also as cold and oppressive as two swords, making it difficult to look at them.

Although Chu Nan had been forcing himself to look at Marshal Chemekov, in fact, in order to divert the pressure, his focus was not on his face.

Now that he was really looking at Marshal Chemekov, he deeply felt this huge mental pressure.

“There’s no need to thank me in a hurry.” Marshal Chemekov waved his hand, “I already understand the problem you encountered. I can help you, but I can only rely on my experience to give you some advice and reference. As for whether it’s actually helpful to you and whether you can break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the end, all of this will depend on you. I can’t help you.”

“I’m already extremely grateful that you specially gave me some precious suggestions, Marshal,” Chu Nan said respectfully.

“Alright, cut the crap. I don’t have much time for you.” Marshal Chemekov was clearly not the type to waste time and went straight to the point. “Tell me first, what do you think the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate is?”
