"Brother Tong-Kuang! Get everyone out of here!" Zheng-Fu said while enhancing his golden energy to circulate the big statue again…

"What about you, young master!?" Tong-Kuang asked out of worry…

"Don't worry about me! I'm alright! Please take everyone out! Now!"

Yah!

"Yes, young master!"

When Tong-Kuang heard Zheng-Fu's determined order, he had to follow it, but without consent. This event happened exactly like last time. It was before Zheng-Fu lost consciousness for a year…

Tong-Kuang felt extremely worried that it would happen again. However, he could not go against Zheng-Fu's order. Tong-Kuang was painful to leave him…

Roar!

All of a sudden, the monster roared out of nowhere. It wanted to tell Tong-Kuang to not worry about Zheng-Fu because Zheng-Fu still had the monster behind him…

"Monster!"

The alchemists and the women were afraid of the monster when they heard the roar…

"Don't be afraid! The monster won't hurt you. Let's go, guys!" Dan-Chun-Gu told the kidnapped people not to be fearful of the monster. Everyone felt better hearing that, but just a little…

All kidnapped alchemists jumped into the well. Dan-Chun-Gu and the group led the way…

Clomp!

"I'll wait to see you outside!" One of the nine middle-aged men mumbled before jumping into the well…

The kidnapped women also jumped after the group of middle-aged men. Tong-Kuang was the last to jump in…

Now everyone left the underwater cave, leaving behind Zheng-Fu. He continued to project the golden aura at the big statue to cover the black aura around it with all of his energy…

The black aura also tried to move around to get free from the golden aura, but it could not. Right now, Zheng-Fu's forehead was full of cold sweat. He did not know how long he could continue with the process…

Not only projected the golden aura at the big statue, but he also tried to absorb the dark aura from the statue as well. A tremendous amount of the dark aura flew into his energy range every time he tried to absorb it…

Zheng-Fu needed to be careful with the absorption otherwise he would break his energy range…

As Zheng-Fu absorbed the black aura, he felt that not a lot of the aura went into his energy range even though he had been absorbing a tremendous amount of it…

"How big is my energy range!?" Zheng-Fu said while looking at his stomach…

"I guess I can't be thinking too much now. If I don't do something, the statue will break anytime soon!" Zheng-Fu crinkled his eyebrows and started to absorb the black aura again…

Boom!

A huge amount of dark energy flew into Zheng-Fu's energy range violently, as well as the black aura. They clashed with the golden energy within Zheng-Fu instantly…

Boom!

Argh!

Gulp!

Zheng-Fu choked out a big gulp of blood. His face showed that he was in pain the minute those opposite energies clashed with one another…

"Darn it!"

Zheng-Fu rushed to wipe out the blood on his face. Then he started to balance those energies immediately…

Whoosh!

The dark and golden energies started to cool down. Then they began to unify with one another slowly. Zheng-Fu started to look better now…

Whoosh!

"This is very dangerous. Even though I can take in a big amount of energy at a time, the impact of a big absorption is not positive at all!"

When Zheng-Fu finished balancing the energies, he started to do another round of absorption…

Boom!

Boom!

Zheng-Fu continued the process many times so much that he was now at the highest level of the third level of the Golden Core stage. Only a step away, then he would break through to the next level…

The tremendous amount of the black aura around the statue started to subside. The energy that Zheng-Fu had absorbed was a lot enough for regular martial artists to break through by two steps. But for Zheng-Fu, it was only enough for one…

Bang!

Finally, an explosion occurred within Zheng-Fu's energy range. It indicated that he had now moved up to the next level…

Whoosh!

"So, I finally penetrated to the next level. I have the black aura to thank for!"

Zheng-Fu smiled bitterly. It was because he expected to break through to more than just one level. It made him a little sad…

When the black aura around the statue receded, Zheng-Fu started to reduce the projection of the golden energy…

Bang!

All of a sudden, the statue got shattered and a fierce-looking monster emerged from the statue. However, this monster came with a light amount of energy…

Roar!

The fierce monster roared violently, but Zheng-Fu was not afraid of it at all. He took out his puppet of the soul and tossed it on the ground in front of him…

Whoosh!

The tiny puppet started to grow bigger and bigger into the huge size of a puppet of the soul. It looked at the fierce monster and then turned to look at Zheng-Fu…

"Take care of it!" Zheng-Fu said while pointing at the fierce monster…

Roar!

Zheng-Fu's puppet of the soul threw a punch at the fierce monster causing a strong shake in the cave. The puppet of the soul had the energy that could destroy the whole cave at any time…

Boom!

Only a single punch from the puppet of the soul could shatter the fierce monster into pieces…

Roar!

Zheng-Fu was stunned to see the impact of the punch. He did not expect that a punch from the puppet of the soul could be that powerful. He even had to step back from the impact…

"Such a powerful energy!" Zheng-Fu said while feeling pleased. Then he reached out his hand to call back the puppet of the soul…

Whoosh!

The big puppet of the soul started to shrink and floated back to Zheng-Fu's hand instantly. He then put the puppet back into his spatial ring…

"I guess it's over!" Zheng-Fu said while looking around the cave…

Zheng-Fu looked at a lot of corpses under that cave, both were from the men from the cult and the troops. All of a sudden, he remembered something. It was the unfinished business…

"It's not over yet! There's one more thing I need to do!" Zheng-Fu sored away as soon as he finished the sentence…

Whoosh!

Outside of the cave…

Everyone who was still alive had already come out of the cave. Each one received great help and care from one another. The heavily injured ones got treated right away. Mo-Zi and the generals had a group of people send those kidnapped women homes…

"What about Zheng-Fu? How come he's still in there?" Kong-Shi turned to ask Tong-Kuang...

"Young master needed to finish something, so he could not come out, sir!"

Tong-Kuang had to lie to Kong-Shi saying that Zheng-Fu needed to do something in the cave. Tong-Kuang knew that it was not true…

"What about sister Tang-Ling?" Hai-Gu asked out of curiosity because he did not see her…

"I don't know, sir! Young master told us to come out first!" Tong-Kuang said while trying to remain calm…

Kong-Shi was stunned by the fact that Zheng-Fu had not come out of the cave. Everyone was already out, but his wife and son. So, he started to suspect...

"I'll get in to see them!" Kong-Shi said while preparing to walk into the cave, but then…

Clomp!

"It's the order by young master that no one should go in there. I'm sorry, sir, but I can't let you in." Tong-Kuang stopped Kong-Shi from going into the cave. He even let out his energy to push Kong-Shi back…

Kong-Shi could not fight with Tong-Kuang because Tong-Kuang was stronger than him. He just did not think that Tong-Kuang would do this to him. Not only that, Dan-Chun-Gu and the rest also stepped in to block the entrance to the cave…

"Please wait outside, sir! I believe that young master will come out with madam Tang-Ling eventually!" Tong-Kuang said while cupping his fists and bowing to pay utmost respect to Kong-Shi…

"Fine! But if it's too long, I'll have to get in!" Kong-Shi replied with cold eyes…

"Of course, sir. I'll get in there too, sir!" Tong-Kuang also had the same thought. Right now, everyone had to wait…

Clomp! Clomp! Clomp!

All of a sudden, a young warrior ran to Kong-Shi with surprise on his face. He said…

"Respecting Elder Kong-Shi! We've found your wife, sir!"

"You've found my dear wife!?"

"Madam has been found!?"

"Yes, sir. We've found madam Tang-Ling. She's been at Elder Lao-Chu's house. We searched Elder Lao-Chu's house and found that everyone in the house was trying to leave the clan. They also tried to bring madam Tang-Ling with them, so we stopped them…"

The young warrior reported the news with a serious face. His forehead was full of sweat because he rushed to the cave from the clan as quickly as he could…

Lao-Chu who was sitting being tied there started to falter. He tried to get free from the rope and said, "What did you do to them!?" Then he gave a piercing look to that young warrior…

The young warrior was feared by that look. He was shaking and then said…

"They got away, sir!"

Lao-Chu started to let out a smile the minute he heard that. He thought if everyone in his family got caught, it would be a forever doom to his family. When his family could get away, there was still hope that they could come to take revenge for him…

Mo-Zi and the rest crinkled their eyebrows instantly. They did not expect that Lao-Chu would prepare for everything. They also did not know that they would keep Tang-Ling at the clan…

"Lang-Guang-Kuang! Go back to the clan instantly!" Dan-Chun-Gu turned to Lang-Guang-Kuang before telling him to go back to the clan to take care of Tang-Ling…

"Yes, sir!"

Whoosh!

"So, Tang-Ling is not in the cave. Does Zheng-Fu know about that?" Kong-Shi said while starting to worry for Zheng-Fu…

Tong-Kuang had to shake his head and say…

"Sir, please go back to see madam. We'll take care of the things here. Young master will be alright!" Tong-Kuang said while patting his chest with an utmost confident gesture…

Kong-Shi looked at Tong-Kuang for a while and then said, "Then I'll have to leave him with you!" Kong-Shi said and patted Tong-Kuang's shoulder with hope…

"Yes, sir!"

As soon as Kong-Shi finished his sentence, he turned to Mo-Zi and the rest and said, "Respecting the leader of the clan! Let's go back to our clan. We can leave everything here with Tong-Kuang and the group!"

"Alright!"

"I think it's a good idea. There is no one in the clan. It would be bad if something serious came up there!"

When Mo-Zi finished his sentence, he ordered the troops to go back to the clan immediately. Lao-Chu was taken back with them too…

Clomp! Clomp! Clomp!

"Generals! You should take your men back too. They are all injured horribly. Now that the Cult of Savage Evil in the Monsters' Route got wiped out. I have to thank you guys for young master too." Tong-Kuang said while cupping his fists to pay respect to the generals and the troops of the owner of In-See City…

"No! Master Tong-Kuang! Please don't do that. We know that we have to come here to fight by your side. We have to be the ones who thank you for helping us all along. Without you and your people, we wouldn't be able to get rid of the cult." The general that went into the cave said.

He admired Tong-Kuang very much…

They all had witnessed the strength that Tong-Kuang and the team had. However, they admired Zheng-Fu the most because he was so young and capable. It seemed like there was no one as capable as Zheng-Fu at the moment…

Not only possessing a very high energy level, but Zheng-Fu could also make Tong-Kuang and the team respect him without any doubt. The general thought that if he did not see the whole thing, he would not believe in Zheng-Fu, the kid…
