"Come on in, old man!"
[The Devil-Conquering Palm Technique: First Stance; Destroying Devils]
Zheng-Fu did not think to sit still and let the old man kill either, so he released the first stance of the Devil-Conquering Palm Technique to resist.
Whoosh!!!
Bang!!! Bang!!! Boom!!!
The palm that had penetrated from the shadow collided with Zheng-Fu's palm countless times, causing a loud clashing sound throughout the hidden dimension space. And with the power of energy, the collision of the two stances was enormous. This hidden-dimension spell space was starting to become unbearable.
Whoosh!!!
Bang!!! Bang!!! Boom!!!
'This is bad! My hidden-dimension space spell can hardly bear this. Soon it'll be completely destroyed. By then, everyone in the sect and the people might die in large numbers. If I still let it be like this, it must reach that point. Guess I've got to use the ultimate stance of the Devil-Conquering Palm Technique.
But... Sigh…! Go ahead!'
Zheng-Fu was extremely hesitant and worried about the consequences of the clash of his skills with the old man because if his hidden-dimension space spell was destroyed, so many people would die and several structures within In-See City would collapse. Besides, the new spell pattern was not finished yet.
So, Zheng-Fu thought of using the last stance of the Devil-Conquering Palm Technique. However, Zheng-Fu had just recently invented this technique, and he had never tested it before. As such, Zheng-Fu was reluctant to use it because if something went wrong, it would not be only him who would die, but the people around him and anyone he knew would surely be killed.
But with no waiting time, Zheng-Fu decided to use that last stance.
"Since it's reached this stage, deal with it extremely!"
[The Devil-Conquering Palm Technique: Third Stance; Conquering Devils]
Whoosh!!!
Groan!!!
Both the land and the sky throughout the hidden-dimension space were instantly turbulent. It was about to disintegrate previously, but some parts had already been destroyed at this point. The open gap also made the world outside the dimension space aware of what was going on.
Groan!!!
"Wha… what… what happened?"
"Earthquake, earthquake!!?"
"What is this terrifying energy wave?"
Augh!!!
Many people and many areas were suddenly chaotic. When the energy waves emanated from Zheng-Fu's hidden-dimension space, both the land and the houses shook so violently that some small houses collapsed.
As for the cultivators, they could feel the terrifying and dangerous energy pressure waves. Some people with low energy levels even vomited blood because they could not stand the energy pressure. But this was only a fraction of the energy that emanated.
Back to Zheng-Fu and the old assassin…
After Zheng-Fu had used the last stance of the Devil-Conquering Palm Technique, the old man's face was visibly pale. Those formidable energy waves and the light energy wave, which was the adversary of his skill, made the old man begin to panic and fear this stance of Zheng-Fu.
[The Devil-Conquering Palm Technique: Third Stance; Conquering Devils]
Boom!!! Boom!!!
A large, golden palm appeared in front of Zheng-Fu. Then it charged quickly and fiercely towards the old man. It was ready to crush everything in its path into dust. The black smog that filled the sky at this moment was almost completely gone by the touch of this giant golden palm.
Even the old man's body was barely standing because he had spent quite a lot of energy using the Savage Shadow Orb and the first stance of the Black Shadow Palm skill several hundred times against Zheng-Fu earlier. When he had to face this huge golden palm, the old man felt the difficulty of defending it.
"I won't end up like this. If I were to die, I'd have you and all the people here die too. Ha ha ha!!!" The old man had not thought of giving up. He still had another trump card in his hand. However, this trump card would bring both good and bad effects to the person who used it.
"Huh! You're about to die now but still have a foul mouth... I won't allow you to do as you wish, oldy."
[The Soul-Confining Fetter Skill: Mind Intercept]
Whoosh!!!
Suddenly, many huge golden chains appeared from the ground, darting to catch and strap the old man without him realizing it.
Augh!!!
"Wha… what… what kind of skill is this!?" the old man shouted in disbelief at what he saw. He did not want to admit that he would not have a chance to use the last trump card he had after he was bound by many golden chains.
"Don't try to escape. These chains don't bind your body; they bind your soul and mind. This makes you unable to control your mind and common sense. So, you've got to accept death from my Devil-Conquering Palm Technique now!" Zheng-Fu explained to the old man the current situation so that the old man would have his doubts cleared before he died.
"Even if I die, the members of the Assassin Organization will never let you and those around you go. I've sent all the information about everything that happened here back to the organization. Whether it's a skill you use or your energy level, everyone in the organization will know it all."
"Go on... Do whatever you want, because I'm going to visit those guys anyway. Besides, I don't only have these Mystical Martial skills. I can use many more Mystical Martial skills and stances."
Zheng-Fu was not at all afraid or terrified by the threat of the old man. He was already the Divine Emperor stage martial master. As he fought with the old man, Zheng-Fu discovered that he could deal with the eighth level of the Divine Emperor martial master without any worry.
So why should he fear the old man's threat? And Zheng-Fu did not think of staying still any longer. After killing the old man, Zheng-Fu would search for their locations and go to slaughter them to his heart's content.
"Yo… you… you!!!"
Boom!!!
Augh!!! Auuuugh!!!
The huge golden palm smashed into the old man's body, causing a violent explosion. This caused both the old man's arms and legs to be torn from his body. But even so, the old man still did not die because Zheng-Fu had pulled back the energy before the old man died. Zheng-Fu still wanted some data from the old man.
Crack!!! Crack!!!
At that moment, the cracking sound of the dimension space rang out, along with many cracks that formed in the sky like a smashed glass wall. This hidden-dimension space would soon disappear, and both Zheng-Fu and the old man would appear before everyone's eyes.
But before that time, Zheng-Fu had to extract memories from the old man because he could not let anyone know this skill that was familiar to the devilish skill. If someone saw it, he would immediately be viewed with a negative view and questioned whether he was a demon or not.
[Soul Sealing Skill]
Whoosh!!!
The moment Zheng-Fu used the skill with a palm strapped to the old man's head, images of his memories flashed into Zheng-Fu's head all of a sudden. All the old man's memories from childhood to now were transferred to Zheng-Fu. But as Zheng-Fu could use this skill proficiently, he did not need to take all those unnecessary memories.
Whoosh!!!
"Huh huh huh! Now I know their hiding place. Well, it's time to get out of here."
Crack!!! Crack!!! Crack!!!
Before Zheng-Fu's words were finished, the surrounding scenery that was devastated by his previous clash with the old man returned to normal, but not the whole area. Because the emanating energy waves caused the ground to split slightly, some trees fell to the ground, and some buildings were damaged.
"It must be because of me," Zheng-Fu said with a dry smile as he saw his surroundings. But this incident did not make him so worried because it was just the damage of the stuff. None of the people were killed or seriously injured (or not), so Zheng-Fu was quite relieved.
As for the body of the old man, Zheng-Fu had already managed to get rid of it so that no one would know of the clash that took place within the hidden-dimension spell space. Therefore, only he appeared.
After everything had calmed down, people frantically talked about what had happened. They analyzed what the cause was and whose actions it was. But the most discussed topic was the rumor that the person who calmed the matter down was Zheng-Fu, the young master of the Tian-Tang Clan.
Everyone believed that it was Zheng-Fu. It definitely had to be him who protected In-See City and the people from the dangers that had happened previously.
"Do you believe me that…"
"No... I don't believe you."
"Hey! Let me finish first. Don't interrupt!"
"Do you believe me that the whole thing that happened was calmed down because Young Master Zheng-Fu dealt with it?"
"Of course, everyone believes that. With Young Master Zheng-Fu's reputation combined with his lofty identity as the Divine Emperor master of our kingdom, who wouldn't believe it?"
"That's true... Think about it, In-See City has grown and developed to this extent because Young Master Zheng-Fu is behind it. Even the City Governor has to respect him."
"You don't know anything. When In-See City was on the verge of collapse, Zheng-Fu sponsored all of the city's major clans."
"You're right. Even the sect master of the Beyond Earth Sect is his man. And who else is greater than him?"
All the people and merchants chatted merrily. They felt much admiration and respect for Zheng-Fu. Nowadays, their lives were noticeably better, completely different from the past. Due to the larger city size and more people, the economy and trade also improved accordingly.
Especially with the presence of the Beyond Earth Sect, the city looked even more lively because the sect's disciples regularly came out to shop outside. In addition, a large number of people had come here to apply for the Beyond Earth Sect as well.
Back to the Beyond Earth Sect, at the large court where Zheng-Fu appeared...
"Just now, I saw Young Master Zheng-Fu standing there?"
"How is that possible? Your eyes must have dazzled for sure. Young Master Zheng-Fu left here a long time ago. How could he just stand there?"
"But I really saw him!"
"Sigh... I guess you slept too little, so you see an illusion. Or you may think too much about this, causing hallucinations to appear on your own."
"Yeah, maybe I slept too little... It's morning now and I haven't slept at all."
