As the four guests took their places, the hall fell into a hushed silence. The moment was ripe for formalities and introductions, but the undercurrent of tension and anticipation was palpable. The guests from the Leng Clan had come with a purpose, and their visit was likely to have far-reaching implications for the Shu Clan and its dealings in the Sacred Immortal Realm.In this charged environment, every gesture, every word exchanged, would carry weight. The presence of such formidable individuals from the Leng Clan signaled that something significant was on the horizon, and the Shu Clan was poised on the brink of a potentially transformative engagement.Among the visitors from the Leng Clan, there was a notable disparity in their cultivation levels, which immediately became apparent. One of them was at the peak stage of Immortal, and the other three were at the middle stage. The peak stage Immortal, who took the lead in this delegation, was particularly striking. He wore resplendent
Boom!In that split second, the very fabric of space trembled violently, sending shockwaves through the surroundings as if reality itself was being disrupted. A brilliant, blinding screen of light suddenly materialized in the air, its intensity so overwhelming that it bathed the entire area in an eerie, otherworldly glow. This was no mere light; it was infused with a divine energy so potent that it instantly sealed off the entire space, creating an impenetrable barrier. From within this radiant enclosure, a devastating beam of light burst forth with unparalleled speed and ferocity, aimed directly at the heart of the Shu Clan residence.As this catastrophic event unfolded, several figures swiftly rose into the air, reacting with incredible speed and coordination. These figures were the devoted subordinates of Adam, each one exuding a powerful aura of immortal light. Their presence was marked by an ethereal, shimmering glow that surrounded them, signifying their immense strength and un
The Renhuang Lamp users found themselves utterly perplexed by the unfolding events. According to their meticulously gathered intelligence, they had a comprehensive understanding of the laws Adam had mastered. Among these were several formidable abilities, but spatial laws were conspicuously absent from his repertoire. Adam was undeniably powerful, his mastery over certain elements a testament to his prowess. However, the creation of a spatial gate and the ability to traverse the void were feats that unequivocally required a profound understanding and mastery of spatial laws—something they were certain Adam lacked.As they stood there, facing Adam who had just appeared before them seemingly out of nowhere, their confusion grew deeper. The ability to create a spatial gate was not a trivial skill; it was an advanced technique reserved for those who had devoted significant time and effort to mastering the intricate laws of space. Traversing the void, an even more complex feat, required a
Adam jolted awake, his heart pounding in his chest. He glanced at the clock and cursed under his breath.'Fuck!'It was already 8 pm. He had overslept again.The 22-year-old man quickly headed to the bathroom, but he heard a faint sound of sobbing from his sister’s room. He stopped and moved closer, peeking through the slightly open door. There, he saw his mother, Sarah, sitting on the edge of the bed hugging Rachel, his sister.Sarah stroked Rachel’s hair, trying to comfort her. "I’m sorry, sweetie. I promise I’ll pay your tuition next week. Don’t listen to those mean kids. I may always be late, but I always manage to pay it, right?"Adam felt a pang of sadness. He knew how much Rachel loved school, and how much she suffered from being bullied by her friends for being poor. As for his mother, she worked as a tailor, whose income had declined due to her health condition. Adam wished he could do something to help them, but he felt powerless and useless.When Adam was about to walk away
Adam tried to avoid looking at Lily, but he couldn’t resist. She looked joyful and at ease, unlike when she was with him.Lily looked up and saw Adam, then smiled. "Hi, Adam."The man next to her frowned and looked at Adam with a hostile glare. He wrapped his arm around Lily’s waist and drew her closer to him. "Who’s this, babe?"Lily leaned into the man hugging her. "This is Adam, my boyfriend, the one I told you about earlier."The man laughed mockingly and looked at Adam from head to toe. "So you're the pathetic waiter who's been dating my girl, huh? You're nothing but a loser who can't even give Lily anything. How did you manage to fool her for so long? Did you use some cheap tricks or drugs? You should be ashamed of yourself, you worthless piece of trash."The man then turned to Lily, caressed her cheek and continued, "You deserve better, babe. You deserve someone like me. Someone who can give you everything you want and more."Lily smiled sweetly at the man before turned to Adam
Mark's face contorted in anger, and he seemed ready to explode. However, before he could spew more venom, Mr. Lee intervened."Adam, come with me to my office. Now!"With one last smirk at Mark and Lily, Adam followed Mr. Lee, limping slightly. Though his body ached and his heart hurt, he felt strangely liberated.Lily pursed her lips and snarled at Adam's retreating back. She refused to accept the sight of Adam smirking at her. "I can't believe it, Mark. You're not going to do anything about this?"As much as Mark wanted to punish Adam, he couldn't shake the feeling of being watched and potentially recorded. He smiled, but his anger palpable. "Don't worry, babe, he'll learn his place. And when he does, I'll make damn sure he never forgets it."Mark glanced toward his bodyguards and gave them a subtle nod. The two burly men exchanged knowing looks before quietly slipping away from the scene.Meanwhile, in Mr. Lee's office, the atmosphere was tense. Mr. Lee slammed his fist on the desk
Knowledge of countless martial arts techniques and medical practices began to flood Adam's mind like a raging flood in a once dry riverbed. It was as if every scrap of knowledge that no human should have was suddenly embedded in his brain.Adam jolted awake, his body aching from the brutal beating he had received. He struggled to recall what had happened, and suddenly, he remembered the voice in his mind.He shut his eyes and scanned his mind. He found a wealth of knowledge such as Nine Skies Acupuncture Method, Mystic Martial Arts Techniques, and other abilities like Celestial Restoration and Visceral Vision in his memory.Adam couldn't contain the feeling of happiness in his heart, but he was too confused, so he decided to try using a skill called Celestial Restoration. Soon, a warm stream circulated to his extremities and bones via his veins. His wounds vanished miraculously as the stream passed through them. Moreover, his fractured bones were mystically mended. All the injuries h
Adam couldn't believe what he was hearing. Supreme Being? 100 Supreme Points? Losing 2 inches in height?'What the fuck is going on?' he muttered to himself, while trying to get rid of the fear that was creeping in.The son looked at Adam in confusion. "Are you alright? You seem a bit shaken.""I'm fine," Adam forced a smile before turning to the old man. "By the way, has the pain in your leg decreased recently?"Upon hearing this, the old man's eyes widened in shock, and he stuttered, "H-how did you know about that?"Previously, Adam had examined the old man's condition using Visceral Vision, so he could give a clear explanation. "The ginseng pills are indeed good for your health, but the poison has stayed there for too long and it has merged with your bones. In short, the ginseng pills can only pull out the poison from the bones but not get rid of it, causing it to spread throughout your body. This poison will kill you sooner than your heart problems."The old man was terrified by t
