"Good boy, you're finally back!"
Uncle Pan slowly opened his palm and said with a smile. The dark red energy fell into Uncle Pan's hand after he opened his palm.
"It can't be?"
Seeing this, the black-robed old man opened his mouth wide in disbelief. It was not only him, even Elder Zhu and the three men reacted in the same way.
Uncle Pan acted as if he didn't see their gazes. He opened his mouth and swallowed the energy into his stomach under everyone's astonished gazes.
* Buzz *
After the energy entered Uncle Pan's stomach, everyone could still clearly see the dark red light flickering from the energy. However, the most unbelievable thing happened at that moment.
* Buzz *
The energy suddenly dispersed and turned into countless tiny streams of air. They began to rapidly shuttle through Uncle Pan's meridians. Uncle Pan even closed his eyes and enjoyed the huge change in his body.
"He's dead, he's dead!"
The black-robed elder laughed gloatingly as he looked at the rapidly moving light on Uncle Pan's body. Uncle Pan, an ordinary person, actually swallowed such a terrifying energy. It would be strange if he didn't die.
However, his face instantly froze in the next moment because Uncle Pan's strength began to rise at an extremely fast speed. In an instant, he broke through to the Martial Master level.
After that, Beginner Martial Master, Intermediate Martial Master, Advanced Martial Master, Beginner Wu Zun, Intermediate Wu Zun, and Advanced Wu Zun were all broken through by Uncle Pan. After reaching the Martial God level, his strength continued to rise.
* Bang *
At that moment, with Uncle Pan as the center, an extremely powerful dark red energy suddenly emitted. The energy was more than a hundred times more terrifying than Martial Qi. It caused the layer of ice under Uncle Pan's feet to instantly dissipate. At the same time, a large amount of fog spread out.
When the fog dissipated, everyone was even more shocked to find that Uncle Pan was actually floating above the lake. His old face had actually become much younger. Even his greyish-white hair had turned black.
Moreover, there was a pair of enormous dark red energy wings behind him. As the wings flapped, they gave rise to gusts of wind, creating circles of ripples on the surface of the lake.
"Battle … Battle … Battle King!"
"That's right, those dark red energy wings … he's a Battle King, a real Battle King!" The black-robed elder said with a trembling voice as he looked at Uncle Pan.
However, even after reaching the Combat King realm, Uncle Pan's strength continued to rise. A frightening pressure spread out, and even the black-robed old man, who was a high-level Martial God, was unable to move. However, in the end, Uncle Pan's aura still stopped rising after reaching the peak of the early-level Combat King realm.
At this moment, an arrogant smile could be seen on Uncle Pan's face. He was like a completely different person compared to before. He slightly shifted his gaze, and anyone who was caught by his gaze couldn't help but tremble. Battle Kings were the true experts of this continent. In front of a Battle King, they were like ants, unable to put up any resistance at all.
But at that moment, Uncle Pan's gaze suddenly stopped on Xing Jue. At that moment, Xing Jue was lying on the ground with a pale face. His aura was pitifully weak.
"Xing Jue, you've already repaid the debt your father owes me!" The corners of Uncle Pan's mouth curled up slightly. As he opened his mouth, a dark red energy entity slowly emerged and landed on Uncle Pan's palm. This energy entity was also extremely powerful, but compared to before, it was much calmer.
After summoning this energy entity, Uncle Pan flicked his finger at Xing Jue, and the energy entity immediately shot toward Xing Jue …
"No!"
Elder Zhu cried out in fear as he looked at the energy entity that contained a frightening amount of energy. But no matter how he shouted, he was unable to stop the Battle King's attack.
Puchi!
In the end, the energy entity shot into Xing Jue's body, causing Xing Jue to spurt out a mouthful of blood. Soon after, he completely lost his aura.
After seeing that Xing Jue had lost his aura, the black-robed elder smiled and said to Uncle Pan, "Eh? Senior, I am the Outer Sect's Grand Elder of the Shadow of Darkness. May I know your name?"
"Shadow of Darkness? Isn't it the Chilling Wind Cult? "Uncle Pan turned his head slightly after hearing the black-robed elder's words.
"That's right. Actually, the Chilling Wind Cult is just a dark …"
Puchi!
But before the black-robed elder could finish speaking, Uncle Pan waved his sleeve, and an incomparably powerful dark red gas burst out from his sleeve. Soon after, it forcefully shattered the black-robed elder into a fine powder that was blown away by the breeze above the Heavenly Lake.
At this moment, Uncle Pan was not in the mood to listen to his nonsense. Whether it was the Chilling Wind Cult or the Shadow of Darkness, none of them were important to him.
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned. At this moment, they felt that even their breathing had stopped. This method was simply too terrifying. A high-level Martial God actually disappeared just like that.
"Bang, bang, bang." After the old man, the three men from the Chilling Wind Cult also turned into dust, and then completely disappeared.
"You … Why did you kill Xing Jue?" At this moment, Elder Zhu suddenly shouted at Uncle Pan. Seeing that everyone was killed by Uncle Pan, he knew that he would not be able to escape death.
Although he did not know the relationship between Uncle Pan and Xing Jue, Elder Zhu had always thought that they were relatives after seeing how close the two were in the past. But he never expected that Uncle Pan would actually kill Xing Jue. Since he was destined to die, he might as well ask the questions in his heart.
"Hahahahaha …"
After hearing Elder Zhu's words, Uncle Pan suddenly laughed towards the sky. His laughter was as loud and clear as thunder, echoing in Elder Zhu's ears.
Seeing this, Elder Zhu was even more confused. He was at a complete loss as to what to do.
"You said that I killed Xing Jue? If that's the case, why is he still alive? "After laughing, Uncle Pan questioned Elder Zhu.
"What?" Elder Zhu was also stunned by Uncle Pan's words. He thought to himself, 'Xing Jue is clearly not breathing, how is it possible that he is still alive?'
"Cough cough cough" At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from Xing Jue's direction.
Looking over, Elder Zhu was even more shocked to see that Xing Jue was actually sitting there, coughing non-stop. After a while, he finally recovered and swept his gaze across the crowd.
"Uncle Pan, your strength has recovered?" When Xing Jue saw the black-haired man floating in the sky, his face was instantly filled with joy as he excitedly asked.
Although Uncle Pan had taken the appearance of a middle-aged man, Xing Jue was still able to recognize that it was Uncle Pan. Moreover, the pair of wings behind Uncle Pan, as well as that unparalleled aura, Xing Jue believed that only the legendary Battle King would possess such an aura.
"Hehe, I guess I've recovered a part of it."
"Xing Jue, how do you feel?" After seeing that Xing Jue had regained consciousness, Uncle Pan smiled and slowly asked.
"Eh, this is?" After hearing Uncle Pan's words, Xing Jue was shocked to find that his body had actually recovered to normal. The injuries from before had completely disappeared, and his strength was also extremely abundant.
What shocked Xing Jue the most was that there was an extremely tyrannical entity of energy within his body. Furthermore, that entity of energy actually did not cause any rejection or discomfort within his body.
"Did you feel it? This is my gift to you. With it, you will be able to break through to the Martial God realm very quickly. "Uncle Pan looked at the shocked Xing Jue and said with a faint smile.
In fact, Uncle Pan could have recovered his previous strength, which was above the Battle King realm. However, in order to increase Xing Jue's strength, he deliberately kept a portion of the entity of energy.
Furthermore, he compressed it to make the energy even more gentle. This way, Xing Jue could easily refine it and break through to the Martial God realm.
The reason why Xing Jue's aura had disappeared was because the entity of energy had been repairing Xing Jue's injuries. At the same time, it had completely isolated Xing Jue's aura.
"What a powerful energy. Thank you, Uncle Pan." Xing Jue smiled happily. He believed that as long as he could refine that energy, he would definitely be able to break through to the Martial God realm.
"Haha, but don't be impatient. If you want to refine this energy, it's best if you reach the High Rank Wu Zun's level first. That way, the effects will be even better. Perhaps you might even be able to touch the threshold of the Mid Rank Martial God realm." Uncle Pan reminded Xing Jue when he saw how excited he was.
"Mid Rank Martial God?" When he heard this term, Xing Jue became even more excited.
* Whoosh whoosh whoosh *
Right at this moment, the thick layer of ice on the Heavenly Lake began to melt. In fact, this place was originally a scorching hot place. Back then, it had become an island of ice because of the sealing formation. Now that the sealing formation had disappeared, this Heavenly Lake Island would return to normal.
Uncle Pan smiled when he saw this. Then, with a wave of his sleeve, everyone merged into the space and disappeared.
In the evening, in the village near the Heavenly Lake Island, it could be said to be extraordinarily lively. Every villager's face was brimming with happy smiles. For no other reason than that Xing Jue and the others had helped them eliminate that mysterious organization.
As for Xing Jue and the others, under the enthusiastic persuasion of the villagers, they decided to stay for one more night before departing …
"Elder Zhu, do you know about the Chilling Wind Cult?" Sitting on the seat of honor, Xing Jue asked Elder Zhu.
After hunting down those people, Xing Jue and the others also asked the remnants of the Chilling Wind Cult. However, they found out that they were only some scattered people from the outer island. They knew nothing about the Chilling Wind Cult. They were only following orders for benefits.
After all, the Jing Chamber of Commerce was a major force on the outer island. Perhaps they would know something about the Chilling Wind Cult.
"Chilling Wind Cult? This old man has never heard of it. However, this old man knows a little about the 'Shadow of Darkness'. I believe that the Chilling Wind Cult is only a cover. Their real identity should be the members of the Shadow of Darkness. "
"The Shadow of Darkness is a force that has only risen in the outer island in recent years. This force is extremely mysterious and often does some strange things. Their methods are indeed somewhat cruel. "After pondering for a moment, Elder Zhu slowly said.
"Oh? The Shadow of Darkness is so cruel. Is there no one on the outer island who does anything about it? "Xing Jue asked with extreme curiosity. He did not understand why such a force would exist on the outer island. In the three great empires, it was absolutely not allowed.
"This force is extremely mysterious. Moreover, they do things very cruelly. Back then, our Jing Chamber of Commerce also had a conflict with them because of some matters. However, in the end, we suffered a crushing defeat."
"However, the 'Shadow of Darkness' did not publicize this victory. Therefore, I feel that the 'Shadow of Darkness' is currently the strongest force on the outer island."
"Xing Jue, this place is not like your three great empires. This is only a gathering place for scattered people. Everyone pursues their own interests. Unless they have a deep relationship, otherwise, no one would care about the life and death of others. Therefore, I advise you not to provoke the Shadow of Darkness in order to avoid unnecessary trouble." Seemingly knowing what Xing Jue was thinking, Elder Zhu advised.
