“Captain’s strength… is so strong…”
Feeling the increasingly terrifying battle ahead, Jiang Wen had no choice but to continue retreating. At this moment, looking at the battle in front of her, she couldn’t help but feel a little lost. “But why hasn’t he stopped…
“Shouldn’t it be enough to display his strength…”
She was a little confused, not understanding what Chen Heng was trying to do. From the perspective of maximizing benefits, it should be sufficient as long as he displayed enough strength and showcased his prowess.
After that, they would look for the two people from before. Naturally, they would have a share of the credit. It should be enough to achieve this step. At this point, regardless of whether it was the credit or other rewards, there would be no less. There would be a huge reward for them.
However, looking at the current situation, it didn’t seem like he would stop. To Jiang Wen, it looked more like a fight to the death. More importantly…
Bang!
A terrifying pressure bloomed as a figure flew out and crashed into a tall building before hitting heavily onto the ground. They fell heavily onto the ground. His face was ashen as he coughed out large mouthfuls of blood.
From the looks of it, he had suffered quite a lot in the battle between the two parties. At this moment, his entire body was covered in wounds. But even so, he still struggled, wanting to get up immediately. An unknown aura locked onto him at this moment.
In front of him, a figure slowly appeared, walking out from the smoke and dust. This was the appearance of a young, handsome man. Although he looked like he was only sixteen or seventeen years old, his body was already emitting a terrifying aura that seemed to be supreme and unrivaled.
His body was covered with a layer of golden armor. It seemed to be formed from some kind of unique power. It seemed somewhat illusory, but it blocked all the evil foreign energy outside, making it impossible to erode.
Just like that, he walked over from afar. With each step he took, he arrived in front of the Shadow Old Man. Looking at Chen Heng, who had a calm expression and was not injured at all, the Shadow Old Man could not help but show fear on his face. “How… how is it possible…
“Your strength!”
An arm suddenly stretched out before he could finish his words, and a hand grabbed the Shadow Old Man’s neck.
Then, a terrifying power erupted. Chen Heng exerted force with his hand and lifted the Shadow Old Man, hanging him in the air, and then pushed him heavily.
Bang!
A huge hole was created on a wall, and a human-shaped depression appeared, revealing the Shadow Old Man’s appearance. He was coughing up blood, and his body was covered in wounds. His aura was extremely weak.
From the looks of it, he did not look like a fourth rank powerhouse, but more just an ordinary old man. Of course, this old man was not ordinary at all. In Chen Heng’s sight, the Shadow Old Man was filled with a terrifying aura of resentment, and his spiritual energy was also filled with impurities. He could not help but frown.
The Shadow Old Man was not a good person. One could even say that he was a person of absolute evil. Even though he was in such an impaired state, no one would feel a sense of pity towards him.
But even so, he was still a fourth rank. Moreover, he was at the peak of the fourth rank. He should be amongst the best among the fourth rank. Now that he had been beaten up like this, he was as helpless as an ordinary person.
Jiang Wen stared blankly at the scene in front of her. At this moment, her face was a little pale.
“Captain, you…”
She looked at Chen Heng, who was standing in front of her and lifting the Shadow Old Man with one hand. She wanted to say something but hesitated. She was not a fool. At this moment, she could already sense the inexplicable atmosphere.
The appearance in front of Chen Heng did not seem like he was just fighting for the right to speak and wanted to get more credit. From the looks of it, he was trying to kill the Shadow Old Man.
He had done it. The Shadow Old Man that was supposed to be overly powerful among the fourth ranks was held in Chen Heng’s hand like a dead dog. This scene could not help but shock Jiang Wen. For a moment, she was in a daze, not knowing what to say.
At this moment, she only felt that her body and mind were tense. She wanted to do something, but she could not do anything. In the next moment, an unknown aura pa.s.sed by in the distance. It was as if a natural enemy had descended, carrying an unrivaled aura.
That aura was exceptionally terrifying. It was as if a star had fallen on the Earth, wanting to destroy everyone.
“This is…”
Sensing this aura, Jiang Wen’s expression changed drastically. She seemed to have thought of something. She subconsciously raised her head and coincidentally saw a figure flying through the air in the distance, descending.
It was a burly man. He wore a black robe, and his expression was calm and composed. He was like a high and mighty king that had descended into this world. The man’s appearance caused Jiang Wen to tremble subconsciously.
“Olly…The Ghost Hand…”
Her body trembled slightly, and she subconsciously called out the man’s name. The middle-aged man in the distance was none other than the group of people that had descended to the Qika Planet.
There were no weaklings among the group of people that had descended to this planet. Even the Shadow Old Man before her was nothing in that group of people but an ordinary person.
However, Olly, the Ghost Hand was different. He was one of the leaders of the group and one of the two fifth rank powerhouses.
A fifth rank.
A powerhouse of this rank, no matter where he was, was truly a peak existence. Even in the vast starry skies, a fifth rank powerhouse was a terrifying existence, one able to destroy some weak planets alone easily. A fifth rank’s strength was unimaginable.
And now, such an expert had descended. Furthermore, it was under such circ.u.mstances. Jiang Wen’s face could not help but turn pale as a bad premonition arose, enveloping her entire body, causing her to tremble.
The Shadow Old Man was the other party’s subordinate. Now that Chen Heng had beaten him up, what would Olly think when he saw it? And if something happened to Chen Heng, what was a mere follower like her worth?
Thinking of this, her heart became more and more fearful.
“It turned out like this.”
Olly arrived here and looked at the scene in front of him with a calm expression. He had caught the aura of the Golden King’s Mark before and thus had chased all the way here.
He had not expected to encounter this scene just as he arrived here. The power of a fifth rank powerhouse’s true spirit was far stronger than that of a fourth rank general. With a casual sweep of his hand, the power of his true spirit rippled in all directions, capturing the information left behind and replaying the scene from before.
“I see…”
Replaying the scene from before, he stood where he was and raised his head once again, looking at Chen Heng with an ice-cold gaze. “How dare you.”
His gaze was ice-cold, and it seemed to contain a genuine power. Just his gaze alone was enough to freeze a person’s soul and freeze everything. As his words fell, an invisible aura appeared, along with a powerful and terrifying mental will, enveloping this place.
A faint power of true spirit rippled in all directions, sweeping out and slamming directly onto Chen Heng’s body.
However, this power of true spirit, which would easily defeat any other fourth rank, landed on Chen Heng’s body like a cool breeze blowing on his face, not causing the slightest bit of movement. It was as if this power was just a light breeze.
“What?”
Olly frowned, looking at Chen Heng in front of him. He seemed to be somewhat puzzled, but he did not care. He had only withstood a portion of his power, and that was nothing. Chen Heng’s aura was still at the fourth rank.
A fourth rank powerhouse was indeed a terrifying existence in the outside world. However, it was nothing compared to a fifth rank powerhouse. It didn’t matter even if he could withstand a little of his aura.
However, Chen Heng’s performance had piqued his interest, and he had some thoughts.
“Let him go and kneel before me. Then, I’ll repent and even spare your life.”
He stood on the spot with a cold expression. He spoke indifferently with a majestic voice, as though he was a deity who had spoken. This was the chance he had given the other party. Seeing that the other party’s strength was not bad and that he was so young, he suppressed his thoughts.
However, his words didn’t receive the reaction he deserved. In front of him, the young man’s figure slowly turned around. His eyes calmly gazed back at Olly. In his hand, a surge of energy slowly surged and gathered.
“No!”
In the young man’s hand, the Shadow Old Man, whose neck was being strangled, felt the pressure and began to struggle desperately. “Lord Olly, save…”
Bang!
A crisp sound erupted. In the next moment, under everyone’s disbelieving gazes, the Shadow Old Man’s movements stopped. His neck was broken, and his body stopped moving. The last bit of his life force disappeared completely.
Blood splattered all over the sky and fell on the ground like a rain of blood.
The faint power of true spirit dissipated and spread in all directions. It was suppressed by an even stronger aura and was directly destroyed.
His soul was shattered!
Looking at the Shadow Old Man who had directly fallen, Olly’s expression instantly froze. Following that, intense anger appeared in his heart. It almost burned his body to ashes and burned the person in front of him to death.
“Very well! Very well!”
He was so angry that he laughed instead. A cold smile appeared on his face, and there was an unconcealable fury in his eyes. “You! Seek! Death!”
In an instant, an enormous power pressed down on this place, bringing with it the power of a true spirit. With a rumble, this place was enveloped by a violent power, covering the entire plaza, and even the entire city. And in the center was none other than Chen Heng.
A fifth rank was indeed worthy of being a fifth rank. Even if it was just a casual attack, the power that erupted from it was enough to surpa.s.s all the fourth rank powerhouses in the world.
Just this single attack, even if it was just a small shockwave, was enough to kill the Shadow Old Man more than a dozen times. And in the midst of this, not to mention Chen Heng, even the surrounding plaza and others around would find it hard to escape. They would all die.
“It’s over!”
Standing behind her, Jiang Wen looked at the scene in front of her and felt the power within it begin to roar. She fell to the ground, her face filled with despair. At this moment, she no longer had any hope for her future. She knew clearly that under this power, no one would be able to survive. No matter what kind of ideology Chen Heng had, it was probably useless.
“I haven’t had a boyfriend yet!”
She felt despair in her heart as this thought flashed through her mind.
In the distance, Lu Yao and Ye Zi, who were running, stopped in their tracks. Just now, the two of them had felt an abnormality in their bodies. The curse mark that had been lingering around them and could not be suppressed no matter how hard they tried had disappeared.
Under the circ.u.mstance that they had not done anything, there was only one possibility for the curse mark to disappear.
“That person is dead?”
Lu Yao and Ye Zi looked at each other and saw the shock in each other’s eyes. They had fought with the Shadow Old Man before, so they knew how difficult it was to deal with him.
To put it bluntly, even among the General Level, the Shadow Old Man was the most difficult to deal with. And such a powerful and terrifying enemy had fallen so quickly.
“Just how powerful is brother’s strength…”
However, before they could react, and even more terrifying explosion occurred.
In the surroundings, a terrifying aura was spreading. A violent Gen Qi carrying the power of the true spirit formed a bear storm that almost drowned the area. It was just a casual attack, but it gave people an inexplicable feeling of a natural disaster.
It was so terrifying. Even if they did not face this power directly, just feeling the existence and rise of this power could make people feel a sense of despair.
“This is the fifth rank!”
In an instant, Ye Zi felt the essence of this power, and her face turned extremely pale. Then, they felt it. The target of the powerful attack was none other than Chen Heng.
“No!”
Lu Yao’s eyes widened, and they were bloodshot.. She did not dare to imagine what would happen next.
