The diplomats and generals fell into a deathly silence. Their faces, once rigid with arrogance, turned pale to the tips of their ears.Alex’s threat was no mere bluff; they had just witnessed satellite footage of the Chua Nation—one of the world's greatest military powers—leveled to the ground in a matter of hours."The meeting is over," Alex said, waving his hand in a dismissive, deeply demeaning gesture. "Get out of my palace before I change my mind and turn you all into fertilizer for my wife’s pavilion garden."With hurried steps and ragged breaths, the envoys turned back. The sound of military boots and expensive loafers clattered frantically against the marble floor.However, once they reached the outer courtyard and entered their protected diplomatic vehicles, their expressions of fear slowly twisted into deep resentment.Inside the armored limousine of the superpower delegation, the senior diplomat loosened his tie violently."Arrogant bastard! Does he really think he’s God j

Thick black smoke billowed into the sky, obscuring the sensory view around the coordinates of the explosion.---Below, amidst the shaking buildings, a helicopter with a large logo reading "ASTRAL NEWS 24" maneuvered frantically through the heat clouds."OKAY, WE ARE LIVE! JOHNNY, MAKE SURE THE CAMERA FOCUSES ON THAT FIREBALL!" shouted Bob, a reporter whose slicked-back hair was now a mess from the helicopter's turbulence."Damn it, Bob! This is suicide! We're too close to the Seraphim Division!" the cameraman shot back, struggling to balance his massive lens."SHUT UP AND RECORD! THIS IS THE HIGHEST RATING IN THE HISTORY OF JOURNALISM!" Bob straightened his crooked tie and faced the camera with a forced, dramatic expression."Citizens of the Astral Federation! I am Bob Maverick, reporting live from the apocalypse zone above the Capital! Before your very eyes, our pride and hero, Plastic Man, has just unleashed a mountain-leveling blast at... at... uh, a mysterious man in a black cloa

"JOHNNY, IS THE CAMERA STILL ON?! DON'T YOU DARE LET IT DIE NOW!" Bob screamed hoarsely, his voice nearly swallowed by the roaring air.Alex released his grip on Super Fist's hands, but before the hero could distance himself, Alex flicked his middle finger toward the hero's metallic silver chest.BOOM!It was merely a flick, yet Super Fist shot backward like a bullet, hitting the air with a deafening sonic boom. Before he could even come to a halt, Alex appeared behind him, standing with his hands tucked back into his cloak pockets."W-what?! He moved that fast?!" Bob muttered, his mouth agape."This isn't a massage," Alex whispered directly into Super Fist's ear.THUD!Alex delivered a casual knee strike to Super Fist's back. The hero soared upward, coughing up blue biogenetic fluid. Alex lunged again, appearing above Super Fist, and with a motion like swatting a fly, he struck the hero's back with the back of his hand.CRASH!Super Fist slammed into a building's roof, piercing throu

Alex immediately left the land of Heliox after giving his final instructions to Candra. For an ordinary human, the journey to the remote Kunlun Mountains could take weeks of complex logistics, but for a Martial Emperor, distance was a meaningless number.During his seven-day journey, Alex chose to move manually, crossing oceans and deserts while absorbing the remnants of natural energy to stabilize his cultivation foundation. On the seventh day, just as dawn was breaking, he arrived at the foot of the mountain range known as the "Ancestor of Ten Thousand Mountains."In the eyes of advanced nations' satellites or amateur climbers, the place before Alex was merely an expanse of eternal snow and frozen granite. However, to Alex, who possessed the God’s Eyes, the view was vastly different."Cunning," Alex muttered with a smirk.He saw a giant, pale blue web enveloping the entire mountain peak. It wasn't just electromagnetic distortion as Candra had reported, but the Hidden Nine Heavens Il

The clash between Alex’s golden fist and the Divine Moon Destruction Beam triggered a massive explosion of light that split the valley’s sky. The resulting shockwave was so violent that dozens of spiritual trees were uprooted, and the gravity-defying waterfall behind them ceased its flow for several agonizing seconds.BZZZZZT! BOOOOM!As the dust and energy particles slowly thinned, Alex was revealed, still standing firm in his original position. His black robes fluttered in the gale, yet not a single scratch marred his body. A thin veil of golden Qi on the surface of his skin had neutralized all the destructive energy of the Wolf King."Is this all?" Alex asked, his voice dripping with disdain.The Heavenly Moon Wolf King stood frozen. Its golden horn still vibrated from the resonance of the blast. "Impossible! You withstood that with nothing but pure physical strength?!"Sensing their leader was in peril, dozens of high-level Silver Claw Wolves could no longer restrain themselves. W
