"It seems this game will be over soon," Alex hissed.BZZZZZZZZT!!!The silver-blue static sparks that had previously dimmed now erupted once more with ten times greater intensity."It is time to use the Thousand Thunder Steps technique to its absolute limit..."Instantly, the air above the Fire Dragon’s nape distorted violently as Alex moved in a zig-zag pattern.Syuuuut! Syuuuut! Syuuuut!Alex’s body flashed, vanishing from his original position and leaving behind a perfect network of lightning afterimages in a zig-zag pattern across the air. His speed had surpassed the limits of the naked eye; even the colossal dragon could only roar in a daze upon realizing that the target on its nape had suddenly disappeared.Utilizing the flexibility of the Thousand Thunder Steps, Alex moved like a bolt of lightning bouncing through tight spaces. His target was no longer merely to strike the outer surface physically, but to aim for the microscopic gaps within the energy nodes connecting the doubl

"Your steps are far too noisy for a mouse from the Heavenly Hall," a cold, sharp voice cut through the howling hot wind, echoing across the ceiling of the burning stone cave. Syuuuut! Before the elder, clad in the signature white-and-gold robe of the Heavenly Hall, could firmly plant his feet back down, a dark shadow flashed like lightning. The pair of dual swords that had been spinning in the air just moments ago were now back in the grasp of a young man who stood tall, blocking the path to the magma world. Juanyi appeared out of nowhere, hovering in mid-air with his robe fluttering in the searing heat. The gaze in his eyes was as cold as the northern ice, contrasting sharply with the sea of lava beneath them. The Heavenly Hall elder, whose name was Elder Feng, widened his eyes. His heart gave a sharp throb; he was an early-stage Earth Deity realm cultivator, yet the girl in front of him had managed to approach without being detected by his spiritual sense until the dual swords

Whoosh! Alex casually flicked his left hand. Dozens of spatial rings belonging to the cultivators he had just obliterated shot into the air, clinking neatly before vanishing into his dimensional storage. Having cleared his section of the battlefield, Alex’s gaze—now as cold as a dead star—slowly shifted. Crossing his arms over his chest, he floated mid-air as his black-and-white flame robe fluttered elegantly, focusing his eyes on the battle unfolding near the cavern ceiling in the opposite direction. There, Juanyi was dancing alongside his twin swords of death. KRAAAAAANG! KRAAAAANG! KRAAAAANG! The air inside the cavern vibrated violently every time Juanyi's dual swords clashed with Elder Feng's golden spear. However, this was no balanced duel. This was a structured slaughter. Juanyi was in absolute domination. The comprehension of the Sword Dao that he had honed over the past two months was now exploding to its fullest potential. His twin swords moved like two intertwined silv

Hearing Alex’s final question, the old cultivator who led the group of fugitives swallowed hard. He glanced at the dozens of Heavenly Hall members staring at them like hungry lions, then shifted his gaze to Alex’s eyes, which were as cold as dead stars. On the brink of death, even a mountain of treasures would be useless if their souls were bound and turned into fuel for a curse formation. "We agree! We agree, Senior! Here... take it all!" the old cultivator shouted with trembling hands, immediately removing the spatial ring from his finger and tossing it into the air. That move was immediately followed by the dozen or so wounded cultivators behind him. Without wasting another second, they removed every storage ring and spatial pouch they possessed, throwing them toward Alex as if those precious items were vile poison. Because to them, at this moment, losing their wealth was far better than losing their very existence forever. Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Alex flicked his fingers ca

Seeing their clenched fists still trembling with hesitation, the old cultivator who had been tailing Alex from the beginning could no longer contain himself. With a panicked expression and ragged breathing, he roared hysterically from behind Alex’s back toward the crowd of the Devil's Hand Sect members below. "Hey! What are you waiting for, you fools?!" the old cultivator bellowed, his blood-stained hands pointing toward the pile of corpses around them. "Do you really think you can hold onto that treasure in the face of the Xiao Clan? This young man above you just slaughtered three Peak Early God Realm Elders in a single breath! Hand over your spatial rings now if you still want to see the sun tomorrow! Wealth can be earned again, but if your souls are absorbed by the formation, you will be obliterated forever!" Hearing this horrifying testimony, a flash of absolute terror dominated the eyes of the Devil's Hand Sect members. Without a second thought, the leader of the group immedi
