Ember

Ring Ring Ring

The phone made a ringing noise. Immediately, a man in his forties with black undercut hair answers the phone. On the other end of the line is the voice of a woman who, based on her tone, appears anxious.

"Hu? Someone is attacking our clan head quarters. "Who's dumb enough to do that? " He shouted from his throat; he's clearly pissed off.

"That's the thing, Elder Chen. The person attacking is very powerful, and we believe that his strength is at least Master Rank."

"Master Rank ??? Which powerful clan sent a master into our clan ?"

"I have no idea . We failed to know everything about him, but he seems to be a master of flame ki. His control over elemental Ki is very precise, and he is burning our clan to the ground." Her anxious voice trembled with fear as she watched the fiery destruction in front of her.

"How many people die?"

"I don't know , but he's only fighting those who refused to surrender "

"Wait for me." I'll go there myself. Despite the fact that Elder Chen had no knowledge of how many people had already died, he made the brave decision to go and save as many people as he could

.

The whole mansion is already burning when the backup arrives. In front of them are wounded combatants who are lying on the ground.

"Heal the wounded first " Elder Chen spoke in an angry manner.

A bunch of cultivators started transferring their ki to heal the wounded. Their healing technique is not as strong as Mo Shen's, so it took them a couple of minutes to heal their comrades.

"Where is the intruder ?"

"He's inside the Treasury."

"What? How did he decode the lock ? Did he destroy the whole Treasury?"

"No, Master Chen, he just touches the door and it just opened."

"Are you kidding me? That seal was made by a Grand Master. It's not something that can be destroyed easily by a mere touch. " The information provided by his subordinates shocked him. Even an elite from a Silver Rank Clan was asked to help him create that lock. And now, his subordinates are informing him that a simple touch was all it took to destroy it. He would be more inclined to believe them if they claimed that it had been attacked by numerous missiles, but a touch?

"Nevermind, I'm going to go there myself. Butcher, cover me ."

"Yes, Master Chen, They both sprinted in the direction of the Treasury.

The entrance to the Treasury was open when they arrived. There was no sign of forceful entry, so it just confirmed his subordinate's statement.

Their faces were filled with surprise and anxiousness. It was hard to believe that such a powerful person existed. Seal decoding is only possible if the user has a thorough understanding of the seal's patterns. Although it is theoretically possible, few people actually attempt to do this due to its difficulty.

"Master Chen, look at the Treasury." Butcher pointed his finger at the now-empty Treasury.

"How can it be empty? It's not possible for a single person to take all those resources in one go."

"Did he use a spacial storage perhaps? Butcher voice out his opinion but he seemed to think otherwise

.

"That's impossible; spacial storage is very hard to find." Master Chen answered.

"Then how did he do it?"

"I'm not sure. However, we must be ready in case he has any allies."

"Is he still here ?" Butcher scanned the place with his senses.

"Yes, I can feel a faint trace of mana deep inside the underground room "

"Let's go, Master Chen. I will be the vanguard and protect you " Butcher unsheathed his double-edged sword from his waist.The sword is around 45 inches in length; it is silver in color, and there is a claw-like shape on its hilt.

They both move slowly in the direction of the Treasury. They must exercise caution because the intruders appear to feel secure in attacking the clan by himself. It simply indicates that he has the confidence to pull this job off.

"The intruder might really be a master rank; we need to be careful " Master Chen spoke. He's only at the early stage of Master Rank so he's afraid that the enemy is stronger.

"Why is a master like that trying to destroy our clan? Did we aggravate some high-ranking clan?" Butcher asks.

"Of course not! We are only a Bronze Rank clan, so there's no way someone from our family is bold enough to do that ." Elder Chen replied in frustration.

"Then why are we being harassed like this? " Butcher was clearly pissed off. He was the most talented cultivator in their clan and was already close to reaching Master Rank before the age of 30. Now he was summoned here to deal with someone who could kill him.

"There's a person in front "

They saw a tall young man with red hair and amber eyes sitting leisurely on the floor. It was Mo Shen. He once again used his shapeshifting spell to create another persona .

They stopped advancing and became more cautious.

"Who are you and why did you attack our clan?" Master Chen asked while already thinking of ways to attack this unknown enemy.

"Master Chen? The Clan Leader?" Mo Shen spoke and smiled. "I have been waiting for you "

"Waiting? It seems you're really confident in your power, but why is someone like you attacking our small clan?"

Mo Shen simply smiled at them.

"It seems you don't have any plans to answer, so you should just die "

"Wind Blade " A gale of wind shot towards Mo Shen at high speed. Butcher took this opportunity and exploaded in speed to close the gap between him and Mo Shen.

"A swordsman ?" Mo Shen saw the attack and smiled. This is a good opportunity for him to test his skills.

"Break for me " Mo Shen jump from his sitting postion and punched the wind blade directly,

-Boom

The wind blade immediately collapsed from impact. It could not handle a single punch from Mo Shen.

Butcher saw this and became more certain that the unknown invader is very powerful. He gathered all his strength and slashed his sword viciously at Mo Shen's head. Mo Shen remained calm in the face of this attack and gracefully avoided the strike with a simple backstep , but the attack created a wind slash, so it still managed to hit him.

Cling

Mo Shen blocks the wind with his crossed arms.

A few superficial wounds appeared on his arms, but they were not that deep. He also uses this opportunity to do a somersault and create a distance between them

Butcher is nearly master rank, and he focuses all his power on that attack. The force of his attack is very powerful. Mo Shen's arm would have been slashed off if not for his Golden Budda Technique.

"Damn, this guy is quite talented " Mo Shen was happy to meet someone good at close quarter combat.

But before he could say anything, another wind attack came at him.

"Wind Fist " Elder Chen uses his fist to generate multiple wind blasts. Every punch he executes is very lethal. Mo Shen was bombarded by multiple highly concentrated balls made of pressurized wind. Each of these balls is capable of blasting a hole the size of a basketball.

Mo Shen saw this and finally used a spell to even out the odds.

"Fighting two high level warriors is still very hard for me." Mo Shen used support spells to enhance his body.

"Hex: Magma Armor " Magma burst out from the floor and immediately covered Mo Shen . He looks like a real life magma man. The magma armor acted as an external protection, helping Mo Shen to counter the attacks of both warriors

He created this spell for his new persona. He needs to deceive others into thinking that the godly sect has many powerful fighters.

Boom

Boom

Boom

Boom

The pressurized air hit Mo Shen, but it only dented his armor a little.

Master Chen and Butcher's expressions turned sour the moment they saw the intimidating set of magma armor. The enemy now appears more like a monster than a person.

"I didn't know that such martial arts techniques existed." Butcher spoke with a concerned look. He can feel the heat coming from the enemy even from a distance.

"No....This can't be real." Master Chen was forced to step back after witnessing the magma armor.

"Union with the element" He mumbled those words with a trembling tone, unsure of what he should do next

"Union with the element ?" Butcher asked in confusion.

Master Chen paused for a moment and replied.

"It's a state only possible for Grandmaster rank."

"Then...." Butcher was also filled with dread as he realized the implications of what Master Chen had said.

"We can't win " Master Chen felt helpless.

They seem to misunderstand my spell? Mo Shen overheard their conversation and grinned. He realized how ignorant the people of this era are.
