After the funeral, Adam and Winda returned to Storm City. The air felt heavy, weighed down by the silence that followed grief. Lord Hammer had been laid to rest, but his absence lingered like a scar that would never heal.

For Adam, there was no luxury in mourning. The dead had passed on. The living still had duties, battles, and enemies waiting in the shadows.

He knew exactly what he had to do next.

The divine code.

That strange relic held mysteries he had yet to unravel, and Adam was convinced it was the key to pushing his strength to the next level. If he could comprehend the divine code hidden within it, his power would rise beyond his current limits. And when that time came, he would be ready to reclaim the two amulets that the Deadskull Organization had stolen.

Without hesitation, he made his decision. He entered Hollow Reach Villa and sealed himself away from the outside world. His seclusion began.

But while Adam sought enlightenment, his enemies sought his downfall.

    Yet Adam did not rush to practice the technique.The first requirement alone was madness—abolish his cultivation base.He had spent nearly twenty years climbing the path of martial cultivation, enduring blood, pain, and countless life-and-death battles to reach his current level. Every scar on his body, every victory and defeat, every sleepless night of training—it had all built the foundation he now stood on. To shatter it willingly, to start again from nothing… it was unthinkable.Starting over was easier said than done. And even if he had the courage to do so, the timing could not have been worse.The world was watching him.Phoenix King was already circling like a vulture, exploiting Adam’s identity as the Supreme General while plotting behind his back. The Deadskull Organization, the Red Blood Organization, and other foreign powers had all fixed their eyes on him as well. If he abolished his cultivation now, he would not even last a single day. The moment his strength faltered, t

    Just as Adam was about to give up in frustration, something caught his eye.The droplet of blood he had placed on the divine code was thinning, sinking into the surface as if the metal were alive. Slowly, almost imperceptibly, it disappeared.His pulse quickened. His instincts had been right.Though the metal remained unchanged, the fact that it had absorbed his blood meant there was a hidden mechanism within. His heart pounded with renewed determination as he pricked his finger again, allowing more drops to fall.To his surprise, the relic was far hungrier than he expected. One drop vanished. Then another. Then another. Dozens of milliliters of blood soaked into it, greedily devoured until Adam’s arm grew weak.A lesser man would have collapsed by now, but Adam’s cultivation kept him steady. Even so, a thin sheen of sweat appeared across his brow. The process was draining—but with each pulse of his lifeblood absorbed, something within the divine code began to stir.At first, it was o

    Tessa kept quiet, her lips pressed into a thin line. Her silence spoke louder than words—she didn’t believe Adam. No one in Coastal Flair would.The Marlowe family wasn’t just wealthy; they were a pillar of power, prestige, and influence. Generations of dominance had cemented them as untouchable. To go against them was to court certain destruction. For as long as she could remember, that truth had been carved into her bones.Adam ignored her doubts. He didn’t waste his breath explaining himself to anyone. Instead, he crouched beside Winda, gently lifting her limp form into his arms. Her face was pale, blood trickling from the corner of her lips.His jaw clenched. She had endured too much.Placing a pill between her lips, Adam channeled his energy through her meridians, stabilizing the damage and knitting her internal wounds back together. A faint glow pulsed from his palm as warmth spread through her battered body.Minutes later, her eyelids fluttered. Winda blinked, confusion flashin

    Warriors lived and died by their cores. Every ounce of strength, every drop of cultivated energy was stored there. Now that Julian’s core was shattered, his foundation was ruined forever.For someone at his level, the loss was worse than death. It wasn’t just power that was stripped from him—it was identity, status, pride. A noble young master, reduced to a cripple in a single night.Julian’s body trembled violently. His breathing turned ragged, shallow, uneven. His eyes, once arrogant and full of contempt, were now bloodshot, filled with despair and hatred. In that moment, he lost the will to live. He no longer dreamed of ruling, no longer thought of pleasure. All he wanted was to drag Adam into hell with him.But he couldn’t.His four limbs hung broken, twisted in unnatural angles. His ribs stabbed at his chest every time he gasped for air. His body was little more than a mangled heap of flesh. He couldn’t move. He couldn’t fight. All he had left was his voice and his gaze, spitting

    Julian’s face twisted with rage as he staggered back to his feet. His right arm trembled, veins bulging as he clenched his fist with all the force he could muster. With a furious roar, he drove his punch toward Adam, the air around his knuckles whistling from the sheer power behind it.He was a middle–stage pinnacle grandmaster. A blow like this could shatter stone, could pulverize steel. To him, Adam should have been flattened by it.But Adam didn’t flinch. His expression remained calm, detached, almost bored. At the very last moment, he leaned to the side with effortless precision. Julian’s fist struck nothing but empty air.Before Julian could even react, Adam’s counter came. His fist shot forward like lightning, slamming into Julian’s opposite shoulder.A sharp crack split the night.Julian’s scream tore through the silence—high, broken, and blood-curdling. The sound echoed across the empty surroundings, chilling enough to raise the hair on anyone who heard it.His body crumpled a
