Once, I wanted to be a good person

What did they just see? Fang Ze has reached the Yang Transformation stage? And he also killed a Yang Transformation stage expert?

The assembled experts couldn't believe their eyes.

At this moment, the elder who had stayed in the swamp to deal with the demigod believers and later caught up with them looked at Fang Ze thoughtfully. After a moment, he asked Bai Zhi's father, who was floating nearby, "Patriarch Bai, the sword technique Fang Ze just used seemed extraordinary."

"Your Bai Family is a martial arts family, so you should understand this more than anyone else present."

Hearing the old man's words, the others also couldn't help but look at Bai Zhi's father, waiting for his explanation.

Upon hearing the elder's words, Bai Zhi's father, who had been in a state of godhood since earlier, came back to his senses. He glanced at everyone, then nodded first, followed by shaking his head, "This martial skill actually isn't profound, merely a medium-level skill."

"But... Fang Ze's understanding and mastery of this skill are extremely profound."

He considered his words and then said, "He has reached the pinnacle level of mastery with this martial skill."

"One could say that this skill, in his hands, has become entirely instinctual. He can execute and use it as he pleases, without being confined to any one move, casually incorporating the effects of the skill into any strike."

"For someone Fang Ze's age, achieving this requires both talent and perseverance."

"Thinking about how short a time he's been involved with martial arts, it's truly..." Saying this, Bai Zhi's father couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, "Unimaginable."

In this world, martial skills are generally studied below the Spirit Ascension level, so the understanding of martial skills isn't very deep. Hearing Bai Zhi's father's words, they couldn't help but look at Fang Ze with some surprise.

Clearly, they were somewhat amazed at Fang Ze's talent and persistence.

However, what the others didn't know was that while praising Fang Ze, Bai Zhi's father was also questioning in his heart,

'Instant Kill? Why has Fang Ze trained such an obscure martial skill to such a degree?'

He thought, 'Over these years... besides Zhi, it's really rare to see anyone practicing this middle-level martial skill.'

'No wonder Zhi likes him.'

'This kid indeed has many similarities with Zhi.'

.......

Meanwhile, as Fang Ze had just killed the first real attacker.

In the abdomen cave of the hill people, several figures were conversing.

"Why hasn't Gong Na returned yet? With her Yang Transformation level strength, dealing with a Fusion stage opponent shouldn't take this long."

"Yeah. Could something have gone wrong?"

"It shouldn't have. The spatial barrier wall has already been created, and our group's spatial transmission anchor points have been generated. How could anything go wrong?"

Even though they were discussing this, there was little worry or tension on their faces.

After all, only five minutes had passed since the spatial barrier wall had been established: in strict terms, it was a normal time frame. They were obviously looking for an excuse to go over and claim some credit early.

So at this point, they couldn't help but look to the leading figure and said, "Actually, Gong Na might indeed have run into trouble. After all, there are so many experts around Fang Ze. If some other experts were accidentally trapped within the spatial barrier wall, she could indeed be in danger."

"Makes sense."

"Agreed."

With the groundwork laid, they had an excuse. One person looked at the leader and said, "Sir, to avoid any real accidents, how about we go over and take a look now?"

The leading figure glanced at them, seeing through their true intentions with one look.

He was evidently too uninterested in controlling them, so he casually said, "If you want to go, then go."

Seeing the leader's agreement, the other figures suddenly showed joy on their faces.

But just as they were about to teleport away, the leader suddenly added, "Don't let your guard down. Since you're going, be prepared for battle."

"Also, go together; don't give anyone a chance to take you out separately."

Although he said this, he clearly didn't care too much.

Seeing this, even though they responded with a "yes," they were only slightly less relaxed than before.

Then they gave a slight bow and neatly activated the teleportation devices on their bodies.

As the teleportation devices activated, their bodies flashed and immediately turned into phantoms, disappearing from that spot.

After they left, the cavern was left with only the leading figure.

The figure looked at the place where they vanished, his gaze full of calm and seriousness. After deliberately pausing for over a dozen seconds, his body gradually became transparent, as if he had gone invisible.

Soon, a faint flash of light shone in the cave, and then everything returned to calm: it appeared that this person wasn't as careless on the surface, and had in fact stealthily teleported over...

.....

At the same time. Inside the spatial barrier wall.

Sitting cross-legged, Fang Ze slowly opened his eyes, then looked at the six individuals who suddenly appeared before him.

The six individuals consisted of five men and one woman. They appeared mostly in their thirties or forties, without any particular aura, but it was clear that those who could enter the spatial barrier wall must be Yang Transformation stage experts.

'So many people?'

'Looks like a tough fight ahead... but it's still within anticipations.'

Thinking this, Fang Ze couldn't help but stand up, and as he looked at those people, he also recalled some preparations he made the previous night.

Besides preparing some magic tools and abilities for escape and survival, Fang Ze also specifically enhanced his own strength last night!

And his primary means of enhancement was... exploiting Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi is arguably the most gifted person Fang Ze has met in both martial arts and skills. When he first saw Bai Zhi's impressive profile, Fang Ze was genuinely astonished.

Those numerous martial skills at the perfection level were blindingly outstanding. (Chapter 36)

One could say, even if Bai Zhi was given a tree branch, she could have a hundred ways to kill!

Fang Ze also gave Bai Zhi many gifts; aside from anything else, just the Beauty Mermaid was 1000 credit points a day.

Fang Ze gave Bai Zhi the Beauty Mermaid for nearly two months, having long accumulated tens of thousands of credit points, allowing him to borrow any of Bai Zhi's martial skills and footwork freely and with ease.

Earlier, Fang Ze also borrowed Bai Zhi's perfection-level Instant Step + perfection-level Instant Kill, forming a powerful slaughter skill, and coupled with his strong Yang Transformation stage power, he dispatched his enemy within a few moves.

And now, facing the six new Yang Transformation stage experts, Fang Ze's mind was rapidly going through the martial skills Bai Zhi knew, thinking about how to efficiently handle these people.

At this time, the six demigod believers were also stunned. Before entering the spatial barrier wall, they genuinely only wanted to snatch credit and didn't anticipate any unexpected event: or rather, even if something unexpected happened, it would be because other experts were trapped within the spatial barrier wall.

After arriving here, however, they found that within the spatial barrier wall, there was only Fang Ze, and Gong Na... had already turned into a corpse, reduced to a mass of bloody flesh and remains.

For a moment, all their hairs stood on end! This terror of the roles of prey and hunter switching made them instinctively tense, warily looking at Fang Ze.

Then, at that moment, Fang Ze, having decided on how to deal with the people in front of him, moved!

With another execution of Instant Step, Fang Ze vanished from the spot, and when he reappeared, he was behind the six people!

Immediately after, he used Instant Kill, a flash of cold light slicing towards the six!

At that moment, with a sense of crisis imminent, the six hurriedly each displayed their own abilities, with some defending against the attack and others dodging. For a time, their formation was instantly disrupted!

At this point, Fang Ze scanned the entire scene, withdrawing the sword he had swung fiercely. Then, his figure flashed once more!

When he reappeared, he was already beside the only female believer among the six, then punched towards her!

In that instant, his fist seemed to condense terrifying thunder, with the surroundings echoing the crackling sound of friction in the air!

Perfection-level Thundering Fist!

Strangely, however, his sword was nowhere to be seen...
