"This damned place is definitely strange!"
Liu Jingguo had been staring at the young man without even blinking, yet he had simply evaporated into thin air.

The young man's strength just now had far exceeded the normal standard of the First Heaven. Whether in speed, force, or adaptability, he could even rival a Quadruple Heaven Strong Martial practitioner—lacking only the Strong Martial Golden Body.
