A pillar of blood-red smoke hundreds of meters high surged upwards, its invisible pressure easily radiating out over a thousand meters, like the oppression of a higher life form towards a weaker one.

It wasn't just the people within this range; the birds and beasts on the mountain, with their already keen senses, also detected a sense of pressure, as if animals facing their natural predator. They were so terrified they trembled uncontrollably and remained prostrate, unmoving.

The road built at the foot of the mountain was a vital artery for entering and exiting Jiangnan City, with many vehicles traveling along it. The people inside the cars also noticed the strange pillar of blood-red smoke rising from the mountain. They immediately reacted, quickly pulling out their phones to capture the bizarre sight and post it online.

Some of the bolder ones even changed their direction of travel. Following their car navigation, they noticed a place called Dashe Village nearby, which was accessible by car. Thus, soon, some people decided to drive directly towards the direction of the blood-red smoke pillar.

With so many witnesses and so much shared video, the news quickly spread online, attracting the attention of many netizens.

Of course, since this phenomenon was not too far from Jiangnan City, only about a hundred to eighty kilometers away, it also attracted many people who were relatively close by, preparing to go and witness this peculiar sight.

At this moment, in a villa in Jiangnan City, Second Master Sun happened to discover related news on his phone.

--A blood-red smoke pillar hundreds of meters high has appeared in the mountains near Dashe Village! It is also accompanied by abnormal ground vibrations!

Looking at the words "Dashe Village" and "blood-red smoke pillar" in the message, Second Master Sun immediately thought of what had happened a month ago.

Three grave robbers who often supplied him brought a tattered ancient scroll. It mentioned the Wu Ming Ruins and contained clues about the Human Immortal Martial Dao. A Martial Dao Human Immortal could live for three hundred years, their vital energy like a dragon, capable of collapsing mountains with a single punch. This already involved supernatural mysteries.

Connecting this to the recent National Martial Arts craze, and looking at the videos of Pillaring Grandmasters walking on water and shattering walls, rebar, and steel plates with a single punch like superheroes, even such incredible existences had appeared. This Martial Dao Human Immortal involved the supernatural. What if it were real? The thought alone was astonishing.

However, Second Master Sun recalled the three men in black who had infiltrated the place. They had silently dealt with all the security guards at the auction house and his four bodyguards. Even guns were useless against them. If their target hadn't been the tattered scroll containing information about the Wu Ming Ruins and clues to the Human Immortal Martial Dao, they would have only been knocked unconscious. If the intruders had malicious intent, they wouldn't even know how they died.

Thinking of this, Second Master Sun couldn't help but feel a surge of hatred. Not only was the item he bought for a million dollars stolen, but he was also knocked unconscious. It was infuriating no matter how he thought about it.

Looking at the rolling pillar of blood-red smoke in the online video, Second Master Sun sneered. He decided to retaliate fiercely from behind the scenes by directly leaking the information related to the Wu Ming Ruins and the Human Immortal Martial Dao, attracting official attention, and not letting them keep this secret to themselves.

Thus, fueled by a desire for revenge, Second Master Sun waved his hand and found an online media operator, spreading the news to disrupt their plans.

As a result, many related videos and posts quickly appeared online, all exposing the truth behind the blood-red smoke pillar near Dashe Village. Coupled with the swift actions of these big influencers.

--Shocking! Received top-secret internal information! The mysterious phenomenon near Dashe Village is actually related to a hidden Wu Ming Ruins!!

--Received top-secret intelligence! The hundreds-of-meters-high blood-red smoke pillar in Dashe Village hides clues to the ancient Human Immortal Martial Dao!!

--Hurry to the Jiangnan region! A mysterious ancient ruin has appeared in Dashe Village! It hides a world-shattering secret!!

--...

These messages spread rapidly online. If it were in the past, perhaps no one would have believed such things. However, since the appearance of videos related to Pillaring Grandmasters and Transforming Strength Great Boxers, National Martial Arts had already demonstrated its power. Moreover, after more than a month, with more and more people achieving Manifesting Strength, they were also enticed by the rumors of the Human Immortal Martial Dao circulating online.

Cultivating the Human Immortal Martial Dao and achieving the Martial Dao Human Immortal status would grant a lifespan of three hundred years, vital energy like a dragon, and the ability to collapse mountains with a single punch. This already touched upon supernatural mysteries.

What if it were true? If they obtained the cultivation methods of the Human Immortal Martial Dao, wouldn't they also be able to possess a long lifespan of three hundred years and terrifying strength, just like the Martial Dao Human Immortal? Where in this world couldn't they go?!

Thus, soon, many nearby netizens rushed towards that direction, ready to try their luck and seize this opportunity.
