A Startling Swan, Blood Qi Smoke Dissipates, Wu Ming Ruins Open

In Da She village, almost everyone present immediately recognized the imposing man who had burst onto the scene a month and a half ago, clashing with hidden Transforming Strength Grandmasters in the cities and igniting a craze for National Martial Arts.

He was a martial artist with pure intent and immense personal power. Though he had only appeared in a few videos, his online popularity was sky-high, and he was regarded as an idol by countless young netizens practicing National Martial Arts.

Amidst the exclamations, Li Hansha moved like a nimble bird, using the adjacent rooftops for leverage. With each leap, he easily covered twenty to thirty meters, his speed incredible. Those present only had time to capture his image as he gracefully traversed the rooftops before he departed, leaving them with a sense of regret.

"Holy crap, I'm so lucky today! I actually got to see Master Li Hansha in person!!"

"Good thing my reflexes were fast and my phone was already on. I got the whole thing of Master Li Hansha! He's just too cool and charming!!"

"Brothers, we can confirm it now! The ruins really do hide the Human Immortal Martial Dao, which involves supernatural power! Otherwise, even a Pillaring Grandmaster like this wouldn't have been alerted!!"

As the videos recorded at the scene were uploaded online, they sparked even more intense discussions, with many regretting not knowing the news sooner.

The official in charge of maintaining order at the scene watched the fleeting figure disappear into the forest with a grave expression, immediately reporting the incident.

The Wu Ming Ruins near Da She village had attracted even a powerful Pillaring Grandmaster like Li Hansha, indicating that unimaginable secrets were hidden within. The online talk of 'Human Immortal Martial Dao' might also be true, otherwise, why would it attract such a Pillaring Grandmaster?!

Of course, the officials' greatest concern now was: during the upcoming exploration of the ruins, if they truly found the Human Immortal Martial Dao cultivation method, what would they do if they clashed with a Pillaring Grandmaster possessing terrifying combat power? Would they hand it over? What should they do then?!

The authorities had witnessed the terrifying capabilities of such Pillaring Grandmasters: their extreme mobility and destructive power rendered ordinary firearms useless. According to the research lab's calculations, in complex terrain, 100 fully armed elite special forces soldiers would struggle to deal with a single Pillaring Grandmaster.

Within a radius of about 400 meters from the pillar of bloody smoke, over 200 Manifesting Strength level boxers were already gathered. Manifesting Strength practitioners within a 300-kilometer radius had all come, making the area quite lively.

They could be broadly divided into two factions: one comprised of individuals who practiced National Martial Arts privately, and the other consisting of official special forces troops equipped with various elite gear. In terms of numbers, the former held the advantage, being about three times the latter. However, if a fight were to break out, the latter, armed with guns, knives, and grenades, would undoubtedly prevail.

The civilian Manifesting Strength boxers were contemplating what to do if they clashed with the official special forces during the upcoming ruin exploration, should they find the Human Immortal Martial Dao cultivation method hidden within.

It was precisely for this reason that the scene quickly divided into two distinct factions, with the civilian and official Manifesting Strength boxers mutually wary of each other.

Li Hansha's Clone, using tree branches for leverage, glided in like a bird. This imposing entrance immediately caused a stir among the crowd. Both the civilian and official Manifesting Strength boxers couldn't help but narrow their eyes, their expressions growing solemn.

Even a Pillaring Grandmaster with terrifying combat power like Li Hansha had been alerted, making the exploration of the Wu Ming Ruins more difficult. Even if the Human Immortal Martial Dao truly existed, it would likely fall into his hands.

As the thoughts of everyone present churned, Gu Chen's eyes flashed, and a slight smile touched his lips. He didn't intend to let only Li Hansha's Clone, Wang Tianba, and the four Transforming Strength Grand Boxers explore the ruins. If that were the case, what would be the point? How would he obtain Origin Points?!

Having made his decision, Gu Chen willed it, connecting with the system and indirectly influencing the power within the Wu Ming Ruins, causing the hundreds of meters tall pillar of surging blood and smoke to halt.

The ground trembled for a moment. The rolling blood and smoke 400 meters away paused and began to slowly retract into the Wu Ming Ruins. The oppressive force visibly diminished at an alarming rate.

This sudden turn of events stunned the over 200 Manifesting Strength boxers present. They watched the blood-red pillar of smoke slowly recede, their breathing becoming heavy.

"I, I think the pressure has lessened. Can we also enter the Wu Ming Ruins to explore now..." a civilian Manifesting Strength boxer whispered.
