The black-robed man's reaction to the abrupt, aged voice behind him was as swift as lightning and as fierce as thunder; he bent his waist, spun around, and unleashed a palm strike in one fluid motion.

The Battle Qi of a level ten Strong Warrior churned like a dragon, condensing behind him into the savage, terrifying form of a reptile totem that Zhang Tie had never seen before. Having been hunted by this man for so long, this was the first time Zhang Tie had witnessed the true appearance of a level ten Strong Warrior's Battle Qi Totem.

A muffled boom like a thunderclap echoed in the air as the man's palms instantly slammed into the chest of the figure standing behind him.

Time seemed to freeze in that very moment...

The black-robed man finally saw clearly who was standing behind him.

It was an old man, one who looked like a beggar, with messy hair and tattered clothes.

The man was stunned, but not as stunned as Zhang Tie, for Zhang Tie recognized this old man—though he had never imagined he would appear here, and in such a manner.

Just moments ago, Zhang Tie had watched with wide eyes as this old man walked out of the river of magma, just as easily as one might step out of an ordinary stream.

Someone could actually enter the magma? Zhang Tie felt his brain short-circuit slightly.

For a fleeting moment, Zhang Tie even suspected he was hallucinating. But the reaction of the black-robed man told Zhang Tie it was no hallucination, for the man in black had heard it, seen it, and had even slammed his full-force palms into the old man's chest.

What was the consequence of being struck by the full-force palms of a level ten Strong Warrior?
