At once, a stream of information appeared inside his brain, and an illusory figure materialized in his mind, demonstrating the Phantom Sky Step and providing an explanation.

When the illusory figure vanished from his mind, he realized he had comprehended the basics of the movement skill. Comparing the Phantom Sky Step to his previous movement skill was like comparing dirt to gold.

Although it seemed like it had taken a long time, it happened in the blink of an eye, leaving the ancient being clueless about what had just transpired.

The ancient being stood proudly a few meters away from Su Yen, waiting for his response. Su Yen, though struggling, managed to stand and looked at the ancient being with a stoic expression.

"What do you say?" The ancient being asked impatiently.

"Take me as your disciple. Aren't you even scared?" Su Yen inquired, his voice dripping with ridicule.

"It seems I've gone easy on you," the ancient being muttered, clearly irked by the mocking tone in Su Yen's voice.

Whoosh!

The ancient being disappeared from his spot, moving at a speed impossible for the eyes to follow. In a blink, he appeared in front of Su Yen with a claw attack, trying to dig out his heart.

His claw pierced through Su Yen's heart, but something didn't add up. The Su Yen in front of him disappeared into thin air.

'What just happened?' He cried out in his mind.

Before he could process what had just occurred, he heard Su Yen's voice behind him. "Three Resonance Thunderstrike."

Instantly, the air behind him crackled with lightning. All the hair on his body stood on end, and his heart pounded heavily as if it wanted to leap out of his chest.

His body reacted on instinct, using his movement skill to the limit. One of his aces was his speed; he didn't think anything on this mortal planet could match it.

Unfortunately, reality was about to slap him in the face.

Before he could take two steps, a blinding Thunderstrike appeared in front of him. "W-What…"

Bang!

The Thunderstrike slammed into his body, and he was sent flying with a miserable scream. His massive body rolled in the air and crashed into the chamber wall.

The mountain shook vehemently, deep spider cracks appeared on the chamber wall. A scorching smoke billowed from the ancient being. For a few seconds, his head was dizzy, full of shock and confusion.

It was then that his instincts screamed of another incoming danger. 'Dammit!' He tried to get on his feet quickly, but Su Yen's attack arrived in the blink of an eye.

Bang! Bang!

Ahhhhh!

"You've pushed me to the edge…." The ancient being screamed.

Before another Thunderstrike could hit his body, a bright purple light appeared around him, forming a shield. The Thunderstrike bounced off the shield, causing not even a ripple.

'As I expected, this old thing had a lot of tricks up his sleeves,' Su Yen thought, a sly grin curling at the corners of his lips.

"I'm going to kill you," the ancient being shouted and disappeared from his position, rushing toward Su Yen while throwing punch after punch.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Various deafening sounds resounded throughout the chamber, and the thousands of coffins were destroyed. But the ancient being didn't seem to care as he focused on killing Su Yen.

However, every time he thought he had struck Su Yen down, he realized it was just his phantom. The more the two continued their cat-and-mouse action, the more he found it unbelievable.

Speed was one of his fortes, but now, he was being overshadowed. He was brimming with anger, and he was on the brink of madness.

"Why are you running? Stop and fight like a man," he cried out in exasperation.

"Are you stupid or what? You're at the peak of Core Refining realm, and you dare tell me to stop and fight like a real man. Are you even a real man?" Su Yen's voice was dripping with scorn.

Ahhhhhh!

The ancient being's eyes were bloodshot, veins protruding from his forehead, and powerful shock waves spread out of his body.

Watching the incoming shock waves, Su Yen knew he couldn't avoid them and stopped. He took a deep breath and attacked.

"Sword Burial - Deathwrath."

Everything seemed to stand still, darkness descended into the chamber with a chilling sharpness that made the ancient being cowered in fear.

The incoming wave was sliced into two, and the Deathwrath continued on its path.

Boom!

It collided against the purple shield, and instantly web cracks appeared on the shield. Watching the cracks, the ancient was scared.

'It's impossible to break my defense.' He cried in his heart.

However, he had yet to complete his thought when the shield shattered into pieces, and he was sent flying with a dumbfounded gaze.

Now, he was questioning himself. Who was the ancient one? Him or Su Yen. The thought only appeared in his mind, but he threw it out of his mind.

Even though he was in deep pain with deep cuts appearing on his chest, he stood with his mouth drenched in blood. The last attack had caused a lot of damage to his body, but he didn't care.

"Is there anything you want to try, hmm?" He taunted. "I'm an immortal. If not for this weak world not allowing me to use my real strength, I would have turned you to nothingness long ago," he announced arrogantly.

"There is still something I haven't tried. I didn't want to use it yet, but I guess I'll have to use it," Su Yen responded casually.

As he spoke, a massive black pagoda appeared behind him. He waved his hand and muttered. "Elemental – Blood suppression."

The ancient being opened his mouth to speak, only to realize he was under a heavy suppression. All the blood in his body was boiling vehemently. His spiritual essence was running amok.

'What's this?!' He exclaimed in his heart.

He gnashed his teeth, veins protruding from his forehead as he tried to force himself out of the suppression zone. 'Nothing in this world can suppress me,' he screamed inwardly.

Su Yen looked at the ancient being struggling and took a step closer, and the pagoda behind him shone brighter.

"Spirit Restraint." A sigil emerged from Su Yen's hand and entered the ancient being's forehead.

The Spirit Restraint was the second level of the pagoda bloodline. It was more deadly and powerful than the Elemental – Blood Suppression.

Instantly, his soul and spirit fell under a heavy suppression. The suppression was so powerful that in the blink of a second, it had restrained his soul and spirit.

The ancient being lost his power and looked at Su Yen like a fool. He had lost every ounce of power, he didn't have the ability to think. Everything was under suppression.

Su Yen stopped a couple of feet from the ancient being and looked at him for a couple of seconds before clicking his tongue. "The Pagoda Bloodline is too overpowering."

Bang!

He severed the head of the ancient being, and it rolled on the ground for several meters. Suddenly, the mountain began to tremble vehemently.

The dark cloud over the barren land began to slowly clear, and rays of sunlight shone onto the land.

Su Yen, drenched in blood, walked slowly out of the mountain when he heard a notification in his head.
