Semua Bab The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection: Bab 1331 - Bab 1340

If it were not for Felix being there, Holden would not have had the courage to approach the stone table. As he got closer, the ancient text began to appear on the wall behind it. Holden could not read most of it. "Mr. Zeller, can you understand what this says?"Felix nodded, a smile forming on his face. "This is definitely Francis' work. It's safe, and there's no danger. The serum is in the box. Go ahead and take it. Then, drip your blood on the two statues. They'll obey your commands."Having encountered living statues in Astoria, Felix was not surprised by Francis' creations. They were likely meant to protect his descendants.Upon hearing Felix's reassurance, Holden relaxed and managed a weak smile. But just as he was about to step forward, a loud crack echoed through the chamber, startling him. "Get back!" Felix extended his right hand, pulling Holden behind him with a swift motion.The two statues began to crack, the sound growing louder as fissures spread across their surf

"Mr. Zeller, the inkstone is yours now," Paul said as he handed the inkstone over in the car. Felix smiled and replied, "Give me your account details, and I'll transfer the 100 million dollars to you. Also, if Holden doesn't change after having the baby, reach out to me. I'll return the inkstone. You can trust my integrity, right?"Paul did not hesitate for a second. "Of course, I trust you! Just the fact that you'd say that is beyond anything I could have imagined. Besides, without you, Holden would have been dead already."…Back at the hotel, Felix was too excited to sleep. He immediately placed the inkstone and the small vial on the table. But when he looked at the vial, he was stunned. He distinctly remembered Holden drinking every last drop of the black liquid two hours ago, yet now, there was a tiny amount of the liquid pooled at the bottom again."Could the black liquid regenerate itself?" Felix was thrilled by this discovery. It confirmed his suspicion that the vial wa

Paul stood at the edge of the desert, his eyes fixed on the horizon, filled with anxiety. Zuera was a place of stark contrasts—to the east, endless vineyards stretched as far as the eye could see, while to the west, where he now stood, lay a barren desert area with uneven terrain, some spots rising as high as several dozen yards above the flat ground.The desert was home to nothing but an abandoned fertilizer factory, long shut down and left to decay. The area was desolate, with no signs of life, not even a single tree. The note specified the meeting point as this very factory, and Felix went in alone, instructing Paul to set up an airbag here. The plan was to throw Holden from a distance, ensuring he landed safely on the cushion.To be honest, Paul had initially thought Felix was joking. The idea of throwing someone that far seemed impossible, let alone ensuring they survived the fall. However, Felix had insisted it would work, so Paul had no choice but to trust him. Meanwhile

Felix's lips curled into a slight smirk as he launched his fists forward, moving so fast that even afterimages were hard to see. His punches collided violently with Terrence's serpent, grizzly, saber, and panther-like energy forms. The sheer force of their clash instantly reduced the entire fertilizer plant to rubble, as if it had never existed in the first place.Terrence's excitement grew, and he laughed maniacally. "This is exhilarating! No wonder the Ancient Sage has taken notice of you. Now that the warm-up's over, let's get serious."He suddenly bit his finger and muttered something under his breath. Then, the four gray energy arms surrounding him swelled in size and speed.Terrence, who had kept his real hands idle until now, finally began to move them. His power had skyrocketed, forcing Felix to bring out his Dragon Punches to keep up. "Impressive! You're actually pushing me back a bit," Terrence admitted after a few minutes, genuinely shocked by Felix's strength. As o

As Terrence launched his final strike, the phantom images of a serpent, grizzly, saber, and panther flickered around him, each one adding to the overwhelming power of the attack. Even before the blow landed, Felix could feel the sheer intensity radiating from it."Your last move?" Felix frowned, sensing another wave of soul energy attacks coming his way. This time, the two streams of soul energy merged mid-air, forming a single, devastating force that descended upon him from above.Without hesitation, Felix summoned the Mountain Mover, a powerful soul-bound weapon he had recently acquired, and hurled it at the merged soul energy. At the same time, he unleashed his Dragon Punches, clashing head-on with Terrence's attack.Soul energy attacks were always faster than any martial technique, so Felix knew he had to neutralize that threat first. He remembered his fight with Bonnie, where he had not had the chance to use his martial skills because of the relentless soul energy assault. He
