"Old Celestial Master, watch out."
Ian gave a slight smile, and his figure instantly blurred. In the next breath, he appeared before the Old Celestial Master as if teleporting—not even the Ten Masters could track his movement.
Ian raised his right fist. It appeared to be a common punch, yet it was coiled with visible, tangible magnetic energy. The energy manifested as a unique blue glow, with countless tiny electric arcs leaping within it.
"Look closely. This is the most fundamental power of Magnetic Field Rotation."
Before the fist even landed, the horrific pressure caused the Old Celestial Master's protective Golden Light to emit an unbearable creaking sound! The surface of the golden light shattered into countless fissures, resembling cracked glass.
The Old Taoist Master's expression turned solemn as he operated the Golden Light Curse and the Vajra Body to their limits to defend, but the power contained in Ian's punch was far beyond his imagination!
BANG!
With a thunderous explosion, the protective Golden Light on the Old Taoist Master's body shattered into pieces like glass. He was sent flying by an irresistible, titanic force. His body traced an arc through the air before slamming heavily against the protective barrier at the edge of the arena, letting out a muffled groan.
A trace of blood leaked from the corner of the Old Taoist Master's mouth, his eyes filled with shock. Ian had clearly held back; the victory was decided!
The entire arena fell into a deathly silence!
Everyone stared at this scene, dumbfounded! The "Unrivaled" of the outcast world, the Old Celestial Master, had actually lost? And he had lost so decisively!
Ian had used only 10,000 Horsepower to defeat the Old Celestial Master who had gone all out!
Shock, fear, confusion... various emotions spread through the hearts of the crowd. No one could believe what they were seeing, but the truth sat right before them, allowing for no doubt.
Ian withdrew his fist and scanned the audience, as if announcing the arrival of a new era. The power of Magnetic Field Rotation was about to completely overturn the entire outcast world!
"10,000 Horsepower of Magnetic Field Rotation is merely the entry-level for the 1st Level in my system. As for me, I have already surpassed a hundred levels." Ian's voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.
The Old Taoist Master struggled to his feet and wiped the blood from his mouth. There wasn't a hint of humiliation in his eyes; instead, they were filled with a thirst for knowledge.
"This Magnetic Field Rotation of yours is something I have never heard of. I wonder if you would be willing to offer some guidance?"
Ian nodded, a flash of approval in his eyes.
As the outcasts below broke into a flurry of discussion, Ian smiled at the Old Taoist Master's request.
"Magnetic Field Rotation is a system completely different from Qi. Before I explain, I'll handle some small troubles first."
Ian's voice was calm, yet it felt like a drawn sword, causing everyone present to instinctively straighten their backs.
He extended his arms and flicked his fingers. The terrifying magnetic force instantly diffused, covering all of Dragon-Tiger Mountain in an instant.
The crowd watched in awe as a visible ripple pulsed through the air. Following that, a series of startled cries erupted as numerous figures were suddenly dragged toward the arena, suspended in mid-air with stiff limbs, unable to move.
"Who are these people?"
"That guy is from Quan Xing!" someone in the crowd recognized a figure and shouted.
"I know that one too, they're also Quan Xing."
As more and more Quan Xing members were identified, the scene erupted into chaos. The captured Quan Xing members included men and women, young and old. All were struggling desperately, yet under Ian's magnetic control, they couldn't break free at all.
The Old Taoist Master narrowed his eyes and immediately recognized Gong Qing, who was suspended among them. This was "Xiao Yuzi," the one who had been looking after Elder Tian.
Beyond the shock, he quickly realized the truth: Xiao Yuzi was actually a member of Quan Xing!
What startled him even more was how Ian had managed to round up so many Quan Xing members lurking in various places without any warning. Had he seen through everything from the start?
"Sect Leader, save me!" a dim-witted Quan Xing member couldn't help but cry out to Gong Qing.
Gong Qing's face went dark. He rolled his eyes and complained internally, 'Are you blind? Can't you see I'm hanging here too?'
By now, he had completely given up on struggling, cold sweat dripping from his forehead. Having witnessed Ian's horrific strength, he realized he was less than an ant. Furthermore, compared to the secrets of the previous "Shen-Jia Riot," the power displayed by this man was the true mystery worth investigating.
"Gong Qing, Sect Leader of Quan Xing," Ian introduced to the Old Taoist Master. "They infiltrated the Grand Luo Heaven Sacrifice with the goal of causing massive chaos in the outcast world, eventually planning to interrogate Elder Tian to extract the secrets of the 'Shen-Jia Riot.'
"Now, let's see what 'good deeds' these people have actually done."
Ian's tone was icy, sending a shiver through everyone present.
Then, the most shocking scene occurred.
Ian closed his eyes and flicked his fingers. The magnetic force vibrated like ripples on water, and countless images suddenly appeared out of thin air, as clear as holographic projections.
"Is this—their memories?" Lu Jin cried out, his eyes full of disbelief.
Indeed, the memories of the Quan Xing members were being directly read and projected by Ian for everyone to see!
Horrific, bloody images followed one after another. The screams of the innocent, the cries of children, the wails of the elderly—every atrocity and evil deed was displayed clearly before the crowd.
In one image, someone was manually cutting open a woman's belly to remove an unformed fetus for some evil ritual. In another, someone was smiling as they used Qi to snap an old man's limbs one by one, finally letting him suffocate in agony.
Some members of the audience began to vomit, others wept, and many more felt a raging fire of fury ignite in their eyes, wishing they could rush up and tear the Quan Xing members to pieces.
"My brother! My brother was killed by this person!" a young man pointed at a suspended Quan Xing member, screaming at the top of his lungs as tears streamed down his face.
Similar voices grew louder as hatred permeated the air.
The Old Taoist Master closed his eyes and sighed in deep sorrow. "It is my failure for letting these villains run rampant for so many years."
Once all the memories had finished playing, Ian raised his hand, signaling for silence.
"The evil deeds have been publicized. Now, it is time for judgment."
The Old Taoist Master said solemnly, "These villains truly deserve to be executed." Golden light began to gather in his hand, ready for the execution.
Ian shook his head. "Death is too cheap for them."
His voice was soft, yet it made Gong Qing and the others tremble violently, their eyes filled with despair.
"I have my own methods to let them experience what true fear and despair look like."
With a wave of his right hand, Yuan Tao was pulled to the front by an invisible force. The sinister and cunning man was now pale as death, his legs shaking uncontrollably.
"No, don't! I can work for you, I'm useful!" Yuan Tao begged desperately, his words jumbled.
Ian ignored him. With a tap in the air, a blue portal opened. Through the portal, the crowd saw a world like a nightmare.
In the endless darkness, countless monsters roared and tore at each other. Mutated creatures crawled upon walls of putrid flesh, and viscous green liquid dripped from the ceiling, corroding smoking holes into anything it touched.
"What place is that?" the Old Taoist Master couldn't help but ask, his tone full of shock and curiosity.
"That is a Hive World on a certain planet. Right now, it is about to face an invasion from the Tyranids, Orks, Chaos, and Necron armies."
He then turned to Yuan Tao and sneered, "You probably don't understand much of that. I'll send him in to demonstrate, then you'll know."
As Ian finished speaking, Yuan Tao was ruthlessly tossed into the portal.
"NO—!!!"
A shrill scream pierced the air before being completely swallowed by the portal.
