The gentle breeze filled with slight moisture blew in the surroundings.

Atop the giant trees that seemed to pierce the heavens stood David and Sebastian with casual expressions on their faces.

Some distance away from them stood Lucas with a solemn expression on his face.

"Manager, let's begin," Sebastian, the man of few words, spoke, his voice calm as he once again assessed the young man in front of him.

At the Golden Core Realm, Sebastian could finally begin to show his abilities to their fullest potential.

David also wasn't one who liked to speak too much; at Sebastian's words, he only nodded and got into a battle stance.

Immediately, an invisible pressure with David as the center enveloped the surroundings. The air suddenly seemed to have frozen in place.

A hint of solemnity flashed across Sebastian as the unrestrained pressure released by David hit his body like a raging tide.

However, in the next moment, a slightly crazed look appeared in his eyes; Sebastian seemed to have gone back to the days when he was young and unrestrained.

"I won't go easy this time, manager..."

David's eyes suddenly narrowed. Before he could think about anything, Sebastian had appeared in front of him like a ghost from the Nether Abyss, his body glowing in golden light, making him look like a divine god that had descended from Heaven.

"Darkheaven Transformation."

"Atomic change."

Sebastian muttered in his head and threw a punch aimed at David's head, directly going for his vital point.

His hand suddenly seemed to flash with a metallic sheen, and in the next moment, Sebastian's hand from fingertips to his elbows transformed, his hand made of flesh and blood changed to dark black iron filled with tremendous power.

David immediately reacted and threw a punch of his own.

Bang!

A strong wave filled with tremendous energy was released in every direction, causing the tree below their figures to flutter. Get new updates on m-vl_em|p_yr

David felt as if his punch had landed on an iron plate, and immediately a searing sensation was sent to his brain; some of his finger bones seemed to have been broken. S~eaʀᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

But to someone like David, it was only a minor injury not worth thinking about.

Surprise flashed across Sebastian, not expecting David to remain standing.

After all, at this time, his fist was made of Divine Iron harder than diamonds found on Earth.

"Tch! Only if my body was strong enough…" Sebastian clicked his tongue in annoyance and thought.

If his body was strong enough, he could have transformed his entire being to be made out of Divine Iron; at that point, it wouldn't have been easy for David to take his attack head-on.

Lucas, at this time, had already backed away considerably; the pressure released by both of them had made his heart palpitate in fear.

He felt as if someone had suddenly placed a huge mountain on his shoulders.

"Are these people cultivating Mid-grade law?" Lucas thought in his head as the power released by the two of them was too much.

"Where did the two of them go?" Lucas suddenly shouted as in the next moment that he blinked his eyes, the figures of David and Sebastian disappeared.

Lucas' eyes failed to keep up with their speeds.

David and Sebastian exchanged tens of blows in a matter of minutes; each time their fists clashed, a powerful shockwave was released in every direction.

"Thousand Faces of Heavenly Demon." Suddenly a calm voice reached David's ears.

He seemed to have heard those words many times in the past.

Immediately, a smile appeared on David's face.

Without him even trying, his original second Crystallization was automatically activated, following which a symbol of Triquetra appeared on his pupils.

In the next moment, his mind was filled with insights about the technique that Sebastian cultivated all his life.

David suddenly wanted to laugh like a madman. 'Oh! Poor Sebastian, why did you use technique in the end?'

A moment ago, all of Sebastian's attacks were without following any techniques; he just casually threw random punches in the air.

Before the fight had begun, Sebastian thought he would be able to defeat David without using any techniques, depending solely on his Crystallization of Life's second ability, the Atomic Change.

Before the thousand hands behind Sebastian could even materialize properly, tens of thousands of hands appeared behind David, ready to strike down Sebastian.

Witnessing this from afar, Lucas' jaw almost hit the ground.

The scene before his eyes was something that he couldn't even comprehend.

He had a feeling if any of those hands landed on his body, he would die without a shadow of doubt.

"Who is he?" Such a thought automatically popped up in Lucas' head.

At this moment, the hands behind Sebastian that had yet to materialize suddenly disappeared, and a frustrated expression appeared on his face.

"Let's end it here, Manager," Sebastian spoke those words with a sigh.

He was already defeated when he decided to use his technique.

At this moment, Sebastian also realized that he might never be able to defeat David again.

At Sebastian's words, David shook his head and didn't say anything.

No one really knows what the future holds for them, so there was no point thinking about such things.

David moved forward and patted Sebastian's shoulders with a smile on his face. "Don't think too much, my situation is special."

He could only say those words as when it came to encouragement, he wasn't the brightest tool in the shed.

After hearing his words, Sebastian smiled strangely and looked at David with a weird gaze. 'Who does this young man think I am?'

In his tens of thousands of years of long life, what he had not seen, such a small thing could not even leave a small dent in his heart.

While the two were talking, Lucas also managed to gather his courage and walked near the duo with a slightly awkward look on his face.

He didn't understand why the two of them suddenly stopped fighting.

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent with no one saying anything.

Lucas decided to ask a random question to break the ice.

"The two of you must be ranked in the top one hundred thousand in the rankings," he loudly exclaimed.

Of course, he didn't even need to explain which ranking he was talking about.

Just as David was about to turn around and say something, he stopped and looked towards the sky.

Two streaks of light, one green and the other yellow, flashed in the air and were moving towards his direction at fast speed.

Immediately in the next moment, two men, one young and the other slightly old, appeared in front of David's group.

The two newly arrived men had bald heads that seemed to shine brightly under the sun and were dressed in rugged black robes.

David frowned; with a single glance, he recognized the other party.

"Bald Monk wine shop! What are they doing here?" he couldn't stop himself from questioning in his head.

Beside him, Sebastian was also frowning, especially since he could not tell the exact cultivation base of those standing in front of him.

That could only mean two things: either the newly arrived were stronger than him or had cultivation techniques that could perfectly hide their aura.

While thinking, Sebastian's gaze landed on David's face to see his reaction, but David's face remained the same as before if he hadn't seen the two newly arrived cultivators.

The two people didn't seem to care about David and the others' opinions.

At this time, the Old Monk pointed his finger at David as if he was pointing at some animal from a zoo and muttered something directly inside the head of the young monk beside him without opening his mouth.

"This is the young man from the reports."

The old monk was using his divine sense to communicate.

After hearing this, the Young Monk smiled and looked at David's figure with interest, but he still didn't open his mouth.

The old monk looked at David once again and said, "Customer, help us by answering a few of our questions."

Hearing those words, David understood why these two guys were here.

"Sure, speak up!" David spoke in a casual tone, his words were spoken evenly, neither in an arrogant nor humble voice.

After hearing those words, the Old Monk slightly furrowed his brows, and a displeased expression appeared on his face.

He wasn't expecting a little Golden Core Realm cultivator to speak this way.

Although displeased, the Old Monk still decided to ask the questions that he needed to ask.

"From where did you purchase the Coffee cup form?"

The loud and clear words of the Bald Old Monk resounded in the surroundings.

At his question, David smiled and looked at the man closely and said, "What if I don't answer the question?" The smile on David's face became a little playful as he said those words.

"Hahaha, young friend, you don't have a choice in this matter. You will have to answer all the questions whether you like it or not."
