I Attained Invincibility In The Real World

Chapter 171 - 171: 156: The Old Man’s Conflict with the Rain Curtain

Zhao Zhenfeng knelt down in front of the tent and bowed his head.

“You

An old and weak voice, piercing through the heavy veil of rain, accurately reached Zhao Zhenfeng’s ears.

Zhao Zhenfeng slightly raised his eyebrows.

The scene inside the tent came into view.

In the small tent, a hunched and emaciated figure sat cross-legged.

The dry and thin body, with sagging skin, revealed the outline of bones.

Scars crisscrossed his body, a testament to numerous old wounds now healed.

Wrapping his face were wrinkles and scars, only his eyes were clear and full of will.

As Zhao Zhenfeng raised his eyes, they met those of the old man.

In that moment.

Zhao Zhenfeng was a bit lost.

What kind of eyes were these?

Hidden within them seemed to be a brilliant galaxy, the passage of time, composing the universe.

Sometimes as clear as a child, sometimes as unyielding as a young man, sometimes as worldly-wise as an elder.

For a moment.

Zhao Zhenfeng opened his mouth, forgetting to answer.

“Ah, I have grown old and sometimes forget names.”

It wasn’t until the old man’s pondering voice reached his ears that Zhao Zhenfeng snapped back to reality.

“The younger generation, Zhao Zhenfeng.”

“A direct disciple of Sect Master Xiang Li of the Power Sect.”

He quickly bowed his head, stating his own identity, not daring to look directly at the old man.

“Xiang Li…” “I remember, I remember.” “Nice kid.”

The old man mumbled.

As his voice fell.

Zhao Zhenfeng felt his body suddenly become heavy.

An invisible pressure descended from above, making him feel short of breath.

Zhao Zhenfeng knew.

It was the old man, looking at him. “In that case, you may go.” “But hurry.”

“I can’t stay here much longer.”

With that said.

Zhao Zhenfeng felt the pressure on his body suddenly ease.

He let out a sigh of relief.

Raising his gaze.

In the tent,

There was no one.

Zhao Zhenfeng wasn’t the first to see him in person.

He had experienced this sort of encounter a few times and didn’t show any embarrassment.

The old man had no name or title.

Who he actually was, Zhao Zhenfeng didn’t know.

Zhao Zhenfeng only knew that his master called him Respected Elder.

So he addressed him in the same way.

Whenever there was a leakage from the Sealed Land, the old man’s figure would appear, waiting for the Martial Arts Association to finish exploring before entering and repairing the broken seal.

Besides that,

Information about the old man was top secret within the Wu’an Bureau and the Martial Arts Association.

Zhao Zhenfeng had tried asking his master but hadn’t gotten an answer.

Not only that,

Xiang Li even sternly warned him not to attempt to find out information about the old man.

He only needed to show him respect, and that would be enough.

With that thought,

Even though the tent was empty, Zhao Zhenfeng didn’t get up immediately.

“The younger generation takes their leave.”

He bowed his head again and quietly waited for several seconds.

Only after confirming that there was no sound did he slowly stand up.

Once he stood up,

He looked around.

The Linjiang Province search squad was nowhere to be seen.

One minute before, Zhao Zhenfeng had clearly sensed their presence around the lake.

But their aura had appeared briefly before quickly fading away.

Zhao Zhenfeng had a suspicion.

He turned his head to look into the distance.

His gaze broke through the heavy rain, and he searched around the lake.

Around every direction, Wu’an Bureau defense teams were patrolling.

To avoid being lured away, even if someone tried to approach the Sealed Land from other directions, these teams wouldn’t leave their positions without orders.

However, when a team encountered an enemy and their initial attack proved ineffective, they would promptly request support.

This time, the exploration of the Sealed Land,

Fuhai Province and Linjiang Province dispatched five teams of martial artists in total, about thirty people.

Their duty was to rush to support the moment they received a request from the Wu’an Bureau’s defense teams.

Now that Wang He’s figure was nowhere to be seen.

Perhaps… some trash couldn’t hold back any longer.

A cold flash flickered in Zhao Zhenfeng’s eyes.

The legacy of the breathing method in the Sealed Land, as well as the Spirit Seed and Qi Jie Stone,

For martial artists nowadays, these were precious resources.

Therefore,

The protection and exploration of the Sealed Land always took precedence in every situation.

Once leaked and obtained by outlaws, it would only make China’s environment increasingly unstable.

Although it was dirty work,

Power Sect itself was not without blame.

Thankless tasks were one thing if done by themselves,

But it wouldn’t be acceptable if others were involved as well.

With this final thought,

Zhao Zhenfeng’s ears twitched slightly.

The distant gunfire shattered the heavy veil of rain and entered his ears.

Therefore,

His figure vanished in an instant.

Lake.

In the woods to the northwest.

Amidst the sound of falling rain, the consecutive gunshots seemed particularly abrupt.

“Wang He?” “I’ve heard of you, you’re pretty good.”

In the rain curtain.

Wang He, unable to evade the enemy’s fierce attack in time, had no choice but to raise his hand to block.

Bang!

Black threads cut through the rain curtain, hitting Wang He’s forearm heavily.

The airwave exploded in the air, instantly dispersing the raindrops around it, and forming a vacuum zone several meters in radius.

Crack!

Wang He’s pupils shrank.

He clearly heard a crisp sound coming from his arm.

An enormous force swept through his body from his forearm.

In an instant, Wang He felt as if he’d lost control of his body, and was being carried away by the tremendous force towards the back.

Not good!

Can’t retreat!

Out of the corner of Wang He’s eye, he saw armed personnel not far away shooting at the enemy with rifles.

Once his side was breached, the situation of these armed personnel would become extremely dangerous if the enemy broke through and approached them.

At the critical moment.

Wang He gritted his teeth.

He saw his waist and abdomen twist, generating strength.

Bang!

His legs, like wooden piles, deeply plunged into the ground.

Only then did he barely manage to control his body from retreating backward.

However, even so.

Bearing the tremendous force that swept through his body, Wang He felt as if his internal organs were trembling. He opened his mouth and vomited blood.

“Oh?”

“Very good.”

The enemy in front of him softly praised.

But there was no joy in Wang He’s heart.

His face was solemn as he stared at the enemy.

This man was dressed in black and wore a goat mask on his face.

The two curved horns, along with the horizontal pupils underneath the mask, made one shudder just by gazing directly at him.

“Who are you?”

Wang He stared intently at the goat-faced man and asked in a deep voice.

At the same time.

He silently adjusted his body’s breathing rhythm.

Thump, thump, thump.

His clear and powerful heartbeat came from within his body.

His body continuously produced crisp crackling sounds like frying beans.

His figure visibly grew taller at a rapid speed.

“Sorry.”

“I’m short on time, I’ll introduce myself next time.”

Unfortunately,

It seemed that the enemy had no intention of entangling with Wang He for too long.

Whoosh!

Wang He felt the scene before his eyes flicker, and the goat-faced man appeared directly in front of him.

His playful, horizontal pupils stared at Wang He, making him shiver in his heart.

Bang!

The ground beneath the goat-faced man’s feet cracked inch by inch.

His arms became a black line in the air, instantly striking towards Wang He’s chest.

So fast!

Wang He felt like his scalp was about to explode.

The enemy was so fast that he didn’t even have time to counterattack.

In this critical moment,

Wang He could only brace himself to block it.

However,

This time,

The goat-faced man’s attack was far more powerful than Wang He had imagined.

Boom!

The fist forcefully imprinted on Wang He’s arm.

A ring of airwaves, with the two as the center, instantly exploded.

Under the pouring force, the ground within a few meters of the duo collapsed instantly.

The next second.

Wang He completely lost control over his body.

His vision rose rapidly.

His body was shot towards the back like an arrow off the string.

Bang!

After flying dozens of meters, his body finally smashed into the ground, pounding the ground into a pit.

wall!

Wang He’s eyes widened, and he vomited blood from his mouth again.

The bones of his body were emitting distressed moans.

“Move faster.”

The voice of the goat-faced man came again.

Wang He looked up.

The injuries on his body made his vision somewhat blurry.

The rain curtain obstructed him, making him unable to see the surrounding situation clearly.

However, he could vaguely see several shadows rapidly closing in on his teammates and the Wu’an Bureau’s armed personnel.

“Damn it!”

Wang He’s face turned anxious.

He quickly propped up his arms and tried to lift his body.

But the force of the goat-faced man’s punch just now was too heavy; Wang He staggered and barely managed to stand up.

He looked towards the battlefield.

What he saw in front of him made his eyes want to burst.

In just two or three seconds,

With the support of the goat-faced man, all of his teammates were already lying on the ground, their lives unknown.

And those men in black were now rushing towards the armed personnel of the

Wu’an Bureau..
