Chapter 1013

Author: Shrimp in Trouble Waters
Moonfall Hotel was renowned for its exquisite and high-end offerings. It was the kind of establishment known only to a select few.

Currently, the entire hotel was booked out, with no outsiders allowed entry. The only way in was through an invitation, each one worth a considerable sum on its own.

Inside the hotel, a considerable number of people had already gathered, forming small groups and engaging in casual conversations. A closer look would reveal that none of these individuals were ordinary—each was either a prominent heir or someone of considerable prowess.

At that moment, a figure entered through the door, instantly drawing the attention of everyone present.

"Zach, you've finally arrived," greeted Alan, the heir to the Kayden family. It was hard to believe that the usually arrogant heir of the Kayden family was speaking in such a deferential tone, almost like a servant in Zach Sosa's presence.

"Haha, as the host of this gathering, of course, I'd be here. Don't mind me; just

    Initially, Chase had not paid much attention to the event, but now he has become more vigilant. What kind of gathering would require a powerful marquis of martial arts to guard the entrance? Such individuals were typically honored guests in prestigious families even in Capital City, not some doormen."We're here for the banquet," Chase said calmly.However, the man did not step aside immediately. Instead, he asked, "May I see your invitation card?"Chase sighed and pulled out the invitation card from his pocket. "Can we go in now?" He waved the card in front of the guard.The guard immediately moved aside and even courteously opened the doors to the hall.As Chase and his companions stepped inside, they found the venue moderately sized, yet not crowded.Their entrance did not draw much attention, but Chase's quick scan of the room revealed a couple of familiar faces. However, this was not the right moment for greetings."Hannah, did your mentor mention who you were supposed to

    Byron spoke with a smile. He thought that once Chase realized he was from the Hawkins family, he would start to cozy up to him."Introduce these two, huh? Not so fast. I need to ask you something first. Once I have my answers, then I'll introduce them," Chase said, wearing an enigmatic smile.Byron was puzzled but did not dwell on it too much. He assumed Chase was just trying to get some kind of benefit in return."The Hawkins family was in hiding before, weren't they? So why are you here now?" Chase asked."Rubbish! Who says we were hiding? We were in seclusion, in training! Don't you know the difference?" Byron snapped, his tone suddenly sharper as if someone had struck a nerve.This was clearly a touchy subject; had they not been at a social event, anyone daring to mention this to his face would surely have received a harsh lesson.Byron's outburst quickly drew the attention of those nearby."Alright, seclusion it is then. If that's the case, where exactly is your family doin

    "Zach Sosa, save me!"Byron ignored the situation and his status as he shouted for help.Zach and Douglas, who were watching this fiasco quietly, looked at each other.This annoyed Zach specifically when he heard Byron calling out to him for help.Zach quietly thought, 'This is irritating.'He could imagine how useless Byron was but did not expect it to be that bad.Since the death of Logan, there was no one in the Hamptons' younger generation that stood up.Zach made a move and disappeared in a flash. He reappeared not far from Chase."Chase Collins, he's here because he's my guest. Please let him off."Zach suddenly appeared in front of Chase but he did not make any move. All he did was speak up calmly."Who are you?""You're here attending my banquet but you don't know who I am?""I'm sorry. I really have no idea who you are. Please introduce yourself."Chase spoke up honestly. Nobody told Chase who the organizer of the banquet was, including Skylar and his third sister

    As Douglas got closer, Chase glanced at him dismissively, but a strange feeling began to appear inside him.There seemed to be something about Douglas that was begging his attention.It was strange. He had seen Douglas at Herb Hall before and even got into contact with him at the Salvatores despite there being a wall between them. Yet, he had never felt anything then.However, there was a strange feeling inside him. Could this be…?Chase had a guess about this but he had to confirm it with the miracle doctor, Skylar, when he returned later.He held back that strange feeling and decided to ignore Douglas.However, Douglas would not let this go."Chase Collins, I have to admit that your courage is impressive. You know that you're wanted by the Webers but still decided to return to Capital City. Do you know that every martial artist in Capital City is looking for you?""I'm wanted? What a joke. I'm Bactria's Basalt. Can the Webers put anyone on the wanted list just because you wan

    "Hannah, you should know when to accept goodwill. If it weren't for your master, the miracle doctor, Skylar Lyman, you wouldn't be good enough to be here!"Zach replied furiously from being offended by her."And you, Chase Collins. Even though I have no idea how you managed to get in here, this place has gathered successors of various big families. Now that you're here, you have to follow the rules. Obey my request and let Byron go!"Zach spoke sternly while releasing his energy.The energy of a martial lord filled the place and there was dead silence.However, no one expected Chase to stay calm when facing that energy. He spoke up casually once more."What rules are you talking about? Your rules? Can I take it to mean that you're a bunch of thugs who are on the same boat and are birds of a feather?"Chase swept a glance across the room. Almost everyone stared malevolently at Chase after Zach released his energy."You can say so!"Zach was surprised at Chase's strength. He had

    Byron, who was in Chase's hands, spoke up when he saw how Douglas cared nothing for him and Chase not making a move yet.He had sensed Chase's intent to kill him and even though Chase was not looking at him, Byron still spoke up with fear on his face."Douglas, stop speaking so sarcastically."When Byron called his name, Douglas' eyes narrowed and a murderous look flashed in his eye. However, the look vanished quickly."Don't worry. He won't dare to kill you with so many people here."Zach stopped exerting any energy as if to support Douglas' statement and acted like nothing serious would happen there."Let him go, Chase Collins. If you're trying to show your power, you've already done it. Byron is about to pee from the scare," Alan spoke up as well.Everyone present was convinced that Chase would not kill anyone.Only one person believed otherwise. It was Quinn.As Chase's older sister, Quinn knew better than anyone that Chase would not care where he was if he had already mad

    Zach's and Douglas' energies both burst out at the same time.One of them was a stage-six martial lord while the other was a stage-four martial lord.Chase did not back down. He released his energy as well."Do you think you can do anything to me? What a joke!"A burst of stage-six martial lord energy filled the place.Zach's energy was completely pushed back and Douglas suffered the same fate.As for Alan and the rest, they had no place being involved in such a powerful fight. They stumbled backward because of the energy bursts."Hmph! We might not be able to take you down, but it would be a different story with our elders here!"Zach pushed back against Chase's energy while saying this."Do you really think that we won't have powerhouses in our family just because we rarely appear in public? Uncle Otis, come out here and take down this criminal!" Douglas spoke grimly and the doors opened in the windless banquet hall the moment he said this.Two elderly men stood outside t

    Chase did not reply."What a pity that the Collins' last descendent is about to die in my hands."Edward suddenly burst out with energy and a dark light shot out from his body as it headed straight for Chase."That's the third elder's renowned technique! The Dark Flash! I heard that it's his ultimate move. Even an opponent with the same cultivation level as the third elder would not be able to survive this attack. Chase Collins is only a stage six martial lord. He won't be able to survive this. He's dead."Zach was surprised to see Edward using this move as well."Of all the people Chase Collins had to offend, it had to be you, Zach. Everyone knows your status within the Sosa Clan is incomparable. All the clan elders have acknowledged you as the next patriarch."Douglas buttered up Zach with these words, which worked well with Zach.It all happened in an instant. The Dark Flash shot toward Chase like a sword. He was about to evade the attack when his consciousness informed him o

    The giant ape's massive club swept through the air, creating a terrifying gust that caused the crowns of nearby ancient trees to tremble violently.Meanwhile, Chase executed the techniques of his secret codex with agile movements. His figure flashed like lightning as he dodged the attack with precision.He surged forward without hesitation and delivered a fierce punch directly to the ape's abdomen.This strike was even more powerful than before, twisting the ape's intestines into a mess and splattering blood across the ground.The giant ape howled in anguish, thrashing wildly in an attempt to shake off its pain.Out of the corner of his eye, Chase noticed a crimson serpent coiled nearby. It slithered sinuously, measuring around ten feet long, with a body that released a pungent stench.The snake's cold, piercing gaze was fixed on Chase. It emanated a chilling sense of oppression. Its forked tongue flicked out menacingly as it launched itself at him.Chase's expression hardened.

    The massive ape spread its enormous wings that spanned 25 feet in width, creating a dark shadow that blocked out the sunlight like two great black clouds.The ape let out a deafening bellow, a primal roar that resonated with the ferocity of an ancient beast.In an instant, the surrounding area—nearly 300 feet in radius—was swept by fierce winds. Sand whirled through the air, grass was uprooted, and trees swayed violently as their branches rattled and leaves scattered.The air was heavy with a menacing energy."A monster!" Chase muttered, narrowing his eyes as he took a defensive stance.The aura emanating from this creature was suffocating, its strength comparable to that of a martial god at its peak."Perfect! Let this serve as a lesson to all those fools that I'm not someone to be trifled with!"Chase launched himself forward without hesitation, closing the distance with the towering beast.His fist collided with the air, creating a sharp sonic boom that reverberated through

    A sharp blade appeared in Chase's hand.This was a spiritual artifact named Azure Edge, forged by a renowned swordsmith after considerable expense and effort.A flash of cold light swept across, instantly felling over a dozen ghostly creatures.They stood no chance against Chase's strikes. Their throats were slit, and their heads separated cleanly from their bodies.A crimson crystal dropped into Chase's palm.It appeared unremarkable at first glance, but it contained a thick, viscous vitality and was more potent than ordinary blood. A faint spiritual essence seemed to pulse within it, emanating an almost sentient energy."Is this a ghost crystal?" Chase's eyes lit up with excitement.He immediately sat down cross-legged, focusing on restoring his depleted vitality.Within his core, his Sea of True Energy roiled and churned. Vitality surged as waves of energy coursed through his bloodstream, refining his muscles and bones."This ghost crystal is incredible. It's allowing my bo

    Chase's pupils contracted as he sensed the impending danger.He unleashed a barrage of punches in an instant, executing the most powerful technique from the Dominion Codex.The void trembled and cracked as Chase staggered back several steps. Despite the force of his strikes, his attack barely grazed the massive beast's claws, leaving only minor scratches.The beast howled furiously, its eyes filled with unrestrained violence.Chase fixed his gaze on it, and he asked in a wary tone, "Who… or what are you?"The creature's aura was pure savagery. Its heavy, steel-like scales were nearly impenetrable. Chase's full-strength attacks barely left a mark, let alone inflicted critical damage.The beast let out a deafening roar and leaped forward, spewing a foul, dark liquid at Chase.Where the liquid hit the ground, it immediately began to corrode, releasing an acrid stench. The substance seeped into the soil like acid, causing nearby plants to wither and die almost instantly.Chase reac

    "Damn it! What kind of mysterious medicine is this? The pain is unbearable!"Moments later, Chase calmed down, and his expression was dazed as he muttered to himself, "That scene… Could it have been an illusion?"Chase refused to believe it was merely an illusion. After all, if it were, how could he have seen that towering, majestic mountain?That night, Chase stayed in the cave instead of leaving. He continued to study the Dominion Codex, determined to master the technique as quickly as possible and ascend to a higher realm.…Meanwhile, a man clad in armor stood suspended in the air in another location.The man's posture was upright, his features sharp and striking, with eyes as deep and vast as the cosmos. He exuded an overwhelming aura of sharpness and power."So, it was an illusion?"The man frowned slightly, sensing a faint aura belonging to the Ghost King bloodline emanating from Chase. This discovery puzzled him."Something feels off," he murmured. "This human's bloodl

    Chase stared in shock at the withered, lifeless corpse before him."So, this is the so-called secret?" Chase let out a bitter laugh and shook his head. "I thought I had stumbled upon a hidden relic, but it turns out to be nothing more than a trap."The eerie figure had used him as a mere sacrifice, intending to refine his body to restore his own strength and cultivation.The only secret Chase had uncovered was the entrance to the hidden realm, and he suspected it contained unimaginable treasures. Yet he realized the reason he could not enter alive was simple—he was not strong enough."If I've already been discovered, I might as well turn the tables!"His thoughts sharpened, and a ruthless gleam appeared in his eyes. Chase hurled a barrage of punches without hesitation.His iron fists rained down like a storm, striking the eerie figure with deafening impacts.The figure was caught completely off guard, stunned by the ferocity of Chase's counter-attack."Ahhh! You damn insect, st

    With a flick of his trembling fingers, Chase unleashed a flash of silver sword energy from his fingertips, targeting the figure's forehead.The eerie figure was slightly surprised, clearly not expecting Chase to launch an attack. However, he simply raised his hand and flicked a finger.The silver sword energy shattered instantly, and Chase staggered back several steps, his chest heaving with labored breaths."As I thought... My cultivation is too weak. Even using the second stance of my sword technique can't harm this old monster in the slightest. If I want to win, I'll have to use that final move…" Chase's mind raced as his gaze flickered with determination.At that moment, the eerie figure opened his eyes again, revealing a mocking grin."Your physique is peculiar," he remarked."Hahaha! Don't worry. Once you become my servant, all these divine abilities and techniques, even the secrets of the True Martial Principles, will belong to you!"As the figure finished speaking, a s

    Chase quickly calmed his mind, and a broad smile spread across his face. The figure before him was undoubtedly the most powerful ally he had ever encountered.If he could earn this person's approval, he would gain access to an array of techniques—martial arts, supernatural skills, combat techniques, and even secrets for refining the body.This opportunity was far more significant than just obtaining the Seven-Star Herb and mastering a Supreme Technique."Boy, come here and bow before me!"Suddenly, the eerie figure sitting cross-legged spoke with a cold and commanding voice."Bow?" Chase froze for a moment. Was this guy out of his mind?"That's right! Your ability to make it this far proves you've passed the trial. As a reward, I will grant you an opportunity," the eerie figure said, his tone laced with icy indifference."From now on, you'll serve as my subordinate, guarding my tomb for a hundred years. Once the century is up, I'll set you free."Hearing this, Chase immediately

    The blood mist gradually dissipated, revealing Chase's figure.Chase was slightly startled. He noticed that his skin was now covered in a faint golden layer of scales, resembling a suit of golden armor.These golden scales were not just protective layers; they felt more like a natural armor embedded into his body.He raised his hand and touched them. They were as hard as iron, with a faint metallic gleam shimmering under the light.Standing still, Chase let the wind blow past him. His clothes fluttered wildly.In the next moment, Chase stretched out his arms, exuding a terrifying destructive power as though a dragon had emerged from the sea.He slammed into the rock wall with full force, causing the stone surface to shatter and crack apart."This… This is the Supreme Technique!"Chase stood dumbfounded, finding it hard to believe. "I… I actually cultivated the Supreme Technique? The legendary Supreme Technique!"The Supreme Technique was the pinnacle of martial arts, an incred
