Crimson hues painted the sky as Iris Darren marked out an enormous territory.


    This region held the densest poption of martial artists.


    He''d spent multiple days setting up formations throughout the zone.


    These formations were elite methods from the Immortal ying Sect. They could drain people''s divine sense!


    Years ago, the Immortal ying Sect had used such methods to thrive and rise as the world''s top sect!


    Now, Iris Darren intended to employ this ancient method once more to steal people''s divine senses for himself!


    A massive empty fieldy near the Capital City Martial Arts Association.


    This field, known as the Martial Arts Hall, had once served as a battleground for martial artists worldwide to sh.


    Following Ms. Zackary''s passing, it sat deserted with no one using it for ages.


    Today, Iris Darren positioned himself by the Martial Arts Hall, nning to resurrect this ce.


    He looked at Garcia Coleman standing nearby and spoke coolly, "I need you to send out an announcement calling all world martial artists to gather here."


    Garcia''s brows creased slightly, and he asked icily, "You''re giving me orders?"


    Iris Darren''s eyes glowed with dark red light!


    He brutally seized Garcia''s neck and hoisted him skyward.


    "You can see it that way," Iris Darren stated coldly.


    The two Martial Saints nking Garcia rushed forward to strike.


    But then, two white bones cut off their path!


    "If you value your lives, back off," Iris Darren said frigidly.


    Both Martial Saints'' faces shifted instantly, and they couldn''t help stepping back.


    Iris Darren then dropped Garcia and said with his hands behind his back, "Go, follow my orders."


    Garcia clenched his teeth. Iris Darren''s behavior had be more brazen, and Garcia could no longer match him as an equal.


    This brought Star''s warning flooding back to Garcia.


    "May I ask what you''re scheming?" Garcia questioned with grave concern.


    Iris Darren replied coolly, "Youck the standing to know."


    Garcia''s eyes narrowed sharply!


    Though he felt rage building, he controlled himself, remembering the white bones nking Iris Darren.


    Garcia then spun around and departed, reluctantly sending the invitation Iris Darren demanded.


    Once the invitation spread, countless martial artists caught wind of it.


    The event was set for three days out. While the announcement didn''t reveal the goal, Garcia made sure to stress how crucial this meeting was.


    Many martial artists, hearing this, chose to join.


    Sitting in a hotel, I naturally spotted this news.


    "A meeting at the Martial Arts Hall? Global martial artists?" My brows knitted slightly.


    I rubbed my chin and mumbled, "What''s Garcia Coleman cooking up now?"


    Watching the chatter on the Martial Arts Forum, my brows drew tighter.


    My gut warned me this event might not be straightforward.


    "To stay safe, I''d better tame the abyss creature within these three days," I thought.


    During this period, my divine sense had surged rapidly, and I now possessed the ability to speak with the creature.


    So, wasting no time, I stepped into the Spatial Magic Artifact and headed straight for the abyss bottom.


    That strand of light stayed still, showing zero response to my appearance.


    I yed with the spiritual stone in my palm and hurled it at the light strand.


    The instant the spiritual stone touched it, it disappearedpletely.


    Seeing this speed left even me stunned.


    "Let''s cut a deal," I said with a smile, standing beside the light.


    "Buzz off! I won''t buy your lies!" the light snapped immediately.


    I chuckled awkwardly, "Why so hasty? I haven''t even spoken yet."


    "Screw off! Think I''ll get tricked again?" the voice shot back furiously.


    I stroked my chin and said, "This time I mean it. I''ve got a bad vibe, and I might need your help."


    "Not my problem," the light brushed off the idea instantly.


    I rolled my eyes and said, "How about this? I''ll hand over a thousand spiritual stones and ept your terms. Sound good?"


    Hearing this, the light finally stirred.


    "You''re not lying?" it asked in a low voice.


    I nodded and said, "But I''ve got one requirement."


    With that, I stretched out my hand and formed a halo in my palm.


    This halo came from a thread of my divine sense, using the inherited methods my father left to craft a divine sense binding technique.


    "This is the silver hoop charm. If you''ll wear it, I''ll consider your proposal," I said.


    "Silver hoop charm?" The light grew annoyed right away.


    "You don''t trust me?"


    I grinned and said, "Trust you? I''d have to be crazy."


    "I don''t want that thing on me," the lightined.


    Though it said this, the light was actually thrilled inside!


    Silver hoop charm? What garbage is that? How could such junk hold me back?


    Once I break free from this abyss and get inside your body, I can shred that charm with one swipe!


    Then, I won''t just consume your divine sense but take over your body too!


    I had no clue about the light''s scheming and coaxed, "At least let me protect myself. What if your crappy divine sense hurts me once it''s in my body?"


    The light acted reluctant and said, "Fine, for my freedom, I''ll do it."


    "That''s better," I muttered.


    I grabbed the silver hoop charm and approached the light strand.


    Soon, I secured the charm onto the light''s divine sense.


    The moment the charm locked on, it released a series of weird light shes.


    These shes came and went quickly, vanishing into the light.


    "This is the silver hoop charm? And it''s meant to hold me?" The light couldn''t help sneering inside.


    "As soon as you free me from the abyss, I swear I''ll devour you until nothing remains!"


    Though it thought this, the light just scoffed, "So irritating to finally get a shot at escaping the abyss, only to wear some silver hoop charm!"
