Shale's desire to fight grew. His scary punching power was like a storm that was coming for Han Sen.
Han Sen kept firing his pistols. He broke Shale's punching power again and again. No matter how strong Shale's punches were, they couldn't touch Han Sen.
Now, Li Chun Qiu was sure that Shale's Starburst power was equal to Han Sen's. Li Chun Qiu's face looked strange, and he thought to himself, "If this is Han Sen's basic power, then it is scary."
Li Keer and Exquisite were even more shocked. They were sure that this was Han Sen's base power, and he hadn't used a geno art like Star Explosion to strengthen himself.
It was hard to believe that Han Sen's base power was able to fight against Shale's Star Explosion.
In fact, Han Sen thought this was normal. After all, he had used four top-class geno arts to become deified. Each geno art was like a deified. Using four geno arts to strengthen a single body wasn't as simple as one plus one equals two.
Time went by, and Shale was getting stronger and stronger. His body was shining with starlight, but his punching power was being destroyed by Han Sen's bullets. Ten minutes were almost over, and Shale's skin was bleeding. His body looked as if it wouldn't last much longer.
"Han Sen, take this!" Shale roared. He threw a punch at Han Sen.
In the next second, Han Sen saw countless suns appear in the valley. The punches were like exploding stars, and they were all coming for Han Sen.
"Star Explosion's Return to Origin Stream. Even a transmutation deified elite would have to retreat before that," Li Chun Qiu thought to himself.
Shale's performance had exceeded his expectations. Under the effects of Star Explosion, he was able to perfectly control his power and use Return to Origin Stream. Shale's talent and power were top-notch.
Han Sen saw the galaxy of punches coming for him, but he wasn't going to fall back. He put his pistols together and turned them into a rocket launcher.
He held the rocket with both hands and fired a shot at the Milky Way Fist Force. A beam of light condensed into a cannonball and rushed towards the terrifying fist force.
Li Chun Qiu thought to himself, "No matter how strong a cannon is, it cannot fight against Star Explosion's Return to Origin." But in the next second, he froze.
The cannonball rushed into the stream of fists that was like a galaxy and then exploded like a hydrogen bomb. In an instant, all the fists were detonated.
Boom!
The terrifying power seemed to have melted the entire world. In that dazzling starburst, it was so bright that people couldn't open their eyes. They couldn't see anything.
When the light of the explosion faded away, Li Chun Qiu saw Han Sen and Shale hovering in the middle of the valley. But half of the valley had been blown into a giant crater.
Han Sen didn't attack again, and Shale didn't attack again. But everyone knew that Shale had lost. His Starburst was over, and he couldn't fight Han Sen anymore.
"I lost," Shale said calmly.
But Han Sen could see that the man's fighting spirit hadn't been extinguished. He wasn't going to back down just because he had lost.
Li Chun Qiu didn't say anything. Han Sen had won beautifully. Everyone could see that Han Sen still had some power left. He hadn't just barely won.
But Li Chun Qiu was confident that if he was given more time to train Shale, when Shale reached perfection, he would be able to beat Han Sen.
But Li Chun Qiu had to admit that Han Sen was very strong. He was stronger than he had expected. He thought Han Sen was just below Shale and Yu Shan-shin. Now, it looked like Han Sen's fighting power wasn't any weaker than theirs. He might even be stronger.
"Fighting power doesn't mean everything. Becoming a true god is the most important thing. Shale has a pseudo-eleventh-armor talent, so he has a high chance of becoming a true god. That is when we win." Li Chun Qiu looked at Han Sen deeply. Then, he took Shale with him and left.
"You didn't tell us you had become deified. How do you want us to compensate you?" Li Keer smiled as she looked at Han Sen.
"You can compensate me however you want," Han Sen said, spreading his hands.
"I'll punish you by making you face the wall," Li Keer said with a pout.
"I'm not a three-year-old kid anymore. Give me something else," Han Sen said with a wry smile. Facing the wall was something only kids did.
"No, I'll punish you by making you face the wall for a whole month," Li Keer said with a smile.
Han Sen looked helpless. He wanted to say something, but Exquisite said, "Stop messing around. Little Sister is talking about facing the wall. All silkworms must go to the Ancient Wall when they become deified. It will be good for you and us."
"I see." Han Sen now understood. Li Keer wasn't messing around. She was just messing with him.
"But you just became deified. You can go a few days later. Go back and see Bao 'er. You won't be able to come out of the Ancient Wall for a month. You won't have time to see her," Exquisite said.
Han Sen nodded. Exquisite took him back to the Star Tree.
Because they had learned their lesson, Exquisite and Li Keer didn't leave Han Sen's side. Even if they had something to do, they would leave one of them with Han Sen. That made Han Sen very depressed. He didn't have any free time.
"You can't be too good. Otherwise, you won't have any privacy," Han Sen thought to himself as he sipped his tea under the tree.
Although Ling Long could sense what he was thinking, she ignored him and continued to flip through a book.
"What are you reading?" Han Sen asked, moving closer to her.
"Nothing."
Before Han Sen could see what she was reading, Exquisite closed the book and put it in her pocket. Her face looked strange.
"What kind of place is the Ancient Wall?"
Han Sen was curious about what Exquisite was reading, but if she didn't want to tell him, Han Sen didn't ask.
Exquisite sighed and said, "The Ancient Wall is a place that one of my people used to draw."
"Draw?" Han Sen was shocked.
When Exquisite saw Han Sen frozen, she smiled and said, "It wasn't an ordinary drawing. The elder of my race was very talented. He was very famous. Although he wasn't a leader, when it came to the Very High Sense, aside from our alpha, no one could beat him."
After pausing, Exquisite raised her head and looked at the Star Fruit on the tree.
She said, "Before entering the geno hall, that elder sat alone in the Ancient Wall for two years.
When he opened his eyes two years later, the first thing he did was draw a picture on the wall.
After he finished drawing, he flew into space and went to the geno hall.
Since then, only that drawing has been passed down to us.
It has become a mystery.
No one has been able to fully understand the meaning of the drawing."
