Chapter 242: Chapter 242 - Divine Sense
Blaine Pitts was an immovable mass, his punches even more relentless!
The fierce gust of wind from his punch felt like a biting blade cutting into your skin!
Facing such a powerful attack, I didn’t dodge or hide, but instead, raised my hand and met it head-on!
A thunderous "clang" resounded!
After our fists collided, an astonishing scene unfolded!
My body was sent flying away like a kite with a broken string!
Blood spurted from my mouth! I seemed incredibly weak in an instant!
"Mr. Raymond!" cried Conrad Schroeder, quickly running over to me.
Supporting me, he asked anxiously, "Mr. Raymond, are you okay?"
There wasn’t a trace of panic on my face, I only had a subtle smile.
"Is this the King of Chuzzle? Truly laughable!" sneered Blaine Pitts.
Lainey Kessler shook his head, too.
It seemed the so-called experts of the Chuzzle area weren’t all that great.
The King of Chuzzle couldn’t even withstand a common punch from Blaine Pitts!
Too weak, far too weak!
The surrounding crowd was also taken aback by the scene.
They never imagined I would be so thoroughly defeated!
"Master, this Mason Raymond is just a good-for-nothing, he can’t even stand a punch from Blaine Pitts." Not far away, Wallace Wills’s disciple laughed derisively.
Wallace Wills nodded slightly and said, "Well, in the current era, the status of martial artists is not high. In front of capital, they are nothing."
The power of capital far surpasses that of any so-called martial artist.
Besides Wallace Wills, Stanley Sonia and Ashley Buchanan also witnessed the scene.
"Huh, so this is the ’different’ master Schroeder was talking about?" Ashley Buchanan snickered mockingly.
"With such a weakling, I could crush him with just one finger!"
Facing the sighs of the crowd, I remained silent.
I wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth, and the smile on my face seemed more intense.
With my current strength, Blaine Pitts’ punch was nothing!
The reason I was sent flying was entirely my own doing.
I had many enemies in hiding. There were countless people who wanted to bring me down.
If I revealed my strength too early, I might become a target.
"Mr. Raymond, are you okay?" Conrad Schroeder asked anxiously.
I glanced at him and said with a smile, "I’m fine."
Just then, Zendaya Andrew walked over gracefully.
Her voice was smooth and pleasant, she asked me softly, "Mr. Raymond, are you okay?"
I politely replied, "Miss Andrew, I’m fine. Just a little weak from the injury."
Zendaya Andrew chuckled behind her hand. Suddenly, she raised her hand and placed it on my chest.
A gentle strength started flowing into my body.
However, feeling this warmth, my expression drastically changed!
I was very familiar with this sensation!
The energy Zendaya Andrew was releasing was exactly the qi that I relied on!
"So it seems I’m not the only immortal cultivator in the world," I said, squinting my eyes.
"Of course," Zendaya Andrew answered with a smile.
Again, my face changed!
This Zendaya Andrew... can she actually read my thoughts? How is she able to do that?
"You don’t have to worry, Mr. Raymond. This is divine sense. To put it in mundane terms, it is mental power," Zendaya Andrew explained.
This made me somewhat uneasy.
If that was the case, Zendaya Andrew could easily see through me!
"Thank you, Miss Andrew, for healing me. I’m okay now." Thinking of this, I tried to distance myself from Zendaya Andrew.
But things didn’t go as expected, Zendaya Andrew not only didn’t leave, she chuckled and said, "Mr. Raymond, why don’t we forge ahead together, how about it?"
Travel together?
My face gradually darkened.
I cast a cold glance at Zendaya, a hint of vigilance flashing in my eyes.
"Mr. Raymond doesn’t need to worry." Zendaya said with a faint smile.
"I just feel that Mr. Raymond is not as simple as he appears." Zendaya added lightly.
My brow furrowed slightly.
After contemplating for a moment, I said, "Just do as you please."
Since Zendaya had already decided that I was extraordinary, there would be no use arguing with her.
Zendaya chuckled and refrained from saying more.
From deep within the mountains, huge roars echoed occasionally.
This was a sign that the Divine Medicine was about to show up.
"According to rumors, when the Divine Medicine emerges, it causes the occurrence of the vision, and even isolates itself from the surrounding world. I wonder if it’s true or not." Conrad Schroeder stated seriously on the side.
Zendaya nodded slightly, "That’s right. The Divine Medicine, after soaking up the sun and moon for a thousand years, develops a divine sense. During its emergence, it tries to protect itself."
"Is it really that formidable?" I asked, somewhat taken by surprise.
Zendaya glanced at me, "Haven’t you heard the old tales when you were little, Mr. Raymond? The wild pan ax ginseng on the mountain can escape on its own."
"Indeed, there is such a legend, but no one has actually seen it." Conrad Schroeder added.
I scratched my head, admittedly ignorant about this.
I was an orphan since childhood, where could I have heard such tales?
"At that time, Mr. Raymond needs to find a way to secure himself. According to my observation, there are quite a few people here who want to kill you." Zendaya suddenly warned.
"Quite a few?" I frowned slightly.
I scanned my surroundings, it seemed that I didn’t have many enemies, just a few.
"Once a person stands on higher ground, it’s easier to attract hatred, especially since you were just blown away by Blaine Pitts. Naturally, some people would want to step on you to climb up." Zendaya explained.
I seemed to understand.
So that’s how it was.
But I wasn’t worried, on the contrary, I was somewhat looking forward to it.
Once they enter this isolated area, it would be uncertain who would kill whom.
Time flew, getting closer to when the Divine Medicine would emerge.
And among the heaven and earth, there was an increasing frequency of the roars.
Many people were gazing at the entrance of the deep mountain, getting ready to go in.
I was no exception, I took a step forward and stood near the deep mountain.
"Mason Raymond, you really dare to come." Ashley Buchanan sneered.
I responded lightly, "Why wouldn’t I dare to come?"
Ashley Buchanan squinted, "You’re one of the boldest people I’ve ever seen. I’m telling you straight, the moment you step into this jungle, I will personally kill you."
"We’ll see if you’ve got that kind of ability." I spoke calmly.
Ashley Buchanan laughed heartily, "Such audacity, coming from a mere Inner Strength Master! Killing you would be as easy as stepping on an ant!"
"Is that so? Well, I’ll be watching closely." I retorted with a cold smile.
While talking, I scanned my surroundings.
As expected, I spotted numerous pairs of eyes in the shadows, watching me eagerly.
"I’ll kill you all soon." I thought to myself coldly.
Just when everyone was tensed, out of the blue, the air overhead blared with roaring sounds!
This roar immediately drew countless gazes!
A helicopter steadily landed in front of everyone!
The propeller’s powerful force caused gusty winds.
The gusty wind kicked up dust and partially obstructed my view.
Compared to this helicopter, all the luxurious cars at the scene seemed rather dull.
