The old man laughed wildly, his laughter echoing throughout the palace, seemingly mocking Qin Ze's ignorance and arrogance. He looked at Qin Ze and said sarcastically, "Have you felt my power? You ant!" His voice was full of mockery and contempt; he seemed extremely confident in his own strength.
Then, the old man attacked again, this time with even greater ferocity. His fist transformed into a flame, carrying a scorching aura as it fiercely attacked Qin Ze. But Qin Ze remained calm, his body as agile as a snake, easily dodging the old man's attacks.
The old man's fist struck a pillar of the palace, causing a powerful explosion that shattered the surrounding pillars into pieces, leaving the palace interior in ruins.
However, even when the old man attacked again, his attacks still couldn't reach Qin Ze. Qin Ze easily dodged each of the old man's attacks, his body moving like a fish through the palace, avoiding the old man's fists and flames.
The old man's attacks grew increasingly fierce, flames swirling around his fists, forming a dazzling light, yet he still couldn't touch Qin Ze. Qin Ze maintained a calm smile, seemingly unconcerned about the old man's attacks.
The soldiers watched in stunned silence, amazed by Qin Ze's agility and reaction speed, while also feeling worried for the old man. Although the old man was powerful, he couldn't land a hit on Qin Ze, which made them anxious.
The old man's anger continued to rise. He felt his authority had been challenged, and he was determined to defeat Qin Ze completely and prove his strength. He began to launch an even more ferocious attack, flames flying everywhere, and the temperature inside the palace rose sharply.
The old man's attack came to an abrupt halt with a single finger from Qin Ze. His fist seemed to be bound by an invisible force, unable to advance even an inch further. The old man's eyes widened as he stared at Qin Ze in disbelief, fine beads of sweat forming on his forehead.
Qin Ze maintained a calm smile, his eyes revealing an undeniable confidence. He knew he had seized the initiative.
The soldiers inside the palace were also dumbfounded, unable to comprehend what was happening before their eyes. The old man had always been revered as the strongest in the empire, yet now he had surrendered without resistance to a young man from another world.
Qin Ze said calmly, "It's over..."
Qin Ze lightly tapped his finger, and a bright light quickly condensed, streaking across the palace like a shooting star and swiftly enveloping the old man.
The old man felt an immense pressure from the light; his body began to tremble, and his eyes filled with despair and fear. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not break free from the force's hold.
The light gradually expanded, completely enveloping the old man. Then, a faint cracking sound rang out, and tiny cracks began to appear on the old man's body, as if ceramic had been shattered.
The soldiers witnessed this scene and felt a chill run down their spines. They couldn't understand what had happened; all they knew was that the old man had turned into a handful of fine dust in front of Qin Ze.
Qin Ze stood before the ruins of the palace, quietly sensing the aura of this other world. The soldiers around him, those once confident experts, now trembled with fear, not daring to approach him.
This world certainly has many experts, and beings at the terrestrial immortal level are not uncommon here, but to Qin Ze, these people are nothing more than ants. His cultivation and power far exceed the limits of this world, and the rules and laws here are child's play to him.
Qin Ze shook his head, then took to the air and flew towards the void passage.
Within the void passage, Qin Ze's figure gradually disappeared, returning to Kunlun Mountain. This time, Kunlun Mountain was bustling with activity, many people gathered together, eagerly anticipating something. And when they saw Qin Ze reappear on Kunlun Mountain, their cheers resounded through the sky.
"Alliance Leader Qin is back!"
"Great! Alliance Leader Qin is safe and sound!"
"It seems Alliance Leader Qin has discovered something; we finally have a chance!"
Qin Ze arrived at the headquarters of the official organization. Standing there, he recounted in detail his experiences in the other world to the senior leaders and researchers. He described the strange phenomena of the void passage and the world that appeared on the other side.
The members of the official organization listened intently, their eyes gleaming with excitement when they learned that a completely new world lay beyond the void passage. This meant they might have the opportunity to explore another world and acquire more resources and knowledge.
Despite knowing their opponent might be powerful, they were not afraid, supported by technology and firearms. The official organization had always been dedicated to researching and exploring the unknown; it was their long-held dream.
The senior leaders looked at each other in bewilderment. Ultimately, they decided to conduct an in-depth study of Qin Ze's report and develop a comprehensive plan to better understand and utilize this void passage and the possible existence of another world.
Qin Ze's voice resounded throughout the official organization's conference room. He made an important suggestion, asking everyone to wait for the time being.
"Wait, don't be in such a hurry," Qin Ze said, his tone calm and composed, revealing a sense of confidence. He sensed that more void passages seemed about to open above Kunlun Mountain, a piece of information that made him wary.
Senior leaders and researchers all looked at Qin Ze, curiously asking for his reasoning. Qin Ze explained that if they rushed into the other party's world, they might miss more opportunities and information. He believed that waiting for a while and observing the opening of more void channels would allow them to better understand the other party's dynamics and intentions.
The members of the official organization considered Qin Ze's suggestion and found it to be reasonable. They decided to follow Qin Ze's advice, not to rush into action, but to wait for more information and opportunities to emerge.
Four or five days later, just as Qin Ze had predicted, another void passage was successfully opened above Kunlun Mountain.
The scene was exactly the same as before; the void passage emitted a mysterious glow, as if connecting to another unknown world. Faced with this strange spectacle, everyone was filled with shock and anticipation.
However, before Qin Ze could go in, a demon-like figure emerged from the void passage. He greedily inhaled the fresh air and then stared at the humans below with a bloodthirsty expression.
This demonic figure was tall and muscular, with red skin, a pair of enormous horns on his head, and deep, red eyes that gleamed with a fierce light. A sinister smile twisted his lips, revealing sharp teeth, and he looked utterly unfriendly.
The demon was covered in tough scales and emitted a foul stench. Strange tattoos, seemingly some kind of ancient runes, adorned his arms.
