Chapter 89 - Annihilated by a Palm

A huge palm stretched across the void. All the martial artists below, amd even everyone in Dragonlith City, saw this huge palm.

Everyone was incomparably quiet, even somewhat strangely so.

Forget about ordinary people, even the inhuman experts who had broken the genetic lock were stunned when they saw this huge palm. They were extremely shocked.

How many people could personally witness a Sage in action?

Lin Feng was also very shocked. He had suppressed 30 demons previously and had also awakened a few innate abilities, even including the undying characteristic. He had also seen the innate abilities of some other inhuman experts, and all of them were extraordinary.

However, be it a great increase in strength, power that allowed one to demolish a building with their bare hands, or the undying characteristic that could allow one to recover from even having their heads blasted off, all of these were within his understanding.

Even though it was a little unbelievable, it was still ultimately acceptable, and within Lin Feng’s understanding. Although inhuman experts were strong, their strengths all advanced step by step, and weren’t that incomprehensible.

But now? Once the Invincible Fist Sage attacked, that gigantic palm that blotted out the sky looked about the size of an ordinary palm, but how could an ordinary palm made of flesh and blood be so enormous?

However, if it wasn’t made of flesh and blood, what was with this gigantic palm? Was it some kind of innate ability?

Lin Feng did not know, nor did the other inhuman experts, including the Chief Commander. They could only stare blankly at the gigantic palm in the sky, which lay across the void.

Moreover, this palm was still growing larger and larger.

The palm had yet to land, but everyone could sense the terrifying power contained in it. Lin Feng had no doubt that if this palm landed, the entire Dragonlith City would be reduced to ashes.

His palm continued to expand and expand, rapidly extending to the sky above the dire beasts not far away.

How could the dire beasts not be afraid when the massive black palm hung above their heads? Even the 30 demons seemed to have sensed something horrifying, and were fleeing frantically.

But how fast could they run?

The gigantic palm in the sky could expand almost a kilometer in range per second. In just a few seconds, this gigantic palm had covered an area of about five kilometers. No matter how fast those demons were, how could they be faster than the speed at which the palm landed?

All of a sudden, a gigantic palm fell. The dark mass of the palm descended from the sky, as if Mount Tai was crushing down upon them. Countless dire beasts wailed, howled, and screamed, but all of it was futile.

They fled in a frenzy, but how far could they escape? The tens of thousands of dire beasts and the 30 demons were all enveloped by the gigantic palm.

Boom.

The enormous palm finally landed. It was as if an earthquake had occurred within a radius of fifty kilometers. For a moment, the mountains and rivers shook. Even the buildings and houses of Dragonlith City were shaking violently.

Fortunately, it was only one shock wave, and it did not last for long.

The earth returned to normal, and the buildings of Dragonlith City stopped shaking. However, to those dire beasts, this was a true catastrophe.

As the gigantic palm landed, the area covered by the palm was completely razed to the ground. Whether it was mountains, rivers, forests, or farms, they all vanished.

All that was left was rubble.

As for the dire beasts, none of their corpses could be seen. They had all been crushed into a bloody mush that seeped into the ground, blending into the soil and rocks.

The other 30 demons were nowhere to be seen, either. They were obviously no different from other dire beasts. The so-called undying characteristic was laughable under this calamitous palm strike.

This was the might of a Sage. It could destroy worlds, and was the pillar of support for all humans. Only with Nine Sages presiding over the depths of the Outland could there be peace and stability in human society today, free of harassment from the dire beasts.

It had been a long time since any Sages had appeared in public. Moreover, they would not display their strength easily.

But now, the Invincible Fist Sage in action made everyone realize just how formidable a Sage was. That was completely incomprehensible and unimaginable, having reached the far side of a profound state.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Sages were deities.

While everyone was still stunned, the Invincible Fist Sage had already landed again. He shook his head and said, “There’s still some follow-up work to be done. I’ll leave it to Long Duo. Lin Feng, lead the way to the research institute in Dragonlith City. I want to see the parasitic bodies of those dire beasts.”

“Yes, Lord Sage.”

Long Duo caught on immediately. What finishing touches? All those dire beasts did not even leave behind corpses. It was even less likely for any dire beast to survive.

With a single palm strike, tens of thousands of dire beasts were reduced to dust. The demon that they were helpless against earlier on did not even have any strength to resist.

Even the inhuman experts who had broken the genetic lock had felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Lin Feng did not know why the Invincible Fist Sage had specifically asked him to follow him, but he did not ask. After seeing the Invincible Fist Sage fly towards Dragonlith City, he followed behind.

Being able to follow a Sage was a rare opportunity. Lin Feng had just broken the genetic lock, and there were many things he had yet to understand about the genetic lock.

Even the majestic power of the Invincible Fist Sage just now had stunned Lin Feng. Perhaps he could take this opportunity to consult the Invincible Fist Sage.

At this moment, Lin Feng did not know how many martial artists envied him before televisions and computer screens. When those inhuman experts saw Lin Feng following the Invincible Fist Sage, their faces were also filled with envy.

Everyone knew how lucky it was to be by the side of a Sage.

However, most of the ordinary people in the world did not envy Lin Feng, because their focus had long been attracted by the Invincible Fist Sage’s almost legendary palm strike.

How majestic was that palm? Even with technological weapons, it would be rather difficult to level a five-kilometer radius. However, this was only a casual palm strike from the Invincible Fist Sage.

Hence, there was another round of discussions about “Sage’s strength” on the Internet. Whether they knew about it or not, or if it was just hearsay, everyone was discussing it in full swing. They were all analyzing how powerful a human Sage’s strength was.

As for Dragonlith City, parasitic dire beasts, dead or injured martial artists, and so on, they had long been forgotten by the ordinary people. Humans were the most forgetful beings of all. They were only concerned about interesting things.

Without a doubt, the Sage’s palm strike was what interested them the most right now.

In the sky, Lin Feng and the Invincible Fist Sage flew towards the research institute at high speed.

On the way, Lin Feng held it in for a long time. He had countless questions that he wanted to ask, but he held them back in the end. Now was not the time to ask.

The research institute was not far from the city. The Invincible Fist Sage and Lin Feng soon arrived at the research institute.

Swoosh.

Immediately, a great many armed soldiers and fully armed martial artists came forward to surround Lin Feng and the Invincible Fist Sage. After all, the research institute was an important place, and entry was not permitted freely.

However, someone quickly recognized Lin Feng and the Invincible Fist Sage, and immediately dismissed the guards.

“How’s the research on those parasitic dire beasts coming along?” The Invincible Fist Sage asked with a solemn expression.

“Lord Fist Sage, Professor Wei is researching the best he can in the laboratory. I’ll get Professor Wei to report to Lord Fist Sage immediately.”

“No need. Let them focus on researching. We’ll wait first.”

With that, the Invincible Fist Sage led Lin Feng directly to the living room to wait.

“Little fellow, just ask what you want to ask. Don’t hold it in anymore.”

Seeing Lin Feng’s hesitation to speak, the Invincible Fist Sage also revealed a rare smile. Wasn’t his very purpose of specifically calling Lin Feng over to give him an opportunity?.
