Catastrophe Card King

Chapter 858: Chapter 269: The Old Man, the Second Solution, Puppet Master (Requesting Monthly Tickets)_3

“`

Anyone who dared to touch the Melting Shield would inevitably get scorched.

However, this opponent was different.

Hogan watched as the old man, with disdain in his eyes, completely disregarded his Melting Shield, as the fist wrapped in Curse Power with a metal-like texture, directly struck his chest.

On the fist, layers of air ripples, like cannonballs leaving the barrel, poured in fiercely.

Like waves, one after another.

In that instant.

Hogan’s eyes bulged with blood as he felt the strange strength in the fist turn into dozens of heavy blows that battered his flesh and bones.

It felt like… a volcano submerged underwater, no matter how it erupted, it was suppressed by the endless water pressure.

The Melting Shield, in its fluid state, was supposed to reduce almost all physical and magical impacts. So why was there such intense damage?

This wasn’t just suppression on the level of laws.

It was a disparity in the understanding of Martial Arts.

He was being crushed in Martial Arts understanding?

Impossible!

Before Hogan could figure out what was happening, the final surge of strange strength exploded from the fist, and he “boomed” as he was sent flying backwards.

…

Even Leonard Churchill, watching with bright eyes, was shocked, “Is this Old Man’s true strength…”@@novelbin@@

It was also his first time seeing the Old Man take action.

This was the true “Curse Power Gang.”

That black fluid-like armor of Gang Air covered his entire body, making Barre Shepherd fearless of anything.

As long as this layer of Gang Air couldn’t be broken, no physical means or Spells could do anything to him.

This is an Air Skill Master cultivating to the extreme!

Compared to him, Leonard Churchill’s current Gang Air was like a thin sheet of paper.

“How exaggerated… That punch, Two-pole collapse, released at least thirty-eight layers of aftereffects. No wonder the Old Man always says my Martial Skills are all flash and no substance…”

Leonard was personally taught by Barre Shepherd, so he could understand the punch the best.

Without exaggeration, his proud mastery level of Two-pole collapse was Lv3.

To be able to release three or four layers of aftereffects, he thought he was already quite impressive.

He could almost one-shot people of the same Tier.

But now, the door to a new world had opened.

The Old Man is… Lv99!

It’s not that the Martial Skill itself is of high level.

But his current cultivation, even a casual punch, could cause apocalyptic damage.

This is Air Skill cultivation taken to its extreme!

That’s why Barre Shepherd had no interest in something like the Supreme Tyrant Body, a Demon God Forbidden Skill. Any Forbidden Technique cultivated to the extreme carries the might of a Demon God.

With such absurdly powerful Gang Air, Leonard couldn’t see how the Old Man could lose!

Leonard also knew the Old Man used this move to demonstrate the higher mysteries of Overlord Fist to him.

He couldn’t understand it at all before, but now, with the blessings of Enlightenment and the Law of Fear, he could understand a bit.

For his current Realm, even understanding a little was a tremendous improvement.

It wasn’t just Leonard who was shocked.

Even Sophia Jones, pale-faced at his side, watching this scene, her crystal-clear eyes were full of disbelief.

She intended to suppress her injuries and help if a fight broke out.

But seeing this, it was completely unnecessary.

So this senior was so strong.

Sophia herself had just experienced Hogan’s terror firsthand.

She was heavily injured in a three-against-one.

But she had to admit, even one-on-one, the guy was at least as strong as her, if not stronger.

And yet, such a formidable enemy was repelled by a single blow?

Her gaze froze for a moment, as if her brain only just dared to accept that the scene she witnessed was not an illusion.

Seeing Sophia’s incredulous gaze, Leonard confirmed her guess, “This is senior Barre Shepherd.”

“…”

Upon hearing that, Sophia realized it made sense.

When she was in Flood Gang, although she had heard about a senior in Upper State Prison of Sinless City who was in secluded cultivation,

That senior never showed himself and didn’t want outsiders to know.

She hadn’t inquired further.

And even Nine Master, who provided the information, didn’t know Barre Shepherd had reached such a Realm.

Her eyes shifted with anticipation as she asked, “Has that senior stepped into the ‘Demigod Realm’?”

Leonard nodded, “Mhm.”

With those words, Sophia was not only shocked but filled with admiration.

No one understood better than a Legendary Card Master how difficult that threshold was for the Card Master Civilization to cross.

For the past three thousand years, everything above the Legend in Card Master Civilization was darkness.

And today.

Sophia saw such a scene.

In a desolate wilderness shrouded in darkness, there was a pioneer with a torch, illuminating a thorny path.

….

This scene not only shocked Leonard and her.

The onlookers were all dumbfounded.

Those hidden in every corner to watch the battle were silent, yet couldn’t help simultaneously swallowing hard.

No one could believe that a Legendary powerhouse, thought to be at the peak of card masters, could be blown away by a punch.

“Who exactly is that senior?”

“That’s too exaggerated. Is that still ‘Curse Power Strong Air’? It’s been condensed to such an extent that the defense is probably thicker than even Legendary Armor…”

“I know who it is! That’s Barre Shepherd, ‘The First Air Skill Master in the World’ from eighty years ago!”

“Didn’t you guys notice, that aura for a moment just now, seemed more authentic than the pressure of Demonic Solution…”

“…”

There were many experts in these ruins, including top-notch insightful individuals.

Air Skill Master, age, tier… even if you look over the Federation’s two-hundred-plus-year history, they are few and far between.

They had already recognized who the Old Man was.
