6: This punch is my way of avenging you, my brothers.

At this moment, Luo Jin also realized Zhou Xing's intention—the opponent was destroying his Battle Domain.

And for the first time, Zhou Xing took the initiative to charge toward Luo Jin.

Ice-Fire Power emerged and intertwined on both his hands, forming a blue-and-white energy vortex.

This was the first time Zhou Xing had attempted to fuse the two powers together.

It was only because Zhou Xing's current strength had reached the Tong Yuan Peak; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to sustain it for long before the backlash erupted within him.

Luo Jin roared, and in his haste, he swung the army knife in his hand for a horizontal slash.

"Crack!"

The moment the army knife came into contact with Liu Nian's fused Ice-Fire Power, it shattered instantly.

"This is impossible!"

Zhou Xing sneered, secretly mobilizing more power as he slammed a punch into Luo Jin's chest.

"Boom!"

The fused Ice-Fire Power wrapped around his fist also erupted violently at that moment.

A terrifying explosive shockwave swept across the entire stage, even affecting some audience members who were standing too close.

They dodged frantically in a panic.

Luo Jin's body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, slamming heavily against the iron mesh. He spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura becoming withered and weak.

The hexagonal metal plate on his chest had directly caved in.

Luo Jin tried to struggle to his feet, only to find that his chest had been frozen by frost.

Furthermore, a surge of intense flames had entered his body, burning continuously and refusing to be extinguished.

"You're not at the Mid Tong Yuan Stage; you've reached the late tong yuan stage too? You..."

Zhou Xing walked over slowly, looking down at him from above, and removed his mask.

"Commander, long time no see..."

Seeing Zhou Xing's face, Luo Jin's pupils dilated with shock, and for the first time, a look of terror appeared on his face.

"So... it's you..."

No wonder Luo Jin had sensed some familiar moves from his opponent during the duel just now; everything made sense now.

Zhou Xing did not give him a chance to continue. After putting his mask back on, his Ice-Fire Power erupted completely!

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

Accompanied by series of screams of extreme pain, Luo Jin finally collapsed to the ground in despair.

A charred hole appeared in his chest, with frost covering the edges.

"This punch, I'm returning it to you on behalf of my brothers."

The entire venue was deathly silent at this moment.

Everyone was shocked by this scene, unable to recover for a long time.

"Night Crow!"

"Night Crow!"

"Night Crow!"

...A few seconds later, heart-wrenching and passionate shouts echoed throughout the entire venue.

Countless gamblers frantically waved their betting slips; some were ecstatic, while others were filled with regret.

On Luo Jin's corpse, two divinity fragments glowing with a dark red light emerged, not dissipating on their own.

"Two?"

Zhou Xing raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

Evidently, after his first fusion of a fragment, Luo Jin had forcibly fused another god of war divinity fragment.

The hexagonal metal plate on his chest was clearly a surgical modification necessitated by the forced fusion of the fragments.

The people from The Crucible then took the stage to collect the divinity fragments for safekeeping.

Zhou Xing intended to leave as soon as possible to avoid any accidents.

After stepping off the stage, the receptionist who had helped him place his bet earlier respectfully handed a translucent glass bottle and a black card to Zhou Xing.

"Mr. Night Crow, these are the two divinity fragments from just now."

"Also, this is your profit for this round. After deducting the service fees and including the previous four million, it comes to a total of 22 million."

It was the first time Zhou Xing had seen this kind of black card, and he looked somewhat uneasy.

"Please rest assured, this black card is universal in Summer Country."

"Normally, it can only be obtained once your savings reach over fifty million, and it comes with certain privileges."

"Consider this a small token of our appreciation."

The receptionist saw what Zhou Xing was thinking and quickly explained.

"If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."

Zhou Xing said no more, turning to head through the player passage toward the way he had come.

He appeared calm, but in reality, he was extremely vigilant.

After all, his performance tonight was quite dazzling and might attract some unnecessary attention.

Sure enough, after Zhou Xing left, a man wearing a dark red suit in a VIP box slowly set down his wine glass.

"Investigate his background," the man instructed the assistant serving beside him, his gaze deep.

"An Awakened One who suddenly appeared and even killed Luo Jin, who had forcibly fused two divinity fragments, shouldn't be a nobody."

"Yes, Boss!" the assistant replied with a bow.

On the other side, in a corner of the audience stands, a woman wearing a silver mask quietly stood up. A flash of green energy flickered at her fingertips.

Looking in the direction Zhou Xing had left, her figure flashed and she vanished into the exiting crowd like a ghost.

The things Zhou Xing worried about did not happen; the process of leaving "The Crucible" was very smooth.

But it made sense upon reflection; he was currently only in the Tong Yuan stage. To a large-scale power like "The Crucible,"

he did not pose a threat for the time being.

After walking out of The Crucible, Zhou Xing finally had the opportunity to carefully check all of his current information.

"System, I want to view my detailed information."

Immediately after, a familiar azure screen appeared in his vision:

【host: Zhou Xing】

【Current Strength: late tong yuan stage Peak】

【Plundered Fragments: "god of frost" fragment (15%), "god of flame" fragment (10%),】

【"god of wind control" fragment (15%), "god of steel" fragment (15%), "god of hallucination" fragment (15%),】

【"god of thunder" fragment (15%), "god of phantom" fragment (15%)】

【Obtained Resistances: Frost Resistance Lv.1 (Reduces Ice damage by 15%)】

【Fire Resistance Lv.2 (Reduces Fire damage by 20%)】

【Wind Resistance Lv.1 (Reduces Wind damage by 15%)】

【Mental Resistance Lv.1 (Reduces Mental damage by 15%)】

【Thunder Resistance Lv.1 (Reduces Thunder damage by 15%)】

【Obtained Abilities: Frost Control (Basic), Flame Control (Basic), Partial Metallization (Basic),】

【Shadow Clone (Basic), Hallucination (Basic), Thunder Strike (Basic), Gale Step (Basic)】

Seeing this, Zhou Xing gained a detailed understanding of his own abilities.

Moreover, he still had two god of war divinity fragments.

After plundering and fusing them, he might be able to break through directly to the Base Condensation Realm.

At that time, he would be able to accept more high-priced bounty missions.

Thinking no more, Zhou Xing quickened his pace to leave.

Five minutes later, Zhou Xing suddenly ducked into the corner of a convenience store in the black market.

His gaze quietly shifted toward the direction he had come from.

He saw three figures immediately dart into the shadows of the alley entrance, their movements swift.

"Can't wait already?"

Zhou Xing's eyes glinted with a cold light.

He turned and walked from the alley entrance toward the abandoned commercial street ahead.

Before entering the commercial street,

Zhou Xing set up traps in several hidden locations in advance.

He also deliberately slowed his pace, leaving clear tracks on the road surface.

After seeing Zhou Xing disappear, the three figures emerged from the darkness.

The leading man pressed his headset: "Target may have entered the commercial street. Follow carefully; don't get spotted."

Instantly, the three of them began to close in on Zhou Xing's position bit by bit.
