"Watch and learn" The old man thrust his palm a single inch, but that was all it took for what was about to happen next to occur...
Before Kosmos could see what had happened, the space in front of the Xiu Zien's palm began to warp and distort, as if he was opening hundreds of dimensions are once with the single thrust of his arm.
'Battle art: Apocalypse technique'
'Thousand Dimension Palm!'
As if the palm had gone through all the distortions in space and had absorbed all the dimensions into itself, it began to glow with a silver light that illuminated the aqua ocean like the lunar rays of the moon.
However, at the same time, a cataclysmic power surged out of his palm that had also become distorted with countless after images, as if his hand itself was glitching all over the place. Yet in the next second, his hand along with the rest of his body disappeared and appeared again in the same place, just in a different position.
Now his hand was completely outstretched while his other hand was curled into a fist and placed at his waist.
Spacial rippled shout-out like bullets towards the chains and when they finally hit them, they warmed the area of space to the point where parts of the chains were swallowed into the unknown abyss of the other side of those warps.
Simultaneously, spacial cracks began to expand from the area, yet right before they were going to expand even further, it was as if they hit a natural barrier that had caused them to retreat back and into itself, closing the special cracks and taking with it a part of the chain.
Kosmos simply looked in the direction of the chains that had already begun to descend towards the earth with an agape expression, unable to believe his eyes at what just happened.
"Did you just... But how?" Kosmos asked, seemingly stupefied at what happened
"That is the power of mastery. My normal battle intent infused palm had turned into something that could make cities disappear off maps back when I was in my prime" The old man panted for a bit and finally collapsed onto his butt, sitting down and looking up at the crimson orb.
'That is not the making of mortal' Xiu Zien concluded when looking at the crimson sphere in the sky, floating there with one damaged chain around it and another chain without a single scratch on it.
Back in Lagua city, nothing significant had happened so far, or at least since the time I had broken through.
Throughout the 6 months, I would spend a large portion of the nights outside, usually hunting for bounties that I could get but it seemed that none of them were good enough or even had enough money on their head to be beneficial to me.
I spent hours if not days trying to find someone with a good bounty, but even then it was much harder than before.
This was mainly because of two things, one being my reputation as a bounty hunter and someone who had allegedly killed a wyvern singlehandedly caused crime to lessen by a major portion, but of course, not everyone believed that I was someone who could do such a thing as easily as it was described in the reports.
However, after a month of bounty hunting, I realized that the board with names had significantly decreased in size compared to before. An example would be if I had around 10 bounties each day before I had become city famous, now I would have 2 bounties each day, and even then most of them have been new people coming to the city thinking they could get away with committing major crimes.
The second reason for the fall in how many bounties I was getting was due to the change in the amount the underworld was paying onto my bounty. Ever since I had come back from Fredrick city, my bounty had begun to skyrocket, going from around 100-200 gold to a much higher price than I myself could not find out of.
Most of the people who were after the bounty now were either those who were too cocky, to begin with, or those who were confident in their power to fight against a platinum tier beast on their own. Either way, I was killing a lot more people that were after my head rather than people that had bounties on their heads, meaning my income had significantly dropped alongside every other bounty hunter in the city.
With that to the side, I usually came back home, which was now an apartment for two, but instead of living with Rose, I now lived with Olivia, something that I was already used to before living with her in the city.
Even though Rose didn't live with us now, it felt like she spent every waking moment with us, sometimes even not returning home with the excuse of how late it had become. Of course, I was not complaining, but she did spend a lot of time at our apartment.
For the rest of the day, I would either be eating, minimally speaking to the two whenever I had time, cultivating out training with Olivia and Rose.
The rest of the gang and Yuri had quickly reconciled after their argument a few months back, but after that, it was smooth sailing for all of us.
Yuri, even though did not like me as much as everyone else, had begun to warm up to me, not that I cared for her anyway. The same thing seemed to be happing with June too, and even though I did not care about her either, she had become close friends with Olivia, to the point where not only Yuri now knew that my name was Pandora White, but also June as she was regarded as 'trustworthy' by Olivia.
Anyway, at this moment of time, I was currently walking through the streets of the city looking around with my exceeding senses penetrating through the stealth barrier that most people put up so others could not see their cultivation.
