When it reappeared, it was five kilometers away again.

However, there is bad news: the teleportation item is broken.

"How did this guy even find me?"

He said through gritted teeth.

This has never happened before when he used it.

This time, unlike the previous two times, he didn't run away immediately. Instead, he listened carefully to the sounds around him.

One second passed, two seconds passed, and nearly half a minute passed.

He didn't even notice anything unusual about his surroundings.

Tang Yong breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "It seems that this time, that guy didn't catch up."

"Yeah?"

A voice sounded from behind.

And the distance was very close, it seemed to be right behind him!

Tang Yong was taken aback. He raised his right hand into a palm and frantically channeled his inner energy, attacking backward.

He realized that this guy had actually followed him all along, but hadn't shown himself immediately; instead, he was toying with him.

But before he could turn around, he felt a numbness in his body and lost all feeling.

Then he felt himself being lifted up, and the wind whistled in his ears, making it almost impossible for him to open his eyes.

When he came to his senses, he found himself back in the basement he had just been in.

The bodies of several of his men were still lying on the ground.

A bloody smell lingered in the air.

Tang Yong tried to move his body, but found that his body was completely unresponsive. Even his dantian (lower abdomen) was as still as the Dead Sea, without any movement.

Clearly, the person who used the pressure points to strike him was highly skilled.

At this moment, he was no different from a cripple; even a low- to mid-level ferocious beast could easily kill him.

"Chairman Li,"

Tang Yong gave a bitter smile and said, "Chairman Li, I admit my inferiority. However, we have never done anything to wrong you. Now, my men have all died at your hands. Please, can you let me go?"

Do you think that's possible?

Chen Fan asked expressionlessly.

"Chairman Li,"

Tang Yong pleaded, "President Li, I'm willing to give you the items in my spatial storage. There are many good things inside. If you're willing to let me leave today, is that alright?"

I swear to God, if Chairman Li releases me, from this day forward until my death, I will never set foot near Anshan City. If I break this oath, may I, Tang Yong, suffer a terrible death. How about it? Chairman Li, I wonder if this will persuade you to spare my life?

"No need."

Chen Fan shook his head and said, "Even if I kill you, I can still get your spatial items. And even if I don't, so what? Do you think I'd care about the things in your spatial items?"

Tang Yong was taken aback.

Yes, the other party is an A-level Awakened!

Things that he considers extremely precious, such as spatial items and teleportation items.

In the other party's eyes, it was not worth mentioning at all, because there were better ones for them.

After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and made a decision.

"President Li, I admit that the items in my spatial storage are nothing special to you. However, I possess a complete version of a peerless martial arts technique. If you are willing to spare my life, I am willing to hand over this technique to you in exchange for my life."

"The complete version of peerless martial arts?"

Upon hearing this, a strange expression appeared on Chen Fan's face.

"Yes, the complete version of peerless martial arts."

Tang Yong hurriedly said, "President Li, I saw that what you used before was also martial arts, right? I never expected that you, President Li, are both an Awakener and a martial artist. You're amazing! If you could obtain my peerless martial arts, your martial arts strength would advance by leaps and bounds. It wouldn't be long before you could reach the Celestial Realm."

"Yeah?"

Chen Fan laughed, "Then I'd like to hear which peerless martial art it is."

Tang Yong swallowed hard and lowered his voice, "I wonder, Chairman Li, have you ever heard of the Star Absorbing Technique?"

"The Star-Absorbing Technique?"

Chen Fan's expression changed slightly.

Of course I've heard of this martial art.

Within the Awakeners Association, it costs as much as 9 points, just a little short of reaching the threshold for Supreme Martial Arts.

"That's right, the Star Absorbing Technique."

Tang Yong's face showed a smug look. "This Star Absorbing Technique can absorb a martial artist's internal energy. It can even drain all of an opponent's internal energy, turning them into a piece of trash that is not even as good as an ordinary person. And this internal energy will be transformed into our own original true essence."

"What? Primal True Essence?"

Chen Fan let out a soft cry.

As we all know, there are only two or three ways to increase one's original true essence.

One is that it increases with age.

One is meditation, but this method is not as efficient as the previous one. In the later stages, it may take a month or two of continuous meditation to increase one's original true essence.

The third method, which is the most efficient but also the most difficult, is to increase the body's original true essence by consuming rare and precious herbs.

This method resulted in the largest increase.

However, firstly, rare and precious herbs are hard to find, making them expensive; secondly, there is a diminishing marginal effect, meaning the effect will decrease with each use, ultimately making it better than nothing.

As it turns out, according to this guy, there is a fourth way to enhance one's original true essence?

Seeing Chen Fan like this, Tang Yong was secretly delighted.

Sure enough, no one could resist the temptation of the Star Absorbing Technique.

He can't.

His senior brother and master were no good.

This one surnamed Li won't do either.

"Yes, Chairman Li, you heard me right. I didn't exaggerate. Once you learn the Star Absorbing Technique, you can increase your own original true essence by absorbing the power of others, thereby enhancing the true qi within your body."

Tang Yong smiled ingratiatingly, "Take me for example. It was because I mastered this martial art that I was able to advance from the Meridian Refining Realm to the True Essence Realm in less than three years. Moreover, my Qi Sea is about to be filled, and it won't be long before I can break through to the Celestial Realm."

"Yeah?"

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes.

Judging from the tone of the other person's voice, it's clear that this guy wasn't lying.

I never imagined that the Star Absorbing Technique would have such a powerful effect.

However, using this method of stealing others' power to enhance one's own strength is ultimately not the right way.

"It seems you've absorbed a lot of people's internal energy over these three years?"

Chen Fan sneered.

Tang Yong's smile froze instantly, and he stammered, "Actually, there weren't many, and most of them wanted to kill me, so I had no choice but to do it."

Chen Fan smiled.

Only a three-year-old would believe him.

"Chairman Li,"

Tang Yong quickly changed the subject, "If you're willing to swear an oath to let me leave, I'm willing to teach you this martial art. How about it?"

"Not very good."

"Chairman Lee, is that you?"

Tang Yong was taken aback.

He stared wide-eyed at Chen Fan.

That doesn't make sense. Didn't the other person seem quite interested in this martial art before?

Why are you rejecting his offer now?

"Because I don't need you to tell me; I can learn about this technique from you."

As he spoke, Chen Fan's eyes gleamed.

Almost instantly, Tang Yong lost consciousness and lay on the ground like a piece of wood.

"Name."

"Tang Yong".

Why did you come to Anshan City?

"Because someone is hunting us down, we have to hide to escape their pursuit. When we passed through Anshan City, we heard that it was easy to enter, so we chose to come here."

Tang Yong said, word by word.

Why are they hunting you down?

"Because we have absorbed the internal energy of many martial artists, many of whom are from powerful families, and some of them want to obtain the complete version of the Star Absorbing Technique from us, so they have been inquiring about our whereabouts."

"really."

Chen Fan nodded.

He knew the other person had been lying.

However, he was somewhat surprised to find that someone was tracking them because they wanted to obtain the Star Absorbing Technique from them.

But it's also understandable.

After all, how much original true energy can one increase through hard cultivation?

Once you learn the Star Absorbing Technique, you can continuously absorb the internal energy of others.

It is both simple and efficient.

He, too, could not resist this temptation.

However, he had a bottom line: this technique could only be used on evil people, not to kill innocent people.

Otherwise, how is he any different from those cult members who treat human life like dirt?

"Tell me the complete version of the Star Absorbing Technique."

A look of hesitation suddenly appeared on Tang Yong's face.

It seems that the keyword was triggered, which brought the other party back to a little bit of their rationality.

"Um?"

Chen Fan intensified his mental focus.

"Yes."

Tang Yong answered readily this time, revealing the entire Star Absorbing Technique in one go.

Chen Fan looked at the skill panel.

When the other party uttered twenty or thirty words, a new martial art appeared in the skill bar, namely the Star Absorbing Technique.

It is an incomplete version.

As the other party revealed more, the progress of collecting the Star Absorbing Technique continued to rise, eventually reaching one hundred percent.

Chen Fan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the Star Absorbing Technique that this guy mentioned is indeed real.

"The Soul Transfer Technique is indeed a wonderful thing."

Chen Fan sighed inwardly.

Without the Soul Transfer Technique, even if this guy were willing to talk, he probably wouldn't tell the truth honestly, but would instead tamper with some key points.

Although he can recognize it, it's still quite troublesome.

Why is it better to achieve everything in one step, like we have now?

"I happen to have five million experience points. I'll max out this martial art and use this guy in front of me to test its effectiveness."

Chen Fan glanced coldly at Tang Yong on the ground.

This guy has absorbed the internal energy of countless people.

As the saying goes, karma is a cycle, and no one escapes the wrath of Heaven.

Let him experience the fate of having all his life's work drained by others.
