Chapter 510 Tenfold Tranquil Palms
Larry only felt his whole body burning up.
Countless streams of heat were running wild inside him, and his body felt like it was about to explode.
But he kept his eyes locked on Fracture.
Memorizing his every movement, remembering every word he said.
In the dungeon.
Fracture kept performing the Tenfold Tranquil Palms.
The iron chains rattled.
Larry's brain was racing, thinking, learning, until he couldn't hold on any longer and passed out.
He didn't know how long he'd been unconscious when he slowly woke up.
Remembering something, he quickly stood up.
He walked toward Fracture nearby.
Fracture was sitting cross-legged on the ground, head lowered.
"Sir."
He called out.
Fracture didn't respond.
Larry approached him, gently pushing him and calling out, "Sir, what's wrong?"
The moment he touched Fracture's body, Fracture fell to the ground.
Larry's expression changed slightly. He quickly grabbed his wrist and felt for his pulse.
Larry froze.
Fracture had long since stopped breathing. He'd been dead for quite some time.
Larry dropped to his knees with a thud. Looking at Fracture lying on the ground, he said seriously, "Sir, your disciple will never let you down. I will fulfill your will."
Larry kowtowed several times before standing up.
Just as he stood, he heard footsteps.
His body leaped up, quickly appearing at the top of the stone cave, pressing his body against the rock.
Soon, some people walked over.
"Master, Fracture is dead."
"Makes sense. Counting the time, the old guy's time was up. Did you see Larry?"
"Not yet, but the exit has been guarded the whole time. He definitely hasn't left. He must still be hiding in this underground cave."
"Send more people to search."
"Yes."
Voices came from below.
Larry didn't make any rash moves.
Soon, Fracture's body was carried out, and the people below left too.
Only then did Larry jump down from the rock, landing steadily on the ground.
"My Qi now?"
Larry activated the Heavenly Force Qigong.
The moment he did, the Qi inside him surged like a mighty river, flowing rapidly through his meridians and gathering in his fist.
At that moment, he felt incredibly powerful, like he was invincible.
"Peak of the seventh realm, close to the eighth realm Qi. Am I really this lucky? Locked in this dungeon, yet I gained peak seventh realm Qi, close to the eighth realm. My current level should be considered seventh realm, right?"
Feeling how abundant his Qi was, Larry's face showed shock.
He was so much stronger now than before.
Not just a little stronger.
But exponentially stronger.
"Whew!"
Larry couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"Tenfold Tranquil Palms..."
He remembered the martial art Fracture had performed after transferring his power.
He closed his eyes, and the Tenfold Tranquil Palms appeared in his mind.
Just as he was seriously trying to understand it, footsteps came from the distance again, along with strong flashlight beams sweeping around.
He activated his full power and rushed forward quickly.
In the distance, some guards with strong flashlights walked over, searching for Larry in the underground cave.
At that moment, a sound of rushing wind echoed.
"What was that?"
The Rivera family guards quickly shone their flashlights, but there was nothing around.
"Did you guys hear something?"
"Yeah, must be the wind."
"Let's go, keep searching. Stop being paranoid."
"Larry's body was sealed and he still managed to escape, but this underground cave only has one exit. With guards at the door, he definitely can't get out. In two days, when all the heroes gather, that'll be the day the Rivera family becomes famous."
"You guys think Cody will bring Paisley to apologize?"
"Haha, I bet he won't."
The Rivera family members searching for Larry chatted while they searched.
But on the stone wall above their heads, a person was clinging there.
It was Larry.
Hearing their conversation, he couldn't help but frown.
It seemed Megan's plan to use him and Paisley to drive a wedge between the Bennett family and the Rivera family had worked. Now the Bennett family had already fallen out with the Rivera family.
"I need to get out of here fast."
Larry activated his Qi. His body moved like a bat, flying through the underground cave. This time he controlled his Qi, trying not to make any sound.
There were quite a few people below, but none of them noticed him.
Hiding and dodging, he safely reached the exit.
At the exit ahead, Rivera family members were standing guard.
Larry frowned slightly, then raised his hand. A powerful burst of energy shot from his fingertips.
The energy hit these people, and they instantly passed out, falling to the ground.
Larry quickly rushed out of the dungeon.
After getting out, there were still people guarding outside.
"Who's there?"
As soon as he came out, he was spotted.
However, before the Rivera family members outside the entrance could react, they fell to the ground.
Larry knew the Rivera family had skilled fighters, so he didn't dare linger. He quickly left.
He soon left the Rivera family's location and went to Westling City.
Larry got a hotel room and cleaned himself up.
In the hotel room.
Larry leaned back in his chair, lost in thought.
From the Rivera family members' conversation, he learned that the Bennett family had already broken with the Rivera family, and the Rivera family wanted Cody to bring Paisley to apologize.
He guessed that the Rivera family must be using his life to threaten the Bennett family.
But now he had escaped.
The Rivera family had lost their leverage to threaten Cody.
He was thinking about whether he should call the Bennett family now to tell them he had escaped.
But he felt that now was the perfect time to see Cody's true colors.
If Cody could bring Paisley to apologize for his sake, if he could bow to the Rivera family for him and Paisley, then Cody was still reliable for now.
And the Rivera family had invited powerful people from all over to gather—what exactly did they want to do?
After careful thought, Larry didn't make the call.
He decided to hide for two days first, to see what the Rivera family was up to in two days, to see if Cody would show up.
After thinking this through, he let out a long breath.
"My current realm?"
He stopped thinking about the Bennett family and Rivera family situation.
He activated the Heavenly Force Qigong, and the abundant Qi in his body instantly gathered in his palm.
"So strong, such powerful Qi."
Larry couldn't help but marvel.
He stayed in the room without going out.
He was comprehending the Tenfold Tranquil Palms that Fracture had taught him.
In his mind, scenes of Fracture performing this ultimate technique appeared.
Every movement of Fracture's appeared clearly in his mind.
His every word echoed in Larry's mind.
"Fracture."
After comprehending for a long time, Larry suddenly stood up and started practicing the movements.
But this was a hotel, and he didn't dare activate his Qi, afraid he'd shake the hotel down.
He got up, left the hotel, took a cab to the suburbs, kept moving away from the city, entered a deep forest, found a deserted place, and started practicing the palm technique.
In the woods, a figure moved rapidly.
His body leaped up, appearing in mid-air, and suddenly struck out with a palm.
Powerful energy gathered in his palm. A strong current of air surged from his palm, striking a rock 100 feet away.
Boom!
The rock instantly shattered into pieces, with many fragments flying up.
"Such powerful force."
Looking at the power unleashed from his palm, Larry was stunned.
"Worthy of being the Rivera family's ultimate technique. Just the first palm has such terrifying power. If I could master all the skills, then..."
Larry couldn't imagine.
He knew that from now on, he was no longer the Larry that everyone used to hunt down.
He no longer feared any force in Aurora Citadel.
