It seemed that An Mingji sensed Allen was thinking about something messy, and he narrowed his dangerous eyes.

He stared intently at Allen, his eyes flashing a warning light.

Though uncertain of Allen’s thoughts, judging by the expression on his face and the strange gleam in his eyes, it was probably nothing good.

Under the piercing gaze of An Mingji, Allen swallowed hard and corrected his expression.

He didn’t think there was anything wrong with his thoughts.

Even mustered the courage to approach An Mingji, extending his hands as if to embrace the young master.

Just at the moment he was about to embrace him, an unexpected change occurred—

"Ah!"

Allen was violently pushed back by an invisible force.

His body staggered backward several meters, and that was even when he was desperately trying to keep his balance to avoid falling.

If it were someone else, they would surely have embarrassingly fallen to the ground, possibly getting injured.

Allen was driven several meters back, shaking his numbed arms.

The attack he had just encountered came so suddenly that he hadn’t had any time to evade, and he hadn’t seen the young master make a move.

Deeply puzzled, Allen ignored the composed faces of the subordinates around him and once again walked toward An Mingji.

This time, he approached with utmost caution to touch him.

With a hint of wariness, his movements were very slow.

This time, Allen’s fingers distinctly felt that there appeared to be an invisible barrier between him and the young master.

Upon touching the barrier, he was attacked once more, but this time, being well-prepared, he only stepped back half a pace.

Confronted with Allen’s shocked expression, An Mingji withdrew the barrier around him.

His lips curled upwards, holding a faint smile.

He was very satisfied with this.

The Dark Skill wasn’t invincible after all, as long as it could be defended against.

"Is this possibly the barrier?" Allen knew that once a superpower reached a certain level, one would have the ability to create a defensive barrier that could withstand various attacks.

He had never encountered a barrier before, nor did his powers suffice to create one.

"Yes."

An Mingji acknowledged openly, telling Allen, "Continue attacking me."

"Hmm?" Still immersed in the realization that the young master’s ability surpassed his, Allen was taken aback upon hearing this, showing a bewildered expression.

"Attack me, I want to test whether your Dark Superpower poses any threat to me."

An Mingji disliked situations beyond his control.

This was his first encounter with a Dark Superpower User, and it somewhat overturned his grasp.

If the Dark Superpower could devour, could it also devour the cultivation of cultivators?

Yang Miaomiao was not considered a superpower user; at most, the opponent was just a small minion.

Whereas Allen was the strongest among these superpower users.

He needed to know the true strength of the opponent, and only through confrontation could he truly feel it.

Understanding the young master’s intention, Allen launched his Dark Ability without hesitation.

This time, the black fog he attacked An Mingji with was thicker than before, and its speed had increased noticeably.

An Mingji no longer used his barrier to defend but directly faced off.

The spiritual energy he gathered in his hands rushed toward the void, colliding with Allen’s Dark Superpower attack, instantly devouring the opponent’s attack.

The black mist Allen had unleashed was being devoured by An Mingji’s spiritual power at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Faced with this turn of events, Allen frowned lightly, not convinced, and launched another attack.

This time, he used his ultimate move—a pillar-like black mist the size of a washbasin surged toward An Mingji.

The speed was so fast that it quickly surrounded the youth.
