An Understated Dominance Chapter 2320 [4639 – 4640] – The shadow moved quickly, freezing the ground and thickening the air as it passed. Within ten meters, it created a strange, stagnant space where everything seemed to stop.

Black Kong felt a sudden chill and a deep sense of danger. Without hesitation, he gathered all his energy and threw a powerful punch at the approaching shadow.

“Boom!”

The punch was swift and thunderous. A red fist, burning like fire, shot out and struck the dark figure.

But to Black Kong’s surprise, the red fist didn’t impact the figure. Instead, it passed through it as if it were hitting air.

“Huh?”

Black Kong’s eyes narrowed in shock. He had never faced such an attack before—one that completely ignored his energy. What was this black figure?

His muscles tensed as a red light covered his skin, forming a protective barrier. With his strength, he believed only a top grandmaster from Dragonmarsh could harm him.

Just then, a cold wind swept by.

The black figure passed right through Black Kong’s body.

“Ah!”

Black Kong convulsed, feeling as though he’d been struck by lightning. He let out a cry of pain, his hands shaking, sweat pouring down his now-pale face.

“You… How did you hurt me?” Black Kong gasped, both angry and shocked.

A sharp pain tore through his head, as if needles were piercing his brain. It wasn’t physical pain but something deeper, reaching into his very soul—an unbearable agony.

“Hehehe… You thought you were untouchable, huh? How does my Shadow Killing Technique feel?” Eduardo sneered, his eyes cold and deadly.

Shadow Killing Technique was his secret weapon, reserved for a special occasion. But now, he had to use it early, hoping to make a name for himself.

“I’ll kill you!”

Black Kong roared, pushing through the pain, and charged at Eduardo in a frenzy.

“Fool!” Eduardo sneered, forming a seal with his hands and pointing at Black Kong again.

The black figure, now a gust of cold wind, rushed at Black Kong and passed through him once more.

Black Kong’s legs buckled, and he collapsed to his knees. His head felt like it was splitting open. He was drenched in sweat, gasping for breath.

“Ah! My head… it’s going to explode!”

Black Kong clutched his head, wailing in agony. His body trembled uncontrollably. Despite his physical strength, he couldn’t withstand this attack that targeted his soul.

“Good! Finish him off!”

“Eduardo, you’re incredible! As expected of the Jaidiyyah Sect’s chief!”

“That Shadow Killing Technique is terrifying!”

The crowd was in awe, watching Black Kong writhing in pain. They hadn’t thought much of Eduardo at first, especially after seeing Black Kong consume the black iron. But when Eduardo unleashed the Shadow Killing Technique, everything changed.

The fierce and unbeatable Black Kong was now helpless under Eduardo’s relentless attack.

For the first time, they saw the true power of the Shadow Killing Technique. It was clear that the Jaidiyyah Sect was poised to rise again after two hundred years.

“This technique is extraordinary,” remarked Alloy Marshall, narrowing his eyes as he pondered. “To think a half-step Grandmaster could overpower a seasoned fighter like Black Kong. If I could get my hands on this technique, the Celestial Alliance could train warriors capable of defeating enemies far beyond their level.”

“Interested in the Jaidiyyah Sect’s secret technique?” Cyrus Hadley smirked. “Two hundred years ago, others had the same idea. They stole the Shadow Killing Technique, but guess why no one’s succeeded in mastering it since then?”

“Why?” Alloy Marshall asked.

Cyrus curled his lip. “Why should I tell you?”

Alloy Marshall frowned in irritation.

“The Shadow Killing Technique can only be passed down through inheritance,” Katy explained calmly. “Without that inheritance and exceptional comprehension, the technique is impossible to master. Over a hundred masters have tried and failed—some died, others went insane. No one dares to try anymore.”

“So that’s why,” Alloy Marshall nodded, realizing that the technique was far more complex than he’d imagined. A powerful secret lost for two centuries was not something just anyone could attempt.
