Hao Ren and Han Lingshi combined their efforts to hold back the shockwave from the explosion. However, the spiritual energy was disturbed around place, and the diameter of this disturbance was about a thousand miles. Many people sensed that the spiritual energy from their surroundings has been sucked away.
A few elders opened their eyes and they vanished from their spots to check out what was going on. Such big spiritual movement often included the birth of a treasure, and despite being old, these people were curious and they would go to any lengths to get a treasure beneficial for them.
A dozen of people appeared around the meteor fall city. They spotted Hao Ren and Han Lingshi standing in the void, with smiles on their faces. One of the people asked, "Who are you, and what is going on here?"
Hao Ren turned around to look at them and clasped his fist as he said, "Greetings, I am Hao Ren, and this is my wife, Han Lingshi. I apologize for disturbing you all by the sudden movement of the spiritual energy, but we just finished a battle here."
The people frowned and one of them said, "Your realm is not so high, how can you create such a huge movement in the spiritual energy?"
Han Lingshi frowned, and Hao Ren maintained his smile as he said, "We have out cards just like all of you, Seniors, I hope you understand."
A few elders nodded but the man who had just spoken shook his head and said, "I think you two acquired a treasure here. It doesn’t look like you belong to any big force, are you coveting a treasure that is meant for the stronger people, boy."
Hao Ren was stunned and then Han Lingshi started laughing. Hao Ren looked at her, and she took a step forward as she said, "Are you trying to make things difficult for us, Elder?"
The old man looked at the little girl and said, "I would watch that tone if I were you. Since you don’t wish to give up the treasure, I will ask you last time to hand over your space rings. Then you can go home and play house with your dolls."
The people around didn’t appear to be surprised, someone remarked, "Shameless Halio is at it again. Tch, can someone say something to him."
Another person said, "Don’t you know what he did the last time someone tried to teach him a lesson, this bastard made his life a hell by constant harassment."
Hao Ren and Han Lingshi heard these words and they exchanged gazes. The man before them was a World King realm cultivator. How could the two of them face him without revealing their complete strength?
Hao Ren said with a serious expression on his face, "Senior, may I ask your esteemed name?"
The old man snorted and said, "I am Halio Caro, the sect master of the Heavenly Hand Sect."
Hao Ren nodded and said, "Lingshi, give him the space ring we found."
He used his spiritual communication with her, ’The bomb ring.’
Han Lingshi sighed, she didn’t show it on her face that she was happy, even her eyes have turned depressed, and she took out the space ring. She then was about to toss it to Halio when the old man waved his hand and the ring shot towards him. The old man inspected the space ring, and then raised his brows with a smile and said, "Good, I don’t know what this is, but seems powerful, I shall get going and analyse it back at home."
The old man found a golden lotus floating inside the space ring, he thought it was a particular form of energy that would be helpful in his cultivation. The man was being watched by everyone and was wary that if they all attacked him he would not be able to survive. So, as soon as he held the ring, the man vanished from the spot.

Han Lingshi and Hao Ren held hands and the young man said, "I can also give you all a demonstration of the treasure he got, but its all on your own choice."
Someone became curious and asked, "What do you mean?"
Hao Ren took out his refiner token and said, "My name is Ren, and I am an artifact refiner."
The people were shocked, they have all heard his name. The youngest grandmaster of all times, he surpassed the genius Refining Saint and refined a heavenly artifact with a divine spirit. Hao Ren continued, "The city lords of the nearby cities here wanted to conspire against me and try to obtain my Divine puppet, so just before you all came, me and my wife joined hands and killed them. Thus, the spiritual energy from your positions was sucked back here."
The woman asked, "Grandmaster Ren, what did you give to shameless Halio?"
Hao Ren smiled and said, "You will know soon."
As soon as his words stopped, the people heard an explosion. The intensity was similar to the previous one, but it came from another direction and the spiritual energy moved from their position to another place once again. Hao Ren wanted to avoid going there but then Han Lingshi said, "Are you going to swallow the fact that we were almost robbed by them?"
Hao Ren shook his head, he wanted to say yes, but looking in her eyes he could not say anything. The system said, ’Task for you, since you would follow the desire of your wife so much, you should use this chance to reach the second level of Yin and Yang union. Reward: Fame point bar.’
Hao Ren asked, ’What is the fame point? How does that help me? Secondly, I have no time to think about the second level of the Yin and Yang union. It is not something that can be achieved so easily as if it was having a meal.’
The system replied, ’Listen here you dimwitted fool. The hint you will get from me is simple, the principle of Yin and Yang is similar to ice and fire, do you know what happens when extremely cold air is exposed to intense heat in a compressed atmosphere? Also, fame points will get you recognition and not make you an easy target.’
Hao Ren stopped for a second, with all the things he had learned in the past few years, he could understand what was going on real quick. He looked at Han Lingshi and said, "Love."
Han Lingshi looked at him and saw that the man wanted her to hold his hand. The next moment, they shot through the void as if a rail gun had fired a shot. While on the way, Hao Ren told Han Lingshi a few things that he wanted her to do.
Although she was curious, but she still agreed to his instructions. After a few minutes, they arrived at the location of the explosion and found a bloodied figure standing in the void, and his body was healing. The right side of the body had been missing completely.
Han Lingshi mumbled, "I thought he would die from that."
The people looked at the couple with a shock in their eyes, and they wanted to say something when the injured Halio said, "After I heal, you two are dead."
Han Lingshi nodded and said, "Yes, after you heal that is."
She waved her hand and a cloud of blue flames appeared around Halio as she said, "Frozen Void."
The old man said, "They can’t harm me, bitch."
At this moment, Hao Ren’s gaze changed and so did his aura. Everyone else sensed it and they gulped. They realized that his wife was his reverse scale. Hao Ren waved his hands and formed a few seals with his fingers leaving a small hole in the barrier around Halio. This hole was the inlet valve.
Han LIngshi used her all, turning the flames to reach the coldest temperature. They caused the air around the barrier to crystallize, so it was easy to assume that the inside was below zero degree.
After a few minutes, Han Lingshi stopped and right then, Hao Ren shot his orange flames inside the barrier. The sudden change in temperature was spiking. The heat was so extreme that it caused the people to back off. All they could see was a stream of orange pouring inside the barrier.
After Hao Ren used his Yin and Yang eyes, he made a few more seals with his hands and the barrier began to squeeze. Hao Ren had refined control over his flames and as soon as he compressed the barrier, the pressure began to increase. The pressure increased so much that Halio inside couldn’t move, his blood was squeezed out of him only to be evaporated in the heat.
Then, Han Lingshi made a cloud of blue flames outside of the barrier, and the people were wondering what is going on. When the temperature was polar opposite of each other, Hao Ren let go of the barrier. The sudden release of the pressure and the collision of the hot and cold air. Halio was first frozen, then heated to the core, and when that happened his body began to crumble from inside out.
