Marc Fraley surveyed the surroundings coldly, a faint smirk curling at the corner of his lips.

Ethan Smith and Jackson Harris remained entirely unaware of this development.
They continued leisurely teaching Ethan the "line word formula" from the Nine Secrets.
Ethan grasped cultivation skills remarkably fast; within just half a day, he had fully comprehended the last technique of the Nine Secrets.
Slowly opening his eyes, Ethan exhaled deeply and murmured, "With the line word formula, I should at least be able to save my own life."
Beside him, Jackson remarked, "Even with the line word formula, you're not necessarily safe."
Ethan frowned slightly, confused, and asked, "Why is that?"
Jackson explained, "Facing a Martial Saint, if you're careless for even a moment, they could lock down the space around you."
