Within the secret realm, Shen Hex traveled alone, his steps steady and Shrinking Inches, while recalling the scene of the young man being transported away after his defeat.
He hadn't actually killed the opponent earlier. When the Cyan Dragon Divine Gang broke, a peculiar force was activated, sending the opponent away.
There's no doubt that this is the protection mechanism of the Hidden Dragon Secret Realm.
After all, this is the real world, not a virtual network. If you truly kill a person, even with means to resurrect them, you'd face staggering costs involved in their recovery. With a personnel base of tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, the Xingyi Martial Mansion's resources wouldn't tolerate such extravagance.
Therefore, the protection mechanism does not only trigger upon death but also includes a unique determination of victory and defeat.
Quite intriguing!
