Chapter 2059

Author: Marina Vittori
"I'm Quincy Douglas, the guardian of the Celestial Alliance!" declared the elderly man, standing with his hands clasped behind him.

"What? He's Quincy Douglas?"

"The Celestial Alliance is the top martial arts group in the martial world. It has ten guardians, each overseeing a specific region. Who would've thought we'd be lucky enough to meet Elder Douglas here today?"

"Elder Douglas has been the guardian of the Celestial Alliance for many years, holding a high-ranking position. With him here, those two Kimbokurats won't be causing much havoc!"

Conversations buzzed among the crowd, with eyes showing particular reverence toward Quincy.

While many hadn't seen Quincy in person before, they were familiar with his reputation.

As one of the elite top ten guardians of the Celestial Alliance, Quincy was undeniably a significant presence in the martial world.

Not only was he strong and experienced, but he also commanded great respect wherever he went.

  • An Understated Dominance   Chapter 2695

    Dustin pointed at the inscription on the tablet, specifically the lines that read, "Though it resembles the elixir of immortality, it is in truth a supremely evil thing", and "Those who consume it will have their spirit and soul destroyed, or transformed into dragon puppets.""It seems the rumors we heard about the elixir of immortality likely refer to this Dragonblood Fruit," he said grimly. "It's not a real elixir at all, but a corrupted creation born from the Maleficar Dragon's lingering essence mixing with the life force of this place."The revelation hit Grace like a physical blow, draining the color from her face. After all the hardship and the lives lost along the way, what she had been pursuing was actually a "supremely evil elixir" that could destroy one's soul or turn them into a monster."How… How can this be?" she stammered, stepping back in shock. Was this the end of her only hope to cure her ailing father.Just then, one guard who stayed behind swallowed hard when h

  • An Understated Dominance   Chapter 2694

    After a short rest, Grace let out a soft, steadying breath. She then turned to look at those who had stayed behind.Rhydian's eyes were resolute. The other two guards gripped their weapons tightly despite their pale faces. Cyprian sat slumped against the cave wall, his gaze hollow yet carrying a hint of resigned calm. Meanwhile, Judith looked at her with worry written all over her face.Finally, Grace's eyes settled on Dustin. He remained in meditation, eyes closed, seemingly detached from the world and its troubles. That transcendent calm somehow calmed her restless heart."Let's go," she said.Her voice regained its customary chill, but now underpinned by a grim, do-or-die resolve.As if on cue, Dustin opened his eyes. He gave a single, curt nod. Without a word, he led the way toward the narrow passage at the far end of the cavern.The tunnel was cramped and damp, forcing them to proceed in single file, bent double. The air was thick with the smell of damp earth and decay. It w

    Kyle and his group clung to the slim hope of taking their share of supplies and finding another way out through the caverns. Even if the chances were slim, it was better than knowingly walking down a dead end with no way back.Rhydian turned pale with fury. He clenched his fists, wanting to berate them. But when he looked at the comrades he'd fought alongside and saw the fear in their eyes, the harsh words died in his throat. He was just as terrified, but duty and loyalty held him back."You… How could you do this?" Judith snapped, her voice tight with frustration as she stamped her foot. "Her Highness has treated you well, and now you would turn tail at the first sign of danger?"Grace looked at the men before her, tears and snot running down their faces as they pleaded desperately. Her heart was a whirlpool of conflicting emotions. There was disappointment, the chill of betrayal, but even more than that, there was a deep sorrow and helplessness.She understood their fear. If even

    The warning Ysolde left behind made the atmosphere in the cave even more oppressive.The process of distributing supplies no longer held any relief. Instead, it was carried out with a grim, meticulous caution. Clean water and dried rations were divided equally among everyone. Grace personally kept the box of healing tablets for emergencies.They all ate in silence, chewing tasteless rations that felt like sawdust in their mouths.In the corner, the two most severely injured guards sat slumped against the stone wall, their faces ashen. One had a chest wound from the shadow mist. Though bandaged, a grayish death energy continued spreading from the injury. His breathing came shallow and labored. It was apparent that he was on the brink of death.The other had lost an arm. Though the bleeding had been stopped, the immense pain and blood loss left him delirious, and he occasionally let out incoherent groans.Their pitiful state shook the rest of the survivors to their core, rattlin

    Guided by Dustin, the surviving guards, along with Grace and Judith, dove into the icy pool one after another. They swam through the dark underwater passage, heading toward the unknown. The tunnel was short, only about 200 feet in length.A dim light soon appeared ahead. Everyone swam toward it with all their strength, breaching what felt like a thin, silken veil of water before their heads emerged above the surface. What greeted them was an enormous naturally formed cavern.Countless stalactites hung from the ceiling, glowing with soft white light that illuminated the entire cavern. At the center lay another pool, connected to the one they'd come from.Growing along the cave walls were strange luminescent mosses and low-growing plants. The air carried a faint, sandalwood-like fragrance that calmed the mind. But what shocked them most was what sat in one corner of the cave.Several well-sealed leather pouches treated with special oils lay there, along with a few worn but still shar

    A deep, muffled rumble echoed from the direction of the crevices they'd just passed. The ground trembled slightly, sending fragments of stone down."What is going on?" the guard captain cried out, his voice tinged with alarm as he stared toward the entrance.The entrance, which had allowed only one person to pass at a time, was now completely blocked. An enormous boulder had appeared there at some point, and no one had noticed it. It was as if an invisible giant hand had sealed off their escape route from the outside."Damn it! Our way back is cut off."One guard rushed forward and shoved against the massive stone with all his strength, only to find it immovable. It was heavier than he could have ever imagined.Panic spread as the others rushed forward, hacking at it with swords and axes. They managed only a few white scratches on the boulder's surface. It didn't look like any ordinary rock and seemed to be bound by some kind of restriction seal."It's a formation! We're trapped
