An Understated Dominance Chapter 2692
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
An Understated Dominance Chapter 2691
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
An Understated Dominance Chapter 2689
As soon as Mirage escaped, the last remnants of the unnatural energy fluctuation in the valley had finally subsided.The survivors slowly opened their eyes and removed their hands from their ears. They looked at the real yet desolate scenery around them. Recalling everything they had just been through, everyone felt as if they were in another world.Several injured guards collapsed to the ground. They gasped for breath, and their faces were etched with lingering fear.Grace walked up to Dustin. Seeing his somewhat pale complexion, she asked with concern, "Are you alright?"Shaking his head, he looked toward the direction Mirage had fled. "I'm fine. Just drained from the mental battle," he replied. "Her core was damaged, so she probably won't dare show herself again anytime soon."Judith pressed a hand to her chest, still shaken. "That was terrifying. Those illusions were practically impossible to fight. If Mr. Rhys hadn't figured out her weakness, none of us would have made it."

"Judith, it's me! Snap out of it!" Grace shouted.Every instinct told her to shove away the figure she saw as her sworn enemy, but she forced herself to stay put and gripped Judith's wrist tighter.With her advanced cultivation and iron-willed focus, she managed to hold on to a sliver of clarity. Even so, she still reeled from the visions clawing at her mind.Dustin watched the group descend into chaos and frowned. Mirage's illusions were more insidious than he'd imagined. Besides creating large-scale environmental illusions, she also targeted every person's mind and conjured visions born from their own fears and desires. There was no defending against an enemy that attacked from within. If this continued, they would kill each other without their enemy lifting a finger.He unleashed another wave of divine sense, but it was far less effective this time. Her illusions had corrupted their minds, and a raw blast of his power wasn't enough to purge them."Close your eyes. Cover your
An Understated Dominance Chapter 2687
The illusion formation had been forcibly broken, though not completely destroyed. The guards, who had been lost in the illusion, gradually snapped back to reality. When they took in their actual surroundings and their fallen comrades lying in pools of blood, their faces went pale with horror."That illusion formation was terrifyingly real… It could so vividly reflect the desires of the human heart," Grace said, her voice trembling slightly. Her gratitude towards Dustin deepened.His sharp gaze darted toward the far end of the valley, where the only real spring shimmered in the distance. The air above it twisted and warped until a faint figure slowly took shape.It solidified into a woman of otherworldly, almost unsettling beauty. Dressed in rainbow robes, her body was an illusory form of coalescing light and fog.She hovered barefoot above the spring, surrounded by a haze of seductive energy that tugged at the mind. Her eyes were deep and bottomless, reflecting a thousand images
