Semua Bab An Understated Dominance: Bab 2671 - Bab 2680

Thymaleon, weakened from reassembling his body, transformed into a dim streak of white light and flew toward a hidden valley in the southeast.Under the moonlight, his figure no longer looked transcendent and graceful. Instead, he appeared hurried and disheveled. He passed through layers of primitive jungle shrouded in eerie mist and swept over several marshes lurking with dangerous presences. Finally, he reached his destination.The valley's entrance was blocked by dense vines and bizarre stone formations. Unless someone knew the path, they would never be able to find it.Thymaleon chanted an obscure incantation. His fingertips barely gathered a trace of light, which he pressed into the empty air. As the ripples spread outward, the vines and stones twisted and vanished, revealing a narrow opening just wide enough for one person.The cave inside was deep and dark. Strange gemstones embedded in the stone walls on both sides emitted a soft, white glow, illuminating the way forwar

After leaving the lakeside carnage, Dustin, Grace, and the group moved with extreme caution. They threaded their way carefully through the dense, treacherous jungle.The dangers of Elysium Isle far surpassed anything they'd imagined. Harmless-looking shrubs could suddenly whip out barbed tendrils, and vibrant flowers spewed clouds of paralyzing pollen. Even the soil underfoot might collapse without warning into churning quicksand ready to devour them whole.Fortunately, Dustin, a man whose strength seemed limitless, was there to lead them. He seemed to sense danger before it struck, handling each threat with effortless ease and guiding the group safely through one deadly encounter after another.After traveling for roughly a day and a night, the landscape suddenly opened up before them.A vibrant green grove stretched before them. Slender trunks rose straight and tall, leaves rustling gently in a light mist. The air smelled fresh and clean. It was a sharp contrast to the dangers th

After leaving the eerie forest, Grace and her group followed the elderly man's directions and headed southeast.The deeper they went into the grove, the denser the fog became. The leaves no longer rustled with their pleasant sound. Instead, an unsettling stillness hung in the air. The faint, fresh scent of the woods carried an underlying trace of something sickly sweet."Ms. Linsor, can we really trust what that elderly man said?" Judith asked, lowering her voice and glancing around warily.Grace shook her head, her expression tense. "It's hard to tell, but this is the only clue we have," she replied.If Dustin, a terrestrial immortal realm powerhouse, hadn't been with them, she never would have dared take the risk.After about an hour of walking, they finally spotted the deep canyon that the elderly man had told them about.The entrance was narrow, flanked by towering black cliffs that seemed to have been carved with giant blades. Not a single plant grew on the barren rock walls

"I won't let you complete that attack!" Dustin roared.His gaze hardened, and he no longer held back. The mystical pure energy inside him surged like a raging river as he channeled it into his longsword.The sword let out a sharp hum as cyan light flared along its edge. A massive 100-foot-long spectral blade materialized above his head, condensing to a tangible solidity."Cut it down!"With a sweep of his fingers, the massive energy blade descended with devastating force toward the beast still charging its energy sphere.Before the sword came crashing down, its overwhelming sword aura locked down the space around the beast, leaving it with no room to escape.The flying beast sensed the lethal threat, and its single eye widened in terror. The energy sphere in its mouth hadn't reached maximum power, but it was forced to spit it out early to meet the massive cyan energy blade.An even more devastating explosion erupted. The entire canyon trembled as if on the verge of collapse.Th

The dark spear in the humanoid beast's hand was the first to disintegrate into wisps of black smoke, followed by its arms, torso, and head. One by one, each fragment crumbled away.In less than a second, it completely disintegrated into countless drifting crimson specks and fine dust. Even the two points of scarlet flame were extinguished entirely.The crushing pressure that had filled the canyon vanished. Only Dustin remained, standing with his sword still raised. His breathing was slightly labored in the dead silence that followed."Mr. Rhys won! He won," the onlookers exclaimed in delight.Grace let out a long sigh of relief, her tense nerves finally relaxing.But before the cheers had even died down, something strange happened again. Out of nowhere, something stirred in the dead silence, cutting the victory short.The crimson specks in the canyon that hadn't fully dispersed seemed to be drawn by some invisible force. Instead of fading into nothing like ordinary energy, they b
