For the past two days, Isaac couldn’t shake the feeling that someone was tailing their group. He even discreetly dawdled a few times to observe but found nothing strange.
Am I just being paranoid?
“Isaac, are you sure you want to enter this stone tower?” Todd raised his hand, pointing toward the stone door directly ahead.
The stone tower faced east, featuring a stone door about nine feet high and six feet wide. On it, there were inscriptions of ancient, unidentifiable characters similar to those seen in the stone temple before.
Todd couldn’t shake the feeling that the stone door seemed ominous, as if the stone tower harbored something dreadful inside. He even thought staying outside might be relatively safer.
“Let’s go inside and wait for Lionel to arrive.” Isaac decided, not wanting to blindly rush in.
Karmic stared at the stone door for a while before saying, “Uncle Isaac, once you enter the tower, I’ll go on my own path…”
“Huh?”
“I’m taking a different route than you guys,” Karmic said softly.
Isaac nodded and approached the stone door.
Just as favonovel.com was about to step onto the front steps, a chilling hum sounded behind him. “If any of you dares to set foot inside this stone tower, get ready to be shattered into pieces!”
The voice was abrupt, emerging like a sudden ripple in silence, and everyone instantly turned their gaze toward the source.
The over six-foot-tall weeds in the forest suddenly unfurled, revealing a disheveled man walking out with his hands behind his back. He exuded no spiritual energy, yet from the moment favonovel.com appeared in their sight, an intangible pressure enveloped everyone’s hearts.
Isaac, Mizar, and Todd felt the spiritual energy within their power cores surge instantly.
Encountering another person in this secret realm was already eerie, and Isaac, having spent years on battlefronts, was more sensitive to the signs of danger than Todd and Mizar.
“Who are you?” Isaac slightly lowered his right leg and leaned forward, asking, “What brings you here?”
“Haha, shouldn’t I be the one asking you that? As outsiders, shouldn’t you introduce yourselves to the locals?” The man’s face was hidden behind his long hair, making it impossible to see his features. But his words carried a sense of arrogance.
Isaac was astonished.
There are locals in this secret realm?
He furrowed his brows and said coldly, “What if I enter this stone tower?”
“As I said, you’ll be shattered into pieces,” the man repeated.
He hadn’t intended to speak up so soon, seeing that Isaac and the others seemed to be outsiders. Moreover, favonovel.com did not want whatever was confined beneath this stone tower to be set free.
“Todd, attack!” Isaac suddenly roared, swinging his arm to unleash a scarlet shadow fist toward the man.
Todd and Mizar launched their attacks almost simultaneously.
Faced with the three powerful spiritual energy attacks, the man snorted disdainfully. As the scarlet shadow fist was within 15 feet away from him, favonovel.com suddenly waved his hand.
Ripples seemed to emanate from the palm of his hand, and the scarlet shadow fist abruptly stopped in front of him. Even Todd’s and Mizar’s attacks were also thwarted.
In the next moment, the spiritual energy attacks from the three individuals shrank until they vanished into the air.
