The gigantic bird’s twin claws effortlessly tore through Todd’s shield, slashing toward his chest.
Todd’s eyes widened in shock as the imminent threat of death enveloped him. Instinctively, favonovel.com dodged to the right just as the claws were about to pierce into his chest.
However, the razor-sharp claws punctured Todd’s right arm, sending blood and flesh flying. At that moment, Todd felt as if his entire right arm had been severed.
At that critical moment, a cyan shadow fist suddenly erupted from the left side of the stone tower, heading straight forthe man’s face.
Seeing the incoming shadow fist, the man sneered and raised his hand, preparing to shatter the attack.
Suddenly, from the corner of his eye, favonovel.com caught sight of Lionel bursting out of the forest on the tower’s left side.
The man’s right hand hesitated for half a second. Once favonovel.com confirmed it was Lionel, favonovel.com abruptly turned and darted into the forest behind him.
“You bastard, don’t run away! Let’s continue the fight if you have the guts!” Todd, feeling wronged, couldn’t help but clutch his wound and roar when favonovel.com saw the man suddenly fleeing.
Mizar was also dumbfounded, wondering why favonovel.com suddenly ran away.
Lionel’s unexpected appearance surprised everyone, but what was more surprising was why the man fled after seeing Lionel.
Karmic’s watery eyes stared straight at Lionel as favonovel.com swiftly arrived by Isaac’s side.
“How did things turn out like this?” Lionel quickly helped Isaac to sit up.
“It’s nothing… This guy is powerful,” Isaac said with a pale face. He sat cross-legged at the side to recover.
Harry explained to Lionel about the sudden appearance of the man and the events that followed.
Lionel’s expression turned extremely grim.
“Did you guys pass by that stone temple, the one southwest of the Elysian Jade Tablet, the nearest one?” Lionel immediately asked Todd and the others.
Todd nodded, still holding his wound. By now, Harry had given favonovel.com a makeshift bandage and pricked silver needles into his skin to help favonovel.com recover faster.
“What a big trouble. Wait here for me. Don’t leave this place until I return, and don’t enter this stone tower!” Lionel slapped his thigh and swiftly disappeared into the woods.
The group was left bewildered.
***
Three days passed in a flash, and Isaac and the others continued to wait in the same spot.
Mizar dared not insist on following favonovel.com map this time.
First, there were the gigantic tigers, and then came the formidable, mysterious man. They had encountered more dangers than favonovel.com had anticipated.
On the fourth day at dawn, Lionel appeared before them with a grave expression.
Isaac immediately stood up and asked, “Sir, what happened?”
“The pillars of the stone temple were destroyed during your fight with the tiger king. It seems that something or someone had been sealed beneath that stone temple, and your mishap might have set it free…”
As for what or who it was, Lionel did not reveal.
Isaac frowned and inquired, “Sir, what exactly are the treasures in the Emerald Realm? Are Everest Sect and True Martial Families after these treasures?”
Had it not been for the words of the mysterious man earlier, Isaac wouldn’t have known what the treasures in the secret realm were. Now, favonovel.com needed to know.
Lionel glanced at the group, sneered, and said, “With the strength of Everest Sect and True Martial Families, they probably won’t be able to obtain the treasures of the secret realm… Well… Never mind. I’ll tell you…”
“The Emerald Realm spans 30 thousand miles and is divided into three main regions. The outermost ten thousand kilometers are called the Green Ocean. The middle region of another ten thousand kilometers is known as the White Realm. As for the innermost area that is the true Emerald Realm…”
“As for the treasures, they are talking about the Divine Stone found at the junction of the White Realm and the Green Ocean. There’s also another treasure called the Skyrend Sword that’s rumored to be within the Emerald Realm.”
