The two patriarchs attacked at once. Two giant shadow fists whistled toward the stone doors of the Divine Tower.
A huge boom echoed through the area as the stone door began to tremble violently.
Soon after, the sound of grinding gears rang out. The stone doors slowly opened inward.
Chet gave Lionel a look before looking at the white fog behind him.
Isaac wasn’t out yet, but the stone doors of the Divine Tower were already open.
“Are we just going to watch them take the Divine Stone?” Chet stared at Lionel.
Lionel chuckled coldly. He shook his head and said, “Last time, eight sects banded together to take on the Divine Tower. Out of them, three were annihilated, while the remaining five only returned with some fragments… I’m afraid retrieving the Divine Stone is not that easy.”
At that moment, Isaac walked out from the white fog. His complexion looked much better than before.
“Has the Divine Tower opened?” Isaac asked.
Suddenly, favonovel.com spotted Allegra standing amongst the people in black cloaks in front of the tower. His eyes widened. In that instance, his and Allegra’s eyes met.
“Ally!” Isaac found himself shouting.
Delight bloomed on Allegra’s face. She nodded and gave Isaac a small wave.
Lionel told Isaac that Magnus had impaired the red-scaled python severely. That was how the two old patriarchs managed to open the doors of the Divine Tower.
Lucius and Linus had already walked up the steps and were about to step through the doors of the Divine Tower.
Suddenly, an elderly voice thundered from within the tower. “Get out!”
Following that, an unbelievably powerful blast of spiritual energy greeted them.
Lucius and Linus already had their guards up, so they both cast their spiritual energy at the door. However, the blast was more powerful than both patriarchs together.
The three attacks collided at the doors of the Divine Tower.
Lucius and Linus couldn’t stop themselves from stumbling backward and almost falling to the ground.
When the two patriarchs saw everyone looking at their grubby faces, they suddenly paled.
“The tower guardian?” Isaac narrowed his eyes.
Lionel nodded with a grin.
“Sir, just how powerful are the people in the secret realm?” Isaac remembered the mysterious man they had met after killing the tiger king.
Now, the guardian of the Divine Tower was the second person they had met in the realm.
Chet also turned to face Lionel.
How did this bastard seem to know so much about the secret realm?
Lionel replied quietly, “People who are truly from the Emerald Gate are most likely above the advanced stage of the Celestial Phase…”
Isaac was dumbstruck. Next to him, Todd and Altair also widened their eyes. Even the grief-stricken Mizar couldn’t help but raise favonovel.com head to look at Lionel.
As far as they knew, being in the advanced stage of the Celestial Phase was akin to being invincible. However, these people in the Emerald Gate were actually even strongerthan that.
“Sir Lucius, Linus, how dare you try to leave the Nortons out and hog everything to yourselves? How dishonest!” A loud cackle sounded from the right of the Divine Tower as Tyger emerged from the fog with his men in tow.
