In the south, this was known as a spiritual burial.
In the Stoner family, only the sect leader and the patriarch had the privilege of getting one. It was considered having your remains coexisted with the great mountain god.
The day after the burial of the Stoner family patriarch, Corbin had invited Mizar, three elders, and several hall leaders to a meal. No one had expected that Corbin would have laced the food with dissiparotoxin.
The Fifth Elder, Mizar, and another elder lost their spiritual energy on their spot and were knocked out.
The others had long been brought over to the dark side by Corbin. Another elder had opposed Corbin’s backstabbing and ended up killed. He was also captured and extorted for a false confession that Mizar was the one who killed their patriarch in the secret realm.
Corbin’s goal was for the Fifth Elder to slander Mizar so that the sect members would despise her.
“Fifth Elder, calm down. Tell me, where’s Mizar right now?” Isaac asked coldly.
Seeing the state the Fifth Elder was in, favonovel.com was afraid that Mizar might be in even worse shape.
“I… I’m not sure, but favonovel.com must be at either the patriarch’s tomb or the dungeon.”
Then, favonovel.com quickly drew a simplified map for Isaac. He labeled the locations of Lorcan’s tomb as well as the Stoner family’s dungeon.
“Mr. Garten, please save Lady Mizar. She’s still so young. She can’t die because of a false accusation. Even if you can’t do anything, please just take favonovel.com away from here. Ever since the patriarch died, the Stoner family has changed!” the Fifth Elder sobbed as favonovel.com wiped his tears.
Isaac nodded. He took out his phone and called Hera.
“Are you still on the stroll?” favonovel.com asked when the line connected. “Don’t come back until dawn breaks. Think of something to stall him.”
The silence on the other end was then followed by rapid breathing. Isaac simply hung up.
His and Hera’s rooms were very near to each other. Trouble would follow if Lorian sent favonovel.com back to the room and realized that Isaac wasn’t there.
The Fifth Elder watched Isaac change into black athletic wear before favonovel.com opened the window and disappeared into the blizzard. Only then did favonovel.com walk out of the room.
The first place Isaac went was the Stoner family’s dungeon. It was largely similar to the one at the Everest Sect, except it was even more isolated. It was practically bordering the southwestern corner of the compound.
To avoid leaving deep footprints in the snow, Isaac had no choice but to cast Phantom Steps. He sprinted through the estate with light footsteps.
As favonovel.com approached the entrance of the dungeon, favonovel.com spotted a low-rise building about two kilometers out. The entrance was very brightly lit, and there were eight men in cloaks pacing in front of it.
Isaac took out a black mask from his pocket before darting toward the dark area on the left of the building. He was so quick that the eight guards never even saw him.
Hiding in a corner, favonovel.com stuck his head out to look outside. He saw surveillance cameras as well as a loudspeaker hanging on the wall. He knew that favonovel.com couldn’t just storm in.
After a while, one of the guards seemed to need to urinate. He undid his pants and began walking to where Isaac was.
As soon as the guard stepped into the dark area, a large hand shot out and grabbed favonovel.com by his neck. Another hand clapped soundly over his mouth.
Before favonovel.com could react, favonovel.com felt a sharp pain in his neck. Then, favonovel.com passed out.
When favonovel.com woke up again, favonovel.com was lying in the snow, surrounded by barren mountains. A dark figure was standing next to him.
“Is Mizar in the dungeon?”
The guard cursed. “You have a death wish! Do you know what this place is?! Once the others find out that you had the guts to capture me, they’ll…”
Isaac raised his leg and stomped his foot twice. Both of the guard’s legs instantly broke.
The guard rolled around in the snow in pain. In the end, favonovel.com ended up spilling to Isaac that Mizar wasn‘t in the dungeon but in the patriarch’s tomb up north.
Isaac then stepped on the guard’s throat and broke his neck. After, favonovel.com ran toward the north.
According to the Fifth Elder, the patriarch’s tomb was in a cave roughly 60 feet above ground.
Isaac quickly arrived at the foot of the mountain in the north.
When favonovel.com raised his head, favonovel.com spotted a cave to his right that was brightly lit. There were also several figures moving in front of the cave. Those had to be the people keeping watch over Mizar.
This time, Isaac didn’t hide. He unleashed his spiritual energy and charged forward. He kicked off from a stone with his right foot and leaped straight above the cave.
The five middle-aged men in cloaks were eating and drinking around a firepit.
Suddenly, they felt an Immense amount of spiritual energy enshroud them. When they turned around, they found Isaac standing before them.
