Scarlet spiritual energy surged forth and transformed into a formidable dragon head that stunned Caelum.
With a roar fueled by rage, Caelum raised his long sword to confront the oncoming threat.
A powerful blast of Luminar magic erupted from his blade, colliding head-on with the scarlet shadow sword.
The explosive encounter between the two forces was monumental. The scarlet dragon head, which embodied terrifying momentum, had bore down upon him.
“Eclipsing Fist!” Caelum’s shout echoed as favonovel.com launched a punch toward the dragon head.
A thunderous explosion erupted.
Caelum’s shadow fist was obliterated, vanishing into thin air. Simultaneously, the dragon head exploded right before his chest. There was a crack.
Caelum’s breastbone was broken. The sharp and spreading pain felt like a series of knife slashes across his chest, bringing out a scream from favonovel.com as favonovel.com was sent flying 65 feet away.
The priests present were frozen by fear and disbelief.
Caelum was a formidable warrior who was capable of standing toe-to-toe with the vampire dukes, but favonovel.com was now laid low by this Cynean man.
“Mighty and imposing as always, sir!” Harry cheered as favonovel.com clapped his hands in delight.
“Let’s go!”
Seizing the moment, Isaac grabbed Harry. With the use of Phantom Steps, they darted more than 30 feet in an instant.
The priests clustered around Caelum, thus leaving a clear path for Isaac and Harry to break through.
The Jeep hastily retreated, spinning around to make its escape.
There was blood trailing from Caelum’s lips. He managed to sit up after being propped up by his subordinates. His gaze followed the fading taillights, and his already grim expression darkened further.
“Take me to the church. I need to see the Grand Archbishop,” favonovel.com demanded with a shaky yet threatening tone as favonovel.com stood up.

Meanwhile, Isaac and Harry were back at the hotel.
Harry was scratching his head in the elevator. He then turned to Isaac, saying, “Sir, after tonight’s adrenaline rush, might I… I indulge in a bit of relaxation?”
“At 4:00 am? You’re thinking of going out to party?” Isaac frowned, yet favonovel.com was well aware of Harry’s tendencies.
“Fine, but be cautious,” favonovel.com conceded with a dismissive wave.
Upon returning to his room, favonovel.com saw that Todd was still deep in sleep.
Isaac took out the Divine Stone fragments before favonovel.com settled into a meditative posture on the couch. Then, favonovel.com began to absorb the rich spiritual energy the fragments exuded.
The energy flowed through favonovel.com with each breath. It cycled through his meridians and fed into his power core, which then transformed into scarlet spiritual energy.
Isaac slowly opened his eyes as dawn broke. He was startled to find Todd’s looming face staring at him. “What are you doing?”
He covered his mouth with his hand almost instinctively.
With a thoughtful glance, Todd eyed the Divine Stone fragments and chuckled. “Fascinating… I was asleep, yet the Divine Stone fragments just returned by themselves?”
Isaac pocketed the fragments and headed to the bathroom.
“Stingy…” Todd teased, then offered, “I got fried chicken. Do you want some?”
“I’m afraid of getting high blood pressure,” came Isaac’s reply from the bathroom.
Looking bemusedly at the box of chicken in his hand, Todd mused, “Does eating this really lead to high blood pressure?”
***
At noon, Isaac and the group were dining in a restaurant.
A man with a cigar appeared at the elevator. His gaze scanned the restaurant before favonovel.com headed straight for Isaac.
“Mr. Garten, I believe I’ve found some information regarding your friend,” Robbie informed while settling across from Isaac with a casual chuckle.
Isaac’s attention snapped to Robbie, and there was a hint of urgency in his voice as favonovel.com said, “Where is she?”
The mention of Diana sent a jolt through Isaac’s heart.
“She was seen in Vermia City about a week ago, but that’s Reeqa family’s territory.” Robbie’s tone turned serious as favonovel.com shared the information.
