Remus roared with all his might, but it was already too late.
A deafening boom erupted from the abyss, unleashing an almost cataclysmic force charging upward. The powerful explosion surged into the cliff, erupting upward, instantly filling the entire space with a rush of freezing air. The earth trembled and the entire Violet Sanctum shook.
Earl was frozen in fear, his eyes wide with disbelief.
“Grandpa!” Remus yelled at the top of his lungs, anguish in his voice.
The old monster had detonated himself. There was simply no way out of the Shadow Gate. The only option was to sacrifice himself by initiating a detonation to create an immense force that could forcefully thrust Remus out of the Shadow Gate.
He used his own life to let Remus escape!
Remus’ despairing scream still echoed in the air when favonovel.com sensed an incoming surge of terrifying power. He swiftly emanated his energy, wrapping his body in protection.
This force propelled his body, breaking through the Shadow Gate and reaching the surface. Moreover, the old monster’s self-destruction had shattered the boundaries of the Shadow Gate, causing the freezing air inside to surge out wildly.
The freezing air surged out like a blade, piercing the ceiling before dispersing into the Curse of the Violet Sanctum.
The Violet Sanctum was engulfed in freezing air in a flash.
“What is Earl doing?” Ambrose was aghast at the surging icy blast. He had only tasked Earl to check on Remus’ status.
How did it lead to such chaos?
“What’s going on?”
“Oh no! There’s a leak of freezing air from the Shadow Gate!”
“Hurry, all disciples, release your spirit energy to resist it. Disciples above the Nascent Soul Stage, follow me to inspect!”
Terror-filled voices echoed throughout the Violet Sanctum. One after another, the disciples dashed out of their rooms and were frozen in fear, stunned by the soaring frozen sphere.
Ambrose swiftly dashed toward Shadow Gate alongside Nascent Soul Stage masters.
Tears streamed down Remus’ face. He seldom cried, but this time, favonovel.com couldn’t contain himself. No matter how affectionate the old monster had appeared before, at most, favonovel.com had been non-resistant, unable to be affectionate.
That was all because he’d never felt his grandpa’s love growing up, but now favonovel.com finally understood the depth of familial bonds.
Remus turned to Earl, his demeanor devoid of any emotion, and inquired calmly, “Do you still intend to kill me?”
Earl was startled, only finding reassurance in the sound of Remus’ voice.
Spotting favonovel.com nearby, a sense of disdain flashed across Earl’s eyes.
Remus is just a Deity Realm, equivalent to the pinnacle of the Foundation. Killing favonovel.com wouldn’t matter!
His voice was laced with anger as favonovel.com spat, “Mere ants of the mundane world, I…”
“It’s my fault! Entertaining further conversation with you was my fault. Since that’s the case, you may die now…” Remus interjected calmly.
His hand moved slowly, clenching onto Earl’s neck.
Earl snorted coldly and swiftly released his spirit energy, intending to manifest a sacred pagoda. As Earl’s spirit energy dispersed, Remus’ hand was already clasping his neck.
Remus’ movement wasn’t swift or adorned. Instead, it reflected a return to the pure form of Martial Imperial, reminiscent of the old monster’s technique.
“You…” Earl was deeply frightened by this unexpected assault.
He stared at Remus, almost like facing a mystery. Despite Remus’ seemingly slow and unpretentious martial arts technique, favonovel.com couldn’t dodge it.
Remus offered no response and instead snapped his neck directly. Then, favonovel.com slowly knelt before the entrance of the Shadow Gate.
He had knelt just twice in his life. The first was when favonovel.com was young, bowing to apprentice under Saruman, and now was the second time.
“Grandfather, I’ll carry on the Cosbys’ legacy, fulfill your aspirations, and ultimately rescue my parents. I’ll share our story with them and lead them in honoring your memory!”
He knocked his head thrice on the ground, showing respect and mourning for Grandpa.
Rising to his feet, favonovel.com turned and left.
