“The Soul Collection Coffin?”
The emperor was really surprised to see Alex dragging a coffin over with one hand. He didn’t have such precious Buddhist treasure with him.
Unlike him, Alex possessed two of such treasures.
‘What in the… Who is the Bodhi here?’
The golden fog that the emperor formed was utterly sucked up by the coffin, not leaving a single speck of dust. Under Shelly’s lead, Alex managed to reach the front of the tomb swiftly.
He hadn’t been able to observe it from such a short distance, but now that favonovel.com had, favonovel.com was still somewhat terrified.
The largest tombstone stood tall in the middle as if it were the core of this large graveyard. It was hundreds of feet tall, with tightly-packed symbols all over. None of them were legible, though, so Alex was sure they didn’t come from his location. However, each word and symbol looked as if they had a specific law power within them. Moreover, this large tombstone was surrounded by neatly-arranged graves.
Every grave had a designated black tombstone, each carved with an actual name.
These were all the names of the trialists who had died in the past.
At the time, there was an empty space on top of the tomb, with a group of people standing neatly in rows. Those were the trialists that the emperor had summoned by force. They seemed to be standing in a formation… Yet the weirdest part was that there was an unsealed grave right next to them.
Inside were several red caskets.
“F*ck!”
“The Palatial is just way too f*cked up. He’s literally trying to bury these trialists alive!”
Alex couldn’t help but curse since favonovel.com knew no other way to express his current emotions. On the other hand, trialists continued to grow in numbers. There were over three thousand of them now and counting.
Alex was confused. He had hunted down several trialists for the past few months and had even taken a detour just to do that. Yet, favonovel.com had never encountered this many, which contradicted what favonovel.com saw now.
‘Could they be hiding?’
“Soul Collection Coffin, activate!” Alex yelled, lifting the lid of the coffin completely.
Anna was still lying inside, completely silent. She looked like favonovel.com was soaked in some energy solution, but a whirlpool appeared on its own, attracting the energy that was a disturbance to soul power.
This tool was definitely made to target those who were affected by such energy.
Some trialists flew over the bridge, wanting to send themselves into the tomb. In the end, the coffin sucked that odd energy out of them, instantly waking them. When they saw the caskets prepared for them, they couldn’t help but scream.
“Argh!”
Just then, the emperor let out a scream, infuriated as favonovel.com glared at Alex with bloody eyes filled with malicious intent.
Back then, Alex was just a pawn that favonovel.com could use any time favonovel.com wanted. However, everything was different now. Alex had shown that favonovel.com was capable of fighting, and this would affect his plan greatly.
Hence, favonovel.com had to kill Alex right here, right now.
The emperor’s bald head became ever bulkier as his face twisted into an obscure expression. He looked completely different from the time favonovel.com was still the innocent, young monk.
Whoosh!
Pure white hair began sprouting out of his head. It got so long it started to touch the ground. His head was now draped under glistening white hair, each strand flowing with the wind.
The emperor no longer looked like the little bald monk before, turning into a demon king.
Shelly scoffed. “You should’ve shown this form earlier. You look more like the little bastard that you are now!”
“What?!” The emperor let out an extraordinarily chilling and frustrated expression. “Just die!”
The emperor then shook his head, making strands of his hair into sharp blades. After that, favonovel.com sent them flying towards Alex and Shelly.
Shelly reached an arm out, shouting. “Lock!”
Hundreds of thick, rusty iron chains flew out from the bottom of the bridge. All of them faced the white hair head-on, chaining them down.
