This⦠The insane speed and large surface of the palm made it impossible to dodge!
Buzzâ¦
Dorothy Assex fired an arrow, and her spiritual energy caused an explosion. However, it was
ineffective.
If ghost kings were equal to Nascent Soul cultivators, then ghost emperors were equal to Profound
Mystic cultivators that were even more powerful. How could they beat that?
âVanguard Incantation!â Freya Mayer pulled out her Dragon Soul Wood.
She was prepared to use her family bloodlineâs advantage to suppress the ghost emperor.
Unfortunately, before she could finish her incantation, she was crushed to the ground by the huge
pressure upon her.
This scene dumbfounded the people in the passageway. Waltz Fleur and Maya Howards found it hard
to even breathe.
âMystic Armor!â At the crucial moment of life and death, Alex Rockefellerâs remnant Chaos Bead in his
mind palace finally reacted.
Buzz!
After a vibration, a tremendous force surrounded Alexâs entire body.
It effortlessly blocked the ghost emperorâs bloody palm. In fact, it had even destroyed the bloody palm.
The pressure on Dorothy Assex and Freyaâs bodies was instantly relieved.
âRun!â Dorothy shouted.
There was no chance of defeating the ghost emperor. They couldnât even fight back.
The three of them instantly ran into the passageway.
âStop! Itâs a cliff with a dead end on!â Kenneth Sunder frantically shouted.
âWhat?!â
The three of them were all stunned.
Meanwhile, the ghost emperor locked its gaze on Alex. It couldnât seem to figure out why a tiny being
like Alex was able to block his bloody palm. This wasnât supposed to happen.
After a casual tap, black threads flew out from his hand. The black threads rolled and tangled together
before quickly charging over and instantly surrounding Alexâs body. Alex was pulled back to the ghost
emperor.
âAlex!â Dorothy shouted in surprise.
She couldnât let anything happen to Alex, and she instantly wanted to run over. However, Freya hugged
her and stopped her. âDonât go. Do you want to get yourself killed?â
âDonât stop me. Get out of the way!â Dorothy shouted.
Freya couldnât possibly stop Dorothy. She was instantly sent flying away by Dorothy.
Dorothy rushed forward and made a gesture with her fingers. She was activating a secret spell. This
secret spell was a forbidden type of spell.
At her current stage of Core Formation, she wasnât supposed to use it. The consequences were
severe. Best case scenario, her cultivation might be ruined. In the worst case scenario, she might
directly die.
However, now that Alex was captured, his life was at risk. Dorothy couldnât care anymore.
In the end, before she could even cast her secret spell, the ghost emperor seemed to sense the danger
Dorothy posed. It immediately acted first by slamming its palm against her.
Boom!
It slapped Dorothy directly into the ground. A huge, deep pit was formed.
After that, it ignored Dorothy. Its eyes the size of two water tanks stared atAlex up close. âThereâs
something odd in your body. It feels familiar,â it said.
Although Alex couldnât move his body, he could still speak.
With concern, Alex glanced at Dorothy in the pit. âHow about a deal?â Alex asked.
âWhat deal?â
âUh⦠What would you like? I can help you,â Alex said.
âWhat do I want? My body has been turned into a zombie. I want a body,â it said.
âAre you Caesar?â Alex was stunned.
The ghost emperor snorted. âThatâs right. It is I!â
Alex gulped. âAbout that, how did you end up like this? Why were you trapped in a coffin?â
When Caesar heard this, he became enraged.
It seemed that he wasnât willing to reenact the past.
âWho are you to ask a question like this?â Caesar asked.
âYour body really does feel strange. What is it?â
âHmph! Iâll go in and check it out myself!â
This fellow couldnât be bothered to speak with a pest like Alex. He instantly turned into a puff of black
smoke and rushed into his mind palace.
He wanted to personally see what the odd thing inside Alexâs body was.
