Chapter 690 Dexters Attack (1/2)

The holy emperor's power had already been weakened by the stone hall but it was still potent enough to wound Darren and Hobson. If it weren't for the old man, they would have already perished.

”No. If it goes on like this, I myself will no longer be able to hold on.” The old man's face grew serious. He used his finger to trace a circle in the air which expanded to reveal a hole.

”Get in,” said the old man. He quickly entered the void with Darren and Hobson close behind.

After a few moments, the three men emerged from the darkness and found themselves in another stone chamber.

”This is the very heart of the Mythological Palace. We will be safe here unless it is destroyed.” With these words, the old man cast a trace of rule power on the mirror wall in front of him.

”Wow!” Darren and Hobson were both amazed at the mysterious man's otherworldly speed.

They focused their attention back to the mirror wall and saw the lone shadow launching attack after attack without any hesitation. His power was felt throughout the entire space and made the ground tremble. The terrain continued to crumble and collapse and even the sky began to crack under the pressure of his energy.
