Chapter 1878 The Mystery Of The Chief Gods (Part One) (1/2)

As the old man slowly rose higher, the stone tablet seemed to have suddenly become as heavy as a world and pressed down on him.

”Let me help, sir!”

As he said this, Darren flew over and grabbed the stone tablet's edges with both hands. When he found purchase, he pulled it with all his strength.

Darren roared and grunted with effort.

”Ah!” he shouted as he pulled and pulled.

He only stopped when his arms were cramping up from the exertion.

However, the stone tablet had not even budged!

The Archean power was supposed to help Darren lift objects that were trillions of pounds heavier than him, but the stone tablet's weight far exceeded his strength.

Darren couldn't believe it!

”Young man, get out of the way. I'll do it myself,” the old man muttered weakly.

With a reluctant nod, Darren withdrew his hold on the stone tablet and stepped back.

The old man put his hands on the ground again, visibly gathering his strength.

Then, he uttered a loud groan as he tried to lift himself up.

He looked like he was in a lot of pain, and his body shook all over as if the exertion was taking a toll on him.

”Rise!”

the old man yelled out through gritted teeth.
