Chapter 1396
As soon as Kenneth finished speaking, Felix jumped down without hesitation. When it was just the three of them, Kenneth told Leah and Jean through telepathy, "He's one of the Ancient Sage's Eight Guardians with peak Grandmaster Realm power. Drop your little schemes and focus on completing this mission." After his warning, Kenneth jumped down as well. The twin sisters looked at each other helplessly before following. Their earlier display had been intended to show Felix they weren't a bluff—they had real power. They hadn't expected Kenneth to rebuke them for it. In the cave below, Felix looked around the roughly 30-foot-deep space with a thoughtful expression. Kenneth was likely the tomb expert. Without him, entering the cave would be challenging. This wasn't something someone could just force their way through with raw power. Even if the traps couldn't hurt them, failing to follow the proper procedures might trigger the tomb's self-destruct mechanisms, leaving them with nothi

Felix and the others found themselves in a straight corridor with stone walls on both sides and total darkness. With their power, they could see in the dark as clearly as in daylight, so they did not have to bring any flashlights. Felix kept his pace moderate. It was so that everyone could keep up and partly because he still wasn't sure how deadly the tomb's traps might be. "Mr. Willis, turn right after five steps. Trust me on this. The corridor's filled with Quadrant Mist that messes with your vision and senses." The stone wall was clearly visible five steps ahead. But after hearing Kenneth's advice, Felix turned and walked straight toward it. When his body touched the wall, he passed right through it like it wasn't even there.A strange whooshing sound cut through the air. Felix's hand shot up, catching an arrow that had flown at him from nowhere. "This arrow would kill anyone below Transcendent Realm!" His assessment was dead-on, judging by the arrow's power and speed. The

Felix was concerned. The traps were already so extreme at the entrance, so he wondered what waited deeper inside. "Run over there! Hurry!" Kenneth and the twins were professionals. When they heard Felix's words, they immediately sprinted forward at full speed. Once all three had reached safety and stopped moving, Felix took a deep breath. He withdrew his hands and shot through the closing gap. A massive sound erupted behind him. Though they hadn't experienced it before, the shockwave alone gave them a taste of the trap's power. "That force was equivalent to an attack from a martial artist who's reached the mastery of Transcendent Realm," Felix said. Hearing this, the sisters turned pale. They'd worked with Kenneth many times but never encountered anything this dangerous. Even royal tombs weren't this terrifying. Most alarming was that this belonged to merely one of Francis' descendants. What would Francis' own tomb be like? No wonder Kenneth had said he wouldn't dare enter

In that brief glance, the door slammed shut with a resounding bang. It left Leah and Jean standing there, stunned. Despite the urgency of the moment, they could have easily made it through before the door closed with their abilities. Yet, Kenneth had stopped them from going inside. "Mr. Zandro, why did you stop us?" Kenneth's eyes showed a hint of resignation. "I never expected to encounter the Stellar Hexagram! Remember when you asked why there were seven doors?" The sisters nodded simultaneously. Kenneth sighed. "The extra door is for sacrifice! Very few people can solve the Stellar Hexagram, and I'm one of them. "But whoever solves it must first open the sacrificial door and send someone through. Otherwise, the puzzle remains unsolvable." After a brief silence, Leah said, "But Mr. Zandro, we needed Mr. Willis' strength. Are you sure we should just abandon him?" Jean added, "Exactly. And with his power, what if he goes berserk and starts destroying everything? The whole

With a powerful palm strike through the air, Felix sent all seven liquid beings slamming against the hall's stone walls, reducing them to puddles. Looking around, he found no exit. The black stone slabs had solidified again, which made him wonder what danger would come next. In less than five seconds, Felix understood what was going on. The liquid reformed into human shapes and charged at him again. While he was punching and striking those creatures, he estimated about ten minutes had passed. He had smashed these creatures countless times, and they had reassembled just as many. They seemed endless. "This isn't working!"He noticed the black slabs liquefying again, producing seven more liquid beings. These liquid creatures weren't particularly fast and didn't seem to have any special attacks. They just wanted to get close to Felix, which led him to conclude that the black liquid itself was the real threat. He should not let them touch him.But this raised another problem. Wh
Chapter 1401
Somewhere in the tomb, Leah said while looking back at the collapsed section behind them, "The tomb of Francis' descendant really lives up to its reputation. That was way too close." Her face was filled with lingering fear. The three of them had lost all their earlier composure. They were now dusty and disheveled, showing just how difficult their journey had been. "Thankfully, Mr. Zandro's prediction was right. The challenges were things Jean and I could handle. Otherwise, we'd have been in serious trouble." Kenneth's face broke into a slight smile as he surveyed what lay ahead. "Looks like we've reached the main burial chamber." Hearing this, the twins quickly looked forward, their eyes lighting up with excitement. Where they stood was a spacious area with numerous round stone pillars seemingly supporting the entire space. In the center sat an enormous black coffin. "It's huge!" Both Leah and Jean were astounded. Judging by its size, the coffin could easily fit three peo

One of the twins said, "Looks like we didn't come away empty-handed, after all. I wonder what's special about this parchment." "Whatever it is, it's got nothing to do with you anymore." The sudden voice made all three quickly turn, their faces draining of color. Felix stepped out from the shadowy corner with an expressionless face. Clearly, Felix was still alive, and it was something none of them had expected. According to Kenneth, anyone sent through the sacrificial door would definitely die. Yet here he was, alive and well. Kenneth recovered quickly, his face suddenly brightening with feigned delight. "Mr. Willis! I'm so glad you're safe. We've been searching for you throughout the tomb." Felix laughed coldly. "Really? Then, I should thank you all." After jumping through the now-vanished black slab, Felix had landed in this chamber and immediately spotted the massive coffin. He figured this had to be the tomb owner's resting place, or at least somewhere Kenneth's group wo

Felix was dumbstruck. There was someone else here, yet a powerful martial artist like him hadn't even detected them. When he looked over, he saw a middle-aged woman standing behind Leah and Jean. She was even more elegant and refined than the twins. Right then, the twins had strange expressions on their faces. They were frozen in absolute terror, not daring to move a muscle. Felix immediately realized they weren't choosing not to move—they couldn't move at all. "Who are you?" Kenneth was stressed out. He had never met a stranger in a tomb before. And this person actually came alone. How could this be possible? Even the most powerful wouldn't dare enter a tomb by themselves. "Who am I? Well, let me introduce myself. I'm Mackenzie. Or in your terms, I'm an S-tier Malevolent Phantom."What? Felix and Kenneth gasped. Looking at the twin sisters who were nearly in tears, it made sense why they were instantly immobilized—this was the work of an S-tier Malevolent Phantom. But why
