Chapter 1378 Collapse
Naturally, Jared was delighted. After making sure Jared was all right, Flaxseed glanced around. Besides the white marble chair, there was nothing else there.
“This is strange. Is there anything special about this white marble throne?” Flaxseed said as he plopped down on the throne. “No!” Jared thundered to stop Flaxseed.
His previous experience nearly tortured him to death, so he did not want Flaxseed to experience the same thing, too. Alas, it was too late. Flaxseed had already sat down.
After sitting down, Flaxseed moved around a few times, but nothing out of the ordinary happened. No light shone on him. As nothing happened, Jared heaved a sigh of relief. Looks like the white marble chair can only be activated once.
“Jared, what happened when you sat down earlier?” Flaxseed inquired. Jared did not want to lie to him, so he honestly revealed everything he saw to Flaxseed.
After hearing that, Flaxseed gaped incredulously. “Let me look at your sword,” he requested. That was the first time he had ever heard of something like this.
Jared obediently handed Dragonslayer Sword to Flaxseed. Once Flaxseed’s hand came in contact with the sword, it started buzzing loudly. Flaxseed immediately tossed it away.
“D*mn it! Why is it burning? I almost got scalded!” he declared in surprise.
Confused, Jared picked Dragonslayer Sword up and did not find anything wrong with it.
“It isn’t burning,” Jared uttered as he gave the sword to Flaxseed again.
This time, Flaxseed dared not take the sword. Waving his hands, he stated, “Forget it. Looks like lady luck is on your side. I got nothing here this time.”
He did not bother hiding his disappointment. When they used the Verdant Ganoderma to cultivate, Jared absorbed all the spiritual energy. Now, Jared even inherited a sword technique and got a sword spirit!
I got nothing and was even wounded earlier. What a huge loss!
Jared flashed an awkward smile. “Should we continue searching around? There might be magical items elsewhere.” He tried to comfort Flaxseed.
Before Flaxseed could say anything, they both heard a loud rumble.
The entire ancient tomb started shaking violently.
“Oh, no. It is going to collapse! We need to leave now.” Flaxseed’s expression changed.
He immediately led Jared out.
Back in Crimson Palace, Cecilia and the rest were on full alert.
The entire Crimson Palace was shaking, but she had no idea what was going on.
“Cecilia, is there an earthquake?” Millie asked.
“I’m not sure. Everyone, be careful,” Cecilia remarked sternly.
She was not worried that something would happen to Crimson Palace. On the contrary, she was worried about Jared. They went in a couple of days ago but hadn’t come out yet. The place is shaking, so I’m afraid he’s in trouble.
Fortunately, the shaking soon came to a stop.
A ripple spread across the illusion spell that Flaxseed placed in Crimson Palace.
At once, Cecilia’s jaw dropped in shock, for that meant that someone was trying to break through the illusion spell outside to barge into Crimson Palace.
“There’s an intruder! Put your guards up!” Cecilia barked out an order.
Every disciple in Crimson Palace immediately went on full alert.
Boom!
The illusion spell was soon destroyed, exposing Crimson Palace to the naked eye.
Outside the door, Tobias and his men were waiting to attack Crimson Palace.
After Tobias got wounded by the ambush when he was fighting against Jared, he could barely tamp down his fury.
The moment his body recovered completely, he immediately came all the way here to avenge himself. He wanted to take revenge against Jared.
