Chapter 405: The Wrath of the Heavenly God, Saint Marie in the Hill of Swords
“Phyllis, don’t be afraid!”
“Don’t be afraid!”
“Daddy is here, nothing will happen!”
In the pitch black darkness where he could not see his own fingers, Sean was filled with towering anger, his face cold as ice, yet he still spoke to Phyllis in a very gentle tone, hugging Phyllis tightly in his arms and patting her slightly trembling back!
After a while!
Sean took out his phone and turned on the flashlight function. Light spread out and the cave was suddenly illuminated again!
To be safe!
Sean did not act alone, but held Phyllis with his left hand and Cecilia with his right, keeping the mother and daughter by his side. With the light from his phone, he took big steps toward the iron gate about ten meters away on the opposite side!
Sure enough!
When he arrived in front of the iron gate, Sean put Phyllis down, reached out his left hand, touched the thick iron gate, and found that it was made of snowy cold iron, just as he had anticipated!
The cold iron gate!
In fact!
This was easy to understand!
The caves of Hill of Swords were excavated by the ancestors of the major families of Swordland. The mechanisms and traps in the caves were also set up by them, simply to prevent outsiders from forcibly entering the Hill of Swords caves!
Or! Use the mechanisms and traps in the caves to eradicate dissidents!
And! Most of the people who could enter the Hill of Swords caves were dark energy cultivators. In order to trap and kill dark energy cultivators alive in the caves, only the cold iron gates could be used!
After all! Even consummate dark energy cultivators simply did not have the ability to break open these cold iron gates with their bare hands. Once trapped inside the caves, they could only obediently wait for death!
It just so happened that Sean had already broken through to the Complete Stage and entered the Bright Realm. The Bright Realm had tremendous destructive power against cold iron. So while the cold iron gate could trap others, it could not trap Sean!
“You bastards!”
“Just you wait for me!!!”
Gnashing his teeth with a cold snort, Sean was already filled with an extremely strong killing intent towards Ernest Mason and others. He turned back with Cecilia and Phyllis, sent the mother and daughter back to the deepest part of the cave, and gave the phone to Phyllis, gently instructing: “Phyllis, don’t be afraid, be good. Stay here with mom, dad will go open that door and take you out!”
The destructive power of Bright Energy was too great. Naturally, Cecilia and Phyllis could not be around when he made his move later, lest the collapsing mountain rocks above crush and injure the mother and daughter!
“Ok!”
Phyllis gritted her teeth, held back her tears, held Cecilia’s hand, and nodded, “Dad, do your best!”
“I’m not afraid!”
In the dim light, the forced look of courage on Phyllis’ face fell into Sean’s eyes, making his heart sour involuntarily!
“Phyllis is amazing!”
Sean leaned over and kissed Phyllis on the forehead, then resolutely got up and walked to the cold iron gate, unhesitatingly aroused the majestic Bright Energy in his core and channeled it into his right fist, then fiercely threw a punch at the cold iron gate in front of him!
Boom!
The next moment!
A deafening explosion suddenly sounded in this small cave, the movement was very loud, like a mountain collapse, and the surrounding rock walls shook violently. Gravel fell from the ceiling like rain, and the cold iron gate was punched by Sean, leaving a huge dent!
And! The center of the dent was punched through!
With one punch, he punched through the cold iron gate!
Such was the terrifying explosive power of a Bright Realm expert!!!
Boom!
After the first punch, Sean continued without stopping, immediately throwing another punch to further expand the hole!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
With five consecutive punches, the as solid as iron cold iron gate had been punched into a mess by Sean, unrecognizable. The huge hole could easily accommodate an adult to pass through!!!
However!
Before Sean could even catch his breath after completely punching through the cold iron gate, almost at the very next moment after his last punch landed, there was another loud bang from behind him, exactly the same as the sound when the mechanism was activated and the cold iron gate suddenly rose from the ground before!
Boom!
Damn it!
Sean’s heart skipped a beat, his expression changed drastically. He turned around at the first moment to see that seven or eight meters behind him, that was, between him and Cecilia and Phyllis, another identical cold iron gate had risen from the rock below the ground, shooting up at lightning speed, separating him and mother and daughter Cecilia and Phyllis on both sides of the iron gate!
Whoosh!
In shock, Sean didn’t even have time to think. He immediately turned into a shadow, frantically rushing towards the cold iron gate that had just emerged, rushing towards Cecilia and Phyllis!
How fast was Sean’s speed?
Unfortunately! It was a pity that Sean was completely unprepared. By the time he noticed, it was already too late!
So! Just as Sean rushed to the cold iron gate, the entire cave was completely sealed by the cold iron gate. And right before it was completely sealed, Phyllis’ frightened cry came from the other side of the cold iron gate: “Dad!”
“Dad, save me!”
“Woo woo woo… I’m scared…”
“I’m scared!”
“I lied to you just now, I’m afraid…”
“…”
The rest was blocked by the cold iron gate and couldn’t be heard!!!
At the same time!
The entire cave began to shake violently again, just like before, like an earthquake. It was as if the Hill of Swords was about to collapse!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Phyllis’ cries made the towering anger in Sean’s heart surge even more. In an instant, Sean’s eyes turned blood red. He raised his fist and smashed it heavily on the cold iron gate in front of him!
With one breath, blasting three consecutive punches! Directly punching a pot lid sized hole in the cold iron gate!
Immediately after!
Whoosh!
Sean turned into a shadow, rushing through the hole in the cold iron gate, into the deepest part of the cave to rescue Cecilia and Phyllis!
“Phyllis!!!”
From the sudden appearance of the cold iron gate to Sean breaking in, it was no more than five seconds at most!
However! In just these short five seconds, an inexplicable scene appeared. When Sean rushed in, Phyllis’ cries could no longer be heard inside!
Not only that! Where were Phyllis and Cecilia???
Gone!
Fucking gone!
In the darkness, Sean quickly searched every corner, but could not find any trace of Phyllis and Cecilia at all. Even spreading out the Bright Energy, he could not sense the existence of the mother and daughter at all!
What was going on?
What the hell was going on???
Ahhhhhhhhh!!!
Sean was like he had gone mad, punching and smashing the surrounding rock walls. The flying gravel meant nothing as he still couldn’t find Phyllis and Cecilia or the mechanism of the cave!Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Cecilia and Phyllis were Sean’s inverse scales that must not be touched. Daring to move the mother and daughter, in addition to his rage, Sean’s killing intent towards Ernest Mason and others instantly reached an unsurpassable level!
Kill!
Kill!
Kill!
He must kill!
If anything happened to Phyllis and Cecilia, Sean swore in his heart that he would take all ten families of the Hall of Swords down with him!!!
Whoosh!
The mechanisms and traps in the Hill of Swords were extraordinary. Sean did not blindly search, but rushed out of the cold iron gate towards the exit of the cave!
If it was Ernest Mason and others who activated the mechanism and captured Phyllis and Cecilia!
Then finding Ernest Mason and the others would naturally lead to the mother and daughter!
But!
After rushing out through those two ice iron gates, Sean was surprised to discover that the ice iron gates in this cave were more than just those two. There was one every dozen meters or so!
That is to say!
In this small hundred meter deep Hill of Swords cave, there were actually as many as seven or eight identical ice iron gates installed!
Damn!
Was it because this was the cave closest to the peak of Hill of Swords that those bastards in Swordland valued it so much and installed so many checkpoints in one go???
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
With Phyllis and Cecilia’s safety on his mind, Sean didn’t care about anything else. He only had one thought in his mind, which was to rush out as soon as possible! Rush out! Rush out to find Ernest Mason and the others to settle accounts! Rush out to rescue the mother and daughter!
So! Sean did not rest at all. When he saw the ice iron gate, he would smash it!
He punched!
One punch after another!
Smashing hard!
Hitting desperately!
One gate after another, smashing through this one, and continuing to smash the next one…
At that time!
At the foot of Hill of Swords!
After Sean led the people onto the path, although Ernest Mason and the others were extremely unwilling, they did not dare to defy Sean’s orders either. They could only drag their injured bodies out reluctantly to preside over the subsequent selection, according to Sean’s intention just now, allocating quotas from the first to the fifth floors to the people of Swordland and foreign forces!
The entire allocation process lasted nearly an hour!
Forty-five quotas in total!
Forty-five people were selected!
Some were happy!
Some were worried!
Ernest Mason was still standing on that gray stage, his face still as black as the bottom of a pot, and as ugly as could be. His sinister gaze swept over the forty-five selected people, and he gritted his teeth and said, “Don’t just stand there stupidly, start climbing!”
“Thank you Mr. Mason!”
“Thank you Mr. Mason!”
“Thank you Mr. Mason!”
Those forty-five lucky ones who were selected were naturally overjoyed. Their smiling faces were filled with unconcealable excitement, and they thanked Ernest Mason in unison. Then, like a swarm of bees, they rushed towards the entrance of the path eagerly!
“This…”
“Just let them go up like this?”
“F*ck!”
“Really f*cking unwilling!”
Including Trevor Mason, those Complete Stage old guys stood beside Ernest Mason, watching those forty-five people go up the path one after another, they were so resentful that their teeth itched!
“What else can we do?”
Ernest Mason took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “General Wolf Sean, an ultimate cultivator nearing the Bright Realm!”
“Now!”
“King Ron is dead!”
“Looking at the entire Shirine Empire, who else could be his match?”
“His words!”
“You dare not listen?”
With just one sentence, those old guys were left speechless.
“This…”
“For us, this may be a rare opportunity!”
After a pause, Ernest Mason’s tone suddenly took a turn and continued, “General Wolf Sean is now the undisputed number one cultivator in the Shirine Empire. No one can stop him!”
“Unless…”
Just as Ernest Mason was halfway through his words!
Suddenly!
Without any warning, a huge anomaly erupted from the top of Hill of Swords. Standing in Ernest Mason’s position, looking up, the entire Hill of Swords seemed to be shaking, as if it was about to tilt to the side!
Seeing this!
Ernest Mason was so frightened that his face turned ashen. He stopped halfway through his words and exclaimed, “What’s going on???”
“This…”
“This this this…”
Trevor Mason and the others were similarly frightened speechless, their faces filled with indescribable shock, and their eyes filled with inexplicable horror and fear!
Hill of Swords…
Was going to collapse???
F*ck!
F*ck!
F*ck f*ck f*ck!!!
The forty-five lucky ones who had just climbed onto the path were similarly stunned and scared silly, along with the tens of thousands of Swordland commoners and foreign forces at the foot of Hill of Swords!
“Oh my f*cking god!”
“Run!”
“Run quickly!!!”
Those poor forty-five lucky ones had just climbed onto the path when such a terrifying scene happened behind them. They were so frightened that they pissed and shat themselves. Where would they still dare to crawl into the caves of Hill of Swords? In their horror, they desperately flew back down!
Swish swish swish!
Under the sudden violent shaking, the rubble on top of Hill of Swords rolled down one after another. The scene was even more terrifying than a mudslide!
“Not good!”
“It’s the gods!”
“The gods are angry!”
“Run quickly!”
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!”
The massive crowd at the foot of Hill of Swords immediately descended into chaos, with cries of alarm and screams of terror as they desperately fled down the mountain. No one knew how many were trampled to death!
Gods!
Gods!
Were the gods really angry???
“Could it be…”
Ernest Mason did not turn and flee like the others. Instead, he stared tightly at the violently shaking Hill of Swords, and a bold thought suddenly flashed through his mind. He blurted out, “Could it be Lady Saint Marie herself…”
“Did she make a move???”
Saint Marie!
Hearing Ernest Mason’s words, especially the two words “Saint Marie”, Trevor Mason and the others all turned their heads in surprise and looked at Ernest Mason incredulously!!!
Outsiders didn’t know, ordinary Swordland commoners didn’t know, even the middle and lower families of Swordland didn’t know. Only the leadership of the ten major families controlling the Hill of Swords quotas knew!
In fact!
There was a Saint Marie inside Hill of Swords!
Just now! Ernest Mason only said half of what he wanted to say.
Unless… Little did they know, the second half of his sentence was: unless Lady Saint Marie takes action herself, no one can deal with General Wolf Sean!!!
