They had all been on this path for almost five hours now but still hadn’t reached the end. Some of them had gotten great treasures, such as rare plants, essence stones, elemental weapons, and even techniques, but most of the techniques were of the fire element.
At one of the paths, a youth could be seen running quickly towards what looked like a castle.
‘It’s stronger here’, the youth thought while staring at the castle.
The youth was none other than Jonas. Since he entered into the ancient paths, he had not stopped for one minute and had been following a ‘call’.
From the time he saw the light, he suddenly felt a sense of calling from it. This was why he hurried towards it as fast as he could. Even after the light had died down for some time, he could still feel the call.
After entering the ancient paths, he didn’t bother about any other thing and just focused on where the call was coming from. Now he had finally found it, it was from this castle.
‘Why is it calling me?’, Jonas asked himself.
This was a question he had asked himself over and over again, but he still couldn’t come up with an answer. He didn’t know what he might find in this place, but he knew it wasn’t something that would harm him.
Steeling his mind, he slowly disappeared into the castle.
…….
“Uh! People are fighting up ahead”, a soft voice said.
The owner of the voice slowly walked towards where the sounds of battles were coming from. It was ahead anyway, so there was no way the figure wouldn’t see who was fighting unless the figure decided to turn around.
Boom! Bang!
A figure slammed into the wall by the side.
“So this is his full strength”, the soft voice said.
The owner of the voice was Alice, ahead of her was the Darkness Elementalist, and he was facing off against two youths. One in the Third stage, and another in the Second.
He had injured the one in the Second stage, and was currently in a heated battle against the one in the Third stage.
The fact that he could fight against two people of this caliber and not only gain the upper hand but was about to kill them, was nothing less of a testament to how strong he was.
Alice initially had no plans of stepping in but looking closer, she recognized both youths, they were from the Lunar Academy.
Although she was still in the Second stage of the Origin Plane, her true strength was no weaker than those at the Third stage, and she is even stronger than some of them.
Sensing someone else walking into the battle scene, the Darkness Elementalist turned and looked in her direction.
“I’ll advise you don’t interfere with this, little lady”, he said coldly.
“I don’t meddle in other people’s affairs. But you see, they’re my friends”, Alice smiled lightly as she walked towards both youths.
Now it was three against one, although one of the youths was injured, it didn’t mean he still couldn’t fight.
The Darkness Elementalist looked at them with an icy gaze.
And the path fell into silence.
Alice was waiting patiently for his decision, if he wanted to fight, then, she had no problem with that. She hadn’t fought someone this strong anyway, so it will be a test for her.
Both parties faced off without anyone showing any signs of backing down.
