Monarch Of Time

Chapter 296 - 296 Soul search

Shun Long could feel the ʼStone of Timeʼ inside his spiritual space that had started to buzz incessantly, when suddenly, 2 middle-aged men in silver armor and long swords in their hands appeared a few hundred meters in the distance in front of him.

As the 2 men carefully approached Shun Long, one of them shouted, in a voice so powerful that seemed as if it was about to rupture Shun Longʼs eardrums

ʼʼWHO DARES TO TRESPA.S.S HERE?ʼʼ

The silver-armored manʼs voice seemed like it was an attack directly aimed towards Shun Longʼs soul, and no matter how much Shun Long tried to stay awake, he could feel his mind buzzing while his eyelids gradually dropped.

Alongside the ever-rising pressure coming from the ʼStone of Timeʼ inside his spiritual space that hadnʼt stopped rotating, the manʼs shout was the last thing that Shun Long heard before he finally passed out.

ʼʼEh?ʼʼ

The 2 silver-robed men approached Shun Long carefully, but they didnʼt dare to get too close to him.

Instead, they turned their eyes towards the majestic red palace behind them, where more than 100 silver armored guards like them were standing guard.

At the same time, at the depths of this majectic palace, was a long-white-haired old man dressed in golden robe,s with 2 middle-aged men standing behind him, as well as an extremely handsome young man and a gorgeous young woman who were staring at the old man respectfully.

The old manʼs eyes however, were focused on the gigantic purple-colored sphere in front of him.

No matter what the old man tried to, he was unable to enter inside the sphere in front of him.

Whether he tried to attack it, or just infuse his qi inside the sphere, it was useless.

The only thing that the old manʼs qi managed to do, was to get a reaction from the purple sphere in front of him, as a purple-colored pillar of light had pierced through the palaceʼs dome as it shot to the sky!

Suddenly, a surprised expression appeared on the old manʼs face, who quickly turned his head around, and looked almost as if he could see through the red palaceʼs walls as his gaze was focused towards the red palaceʼs entrance.

The 2 middle-aged men behind him also had the same reaction, as they turned to look at each other in shock.

ʼʼSomeone has arrived here?ʼʼ

The young man and the young woman behind the middle-aged man were shocked when they heard this, before everyone turned their gazes towards the old man who still had his hand on top of the purple sphere.

The old man seemed as if he had fallen into deep thought for a while, but after a few moments of deliberation, he looked at one of the 2 middle-aged men and said in a serious voice

ʼʼI shouldnʼt move from here yet, otherwise all of my efforts so far will be meaningless!

Zhong Qiu, go and search the soul of this person and see what you find. Once you are done, you know what to do!ʼʼ

The middle-aged man, Zhong Qiu nodded his head with a serious look in his eyes.

He clearly understood the meaning behind those words.

It didnʼt matter how someone had managed to arrive at this place, any outsiders who infiltrated the 5th palace had to die!

Curious, the handsome young man and the stunning young woman behind the 2 middle-aged men, also wanted to go and have a look at this person, but they didnʼt dare to raise such a request in front of the golden-robed old man.

Although Zhong Qiu was a middle-aged man with plain facial features, the aura that was coming from his body could at least be described as terrifying.

A few moments later, he arrived in front of the 2 silver-armored guards who were standing in front of Shun Long, before his eyes fell on the handsome, blue-robed young man on the ground.

The 2 silver-armored guards instantly fell on their knees as soon as they saw the person who had arrived, before they greeted out in a voice filled with respect and reverence

ʼʼGreetings Elder Zhong!ʼʼ

Zhong Qiu ignored the 2 guards greetings while his eyes were still examining the young man on the ground.

His clothes were obviously of inferior quality, while the spatial ring on his right hand couldnʼt even be considered trash.

Even the spatial rings that beggars on the streets had were of higher quality than this man.

And yet, this person had somehow appeared here.

Turning his eyes to look at the 2 guards who were still kneeling in front of him, Zhong Qiu had a cold look in his eyes as he asked in a serious voice

ʼʼHow did this person arrive here?ʼʼ

ʼʼResponding to Elder Zhong, we donʼt know! We were just standing guard when this person suddenly appeared within our soul sense.ʼʼ

Zhong Qiu had a thoughtful expression on his face, before he dismissed the 2 guards.

In the end, he was going to find out everything after soul-searching Shun Long, so even if the guards didnʼt notice something, it didnʼt matter.

After closing his eyes, a terrifying aura erupted from Zhong Qiuʼs body, one that had the 2 silver-armored guards in front of him shiver in terror.

If Shun Long was awake at this moment, he would have realized that this aura far exceeded anyone that he had met so far.

Even the peak rank 9 Dao King from the ʼAlchemistsʼ Guildʼ of the Heavenʼs Dome city, Zhao Lan, and even Duan Zhu, the powerful hall master of the ʼDemon Emperor palaceʼ who had covered the entire Heavenʼs Dome city with his aura, couldnʼt even be described in the same breath with the middle-aged man who was staring at him right now.

Raising his right hand, a suction force had appeared from Zhong Qiuʼs hand as it s.u.c.k.e.d in Shun Longʼs body, before a bright white light appeared in Zhong Qiuʼs eyes, as he was ready to search inside Shun Longʼs soul.
