She suspiciously pondered, “That old man has reached the end of his thousand-year lifespan, so he's definitely dead. This is probably a formation he left behind to stop others from finding his chamber and discovering his corpse as his end approaches!”
She immediately turned around, retrieved the sword that had been knocked away, and thought coldly, ‘Hmph! Since it's a formation, no matter how strong its abilities are, they will eventually be exhausted. I will break this stone wall today and uncover the truth!’
With that in mind, Fleur swung the sword with her left hand, once again yielding her powerful Reiki, and struck the stone wall with all her might!
In a flash, there was a loud bang, and before Fleur could react, she felt a tremendous force in her left hand, causing it to go numb. The sword she tightly gripped was knocked away again.
The force of the rebound this time was no weaker than the previous one, leaving Fleur with a look of shock on her face. She could understand a formation being strong, but what she couldn't understand was why the force of the rebound remained undiminished despite the large expenditure of energy in the first rebound.
This left her unable to gauge the true strength of the Reiki contained within the formation.
Fleur was both shocked and angry, feeling as if she was being mocked and humiliated by the formation left behind by Marcius.
She gritted her teeth and sternly rebuked, “Did you set up such a powerful formation just to keep me out? I am your disciple! Three hundred years ago, when your end was near, why didn’t you pass on your lifelong learnings and treasures to me? You kept talking about waiting for one with the ‘fate of the ascending dragon’! What nonsense is that? Moreover, even if there is such a thing, why would you leave all your precious belongings to someone you've never met? What's wrong with leaving it to me?!”
Fleur roared in frustration, mainly to vent her resentment. However, just as her words fell silent, a deep male voice suddenly echoed in the cave, “Rebel, I've told you not to set foot in Mount Tason again. Why have you returned?!”
