311: Chapter 299: The Final Battle of a Certain Individual (Long Chapter)_2 311: Chapter 299: The Final Battle of a Certain Individual (Long Chapter)_2 Master himself has already stepped in.
We can’t avoid this anymore.
Dave also knew the importance, gritted his teeth and followed Owen Bertram in.
The insides of the stone hole were twisted and extrely smooth, spiraling downwards for more than ten ters and then gradually beca wider.
The smooth stone walls began to emit faint radiance, and dark lines appeared and continued to increase in number.
They looked sowhat like Array lines but were a bit different from those of this era.
Owen Bertram saw Dave following him but didn’t say much.
Master and servant quickly descended more than a hundred ters, and then there was nothing beneath them.
They both fell down together.
Owen Bertram opened his palm, and the spiritual energy released a radiance that then dispersed, scattering like fireflies.
It was then that they saw that they had fallen into a vast cave.
In the center stood a huge skeleton.
It was completely different from ordinary creatures.
Its bones were like tree trunks, and the flesh on its body did not rot but was dried up and clung tightly to the bones.
There were even so vine-like branches, also withered and drooping, with leaves as thin as paper.
When it was alive, this demon being should have been a combined state of a demon plant and demon beast.
It was several hundred ters tall and was the most formidable opponent that the figure wrapped in black wind had killed in Copper Gorge Extinction Domain!
Yes, this demon being had also appeared in the mural.
The spiritual energy transford into spiritual light floated down, shining on Owen Bertram’s face, making his expression flicker uncertainty.
He didn’t say much.
After he brought Dave up, the Divine Heavenly Soldier returned as well.
He pointed to the remaining three stone holes: “Each of you choose one.” Then he took the lead and went inside one.
Soon, Owen Bertram confird that the spaces connected beneath the five stone holes all held a corpse which had been killed by that figure years ago.
At this point, Owen Bertram suddenly rembered the Bone Beast in the lake that had been eaten by Magpie.
It was also a demon being that figure had defeated.
This demon being had once occupied a great river in the Extinction Domain alone.
When that figure passed by the riverbank, he flicked his finger and injured it, causing it to sink to the bottom of the river.
However, this demon being was extrely irritable and had been entangled with that figure ever since.
Its final outco was not recorded in the murals – its final resting place was here.
Now it seed that the mural that the Mountain Master had seen was missing so crucial parts.
Afterward, Owen Bertram personally inspected all five stone holes and had a general idea of the structure beneath the lake in his mind, but still could not accurately control all the details.
For example, what were the Golden-scaled Small Fish for?
How was the Bone Beast charged and where did the Fruit Tree draw its nutrients from?
Owen Bertram thought for a mont, and realized he didn’t have a thod, without destroying this intact structure, to scrutinize every detail like an “X-ray”.
Ghost spirits had the ability to transport through walls, but it was difficult to see the whole picture.
He thought about it, put away the Golden Coffin and Divine Heavenly Soldier, let Little Ghost Gregory Ryan return to his sister’s neck and instructed Magpie, “Guard this place.
I’ll be right back.”
…
Sherry was restless from the beginning and strongly disliked the sudden appearance of the Lord of the Horizon Bureau.
Owen Bertram had a fearso reputation, so when he was present, Sherry behaved like a quail in the cold rain.
But when Owen Bertram suddenly left and appeared angry, Sherry’s mind beca active again.
She was under the secret orders from the Clan Leader.
The main goal of this journey was to find the Spiritual Treasure Embryo.
How could following Owen Bertram benefit the Scott Family?
As soon as Owen Bertram left, Sherry secretly observed everyone’s expressions and reactions.
When Owen Bertram didn’t return for a long ti, she saw an opportunity.
At first, she went to find Rachel: “Fourth Young Master, I’m afraid Master won’t be back for a while.”
Rachel glanced at her: “Senior, what do you want to say?”
“How could such highest-ranking official in the Horizon Bureau not bring any subordinates?”
“With his hurried departure, there must be subordinates and forces nearby that he has arranged who have encountered powerful demon beings and encountered trouble.”
“Why don’t we take this opportunity to break free of his control?”
“Spiritual Treasure Embryo is a treasure; do you really want to hand it over to soone from the Imperial Court?”
”
Even if we get out of Copper Gorge in the future, we’ll have an excuse: We waited a long ti for him to co back, but due to demon beings attacking, we had to retreat.”
“At that ti, both families can ask their friends in the Imperial Court to talk, so there won’t be any substantial punishnt.”
Rachel could not be persuaded by her few words.
He picked up his hand and said: “Senior, since you guessed that there must be people he has arranged nearby, don’t you think we could escape?”
Sherry tried to persuade him a few more tis, but Rachel remained unmoved.
Sherry went away feeling disappointed, secretly complaining: The young one indeed had not been through many storms, and was already frightened by Owen Bertram.
As soon as Sherry left, the Elder ca over.
Unlike Sherry, he was full of worry: “Fourth Young Master, have we been abandoned by Master Owen?
How co he hasn’t returned after so long?”
Rachel glanced behind him: Although the other disciples didn’t co over to speak, they all craned their necks to look in the direction Owen Bertram had disappeared, staring eagerly like the waiting wife stone.
Rachel shook his head in frustration but could only soothe them: “Considering Lord Algernon’s position, he must be a man of his word.
Everyone must be patient and wait.”
