Clark turned around after hearing that. "Karl has disappeared too! And also Alex!"
Elisa said angrily, "Alex disappeared too!" Clark replied coldly,"And what’s so important about his disappearance?"
Yi Lian grabbed Clark’s arm. "Let’s hurry." "Yes,let’s move quickly."
Jin placed his hand on Elisa’s shoulder. "Don’t be sad. I’m not praising myself, but their lives an nothing to . They ca of their own will and they knew they might lose their lives."
Elisa was sad. Alex had been her dearest friend since childhood. His mother had died a long ti ago from a disease called Scarlet Bleeding Fever.
But how did Alex disappear? Let’s go back ten minutes.
There was soone else stalking them besides Ling Ochi—it was the Mimic Horse, Phase Three. It can see your mories and influence you. But how was it able to kidnap them without anyone noticing? The answer is simple: the overwhelming killing intent released by Ling Ochi was able to hide its appearance.
Alex was more nervous than everyone else; he was afraid of death, so his ntal state was shattered. Most humans suffer from psychological pressure; killing intent presses on the heart and stirs feelings of fear and tension, and this also helped the Mimic Horse appear without anyone knowing.
Since he was young, no one from his brothers liked Alex. The reason caused him suffering or a complex. Losing his mother made him feel weak, as if the world was cruel and wanted to tornt him. He never once attended church family events or religious rites because in his mind he would say:
"God watches my suffering and offers no help." Flimsy excuses to cover up his weakness.
So, the Mimic Horse took the form of his mother and used another lure to attract him. Yes, it was Karl. It used Karl’s body to make a puppet, and through that puppet, Alex ca desperately to see his mother!
Clark knew sothing like this would happen, so he wasn’t affected. But in his mind, he said: Most people don’t know that the Mimic Horse is your greatest ally. It helps the Chosen One, so I don’t need to kill it, just subdue it. No one knows the structure of the Inheritance better than it. Keke, this Venerable One’s path is proceeding well.
Soon, they reached one of the caves. There, they were shocked by what they saw: a woman whose body was fused with a giant serpent!
Elisa scread, "It’s Lady Joanna, Alex’s dead mother!"
Suddenly, Alex appeared. He wasn’t dead; he had beco a follower of the Mimic. The Mimic Horse’s combat power is very poor, so it controlled Alex to fight for it.
Clark looked and laughed, "Yi Lian, what do you think about going to kill him?" She asked,"Why don’t you go?" He replied flatteringly,"It would be wonderful to see the experience of my senior sister right before my eyes, so I want to see your level if possible." She nodded her head in agreent.
Suddenly, Elisa intervened. "Stop! I want to stop him without killing him." Clark wanted to speak,but Jin stopped him. "Let’s see what she will do.Maybe she can benefit us if she recovers Alex." Clark replied,"You have only five minutes. That’s all I can give you. After that, you will end the fight, Yi Lian." Elisa replied,"Fine," and nodded gratefully to Jin who helped her.
She drew her sword, around which a water aura ford. The sword intensified, and a trendous aura erupted from Elisa, attracting everyone’s attention. Bai Hu asked,"Is this girl that strong?" Clark replied,"Actually, yes. I haven’t fought her myself, but there is an ancient soul residing in her body. Perhaps that is the reason for her strength."
Everyone focused on the fight. Killing intent radiated from Alex’s face, while Elisa only defended against the blows without any desire to kill or fight.
Yi Lian spoke to Elisa from afar, "At this rate, you’re just delaying having to kill him!" Elisa beca tense,not knowing what to do or how to get Alex back.
Clark spoke up. "It seems I must intervene in the end." The Mimic Horse returned to its human form, trying to hide. Quickly, Clark used the "Black Fla" skill with a powerful strike that almost hit the Mimic Horse. Clark laughed, pointing his finger. "There is no escape!"He rushed forward swiftly, grabbed it by the neck, and slamd it against the rocks. Alex scread, "Mother!" trying to help her and abandoning his fight with Elisa. Imdiately, Elisa intensified her attacks, pressuring him.
Clark declared, "Now, do you know who I am? Release the Heavenly Demon Aura!" The Mimic replied,"You are the heir! The Venerable’s heir! So you bear the title of Venerable One!" Clark retorted,"Of course. Do you know you have committed a great sin? You are now obstructing the path of the heir, aning I have the right to kill you." Clark put his foot on the Mimic’s face, stepping on it forcefully and grinding his sole into its features.
Alex scread with power, his energy surging with anger. "How dare you do that?!" He charged fiercely, trying to strike Clark, but Yi Lian’s sword was faster. It severed his head. Several beautiful sakura petals scattered. Clark was shocked by the coldness, sharpness, and calmness of her blade. Elisa scread in horror, "How could you?!"and fainted.
Clark said, "A foolish girl who thinks she can save humans." Jin thought to himself,Yes, in the end, we can’t save anyone. The world is cruel, and we are cruel to ourselves. I won’t overthink again; I will live as I want. And also, Clark, go ahead, and I’ll be behind your back. I know I won’t show you rcy. Suddenly, Clark sneezed powerfully. "Hahahaha!It seems soone is cursing in their mind."
They moved, with Clark holding the Mimic by its neck, dragging it violently and rcilessly along the ground. The Mimic spoke,"Please, I’m truly sorry." "And what use is your apology?You wasted the Venerable One’s ti. I lost one of my n, and the girl Jin is carrying might turn on us because of you. Tell , what will you compensate with?" "I will tell you everything,just have rcy on !"
Clark threw it against one of the trees, standing before it with overwhelming killing intent directed at it. "Speak. I’m listening to you. Don’t you dare waste my ti." "Alright,first: I am not the real Phase Three. The real invasion and attack will begin now! You will be attacked by ’The Undead’ and an army of shadow mages and shadow beasts!" Yi Lian replied,"What?! Shadow beasts are classified as Category A!" Clark replied,"Yes, they are indeed very dangerous. They stalk and don’t attack; they wait for the right opportunity." The Mimic added,"And last but not least: Category C demons!"
Suddenly, a ssage alert ca to Clark from Agaris, Lord of Demons: "Boy, you are in imminent danger. Beco my ssenger now, and I will grant you my special grace, ’Oblivion’." "I will never beco a slave!I will subdue the demons with these two hands! I don’t need you."
Imdiately, another alert ca to Clark from the Constellation of the World: "Boy, you are in danger, but I will give you one ability for your coming battle. Use it wisely." Suddenly,a skill alert ca to Clark: "Phantom World Manifestation". It is said its owner challenged the constellations and eastern gods because of his control over ti, but due to system limitations, you can only use its emanation. "With Athena’s blessing, who can stand against ? I am Clark the Venerable! Hahahaha! The World Constellation is my greatest ally."
Everyone looked at Clark in astonishnt. He beca calr despite hearing all this. Could he really stop all of them? Suddenly, a huge number of enemies appeared. Everyone drew their weapons,looking around, surrounded on three sides.
Clark shouted, "Retreat to that cave! This place is absolutely unsuitable for fighting!!!" But then... Clark was stabbed!!!!!
