Chapter 1541

Author: Marina Vittori
Dustin showed no sign of joy after getting a definite answer from the woman.

Instead, he looked gloomy. The person in Aylka must have only agreed because she was certain she had ways to get the information he needed.

But somehow, he just had a nagging feeling that there was something odd about the whole thing. The closer he got to the bottom of things, the more uneasy he felt.

He didn't even know what was the source of this unsettling feeling. It felt like intuition, but then again, maybe he was just overthinking things.

"Forget it. I'll work things out as they come." Dustin shook his head and did away with these troubling thoughts.

Just as he was about to return to his room for a rest, his phone rang. It was a call from Lana.

"Hello, Ms. Camron. Is anything the matter?" Dustin looked around and noticed that the sun was already setting.

"Ms. Camron? Haha! I'm sorry, you guessed wrong." Suddenly, a raspy voice could be heard through the phone.

"What?" Dustin's brows furrowed i

  • An Understated Dominance   Chapter 2678

    The atmosphere in the canyon crackled with unbearable tension. The humanoid beast in dark crimson armor moved like death incarnate. Every thrust of its spear was precise, lethal, and dripping with a dark energy that sought to corrode everything it touched.Dustin drove his footwork to the breaking point. His sword light moved like liquid steel, weaving and parrying through the storm of spear shadows as he desperately searched for an opening."This can't go on," he thought, his mind racing.The beast's third form was not only faster and stronger than before, but its combat skills were nearly flawless. Worse, its energy seemed boundless. A purely defensive fight was a losing one. He needed to find a single, decisive moment to strike.Dustin deliberately left an opening, allowing his body to hesitate for a fraction of a second as he evaded a tricky lateral stab.The humanoid beast's crimson eyes flared violently. There was no way it would let such an opening slip by. Its black spea

    "I won't let you complete that attack!" Dustin roared.His gaze hardened, and he no longer held back. The mystical pure energy inside him surged like a raging river as he channeled it into his longsword.The sword let out a sharp hum as cyan light flared along its edge. A massive 100-foot-long spectral blade materialized above his head, condensing to a tangible solidity."Cut it down!"With a sweep of his fingers, the massive energy blade descended with devastating force toward the beast still charging its energy sphere.Before the sword came crashing down, its overwhelming sword aura locked down the space around the beast, leaving it with no room to escape.The flying beast sensed the lethal threat, and its single eye widened in terror. The energy sphere in its mouth hadn't reached maximum power, but it was forced to spit it out early to meet the massive cyan energy blade.An even more devastating explosion erupted. The entire canyon trembled as if on the verge of collapse.Th

    The three-headed ferocious beast's roar echoed through the narrow canyon, shaking loose stones from the jagged walls. Its six crimson eyes locked onto Dustin. The middle head jerked back and unleashed a torrent of scorching dark-red flames reeking of sulfur toward him and his group like a flood of molten lava.Before the flames even arrived, the terrifying heat warped the air, and shallow puddles on the ground evaporated instantly. The guards felt their hair curl and their skin prickle with intense heat."Fall back!" Dustin barked.Instead of retreating, he stepped forward, placing himself between the beast and the others. He didn't draw his sword but pressed two fingers together and made a light sweeping motion through the air.A razor-sharp crescent of cyan sword aura materialized out of thin air, tearing through the air with a piercing shriek as it met the surging flames head-on.There was no earth-shattering explosion. The cyan sword aura sliced through the dark-red pillar o

    After leaving the eerie forest, Grace and her group followed the elderly man's directions and headed southeast.The deeper they went into the grove, the denser the fog became. The leaves no longer rustled with their pleasant sound. Instead, an unsettling stillness hung in the air. The faint, fresh scent of the woods carried an underlying trace of something sickly sweet."Ms. Linsor, can we really trust what that elderly man said?" Judith asked, lowering her voice and glancing around warily.Grace shook her head, her expression tense. "It's hard to tell, but this is the only clue we have," she replied.If Dustin, a terrestrial immortal realm powerhouse, hadn't been with them, she never would have dared take the risk.After about an hour of walking, they finally spotted the deep canyon that the elderly man had told them about.The entrance was narrow, flanked by towering black cliffs that seemed to have been carved with giant blades. Not a single plant grew on the barren rock walls

    The little boy glared at Dustin, his jet-black eyes looking him up and down. For someone so young, his voice was unexpectedly pompous and commanding."Huh? An outsider like you actually has some skill. You managed to block my casual strike?"Dustin remained calm. He lowered his hand and said evenly, "For someone so young, there's no need to be so vicious. We can talk this through.""Vicious? Hmph! You trespass in my sanctuary, disturb my cultivation, and now you dare lecture me?" the boy snapped, clearly provoked by Dustin's calm demeanor.He stomped his foot and shot into the air like a cannonball. Curving his hands into claws, he lunged at Dustin's head as an azure glow wreathed around his fingertips, whistling sharply.This attack was far stronger than the last. The air warped where his claws passed, and invisible pressure bent the surrounding trees until they nearly snapped.Dustin shook his head, with a trace of exasperation on his calm face. Without moving from his spot or

    After leaving the lakeside carnage, Dustin, Grace, and the group moved with extreme caution. They threaded their way carefully through the dense, treacherous jungle.The dangers of Elysium Isle far surpassed anything they'd imagined. Harmless-looking shrubs could suddenly whip out barbed tendrils, and vibrant flowers spewed clouds of paralyzing pollen. Even the soil underfoot might collapse without warning into churning quicksand ready to devour them whole.Fortunately, Dustin, a man whose strength seemed limitless, was there to lead them. He seemed to sense danger before it struck, handling each threat with effortless ease and guiding the group safely through one deadly encounter after another.After traveling for roughly a day and a night, the landscape suddenly opened up before them.A vibrant green grove stretched before them. Slender trunks rose straight and tall, leaves rustling gently in a light mist. The air smelled fresh and clean. It was a sharp contrast to the dangers th
