Chapter 1358
The sudden emergence of Henry and Verrall caused the fight between the ns to stop.
Everyone present had their gaze fixed on Verrall and Henry, trying to figure out who they both were.
Henry stood mid-air and looked around. He did not just barge in aimlessly, it was all done
deliberately. Henry intended to redirect the mes of chaos to someone else.
Verrall had gone totally berserk. Only battle-hungry belligerent would be willing to fight Verrall while
he was in such a state. After all, he was fighting with his life.
Henry had hoped to suppress Verrall with the help of the power of the ns.
He scanned his surroundings and noticed that there was an ancestral hall on the ancestral grounds.
It was the reminder from the Heretic God, rather than Henry''s own observations, that brought his
attention to it.
"Kid, it''s right there. Although it''s not very strong, there are traces of unawakened true spirits."
Henry nodded quietly. Then sped towards the ancestral hall with a single move of his body.
"Henry Zhang, go to hell!"
With a loud roar, Verrall struck once more with his sword.
It was just like earlier before. The power of Verrall''s Qi sword was all focused towards Henry, none
of its power was spread out. The crowd could not feel any threats from his Qi swords at all, but no
one dared to look down on Verrall''s Qi sword this time.
The Qi from the sword was aimed at Henry and shed towards the ancestral hall.
The members of the n widened their eyes in shock. They knew just how powerful the Qi from
Vera Il''s sword was, having seen how it had caused ten experts of the Divine Realm to vomit blood
blood with just a single sh. If the Qi from that sword hit the ancestral hall, it would be in ruins!
Just as the Qi from the sword was about to split the ancestral hall in half, a booming voice suddenly
sounded throughout the ind.
"Protector of Western Xia, how dare you do as you please in thends of the Lon. Just how
much do you look down on us of the Lon?"
The Qi from Verall''s sword disappeared immediately as soon as the voice boomed.
Verrall had a crazed expression on his face. "I''ll kill whoever that tries to stop me!"
While Verrall spoke, another wave of powerful Qi sword condensed. Verralls sword intent had
already reached the pinnacle of perfection. He could form Qi swords with a single thought.

The booming voice sighed heavily and said, "Very well then, activate the formation."
Just as he said that, everyone on the ind felt powerful waves of shock under their feet.
"The surface of theke is rising!"
Someone eximed.
"It''s not the surface of theke that is rising, it''s thend that we''re on that''s descending!"
The whole ind was sinking into theke.
In the sky, an unseen force pressed down on Henry and Verrall. This force was far beyond the
powers of the Divine Realm, making Henry and Verrall no longer able to stand in the air, causing
them to fall to the ground. The water around the ind kept rising, eventually flowing onto the
ind.
The ind in the middle of theke sank at an rming rate, waves crashing down from above
everyone''s head. Then, great amounts of water soon covered their heads. It took merely few
seconds for the entire ind to sinkpletely into theke, take those who were on it down
together.
The current at the bottom of theke was fierce and rapid, and Henry could feel the strong impact of
the current on his body. Henry''s first reaction was to resist it with Qi, but soon realised that Qi
seemed to have disappeared there, making himpletely unable to use it. He could only rely on
his physical strength.
However, no matter how strong he was, he could not possibly resist the power of nature. Soon
enough, Henry was carried away by the current and was swirled to and fro violently by it, unable to
do anything about his situation at hand.
Henry tried to calm down and closed his eyes, then began counting in his head. When he counted
up to 437 seconds, he suddenly felt his body lighten, and the raging waters around him began
dispersing away. Henry opened his eyes and realised that the current had delivered him to a damp,
dark area.
Henry opened his mouth and gasped for breath. Although his physical condition was way beyond
the ordinary, however he had held his breath for more than seven minutes in such violent currents,
that was as far as he could go. The Guinness World Record for holding one''s breath underwater
was much longer than seven minutes, but that had beenpleted under a perfectly controlled
environment. The environment where Henry had just been was not clearly far from controlled.
The first thing Henry did was to inspect himself. He discovered that he still could not use his Qi. It
seemed that the area he was in could cut off certain energies. After figuring that out, Henry began to
observe his surroundings, that dark and damp ce was a cave, it was only two meters high and
could only fit one person. A passage appeared before his eyes. It was dark and bottomless, and he
had not the slightest clue of what lurked within it.
Henry turned around to look and saw the opening he had entered from. It was a hole that opened
downwards, sounds of flowing water still came from below it. The current was very violent.
Obviously, it was impossible for him to take the same path back. Therefore, Henry''s only choice was
to follow the dark path that had appeared before him.
Henry was in no hurry. He decided to first sit down cross- legged to recover some strength. After a
moment of rest, he got up again and moved onward. Henry walked very slowly. He observed the
passage as he walked, it was very quiet. Apart from the sounds of his own footsteps, Henry could
not hear anything else, not even the sounds of the running water at the entrance. Fortunately, after
Henry had gotten used to the darkness, his vision was no longer an issue in the cave. Thus, the
possibility of danger suddenly appearing before him was eliminated, and that brought Henry a
sense of relief.
The stone walls around him were very smooth and were nketed with moss, it was very simr to
most of the dark caves in the world. There was nothing out of the ordinary about it. The cave was
filled with cold air, so cold that it chilled Henry to the bone, causing him shudder involuntarily. Henry
had not experienced a feeling like this for a long time. The temperature of his surroundings had not
affected him since long ago.
Henry took a few more steps forward, then noticed his footsteps suddenly began to sound hollow,
which made Henry realise that he was quickly approaching the end of that passage.
Suddenly, a blinding light shot at Henry. Being already ustomed to the darkness, Henry
subconsciously tried to block his eyes with his hand. His heavy experience in battle and sharp
awareness gave him the feeling that something was not right. He subconsciously took a few steps
back.
ng!
A crisp ring of metal shing sounded. A thin crack appeared on the ground where Henry had just
been standing. It was a long curved de, and the tip of the de was rusty. A warrior in armour
held the de, and it was that warrior that struck at Henry.
The warrior remained in a shing pose after it attacked, not moving in the slightest on its spot and
did notunch a second attack.
Just as doubts emerged within Henry, another ray of light shot towards him.
The moment the ray of light shone on Henry, the warrior in armour moved. Its speed was so fast
that Henry was caught off-guard. Henry dodged subconsciously, and the rusty tip of the curved
de missed Henry from the front and struck the ground in front of Henry''s feet, causing the ground
to crack.
