The next moment, the shadow that had taken shape suddenly opened its arms, like a beast that opened its mouth to roar at the sky. In an instant, the sky and the earth began rumbling and the wind began howling. An intimidating aura, which was far more powerful than that of the man in black, rushed out from the shadow and spread for a thousand meters. A second later, the strength the man in black had released collapsed and disappeared.
Although the man in black was facing such a terrifying spiritual soul, he couldn't help but feel surprised.
However, a few moments later, the spiritual soul suddenly burst as if its strength had waned. Then, it turned into a blue light and disappeared.
The sudden changes in the surrounding area stopped, and everything returned to its peaceful state.
Although the spiritual soul had disappeared, the astonishment on the man's face did not disappear. He stared at Zachary as if he still could not believe that the person in front of him could summon such a mighty spiritual soul from nowhere. Of course, in normal cases, this was impossible. Judging from the aura released by that spiritual soul just now, it was at least above the Holy Level. As the man's body couldn't bear a spiritual soul whose strength was above the Imperial Level, how could Zachary's?
So, at this moment, to the man, Zachary was a riddle wrapped in a mystery.
Zachary breathed a sigh of relief. He was still in a state of shock. Fortunately, Andrew's spiritual soul had appeared and helped him. Otherwise, if he had faced the strike head-on, he would have been in a lot of trouble. He could have escaped to his system. But if he had chosen to retreat, his efforts to track the man all the way here would have been in vain. Then, he wouldn't have been able to finish the tracking quest.
"Kid, it seems that I have underestimated you!" At this time, the man's attitude toward Zachary changed. There was no intense hostility in his eyes, as before. Rather, both his expression and tone were tinged with curiosity and amazement as he realized that Zachary wasn't as simple as he appeared.
.
"You don't have to do that. I don't want to die at all!" Zachary said confidently.
"The choice is not yours to make!" A strong murderous look flashed in the man's eyes.
"If you kill me, you will never be able to find the Five-God Tombs." Zachary used his trump card. Only the Five-God Compass in his hand could help a person to find the exact location of the Five-God Tombs. So the Five-God Compass was indispensable to anyone who wanted to find the Five-God Tombs.
"What do you mean?" the man restrained his killing intent and asked as confusion coursed through him.
"If you are interested in the Five-God Tombs, you can't kill me. It's that simple!" Of course, Zachary wouldn't tell him that he had a treasure—the Five-God Compass—that would help him to find the exact location of the Five-God Tombs.
The man hesitated when he observed that Zachary was unafraid and that he didn't appear to be lying. Moreover, the boy already knew that he had the Five-God Stone Tablet. As none of this seemed to be a coincidence, the man had reason to believe Zachary.
Thinking of this, the man scrutinized Zachary.
Now that he had wavered on his decision to kill him, Zachary seized the chance to continue speaking. "You want to kill me because you are afraid that I will disclose the secret of the Five-God Tombs, but I promise that I won't tell anyone. Moreover, you will definitely need me."
