Chapter 111: Trail Of The Heart… Calamity?

The wind was chilling, and the breeze was terrifyingly strong. However, as soon as it approached her, it seemed to calm down and turn into a slight gust of wind.

Kathryn’s true cultivation, which horrified everyone, could be imagined!

Upon appearing in the icy world, Kathryn glanced around for a moment, then her figure flashed, and she appeared in the midst of a group of elders.

At this moment, the group of elders was still discussing and hadn’t noticed her arrival; after all, at her level of cultivation, she could be invisible to everything in the world if she wished.

She studied them as they talked.

“Hazil and Fixac have been brainwashed. They realized something was wrong and were planning to escape, but how could it be that easy?” one of the elders spoke with a sneer.

Another added, “The rate at which they are realizing that something is wrong is getting high, as though there is someone controlling everything from behind the scenes. But how could we as elders not be able to discover such a fellow yet?”

The elders were puzzled; they couldn’t fully understand how someone could do such a thing and still remain so hidden. Watching everything from an alternate space, Kathryn’s face held a look of intrigue. With a faint smile, she left the hidden dimension and appeared in front of them.

The elders were at first stunned upon seeing Kathryn, but their expression soon turned to one of slight fear. Immediately, all of them stood up, bowed before her, and greeted loudly. They waited for her reply in silence. Kathryn squinted her eyes as she looked through them, then said,

“Tell me more about the hidden person you have discovered and how you came to such a conclusion.”

The elders breathed a sigh of relief, then began explaining everything.

…

Not understanding the true extent of his strength, Luka didn’t dare act rashly. After experiencing the silent death of the demon, he left the place. At this moment, he no longer had any worries in his heart.

Before, he thought he would have to come back a few years later and search for the demon to take revenge, but now that the demon was dead, he was at a loss on how to proceed from here.

Walking around blindly, he didn’t realize when he had stepped into a pit. Luka was stunned, and before he could react, his figure had fallen into the pit. He laughed bitterly inwardly, I didn’t die at the hands of a God Realm demon, but I would now fall to my death?

He felt extremely unresigned, but since he couldn’t do anything about it, he could only accept his fate. Just as he kept falling for what felt like an eternity, he realized that he had hit… solid ground?

He was slightly startled. “I didn’t fall to my death?” Luka could hardly believe it. He slowly stood up and glanced around. He was immediately stunned by what he saw.

…

After the elders had explained the situation to Kathryn, she frowned slightly. According to the elders, some of those who had rebelled and planned to escape the stronghold heard a voice that influenced them and made them believe that their cultivation path was destroyed.

They didn’t believe it at first, but after the whispering voice convinced them, they had no choice but to believe it. When they were asked how they were convinced, they couldn’t recall it.

Kathryn frowned slightly; many demonic abilities flashed through her mind. After all, to reach such a level of cultivation, she had to eliminate countless forces.

Along the way, she had encountered a lot of peculiar abilities. After thinking, she came up with only two abilities that could do this: manipulation? Or mind control? She immediately knew that things were far from simple. She sighed then said coldly,

“Call out all the cultivators! How dare a demon be snooping in my midst? Hmph!” Kathryn’s domineering voice thundered in the minds of the elders, causing their expressions to turn pale.

They knew at this moment that… the demon was done for! They sighed in relief; fortunately, everything would be handled since their Empress was here.

Immediately, all the elders rushed out to gather the cultivators, and soon all the cultivators were gathered! Kathryn spread out her divine sense and immediately saw where they had gathered. With a thought, she appeared there.

Her figure hovered above everyone as she glanced at them. Her terrifying divine sense spread out and scanned all of them, even searching the depths of their souls.

All the cultivators felt a chill in their hearts; however, they didn’t dare complain, after all, they had heard of the terrifying tales of this Empress…

After scanning the more than twenty thousand cultivators present, Kathryn frowned for a moment. Within the past fifty years, the alchemists had concocted more medicinal pills, and so the number of cultivators had increased greatly.

However, just as Kathryn finished scanning the cultivators with her divine sense and didn’t find anything wrong, a memory flashed through her mind for a moment.

She was stunned; however, she didn’t hesitate and immediately glanced in a certain direction. Her expression turned sharp, and she quickly stretched forth her hand and struck at a certain space.

Immediately, a loud shriek resounded. Soon after, a shadow rushed out of there. The figure was hiding in an alternate space, but she had directly sensed it and attacked the figure’s world!

But the next moment, her expression turned solemn after seeing what the creature was… it was a… calamity?

…

Luka saw that he had appeared in a unique space. A few meters ahead of him was a glittering orb! The orb glowed faintly with a series of golden runes inscribed faintly on its surface. He was shocked because he realized that this was an awakening orb!

But the orb looked quite strange and was different from what he noticed in the books he had read. Why would an orb be inscribed with runes?
