Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 1859 A Trap
"Hmm, I think this woman is just possessed by a demoness, and it is hiding inside her body." Afterobserving the woman for quite a while, Anya speculated that this might be the situation.
"I see. That is what I thought too. I've been thinking that it makes no sense if she is a real demoness.But if she's just possessed, then that will be more logical.” Hearing what Anya said, Rocky thoughtthat it must be the real case.
"However, the stronger the power she has, the faster will be the decay of the body she possesses.Once the body cannot hold on, the demoness's soul will eventually show up. So, if we want to takeon the demoness inside this woman's body, we have to force her to unleash all of her power untilthe body breaks down. As soon as the soul appears, we can seize that opportunity to defeat her,”Anya explained. She was very sure of it since she had already experienced this before. In the past,Phillip did the same strategy. He possessed the bodies of the ancestors of the Shura Race manytimes, killing the other members of the race in the process.
Now that the demoness had finished eliminating the army of martial spirits that guarded theentrance of the palace, she continued to move forward. However, as soon as she was about to stepinto the entrance, a strong force suddenly gushed out from the Demon Sealing Palace. Althoughshe tried her best to resist it, she was sent flying backward. It seemed that even with her strength,she could not overcome the power of the enchanted barrier.
"As I expected, the enchanted barrier is too powerful. We need to use the power of some holytreasure in order to shatter it. But the power of the holy treasure of the demonic race right now isnot enough to remove the barrier. I guess we still have to wait for the other teams. We have to killthem and offer their blood to the holy treasure to strengthen it," the demoness murmured toherself and retreated back to Enoch's team.
"Madam, it seemed that we can't just enter the palace. What should we do next?" Enoch asked uponseeing that she failed to break the enchanted barrier.
"As you can see, with my strength alone, I cannot open the enchanted barrier. So, there is no otherway but to rely on the holy treasure. But the current power of the holy treasure is not enough.Therefore, we will do the original plan and wait for other members of the Shura Race to arrive here.After killing them, we will sacrifice their blood to the holy treasure. This will give the holy treasureenough power to force open the enchanted barrier,” the demoness instructed
"I understand. Then, I will now ask my men to make the necessary preparations. When the otherteams arrive, I'll make sure to lure them into the trap and present them to you as sacrifices!” Enochuttered confidently.
"This is bad. They have a holy treasure that can help them break the barrier. If they can successfullykill the other warriors and use their blood to awaken the power of the holy treasure, I'm afraid thatwe can't stop them from entering the Demon Sealing Palace,” Anya said in a worried tone. Rockyand Valeria also heard what the demoness said, so they could not help but let out a frown.
"We should hope that the other teams won't get here. The longer the demoness is delayed fromentering the Demon Sealing Palace, the better it will be for us.” Rocky was also worried about thesituation of Layla and the rest of her team members. However, there was a more important matterbefore them right now, and he could not afford to lose focus.
After a while, Enoch's team set up a camp in front of the Demon Sealing Palace. They took this timeto recuperate while waiting for the other teams to appear.
Eventually, a day passed.
At this time, the other two teams were still nowhere to be seen. It was obviously a good thing forRocky and his group, but that did not last long.
Half a day later, Enoch's team spotted a few figures suddenly appear near the stone bridge.However, they did not pass the bridge. It was obvious that these people were just scouting the area.Upon sensing the arrival of the several powerful warriors, the members of Enoch’s team instantlybecame vigilant.
However, when the figures, who were lurking around the stone bridge, noticed Enoch’s team infront of the palace, they quickly retreated. It seemed that they went back to inform their masterabout their discovery.
"Those warriors must be Prince Zain's men. Well, I know that they will eventually catch up. Wecannot prevent the inevitable,” Rocky sighed while hiding in the dark.
"We still have a chance. When they start sacrificing the blood of the warriors to the holy treasure, wecan start taking action. It's either we force the soul of the demoness out of her body or we destroythe holy treasure. If we can accomplish that, we can stop them from entering the Demon SealingPalace,” Anya said resolutely.
"Then, we have no choice but to wait and see what Prince Zain will do next." Rocky focused on thesituation again. He should be always ready just in case something unexpected suddenly happened.Meanwhile, the masters, who had retreated from the stone bridge, returned to a camp just a fewhundred meters away. At this moment, Zain's men were inside, taking the opportunity to rest for awhile.
Then, one of the scouts quickly entered Zain's tent and reported, "Your Royal Highness, the entranceto the Demon Sealing Palace is just ahead of us. However, we found out that Prince Enoch's team isalready there. It seems that they arrived earlier than us.”
"They are still outside? All of them?" Zain asked rather calmly. He did not expect that Enoch wouldbe able to move faster than them, but he still thought that it would not be too much of a problem."Yes, Your Royal Highness. I don't think anyone has entered the palace yet," the scout replied.
"I guess so too. The Demon Sealing Palace is protected by a powerful enchanted barrier, so theycannot just enter it that easily,” Zain uttered with a smirk.
"But if they can't get in, how can we enter the palace?” Zain's confidant immediately asked
"It might be impossible for them, but I happen to know how to get in. It is only passed by mouthfrom one ruler to the next, and only powerful masters with the royal bloodline can do it. All youhave to do is cover for me so that I can enter the palace.” It turned out that Zain was still calmbecause he knew that his uncle did not know the way to enter the Demon Sealing Palace.
At the same time, just as Zain was making some preparations before his team approached theDemon Sealing Palace, the team led by Layla was also closing in. Apparently, they also found someof the golden slates that gave the clue regarding the palace's location.
Not long after, Zain's team finished their preparations, and they immediately set out, headingstraight for the Demon Sealing Palace.
After a while, his team arrived in front of the stone bridge. They could clearly see that on the otherside of the bridge, Enoch's team was waiting for them.
"Uncle! I did not expect that you will replace the Demon Sealing Palace first,” Zain shouted as hestepped away from his team. He was the only one who approached the stone bridge.
Enoch also did the same and sneered, "Well, it only proves that you are still young and a bitinexperienced. Why don't you just go back already? Or are you confident to fight me and my men?"Obviously, Enoch was goading Zain so that the latter would come and cross the bridge. KnowingZain's personality, he would be easily provoked.
"Humph! Don't be so arrogant. I have already overcome too many hardships just to observe thegrand scenery of the Demon Sealing Palace, so why will I even think of going back now? You shouldbe the one to go back. After all, you already had the chance to see the palace. Besides, what are youstill doing here? It's not like you can get past the enchanted barrier even if you want to,” Zainreplied haughtily.
"Ha! How are you so sure? My dear nephew, even if we are related by blood, you should know thatif you insist on competing against me, you will bear unimaginable consequences!" Enoch continuedto provoke Zain. Once Zain snapped and decided to take his men across the bridge, it would betheir loss. Just one wrong step and Zain and his entire team would fell into the elaborate trap thatEnoch had set up beforehand.
