An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1693

“Quick! Run for your life!”

Seth’s overwhelming power and growing intensity terrified Alaric. Alaric had lost all courage to resist and fled without a second thought.

Seth’s astral projection was the result of a risky technique, pushing him to the edge of injury. But what he faced now was a true breakthrough.

In an instant, he went from being the ultimate grandmaster to entering the realm of terrestrial immortals. At this level, each move had the power to shatter the world.

Even at his best, with vital force shielding him, Alaric wouldn’t dare to face Seth directly. So, the smartest move was to escape.

Alaric was convinced that Seth’s breakthrough was just a temporary surge. He anticipated that Seth would face a setback afterward, making him vulnerable and an easy target at that point.

“How dare you attempt a breakthrough in my presence? You’re just asking for trouble!”

Recalling his past successful sneak attack, Cesar quickly drew his bow and focused all his energy to create a powerful dark arrow.

When the right moment came, he aimed at Seth’s chest and released the arrow. The dark arrow transformed into a black light, speeding toward Seth. Upon impact, a surge of purple lightning burst forth, destroying the dark arrow and striking Cesar relentlessly.

With a loud boom, the lightning threw Cesar about three hundred feet away. His whole body was burnt, and his circulatory pathways were cut off. He tumbled down from the mountaintop, leaving his fate uncertain.

Seeing this, Elder Shade, who had considered intervening, transformed into a black mist. He quickly fled, unwilling to stay.
