An Understated Dominance (Maria Vittori) novel Chapter 1694

A vibrant purple sword aura zoomed through the air, racing toward Oakvale at an incredible speed. Starting at three feet, it grew an inch for every foot, rapidly expanding to over thirty feet in just a few moments.

As the sword aura moved, the sky and the ground changed colors, and thunder rumbled. It sliced through the clouds, leaving a smooth, mirror-like cut in its wake.

Growing and speeding up, the purple sword aura appeared to possess the power to reshape the very essence of reality. It instilled a bone-chilling awe in those who witnessed it.

As Seth unleashed this mighty stroke, Alaric, the second-ranked on the Astonishing World List, had wisely retreated ten miles away. The once- confident powerhouse was now sweating and panicking.

“Madman! You’re a madman! Risking soul and sanity to boost your cultivation? I won’t indulge your madness!”

Alaric cursed vehemently as he fled toward the Dragon Guard, seeking refuge in the protection of vital force and ancient formations.

He felt that even if Seth had made a breakthrough, he wasn’t much of a threat. The mountain protection array, a testament to Alaric’s life’s dedication, awaited activation. It was originally designed to thwart Arion, but it would be used today.

At that critical moment, a breaking sound echoed from behind. Alaric turned around. He saw a colossal sword aura, three hundred feet long, hurtling toward him with unstoppable force.

Wherever the sword aura went, it destroyed rocks and wiped out the forest. Surprisingly, it was locked onto Alaric, and there was no way for him to escape.

“How … How is this possible?” Alaric’s eyes widened in shock.
