Chapter 2659 Deactivate The Strength Equalizing Theurgy

"Swish!"

Zen slashed the sword in front of him with practiced ease, leaving a barely noticeable mark on the wall.

The house groaned, and a second later, collapsed with a deafening sound.

Unfortunately, as fierce as Zen's sword was, it was unable to hurt the tomb keeper.

Zen weighed the sword in his hand, face solemn.

Everyone became ordinary under the effect of the Strength Equalizing Theurgy, and in theory, Zen would be mostly unrivaled under this condition.

However, he didn't expect the tomb keeper's body to be this tough. Even if he utilized the Truth Crystal, he still couldn't do anything to the tomb keeper and it was frustrating him to no end.

"Let's make a deal," said the tomb keeper as he dexterously spun the dagger in his hand. "If I defeat you, you'll tell me how you cultivated the truth theurgy. What do you think?"

The sudden proposal puzzled Zen.

He thought the tomb keeper would be on the Warden race's side but judging from his attitude, it looked like he didn't really care much whether the race lived or died.

"I have no time for such nonsense." Zen extended his arm and with a slight turn of the Truth Crystal in his palm, starlight shone down the tomb keeper.

Not a second after, Zen darted towards the tomb keeper, his sword enveloped in a green light.

Swish!

The tomb keeper took half a step back, as cool and indifferent as ever.

This was how he moved, calculated and precise.

He didn't blink once as the starlight hit his body.

And as Zen's sword came at him, he merely tilted his head, narrowly missing a gash on the neck.

His movements looked like dancing. Any carelessness would lead him to death.

He moved leisurely, as if he was waltzing and not fighting to the death. It irked Zen but he guessed it would be good for him if the tomb keeper made a wrong step.

If it weren't for the Strength Equalizing Theurgy, Zen could easily claim victory by using the Eight Smoky Melodies.

The tomb keeper, however, only had his experience to rely on. 'He must have perfect perception of energy, ' thought Zen.

Watching his opponent's fluid body movement secretly frightened Zen, prompting him to make fiercer and stronger attacks.

Boom

ut why was it that Zen got the truth theurgy without much effort when he had spent countless hours and energy trying to learn it, only to fail every time?

"Tell me why he chose you," the tomb keeper continued, his eyes never straying from Zen.

Zen only turned his head aside.

"I have a way to make you speak," the tomb keeper said.

But just as the tomb keeper pressed on Zen harder, a loud whirring sound suddenly came from far away.

When the tomb keeper heard this, he looked up at the Equality Altar and frowned.

Why did the Warden race deactivate the Strength Equalizing Theurgy now? Were they playing with death?

It was already difficult to fight against the intruders under the effect of the Strength Equalizing Theurgy. Just imagine how it would be with the Strength Equalizing Theurgy gone.

As the Equality Altar rotated slowly, it emitted dots of orange light which began to spread in all directions.

Activating the Strength Equalizing Theurgy was a process that moved from inside to outside and from slow to fast.

Deactivating it was the same.

Spark, who was standing in the center of the Equality Altar, was the first to be infiltrated by the orange light.

When his cultivation base was restored, a sinister smile appeared on his face.

At this moment, the group of people not far from the altar were just a group of ants for him.

Realizing it was his chance, he shouted, "All of you! Go to hell!"

His voice echoed in the sky.
