?Shi and Hyunsuk tightened their hold on Lith's arms holding them. They were being hugged from behind and dragged away.
Dennis was in the mix too and was dumbfounded. He did not need rescuing, so why was the Prince holding him?
Your Highness I can face the boulder, it's just a rock! Dennis wanted to scream, but his vampire instincts didn't allow him to refute his Prince.
Lith could feel his two disciples' panic, but there was no time to comfort them.
The boulder was bad news. It was even worse than the mantis as there were a few dangerous runes Lith could feel on it.
Lith did not have much idea about runes and his knowledge was limited, but his instincts were never wrong and facing it head-on was asking to be killed.
Lith did not want to resurrect back home. That would be too shameful and he would become a laughing stock.
Not to mention, he would be the first among the two siblings to have died! This would take a big hit to his pride!
Lith clicked his tongue and ran as fast as he could, using a movement technique that involved the Lightning element.
Lightning element was the best of the best when it came to movement.
The overall death rate of cultivators having this elemental affinity was the lowest in Lith's world. It was because they could easily escape in time.
The Royal Castle naturally possessed a diverse library of various martial arts suitable for all elements. The library at home had something for everything, be it sword technique, movement technique, or even a sexual technique.
Lith had access to such a place, he was bound to have a solid foundation with a wide variety of martial art techniques to choose from.
The movement technique he was currently using was called [Lightning Shadow Flow]. It was one of Lith's most used techniques and was great to make swift zigzag and zapping movements like a lightning strike.
It had not even been a few seconds of running when Lith felt the passage in front of him lengthen. It was not a good thing, but Lith still ran as fast as he could.
The boulder was still closing in on him and it seemed to match Lith's swift pace.
Another few seconds of running later, Lith suddenly realized the passage had no end to it.
By now, he should've exited the cave, but it did not happen. This was not good and shouldn't be possible to accomplish by a mere devil.
Lith's thoughts were running at full speed to analyze this situation, but the rumbling sound of the boulder distracted him.
Lith set the three free and turned around. Dealing with this boulder was more important otherwise he and the rest would be crushed to death.
Vampire regeneration allowed recovery, but that was as long as some part of the body was intact and the Magic Core wasn't hurt.
This boulder would crush everything, regeneration would definitely not work!
The only way out of this was to crush the boulder. To do so, Lith had treasures on him in his space ring. He tried to take out a gauntlet, but failed to do so immediately.
'There is no Space element!' Lith cursed internally.
How this passage was devoid of any Space element, Lith could not understand.
Since treasures could not be summoned from his ring, he ran at the front and yelled, "Dennis, use your defensive artifacts and come with me to punch this boulder."
"Yes, Your Highness!" Dennis began running as well.
He did not know what would happen if he tried to punch a boulder even his Prince thought of evading at first, but Dennis was mentally prepared for it.
His Prince had given him a command and his brain was programmed to not think about anything else but that.
With this, the only worry Dennis had was to not be able to punch the boulder. What if the Prince did it before him? He would fail to answer his calls!
That was absolutely unforgivable!
Dennis tried to take out the items from his space ring but failed to do so just like Lith. It was not a problem for him though. He had most of the important treasures already equipped.
Dennis was a battle maniac through and through, meaning he was ready to fight at any given moment. If he didn't already have treasures equipped, he may suffer a big blow in a conflict.
Thus, Dennis was always ready!
He used his spiritual power and channeled it to the defensive item on him, which were his robes, and activated them.
An armour manifested over his clothes and next, Dennis took off his bracelet and held it tightly with his dominant hand.
A lot of spiritual power was channeled to it and the bracelet glowed with a silver sheen.
Lith could feel the changes happening behind his back and knowing Dennis was ready, exclaimed, "Prepare for assault in 3…"
As Lith did a countdown, from the dark passage in front, a faint something closed in on the two.
The rumbling intensified and the aura of death loomed over Lith and Dennis's head.
"Haaaaaa…" Dennis channeled all his power into his fist with his scream.
Lith continued with his countdown, "…2… 1!"
RUMBLE! RUMBLE!
BOOOOOOOM!
The two punched the boulder with all their might and a loud shockwave spread through the passage.
The shockwave passed through Shi and Hyunsuk, making their hearts skip a beat and their ears ring with a whistling sound.
The passage around them cracked and in no time, they saw the ground beneath them start to collapse.
Crack… Crack…
"Ahhhh!" Shi yelled as his ear felt a splitting pain. He clutched his head and squatted down.
Hyunsuk felt a loud whistle in his ears and covered it with his palms, trying to suppress the sound.
Nothing helped them.
Crack… Crack…
The two failed to notice the deeping cracks beneath them. It was dark and their entire focus was on their splitting pain.
In a few seconds…
The ground collapsed and the two fell down.
"Ahhhhhh!" Shi yelled.
"Noooo!" Hyunsuk exclaimed too.
The two fell down and thought their demise was near, but to luck would have it, splashed down into a water body of some sort.
Their yells abruptly stopped and Shi, who was as unprepared as ever, widened his eyes in surprise.
He was alive! He didn't die!
Right as he thought that, in front of him, he saw two figures sinking down in the water.
Hyunsuk saw this too after he regained his senses.
The water around the figures got dyed and despite the low light, the two knew it was blood!
They did not even need to guess who they were and immediately began swimming towards them.
As Hyunsuk moved towards his sinking Master, he felt something shine in the corner of his eyes.
Turning to the source, Hyunsuk saw a crystal within a cave.
This cave was wide and had a floor without water on it!
Hyunsuk's luck was as good as ever and he notified Shi about it, then swam towards Lith.
Shi got Hyunsuk's signal and swimming towards Dennis, took hold of him and moved towards the cave.
The two eventually rescued Lith and Dennis and went to the floor within the cave.
"Huwaaaa!" Shi gasped and dragged Dennis on the cave's floor.
Hyunsuk reached the place as well and with Shi's help, placed Lith above the floor.
Shi breathed heavily and after giving a hand to Hyunsuk, brought him out of the water.
While Hyunsuk gasped for air, Shi turned to look at his Master's condition.
In this very instant…
"MASTER!"
