Chapter 58: Submit Again
The moment the ice falcon sealed the mark inside Ceug's body, that Risen Lord felt the interference and tried to reverse it at all costs — but failed.
But as soon as the ice shattered, urgency took over and he sacrificed part of his soul to use the mark and take control of Ceug's body.
He opened his eyes, then felt the fragment of his heart pulse, but it was badly damaged. Without delay, he stabilized it. But the damage would take time to heal.
Even with him here now, those injuries to the fragment were a major limiter. He snorted, and instantly, the entire abyssal nest froze over.
With a thought, he clearly sensed a presence unlike anything or anyone else. He turned in that direction, and it was like their gazes locked.
They could both feel each other easily. A twisted smile appeared on that face, he clenched his fists, and a large mass of black power was drawn toward him. It was the remains of the Risen Commanders, who had kept resisting to the very last second.
All Risen were created by and connected to some Risen Lord. But they could never even dream of resisting a different Risen Lord.
After absorbing everything, he decided to take a look.
His body was covered in darkness. With a single step, in an instant, he appeared hundreds of meters ahead.
Darian and the others only saw a pair of red eyes and a mass of black power suddenly approaching. That figure gave off the purest presence of death.
He stopped in front of Niara like distance meant nothing. His eyes locked onto the slug.
