Inside the dilapidated and empty main hall, the distorted spatial fluctuations above dissipated, revealing the ceiling.
Plants resembling tree roots coiled across the arched canopy, covering most of the carvings above. Judging from the exposed portions, the decorations were in the ancient elven style.
The floor of the main hall was still relatively level overall, but the erosion of time had carved countless shallow pits of varying sizes into it.
Clang~
The long sword rang crisply as Taimisha descended the steps before the stone chair and stopped dozens of meters from Su Xiao.
The main hall fell deathly silent. Water dripped from the withered roots above and fell between Su Xiao and Taimisha. When the droplet was still a meter from the floor, Taimisha released her aura.
A golden-black aura surged forth. Fine cracks appeared across the walls around the main hall. Taimisha's aura came crashing toward Su Xiao, accompanied by a sharp edge.
Just as that slash was about to reach Su Xiao, Taimisha, shrouded in the golden-black aura, suddenly stopped and desperately dodged to the right. She did not yet know that her nightmare had begun.
A scroll shattered in Su Xiao's hand. This eighth-tier scroll was called Abyssal Gaze. It had no offensive power, but could forcibly suppress an enemy.
Taimisha's golden-black aura dispersed. Two large hands formed from black mist appeared on either side of her, holding her in the center without actually grasping her. This was not a hard-control effect, so there was no resistance check. It was pure gravitational suppression.
Crack! Crack!
The air around Taimisha seemed ready to shatter. The Lord of the Tiger Hornets was so powerful that even an eighth-tier item could not completely bind her, but she could only move her arms a small distance.
Su Xiao was not surprised.
