The Invincible Fifth Heavenly King

Boom!

Boom!

Sections of the ceiling behind them crashed down one after another, completely sealing off the passage they had come through.

The Hero held Merlin in one arm as he ran.

Shadow was at the front, while Arthur, clad in heavy armor, brought up the rear. Tang Luo was nowhere to be seen.

There was no need to mention Shadow—his speed surpassed everyone else's. Arthur's speed was not slow either despite his heavy armor, at least above average. He would not be caught and crushed by the constantly collapsing ceiling behind them.

"Dead end ahead!"

The Hero's voice carried over the deafening crashes behind him. At the end of the passage stood a wall.

"I can feel wind. There's a gap—an exit!"

Shadow suddenly accelerated, reaching the end of the passage and beginning to feel around.

"It's open!"

The "ceiling boulders" behind them were drawing ever closer. Just as the Hero was about to smash the mechanism apart with a single sword strike, Shadow successfully opened a passage.

Everyone immediately rushed inside.

A thunderous crash sounded behind them, accompanied by Arthur's muffled groan.

"What happened?" the Hero asked, turning around.

"My shoulder got scraped. I can't feel it..." Arthur said.

He wore heavy armor, and the newly opened passage was extremely narrow. He had nearly failed to squeeze through. Had he not reacted in time and sacrificed part of his armor to dodge, it would not have been just a scrape.

Even so, the boulder came crashing down hard. After the numbness came intense pain.

Only a tough man like Arthur could endure it with nothing more than a muffled groan.

"I have medicine for wounds here." The Hero took some medicine from his spatial ring and used it on Arthur, treating his injuries
