Chapter 1210: Earthquake?
Did Kameda Saburo really think that with just a mere imitation of the Muramasa demon sword in hand, he could have me at his mercy?
That's simply too ridiculous!
Seeing that Xu Hao was completely indifferent to his threats, Kameda Saburo jumped up like a rabbit whose tail had been stepped on, angrily shouting, "Xu Hao, don't push me too far! I've tolerated you for long enough!"
"Then go ahead and make your move. I'd like to see how powerful this Sacrificial Fire Altar really is," Xu Hao replied with a light smile.
"Hmph! Taste my blade!"
Kameda Saburo couldn't stand Xu Hao's taunts and immediately charged towards him, brandishing his katana. Meanwhile, Xu Hao, undaunted, swung the Sacrificial Fire Altar towards Kameda Saburo.
Not knowing the proper way to use the Sacrificial Fire Altar, Xu Hao could only wield it in this manner.
In the eyes of everyone, the flames did not leave the Sacrificial Fire Altar but instead split into several smaller flames.
Seeing these small flames, Kameda Saburo laughed heartily, "Ha ha, just mere flames! I can snuff them out in no time!"
Saying this, filled with fury and utter confidence, he swung his blade towards the small flames.
This was the first time anyone had seen such a thing, and they didn't know its exact power. But Florando kindly warned, "Be careful. Don't get hurt by that thing."
"Ha ha ha, don't worry! How could these small flames possibly hurt me? The heat from these flames is not even as hot as what my lighter could produce!"
Kameda Saburo confidently slashed at the small flames, and to everyone's astonishment, his katana began to melt rapidly, as if it were ice meeting a fierce fire!
The temperature of the flames wasn't even high, yet they could melt steel. How outrageous!
"Ah! My katana! The one I spent a fortune on to acquire from the Muramasa Family! Xu Hao, how dare you destroy my katana! I'll fight you to the death!" Kameda Saburo yelled incessantly, regretting immensely the power of Xu Hao's small flames.
Everyone else was also stunned. The flame's heat was so contained!
The outer part wasn't hot, as the heat was almost entirely absorbed within.
How was this even possible?
Was the outside just the skin of the flame?
But this was clearly just an ordinary flame!
No one could understand what was happening, but it was undoubtedly true that Kameda Saburo had been tricked by Xu Hao, or rather, the Sacrificial Fire Altar had deceived Kameda Saburo.
As Kameda Saburo screamed in agony, suddenly, the ground shook!
Everyone there was a Martial Artist, highly sensitive to changes in the environment. Seeing the ground tremble, someone hurriedly said, "What's going on? Why did the ground just shake?"
Everyone looked at the ground beneath their feet uncertainly. If it were shaking above, they might think it was Prince Mitford and his posse's doing, but now the ground had shaken!
"Could it be an earthquake? Run!"
Velsky immediately conjectured it was an earthquake and rushed towards the exit, trying to get out from there.
If it were within ten meters underground and without tall structures above, he might not have to panic. With his strength and the Werewolf Clan's unique claws, they could dig their way out in time.
But now, they were dozens of meters underground, with the towering Sun Temple above. If an earthquake happened, it would be unstoppable!
So he urgently needed to get out in advance.
At this moment, the ground shook again, and the frequency of the tremors was increasing, the amplitude becoming larger, only to quickly subside again.
"This isn't an earthquake!"
Xu Hao immediately stopped Velsky from running out and said, "It looks like something is about to emerge from underground, and it's something very large."
Upon hearing Xu Hao's words, everyone paused for a moment and then, recalling the earlier occurrences, suddenly thought Xu Hao's words made a lot of sense.
But what exactly is trying to come out, causing the ground to shake so violently?
How large could it possibly be?
Instantly, everyone felt a chill run down their spine. Though they were immensely powerful in front of ordinary people, in the face of unknown danger, each of them felt somewhat helpless.
Velsky then said, "Young Master Xu, let's retreat, everyone retreat. Whatever it is that wants to come out, let it be dealt with once we're above. Down here is essentially its home ground; we mustn't be careless not knowing how powerful it is."
Xu Hao nodded slightly and said, "Alright, let's talk above."
Florando and the others finished their discussion, and then he quickly moved forward to open the door.
However, to his astonishment, he couldn't budge the door!
No matter how much strength he used, he couldn't pull the door open. He was even worried that if he exerted too much force, he might end up damaging the indentations on the door.
