System: Replicating The Heavens-Chapter 471: Ch : Begone!

Inside the palace, Alex arrived in front of a huge hall. This was the Central Hall where all meetings used to be held, where countless vital decisions were made and executed by the Lord and Elders of the Immortal Herb Palace.

Alex pushed open the giant door, and what welcomed him was a spacious hall, decorated lavishly. Moreover, he could see two rows of golden chairs, arranged horizontally, on the left and right sides of a giant throne.

As Alex entered the Central Hall, he saw a handsome man sitting on the giant throne. This handsome man's gaze was fixed on Alex as he approached.

"Is resistance futile? How much longer must this catastrophe last? If I fall, who then will stand against these wretched people? What will happen to my Immortal Herb Palace?"

A wry smile played upon the handsome man's lips, yet he remained seated. Alex couldn't sense any sign of energy or aura on this man's body, but for some reason, he instinctively wanted to stay far away from him.

Why?

Because he felt threatened.

Alex was confused. He didn't understand the meaning behind this man's words. Was he speaking to him or someone else?

Just as Alex wanted to ask something, a colossal shadow suddenly swept past him.

Alex was stunned, for he could sense a destructive force radiating from this figure. Moreover, this figure's aura was so crushing that Alex felt like a huge mountain was trying to crush him down.

Fortunately, Alex was able to hold on, perhaps because he was not the target of the newly appeared figure.

He watched as the figure closed in on his adversary, but the handsome man sat there undisturbed. He didn't stand or move. His eyes were fixed on the figure who approached him fiercely.

BOOM!

Right when the figure arrived before the handsome man, a powerful aura erupted from the handsome man's body. He still didn't move an inch, yet he exuded immense prowess, so much so that Alex simply couldn't imagine the extent of this person's strength.

In his eyes, this handsome young man was simply too terrifying. It was as if he could kill Alex with just a simple gesture, without truly making a move.

Although this was just an instinctive sensation, Alex chose to believe in his instincts this time.

Earlier, whenever someone appeared before his eyes, they seemed able to see and interact with him, as if he had entered a strange paradox where the past and present were connected.

But this time, it was different. He seemed to be witnessing the events of the past while standing in the present. There was no interaction or physical connection with the past.

Alex realized this when the colossal shadow brushed past him earlier, aiming to attack the handsome man. However, he couldn't shake the feeling that, unlike the shadowy figure, the handsome young man could actually see him.

A strange and indescribable feeling rose in Alex's heart. He could clearly see the scene unfolding before his eyes, yet it felt distant and unreal, like a dream he couldn't wake up from. Still, when the handsome young man's gaze swept in his direction, Alex's heart skipped a beat. It felt like those eyes could truly see him, piercing through time and space itself.

Alex's body trembled slightly, and for a moment, he didn't know what to think of this situation.

On the other hand, as a powerful aura erupted from the handsome man's body, the giant shadowy figure was pressed to the ground without resistance. He tried his best to struggle and break free from the huge pressure descending on him; however, no matter how hard he tried, he wasn't able to even lift his finger.

Perhaps, he knew his death was near. So, he roared at the handsome man and snorted coldly, "So what if you kill me today. Can you kill the Lord? You shouldn't have taken 'that' in the first place. Now that you refuse to hand it over, your Immortal Herb Palace is destined to be destroyed by the Lord. Prepare to run, for my Lord is coming personally this time."

The handsome man's expression changed, but then he deeply breathed and flicked his fingers, directly smashing the giant shadowy figure into a meat patty.

After that, the handsome man clenched his fist tightly, raised his head, and roared, "Curse you, bastards!"

Rumble~

At this moment, Alex heard a rumbling sound from outside.

Soon, he saw several colossal shadowy figures entering the hall, surrounding the handsome man sitting on the throne.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

A faint sound of footsteps echoed from outside, and to Alex's shock, he saw another colossal figure entering the hall.

However, as he entered, all the shadowy figures retreated a step back and knelt.

The colossal figure that had just entered the hall was wearing a full-body silver armor. His face was hidden behind the silver helmet.

"This...?"

Alex's heart trembled as the figure in silver armor suddenly turned in his direction. Alex felt a pair of cold eyes looking at him directly. But unlike the handsome man, Alex's instincts told him that this silver-armored man was unable to see him.

And it was indeed the truth. The man in silver armor was unable to see Alex, but he could feel someone beyond his time standing there and watching every scene unfolding. Moreover, he could also sense that the person watching everything was too weak.

"Begone!"

As the silver-armored man spoke, Alex felt his surroundings being suppressed by an immensely powerful energy tide, and the scene actually shattered before his eyes like a mirror.

In the next instant, Alex realized he was still inside the hall, but everything had changed. There were no longer any shadowy figures, and the throne was empty as well. The grand hall was also in ruins, completely shattered and filled with signs of destruction.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Suddenly, Alex once again heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the hall. But these footsteps were different. They sounded soft and slow.

Creak~

After a few seconds, the gate of the hall slowly opened, and Serena's graceful figure appeared before Alex's eyes.
