"Wh-what in the absolute hell is this?" Adam murmured, his body trembling in shock as his soldiers fell dead one after another by the mere touch of lightning.
The crimson lightning was strangely avoiding him, yet the insurmountable pressure he felt from its mere presence was enough to make his heart pound like war drums.
Once the lightning vanished, out of the half million people present inside the pillar, only he and Taranis remained standing.
"N-no way... if he possessed such strength, why did he let me torture him?" Adam mumbled.
Do you know how dangerous it is to torture the strongest cultivator of the Western Continent? It is a miracle you walked out of there alive.
His father's words echoed in his mind. It was only then that he realized that even though he was the one torturing Voltrex, he was also the one at Voltrex's mercy. If he wanted, Voltrex could have killed him without even lifting a finger.
The realization struck him like lightning, and he fell onto his back.
