Chapter 280: Return [1]

Clang—!

The moment my sword met the core, a dull metallic sound rang out as my sword vibrated from the shock. Accompanying the sound was a small ripple that began to spread all over the Monolith. 

As the ripple spread, all forms of noises began to stop, as countless eyes directed themselves towards me. 

Crack—!

Not long after, a subtle cracking sound rang out. Lowering my head, terrifying energy enveloped the area around me, making it hard for me to breathe. 

"Hueeek" 

A strange noise escaped from my mouth as I tried my best to breathe. Unfortunately for me, the more time passed, the more difficult it became for me to breathe. 

That was to be expected though.
