Chapter 540: Visit the Royal Treasury?

The southern city wall of the palace erupted with a deafening blast, flames soaring into the sky.

The intense flames were blindingly white as the shockwave plunged underground, causing the entire city and the mountains behind it to tremble.

"Boom" — a flood-like sound resounded. Looking up, one could see the age-old snow of Mount Loki crumbling away and rushing down the mountain.

However, the explosion, precisely directed, was confined to this section of the city wall and didn't cause any civilian casualties.

Even the cluster of buildings behind the city walls within the palace grounds hardly collapsed.

Su Lun looked at the huge hole, dozens of meters deep, that had been blasted in front of him and raised his eyebrows — the explosion was almost as expected.

In his Soul Perception, the waves of about a thousand living souls that were previously hidden within this magic barrier instantly vanished. A dense "ash mist" floated above the debris.
