Chaplain!

Chapter 1154: 1151

But his agility had not diminished with his smaller size; on the contrary, he became extremely nimble, passing several Carter Company guards undetected.

After all, the Bone Shrinking Skill was the signature secret technique of the Divine Thief Sect, which only the sect leader and those chosen by the leader could cultivate.

Of course, such a mystical cultivation technique was not something just anyone could learn; it required talent and had to be started from the age of five.

The method of cultivating the Bone Shrinking Skill was horrifying, as it involved breaking each of the 206 bones in the body within a month.

Even with unique medicinal herbs, the chances of survival were exceedingly slim!

Therefore…

This divine skill was on the brink of extinction!

Especially after the Divine Thief Sect had been expelled from the ancient martial arts world by its various powers, their influence had dwindled to the point of being negligible.

And Daniel was the master of the sect today!

He was, in truth, not much different from a loner!

“Ding-a-ling-a-ling…”

Just then, as Daniel was dodging guards, he accidentally blocked an infrared beam, setting off the alarm for the vault in the back.

This caused Daniel’s face to change drastically; if he were discovered, he would certainly have nowhere to bury his body!

“Someone has infiltrated!”

“Commence search immediately!”

“Yes…”

Quickly, twenty of Carter Company’s guards responsible for guarding the Spirit Gathering Grass split up, ten of them starting a search for the intruder.

“Tap tap tap…”

The sound of those approaching footsteps covered Daniel’s forehead in a cold sweat!

Even his heart started to beat faster.

He was inherently faint-hearted—how could he stand such a scare?

The footsteps coming ever closer—they were now less than ten meters away—were especially worrisome because there was no object to hide behind near him crouching behind the wall.

Even with the Bone Shrinking Skill, he couldn’t become invisible!

It was no exaggeration to say that if someone came over, they would definitely discover him instantly. If that happened, forget about stealing the Spirit Gathering Grass; he would likely be hacked to pieces!

“Oh heavens!”

“Jade Emperor, Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva!”

“Save me!”

“I can’t die young!”

“I’ve always been generous in my offerings. Why am I having such bad luck now?”

Anxious and frightened, Daniel had no solution. Listening to the footsteps that were getting closer, he could only silently pray in his heart.

When he felt someone was less than a meter away, even seeing the tip of their shoe, he was so scared that he shook all over!

The feeling was like being on a roller coaster with ups and downs.

He was close to cursing out loud!

“Kill!”

But just as that person was about to turn around, two incomprehensible sounds suddenly rang out in the auction hall.

Soon Frank Carter’s roar followed: “All guards, assemble!”

Upon receiving the order, the guard who was about to find Daniel also quickly ran towards the entrance.

This made Daniel breathe a sigh of relief.

He was sweating profusely, feeling his body go limp with relief.

He kept patting his chest,

Trying to calm his breathing down!

Who knew if there were still any Carter Company guards watching over the Spirit Gathering Grass?

But he was in luck, as all the guards had rushed to the front, leaving no one in the back.

When he saw the Spirit Gathering Grass in the glass cabinet, exuding rich Spiritual Energy, his eyes filled with a greedy glint!

After all, as an ancient warrior, no one could resist a treasure of heaven and earth that could directly enhance strength and fortify the organs!

But he was smart and well aware that without escaping the encirclement, the Spirit Gathering Grass was his life-saving talisman.

So how could he dare to be careless?
