'We can't,' Roan said. 'In the end, this guy has too much energy inside himself. He is also extremely old, so I don't think threats will work at all. If we truly manage to capture him somehow, we risk him throwing caution to the wind and self explode.

Eagon narrowed his eyes. He absolutely would self-explode and bring everyone down with him. Any cultivator who had lived long enough would do so. 'So we can only look and not do anything?'
