Chapter 1981“Her soul was incomplete. She's fine now,” Baal uttered calmly.
Evangeline stood up, looking somewhat bewildered at Jared and the others. At that moment, she had
some vague impressions of Jared but, at the same time, also felt as if she knew nothing about him.
Seeing that, Fernando and Astrid hurriedly took Evangeline away. Evangeline still remembered
Fernando, as they were both from the Gunderson family, after all.
“Young man, have you decided? Do you want me to pass on my cultivation method to you, teach you
martial arts, or provide you with an exceptional weapon?” Baal asked Jared.
Unexpectedly, Jared shook his head.
When it came to cultivation methods, his Focus Technique was a superior divine martial art. As for
weapons, his Dragonslayer Sword was a top-grade spiritual sword.
Seeing Jared shake his head, Baal frowned slightly, “What exactly do you want?”
“We don't want any of those things. I just want to know who my father is. Can you help me with that?”
Jared asked while looking at Baal.
“That's easy. Just squeeze out a drop of your blood essence!” Baal replied casually.
novelbinJared furrowed his brows, and a drop of essence blood slowly seeped from his forehead and eventually
floated in midair. Baal extended a finger and gently touched the drop of blood essence.
Then, the droplet of blood essence was instantly absorbed into Baal's body.
Immediately afterward, Jared witnessed Baal's facial expression changing dramatically from surprise to
shock and finally to fear.
Even Baal's breathing became much more rapid at that point.
That observation left Jared somewhat at a loss, as he didn't understand why Baal would react in that
manner.
After a long while, Baal finally let out a long sigh, his forehead already covered in a cold sweat.
“Mr. Baal, do you know who my father is now?” Jared asked anxiously.
The blood demon nodded. Jared was overjoyed. He had always wanted to know who his father was
and the truth behind his identity. Why did so many people refer to me as the son of a dragon? Could
my father really be a member of the Draconians?
However, just as Jared waited for Baal to answer him, the latter slowly said, “Now I understand why
that old devil taught you Sacred Light Fist. That old guy must've noticed something too. I know who
your father is, but I cannot say. Still, I can tell you this. Your father is someone even I admire deeply
and cannot hope to match.”
Jared was dumbfounded after hearing that because Baal was already akin to an immortal, in his
opinion. With Baal's capabilities, he could perhaps wipe out the existence of the mundane world with awave of his hand. Yet, my father is someone even Baal reveres and cannot even match. Who exactly is
my father?
Amidst Jared's consideration, Baal suddenly knitted his brows, appearing very unwell as a menacing
expression flashed across his face.
“Mr. Baal, what's wrong?” Jared hurriedly asked.
“The power of the laws of nature is too overbearing, making breathing difficult for me,” Baal answered
with a frown.
Now that the altar was destroyed and the recovery of spiritual energy had vanished, the laws of nature
would suppress beings like Baal with more formidable abilities to a greater extent. If Baal stayed in the
mundane world for an extended period, his cultivation might be ruined.
“I am also a cultivator of the divine martial art, so why can't I sense the power of the laws of nature?”
Jared found it very strange. Why didn't he, a spiritual energy cultivator, feel the suppression from the
laws of nature?
“Are you kidding? With your bloodline, the laws of nature are nothing. It wouldn't dare—” Realizing he
was about to slip up, Baal immediately caught himself. Then, he uttered, “I'm leaving this place now. If
fate allows, I hope to see you in Ethereal Realm.”
With that, Baal reached out and slashed at the air, tearing up the space and revealing a black hole.
“You should come with me. You won't be able to survive here, and if there's a chance, I'll help yourestore your physical body.” Baal said, taking the soul of Lunarius Palace's holy maiden with him and
jumping directly into the black hole.
“Mr. Baal, what is Ethereal Realm?” Jared wanted to inquire further regarding the details and location of
Ethereal Realm.
However, Baal was gone, and the black hole had already disappeared without a trace.
