Chapter 2968 Sit Down“This vortex can't be higher than ten feet. Let's jump and fly over it,” Kaison suggested before leaping
into the air with all his might.
“Don't be rash...” Jared uttered, but alas, his warning was too late.
Kaison was already in mid-air and flying over the vortex when he felt a powerful suction force.
Before he could react, however, he was pulled into the swirling hole and vanished without a trace.
“Mr. Kaison!” Upon seeing the situation, those from the Tall family began to panic and scream.
“Oh, sh*t! What on earth is this vortex, and why is it eating people?” Cloud exclaimed as a chill ran
down his spine. “I can't believe it can suck someone in from such a great height.”
The others, too, were just as baffled. No one had expected the vortex to be that powerful.
Jared walked toward the vortex and slowly moved closer after careful observation.
“Mr. Chance!” Cloud shouted.
“Don't worry. It's fine. This vortex is merely a small Teleportation Array. It won't harm us...” Jared said
before stepping right into it.
A white light instantly flashed across the man's eyes, and the next thing he knew, he was inside a
massive palace. Why does this palace feel so familiar... Oh! I saw it before in the illusionary realm, except this one is
way bigger and grander!
Kaison spotted Jared and wasted no time running toward him. “Mr. Chance!”
He had been so confused when he first got sucked into the vortex, but now that Jared was around, he
felt more at ease.
Soon, Cloud and the others were also teleported into the palace.
The group promptly pushed the door and entered the hall, only to spot a sea of cultivators sitting cross-
legged on the floor as though they were waiting for something.
Once Jared and the rest were inside, dozens of gazes landed on them.
“Those are from the Demon Seal Alliance...” Kaison muttered.
novelbinHe had noticed five people quietly meditating in front and instantly recognized them as the Demon Seal
Alliance members.
Just then, someone called out to Jared, “Here! Come here!”
Jared turned to the voice and realized that the person was someone he had saved before—Beau Yule.
Having met a familiar face, Jared walked toward Beau, eager to ask him what on earth was happening. If these people have come for the treasure, why are they sitting and meditating now? Why would
anyone want to cultivate in a place like this?
“What a coincidence! Fate has brought us together again, huh?” Beau said smilingly.
“It sure has. By the way, what are you guys doing here? Aren't you looking for the treasure?” Jared
asked.
“Sit down first and tell your companions to do the same. Don't wander around,” Beau whispered. “If
you're still not seated after three minutes, you'll be punished and lose the right to find the treasure.”
Jared was even more perplexed. “What do you mean by that?”
Is someone controlling the treasure hunt? Is that it?
Just as Jared was still trying to make sense of the situation, an old man's voice suddenly rang out.
“Newcomers, please take your seats immediately. Otherwise, you'll be booted out and lose your
eligibility to obtain the treasure...”
Jared froze in his tracks. Wait a minute... That voice is very familiar! Whether it was in the thatched hut
or illusionary realm, the elderly man I met sounded just like that! Argh... Is this old guy the elder of
Archaic Body cultivators or not?
Even though he didn't know the elderly man's true identity or what was happening, Jared decided to
abide by the rules. “Hurry up and take your seats. Stop moving around...”
Kaison, Cloud, and the others listened to Jared and hastily did as instructed.
