Chapter 3148Just as Bone Cliff was delightfully waiting for his soul remnant to perish, a cough snapped him back to
reality..
“Ugh! Well, that wasn’t exceptionally potent, although it did bury me and left me looking as though I
haven’t showered in days.”
Bone Cliff saw Jared climbing out of the scorched earth. Jared’s entire body was scorched black, as
though he had been burnt, but his Golem Body remained intact. The earlier assault had proven unable
to damage Jared’s Golem Body.
The draconic energy that Jared had absorbed had also enhanced the capabilities of his Golem Body.
Jared stood up, dusted himself, and fixed his hair.
“Darn it, my hair is all messed up.”
He lifted his head to look at Bone Cliff provocatively. Bone Cliff was on the verge of losing his sanity
when he saw that Jared was completely unscathed. That had been his final desperate move to
eliminate Jared at the cost of his own life.
Yet, now, he was on the verge of death while Jared was still alive and well. How could this be?
“Argh! No!” Bone Cliff began screaming. Jared had driven an ancient cultivator mad. When Cloud saw
that Jared was all right, he yelled in excitement, “Mr. Chance is fine! He’s fine!”
“Mr. Chance will surely have a bright future,” Montane Daemon remarked.
Everyone stared at Jared in utter disbelief. They could not fathom how he had managed to survive
such a terrifying assault. Jared looked at Bone Cliff, who had gone mad. He smirked and said, “An eye
for an eye…”A ball of flame materialized in his palm. With a single wave of his hand, he engulfed Bone Cliff in a
searing fire.
“Argh!” Bone Cliff screamed agonizingly. Even a soul remnant would feel pain when burned by demonic
fire. Amidst his anguished cries, Bone Cliff’s soul remnant went up in smoke, leaving no trace of his
existence behind.
Following Bone Cliff’s demise, the island beneath Jared trembled and sank into the depths of the Night
Sea.
At the same time, Jared leaped and whistled. The divine turtle that had submitted to Jared appeared
and let him land on its back.
In no time, the island was gone, and not far from it, a few heads popped up from the surface of the sea.
They were Fayzon, Zordey, and the others who: had been contentedly absorbing spiritual energy
below.
The assault had roused them, and as the island sank, they desperately swam to the water’s surface
with all their strength.
Upon seeing the disappearance of the island, they panicked. Furthermore, the spirit ship was already
dozens of miles away. All they could do was float in the water.
novelbinDespite their abilities as cultivators, flying was of no use without solid ground to launch from. Their only
alternatives were to either remain submerged in the water or swim to the spirit ship.
However, if any ferocious beasts were to attack them at this time, they would be sitting ducks. Jared,
on the turtle’s back, smiled faintly when he saw the cultivators..
“Friend, can you help us out? Can we sit on your divine turtle?” one of the cultivators asked.“Sure, hop on.”
Jared’s divine turtle was large, and it could take up to eight passengers. The cultivators started
climbing up the back of the divine turtle. After exchanging glances, Fayzon and Zordey steeled their
resolve and also climbed up.
“Get off! Who said you could come up here?” Jared spoke. Fayzon and Zordey were momentarily
stunned. Zordey said, “Don’t go too far, Jared! Don’t forget that I secured those tickets to the ship for
you.”
“That’s because you were an idiot. Stay in the water. You can’t get up here.”
That infuriated Zordey so much that he wished he could skin Jared alive.
