All the phantoms crawled around the shadow clone fearfully. The shadow clone emanated such darkness that he looked as if he donned a suit of black armor.
As a vortex started spinning within the shadow clone, the lethal intent around him was absorbed into his body! Suddenly, the shadow clone opened his eyes, which were glinting coldly.
When the phantoms passed by the shadow clone, they stopped their movements and knelt down simultaneously because they seemed to have sensed something.
Watching the kneeling phantoms, the shadow clone slowly stood up, his jet-black hair fluttering in the wind. “This abyss is such a good place. It’s a pity that I have to be summoned back so soon.”
As the shadow clone slowly raised his head, an exquisite face was revealed. If Jared were there to witness it, he would surely be surprised because it was none other than Skylar, who had fought him for a long time but then suddenly disappeared!
Skylar was sent by Tanner to cultivate in the abyss, but he was now summoned back because he was needed for the latter’s recovery of spiritual energy. As Skylar felt the lethal intent surging through his body, his eyes filled with excitement. When he clenched his fists, a raging aura burst forth.
“Jared, I wonder if you’ve missed me. If I ever run into you again, I’ll let you have a taste of hell… By that time, the entire mundane world will bow to me. I am a Demonic Cultivator, I have the Inferno Devil’s Form, and I am born to rule…”
Skylar cackled arrogantly, his voice echoing in the valley. Beneath him, a large number of phantoms were sprawled on the ground, trembling….
As Skylar slowly raised his right hand, the surrounding lethal intent started to swarm toward him. The abyss, which was originally dark, began to brighten up all of a sudden. After all the lethal intent was absorbed by Skylar with his palm, a gigantic black vortex. was formed! Skylar glanced at the kneeling phantoms and smiled. “Farewell, my subjects. You are free to slaughter everything you see now…”
With that said, Skylar slowly walked toward the black vortex. Soon, he disappeared within it. After Skylar disappeared, the phantoms crawled out of the abyss. Meanwhile, Wrey and the others couldn’t find Jared in the secret realm. Instead, they were attacked by the phantoms constantly, which
was extremely frustrating. “This is f*cking strange. Why does it feel like we can’t kill these phantoms? There seems to be more of them as time passes!” Wrey cursed.
Instead of seeing any trace of Jared for the past few days, they encountered several groups of phantoms. Although these phantoms were not very powerful and could be easily dealt with when they joined forces, this endless battle had already exhausted them. Disciples from every sect had suffered injuries!
Most importantly, killing these phantoms wast not beneficial to them at all! If the phantoms were demon beasts instead, they could at least obtain their beast cores by killing them! However, besides the fact that the phantoms. were annoying, killing them was a waste of energy!
“Looks like although there are abundant resources in this secret realm, there are too many phantoms. We can’t stay here for long…” Hugh said after killing a phantom with a palm strike. If they were to set up camp here in the future, they would be constantly bothered by ant overwhelming number of phantoms.
“Since we’ve been attacked by phantoms, I believe that Jared and his group wouldn’t fare well either. They might have been already killed by the phantoms…” Isaac speculated optimistically.
However, they had no idea that Jared wished to encounter more phantoms because all the phantoms that were previously in the area. where he and his group were hiding had long been vanquished..
In fact, Jared had to travel hundreds of miles to find phantoms every day. To Jared, those phantoms were the best resources!
