While Wrey and the others opened the gate,. Matthew and Yashur were a short distance away from the abyss, having tirelessly searched for Jared for countless days.
They grew increasingly anxious since they could not find Jared no matter what. “Master, Mr. Chance didn’t get into an accident, right?” Archer asked Matthew. “What are you talking about? Mr. Chance will be fine.” Matthew shot Archer a piercing glare. “Looks like I’ll need to play my trump card…”
Great Diviner took a deep breath before retrieving a bunch of copper coins from his pocket. He tossed the coins into the air. “Get into formation!” he yelled, prompting the disciples of Divination Sect to swiftly assemble into a formation resembling the eight trigrams.
Each disciple caught a copper coin in their palms. In unison, the disciples drew a drop of blood. essence from the middle of their brows and dropped it onto the surface of the copper coins. Meanwhile, Great Diviner struck his own chest with an unwavering force.
Pfft! Blood sprayed out of his lips, materializing instantly into a billowing screen that unfurled within the air. Immediately, the coins held by the disciples. started to glow, lighting up the red screen.
Gradually, a silhouette appeared on the curtain and quickly became clear. The scene depicted Jared fighting the phantoms with his Dragonslayer Sword. “It’s Mr. Chance! It’s Mr. Chance!” Skyler yelled excitedly. “It’s that valley! The valley within the abyss!”
Matthew also discovered that Jared was indeed in that valley. The scene only appeared for a fleeting moment before dissipating. The copper coins that the Divination Sect disciples were holding shattered into countless fragments.
Meanwhile, Great Diviner collapsed on the ground, heavily injured. Reacting swiftly, Yashur extended his hand and channeled a surge of martial energy into Great Diviner’s body.
“I’m relieved after seeing that Mr. Chance is fine. Mr. Songscloud, don’t worry about me. Hurry and look for Mr. Chance. I’ll recover after a few days,” muttered Great Diviner weakly.
“Okay. Rest here. We shall return quickly.” Yashur nodded. Yashur and Matthew hastened toward the abyss, leaving Great Diviner and the Divination Sect disciples behind. Great Diviner suffered serious internal injuries after unleashing his ultimate move.
Within the abyss, Wrey and the rest finally opened the gate. They were brimming with excitement at the thought of killing the phantoms and bolstering their powers.
However, as the gate swung open gradually, a collective sense of astonishment befell them. The valley lay before them, a barren expanse bereft of even a trace of the phantoms..
“This doesn’t make sense. Why aren’t there any phantoms in sight?” Wrey voiced his bewilderment. “Let’s enter and see if anything happened at the mouth of the cave,” suggested Hugh, planning to check out the cave where the phantoms emerged from.
Yet, as they walked toward the depths of the valley, they were confronted by someone barring their way. Everyone was shocked when the person turned around.
“Jared?” they exclaimed in unison with a look of disbelief. They assumed that Jared had died after jumping into that black hole. Little did they expect him to still be alive.
Apparently, Jared was the one who killed every last phantom in the valley. “You aren’t dead yet, you rascal?” Wrey exclaimed in astonishment. “How can I possibly die first when you’re still alive?” Nathan revealed a cold smirk.
“Hmph! So what if you’re still alive? You won’t be able to live for long. This time, I will personally kill you and watch as you’re reduced to pulp.” This time, Wrey was determined to witness Jared’s demise with his own eyes. “I’m afraid you aren’t capable enough to kill me.”
Jared remained calm, unfazed even in the face of Wrey and the group of experts from the hidden realm. Those people posed no threat to Jared, who had the Divine Bow in his possession.
