Feenix was also shocked by the scene unfolding before her eyes. Sensing the overwhelming power emanating from the beamn of light, she grew concerned that Jared might struggle to withstand it. Hence, she decided to assist him.
However, just as Feenix moved to aid Jared in mitigating some of the force, the beam unleashed a powerful attack on her, violently propelling her away.
That beam of light shone on Jared, subjecting his body to a rapid metamorphosis. accompanied by excruciating pain. Beads of cold sweat formed on his forehead as he endured the torment.
Jared gritted his teeth and remained motionless. He understood that it was a pivotal moment. If he could endure the pain, he would achieve a complete breakthrough.
It would not only amplify his power but also enhance his physique. Gradually, a white cloud materialized in the sky. The beam of light shone on the cloud, transforming it into a magnificent rainbow celestial cloud.
Jared, who was sitting below the cloud, emanated an aura reminiscent of an immortal. The pain in his body gradually dissipated after some time. Following that, he felt as if he were enveloped in the soothing warmth of sunlight, akin to immersing himself in a rejuvenating hot spring.
“Look, the beam of light is changing!” Wayne shouted. Just then, the energy within the beam of light became tame; it was no longer wreaking havoc with its terrifying might. Meanwhile, Jared felt a powerful updraft lifting him off the ground, carrying him toward the rainbow celestial cloud above.
With his body bathed in a radiant golden glow, he moved higher and higher as if he were becoming a divine entity. Soon, Jared passed through the celestial cloud and stepped on it. In that instant, he sensed an overwhelming surge of power coursing through him.
With a graceful motion, he summoned the Dragonslayer Sword into his hand. Yet, to his astonishment, as he infused the Power of Dragons into the sword, it started to tremble violently..
The connection between his mind and the sword spirit within the Dragonslayer Sword encountered unexpected resistance, hindering their once-harmonious union.
“What… What is happening?” Jared furrowed his brows Despite his attempts to intensify the infusion of power, the tremors within the Dragonslayer Sword grew stronger as if it was wrestling with inner turmoil.
Eventually, Jared had no choice but to keep the sword. He could not comprehend why the sword’s affinity with him had diminished after his breakthrough.
With the Dragonslayer Sword safely stowed away, he turned his focus to the Dragon Bell. In the past, his lower cultivation level had nearly. cost him his life when he forcefully activated the bell.
Since his cultivation level had increased, he desired to test his ability to wield the Dragon Bell’s power. Jared took the Dragon Bell from his Storage Ring and held it in his hand. After staring at it. for a moment, he tossed the bell high into the air.
Suddenly, the bell began to expand in size and twirled in the air. With the hammer gripped tightly in his hand, Jared leaped forward and forcefully struck the Dragon Bell.
Chime! A resounding sound emanated from the Dragon Bell. The Gate of Fire trembled violently, and the fabric of time and space within the secret realm underwent rapid and drastic changes.
The once desolate desert in the Gate of Fire transformed before their eyes, shifting at a visible and rapid pace. Lush oases and verdant forests emerged, painting a breathtaking new panorama.
The bewildering transformation left Chester and Wayne dumbfounded. Despite spending many years in the Gate of Fire, they had never witnessed such a profound change in its environment.
After all, each of the Eight Major Secret Realms was intricately designed according to the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, each with its unique features and geographical settings..
Yet, the current environment was undergoing an unprecedented metamorphosis. Just as Chester and Wayne grappled with their disbelief, Jared swung the hammer once more, striking the Dragon Bell with renewed force.
Although Jared only experienced a slight tingling sensation in his hand that time around, the resonating sound from the bell intensified.
