Chapter 2903 Enter
Jerison introduced himself, saying, “I’m Jerison Tall, the third son of the Tall family from the far north. You must have heard of our family, right? Why is everyone gathered here? What’s the occasion?”
It was clear that Jerison intended to make everyone fear the Tall family’s influence and respect him. However, after he made his introduction, everyone simply ignored him.
In fact, the formidable cultivators present regarded him with disdain and emitted icy snorts. Jerison felt humiliated, but he couldn’t vent his anger at them.
After all, his subordinates were merely at Fifth Level Body Fusion Realm. If they got involved in a conflict with someone at Eighth Level Body Fusion Realm, he would be at a disadvantage. As no one paid him any heed, Jerison cast Vasily an awkward look. “Vasily, what happened here?”
The only person Jerison was familiar with in this gathering was Vasily. They had once been adversaries, but there was no longer any reason for them to engage in combat.
“The ice mountain collapsed, revealing a cave. It’s likely the location of the treasure,” Vasily said, pointing at the dark cave. Jerison approached the cave and glanced inside. It was dark, and he couldn’t see anything.
“If this could be the location of the treasure, we should head in and take a look,” Jerison said, turning to the crowd.
He couldn’t understand why these strong cultivators showed no signs of heading in. Everyone looked at Jerison. Despite being at Third Level Body Fusion Realm, he was arrogant.
Seeing that no one bothered to respond to him, Jerison let out a disdainful snort and said, “You’re all nothing but a bunch of cowards. If y’all won’t go in, I’ll go in myself.” He then instructed his subordinates, “Follow me closely, and don’t wander off.”
One of Jerison’s subordinates cautioned, “Mr. Jerison, it’s not wise to enter unknown caves like this.”
Jerison refused to listen to his advice. As he was stubborn, Jared spoke up. “The cave is saturated with frost energy. Rushing in recklessly could be perilous.”
After all, Quinley had rescued Feenix and Aislin, both of whom were currently residing in the Tall residence. If Jared did nothing to prevent Jerison from embarking on a potentially perilous path, it wouldn’t be considerate of him.
It would be unkind of Jared to stand idly by as Jerison obstinately pursued a dangerous course of action.
He owed Quinley a favor. Quinley was very strict with Jerison, but Jared could tell that she held a deep affection for him.
“Frost energy?” Jerison was initially stunned but soon burst into laughter. “The Talls do not fear frost energy. We’ve trained in techniques that make us well- suited for cold environments.”
The Tall family’s cultivation techniques harnessed the frost energy from the far north to enhance their cultivation, enabling them to utilize frost energy effectively, even freezing their adversaries when needed.
Jerison wasn’t afraid of the frost energy. He strode into the cave. The Tall family’s subordinates had no choice but to go after him. Seeing that Jerison had entered the cave, Jared waved his hand and urged, “Let’s head in, too.”
Once Jared and the others ventured into the cave, more cultivators began to follow suit. They were much more at ease knowing that someone was leading the way.
The cave was dark and chilly.
As they continued their journey, they came across countless ice crystals adorning the cave walls that illuminated the entire cave very brightly.
The cave was huge, sloping downward. Although the entrance was relatively modest, the further they went in, the more space there was.
“Be careful and put your guard up. There are Demonic Cultivators among us,” Jared whispered to Viola, Cloud, and the rest.
