The man looked young and aloof, yet the aura he exuded was a powerful one. Despite his efforts in suppressing his strength, his domineering air was undeniable to those around him.
“Pablo Quimar?”
Dalton furrowed his brows at the sight of the newcomer.
Rosetta and Igor were equally shocked.
“It’s been a long while, Dalton. I’m surprised that you can still recognize me,” Pablo said with a nonchalant smile.
“Of course I can. I’ll never forget that face of yours.”
Dalton’s eyes burned with rage as he stared at Pablo:
“You know, I’m actually disappointed that you’re not entering the Celestial Battlefield this time. I would still like to learn from you if there’s a chance.”
The moment Pablo finished speaking, he turned and left. Dimas flashed a smirk at Dalton before going off with him.
“Who’s that, Dalton? He seems mysterious but powerful,” Jared asked.
“He’s a wandering cultivator from Demonia Mountain who’s not attached to any sects, and neither do the sects want to accept him,” Dalton replied.
“A wandering cultivator?” Jared was stunned, “I’m surprised a wandering cultivator can achieve such a cultivation level. Do both of you share some unpleasant history?”
The fury in Dalton’s eyes was obvious to Jared.
Dalton didn’t reply immediately. Instead, he gave Rosetta a look before saying, “That’s right. A long time ago, that b*stard bullied Rosetta and almost raped her. In my rage, I beat him up till he was grievously injured and threw him into Demon Devouring Cave. Little did I expect him to not only survive but also grow stronger. This is just ridiculous.”
“Demon Devouring Cave?” Jared was surprised, for he had no idea what it was.
“Mr. Chance, Demon Devouring Cave is just a cave on Demonia Mountain. It’s just that when the disciples of the six major demonic sects pass by, they mysteriously disappear. That’s how the cave earned its name. Because of that, the disciples of various demonic sects on the mountain would circle the cave instead of traveling past it,” Dalton explained.
Only then did Jared realize why everyone was astonished to see Pablo. To have survived and grown stronger after being thrown into Demon Devouring Cave with Injuries was indeed an incredulous development.
If not for the fact that the Celestial Battlefield was about to be opened, Jared would have wanted to check out Demon Devouring Cave to decipher its mysteries.
Meanwhile, everyone was waiting for the dimensional crack in the sky to open fully. Once the temporal turbulence around them completely disappeared, they would be able to go in.
Gradually, the turbulence surrounding the crack began to weaken until it eventually subsided completely. The clouds encircling the crack began to disperse, paving the way for a path to swiftly form around it.
When the crowd saw that a passage had opened up and were eager to go forward, a figure dashed toward the crack from nowhere.
Immediately after, a piercing shrill that sounded like an alarm rang out. The group of cultivators who were standing guard at the crack sprang into action.
With more than ten auras combined, it made for an overwhelmingly powerful sight. When the auras struck the figure, it burst into a mist of blood that was blown away by the wind.
“Everyone, no one is allowed to enter without the VIP token. What you saw just now is the consequences of ignoring the rule, so please be mindful of it,” Artan said loudly. No sooner had Artan spoken than another figure morphed into a breeze and flew toward the crack.
However, the jarring shrill wasn’t heard this time, and the cultivators guarding the crack didn’t move. Clearly, this figure possessed a VIP token.
