As Jared indulged in his delightful daydreams, a sudden dangerous aura swept over him.
Outside the palace, Pablo witnessed Jared enduring the Obsidian Lightning Tribulation and heard a fierce roar from a beast within. This filled him with suspicion, prompting him to use his spiritual sense to investigate the situation.
Immediately, Jared recognized Pablo’s aura and became completely tense. He was weak at that moment. Despite absorbing the lightning nascence from the Obsidian Lightning Tribulation, he was no match for Pablo.
Just when he was at a loss, he caught sight of the bronze cauldron, which had absorbed all the celestial water.
Initially, the cauldron contained celestial water, but it had been completely absorbed by the spirit beast egg. However, the bronze cauldron remained. A bronze cauldron capable of storing celestial water must be a magical item as well!
Jared devised a plan to conceal himself within the bronze cauldron, making it impossible for Pablo’s spiritual sense to detect him.
Upon further thought, Pablo probably didn’t charge in right away because he was intimidated by the lightning tribulation and the unicorn’s roar. Unaware of the situation inside the palace, he dared not recklessly rush in.
Jared’s only task was to keep himself hidden. If Pablo couldn’t detect him, then he wouldn’t know the true situation in the palace and wouldn’t dare to enter.
First, he needed to deceive Pablo before figuring out an escape plan. Jared leaped up and threw himself into the bronze cauldron. The residual celestial energy wrapped around him, and a beam of white light appeared.
He looked towards the white light and discovered words carved around the bronze cauldron.
He reached out and gently caressed the four walls of the cauldron. In an instant, sacred and divine rays of light burst forth, radiating in all directions. The entire palace was enveloped in celestial light.
Combined with the celestial mist surrounding the palace, it resembled the Skyward Palace in the Immortal Realm.
This left Pablo and Magnus completely stunned.
The celestial light emanated from the bronze cauldron, engulfing Jared entirely. His surroundings transformed into a vast expanse of white, and the cauldron disappeared.
Confused and unsure of his location, a wave of heat swept towards Jared.
Following the heat, an elderly man slowly appeared, his body engulfed in flames.
Beneath the flames, he wore a vibrant red robe, a shade so intense that it was almost blinding.
“Who are you?” Jared instantly became guarded.
The elderly man remained silent and scrutinized Jared from head to toe.
After a long while, he finally smiled slightly and said, “I never expected that the one to inherit my legacy would be a Draconian, let alone the noblest Golden Dragon. Well, since I left my legacy here, whoever discovers it first should rightfully claim it.”
Having said that, the elderly man waved his hand lightly. Instantly, the flames surrounding his body transformed into various beasts, continuously changing.
Jared watched as he seemingly performed and asked impatiently, “Who exactly are you? Is playing with fire your legacy? If so, I also possess the same skills.”
After speaking, his fire nascence spark flickered, and a ball of demonic fire pulsated in his palm.
“Huh?” The elderly man appeared somewhat surprised upon seeing the flame in Jared’s palm. “Demon’s demonic fire? You actually possess this within you. It seems I need to conduct a thorough examination.”
He waved his hand at Jared, and a ball of flames surrounded him.
Like a mouse in the presence of a cat, the ball of fire in Jared’s palm steadily weakened and ultimately extinguished in the center of his hand.
“What are you doing?” Jared paled in shock. He realized that no matter what he did, he couldn’t escape the flames surrounding his body.
The elderly man said nothing. After a brief moment, the flames gradually extinguished.
