Upon hearing Jared proclaim himself as the eldest disciple of the Inferno Devil, Faiyar couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
However, Jared’s reaction speed was indeed impressive.
Just as Jared approached Rueben and Rueben was about to hand over the fire sacred bead he held to Jared, a sudden shout erupted.
“Rueben, don’t be fooled. This guy isn’t the eldest disciple of the Inferno Devil. He’s deceiving you.”
Suddenly, Ilias appeared, swiftly heading towards Jared. Upon hearing this, Rueben quickly withdrew his outstretched hand.
Upon seeing Ilias’ arrival, Jared stepped forward, intending to snatch the fire sacred bead from Rueben’s hands.
Without the fire sacred bead, Rueben would surely freeze to death from the frost energy within the Holy Pond.
Upon seeing Jared approaching to snatch it away, Rueben quickly shouted, “Dad, save mel Hurry and save me!”
Rueben tightly clutched the fire sacred bead, desperately diving down.
Upon seeing his son being pursued by Jared, Ilias was filled with fury, on the verge of losing his mind.
He desperately chased after Jared.
“Dare to lay a hand on my son? You’re courting death!”
With a loud shout, Ilias’ spiritual energy surged instantly.
Immediately after, he directed a palm strike towards Jared. However, Ilias used a large amount of spiritual energy to protect his body, preventing the frost energy from invading him. The water in the Holy Pond also provided a barrier.
Therefore, Ilias didn’t even exert half of his usual strength in this palm strike. Upon seeing the situation, Jared kicked Rueben, sending him hurtling towards the depths at a rapid speed.
Then, Jared swiftly retaliated, forming a protective shield in front of himself with a single palm strike.
Jared dared not underestimate the strike of a Ninth Level Tribulator.
Even though Jared’s physical body was strong and he was further protected by his Golem Body, it was impossible for him to withstand a single blow from a Ninth Level Tribulator.
Boom!
Ilias’ palm forcefully struck against the protective shield in front of Jared.
Jared’s figure swayed twice, but he didn’t rapidly retreat as expected.
This left Jared slightly taken aback, but he quickly recovered. Ilias had neither demonic fire nor the fire sacred bead, so he used most of his spiritual energy to protect himself.
Within Jared, there existed a demonic fire that allowed him to resist the frost energy. Hence, Jared was not greatly affected.
Upon understanding these facts, Jared instantly gained confidence. Within this Holy Pond, what could Ilias, a Ninth Level Tribulator, possibly achieve?
“Old brat, your strength is nothing more than this. Watch how I deal with you.” Jared actually took the initiative to strike first.
Ilias gritted his teeth, his face turning an angry shade of pale green.
A dignified Ninth Level Tribulator was being challenged by a mere First Level Tribulator. If word of this were to spread, Ilias would be humiliated.
Jared quickly found himself embroiled in a fierce battle with Ilias.
For a moment, the two were evenly matched, with Ilias surprisingly unable to gain the upper hand over Jared.
At that moment, due to the fierce battle between the two individuals, the Holy Pond was in turmoil, its waters churning like monstrous waves. The chaotic spiritual energy constantly surged.
Rueben, holding the fire sacred bead, desperately swam upward after being kicked down by Jared.
Rueben grew anxious, fearing that the fire sacred bead could no longer protect him, so he desperately swam upward.
However, right above his head was the area where Jared was engaged in a battle with Ilias. Rueben had just swum up a bit when he was sent flying by the chaotic aura.
Upon seeing his son in that state, Ilias was filled with extreme anger. “Rueben!”
However, the angrier Ilias became, the more impossible it seemed to swiftly defeat Jared.
Jared was observed wielding the Dragonslayer Sword, with each swing of the sword stirring up a tempest within the Holy Pond. Meanwhile, Ilias was desperately defending against the onslaught.
The situation was enough to enrage Ilias to no end. What is happening? Why am I struggling to defeat a First Level Tribulator?
If it weren’t for the Holy Pond holding Ilias back, he would have dispatched Jared long ago.
However, all he could do was watch helplessly as Jared gracefully moved around him. Ilias still couldn’t overcome him.
