“Rest assured, even though I’ve lost my memory, my strength is not something a minor Tribulator cultivator like you can compare to. As long as I regain my memory, helping you advance to Ultimate Realm will not be a problem!” The elder spoke with great confidence!
“Upon ascending to Ultimate Realm, what need would I have for you? What I require is your assistance in the celestial realm. Once we reach there, you can serve as my advisor.” If Jared was only focused on advancing to Ultimate Realm, he didn’t need to pay any attention to the old man!
As long as there were sufficient resources, Jared could definitely ascend to Ultimate Realm!
Upon hearing Jared’s somewhat exaggerated claims, the elder scoffed, “What’s this? You’ve just achieved Tribulator cultivation level, and you’re already thinking about the celestial realm? Do you really believe you can ascend to immortality? Even though I have lost my memory, I know that among the mortal cultivators, even if they practiced for thousands of years, only a handful could ascend to the celestial realm. Even though you, young man, indeed possess an extraordinary and incredibly robust physique, are you so certain that you can ascend to the celestial realm?”
Jared threatened the old man, saying, “Whether I can ascend or not, it’s no longer your concern. Don’t forget, you are now my captive. If you displease me, I can scatter your soul to the winds, making you disappear forever…”
“You…” Although the old man was dissatisfied, he dared not say anything more. After all, what Jared said was true!
At that moment, he was merely a soul remnant. Jared could obliterate him at any moment, causing him to vanish forever!
Seeing that Jared was about to start arguing with the old man, Trystan quickly intervened, “Perhaps I should first remove the shackles from this elder!”
Observing the faintly discernible soul remnant, Trystan dared not to be the slightest bit careless. Subsequently, with a wave of his hand, a large amount of green smoke swirled around the old man’s soul remnant!
The figure of the elder gradually became clear, and on his withered face, two large eyes shone with exceptional brightness!
As the green smoke grew thicker, the old man’s soul remnant began to struggle fiercely. His once distinct form gradually became more and more blurred!
Upon seeing the situation, Jared hurriedly asked, “Mr. Pruitt, what’s going on? Please, don’t let him die.”
“Mr. Chance, the shackles on this soul remnant are not tangible, but rather, they are illusory. They confine the soul remnant, preventing it from breaking free. Therefore, if you wish to remove these shackles, you must strike directly at the heart of the soul remnant!” Trystan explained to Jared.
“Are you suggesting that this shackle never existed, but was merely a figment of imagination?” Jared exclaimed with a face full of shock!
“Yes, it should be like this, just as if someone was suffering from delusions, imagining that they were being pursued. As a result, they were caught in an endless flight, even though in reality, no one was after them. However, in their world, the pursuit was a genuine existence. It’s only through my careful observation just now that I made the discovery!” Trystan was meticulously explaining things to Jared!
In an instant, Jared had a moment of realization. After all, a soul remnant was a spiritual entity, and to think of binding it with physical shackles was clearly somewhat impossible!
During the time Jared was conversing with Trystan, a sudden flash of green light sparkled amidst the dense green smoke!
Accompanied by streaks of green light piercing through the old man’s soul remnant, the elder let out a series of low growls!
Quickly, the shackles on the old man’s soul remnant began to fade away. Along with the disappearance of those shackles, an aura began to emanate and rise from the old man’s body!
Even if it was just a wisp of a soul remnant, the aura emanating from the old man left Jared and Trystan in utter shock!
“Which grand demon lord from the celestial realm is this?” Trystan exclaimed with a face full of shock.
After all, a soul remnant that emanated such an aura could not possibly be a fallen cultivator from the celestial realm!
Just as Jared and Trystan were astounded by the aura of the old man’s soul remnant, a sudden beastly roar echoed out!
Trystan was taken aback. “Where did that sound come from?”
Jared was taken aback. He hadn’t even reacted when, astonishingly, the Celestial Devourer had escaped from his storage ring on its own!
Only the Celestial Devourer could freely enter and exit the storage ring without Jared’s mental summoning!
