“W-Why are you looking at me? I told you that this guy isn’t simple. Otherwise, the Demon Seal Alliance wouldn’t have offered a hundred years of worship!” Marco exclaimed hastily.
Stephen was momentarily speechless. He hadn’t expected Jared to be so formidable. With just one move, he had slain a Sixth Level Tribulator despite being only a Second Level Tribulator.
Isn’t this a bit outrageous?
“We’ve been fooled! We’ve definitely been duped! This guy is not Jared at all. It must be the Soul Demon Sect. They must have found out that I tricked them out of their Demonia Dragon Ginseng, so they deliberately staged this act. He must be a master brought in by the Soul Demon Sect, luring us into making a move!” Stephen roared loudly.
He couldn’t believe that Jared, a Second Level Tribulator, truly had such capabilities. It was highly likely that it was a trap from the very beginning.
Clifford had deliberately informed them, his sole intention being to provoke them into action.
With that being the case, even if they were all killed, they could only blame themselves for striking first.
“Could this be a trap?”
Upon hearing Stephen say that, Marco also looked at Jared in disbelief.
Although Jared didn’t understand what Stephen meant by a trap, he simply smiled and said, “I am the Jared you’re looking for. Why are you denying it now?”
After Jared finished speaking, his appearance began to gradually change, and soon he reverted back to his original look.
Upon witnessing this scene, the corners of Stephen’s mouth twitched, his complexion turning even more unsightly.
Marco gritted his teeth, saying, “Dr. Livingstone, let’s not deceive ourselves at this point. This man is indeed Jared. We have no choice but to fight with all we’ve got. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. If we can kill Jared, then the century-long offerings of Demon Seal Alliance could enable us to dominate the entire Demonia Mountain.”
Upon hearing the mention of Demonia Mountain, Stephen was visibly shaken, but the quickly nodded and said, “All right, we must join forces and kill him. Today, it’s either him or us who will perish. I refuse to believe that the three of you Sixth Level Tribulators, along with a Fifth Level Tribulator like me, cannot kill a mere Second Level Tribulator!”
Stephen regained his confidence, his aura constantly soaring.
“Guys, let’s all pitch in, and don’t hold back!” Marco told the other two.
“All right!”
The other two cultivators nodded in agreement, unleashing their most formidable aura.
Jared showed no signs of panic as he looked at the four people in front of him, all fully prepared. Instead, there was a hint of disdain in his eyes as he said, “Since you’re all eager to die, then don’t blame me for what I’m about to do…”
At that moment, the soul remnant of Vermilion Demon Lord said, “Young man, kill them and absorb their death energy immediately. I’m residing in your consciousness field with no resources at all. At this rate, I reckon that this remnant of my soul will have vanished before I can recover my memory and reconstruct my physical body.”
The soul remnant of Vermilion Demon Lord could gain nothing within Jared’s consciousness field. On top of that, it also had to live in constant fear of the Golden Tome within Jared’s consciousness field. If things went awry, and the Golden Tome was activated, his soul remnant would be reduced to ashes.
Upon hearing the words of Vermilion Demon Lord, Jared nodded and said, “All right, I’ll absorb more death energy in the future. Perhaps, you might gradually regain your memory.”
No sooner had Jared finished speaking with Vermilion Demon Lord, than he noticed that Marco had already made his move with his men.
Suddenly, Marco let out a loud shout. His palms instantly filled with endless flames. Then, he soared into the sky, the flames instantly transforming into three ferocious beasts charging toward Jared.
The other two cultivators also took action simultaneously. A sea of intense flames surged toward Jared from all directions, transforming into fierce beasts.
It was clear that these three Demonic Cultivators were from the Inferno Devil clan, utilizing the clan’s demonic fire. However, in Jared’s view, this fire was far from pure.
It was quite possible that these Demonic Cultivators were all branches of the Infernd Devil lineage. Therefore, it was perfectly normal for their cultivation methods to be impure, and for their fire to be impure as well.
