“I’ll venture into the Ten Thousand Spirits Array in search of Ms. Sutton’s soul. If I can find it, that would be ideal. If not, I intend to break the array. If I allow this massive arcane array to continue operating, I fear that within a few years, your family will all be reduced to a state of idiocy!” Jared said.
Moses, watching the continuously shimmering arcane array, quickly nodded in response.
Jared’s move was far superior to anyone else’s.
Jared slowly moved toward the heart of the arcane array. Accompanied by a ripple in the void, Jared’s figure vanished.
Upon seeing the situation, Trystan was filled with anxiety for Jared.
At that moment, Jared found himself in the midst of nothingness, surrounded by an endless expanse of white as far as the eye could see.
Only the faintly shimmering array runes revealed to Jared that he was indeed within the Ten Thousand Spirits Array.
Curious, Vermilion Demon Lord asked, “Kid, you’ve got quite the nerve. You have no understanding of the Ten Thousand Spirits Array, yet you dared to rush in. Aren’t you afraid you won’t be able to get out?”
Jared gave a subtle smile and said, “Of course, I’m not scared. I understand it. After all, I have you here with me. If I can’t get out, you’ll be stuck here with me. I figured you wouldn’t want that, would you?”
Vermilion Demon Lord was momentarily taken aback, then let out a bitter chuckle. “Clever boy, you’ve tricked me, haven’t you? But even though this Ten Thousand Spirits Array is malicious, to me, it’s child’s play! Now, I grant you the power of the Nethersky Eye. Under its gaze, all falsehoods have nowhere to hide, and all illusion spells will vanish into thin air!”
Jared was taken aback, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Jared was well aware of the formidable power of the Nethersky Eye. He recalled the time on the battlefield of Celestial Battle when he was relentlessly pursued by Pablo and left with no escape. It was all because of that Nethersky Eye.
After Pablo activated his Nethersky Eye, there was simply nowhere for Jared to hide.
Unexpectedly, Vermilion Demon Lord had awakened Jared’s Nethersky Eye.
Just as Jared was about to express his gratitude, he heard Vermilion Demon Lord continue, “Don’t celebrate too soon. Just because I’ve activated the Nethersky Eye for you, that doesn’t mean you now possess it. The moment I leave your consciousness field, you will no longer be able to activate it. If you’re truly determined to master the Nethersky Eye, I’ll guide you through the technique. But remember, you’ll have to train relentlessly on your own. If I were not a soul remnant right now, teaching you the Nethersky Eye wouldn’t be much of a challenge! Unfortunately, I’m now merely a soul remnant. It was quite a feat to have helped you unlock the Nethersky Eye. There’s absolutely no way I could transmit anything more to you.”
The words of Vermilion Demon Lord caused Jared’s previously elated mood to plummet instantly. It turns out that the Nethersky Eye requires the presence of Vermilion Demon Lord in my consciousness field for it to function!
The likelihood of Vermilion Demon Lord spending his entire life in Jared’s consciousness field was practically non- existent. In other words, Jared’s Nethersky Eye was merely a temporary condition.
After sorting out his thoughts, Jared said, “Even a temporary one won’t be so bad. Would you do the honors of activating it for me?”
Vermilion Demon Lord nodded in agreement. Following this, a burst of red light shot out from Jared’s consciousness field, illuminating the surroundings as it radiated from the center of his forehead.
A scar, strikingly similar to an eye, had appeared on Jared’s forehead.
At that moment, as Jared looked around, his surroundings were no longer a vast expanse of white, but rather a hazy shade of gray, making the atmosphere significantly more oppressive.
However, beneath the hazy gloom, there were several dark figures. Upon a glance, Jared realized that these shadowy figures were human souls.
Apart from the soul of Moses’ daughter, there were others as well. Those souls trapped there were aimlessly wandering about.
Upon seeing this, Jared let out a long sigh of relief.
If those souls had been refined, it would have been the end. However, they hadn’t been refined yet. This meant that Jared could take Moses’ daughter’s soul with him.
As Jared was heading toward the soul of Moses’ daughter, he was suddenly ensnared by a forceful pull.
Shortly after, a beam of light was seen shining upon those souls, causing them to display expressions of agony.
