Chapter 3935 Sneaking Around
“Ah, I’ve slain ninety-nine! I’m just short of one more…” A cultivator roared in frustration, but a beam of light ultimately transported him out of the assessment field.
Upon seeing that Jared’s group had all passed, Adan scowled.
“We all may have passed this stage, but special attention must be paid to the next one, which is the ultimate test of your fire source,” Carla addressed the crowd.
She was also saying that for Jared because his fire source was too weak. Hence, the next stage was crucial to him.
Accompanied by a vast beam of light descending, Jared’s group slowly found themselves enveloped by the radiance. Then, everything before their eyes turned pitch black.
When Jared opened his eyes again, he found himself surrounded by a vast expanse of white, unable to see anything. Even his spiritual sense couldn’t penetrate through it.
At that moment, Jared felt as though he was in a confined space.
Jared tried to navigate through the vast expanse of white, but he found that he couldn’t escape.
Suddenly, Carla’s voice reached him. “Jared, don’t be afraid. You just need to harness the fire source within you and withstand the test for a moment. Rest assured, there’s no threat to your life. If you really can’t hold on any longer, you can call it quits.”
“Understood, Carla.” Jared nodded, then quietly took a seat, silently awaiting the arrival of the test.
Quickly, waves of heat rolled in, and Jared felt as if he was completely engulfed in flames.
Jared could sense the intense flames burning around him. Even though he couldn’t see them, he could definitely feel them.
Hence, everyone was using their inner fire source to resist that wave of heat.
The fire source raging within oneself made it impossible for the surrounding heat wave to penetrate one’s body.
Jared was sitting quietly, unaffected. The heat wave of such low power couldn’t possibly bother him, so he didn’t even need to use a fire source.
After sitting for a while, Jared began to feel a touch of boredom creeping in. Unexpectedly, he started to embrace the heat wave willingly, curious to discover what kind of flame that heat could produce.
As Jared absorbed the heat waves, he was astounded to discover that those surges of warmth were actually emanating from the fire source of the Violet Flame Sect.
Feeling that aura, a sudden joy surged within Jared’s heart.
That was the fire source of the Violet Flame Sect, something Jared had never seen before. If he could absorb and refine that fire source, making it his own, he could add another fire source to his arsenal. Upon having that thought, Jared began to absorb the heat waves, his spiritual sense
expanding outward in tandem with the
relentless surge of heat.
Jared had to locate the position of the fire source before he could attempt to refine and absorb it.
All around was a vast expanse of white, effectively obstructing his spiritual sense. However, Jared ingeniously utilized the heat wave to extend his spiritual sense outward.
As Jared’s spiritual sense expanded, he realized that, at that moment, everyone was situated within a vast space. The distance between each person was not far, but they were all enveloped by a formation.
Among them, a ball of fire source continually danced and leapt. It was clear the rolling heat wave was emanating from that ball of fire source.
Just as Jared was preparing to examine the fire source, suddenly, a figure was stealthily approaching it.
Jared saw that the figure was unexpectedly Adan.
Jared was taken aback. He couldn’t comprehend how during the assessment, someone could actually leave their designated spot.
After all, no matter where Jared went, he was never able to leave his own area.
Yet, Adan manage to leave his own area.
Jared used his spiritual sense to examine Adan. He wanted to see what exactly the latter was’up to.
Adan was seen holding an object wrapped in red cloth. Upon unveiling, it was a bronze mirror intricately etched with many array runes.
Adan was using that bronze mirror to traverse within that region effortlessly.
