Upon hearing that, Dario and the others hurriedly started to fly over the magma river. Since Jared controlled the magma river, it wasn’t subjected to any flame attacks.
Only after everyone had crossed the magma river did Jared finally start panting heavily and retract his extremus frost flame.
Jared’s forehead was drenched in cold sweat. At that moment, Maurice from the Ghost Mask Sect was not far off, leading his people in hot pursuit!
“Axel, hurry over here, come quickly…”
Upon seeing the members of the Ghost Mask Sect in pursuit, Juliet urgently yelled out to Jared.
Jared glanced at the members of the Ghost Mask Sect. He knew that if he left at this moment, they would surely catch up with him quickly.
“Juliet, you guys go ahead first. I’ll stop Harlan right away and catch up with you shortly!” Jared called out to Juliet.
“Ms. Ortiz, let’s leave now. It’s too risky for him to cross the magma river at this time. The people from Ghost Mask Sect will be here any moment. Our top priority is to prevent Harlan from obtaining the Divine Flame Seal. We have to stop him!” Dario pulled Juliet aside and said.
Juliet knew what they needed to do right now was to prevent Harlan from obtaining the Divine Flame Seal.
Helpless, Juliet gave Jared a look. With tears streaming down her face, she turned and headed toward the Divine Flame Mountain.
This time, she wasn’t sure if Jared could manage to escape again.
After all, Jared was trapped between the magma river and the relentless pursuit of the Ghost Mask Sect behind him. Where could he possibly escape to?
Jared watched as the fuming Maurice approached, realizing that escaping this time wouldn’t be so easy.
“I wonder if, with this puppet, I now have the strength to fight!”
Jared slightly frowned.
Just a moment ago, Jared utilized the extremus frost flame to freeze the magma river, allowing Dario and the others to pass. It had already drained a significant amount of his energy.
There wasn’t even time to catch a breath before Maurice and his crew were hot on his heels!
“With the state you’re in now, you don’t have a chance in hell of winning a fight,” Vermilion Demon Lord said.
“If I die, you won’t survive either. So, stop with your sarcastic remarks already… Think of something quick, you’re a Demon Lord of the celestial realm, but you’re about as useful as a fart,” Jared said in annoyance.
“There is a solution. I’m just afraid you might not agree to it,” Vermilion Demon Lord said.
“Spit it out, what’s the plan?” Jared demanded.
“Then let me possess you and take control of your body. But don’t worry, I’ll definitely control my aura and ensure not to harm your physical body. And after possessing it, I promise to return it to you. We’ve been together for such a long time, don’t you trust me?” Vermilion Demon Lord said.
“No problem, I can let you control my physical body,” Jared agreed without any hesitation.
Upon hearing Jared’s prompt agreement, Vermilion Demon Lord was somewhat taken aback. “What, you’re actually agreeing? Aren’t you afraid that I won’t return your body? Or that I might take over your body and have my way with your woman? You should know, all the ladies you’ve been with are extraordinary beauties, I’ve never seen such stunning women, even in the celestial realm!”
“Enough with the nonsense. If you dare harbor such thoughts, I have my ways of dealing with you. However, I trust in your character as my senior. I believe you wouldn’t act this way,” Jared said.
“All right, but when you leave your body, you need to figure out how to suppress this heavenly tome. This thing is constantly hanging over my head, I fear that any unusual movement within your body will directly result in me being obliterated,” Vermilion Demon Lord reminded.
Jared knew that the Golden Tome had always been protecting himself. Any soul that dared to venture into Jared’s consciousness field and control his body would be thwarted.
“Don’t worry, you better hurry…” Jared urged.
Subsequently, Jared expanded his spiritual sense and a figure appeared in the consciousness field. Jared willingly surrendered his physical body, allowing the spirit to enter his consciousness field!
