Looking at the Golden Tome and Vermilion Demon Lord before him, Drei was dumbfounded.
He had never imagined that a Fourth Level Tribulator would possess such a vast consciousness field and even a miraculous tome.
Most importantly, as Drei felt Vermilion Demon Lord’s aura, his legs trembled with fear.
As the creator of Violet Flame Sect, Drei was a powerful cultivator close to attaining Immortal Realm.
Even though he was a mere soul remnant now, he had met his fair share of people and gained broad experience.
Yet, when faced with Vermilion Demon Lord, Drei felt a deep-seated fear surge within him. The fear was so intense that it was impossible to conceal.
“Brat, this geezer is about to wet his pants in fear. If you have anything to say to him, go ahead. I’ll step away for a bit. I wouldn’t want to scare him to death,” Vermilion Demon Lord said to Jared after noticing Drei’s shaking legs.
Jared could sense the fear radiating from Drei. After all, anyone would be terrified at the sight of a celestial realm great demon lord like Vermilion Demon Lord.
“Mr. Haddon, don’t be scared. I won’t harm you. I did deceive you. However, even though I’m not a disciple of Violet Flame Sect, I’m genuinely helping them. I was helping Violet Flame Sect’s Mr. Barclay and the others to stop Harlan from acquiring Divine Flame Seal, so I was pursued by people from Ghost Mask Sect. As a result, I entered the lava river, fell into a void fracture, and ended up here,” Jared explained to Drei with utmost sincerity.
“How come there’s a hint of demonic aura about you, then?” asked Drei.
Drei hated the demons to his guts, which was why Violet Flame Sect had been at daggers drawn with the demons for so many years.
“Not only do I possess the demonic aura, but I also have the aura of the beast race on me.” After speaking, Jared slowly unleashed the Power of Three within him, allowing Drei to sense it.
When Drei sensed that Jared surprisingly embodied the auras of three races, his eyes widened in astonishment. An expression of utter shock spread across his face. One person with the auras of three races on him. This is something I’ve never heard of or seen.
“How peculiar. You’re such a peculiar person,” Drei exclaimed in surprise.
“Mr. Haddon, since you’re reduced to only a soul remnant now, why not stay within my consciousness field? I can take you with me. Perhaps we can find a chance to revive you,” Jared said to Drei.
With a bitter smile, Drei said, “I’m beyond resurrection. Even my soul remnant is sustained by the flame aura of the magical items around me. I know I’m on the brink of fading away, so I’ll impart all my knowledge to you before I do. I hope you will carry on and magnify the legacy of Violet Flame Sect.”
“Mr. Haddon, what are you…” Jared was taken aback. How am I supposed to do that? I’m not even a disciple of Violet Flame Sect.
Before Jared could even speak, Drei had already formed a spiritual soul in the palm of his hand. In an instant, it merged into Jared’s consciousness field.
Subsequently, a flurry of complex and detailed information began to sweep across Jared’s consciousness field.
Before Jared could react, Drei had turned deathly pale, trembling violently. Yet, a faint smile graced his face as if he had just resolved a significant matter.
Jared didn’t have time to process the information fully. Instead, he quickly turned to Drei and asked, “Mr. Haddon, are you all right?”
“I’m fine. Even if I were to die now, I could do so in peace. Because of the sudden mishap that befell me, I didn’t leave much of my true teachings at Violet Flame Sect, so it has been growing weaker. Also, I didn’t even have the chance to tell my disciples about the secrets of the Divine Flame Seal. I presume over the years, they only allowed the Divine Flame Seal to recognize a master and used it for cultivation,” Drei uttered with a look of helplessness and guilt.
“Mr. Haddon, isn’t the Divine Flame Seal meant for cultivation? I heard that once the Divine Flame Seal recognizes its master, it can enable the fire fusion technique,” Jared asked Drei in surprise.
Drei, however, shook his head and said, “The Divine Flame Seal can indeed aid in cultivation, but right now, it is nothing more than an empty shell.”
