Chapter 1222 Cymbal
Jared watched Skylar in silence as the latter turned and went to another mansion to grab the keys.
When he reached one of the rooms, he placed his palm on the wall and gently pressed down. A secret door opened.
After Skylar stepped into the room, the door closed behind him.
There were numerous magical items and treasures in the room. It was the place where Skylar’s father, David, hid his treasures.
Skylar had not gone there to retrieve the keys; he was there to get one of the items to defeat Jared.
His gaze landed on a cymbal hanging on the wall.
That cymbal was David’s most precious treasure. According to the legends, that cymbal was something used by a Top Level Martial Arts Marquis.
The Top Level Martial Arts Marquis had failed to get a breakthrough in his skills for a hundred years, and he had ended up dying a sad man.
Nevertheless, the Top Level Martial Arts Marquis had sealed his power within the cymbal.
That power would be more than enough to kill everyone in Jadeborough martial arts world.
However, that cymbal could only be used once.
Ever since David got his hands on the cymbal, he had treated it as the family treasure. With that, no one had dared to cross the Norton family without thinking twice.
“Jared, I’m going to make sure you die in pieces!”
A cold glint flickered in Skylar’s eyes as he reached out to grab the cymbal.
At that moment, Skylar no longer cared about the consequences.
Holding the cymbal close to his chest, he walked out of the secret room and toward Jared.
“Have you gotten the keys?” Jared asked him.
“I have. Look.”
Skylar pulled out the cymbal.
The moment the cymbal was exposed to the air, a powerful wave of ancient aura spread across the room.
Once that aura dissipated, Jared furrowed his brows.
The people were taken aback when they saw Skylar take out the cymbal.
“Is that… Is that the Norton family’s family treasure?”
“I think so. I’ve heard of it, but I’ve never seen it before. That aura’s too mighty.”
“What kind of item is that? I’ve never felt a wave of aura like this before.”
“This is fear-inducing! It’s so much more powerful than the aura of a Fifth Level Martial Arts Marquis!”
The crowd chattered away.
Jared’s expression darkened, and he activated his spiritual energy to its maximum.
The Power of Dragons kept getting released from the draconic essence, and it enveloped Jared’s body.
As he could not use Golem Body for the time being, he would have to take the hits with his own body.
The mysterious aura made alarm bells ring in Jared’s head, for he could sense how powerful it was.
When Skylar saw the way Jared reacted, he smugly grinned. “Jared, a Top Level Martial Arts Marquis’ power is within this cymbal. I’ll be able to kill you in a second, and there won’t be even a piece of you left!”
Jared grimaced even more at that.
Although he knew that the power within the cymbal was not the Top Level Martial Arts Marquis’ full power, the cymbal could still be used to end his life in the blink of an eye.
The Power of Dragons that wrapped around Jared began to glow.
“Jared, I might spare your life if you admit to your mistakes on your knees and hand over all the magical items you have,” Skylar said as he looked at Jared. “I’m someone who values gifted people, and you’re one. It’s a pity if you die like this.”
Truthfully, Skylar would feel no pity if Jared were to die. He was only afraid that the Top Level Martial Arts Marquis’ power would destroy the magical items that Jared had on him.
Pentacarna Tower, especially, was truly one of its kind.
With Pentacarna Tower, Skylar would have an easy time cultivating. Jared was a living example of its usefulness. Skylar was sure that Jared could not have improved so quickly without the help of Pentacarna Tower.
“Get on my knees and admit to my mistakes?” Jared sneered. “Do you think you’re worthy of me doing that?”
The bloodthirsty intent seeped out of Jared. He was not going to relent even if it meant going up against the power of a Top Level Martial Arts Marquis.
