The six purple-robed emissaries surrounded Jared. With a slight pucker between his brows, Jared questioned the six purple-robed emissaries, “You’re all cultivators of the Eight Major Secret Realms, but you’re willing to devalue yourselves to become a lapdog to a Demonic Cultivator. Don’t you find this humiliating?”
Quindon stepped forward and said to Jared, “Cut it out, Jared. Stay right here, and I’ll be able to keep you safe. All we want is to activate the Spiritual Energy Restoration Formation. We don’t wish to hurt anyone. Although the Eight Major Secret Realms are rich with spiritual energy, limitations still exist. Besides, the collapse of the Eight Major Secret Realms comes closer as time ticks away. Where will people like us go when that day comes?”
“None of you can stop me if I want to leave, not unless you kill me,” Jared hissed. “Don’t force us to attack you,” Quindon warned, his expression turning grim. “Then do it. I have to leave this place.”
As soon as those words fell from Jared’s lips, the aura within his body began pulsating. At that sight, Quindon gestured with his hand and declared, “Charge! Don’t let him leave!” Having witnessed Jared’s capabilities earlier, the six purple-robed emissaries decided to attack in unison.
Several rays of light shot out from the purple- robed emissaries’ hands. When the rays converged in the air, they formed a powerful. beam of light that charged toward Jared.
In the face of that massive beam of light, Jared did not panic in the slightest, for he knew that the purple-robed emissaries did not intend to kill him-they only wanted to trap him. When the beam of light shone on him, it instantly turned into a transparent barrier around Jared, encasing him within.
“Do you think an arcane array of this type will be able to trap me?” Jared scoffed in disdain, tightening his fists. “Sacred Light Fist!” he cried out..
The spiritual energy in his elixir field begant rumbling, and his right fist glimmered. However, just as Jared was about to punch the barrier in front of him, the light in his fist suddenly went out, and he could not channel. the spiritual energy in his elixir field either.
It felt as if something mighty had restrained the spiritual energy within him. Because of that, Jared could not use his power to escape from the ensnarement.
“How did this happen?” Jared muttered in disbelief. He tried to unleash the spiritual energy in him again, but it remained still. Not even the Power of Dragons within the draconic essence responded to his summoning.
Seeing the state that Jared was in, Quindon laughed. “Jared, stop wasting your energy. No one is capable of breaking free from the Immortal Ensnarement Formation we’ve created. Inside there, you won’t be able to use your spiritual energy. Behave and stay right here. Once the Spiritual Energy Restoration Formation has been activated and the mundane world’s spiritual energy has been restored, we can beg Tanner to spare your life. You’re a genius with a great talent for spiritual energy cultivation, so I hope you know when to stop.”
He was trying to persuade Jared to listen to them, but the latter remained quiet. At that moment, Jared was discreetly channeling the Ultimate Force within him. To his delight, he discovered that although the Immortal Ensnarement Formation suppressed his spiritual energy and the Power of Dragons, his Ultimate Force remained unaffected.
It seemed like the Immortal Ensnarement Formation targeted the spiritual energy that immortals used, as well as the Power of Dragons. However, Ultimate Force was not a power that spiritual energy cultivators utilized. It belonged to the demon spirits, so the formation could not suppress it.
Jared let out a sigh of relief under his breath when he realized he could still use his Ultimate Force. Nevertheless, he made a pretense of being furious. Glaring at Quindon, he snarled, “The lot of you are not worthy of the title of a cultivator. I’ll never join your ranks!”
“Do you really think that you still have a choice in that?” Quindon snorted contemptuously before leaving with the other purple-robed emissaries.
They were utterly confident that Jared could not escape the Immortal Ensnarement Formation.
