“Have you gone mad, kid? We don’t have much time left, yet you want to let the seal Demonic Cultivator spirits out? Are you trying to get us all killed?”
“That’s right. There’s no place to hide in this small place. The Demonic Cultivator spirits have already died once and have nothing to fear!”
“I don’t agree with it. You’re just toying with our lives by doing so. Besides, what makes you so sure that they’ll obey you?”
The crowd began to criticize Jared. Nonetheless, Vasily and Viola maintained their support for him, while Cloud was ambivalent about it, as freeing the Demonic Cultivator spirits would be dangerous after all.
“This is the only plan we can try now. If we don’t do anything, we’ll be as good as dead,” Jared said coldly.
“I agree. I have faith in you.”
Sunny stood by Jared’s side..
“I agree too. This is certainly better than dying without doing a thing.” Jerison, leading the Tall family’s subordinates, walked to Jared’s side too.
And with Cloud siding with them, Jared had gained the support of the majority. Faced with the turn of events, Konce and Lofton had no further objections.
“According to what you said, we need to allow our spiritual sense to be absorbed so that blood essence can be produced from the ice soul beasts in the coffins, right? In that case, who is going to volunteer to do it?” Konce asked.
As injuries to the spiritual sense were difficult to recover from, no one was willing to contribute their own spiritual sense energy.
“No one. The seal is about to break anytime. I can deal with this myself. All of you should hide outside the palace!” Jared instructed. Hearing Jared volunteer to do it alone, no one had any objections. As they walked out of the ice palace, Viola began to worry about Jared.
“Stay safe and be careful. Otherwise, I don’t know how I’m going to live,” Viola said as she held Jared’s hands tightly.
“Don’t worry. I have Demon Flogger with me. The Demonic Cultivator spirits won’t dare to harm me,” Jared replied with a grin. Once Viola left, Jared leaped into the air and pressed his hand tightly against an ice crystal.
Before it could absorb his spiritual sense, Jared channeled all its energy into it. Due to Jared’s boundless consciousness field, he had a huge reservoir of spiritual sense energy.
As he allowed it to be drained from him, the blood strands inside the ice coffins began to increase. Blood essence began to flow out of the coffins and drip onto the patterns.
It wasn’t until two hours later that some movement could be seen from the patterns. It emitted light rays and made a thumping sound.
When everyone outside heard the commotion from within, they began to ready themselves. If Jared failed to control the Demonic Cultivator spirits, they would be in for the battle of their lives. With their survival hanging in the balance, many of them sweated bullets from the unbearable suspense.
Boom… Boom…
With a deafening sound, the entire cave began to tremble. All of them then saw the palace emitting a black mist that filled the air.
Countless Demonic Cultivator spirits were swarming out of the seal. Like wild horses breaking free of their reins, the spirits let out a menacing roar after being sealed away for a long time. Their harrowing cries caused everyone’s hair to stand on end.
The spirits inside the palace charged at Jared. In order to survive, all of them needed to find a host or pills and herbs that were capable of restoring their physical body. Otherwise, they would continue to exist in spirit form.
Seeing that, Jared retrieved Demon Flogger from his Storage Ring and lashed the attacking spirits.
