As soon as Jared did that, a muffled grunt rang out. A deep pit appeared in the ground, and a Demonic Cultivator jumped up from the ground with the mystical herb in his arms.
Obviously, the mystical herb didn’t just burrow underground on its own. Instead, that Demonic Cultivator had tried to snatch it away.
Jared narrowed his eyes and glared at that Demonic Cultivator. “Give the mystical herb back to me!”
Not taking Jared seriously, the Demonic Cultivator scoffed, “You’ve just become a Tribulator cultivator. You’re not worthy of this mystical herb! I’ll be merciful and allow you to leave. Otherwise, I’ll make you suffer!”
Jared frowned in response. Without another word, he swung the Demon Flogger at the Demonic Cultivator.
The moment he did that, the Demonic Cultivator turned into a cloud of white smoke. Indeed, that was the Demonic Cultivator’s shadow clone.
Jared had known from the beginning that the Demonic Cultivator was using his shadow clone to buy time. The Demonic Cultivator’s true form had long since disappeared and fled.
Jared’s Demon Flogger started to burn with flames as he swung it around. The flames shot straight into the ground, and bursts of thick smoke came out from the ground.
“Flaming Cage!” Jared shouted. Endless flames emerged from underground and quickly connected to form a large net, covering miles.
A muffled grunt rang out from a distance, and Jared leaped into the air and swung the Demon Flogger in the direction of the sound. “How dare a puny Demonic Cultivator try to snatch my stuff?”
Jared whipped his flogger, and accompanied by endless flames, a figure suddenly rushed out from underground. It was the Demonic Cultivator who had tried to flee. The Demonic Cultivator took out a sharp magic sword to block Jared’s Demon Flogger.
“Ugh!”
Although the Demonic Cultivator managed to block the Demon Flogger, he was hit by the demonic fire on it. The Demonic Cultivator spewed out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying away.
Needless to say, the Demonic Cultivator was flabbergasted. I’m a Fourth Level Tribulator cultivator! How is a rookie Tribulator cultivator defeating me? In fact, I couldn’t even block his attack!
Jared’s Flaming Cage had formed a cage underground, rendering the Demonic Cultivator’s Earth Escape Technique useless. The flames forced the Demonic Cultivator out of the ground.
That Earth Escape Technique was the Demonic Cultivator’s ultimate skill, but it was useless against Jared.
“I’ll give you the mystical herb. Please let me go…” The Demonic Cultivator knew he had underestimated Jared, so he decided to give the mystical herb up, hoping that Jared would spare his life.
Jared nodded at the injured Demonic Cultivator. “All right. If you give me the mystical herb, I’ll spare your life.”
The Demonic Cultivator unhesitatingly tossed the human-sized mystical herb at Jared, and the latter kept the mystical herb in his Storage Ring. After that, he waved his arm and Flaming Cage disappeared.
However, right when the Demonic Cultivator was about to leave, he saw four figures appearing from not far away. One of the figures was Dimas from Bloodroot Peak. Those four were all Demonic Cultivators, and they were approaching quickly.
Jared furrowed his brows when he saw Dimas and the others, and he quickly turned around to leave. He was on his own, and he wasn’t sure if he could defeat Dimas and the other three Demonic Cultivators.
Moreover, he didn’t want to waste his time. He entered the Celestial Battlefield to find magical items instead of fighting others.
However, he couldn’t leave because Dimas and the others had surrounded him.
Dimas looked at the injured Demonic Cultivator and smiled faintly.
