Chapter 385 Run
With his trembling voice, Venicus asked, “Y-You destroyed my Soultrapper Formation?”
“You call that a formation? Honestly, if this is all you’ve got, then you can forget about taking me in as your disciple!” Jared snapped back at him disdainfully.
“Don’t get so full of yourself, kid!”
Venicus was livid with rage.
He then retrieved a few black-colored bottles from his pockets and placed them down in front of him. There were five of them in total, and each one had a yellow seal on it.
Jared’s eyes lit up with excitement when he saw those bottles and figured out what they contained.
Oh? Master Venicus sure has a lot of interesting stuff on him! These are all going to contribute greatly to my cultivation!
After that, Venicus pulled out a piece of paper with a spell written on it.
“Come forth, all of ye damned souls!” he chanted while burning the paper in his hand.
When he tossed it aside, the five bottles began burning as well. Moments later, the entire arena was filled with the deafening cries and howls of ghosts.
Most of the people in the crowd were shivering in fear. Phoenix pulled Josephine into her embrace when she saw her face go pale.
The entire place gradually darkened as countless terrifying ghosts came flying out of the five bottles.
Those who had never seen such a thing before were utterly scared out of their wits, and some of them even fainted on the spot.
Having witnessed this sort of thing in the past, Tommy felt no fear as he stared at the ghosts in front of them.
As the souls continued to fly around Venicus’ body, he turned to look at Jared, only to frown in confusion when he saw how calm Jared was. “Are you not afraid at all?”
“These are but mere ghosts! What’s there to be afraid of? Come on, hit me with your best shot!” Jared replied with a cold chuckle.
Those ghosts would become a valuable resource for his cultivation, so he was actually hoping that Venicus would strike sooner.
With the way things were, Venicus had no choice but to clench his teeth and go all out.
“Attack!”
On his command, the ghosts charged toward Jared with their claws out, ready to tear him apart.
With a faint smile on his face, Jared waited until the ghosts got close to him before opening his mouth to suck them in.
Caught completely off guard, most of the ghosts were sucked into his stomach. The remaining ones made a desperate attempt to flee, but Jared wasn’t about to let such valuable resources get away.
With a swift motion, he caught up to the fleeing ghosts and consumed them all.
Venicus’ expression was twisted with shock and disbelief as he watched his trump card get nullified. In Crescent Sect, mages were only allowed to keep spirits as pets. As such, Venicus had went through great pains just to secretly keep those ghosts as pets.
Some of the people in the crowd got so disgusted by the sight of Jared eating the souls that they threw up on the spot.
Josephine felt a sickening sensation surge through her and ended up puking as well. She would probably find it hard to kiss Jared after watching him consume all those ghosts like that.
“Run!” Venicus shouted as he leaped backward and began running for the door.
Of course, he wasn’t reminding the Jantz family members to run out of kindness. Instead, Venicus was hoping that Jared would go after them so that he could make his escape.
To his surprise, Jared ignored the Jantz family members and ran after him instead.
Seeing as Venicus was forced into retreating, Zachariah immediately tried to escape with his family members. They were so terrified that they didn’t even bother bringing Wilbur’s body with them.
