The Man’s Decree

With a cold chuckle, Berthold activated the Divine Flame Seal, which instantly generated an immense force of attraction. All the internal flames surrounding Jared was absorbed by the Divine Flame Seal in the blink of an eye.

However, Jared wasn’t alarmed at all. He believed that the Divine Flame Seal was destined to be his, sooner or later. Even if he was absorbed by the Divine Flame Seal, Jared didn’t see it as a loss.

As the intense heat dissipated from Jared’s body, two more lethal claws lunged at him. Thankfully, Jared’s quick reflexes saved him. In an instant, he used his Dragonslayer Sword to sever the incoming claws!Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Hahaha, let me tell you, my technique can exhaust you to death. I’m curious to see how long you can hold up,” he said.

Holding the Divine Flame Seal, Berthold spoke with an unmistakable look of satisfaction on his face.

Upon seeing the situation, Harlan breathed a deep sigh of relief. Even if Jared wasn’t beaten to death, he would surely be worn out to the point of death.

Jared looked at Berthold, who was full of smugness and gave a cold chuckle. “You really think I can’t handle your lousy technique?” he said. “I’ve just been humoring you all this time.”

“Within this black mist, a multi-legged monster lurked, its claws serving as its primary means of attack.”

“The multi-legged monster had simply merged with the black mist, becoming virtually invisible. In other words, this black mist was not just a fog; it was an integral part of the monster.”

Upon hearing Jared’s words, Berthold’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, expressing disbelief as he asked, “How… How did you know?”

“What’s the matter? Was I right?” Seeing the expression on Berthold’s face, Jared couldn’t help but chuckle. “I was merely guessing, didn’t expect you to fall for it…” he said.

Upon seeing the situation, Berthold sternly said, “Jared, even if you’ve guessed correctly, you’ll never be able to kill that monster, because you simply won’t be able to find it.”

“Whether you can find it or not, it’s not for you to decide…”

Jared gave a slight smile, immediately followed by a red glow shimmering on his forehead.

Soon after, a peculiar eye began to rapidly form on Jared’s forehead.

“Um…”

Upon witnessing this peculiar scene involving Jared, everyone was utterly bewildered.

Berthold and Harlan were also looking on in disbelief. They couldn’t understand how Jared, who was perfectly fine, suddenly ended up with an extra eye.

As Jared activated his Nethersky Eye, the whole world transformed into a blanket of grey.

No matter what it was, everything was exposed under the gaze of the Nethersky Eye.

This was indeed the signature move of the Vermilion Demon Lord. In such a minor realm like the Ethereal Realm, nothing could evade the scrutiny of the Nethersky Eye.

Under the gaze of the Nethersky Eye, the multi- legged monster appeared vividly before Jared.

Jared, clutching the Dragonslayer Sword, swiftly thrust it toward the vulnerable spot of the multi-legged monster.

Just now, Jared could only defend passively, which meant he could only sever the claws of the multi-legged monster. He couldn’t inflict any real damage on it at all.

However, things were different now. Empowered by the Nethersky Eye, Jared could clearly discern the silhouette of the multi- legged monster.

Swoosh!

With a swift thrust of the sword, Dragonslayer Sword instantly pierced through the body of the multi-legged monster.

Immediately following, the Dragonslayer Sword ignited, unleashing a fierce burst of flames.

The multi-legged monster let out a ghastly shriek, immediately engulfed by the flames.

Upon witnessing the situation, Berthold hurriedly used the Divine Flame Seal to absorb the flames. However, the multi-legged monster had already vanished without a trace.

The pervasive black mist had also vanished along with everything else. Watching the dissipating black mist, Berthold found himself completely bewildered.

He couldn’t understand, just how much Jared, a Fourth Level Tribulator, really know?

He even knew the secret technique of the Violet Flame Sect!

Moreover, the third eye from just now clearly indicated a highly formidable technique. Moreover, Jared possessed six kinds of internal flames.

Who was this person, really? How could a Fourth Level Tribulator possess such skills?

Berthold was somewhat taken aback after being bested by Jared. He had used the Divine Flame Seal, managing to execute techniques that could only be performed by those at the Ultimate Realm of the Ghost Mask Sect. Yet, to his surprise, Jared had easily broken through them.
