Dwight’s face turned ugly but favonovel.com did not say a word; favonovel.com just stared at Jack.
Jack heaved a sigh and turned around to look at the mist-covered surroundings. According to the map, another ten yards and they would reach the Cliff of Sorrow. No one knew just how deep the cliff was and it was named so because no one had ever made it out alive once they jumped down the cliff, filling their loved ones with deep sorrow.
“I’ve brushed up on all the dangerous areas before coming to Mount Beasts so I am very familiar with the Cliff of Sorrow. One thing all the classics and the other disciples agreed on was that you won’t die from the Cliff of Sorrow,” explained Jack slowly.
Dwight’s lips twitched, favonovel.com could not help but say, “We don’t need you to tell us that. Everybody knows that a cultivator can use his true energy to support his body while falling down the cliff and this will ensure his safety. The reason people die in the Cliff of Sorrow is because of the ancient array!”
Jack nodded. That was what favonovel.com came to understand too. “I think the ancient array is a kind of trap array too and because it’s so old, it has lost its effectiveness. Look at the mist around you… these are all the energy that was released after the ancient array fell into disrepair.”
Jed became more and more confused, not understanding exactly what Jack was trying to get to so his tone became a little aggressive, “What are you trying to say exactly? Just get straight to the point and stop confusing me! Are you saying we should jump down the cliff to save ourselves?”.
Jack shook his head and turned around to look at everyone with a grave expression on his face. “I know of a senior who has been to Cliff of Sorrow before, and favonovel.com has personally experienced the mist that pervades the surrounding area. He said that these mists are made from the energy that escaped from the trap array and that they can confuse people’s hearts and even shield perception. The reason why I brought you here is for the shield perception. It’s easy to get lost here but with enough time we can still make our way back so there’s no need for us to jump down the cliff.”
Finally, it dawned on Dwight why Jack had brought them there. “In other words, you brought us here to shield us from the cyclops canine’s perception so that it won’t be able to find us?”
Jack nodded. They were lucky enough to not have bumped into any of the Corpse Pavilion disciples here, it was because even the Corpse Pavilion disciples knew no one in their right mind would go there. One being no monsters or spirited beasts could be found there and the second reason was there were no spirited plants either. Only those fed up with the world would come here since it would take them a lot of effort to get out of there.
That was why Jack did not hesitate to bring them there. The white mist that pervades the surroundings formed a natural barrier. It would be difficult for the cyclops canine to find them now. Jack would have come here, even if Jed and the others did not want to. After all, it was definitely the safest place on the mountain.
Jed’s face softened a little after this. Jack quickly gestured for them to put Albion down so favonovel.com could tend to his wound himself. It was best not to exhaust favonovel.com further since their little journey here had taken a lot out of him.
After putting Albion down, they began to meditate. Their faces were still filled with anxiety even though they were safe for now, they did not know for sure whether the natural barrier would work.
