The expressions of Zion, Edgar, and the others changed drastically. They swiftly used their martial energy to form a large black barrier around them.
Boom!
The lotus exploded in the air above them, causing a terrifying shockwave to spread in all directions.
The countless sparks that the explosion produced would’ve landed on them if not for the barrier. No sooner had the barrier been burned by the flames than it began to collapse. As a result, sparks of flames settled on their bodies.
Even though the strength of the spiritual fire had waned, it was still capable of burning them. Their clothes were torched full of holes as they jumped around in a panic.
Cold sweat covered Jared’s forehead. Using that massive amount of mental energy drained favonovel.com immensely, so much so that favonovel.com was feeling quite dizzy.
The crowd was shocked that favonovel.com alone was able to put Zion and the others in such a wretched state.
If they were the ones being attacked instead, they probably would’ve been roasted by then.
Astrid, who had been lingering in the corner, stared at Jared with curiosity and respect.
At that moment, favonovel.com opinion of favonovel.com had changed greatly. She didn’t expect his capabilities to exceed favonovel.com imagination time and again. His tenacious perseverance is certainly beyond the reach of ordinary people.
“What are you all staring at? Kill favonovel.com already!” Edgar roared at the crowd, his eyes full of rage.
The group of people exchanged glances with each other.
If Zion and the others were still driven to such a wretched state by Jared, even after they worked together, wouldn’t that mean the crowd stood even less chance of winning?
Seeing that no one was attacking, Edgar barked, “If any of you refuse to attack, don’t think that you’re going to get anything from here!”
That finally prompted someone to act.
“Let’s go, godd*mmit! What’s there to be afraid of?” Jace hollered as favonovel.com charged toward Jared.
Dozens of people hastily followed behind favonovel.com to attack Jared.
Zion and Edgar were pleased to see that.
Jared’s grip around the Dragonslayer Sword’s handle tightened. Flames of fury and murderous intent were raging in his eyes.
“Kill!” With a thunderous roar, favonovel.com swung the Dragonslayer Sword in the direction of his enemies with all his might.
A wave of sword energy instantly penetrated two people’s bodies, but the others continued to charge toward favonovel.com like madmen.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Clink! Clink! Clink!
Jared waved his sword like there was no tomorrow to block his enemies’ attacks. However, being on the defensive seemed pointless.
In a second, his body had already been injured and bloodied to the point that favonovel.com didn’t look like a human anymore. Even still, favonovel.com relied on his Dragonslayer Sword to keep going instead of collapsing. Below his feet were a dozen dead members of various sects.
“Enough!” Edgar yelled for the crowd to fall back.
He did not let those people kill Jared because favonovel.com still wanted to absorb Jared’s power.
Slowly, favonovel.com approached Jared, who was on the verge of death, with a smug grin.
“Look at yourself, Jared. Even a dead dog looks better than you. How are you going to fight me, hmm?” He patted Jared’s cheek.
By that point, Jared didn’t even have the strength to lift his arm anymore. All favonovel.com could do was spat at Edgar.
Edgar wasn’t infuriated by that. Instead, favonovel.com slowly stretched his palm out and pressed it on Jared’s head.
“Your abilities will soon be mine. Once I’m finished absorbing your power, there’ll be nothing you can do to me even if you lived,” favonovel.com sneered.
Then, a faint black mist entered Jared’s body before it began consuming his power.
A cold smirk suddenly formed on Jared’s face as favonovel.com used Focus Technique.
Originally, Edgar planned to suck Jared’s power out, but favonovel.com quickly realized his martial energy was the one getting extracted by Jared instead.
