About two hours later, thousands of skeletons were eradicated by Jared. The ivory bones scattered on the ground vanished as they were reduced to dust and dispersed with the wind.
Jared retracted his six shadow clones and let out a long sigh.
Sheer shock filled Matthew, Great Diviner, and the others as they stared at Jared. They never thought Jared’s shadow clone could have actual powers.
After all, an ordinary person’s shadow clone was only used to throw off enemies. Their shadow clones generally had no powers, but that was not the case for Jared. Not only did his shadow clones have powers, but they could even fight against enemies.
Jared, on the other hand, was feeling something different. Usually, his spiritual energy could not support the shadow clones for such long hours when favonovel.com unleashed Nine Shadows.
To his surprise, the shadow clones held up even though two hours had passed. Moreover, his energy never seemed to run out.
At that moment, favonovel.com felt as if there was another form of energy in his body, something different from spiritual energy and the Power of Dragons.
Immediately, favonovel.com activated his elixir field and let his spiritual sense flow over his body. Only then did favonovel.com notice a grey, misty aura lingering above his elixir field.
Jared tried to refine the aura, but no matter how hard favonovel.com tried, the aura could not be brought into his elixir field to be refined into spiritual energy.
“Maybe this aura needs to be fused with the Power of Dragons,” Jared muttered to himself, frowning.
Following that, favonovel.com released a wave of the Power of Dragons, allowing it to encircle the aura so the two forces could merge. To his disappointment, the two seemed to repel each other.
The Power of Dragons could not fuse with the grey, misty aura.
“What a weird aura. What exactly is it?” Jared had a tense look on his face, for favonovel.com did not know if the aura would harm his body.
“Mr. Chance… Are you all right?” Matthew called out when favonovel.com saw Jared standing perfectly still.
He feared the latter was injured.
“Oh, I’m fine. Let’s go.” Jared quickly snapped out of his thoughts and flashed a smile.
He was not experiencing any side effects or discomfort yet. Hence, favonovel.com did not have to bother about the aura, at least not for now. With that, Jared continued making his way into the mountains with Matthew and the rest.
They had only taken a few steps when a gale suddenly swept through the area, followed by the appearance of a blurry figure that slowly approached them.
Anxiousness gripped everyone at the scene because they could sense the dangerous aura the figure was exuding.
“Ah…” Skyler shrieked in fear when favonovel.com was able to see the face of the approaching figure clearly.
The figure was not a human, but a horrifying-looking zombie with its ivory facial bones exposed to the air. Even Matthew and the others were shocked to see a zombie suddenly appearing before their eyes.
“Who are you? Get out of here this instant. This is the place that serves to restrain Hadad. Entering here is a crime punishable by death,” the zombie reprimanded Jared and the rest loudly.
Its words left everyone utterly dumbfounded.
Isn’t this a secret realm that has all kinds of treasures?
Why did it suddenly become a place to restrain Hadad?
And who exactly is Hadad?
Even Jared knitted his brows in confusion after hearing this.
“Isn’t this an ancient ruin that has lots of treasures? We’re only here on a treasure hunt.”
“Hah! There are no treasures here. Leave now or you’ll die,” said the zombie with fury.
Jared was caught in a dilemma. After all, the elderly man clearly said the place was filled with treasures and that Jared could summon his spirit to return to Ethereal Realm.
Why are things different now?
Jared would never put in all that effort into bringing the skull there if there were no treasures.
While Jared was at a loss for what to do, the air shook, and another shadow clone appeared before them. It was an elderly man with white hair and at cloak with skull patterns.
