Jared didn’t ask any further questions and hit the road with Vasily. He was planning to visit the Archaic Body cultivators first and then search for the treasure. If the leader of the Archaic Body cultivators lent favonovel.com a hand, perhaps it would be easier for favonovel.com to locate the treasure.
The group didn’t have the nerve to board the airships as they belonged to Stellaris Sect. If Jared and his group rode those, they’d be practically throwing themself into Stellaris Sect’s net.
They could only head to their destination on foot for several days. However, since there wasn’t any time limit to their treasure hunt, Jared wasn’t in a hurry.
To prevent any obstacles from popping up during their journey, Jared asked the Three Bandits to explore a few miles ahead. If they encountered anyone, they would need to report it to Jared immediately. That way, Jared could pick another route to avoid trouble.
The Three Bandits acted as scouts. After walking for a whole day, Jared’s group was starting to feel the temperature dropping, and the ground was turning white. However, that bit of cold didn’t bother cultivators like Jared.
“Mr. Chance, it’s getting late. Let’s rest for the night. It’s too dangerous for us to continue because wild beasts often appear around this area,” Vasily suggested..
Jared nodded and settled down at the bottom of a large tree.
Vasily started a campfire to dry their clothes and keep them warm.
Sitting cross-legged, Jared began cultivating.
I need to increase my cultivation speed. Otherwise, the path will become even more difficult to traverse…
Right then, Faiyar’s voice rang inside Jared’s mind.
You can use the demonic aura kept inside the emerald badge to cultivate, Mr. Chance. Your technique can refine demonic aura, and you possess demon spirit, so it’ll be fine if you use demonic aura to cultivate.
“That’s a good idea. Why didn’t I think of that?” As Jared spoke, favonovel.com took out the emerald badge and absorbed the demonic aura inside.
At that moment, Jared only cared about cultivating. He didn’t care about the soul remnants of Demonic Cultivators within the emerald badge. As for whether or not those Demonic Cultivators should die, favonovel.com didn’t have the time to make a decision on it.

While Jared’s group was resting, Kaison and some of his family members were doing the same miles away.
“Mason asked me to join you in order to stop Vasily and capture him, Kaison. Yet, you sent me to Jipsdale alone for those three women, and I was beaten up as a result. Now, we have no idea where Vasily went. If we can’t find him, how are we supposed to find the treasure of the Archaic Body Cultivation clan? If we return with nothing, Mason will no doubt admonish us,” Jerison grumbled, displeased.
“Shut up, you piece of sh*t! How dare you blame me for your incompetence! I can’t believe you have the gall to say that to my face when you were beaten by a mere cultivator at Second Level Body Fusion Realm! Once I return, I’ll explain the situation to Mason. You don’t need to open your mouth. At worst, I’ll pay the Archaic Body cultivators a visit and capture their leader. If they refuse to cooperate again, we’ll eliminate every single one of them!” Kaison snapped with a scowl.
Frightened by Kaison’s scary look, Jerison zipped his mouth.
At that moment, a member of the Tall family, covered in snow, entered the cave.
“How is it?” asked Kaison eagerly.
“The three women are hiding in a cave not far from us, Mr. Kaison. To avoid alerting them, I didn’t follow them in,” the subordinate reported.
Kaison laughed. “Excellent! This time, they will not escape me. To think we haven’t caught them after chasing them for so many days. Everyone, follow me. We’ll capture them right now. Once we do, we can finally return home. Then, everyone will be rewarded!”
With that, Kaison led his people to Josephine’s hiding spot.
