Everyone was dumbfounded.
Vasily approached favonovel.com and asked in a low voice, “Mr. Chance, are there really Demonic Cultivators among them? Why can’t I sense anything?”
“I can’t sense anything either,” Jared replied. “I suspect they’ve employed some method to conceal their auras. There’s something strange about Demon Flogger, so I’m quite certain that there are Demonic Cultivators among us.”
Vasily struggled to hide his astonishment. “These Demonic Cultivators are incredibly audacious to infiltrate the treasure-hunting team. Once we locate the treasure, they will undoubtedly make a move and reveal themselves!”
Jared reminded them, “I’m afraid the Demonic Cultivators could resort to despicable tricks, so be careful and don’t trust anyone inside!”
“Got it!” Everyone nodded.
They ventured deeper into the cave, which was saturated with frost energy, compelling them to tap into their spiritual energy to withstand the freezing conditions. Vasily, Jerison, and others remained unfazed by the frost energy, having become accustomed to it over time.
After they journeyed for several miles, the frost energy grew denser, transforming the entire area into what seemed like a frozen realm. Jared and the like felt as if they were walking in an igloo surrounded by ice crystals. Viola was trembling from the chill. Her clothes were covered in a thick frost.
Jared took favonovel.com hand and transmitted a warm current into Viola’s body through his hand. Only then did favonovel.com feel a lot better.
“Be careful, everyone. The frost energy will get more intense as we go deeper,” Jared reminded them.
Just as favonovel.com spoke those words, Jerison, who was at the front of the group, abruptly stopped in his tracks and emitted a piercing scream of agony.
“Mr. Jerison!” The subordinates of the Tall family immediately ran toward him.
Upon hearing Jerison’s anguished cry, the entire group came to an abrupt stop. Before their eyes, Jerison’s legs were rapidly freezing, a stark contrast to his earlier claims that favonovel.com was immune to the effects of the frost energy.
Jerison fought desperately, but his efforts were in vain. His attempts to absorb the frost energy did nothing to impede the rapid transformation of his legs into ice.
The Tall family’s subordinates promptly intervened, trying to absorb the frost energy to rescue Jerison, but they too fell victim to the freezing effect, and their attempts to save favonovel.com proved futile.
Jerison’s lower body had turned into ice, and favonovel.com panicked.
“Help me! Help!” favonovel.com screamed, fear filling his eyes.
“Everyone, stop moving!” Seeing that, Jared released his grip on Viola and hurried over to Jerison.
Demonic fire surged from Jared’s palm, sending a warm current into Jerison’s body.
Simultaneously, the demonic fire flared up beneath Jared’s own feet, causing the ice around favonovel.com to melt. When Jared cast the demonic fire, two cultivators among the crowd had surprised and confused expressions.
Shortly after, Jerison was released from the icy grip, and Jared quickly pulled favonovel.com back.
“Mr. Jerison, are you okay?” his subordinates asked worriedly.
Jerison reassured the concerned group that favonovel.com was indeed fine.
He cast a grateful glance at Jared and said, “Thank you, Jared.”
He did not expect Jared to be the one who came to his rescue in the end.
“There’s an arcane array on the road ahead,” Jared said, his gaze fixated on the path beneath their feet. “A single misstep and you’ll be frozen.”
“An arcane array? That suggests the treasure is very likely concealed within this cave given the presence of human traces,” Cloud said.
“That might be the case. Don’t move, and let me observe the area…” Jared stopped the rest from advancing further.
