Jared surveyed his surroundings and immediately recognized it as an illusion array.
“What an impressive illusion array, so realistic!” Jared exclaimed after taking a look around.
Suddenly, agonized screams echoed from nearby.
Hearing the commotion, Jared hurriedly rushed towards the source and discovered a group of demon beasts attacking a few cultivators.
The cultivators turned out to be Magnus and his companions, but only a few of them remained and they were clearly overwhelmed by the demon beasts.
Jared was certain that they were from the Nethersky Sect, even though favonovel.com didn’t know Magnus and the others.
He glanced around and noticed that only Magnus and his companions were present. Pablo was nowhere to be seen.
After a moment of contemplation, a faint smile appeared on Jared’s face.
He activated the Impersonation Technique and quickly transformed into Pablo’s appearance. Jared looked at his new appearance and couldn’t help but smile, pleased with the result. Although favonovel.com hadn’t fully mastered the technique, favonovel.com could replicate appearances perfectly.
As Pablo, Jared charged forward and with a swift strike of his palm, a ripple vibrated through the void. Astonishingly, all the ferocious demon beasts slowly faded away as if they were mere illusions.
Magnus and his companions were pale-faced, staring at the spot where the demon beasts had disappeared, still catching their breath.
“Master, where have you been? Thank goodness you showed up, or we would have been in grave danger,” Magnus said, relieved to see Pablo.
The other members of the Nethersky Sect also expressed their gratitude to Jared. If favonovel.com hadn’t arrived in time, they might have all perished.
Jared secretly breathed a sigh of relief when favonovel.com realized that none of them had seen through his disguise. However, when Magnus addressed favonovel.com as Master, Jared realized that Pablo had unexpectedly become the sect leader of the Nethersky Sect.
“I was just exploring, trying to figure out how to escape from here,” Jared replied casually.
“Master, how did you make all those demon beasts disappear earlier? It was as if they were illusions, Magnus asked, confused.
“Those demon beasts were indeed illusions. We are trapped in an illusion array,” Jared explained.
Hearing this, Magnus was taken aback. “But Master, you said earlier that they weren’t illusions and that they could harm us. You even used your Nethersky Eye to confirm it, didn’t you?”
Jared’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing that.
He quickly clarified, “When I used the Nethersky Eye to observe the demon beasts, they were real and capable of causing harm. However, this high-level illusion array managed to deceive even my Nethersky Eye. I’ve reexamined everything with the Nethersky Eye and found the core of the illusion array. Once we destroy it, we can escape from here.”
Magnus was extremely shocked. “There’s actually such a realistic illusion array in this world? It must have been created by an immortal. Master, where is the core? Let’s hurry and destroy it. This place is too terrifying.”
Jared nodded and led Magnus and the others in search of the core. Although the illusion array was advanced, it was no match for Jared. He quickly located the core.
“Master, now that we’ve found the core, let us handle the task of breaking the arcane array,” Magnus offered hastily.
He didn’t want to appear incompetent in front of Pablo, fearing that favonovel.com would be left behind.
Jared nodded and watched as Magnus and the few members of the Nethersky Sect used the core to break the arcane array.
Magnus proved to have some skills. Within minutes, the sky turned pitch black.
When the sky brightened again, Jared realized that they were already at the peak of the mountain. The ancient and majestic palace stood before them once more.
