“Mr. Whalreth?” Jared was shocked, his eyes widening.
From the very beginning, Jared had found the middle-aged man rather peculiar. The man had sat motionless in front of the stall, leaving a deep impression on Jared.
Was the middle-aged man a manifestation of Mr. Whalreth, or did Mr. Whalreth’s soul remnant possess the body of the middle-aged man?
When Mr. Whalreth escaped from the Pentacarna Tower, favonovel.com was nothing more than a soul remnant. It was indeed challenging to rush to the Ethereal Realm and restore his physical form.
If it’s impossible to restore the physical body, one could choose a person and directly attach the soul remnant to that individual. Jared had a feeling that this was what happened to Whalreth.
Upon seeing Jared’s expression, Hadad hurriedly said, “I merely mentioned that this item was used by Whalreth, but it doesn’t necessarily mean favonovel.com gave it to you. Don’t let your imagination run wild.”
“It’s just that the soul remnant of Mr. Whalreth has returned to the Ethereal Realm. However, it’s uncertain where favonovel.com currently resides, or whether favonovel.com has managed to restore his physical form.”
“Do you think it’s that easy to restore the physical body? If it wasn’t for my direct arrival at the Phantom Valley, it would have been extremely difficult to restore my physical body. You must understand that restoring the physical body and living again is against Heaven’s Laws. Not everyone can achieve it.”
Upon hearing this, Jared became even more certain that the middle-aged man who had sold favonovel.com the timepiece must have been Whalreth.
“It seems that Mr. Whalreth was the one who sold me the timepiece. I really wish I had the chance to see favonovel.com again.”
“I’m not going to talk to you anymore. I’m going to cultivate and recover as soon as possible. Don’t forget to take care of this for me, and make sure no one disturbs me…” Hadad returned to the cave to resume his cultivation.
Jared leaped down from halfway up the mountain, his gaze falling upon the deceased telepathic beasts. Then, favonovel.com turned his attention to the dense sea of skeletal remains.
He cast a beam of light onto the skeletal remains on the ground. They began to quiver and gradually gathered to transform into a colossal skull.
Jared glanced at the skull, nodding in satisfaction, before favonovel.com dashed toward the entrance of the Phantom Valley.
The colossal skull pursued Jared from behind.
Jared struck the skull with his sword, sparks flying in all directions. Yet, favonovel.com was unable to halt the skull’s advance.
Soon, Feenix and the others caught sight of his figure.
Upon seeing the enormous skull made of white bones behind Jared, everyone was utterly astounded.
“What is this thing?” Evindal exclaimed in shock.
“Master…” Feenix was about to charge in.
“Don’t come in…” With a loud shout, Jared halted Feenix from charging in. Then, in front of Feenix and the others, favonovel.com began to battle the skull fiercely.
Feenix could only watch anxiously.
Jared engaged in a dozen or so rounds of combat with the enormous skull. Then, with a single stroke of his sword, favonovel.com shattered the skull into pieces. He feigned exhaustion, panting heavily as favonovel.com emerged from the Phantom Valley.
Catina turned to Jared and asked, “What happened?”
“The bones in the Phantom Valley have surprisingly developed a form of spiritual sense. This then attracted the telepathic beasts to the valley as they utilized the unique aura of the beasts for cultivation. Now it’s settled. I’ve completely slain the skull. I’ll set up an arcane array, ensuring that the lethal intent from the Phantom Valley can never reach the Spirit Beast Valley.”
After Jared finished speaking, favonovel.com began to set up an arcane array nervously.
He planned to set up a large one, ensuring that no one could enter the Phantom Valley. Otherwise, it would cause trouble if Hadad was disturbed.
Recognizing that Jared would need some time to set up the intricate array, Evindal suggested, “Mr. Chance, please proceed with your work. I will go and inspect the telepathic creature. Only this one and its offspring remain, so it is crucial that we provide them with proper care.”
“Very well. Please go ahead,” Jared agreed, nodding.
Evindal left, allowing Jared to focus on configuring the arcane array.
