“I didn‘t see it. Could it have been swept up in that storm?” Carlo felt a bit flustered inside.
He was then kicking himself for asking that unnecessary question.
“That could be it. I’ll go have a look. You guys can head to the small island and rest first…”
With a wave of his hand, Ventus signaled to Carlo and the rest that they were free to leave.
Carlo let out a long sigh of relief, immediately ordering his men to maneuver their spirit ship, intending to bypass Ventus and their spirit ship.
Seeing the situation in the cabin, all the alchemists onboard also quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Even Jared began to relax. He had been in the cabin all along, maintaining a cloaking formation to conceal the auras of these alchemists to avoid detection by others.
However, it was precisely during this moment of relaxation, at the instant when two ships passed each other, that Ventus’ brow furrowed.
An elderly man, slightly hunched over, said to Ventus, “Mr. Mulligan, there are still people inside this spirit ship…”
“Mr. Graham, please wait a moment!” Ventus managed to halt Carlo in his tracks.
At this point, Carlo’s heart was once again in his throat.
“Mr. Mulligan, is there anything else?” Carlo asked.
“Mr. Graham, there are others in your cabin, aren’t there?” Ventus asked straightforwardly.
“No… Look at the state of the spirit ship. It’s completely wrecked. How could anyone possibly still be on it?” Carlo shook his head.
“Hmph! Still trying to lie, huh? It’s clear there are people in your cabin, yet you claim otherwise!” The hunchbacked elder scoffed, surprisingly leaping toward Carlo‘s spirit ship.
Carlo was frightened when the hunchbacked elder was about to rush into the cabin. If that elder were to enter the cabin, the alchemists hidden inside would surely be discovered.
Just as Carlo found himself at a loss, a chilling voice suddenly echoed from within the cabin. “Do you really think you’re worthy of entering the place where I rest?”
As the icy voice echoed, a surge of spiritual energy wildly pulsed throughout the cabin.
Boom!
An arrow, forged in the internal flame, burst forth like a fire dragon, charging straight toward the hunchbacked elder.
The hunchbacked old man was taken aback, struck by the internal flame. His entire body was hurled backward in an instant.
After that, Jared, hands clasped behind his back, slowly emerged from the cabin. His eyes were filled with contempt and coldness.
Watching as the hunched old man was thrown back, Jared casually waved his hand, instantly activating Dragon Fury.
Suddenly, the sky and earth changed hues as flames engulfed the heavens and blocked out the sun.
Dragon Fury swept up the hunchbacked old man directly into its midst before wreaking havoc across the sea surface with wild abandon.
Upon witnessing this scene, everyone was dumbfounded, especially Ventus.
This hunchbacked elder was a respected figure from Sky Slasher Sect, possessing abilities of Ultimate Realm Level One. They thought favonovel.com couldn’t possibly be defeated by someone in a single move. Furthermore, considering Jared’s youthful appearance, favonovel.com seemed to be nothing more than a Sixth Level Tribulator.
A cultivator at Sixth Level Tribulator had utterly defeated someone from Ultimate Realm Level One, leaving favonovel.com with no power to fight back. What was even more astonishing was that the former seemed to have done it with remarkable ease.
Who exactly is this guy?
The internal flame he’s using is incredibly pure. It seems his mastery over the internal flame has already reached perfection…
With a slight frown, Ventus looked at Jared.
With a mere wave of his hand, favonovel.com could summon internal flame. This clearly indicated that favonovel.com had already grasped the essence of fire nascence. Otherwise, favonovel.com wouldn’t have been able to do it with such proficiency. Even after understanding fire nascence, a Sixth Level Tribulator shouldn’t have been able to unleash such power.
As Ventus was left utterly puzzled, Jared, with an icy expression, said to Carlo, “Carlo, how do you handle things? Don’t you know I don’t like to be disturbed?”
Upon seeing the situation, Carlo quickly stepped forward and apologized, “Sir, I’m truly sorry. I was careless…”
Seeing how much respect Carlo had for Jared left Ventus even more bewildered.
Duad Formation Sect was indeed a significant sect specializing in arcane arrays. The leader of such a large sect was actually showing immense respect to a minor Sixth Level Tribulator.
There could only be one reason for this. Jared’s identity was far from ordinary.
