Chapter 2496 Disadvantageous


    As the members of Divine Smithing Sect had been locked up for over a decade, they were weak.


    Moreover, they were injured, so they had a hard time gaining an upper hand over the members of Evil


    Heart Sect.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    At that, Quindon and the emissaries took off their masks to join the fight. The second Aislin saw her


    father, she darted over to him. However, when her gazended on his purple robe, disbelief entered


    her eyes.


    Nevertheless, it was not the right time for Quindon to exin everything to her. He could only focus on


    his fight against the members of Evil Heart Sect.


    With Quindon and the emissaries joining in, the members of Evil Heart Sect started waning in the fight.


    Meanwhile, Malphas was hiding in a corner as he watched the battle unfold, not knowing what to do.


    Tanner, who was floating in the air, could see everyone from his position.


    Tanner showed no signs of anger despite noticing Malphas hiding in a corner.


    There was no sorrow in Tanner''s eyes as he watched the members of Evil Heart Sect fall one after


    another, lifeless. It was as if those who died were nothing but strangers to him.


    Jared and Skr engaged in a fierce battle, swinging their swords with great vigor. Despite Skr


    having a higher cultivation level than Jared, he soon realized that he was losing his advantage in the


    fight.


    The realization darkened Skr''s expression, fueling his determination as he swung his sword with


    even greater ferocity.


    As everyone was preupied with their respective battles, no one noticed that a ck hole in Divine


    Quest Sect''s secret realm was absorbing the aura the people were unleashing.


    All aura, anger, murderous intent, and even the souls of the dead were getting sucked into the ck


    hole.


    Having no idea of its existence, the people continued fighting to their deaths.


    As the battle intensified, the casualties mounted, and the wicked grin spread across Tanner''s face grew


    ever more pronounced.


    “Jared, how can you keep up in the fight against me for such a long time despite having a lesser


    cultivation level than me? Why? Why is this so? Do you know how much suffering I had to go through


    to kill you?”


    Skr could not fathom why he was unable to defeat Jared despite upgrading himself by absorbing the


    power of others.


    “Do you think that this fight has gone on for far too long? In that case, let''s end this.”


    In a swift motion, Jared hurled his Dragonyer Sword, and his body began to emit a radiant golden


    glow. As the glow intensified, shimmering golden scales emerged, enveloping his entire form.


    Skr froze. He never thought that Jared would toss his weapon.


    Though he sensed that Jared had to have a reason for that, he could not pass up the chance of striking


    Jared down while Jared was unarmed before him.


    “Die!”


    Skr unleashed an immensely powerful strike, unleashing a colossal beam of golden light that surged


    toward Jared with incredible force.


    Boom!


    The sound of a thunderous explosion was apanied by a blinding burst of light. In the next


    moment, a frenzied aura began rushing in all directions.


    The sh had stupefied all the fighting people as they stared at the air in a trance.


    Jared''s body was struck by the sword, and he plummeted like a meteor before crashing heavily onto


    the ground. The impact created a deep create that spanned over ten meters in diameter.


    The turn of events left the members of Divine Smithing Sect in a state of shock. They had anticipated


    Jared''s return to Ethereal Realm, only to witness his demise as soon as he made a move.


    Quindon and the others were equally taken aback by the oue. They had not anticipated that Jared


    would struggle against Skr, so how was he supposed to defeat Tanner and Evil Heart Sect?


    Meanwhile, Skr nced down at the smoke and saw no sign of Jared''s body—he only saw the dust-


    filled ground. At that, he could not help but burst intoughter.


    “Hahaha! Jared, at the end of the day, you''re still no match for me. I''ve finally killed you!”


    Skr was ted and smug.


    What he did not notice was the presence of the sword spirit, Zelda, who was brandishing a sharp sword


    and poised to strike him from above.


    Tanner could see that Zelda was about to deal a fatal blow to Skr, but he made no move to


    intervene.
