A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 6443

"At the same time, the pressure carried within that spiritual essence had grown far stronger, far sharper.

It was no longer the mild, frail cultivation power of the Sixteenth Firmament. This was top-tier energy laced with the order of a higher world and the domineering pulse of nascence itself.

Even without form, it pressed down until his spirit sank slightly under the weight."

"More importantly, deep inside that spiritual essence, a kind of nascence power flowed and spread unchecked.

It stood beyond ordinary spiritual power, beyond the cultivation of the mundane world. Ancient, timeworn, and heavy with authority, it carried its own binding force from the higher laws of the world."

"Jared understood at once.

He locked onto the source of that power in the same instant, and a hard shadow passed through his gaze.

Golden Immortal Law."

"His cultivation had stopped at the True Immortal realm. He had never stepped across the Golden Immortal threshold, and he had never had the chance to personally comprehend or cultivate the Golden Immortal Great Path.

But he had seen too much on the road that had brought him here. More than that, Aldric, an old and seasoned powerhouse, still sat within his consciousness field.

By now, Jared knew Golden Immortal Law well enough to recognize it with a single glance."

"By then, Jared had already made an exact judgment.

He had long since left the Sixteenth Firmament. Aurelius and Cassian, the two Golden Immortals, had forcibly carried him into a higher firmament of the celestial realm."

"The situation had grown more dangerous. His position had become more passive with every breath.

Even so, Jared’s spirit did not scatter, and his mind did not lurch out of place."

"He knew exactly what he had left.

Only a wisp of soul remained. He had no physical body to rely on, no outside help to lean on, and no freedom to move.

If he let himself grow restless now, he would only disturb his own mind, ruin his footing, and add risk for nothing."

Only by meeting it with a level head could he find that single thread of life.

"Without revealing the slightest movement, he drove his faint spirit sense with an extremely steady will and sent a silent transmission into the depths of the consciousness field.

“Aldric.”"

"A moment after the call faded, a remnant will answered slowly from the hidden recesses of the consciousness field.

It sounded faint and insubstantial, its aura weak, but it remained even and condensed."

“I’m here.”

"Aldric's voice carried a trace of exhaustion he could not quite cover.

The Aureate Codex had protected him, but Aldric's remnant soul was too weak. Enduring soul-refinement had worn him down badly."

"After a brief pause, his tone sank low.

“I have already examined the surrounding aura of the world. The density of the spiritual essence has surged, and the level of the laws of the realm has risen by a wide margin."

“The drifting Golden Immortal law-fragments are dense and abundant. Taking everything together, the place we are in now is at least the lands of the Seventeenth Firmament. There is no mistake.”

The Seventeenth Firmament.

Jared repeated it silently within himself.

"Venerable Emberlain and Venerable Frostgrave had joined forces before and launched a furious assault.

They had used every method they had, yet they had still failed to break through the Aureate Codex’s absolute defense. They could not refine Jared’s spirit, and they could not seize the relic."

"They refused to let the matter end there. They would not let a sovereign relic slip away for nothing.

At the same time, they could not bear to kill Jared outright and cut off their own hope. Nor were they willing to spend their own nascence in a long, grinding assault."

"After turning it over from every angle, they had only one scheme left.

They would carry Jared across realms into the higher Seventeenth Firmament, seek shelter with the foremost Golden Immortal adepts here, and borrow other hands to break the defense together, refine his spirit, and seize the Aureate Codex."

"Their calculation was precise.

Their intent was poisonous to the bone."

“The situation is dangerous. Powerful enemies are everywhere. This place is packed with adepts far beyond anything in the Sixteenth Firmament.”

"Jared sent the words in a low transmission.
