Lamar's eyes widened in disbelief as he watched Jared's astonishing display of power.
Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that he could not self-destruct to bring Jared down with him.
Standing before Lamar, Jared stared at the trapped, helpless man with a smug expression on his face.
“Jared, don't celebrate just yet. I'm not the only purple-robed emissary. Besides, the spiritual energy will soon be restored. When that happens, you will all die,” Lamar growled at Jared through gritted teeth.
“I can't say for sure if I'll still be alive then, but you're certainly going to die now!” Jared declared, his hand striking the man with unwavering resolve.
With that, Lamar's cultivation was swiftly drained out of his body, and he soon turned into a dried corpse.
Having absorbed Lamar's and Kayden's cultivation, Jared could feel the aura within his body surging.
It was a telltale sign of an imminent breakthrough.
Jared surveyed the corpses of the demon beasts that strewn the ground, then said to Chester and Wayne, “Great Elder, Mr. Gingerich, lead our men in collecting the beast cores from the dead demon beasts. With these cores, I may finally achieve the breakthrough I seek.”
“Master, if you desire, I can command these demon beasts to regurgitate their cores for you,” Feenix offered.
With a single command from her, the demon beasts would sacrifice themselves and regurgitate the beast cores.
However, Jared waved his hand dismissively. “There's no need for that. I still need them to tackle the other secret realms.”
However, Jared waved his hand dismissively. “There's no need for that. I still need them to tackle the other secret realms.”
Those surviving demon beasts held immense value to Jared.
Moreover, the fierce battle had claimed the lives of many demon beasts; he believed the cores collected from them would be sufficient.
Soon, the beast cores were presented before Jared, formed in a pile radiating a kaleidoscope of vibrant colors.
