Chapter 984 A Dream


    Jared saw the nts swaying in the painting while the shepherdess pranced happily across the slope.


    The painting emanated the aura that Jared had sensed earlier on. It turned out that he had been feeling


    a pull toward this painting all along.


    “D*mn it! We wasted this much effort just for an old painting?” Colin grumbled when he realized there


    was only a painting in the tomb.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Jared looked at him and asked, “Colin, do you see the shepherdess moving in the painting?”


    “What? No.” Colin knitted his brows and asked, “Are you seeing things, Jared? How could the person in


    the painting move?”


    Howard echoed his confusion, “What’s so special about this painting? Why would someone conjure


    such a powerful arcane array to protect it?”


    Jared instinctively frowned when he realized he was the only one who could see the objects in the


    painting moving.


    He slowly extended a stream of spiritual sense toward Thousands of Miles Away. It had scarcely


    neared the painting when a strong force pulled it into the painting.


    Jared felt as if his body had entered the world depicted in the painting. He could see the blue sky


    above him and the greenery beneath his feet. The shepherdess stood not too far away from him.


    The ce was brimming with spiritual energy, almost asmon as oxygen was in the real world.


    He muttered disbelievingly, “Is this a dream? It’s way too realistic.”


    His eyes widened in surprise as he continued to survey his surroundings.


    The shepherdess had noticed him by then and walked toward him.


    “Where are you from?” she asked.


    “I…” Jared trailed off, unsure of what to reply. He did not know how to exin his situation.


    Instead, he replied to her question with one of his own, “Where is this ce?”


    The shepherdess appraised him curiously and said, “This is Encanta Ind. Since you’re already here,


    why wouldn’t you know what this ce is?”


    “Encanta Ind?” Jared frowned upon recognizing the name. Isn’t Encanta Ind the legendary


    magical realm? Am I really standing in a bona fide magical realm now?


    Before Jared could ask the shepherdess more questions, she skipped away and promptly disappeared


    without a trace.


    Jared was shocked. He thought of wandering around the ce to find the shepherdess, yet his body


    suddenly shuddered, and the next thing he saw was Colin in the flesh. He was now standing in the


    tomb instead of Encanta Ind.


    Colin questioned, “What happened, Jared? You were staring so intently at the painting like a fool. You


    didn’t even blink once!”


    Jared could hardly begin to describe what had happened earlier. It seemed like a dream, yet it was


    uncannily realistic. The shepherdess’st words still rang in his mind.


    “Encanta Ind?” he mumbled under his breath.


    Suddenly, someone yelled, “Look! The painting has changed!”


    Everyone in the tomb turned their attention to the painting, which looked starkly different from before.


    Gone were the mountain, river, and shepherdess. Instead, a dense forest now took its ce.


    Many animals were in the forest, and they were very much alive and moving in Jared’s eyes.


    He quickly exuded his spiritual sense toward the painting, and vo, he materialized in the forest just as


    he had done in Encanta Ind. The animals in the forest regarded his arrival cautiously.


    Jared scanned his surroundings and realized that he was alone. He looked for a ce to sit before


    activating his Focus Technique. Streams of spiritual energy began darting into his body.


    The spiritual energy replenished his elixir field, which was almost depleted after the harrowing journey


    into the tomb.


    The draconic essence in his body also began to absorb the spiritual energy around Jared in a near


    frenzied state.


    No one in the tomb noticed the changes in Jared. Their attention was focused wholly on the painting.
