It had been days since Jared started waiting for Axton to return with the medicinal herbs at Medicine
God Sect. Each passing day felt like a year to him.
Fortunately, Lizbeth had left Thousands of Miles Away in Medicine God Sect. Thus, he could take the
opportunity to use Thousands of Miles Away for his cultivation.
Like every other day, Jared unrolled Thousands of Miles Away and let his spiritual sense enter the
painting. Inside the painting, the icy wind howled, but the biting cold of the wind was nothing in
comparison to the concentrated spiritual energy in the area.
However, Jared did not dive straight into cultivation the moment he entered the painting.
Frankly, he had only used the painting a handful of times before giving it to Lizbeth and Renee.
Therefore, he did not quite understand how it worked.
Every time he entered, a different scene greeted him. At that, he could not imagine how skillful the
creator had to be to have used teleportation magecraft on a painting.
Jared slowly walked down the snowy path and soon realized there was nothing around but snow and
more snow.
Right as he was about to stop walking and start cultivating, he spotted smoke rising into the air a short
distance away from him.
“Is there someone here?” Jared muttered in surprise. “Is this an actual world?”
He then hastily headed in the direction of the rising smoke. Only when he was much closer did he
realize the smoke was steam from a hot spring.
A hot spring in the middle of a snowynd? This is peculiar!
Jared stared at the steaming hot spring for a while. Shortly after, he gave in to the temptation, taking off
his clothes and getting into the hot spring.

After all, no one was around. He was in a manmade dimension, so he did not need to fear someone
spotting him in that state. As Jared sat in the hot spring, he felt waves of pure spiritual energy surging
into his body.
It thrilled him greatly. Never did he expect the spiritual energy in the hot spring to be far purer than the
spiritual energy of thend and the air.
Immediately, Jared closed his eyes and activated his Focus Technique.
The pure spiritual energy began to course through his body.
In no time, his body was enveloped by spiritual energy, and it felt as if he was sitting in clouds. Then,
the spiritual energy began rushing toward his elixir field.
The unending streams of spiritual energy kept flowing into his body, and his cultivation gradually grew.
After some time, a series of loud knocks on a door startled Jared. As soon as he opened his eyes, his
body vanished from the hot spring.
Following that, the merry voices of two women came closer.
If Jared were still in the hot spring when the two women arrived, he would have been shocked, for the
two women were none other than Hailey and Autumn.
The ce that Thousands of Miles Away brought Jared to was not a manmade dimension. Instead, it
was one of the eight .major secret realms, the ever-snowing Secret Realm of Tremere, where the Gate
of Thunder and Violet Cloud Pce were located.
The change in scenery in Thousands of Miles Away was actually a change in secret realms. As each
secret realm had a different environment, Jared was greeted with different sights every time he came to
cultivate.
The truth was that Thousands of Miles Away was a portal painting of the eight secret realms, but that
was something Jared had yet to find out.
“Autumn, doe into the hot spring today. I was the one who caused you to be grievously injured the
other time,” Hailey apologetically said to Autumn.
“Stop pulling my leg, Ms. Hargreaves. This hot. spring isn’t something we servants can enter,” Autumn
replied as she waved her hand. Then, she said, “Ms. Hargreaves, let me take off your clothes for you.”
Right as Hailey took off her clothes and entered the hot spring, she froze and furrowed her brows. “Ms.
Hargreaves, what’s the matter?” Autumn worriedly asked.
