“Mr. Baal, please calm your anger. That’s not what I meant. I trust you,” Jared apologized repeatedly.


    As he apologized, Jared swiftly moved forward. Since that was a newly opened space, Jared was


    curious to see just how vast it was.


    After all, therger the space that was opened up, the more strength and spiritual energy would be


    consumed.


    Y Just as Jared took a few steps forward, he suddenly froze.


    Before him, a beam of white light gradually appeared, followed by countless twinkling points of light.


    With the emergence of the speck of light, Jared suddenly felt a sense of familiarity with that ce, yet


    he couldn’t recall why for a moment.


    As Jared was lost in thought, the countless points of light surprisingly began to merge slowly, swiftly


    transforming into a human form.


    Initially, the figure was ethereal, its featurespletely indiscernible.


    However, as the human figure became increasingly solid, Jared was instantly stunned.


    Upon seeing the person who materialized from the specks of light, Jared immediately cursed, “F*ck!


    Why is it you?”


    “Hahaha! I expected you would show up, brat!”


    The solidified phantom let out a heartyugh and said to Jared, “No wonder I felt a sense of familiarity


    with this aura just now but couldn’t ce it for a moment. So, it turns out to be you, Mr. Baal. Did you


    set up this restraint?”


    Jared’s face was filled with excitement. He joyfully stepped forward, intending to embrace Baal.


    Regrettably, Baal was merely an illusion, impossible to grasp.


    “I merely left behind a trace of my soul for the sake of seeing you, brat. Unexpectedly, you didn’t keep


    me waiting for long,” Baal said with augh.


    “Mr. Baal, can you tell me what exactly is going on?”


    “After realizing that Baal had set the restraint, Jared felt relieved. He wanted to know what exactly Baal


    had experienced after returning to Ethereal Realm.”


    “Okay. I’ll tell you.” With a smile, Baal began to speak.

    Jared listened quietly, unconcerned about whether anyone was still attempting to break through the


    restraint.


    After Baal returned to Ethereal Realm with the soul of Lunarius Pce’s holy maiden, he sought


    Demonia Sect to acquire Demonia Stone, aiming to help the holy maiden of Lunarius Pce restore


    her physical body.


    That was the only way the holy maiden of Lunarius Pce could be revived and then rebuild Lunarius


    Pce anew.


    However, when Baal came to reim Demonia Stone, he was fiercely rebuffed by Norman. In a fit of


    rage, Baal hid Demonia Sect’s cultivation technique secret scrolls within a mountain cave andid


    down more than a dozen restraints.


    Moreover, he also took with him most of Demonia Sect’s Demonia Stones, leaving Demonia Sect with


    only one final piece.


    Norman was taken aback but didn’t dare to obstruct. Moreover, hecked the ability to do SO.


    Fortunately, Baal was not a murderer. He merely taught Demonia Sect a lesson, destroying the


    physical bodies of several disciples. However, he did not obliterate their souls altogether.


    As long as their souls remained and Norman could seek Trystan’s help to restore those disciples’


    physical bodies, they would essentially be revived.


    Following that, Norman began to use Demonia Stone as a reward, hoping to persuade others to


    retrieve the cultivation technique secret scrolls. Unfortunately, all his attempts ended in failure.


    “Mr. Baal, how did you know I woulde to Ethereal Realm and Demonia Sect, and even breaching


    your restraints?” Jared was quite puzzled, wondering how Baal could have known.


    “Have you forgotten, brat? I told you long ago. We would reunite in Ethereal Realm. The mundane


    world is too small for a real dragon like you. Not to mention the mundane world, even Ethereal Realm is


    too small for you. You’ll eventually ascend to the celestial realm. As for how I knew you woulde to


    Demonia Sect, it was because I figured Whalreth’s soul remnant would have to be attached to another


    person’s body because he couldn’t restore his physical body. And if he wanted to restore his physical


    body, he needed the Demonia Stone. This guy couldn’t find anyone to help him search for the Demonia


    Stone, so he could only turn to you. That was why I left a strand of my soul in this restraint, waiting for


    you toe.”
