As the strange sounds of water grew increasingly closer, Judith saw countless dense wind blades splitting the seawater. They all came from the black pillars.
In other words, Skylar intended to use the wind blades to turn the two individuals trapped within the enclosure into mincemeat.
As the wind blades approached, beads of cold sweat trickled down Judith’s forehead, and she unconsciously turned her gaze to Jared.
She certainly didn’t possess Jared’s Golem Body. Given her current capabilities, it was also impossible for her to fend the wind blades off.
But she had nowhere to escape, for this entire stretch of sea was enveloped, with wind blades everywhere.
Her only hope was for Jared to quickly set up the arcane array and block the wind blades off.
Otherwise, they might truly end up being turned into mincemeat by the wind blades.
However, seeing that Jared was still engrossed in inscribing the arcane array, Judith could only grit her teeth. She planned to go up against the wind blades herself, buying as much time for him as possible.
After all, the two of them were then on the same boat. Neither could be rid of the other.
“I’m sorry, Master.”
That said, Judith took out a documentation device. Engraved on it were nine magic swords.
It was a secret scroll of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect that Demonic Cultivators had been searching for all this time.
The nine magic swords on it were all of different shapes and sizes.
Holding the documentation device in her hand, Judith then channeled her spiritual energy into it. Immediately, it began to shimmer with spiritual light.
At the same time, a translucent greatsword gradually took shape behind her.
The nine magic swords on the documentation
device began glowing before they started quivering lightly. On the heels of that, they detached and drifted to her front.
The nine swords reverberated with the greatsword behind her, validating each other.
As the nine magic swords appeared, Judith paled, sweat pouring down her face like a faucet.
In no time, the nine magic swords kept transforming to eventually conjure countless sword shadows. It became impossible to distinguish between illusion and reality.
With a forceful swing, Judith sent countless sword shadows flying toward the incoming wind blades. Behind her, the greatsword that had appeared shook wildly as if it could no longer contain itself and soared into the sky.
Booming sounds rang out incessantly as the wind blades were continually detonated.
The countless sword shadows momentarily safeguarded the area around Judith and Jared, successfully obliterating all the wind blades.
“The secret scroll of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect has been utilized!”
Above the sea, Skylar gazed intently at the Dead Sea, a smirk curving his lips.
Beside him, a dozen or so Demonic Cultivators stared in awe at the turbulent waters of the Dead Sea, their admiration for Skylar intensifying further.
“Follow me in. We are going to eliminate Judith and seize the secret scroll of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect. As for Jared, leave him to me. I’ll make sure he meets a tragic end!” Skylar declared with murder radiating off him, his eyes narrowed slightly.
“Mr. Norton, we’re likely unable to enter the Dead Sea,” Abel interjected somewhat awkwardly.
“Don’t worry. With me here, you’ll all be able to get in!”
After Skylar had said that, he casually waved his hand. A ball of red flame began dancing around them all, soon forming a barrier around each of them.
From a distance, they appeared as if ablaze.
“Mr. Norton, is it possible to spare Jared’s life
or at least leave his body intact? After all, he’s worth a hundred-year offering,” a Demonic Cultivator asked cautiously.
Skylar glared at the man, effectively silencing him.
“Heed my words. No one is to lay a finger on Jared. I must be the one to end him. After all this time, it’s about time I settled the score with him!”
He was resolved to kill Jared with his own hands to avenge his father’s death.
Having followed the latter there from the mundane world to the Ethereal Realm, he was the only one who understood the hardships he had suffered in the process.
