Skylar produced a small cauldron and, with a toss, it unleashed a powerful suction, rapidly drawing in Jared’s flames.
The fire dragons dissipated instantly as the flames were swallowed up by the cauldron.
Seeing the magical item Skylar had pulled out, Jared frowned. Is this thing designed to counter internal flame aura?
Without the fire dragons, only the lightning and sword energy remained, making it significantly easier for the dozen or so Demonic Cultivators to defend against the assault.
Skylar retrieved the cauldron, but instead of attacking Jared, he narrowed his gaze and dove straight toward the seabed.
His sudden dive into the water left both Jared and the Demonic Cultivators stunned.
Jared, in particular, was bewildered. He hadn’t expected Skylar to ignore an opportunity to strike, only to rush into the ocean.
Earlier, Skylar had stayed above while the Demonic Cultivators entered the sea.
Now, with everyone back on the surface, Skylar alone headed into the depths.
His unexpected move left Jared momentarily confused.
As Skylar entered the Dead Sea, black energy enveloped him, and he sped toward the seafloor.
He intended to figure out if Jared had set any traps below.
With Jared now occupied above, fighting the Demonic Cultivators, Skylar seized the opportunity to investigate the seabed.
Jared shook off his confusion and prepared to follow Skylar.
This sudden dive meant Skylar was definitely up to something.
However, the Demonic Cultivators seized their chance, swarming Jared and tangling him up to prevent his pursuit.
Meanwhile, Skylar reached the seabed and surveyed the surrounding mountains, a nagging sense of dread gnawing at him.
Though he didn’t spot the Demon Annihilation Formation, he didn’t expect Jared would have time to set up something so grand here.
This vast area seemed impossible for one person to set up a formation so quickly.
“Since I don’t know what kind of trap it is, I might as well give it a shot…” Skylar muttered, his face turning steely as black energy radiated
outward.
Just as the black aura spread, the surrounding mountains suddenly lit up with intricate array runes.
The Demon Annihilation Formation had activated. Surrounded by glowing symbols, Skylar’s face filled with shock. He had never encountered a formation of this scale before.
He didn’t believe that Jared had set up this formation in such a short time. He was certain that this guy must have stumbled upon this place and discovered the existence of this formation!
Perhaps this place had once been a sect stronghold.
Not wasting another second, Skylar launched himself from the seabed like a cannonball, unwilling to fight against such a formidable formation.
As he burst above the surface, he shouted, “Everyone fall back. Don’t get entangled any further!”
Although Skylar didn’t yet know the formation’s power, he immediately ordered a retreat.
A formation of this magnitude would certainly unleash a formidable force if triggered.
The Demonic Cultivators, still unsure of what was happening, looked at Skylar in confusion. They had no idea what he had seen down there to make him so panicked.
They had no idea what he had seen down there to make him so panicked.
While the group of Demonic Cultivators was still puzzled, suddenly, a resonating hum filled the air!
Before everyone’s eyes, radiant beams of light extended across dozens of miles, forming a seamless screen that enclosed the entire area.
“W-what’s happening?” one of the Demonic Cultivators gasped, sending out bursts of spiritual energy, only to have them bounce back from the glowing barrier.
Skylar’s lips twitched at the sight. Despite his caution, Jared had trapped him in the end.
He had never imagined this place would hold a formation of such colossal scale.
