“Mr. Chance, these people must have been taken by Blood Bone Sect to use for cultivation. But they’re all trapped in the arcane array. We’re at our wit’s end,” Trystan hastily explained at the sight of Jared.
Jared gave a nod. Then, he swept his gaze over the arcane array. It contained a cold and sinister aura that came from all directions. The cultivators within all suffered from its pervasion.
It seems that Blood Bone Sect didn’t only suck on blood and gnaw on bones but also had these cultivators live for a period with such a chilling and sinister aura. Once they’re filled with it, using them for cultivation would yield twice the efficacy! But to these cultivators, this method is beyond brutal!
“This arcane array is to infuse cultivators with lethal intent. Those of Blood Bone Sect are truly ruthless,” Jared divulged, his brows furrowed.
“They went too far! If our master were looking down from the heavens, he would despise them to the core for stooping so low just for the sake of cultivating!”
Hearing that, Trystan was so furious that veins popped up on his forehead.
Although Soul Demon Sect was also a Demonic Cultivation sect, they had never committed any nefarious acts. Even other Demonic Cultivation sects were nothing compared with Blood Bone Sect.
Blood Bone Clan wasn’t even content with sucking blood and gnawing on bones, going as far as to place cultivators in an environment filled with lethal intent, forcing them to live in constant pain and fear every single day.
Such torment could drive one to the brink of a breakdown and even madness, but that was precisely the conditions Blood Bone Sect exploited.
The more petrified and crazed a cultivator, the more he or she benefitted their cultivation.
“It was bad enough that those b*stards from Blood Bone Sect killed to cultivate, but they even used such a wicked method! This is a whole mountain of skeletal remains! Who knows how many cultivators died in such terror and pain? Simply killing them was far too merciful. They should have suffered and breathed their last in agony!” Nieva snarled, seething with rage.
Meanwhile, Trystan wore an expression of self- reproach, for all those atrocities were committed by his fellow apprentices. Never had he imagined that the fellow apprentices whom he had trained with for many years would all turn out to be demons.
“Mr. Chance, let’s free these people first. No matter what, it’s only right for Soul Demon Sect to aid in their recovery when they had been tortured to such a state by Blood Bone Sect!”
Trystan wished to aid the cultivators in their recovery to ease his own conscience.
Jared gave a nod. Then, he casually unleashed a few bursts of spiritual energy, instantly breaking the arcane array.
It wasn’t a high-level arcane array, but to those unfamiliar with array craft, breaking it would be extremely challenging.
Moreover, those present weren’t particularly powerful. The strongest among them was only at the second or third level of Tribulator.
As the arcane array was broken, the lethal intent within promptly dissipated. The look in the eyes of the cultivators also gradually transitioned from fear to calmness.
Upon realizing that Jared and the others weren’t members of Blood Bone Sect but were there to save them, the group of cultivators was overcome with joy. They fell to their knees, tears streaming down their faces.
Initially, they thought they were done for. But right then, they had been rescued. Their joy of having a newfound lease on life was beyond words.
That was particularly true when they had been watching as the cultivators around them were taken away one by one each day. Hearing their agonizing screams and sensing the surrounding lethal intent was an excruciating torment. At times, it was even more terrifying than death itself.
The feeling of living a life worse than death was the most torturous of all.
“My fellow cultivators, Blood Bone Sect has been completely eradicated. You all are weak at the moment, so I will arrange for someone to help aid your recovery,” Trystan said with a deep sense of guilt while looking at them.
Upon hearing that, everyone felt incredibly grateful to him. When they learned about the annihilation of Blood Bone Sect, especially, they were overjoyed. They fell to their knees and prostrated themselves once again.
