Chapter 2474 Laying Their Cards On The Table
Subsequently, the armored beast brought Jared back.
By then, Flaxseed and Hammerhead had almost recovered.
Jared took out the refined ore essences and fed them to the other few armored beasts. They ate their fill, all very
much grateful to him.
“Master Hammerhead, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Fire Incineration Sect to rescue your sect leader with my
current capabilities. Regardless, please rest assured that I'll figure out a way to do so after settling everything in the
mundane world,” Jared vowed.
Hammerhead gave a bob of his head.
“I trust you. Even if you can't rescue our sect leader, I should still thank you. Right now, I've got a smithing
fragment. These few armored beasts are still alive as well. Therefore, I can slowly restore Divine Smithing Sect. In
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtless than ten years, we'll definitely be able to attain glory once again. At that time, I'll make you a divine weapon,”
he gushed gratefully.
He was eternally thankful that the young man did not covet the smithing fragment. If anyone else had gotten their
hands on it, they would have undoubtedly kept it for themselves.
After bidding the few armored beasts farewell, Jared and the others went back to Divine Smithing Sect.
“Can you still open the portal between Ethereal Realm and the mundane world?” Hammerhead asked.
“I'll try. I don't have that much confidence about it now either.”
Jared had expended considerable spiritual energy in smithing and refining the spirit ores. Hence, he was uncertain
whether he could open the portal to the mundane world and planned to try it.
“I think you should stay here and only return when your capabilities have elevated, Jared. When that happens, it'll
be far easier for you to open the portal. Furthermore, you've got a gold apatite. It can only unleash its maximum
energy if you absorb it in Ethereal Realm. If you take it to the mundane world, its energy might be greatly reduced
due to the suppression of the laws of nature,” Hammerhead proposed.
Jared was startled for a moment. In slight embarrassment, he queried, “You... You know I've got a gold apatite with
me, Master Hammerhead?”
“Of course, I know. A gold apatite's aura is unique, so I've long since sensed it. But it's fine that the armored beasts
gifted you a gold apatite since you've done Divine Smithing Sect a great favor!” Hammerhead replied with a
chuckle.
“What is a gold apatite, Jared? Let me have a look at it!” Flaxseed entreated in utter curiosity.
At that, Jared could only take the gold apatite out. Taking it from him, Flaxseed studied it meticulously, his eyes
brimming with envy.
“In this case, I'll absorb this gold apatite here before going back to the mundane world.”
Jared decided to absorb the energy from the gold apatite in Ethereal Realm and improve his cultivation level before
returning to the mundane world.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe found a quiet place and started absorbing the energy within the gold apatite.
While he was doing so, Flaxseed and the sword spirit, Zelda, acted as his guardians.
Meanwhile, Hammerhead left and began persuading the nearby residents to recruit disciples for Divine Smithing
Sect.
He alone was insufficient to rebuild the sect and restore it to its former glory. Thus, he needed to recruit disciples
for Divine Smithing Sect.
As Jared was cultivating in Ethereal Realm, the atmosphere in Evil Heart Sect's secret realm seemed somewhat
strange.
Six purple-robed emissaries were gathered together. At that instant, they removed the masks from their faces.
Although they had already surmised each other's identities, they were still slightly shocked when the masks came
off.
After all, they were sect leaders in the Eight Major Secret Realms and were well acquainted with each other.
It was just that none of them knew the others' identity of being a fellow purple-robed emissary of the Evil Heart
Sect.
With the masks divested then, it was equivalent to them laying their cards on the table.
