Chapter 2802 Pessimistic
It was Vasily, who was saved by Jared at the arena.
After spotting Jared, Vasily promptly kneeled before him. “Please accept my gratitude for saving me,my hero!”
Jared was stunned, and he gently lifted Vasily. “It was nothing, my good man. You don't need tothank me for saving your life like this.”
“I'm from the far north, my hero. There, the resources are scarce, and the people are poor. That'swhy I don't have anything valuable on me to thank you for. If you don't mind, please accept thisemerald badge I have in my possession.” Vasily removed a chipped emerald badge from his pocketand handed it to Jared.
Jared shook his head and rejected hastily, “As I've said, you don't need to thank me. Saving youwas no big deal. I can't accept this.”
Just as Jared's finger touched Vasily's emerald badge, a cold sensation jolted through his body.
Shock filled his eyes.
After all, within Jared's body lay the demonic fire, which prevented even Jerison's ice from freezinghim.
That was why Jared was taken aback that the chipped emerald badge before him possessed suchgreat power.
Upon sensing Jared's confusion, Vasily explained, “This emerald badge is a key to unlock theArchaic Body cultivators' treasure. In the past, when Archaic Body cultivators were a much moreformidable force, our people buried a treasure chest in the far north. Plenty of valuable items werekept inside. After that, our people were embroiled in a violent affair. Many were slaughtered, and
some were stripped of their skills and had to re-cultivate their spiritual energy. As such, the locationof the treasure chest became a mystery. Even now, no one has discovered the whereabouts of thetreasure chest. After so many generations, the tale of the treasure has become a myth, and theemerald badge key has been damaged. Despite that, the emerald badge is still the most valuableartifact among our people.”
“How can you hand such an important thing to me?” Jared was astounded.
Although he had saved Vasily's life, he couldn't accept such a significant item as a gift. After all, if hefound the treasure chest, he could seize everything that was inside.
“You may not know about this, but we Archaic Body cultivators are on the verge of extinction. It'spossible we'll be gone long before we can even locate the treasure. We're a group of people whofocus on utilizing inner energy to unleash techniques. It's extremely difficult, which is why very fewArchaic Body cultivators are left. This emerald badge is practically useless to me and my people. Infact, it'll only attract danger to me. The Tall family has been forcing us Archaic Body cultivators topledge our loyalty to them solely to obtain this emerald badge! Now, I'm giving this emerald badgeto you. If you're lucky, you may stumble upon the ancient treasure. I bet our Archaic BodyCultivation techniques are hidden inside. If you can preserve those techniques, perhaps ArchaicBody cultivators will reemerge in this world one day.” Tears welled up in Vasily's eyes as he spoke ina melancholic tone.
After all, his people, the Archaic Body cultivators, were about to perish completely, lost forever tohistory. It was a cruel reality for all Archaic Body cultivators.
“No need to be so pessimistic, my good man. The legacy of Archaic Body cultivators will live on.You don't have to worry about that.” Jared really wanted to tell Vasily that martial arts were still aliveand well in the mundane world.
Not only that, there were many Martial Arts Warriors.
However, Jared was uncertain if those Martial Arts Warriors would ultimately choose the path ofArchaic Body Cultivation.novelbin
