“Old Mr. Giuvali, your aura looks good to me. You’ll probably be fine,” said Tamazi who had comeforward. While speaking, he snuck a glance at Jared.
His goal for interrupting was to not only ingratiate himself with Misho but also humiliate Jared.Nevertheless, Jared couldn’t be bothered, while Misho merely responded with a silent nod, for he wasreluctant to let others know that he was injured.
Even though Jared had extracted the lethal intent in his body, Misho wanted to keep secret the fact thathe was wounded by a demon.
“Mount Crimson is dangerous, so stay behind me and don’t wander off alone,” Hamish instructedeveryone loudly.
Meanwhile, Rostom said to Kiara, “Don’t be afraid Kiara. I’ll protect you.”
However, Kiara rolled her eyes at him and paid him no heed. With that, they group began their journeydeep into the mountains.
Even though the path was winding and treacherous, impassible by ordinary men, they had no problemstraversing it since they were all cultivators.
Along the journey, they encountered a few demon beasts who weren’t particularly strong. Beforeanyone reacted, Rostom made quick work of them in an attempt to demonstrate his prowess.novelbin
As for Jared, he positioned himself at the back of the party, scanning his surroundings with his spiritualsense.
A few hours later, the group arrived deep in the mountains. From the looks of it, Hamish seemedfamiliar with the area, seemingly capable of finding hidden paths just when everyone thought they hadreached a dead end.
“There wasn’t a path here in the beginning. It was formed from my guiding of numerous groups alongthis way. Even though the path is narrow and winding, we’ll be able to avoid the majority of the demonbeasts or any ambushes,” Hamish explained to the party.
No one commented on his words. Since they had chosen to follow Hamish, they had no choice but totrust him.
After walking for a while, they arrived at a slope. The place looked tidy as if it had been renovated bysomeone.
“All right, we’ll camp here for the night. I’ve remodeled this place and continue to do so every time Istop here. Mount Crimson is huge after all, and we can’t cross it in one go.”
Once he had spoken, Hamish found a place to sit down. Everyone else proceeded to do the same andget some rest; all except Jared.
Wanting to explore the surroundings, he walked into the forest nearby.
“What are you doing?” Hamish asked Jared at once.
“I want to take a look around,” the latter replied.
“Don’t stray. There’s more to this place than meets the eye. It might not look dangerous, but that’sbecause I’ve been leading the way. If you wander off on your own, you’ll be attacked by demon beasts.On top of that, poison veils might appear anytime here. Once they do there’s no escape. You’ll loseyour sanity and go berserk. Countless cultivators, poisoned by this malevolent force, would recklesslyassault their surroundings until they perished from exhaustion. You had better just stay put,” Hamishwarned Jared.
“Mr. Chevalier, your concerns are unwarranted. Have you forgotten that he is an alchemist? The poisonveil is no threat to him at all. Besides, I have got a few detoxifying pills here which we can use toneutralize its effects.”
As Tamazi spoke, he produced some pills and distributed them to everyone except Jared.
“That’s all the detoxifying pills I have, but since you’re such a skilled alchemist, I’m sure you don’t needmy pills, do you?” Tamazi remarked with a touch of sarcasm as he directed a gaze at Jared.
