Chapter 2182 Emergence Of The Ancient Ruins
Jared took a deep breath before disclosing how he had excavated a tunnel into the mountains from thespring.
Skyler's eyes turned as wide as saucers when she heard Jared was the one behind everything and gotburied underneath the rubble.
Never in her wildest dreams did she expect Jared to be capable of doing this!
Matthew felt a headache coming on and a sense of helplessness. Jared was likely the only one toconceive the idea of digging through the Kazillion Mountains alone.
The Spring of Regeneration did not solely belong to Luminous Sect, as a total of nine sects shared ittogether. Matthew was at a loss as to how to explain to the other eight sects that Jared had destroyedthe spring.
Jared asked, “Mr. Campbell, was there a sect that used to reside near the Spring of Regeneration inthe past? Otherwise, why would there be a Guardian Rock?”
Matthew bobbed his head. “Many years ago, there was a Narcissus Palace located in that area.However, it vanished hundreds of years ago, and no one knows exactly how. Many people tried to findthe ruins of Narcissus Palace, but they were unsuccessful. Over time, people forgot about it, and if theSpring of Regeneration hadn't emerged, no one would have ventured to that location.”
“Narcissus Palace?” Jared frowned. “Mr. Campbell, is there a possibility that the ancient ruins ofNarcissus Palace are within the mountain range?”
“That is a possibility,” Matthew replied. “In the past, someone had the same idea, but no one dared todestroy the mountain to enter it. It would have an impact on the Spring of Regeneration. Even if the
ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace were found, no one would be able to enter. Legend has it that theleader of Narcissus Palace was known for eating human flesh in a gruesome manner. The entire placewas filled with demonic aura, so the ruins would be extremely dangerous.”
Hearing that, Jared immediately recalled the crimson-red stones that gave off a lethal intent. There wasa huge possibility that the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace were within the mountain range.
It was highly likely that the spring water had flowed past the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace andgained its regenerative powers since ordinary spring water didn't possess such properties.
“Master? Master!” Archer ran in, looking anxious.
Matthew's face darkened at the sight of him. “What happened?”novelbin
“An enormous cave has emerged above the Kazillion Mountains, attracting numerous martial artists toventure there. It seems to be linked to the recent earthquake. Several sects have sent us messages,requesting to convene and discuss the situation regarding the Spring of Regeneration,” Archerreported.
Matthew let out a soft sigh. “I guess there's no escaping the inevitable. I can't hide it any longer.”
Jared offered, “Mr. Campbell, I was the one who did that. Let me accompany you to the meeting to ownup to what I did.”
He didn't want to make things difficult for Matthew.
“Jared, if you come with me, you won't be able to leave the place alive. Don't worry, I have a plan,”Matthew assured him with a smile. Turning to Archer and Skyler, he instructed, “After I leave, you twostay in the sect. No one is allowed to venture up the mountains, understand? The mountain range is
perilous, and there could be many unknown dangers. Even if the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palacehave surfaced, it will only lead to more fatalities.”
Matthew knew how dangerous the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace were, so he didn't want hisdisciples to risk their lives.
“Got it!” Skyler and Archer nodded.
However, Jared appeared hesitant as he spoke up. “Mr. Campbell, I would like to go up the mountains.There might be something in the ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace that could help save my friends.”
“Jared, if you wish to head up the mountains, make sure Skyler accompanies you. She knows the areawell, but please be cautious. The ancient ruins of Narcissus Palace are exceedingly treacherous,”Matthew cautioned.
“Don't worry, Mr. Campbell. I know what I'm doing,” Jared promised.
Despite Jared's promise, Matthew remained worried. After all, Jared had caused trouble the momenthe was given permission to use the Spring of Regeneration.
Nevertheless, he said nothing and turned to leave.
