Chapter 960: Chapter 960 You little swindler, you will come to no good end!

"You despicable brat, I should have killed you earlier..."

The man looked at Ezekiel Roth, whose figure was twisting and roaring in despair within the Soul Refining Bead, and cracked a cold smile, "Indeed, since I am not as strong as you, why didn’t you kill me and just take the Myriad Spirit Blood Array?"

"One last thing to tell you, I actually have no connection with the Thousand Evil Sect, oh, but that’s not entirely true. I have received the Ancient Inheritance from the Thousand Evil Sect; to be precise, I don’t know anyone from the current Thousand Evil Sect, so even if you had killed me, no one would have bothered you."

"Unfortunately, you were fooled by me, not daring to touch me, and obediently swearing the Oath of the Heart Demon and signing a contract with me. Since you have failed and have no value, just disappear completely."

Ezekiel Roth cursed in despair, "Go to hell, you little scammer, I curse you to a dreadful demise..."

Ezekiel Roth’s voice completely vanished, and the red sphere continued to whirl, like a spinning millstone.

After a long while, the red vortex disappeared, and a stream of white smoke-like Spiritual Energy diffused out, resembling the delicate smoke of sandalwood, continuously entering the man’s mouth.

The man’s eyes became obsessed and crazed, extremely excited, as if a drug addict high on narcotics.

About ten breaths later, the Soul Refining Bead returned to being transparent, as if nothing had happened.

The man deeply inhaled the last bit of white smoke, tilting his head back, and let out a low, mad laugh.

"The Primordial Spirit of a Hollow Void Realm master is truly different, so pure, enough to take me up a level. This world of devouring others is indeed the most direct and effective, haha..."

The man’s laughter sounded like a lament and yet like a howl, giving off an extremely neurotic vibe.

Turning his head towards the distance, the man murmured softly, "Worthy of being someone favored by the Emperor Seal, to survive even this. The combat power of the Path of the Sword Bone is terrifying indeed. Good thing I didn’t strike directly."

"Never mind, the path of cultivation is long, there’s plenty of time, no need to rush this moment. It’s time to meet the Thousand Evil Sect. Since I’ve inherited the Ancient Inheritance, do I count as one of their ancient ancestors?"

The man soared into the sky, his figure swiftly disappearing.

...

"Wait for me a minute, I’m going to take a bath first."

In the valley, Carson Flores poured the Spiritual Spring water he obtained from Harmony Hollow into a tub and then fully immersed himself into it.

Although the Spiritual Spring was not as potent as the Life Essence Pearl, it still possessed excellent healing capabilities.

Soaking in the Spiritual Spring, the bloody wounds on Carson Flores quickly started healing, and fresh flesh gradually grew out where there were only exposed bones.

After soaking for half a day, all spiritual power in the Spiritual Spring was absorbed by Carson Flores, significantly improving his injuries, no longer appearing as tragic as before.

"What kind of medicinal liquid is this? The effect is quite good."

"It’s the Spiritual Spring from Harmony Hollow."

Carson Flores replied, "It’s also the antidote to the strange poisons of Harmony Hollow. I sold most of it before but still have some left."

Killian Jaramillo smiled with pursed lips, "Barbarian Wilderness Realm’s Six Great Forbidden Lands, you’ve entered two of them and came out safely each time. Your skills and luck are truly extraordinary."

"It’s mostly good luck,"

Carson Flores laughed, "The Three Devil Sect has been wiped out, avenging the 400,000 innocent souls of Kongyuan City. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the mastermind behind it all."

Killian Jaramillo spoke gravely, "He possesses the Myriad Spirit Blood Array but didn’t collect the Blood Beads himself; there must be a reason behind this...."

Carson Flores responded, "Not strong enough?"

Molly Greer had said that launching the Myriad Spirit Blood Array required some time, during which one would inevitably face retaliation from the city’s defenders.

City Lords, at least at the Divinity Transformation Stage, possessed strong retaliatory capabilities; this person likely did not dare to act alone, probably unable to strike and kill a City Lord of the Divinity Transformation Stage or defend against the counterattacks from such powerful cultivators.

Killian Jaramillo nodded, "I think that’s the reason, based on what you’ve said. This person was likely one of the adventurers who initially entered the True Dragon Secret Realm, not very powerful, and probably a disciple of a sect in Misrds State since he mentioned those three sects are all located there."

"With the Three Devil Sect annihilated, he’s lost his source for the Myriad Spirit Blood Pearls. Such a person has essentially stepped onto a demonic path and he certainly won’t stop here but will try to collaborate with other sects, or start targeting weak villages himself."

"Regardless, as long as he’s alive, he will reveal himself again. His identity can be hidden temporarily, but cannot be completely concealed."

Killian Jaramillo looked at Carson Flores, who was frowning, and guessed his worries, comforting, "The Path of Refinement existed in ancient times, never fully exterminated. Even the ancient powers couldn’t eradicate it completely, how could we truly eradicate them?"

"You’ve already wiped out the Three Devil Sect, which somewhat appeases the spirits of Kongyuan City’s innocent. Plus, you’ve risked your own life; you’ve done your best, with a clear conscience, so don’t feel down about not catching the mastermind behind it all..."
