Gilbert nodded and leaped into the air.
At that moment, Joel and Danny were on the verge of breaking down, and they were holding on for dear
lives.
Right then, Gilbert appeared, threw a few casual punches, and killed all the men in black just like that.
Danny was extremely grateful to Gilbert after seeing the latter kill all the men in black without breaking a
sweat.
“Thank you! Thank you for helping us!” Danny uttered gratefully.
However, Joel remained quiet, and he looked utterly embarrassed. Evidently, he was too ashamed to
speak.
novelbin“It was an order from Mr. Chance. Otherwise, I wouldn't have helped you guys.” With that, Gilbert turned
around and walked toward Jared.
From the beginning, Gilbert had been unhappy with Joel's method of doing things.
Danny then brought Joel with him toward Jared. Since they were both injured, they wouldn't be able to
make it far if they didn't follow Jared and his companions.
“Thank you for your help, Mr. Chance. We... We...” Danny wanted to express his gratitude toward Jared,
but he didn't know what else to say.
After all, everyone was well aware of the way Flaming Sect treated Jared and the rest.
Meanwhile, Joel was still hanging his head wordlessly in shame.“I have a question for you. Does Flaming Sect like to build altars that are made of crystals?” Jared asked
Danny.
Danny looked confused. Although he knew some things about Flaming Sect, his knowledge was limited.
After all, Flaming Sect is secretive. I wouldn't know anything that they don't allow me to know!
Joel, on the other hand, who had been keeping his head lowered all this while, suddenly lifted his head in
disbelief when he heard about altars made of crystals.
He sounded horrified when he voiced, “Altars made of crystals? Could it be that they're trying to summon
demons?”
“Summoning demons? What's going on? Be more specific, will you?” Jared asked.
Joel took a deep breath and answered, “There's a legend in Flaming Sect. Whoever builds an altar made
of crystals would be able to summon the demons from underground. The person would also need a
scepter with spiritual power. As soon as a person has summoned the demons, the demons would then
give the summoner their powers. In other words, the summoner would become a new demon himself
and rule hell. By then, the whole world will probably be in turmoil.”
As Joel was explained, his body trembled violently as if he was talking about something horrifying.
“Summoning demons? As if that's real! I bet they're just using an arcane array to absorb the spirits
underground. I suppose that altar is an arcane array, and the scepter is a switch to activate the arcane
array! There are no such things as demons! All they're about to summon is nothing more than spirits and
negative energy from the underground,” Flaxseed uttered disdainfully.
“Demons do exist! You guys are going to suffer the consequences if you don't believe it!” said Joel, firmly
believing in the possibility that altars could summon demons.“That's enough. We'll find out if that's true after checking it out. Since we know they've already built an
altar, you'll be able to track them down, right?” Jared asked Joel.
Joel nodded and started chanting. Suddenly, the bronze handbell in his hand started shaking on its own.
The bronze handbell would shake every time they walked a certain distance. Joel would then choose the
direction of travel according to the frequency of the shaking bronze handbell.
Soon, they were about to arrive on the peak of the mountain.
Meanwhile, in the ancient ruins, Alex was wearing an elated expression as he looked at the tall altar.
At that moment, he was holding a scepter inlaid with gemstones in one hand and a crystal in the other.
All that was left to do to complete the construction of the altar was to place the crystal in his hand on the
altar.
