“Why is that so?” Jared asked, utterly baffled.
“If you challenge now, you’ll be facing at his strongest. Wait until others have challenged him, then it’ll be much easier for you!” Wybert responded.
Jared smiled. No matter how challenging the first level was, with his strength, could easily handle it.
“Buddy, you need not laugh. Do you think our world is barren, devoid of any experts, and you can win effortlessly?” Wybert asked.
Jared nodded, not denying it.
“You’re mistaken. The one you’re challenging isn’t from our world, but someone who only arrived here not too long ago. When this person arrived, we knew that a catastrophe was about to unfold. Perhaps this could be our last time. It seems like our world is on the brink of destruction.” Wybert gazed at the barren wasteland, expressing his feelings with a heavy sigh.
“How so?” Jared was taken aback.
“It’s clear that our world has been chosen to be the proving ground. Once the trial is over, our mission will be accomplished, and there will be no further need for this world to exist. In the eyes of those great powers, our world is nothing more than a speck of dust…”
After Wybert finished speaking, surprisingly, tears were streaming down his face.
Jared fell silent, unsure of how to comfort the elderly man.
“Enemy attack!” Suddenly, a loud shout rang out, followed by the entire town’s inhabitants leaping into the air in panic.
Some women and children remained in the small town, hiding within their homes.
Meanwhile, in the distance, two dark specks were rapidly approaching and soon they hovered over the small town.
Both cultivators were Ultimate Realm Level Eight In their cultivation. However, in the eyes of the cultivators from these small towns, these two individuals were unsurpassable powerhouses.
“D*mn! This godforsaken place has not a single resource left. Finally, I’ve found a town with some signs of life!”
“It’s a good opportunity for us to look around and see if we can find anything valuable!”
After their conversation, the two headed straight for the small town.
Upon seeing the situation, numerous cultivators in the small town promptly intervened. Yet, the other party seemed to turn a blind eye.
One of them casually gestured, and a terrifying aura descended from the heavens.
Cultivators within the small town were falling one after another, not a single person was able to stop it.
The disparity in strength was just too vast.
The two of them landed in the middle of the small town. One of them scoffed coldly. “Hand over all your valuables, and we might just spare your lives!”
Another person also hastily chimed in, “Send over a few beauties for us, so we can have a good time!”
In the small town, all the cultivators glared at the two individuals. However, not a single one dared to utter a word.
“What’s your deal, you two? You think it’s cool to bully the weak?” At that time, Jared was slowly following Wybert to the street at the center of the small town.
“Who the hell dares to talk about us brothers like that?” One person was cursing vehemently, but when they turned around, they saw Jared.
When these two individuals caught sight of Jared, their faces turned pale with shock.
In the eyes of the cultivators from these small towns, they were the ultimate powerhouses. However, in Jared’s perspective, they were merely insignificant ants.
The two of them knew Jared and were well aware of his true strength. Back when they were in Doveston, amidst a crowd of people, they had personally witnessed Jared killing Nikodem and the great elder of Thorne Sect.
“Mr… Mr. Chance. We didn’t expect to see you here!”
The two cultivators were trembling with fear.
“You two are simply seeking experience and trying to pass through. There’s no need to harm others. The resources these people possess are of no use to you anymore. Get lost, and stop bullying the weak!” Jared waved his hand and spoke.
The two cultivators nodded repeatedly and than without looking back, they took off running.
Upon witnessing this spectacle, the many cultivators of the small town all knelt in reverence to Jared.
Wybert was taken aback. He hadn’t expected Jared to be so formidable. Even those who were considered as calamity feared Jared.
“Dear fellow cultivator, we beg you to save our lives!” Wybert also fell to his knees.
