Jared could tell at a glance those pearls were the beast cores from within those cultivators.
Those cultivators were all from the beast race.
Even though they could transform into human form, they remained members of the beast race, still carrying the beast core within them.
Beast cores from the beast race were akin to the draconic essence of the Draconians.
The beast cores hovered in mid-air, a stream of dark energy swirling between them as if brewing something ominous.
“As expected of the beast general’s son. He does have some skills.” Jared’s gaze turned solemn when he saw that.
Quickly, the world around began to chill as a black mist filled the air, obscuring the beast cores it enveloped, their colors no longer discernible.
“Attack!” Niel exclaimed.
The group acted at once, infusing a substantial amount of spiritual energy into the beast cores. Subsequently, a burst of multicolored light dispelled the black energy.
The moment the black energy was shattered, those beams of light astonishingly transformed into fierce beasts.
The beasts came in all shapes and sizes, some of which Jared had never even seen before.
Those fierce beasts appeared to be the main bodies of the few cultivators present.
After the appearance of those ferocious beasts, the black energy astonishingly transformed into a massive net, ensnaring Jared within it.
At that moment, Jared was confronted with the onslaught of those wild beasts and had no means to escape or evade them. The massive black web surrounding him severely limited his room for maneuver.
“Brat, we’ve used up all our beast cores. Even though using them once would cost us a hundred years of cultivation, you’ve pushed me into a corner today. I have no other choice.” With a fierce gaze, Niel stared intently at Jared, his voice coldly resonating.
“It seems like you’ve truly pulled out all the stops. However, having offered up your beast cores, what will happen if I take them all? Won’t you be left without any, reduced to ordinary people incapable of cultivation?” Jared looked at Niel’s fierce demeanor and responded with a slight smile.
“In your dreams. Do you think you can just take our beast core? Try eliminating our spirit beast form first,” Niel scoffed coldly.
He couldn’t believe that Jared still had the audacity to take his beast core under such circumstances.
“Your spirit beast form is nothing.” After Jared finished speaking, the draconic essence on his chest flickered. Accompanied by bursts of the Power of Dragons, the faint figure of the Golden Dragon materialized behind him.
The Golden Dragon became increasingly distinct as the Power of Dragons grew stronger.
“What… What is this?” Upon seeing the appearance of the Golden Dragon, Niel was completely dumbfounded.
“A Golden Dragon? Could he be a Draconian?” someone exclaimed in surprise.
“That’s impossible. He’s clearly a Demonic Cultivator. There’s no way he’s a Draconian, much less capable of summoning an actual Golden Dragon. It must be an illusion. We shouldn’t believe it.” Niel couldn’t believe that Jared was a Draconian.
The beast race had an innate fear and reverence toward the Draconians.
Upon seeing a Golden Dragon materialize behind Jared and detecting the Power of Dragons permeating the air, Niel and the others were completely thrown into a state of panic.
However, Niel refused to believe Jared was a Draconian of the Golden Dragon clan.
He was convinced that Jared must have used some kind of trickery.
Just as Niel and his companions commanded their spirit beast forms to attack Jared, astonishingly, each and every one of those spirit beast forms backed down.
They weren’t listening to any commands at all, each of them trembling in fear.
When the Golden Dragon roared, the spirit beast forms all turned tail and ran, eventually returning to the beast core, disappearing without a trace.
Even the colossal web composed of black energy shattered instantly at the sound of the dragon’s roar.
In the end, only the beast cores were left eerily floating in mid-air.
Niel and his companions were completely flabbergasted.
Niel claimed Jared was merely using an illusion, but an illusion couldn’t have possibly scared the spirit beast forms away. As such, he was the most bewildered.
