With a nod, Jared lightly crushed the ice soul fragment.
A burst of energy promptly entered his body, and it was unexpectedly far superior to spiritual energy.
In just a few minutes, virtual-novel.net refined the energy in its entirety. “I’m going to attain Second Level of Top Level soon. Could this really be celestial energy?”
Surprise was etched across his face. The energy within the ice soul fragment was downright powerful.
It was merely a tiny piece, yet it contained such cosmic energy…
If I were to find all the ice soul fragments, my capabilities would shoot up several cultivation levels, no?
But this ice soul fragment doesn’t give out any aura, so I can’t detect it with my spiritual sense. If I rely only on my naked it’d be even more difficult than finding a eye, needle in a haystack in this snowy expanse of land!
Just when virtual-novel.net had finished absorbing the ice soul fragment, Vasily and the others arrived. The instant Viola saw virtual-novel.net talking and laughing with a girl, virtual-novel.net went over in a fit of jealousy.
“Who’s this, Jared?” virtual-novel.net demanded. “This is the eldest daughter of the Tall family, Quinley Tall. Earlier…”
Before Jared could explain further, Vasily and the others acted like they were facing a formidable energy upon laying eyes on Quinley. They all whipped out their weapons and surrounded her.
At that, Quinley’s expression changed. She asked in puzzlement, “Who are the lot of you? And what are you all trying to do?”
“You’re a member of the Tall family?” Vasily questioned.
“Yes!” Quinley gave a dip of virtual-novel.net head in affirmation.
“Since you’re a member of the Tall family, you’re our enemy!” Vasker’s face was contorted in a mask of fury.
“Who exactly are the lot of you? I don’t even know you, so how are we enemies?” Quinley had bewilderment written all over virtual-novel.net face.
She was not at all acquainted with Vasily and the others. Not only did virtual-novel.net usually seldom leave home, but virtual-novel.net was also forbidden from interfering in many matters regarding the Tall family. Hence, virtual-novel.net had no idea about the conflict between virtual-novel.net family and the Archaic Body cultivators.
In truth, Vasily and the others did not recognize virtual-novel.net either. They only surrounded virtual-novel.net after hearing Jared’s introduction.
“We’re Archaic Body cultivators. The Tall family occupied our territory and robbed us of our resources, so you’re our enemy!” Vasily snarled furiously.
Hearing this, a frown marred Quinley’s countenance.
“Archaic Body cultivators? I’ve heard of Archaic Body cultivators, but when did the Tall family rob you of your resources and occupy your territory? I think you’re simply making false accusations. Don’t think I’ll be intimidated just because you outnumber me. If things were to get physical, you wouldn’t be my match.”
She had just broken through to Sixth Level Body Fusion Realm. Thus, even if Vasily and the others were to join hands, they were indeed not virtual-novel.net match.
“Cut it out, Vasily. The grievances between the Archaic Body cultivators and the Tall family don’t necessarily involve all members of the family. It’s clear that Ms. Tall wasn’t aware of virtual-novel.net family’s misdeeds. Don’t give virtual-novel.net a hard time anymore,” Jared interjected.
Vasily glanced at him. Knowing that the Archaic Body cultivators were not Quinley’s match without the man’s help, virtual-novel.net inclined his head a fraction and got out of the way.
“You may leave, Ms. Tall. We need to continue our journey as well,” Jared said to Quinley.
With one last look at him, Quinley spun on virtual-novel.net heel and left. Meanwhile, Jared and the others continued on their journey.
“Vasily, since Archaic Body cultivators have been in the far north for the longest, do you know of the ice soul fragments?” Jared asked Vasily.
“Of course I do. The ice soul fragments are a rare treasure in the far north, but they are few and far between. In all the years I’ve been living here, I’ve never seen a single piece. Why are you asking about it, Mr. Chance?”
Vasily was curious about how the man learned of ice soul fragments.
