Chapter 2830: Are These Guys Loyal Retainers?
The Black Robed Man wasn’t weak, at least a Great Land Immortal, but Theo’s strength was incredibly formidable. As soon as Theo acted, it was complete domination.
The Black Robed Man suddenly felt the air around him tighten, and his body was bound by an invisible force, unable to move.
A surge of Demonic Qi infiltrated him, entering his forehead in an instant, sealing off the passage to his Sea of Consciousness.
Simultaneously, Carson Flores cast a Soundproof Spell, enveloping this small area.
The Black Robed Man was instantly dragged into the darkness by the invisible force.
When he saw the one human and one beast in front of him, he seemed to be greatly terrified or shocked and began to struggle violently.
"Who are you? Are you trying to die by breaking into here?"
His voice was rather strange, filled with anger and fear.
Carson Flores coldly said to the mysterious Black Robed Man before him, "It should be me asking you. Who are you, building an altar here? What dark scheme are you planning?"
The Black Robed Man roared, "You will die, you surely will die!"
"Playing tricks!"
Carson Flores sneered, "Each one tightly wrapped up, I just want to see what you’re hiding inside?"
With Carson Flores’ words, invisible power tugged at the man’s hood, attempting to reveal his true face.
The man shook his head in fear, but his Sea of Consciousness was sealed, leaving him powerless to resist.
As the hood on his head was about to flip backward, the man suddenly let out a low roar, "My clan wins forever!"
With his low roar, a burst of red light suddenly blossomed from beneath the hood, and then the man’s body directly exploded under this light, instantly transforming into a cloud of Blood Mist.
Carson Flores was astonished.
Wasn’t the Sea of Consciousness already sealed? Why could this guy still use spiritual power to self-destruct?
Could he be a Loyal Retainer?
I just wanted to see his true face, and he self-destructed immediately. Could it be that his appearance is not to be seen?
Just a glance would reveal something?
Fortunately, Theo’s strength was powerful. Seeing the opponent about to self-destruct, Theo instantly activated Domain Power, completely concealing the massive impact of the self-destruction within this Inch of Land, leaving none of the explosion’s breath to seep out.
To the outside world, the material yard was quiet, and nothing had happened, yet a Great Land Immortal had silently lost his life.
"What was up with this guy, directly self-destructing?"
Carson Flores muttered while inspecting the self-destructed scene, surprised to find that although the person had exploded, the black robe he was wearing along with the hood was still intact.
Carson Flores picked up the black robe and hood, released a Cleansing Spell, removing the bloody aura, and then unapologetically put them on.
In the blink of an eye, Carson Flores transformed into the Black Robed Hooded Man, the concealment spell on the hood hiding Carson Flores’ aura, making it impossible to discern who he was.
Perfect!
Carson Flores dared not waste much time and picked up a metal ingot he had previously selected, heading towards the camp.
Before, he deliberately waited until the opponent chose the materials to act, fearing he might expose their intentions.
Carson Flores leisurely returned to the camp, walking towards a large tent, which he had exited earlier.
Though there were many Black Robed Men in the camp, Carson Flores understood the risk of entering was great, but how could one catch a tiger cub without entering the tiger’s den?
If discovered, he would escape at once.
Carson Flores walked into the tent and saw inside a row of Black Robed Men sitting cross-legged, engrossed in Artifact Refining, and behind each Black Robed Man stood another Black Robed Man, apparently assisting the Artifact Refiner.
Carson Flores quickly scanned the area, finding an empty position behind an Artifact Refining Black Robed Man sitting cross-legged, and comparing with the surroundings, Carson Flores almost confirmed that the spot should be his.
Carson Flores walked over unhurriedly. As he reached the spot, the Artifact Refining Black Robed Man gestured, making the metal ingot in Carson Flores’ hand fly forward into the flames before him.
"Work faster, move briskly!"
The Artifact Refining Black Robed Man muttered before focusing on refining the metal ingot.
Carson Flores remained silent, nodded, and stood firm behind the Black Robed Man.
No one paid attention to Carson Flores.
Carson Flores breathed a sigh of relief; well, he guessed correctly, and blended in smoothly.
What’s next?
Now situating in the enemy center, Carson Flores could only take one step at a time.
Everyone was peacefully refining, and Carson Flores observed closely, noting they were refining parts of an altar, and this refining process was quite strange. Strands of blood were drawn from their Space Rings and injected into the items being refined, filling the tent with a blood-like aura.
This blood aura exerted an unsettling power, making Carson Flores’ heart beat uncontrollably faster, yet when observing other Black Robed Men, they seemed to perfectly adapt to this aura, even appearing to enjoy it.
An altar?
Blood Power?
Could this group be related to the Alchemy Path?
