CHAPTER 2443 COFFIN

At that moment, Skylar was kneeling before Tanner in the Evil Heart Sect, his face as white as a sheet.

The shock had dispirited Skylar so much that it seemed like he had lost his sanity.

He was once ambitious, but that demeanor of his was nowhere to be found.

He had been certain that he would become undefeatable upon emerging from his hell-like training— that he could easily defeat Jared.

Yet, reality showed him otherwise. He could not even defend himself during his fight against Jared.

With his head lowered, Skylar awaited punishment from Tanner.

Tanner's countenance was icy as he looked at Skylar's disheartened state.

“Lord Tanner, what do we do now? Skylar still isn't a match for Jared despite undergoing hell-like training. It's almost time for the activation of the Spiritual Energy Restoration Formation. If we can't restrain Jared Chance, he'll definitely take the opportunity to sabotage us,” Malphas whispered to Tanner.

“It looks like I've overestimated the power of Inferno Devil's Form. Still, at this point, we can only think of how we should rapidly boost Skylar's cultivation level,” Tanner enunciated.

“Lord Tanner, even if we use all of the sect's resources, Skylar won't be able to refine them all so quickly,” Malphas pointed out.

“If he can't refine the resources, we'll give him the end product. We'll get him to absorb others' cultivation to boost his own...”

As Tanner spoke, he turned to look at Malphas.

That frightened Malphas, who promptly went on his knees before Tanner, fearing that his lord would make him the one to have his cultivation absorbed by Skylar.

At the sight of Malphas' terror, Tanner continued, “You don't need to be afraid. What you have is far from enough. I'm going to entrust you with a task, so do complete it swiftly.”

He waved his hand, then whispered something to Malphas.

After listening to his instructions, Malphas nodded and hurriedly left.

Glancing at Skylar, Tanner waved his hand again and said, “You're dismissed too. Without my permission, you're not allowed to look for Jared.”

Skylar silently stood up and left.

Tanner was livid as he watched Skylar leave. If Skylar did not have Inferno Devil's Form, he would have killed him a long time ago.

Not long after Skylar departed, Quindon and the other purple-robed emissaries returned.

“Didn't I ask you to restrain Jared? Why have you returned?” Tanner asked.

“Lord Tanner, we've trapped Jared with the Immortal Ensnarement Formation. He won't be able to escape,” Quindon stated. “Now that Jared is trapped, I hope you can let us return to the secret realms to see our family. After all, we've come in a hurry and did not have a chance to bid them goodbye.”

“I've already sent men to bring your family here. In less than two days, you'll be able to meet them, so be patient. What's most important right now is the activation of the Spiritual Energy Restoration

Formation. As long as the spiritual energy is restored, you'll be able to go everywhere in the mundane world. There will be no secret realm to speak of,” Tanner said to the purple-robed emissaries.

Upon hearing that, the purple-robed emissaries quickly expressed their gratitude toward Tanner, having never thought that he would bring their families over to them.

After the purple-robed emissaries left, Tanner waved his hand, and a black hole appeared in the air.

Ripples appeared in the air before the black hole, and four masked men stepped out of the black hole.

Moreover, they were carrying a sanguine-colored coffin that looked sturdy.

However, complicated runes were carved all around the coffin. There were even charms glued to it.

It was as if some demon was sealed up in the coffin.

Once the four masked men placed the coffin before Tanner, one of them took out a token and passed it to him.

Tanner received the token and imbued a pulse of aura into it, causing it to flash red light. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

Along with the red glimmer, the coffin began to quiver, and a frightening aura emanated from it.

The four masked men merely spared it a glance before returning into the black hole.

Meanwhile, Tanner looked at the token in his hand and the coffin before him with exhilaration.
