Meanwhile, inside the palace at Bliss City, Jared remained unconscious on the floor.
After the merman absorbed a portion of the spiritual energy available, his gaze turned sharp.
He stared at Jared, lying on the floor, and curled his lips into a smile.
“I didn't expect to stumble upon the son of a dragon right after waking up after a few thousand years. I must be blessed with good fortune by the heavens.”
The merman slowly walked up to Jared.
His eyes shone and radiated a red glow. Then, he examined Jared's body like a scanner before the red glow disappeared.
“He's just a cultivator in the Nascent Soul phase. How can the son of a dragon-like him be so weak? Still, the draconic essence in his body is of substantial size. I'll absorb you first before slowly recovering my strength.”
As he spoke, the merman suddenly lunged forward in an attempt to grab Jared's draconic essence.
Just as he was about to get his way, golden light gleamed abruptly. Immediately afterward, a silhouette emerged from within Jared's body.
Buzz...
The silhouette was gigantic, and its entire body was covered in dazzling scales. The aura it emitted sent chills traveling down the spines of those around.
When the merman saw the silhouette's sudden appearance, he hastily leaped backward in fright.
Terror and uneasiness filled his eyes.
“How dare a mere, foul fish like you attempt to lay a finger on this body?” the silhouette uttered frostily.
The merman's body trembled as he got on the ground.
A look of utter disbelief spread across his face. “Y-You are dragging—”
Without waiting for the merman to finish his sentence, the silhouette casually waved its hand, sending a wave of gentle aura in the merman's direction.
Before the merman could dodge, he had disintegrated into nothingness as if he was never there.
The only proof of his existence was the crystal clear merman core left on the floor.
