A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 5729

Grotesque beasts born of this hell occasionally surfaced—misshapen things forged from gore and resentment. Most felt the army's might and sank back, yet a few charged and were torn apart with casual brutality.

The search crawled on—long, monotonous, yet steeped in peril with every heartbeat.

Every so often, the heavens ripped apart, spawning blood-red storms loaded with wild spatial energy and soul-shattering force.

Each time, Jared flashed the Demon Seal Tower, anchoring the torn void while his indomitable spiritual sense shielded the Draconian army; without it, dragons would have been mutilated—or erased entirely.

They later drifted into a soul expanse, a colorless, scentless miasma that crawled into hearts, teasing out primordial terrors and weaving hallucinations darker than a moonless night. Several dragons, wills untempered, nearly tore each other apart before Jared summoned illusion nascence and blew the toxin away.

Ten days crawled by while they scoured the endless Nether Blood Sea, yet the entrance to the Soulgrave Abyss refused to appear.

Even my patience thins—this Soul Devourer hides like a fox in midwinter.

Coall vented a column of dragonfire, scattering the shrieking shades ahead. "Mr. Chance, drifting aimless won't do. This sea is endless, and it's draining us," he rumbled.

Jared halted above the crimson waves, eyes hard, the tower blooming from his palm like a miniature star. "If he won't come to us, we'll haul him into daylight!"

Essence surged into the tower, and soft yet boundless light rolled outward in widening rings. The glow carried a lure meant for corrupt spirits—comfort on the surface, shackles underneath.

In a sea thick with resentment, the tower burned like a lighthouse. For the Soul Devourer, its call was irresistible.

Moments later, the summons was answered. A bass hum vibrated across the bloody water.

Far ahead, the sea frothed, and a vortex hundreds of miles wide opened, sucking the abyss into itself. From its center rose a chill, malign, immeasurable pulse—an ancient beast of spirit slowly waking.

Jared recognized the aura at once. It was the Soul Devourer.
