The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 5719

Jared studied the bead again—gleaming, blood-red, utterly silent—while a faint crease deepened between his brows.

With the power and spiritual sense he now commanded, even relics cast for gods rarely escaped his notice.

Yet this tiny sphere remained mute, as though it belonged to the mortal realm, not the heavens he walked.

"Skyfiend Sect hid you so carefully," he murmured, turning the bead under the thin light. "What secret are you guarding?"

Jared whispered to himself, steadying his breath as he bled a thin strand of chaotic immortal energy into the blood-red pearl cupped in his palm.

The energy vanished as if poured into bottomless water. The orb lay cold and mute, giving nothing back.

He pricked a finger. A drop of fresh crimson spattered onto the surface, disappeared at once, yet the pearl remained stubbornly inert.

Jared weighed a harsher option—drawing the Dragonslayer Sword and cracking the thing open—when the world tilted without warning.

Deep inside his consciousness field, the Golden Tome—usually a silent, mist-wreathed scripture—buckled beneath an unseen pull. Brilliance surged.

Buzz!

A geyser of pure gold light shot out of Jared's brow, solid as a pillar, draping the scarlet orb in its blazing mantle.

That radiance felt like the marrow of the cosmos itself—vast, sovereign, cleansing everything it touched.

Smothered by the canon's glory, the pearl could no longer pretend to sleep.

"Argh!"

The cry that erupted was ancient, venom-soaked, and soul-rending. It tore at spirit, not air.

Coall and the other Draconians, busy tallying loot nearby, jerked around—faces blanched—feeling that scream claw straight at their cores.

The pearl's surface churned like a boiling sea of blood beneath the relentless gold.

A dense, towering shadow—far older and stronger than the fragment of the Soul Devourer Jared had just faced—was wrenched out into open dusk.

Skyfiend Sect's founding patriarch? Jared's eyes narrowed to flint.

So the sect kept a monster like this hidden all along.
