Chapter 5955

Three days later, eighty thousand li northwest along the Five-Element Range, a veil of natural mists hid a narrow valley.

The place belonged to an old secret realm of the Five-Element Sect, its entrance tucked behind a roaring waterfall.

Caverns spread wide beyond the curtain, soaked in dense spirit energy and guarded by layers of untouched formations.

Seclusion here felt absolute.

Deep inside the gorge, an impromptu cave dwelling had been carved from the stone wall.

Jared sat cross-legged within, skin the color of parchment, breath so thin it barely fogged the cool air.
