A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 1554

Chapter 1554 Back To Cultivation

“Why are you all progressing so slowly in your cultivation when this island is so rich in spiritual energy? Also, why are you all unable to go beyond Nascent Soul?” Jared asked.

He found it hard to believe that an entire island would be affected by a curse or arcane array.

After all, it would require an unimaginably high cultivation level to cast an arcane array or curse this powerful.

The Grand Elder had a conflicted look on his face as he shook his head and said, “I’m not sure about that either. I believe only the royal family would have the answer to that question. The Duncan family has been in control over Encanta Island for hundreds of years, so King Duncan should know the cause…”

“Is that true?” Jared frowned and glared coldly at the Grand Elder. He’s the Grand Elder, so there’s no way he wouldn’t know about that!

“He’s telling the truth. I’m afraid the members of the Duncan family are the only ones who know the secrets,” Flaxseed said as he came running over with the food from earlier.

The look on the Great Elder’s face changed when he detected Flaxseed’s aura and realized he was a Golden Core cultivator like Terrell.

After all, there weren’t many Golden Core cultivators on Encanta Island.

Jared nodded. “Yeah, you’re right.”

The inhabitants of this island are all spiritual energy cultivators, and spiritual energy cultivation is much more powerful than the martial arts world. They even have different cultivation levels for immortals! In the martial arts world, however, there are no records beyond Martial Arts Saints who enter the Manifestor level. Martial Arts Grandmasters are nothing in the realm of spiritual energy cultivation! In other words, martial artists and cultivators cannot be treated as equals. The martial arts world is only thriving today due to the spiritual energy deficit, which makes it hard for spiritual energy cultivators to survive. Even so, the martial arts world is still considered weak compared to spiritual energy cultivation. I have no idea what challenges lie ahead of me on this island, but I do know that the person who is able to control an entire island must be very powerful! Even if we do manage to uncover the secrets and find the mastermind behind all this, there’s no guarantee that we’ll be able to handle it. I should focus on increasing my cultivation level as much as possible before uncovering the secrets of Encanta Island!

With that in mind, Jared added, “You can come see me here three months from now. We can then go investigate this island’s secrets, regardless of my cultivation level at the time.”

“Sure thing!” Flaxseed nodded.

Jared then set up a defensive arcane array and went back into cultivation mode while Flaxseed investigated the secrets of Encanta Island.
