A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4425

At Bone Break Cliff, everyone stood at the edge, gazing down into the bottomless abyss below.

Despair flooded them all.

Wasn’t it said that this is this cliff is the merging point of two mainlands that resulted in a chasm?

Why is there such a huge discrepancy?

It was pitch black as far as the eye could see. Nothing was visible.

It was as if the entire mainland had been abruptly cut right off there, the darkness ahead the end of it all.

“How… How are we supposed to go down? It’s too deep,” someone lamented helplessly.

Everyone’s strength had been suppressed then, reducing them to mere mortals. Thus, no one would dare jump down directly since they’d surely end up pulverized.

Moreover, no one knew what lay down there. It was an unknown area.

“I can take you guys down there!” the lightning beast interjected at just that moment.

Everyone there had their abilities restrained, with only the lightning beast unaffected.

“That’s great! Then, please take us down!” the elderly man among the cultivators exclaimed.

“However, taking so many people down with me would greatly deplete my energy. So…”

The lightning beast’s brows furrowed slightly.

“Don’t worry. We’ll certainly reward you handsomely. Once we find any magical items, we’ll share some with you,” the elderly man assured quickly, grasping its meaning.

The other cultivators also nodded in agreement, one after another.

If they didn’t have the lightning beast take them down, they could only be stuck there.

“Magical items aren’t of much use to me. However, if you have spiritual stones, you could give me some to replenish my energy,” the lightning beast countered outright.

That made it clear that it wanted spiritual stones in exchange for taking them down.

At the mention of spiritual stones, all the cultivators were momentarily stunned. They then exchanged glances.

After all, sharing magical items was just an empty promise, with unknown commitments being most worthless.

But when it came to spiritual stones, it would mean truly digging into one’s pockets.

Seeing that everyone was hesitant, the lightning beast continued, “I won’t insist on it. If you don’t want to go down, just pretend that I didn’t say anything.”

Even Catalina clutched her life-saving token in her hand, her expression tense.

“Calm down, Ms. Lantz. Everything will be fine.” Jared assured affectionately.

While doing so, he wore a grave expression himself, for he couldn’t shake the sense of uneasiness within him.

It was the kind of feeling of danger being imminent.

He could only clench his fists tightly, channeling all his strength into them.

The others also wore expressions of solemnity. Some even prayed quietly under their breaths.

In the darkness, they were all like a lamb to the slaughter.

Rumble!

Suddenly, a flash of lightning streaked across the sky, piercing the darkness with a sliver of light.

Taking advantage of the light, everyone finally managed to see the situation beneath Bone Break Cliff. The blanket of white wasn’t a layer of snow but stark white bones.

At the same time, intense lethal intent kept surging up from below.
