The Legendary Man Chapter 797

The Legendary Man Chapter 797-The look on Jonathan’s face turned gloomy when he realized someone was spying on him.

While it was possible for him to cover a radius of up to a few hundred meters with his spiritual sense, to do so would require a huge amount of energy.

As powerful as Jonathan may be, it simply wasn’t possible for him to scan his surroundings all the time.

Anyone who had set up an arcane array in advance to conceal their aura would be able to avoid detection as long as there weren’t any spiritual energy fluctuations.

So, this is how they managed to listen in on my conversation with Hossom yesterday… I may not be a professional espionage agent, but I do know a thing or two about the tactics they use to gather information. That room is only dozens of meters away, so they could easily eavesdrop on us with the use of some high-tech equipment. I wonder if the people in that room are on that elderly man’s side or Kaga’s… Kaga may have claimed to be on my side, but we’re in the West Region right now. If she can sell me information on other people, she could easily sell my information to others as well. That’s why I can’t trust Hossom fully either.

With that in mind, Jonathan turned to look at the girl standing next to him.

She had both her hands on the windowsill and her mouth open slightly, baring her canines as she growled at the window in the distance.

Had Jonathan not kept her suppressed by holding on to the chain, she probably would’ve jumped out the window and attacked those people spying on them.

I thought I was careful, but this girl is a lot more alert and aware than I am. Is she even human? A Divine Realm cultivator, who has kept a girl as wild as a beast, wants me to bring her into Bazar Temple. Is there some kind of secret that I’m unaware of here?

As he increased the amount of spiritual energy in his hand, an electrical wave formed on the chain and caused the hostility in the girl’s eyes to disappear.

In just a matter of seconds, the girl had gone back to her zombie-like state with a blank look on her face.

Jonathan brought the girl back to the table and rang the bronze handbell above her head, causing a golden light to envelop the two of them completely.

That bronze handbell could block out mental energy, so he figured it would have no issue blocking out surveillance equipment as well.

The moment Jonathan activated the bronze handbell, the red silhouettes of himself and the girl disappeared on Kaga’s screen in a hotel room dozens of meters away.

“We’re unable to detect them via thermal imaging, and we can’t hear them either. This guy sure has some fancy tricks up his sleeve.”

There were two Grandmaster Realm cultivators standing next to Kaga with their arms behind their backs.

“Should we continue spying on him, Ms. Kaga?” one of them asked.

Kaga waved at him with a smile. “No. Jonathan must know what needs to be done if he hasn’t taken any action after discovering us. God-King won’t blame us if we leave now.”

“Understood,” said the two Grandmaster Realm cultivators with a respectful bow.

Meanwhile, Jonathan was staring blankly at the talisman on his desk.

He was halfway done with it when the girl dragged him to the window earlier.

That was the only talisman that he hadn’t ruined after trying for five hours.

Jonathan was surprised to find that the spiritual energy lines on the talisman were not transparent.

Upon closer inspection, he saw that the talisman did not explode because he didn’t complete the symbol earlier.

Jonathan then picked up his spiritual energy brush and slowly continued drawing on the talisman.

Bang!

The talisman erupted in flames the moment he finished drawing on it, forcing him to destroy it like the rest.

Exasperated, he tossed the spiritual energy brush aside and slumped weakly against his chair.

At this rate, I’ll end up using all three thousand talismans without producing even a single fireball talisman! I won’t be able to execute my plan unless I set Bazar Temple on fire. Is this really the end for me?

Jonathan was staring blankly at the spiritual brush in his hand when he thought of something.

Those talismans all exploded because they were defective… Wait a minute… I know! I can make defective talismans! Defective talismans will explode due to the unstable spiritual energy flowing through them! Since I only need a talisman that will burn, these defective talismans will serve that purpose by erupting in flames! There’s no need for a proper talisman if these defective ones will get the job done!

The exasperation and frustration that plagued him disappeared at the thought of that.

Jonathan then pulled out another talisman and drew the exact same symbol as he did earlier.

This time, however, he left it incomplete with about half a centimeter of it missing.

This time, however, he left it incomplete with about half a centimeter of it missing.

In doing so, he had turned the talisman into a mini arcane array.

The arcane array would not be activated unless he completed the symbol on the talisman.

Jonathan kept his eyes focused on the talisman that had no spiritual energy whatsoever as he picked up his spiritual energy brush.

The moment he completed the symbol, spiritual energy surged through the talisman and caused it to go up in flames.

Instead of trying to put out the flames, Jonathan simply let it burn inside the bronze handbell’s protective shield so he could feel the heat.

While it wasn’t as hot as a normal fireball would’ve been, it was hot enough due to the high spiritual energy content and the decent quality of the talisman.

After waiting for the fire to extinguish on its own, Jonathan whipped out dozens of spiritual energy brushes and laid the talismans out in front of him.

Like a student who was forced to write lines as a punishment, he then began scribbling the same pattern on the talismans to create as many as possible.

About an hour later, Jonathan had used up a huge portion of his spiritual energy to create over a thousand talismans.

He then put the remaining talismans into storage and sat cross-legged in the living room to replenish his spiritual energy.

All I have to do is hand these talismans over to Hossom tomorrow and wait for him to cause a scene with them. It won’t be easy to break a spell created by a Divine Realm cultivator.

Fortunately, that night went by peacefully. Jonathan and Hossom headed over to Utros together the next morning.

According to Hossom, there were two intersection points on the five paths that Prima took to get to Crowsaint.

One of them was at the bottom of a mountain near Crowsaint, and the other was Utros near Bazar Temple.

Hossom had a conflicted frown on his face as he stared at the black pills in Jonathan’s hand. “Mr. Goldstein, I don’t think is really necessary.”

“Oh, it is very much necessary. How else would I catch you if you decide to run off halfway through?” Jonathan tossed the pill into Hossom’s mouth as he continued, “These talismans will turn into fireballs once you infuse spiritual energy into them. Remember, our safety depends on how big of a scene you can cause at Bazar Temple.”

Chapter 1 The Return Of Asura

At Northern Crimson Prison located in Sanguine Desert, wind and sand swirled in the air, seemingly intent on submerging the entire prison. The prison confined the most sadistic murderers in the world, including serial killers who were the world's most wanted fugitives. That aside, the Rainy Night Butcher who had slaughtered a family of more than a dozen people and top-notch hackers who had infiltrated the Sanctum were also imprisoned there. Furthermore, the prison incarcerated the world's top killer who had failed to assassinate the leader of a particular country but annihilated more than a dozen special forces before going on the lam. Each and every single criminal imprisoned there had the blood of at least a dozen lives on their hands. Thus, their hands and legs were manacled with heavy iron chains. In front of their prison cells were fully armed guards who kept watch 24/7. The security was so tight that not even a fly could escape. However, there was an exception. The man seemingly never killed anyone and hadn't the slightest hint of murderous aura. In fact, it appeared as though he had been imprisoned there by mistake. There were no chains on his hands or feet, and he wasn't even wearing a prison uniform. No one knew his name, much less why he was being locked up in the prison. All they knew was that he came to Northern Crimson Prison alone a year ago without the escort of any guards. And surprisingly, the look in the eyes of the prison guards when they regarded him showed a faint trace of reverence. Bang! Bang! Bang! A prison guard holding a tray in his hand knocked on the man's prison door. “Mr. Goldstein, I'm here to deliver your meal!” “Okay. Just put it down.” The man didn't even bother to lift his head as he toyed with a Desert Eagle in his hands. In less than a minute, he had already disassembled the Desert Eagle and reassembled it perfectly. The speed of his hands was so swift that it would be nigh on impossible for even military personnel to trump him. “It's your last day here at Northern Crimson Prison, Mr. Goldstein!” The prison guard put the tray down, but he didn't leave. “It's been a year?” At long last, the man raised his head and revealed his countenance. He appeared to be very young, merely in his twenties. He wasn't fair but a touch tanned. The only intimidating thing about him was his eyes. They were sharp like blades, cold and devoid of emotion. The prison guard nodded slightly. “Yeah! The warden is already on his way back from abroad and will land in an hour.” “Why is he coming?” The man arched his eyebrow a fraction. “He's coming specially to see you off.” The warden of Northern Crimson Prison had been helming the place for decades, but he had never seen anyone off. At Northern Crimson Prison, he had a godlike existence and reigned supreme. No one dared to contradict him, let alone defy him. Yet, he was currently rushing back from abroad just to see the man off. The man sneered, his gaze cutting. “Hah! See me off, my foot! I think he wants to see me leave this place with his own eyes! As long as I'm at Northern Crimson Prison, he has no peace of mind! Tell him that he doesn't need to come and see me if he takes more than half an hour. Instead, just go back where he came from!” After saying that, he waved a dismissive hand and no longer paid the prison guard any mind. “Understood, Mr. Goldstein!” Lowering his head, the prison guard then left. A brief moment later, the man finally put down the Desert Eagle in his hands. His gaze turned a tad unfocused. “Time really flies. In the blink of an eye, a year has passed. It seems that it's also time for me to leave this hellish place!” Half an hour later, a middle-aged man in military fatigues strode toward the prison right on the dot. The moment he stepped into the prison, the raucous place instantly plunged into silence. Not a single sound could be heard any longer. The inmates, who were usually violent and savage, acted as though they saw something terrifying at the sight of him. They were so petrified that they didn't even dare twitch a single muscle. And that person was none other than the warden of Northern Crimson Prison! Right that moment, he was cautiously knocking on the door of Cell No. 0. “I'm not late, am I, Mr. Goldstein?” The warden stood outside the door, not daring to enter without permission. “You're a second late.” The man known as Mr. Goldstein placidly glanced at him before waving a hand and drawling, “Come in.” “Right away, Mr. Goldstein!” The warden gingerly pushed the door open and walked in. “How did you find it here for the past year, Mr. Goldstein?” “Passable.” In a mild voice, the man expounded, “The food has been pretty good, but it has been too boring without a woman! How nauseating to be with a group of men day in and day out!” “As you know, Mr. Goldstein, no woman is allowed in this prison...” The warden wore an aggrieved expression. This is a prison, not a clubhouse! As such, what would it look like to smuggle in a few women? “Okay, drop that pitiful act!” The man threw him an impatient look. “Is it time yet?” “Yes!” Nodding, the warden declared, “You should be leaving, Mr. Goldstein!” “Let's leave, then!” No sooner had the man raised a hand than the warden immediately stepped forward and helped him up from the ground. “Mr. Goldstein, have you found the item you've been looking for in the past year?”
