Emerald Cove. Dadangar.
Aram Talak's gaunt figure moved stealthily along the remote shore of Emerald Cove.
His eyes, once sharp and determined, were now sunken and filled with a mad gleam.
His skin, ghostly pale, contrasted starkly with his ash-white hair, making him appear almost like a ghost in the dim light.
The former late-stage Spirit Refiner had miraculously ascended to the Foundation Building Realm, but his unstable aura made it seem like the breakthrough into the 2nd Spirit realm wasn't natural.
It seems that Aram Talak had indeed fallen into a trap while exploring the 3rd-order cultivation cave, but it didn't kill him. Instead, an ancient Foundation Building Expert's ghost possessed him.
This ghost gained all of Aram Talak's memories and raised Aram's cultivation base to match what he had during his prime. However, the cultivation base that was raised suddenly wasn't stable. This ghost, therefore, decided to use Aram's memories to find prey.
