Chapter 490 You Can Open Your Eyes Now
Since George hit nothing but thin air, the momentum he had built up caused him to slam into a big tree.
Fortunately for George, not many saw the embarrassing outcome because of the fog.
Holding his injured arm, George finally figured out what was going on when he saw the seemingly
ferocious tiger once again. “I get it now, Mr. Snyder. These tigers are just illusions; they’re not real! That’s
why I couldn’t hit it.”
Then, the man hurriedly ordered the others, “Everyone, close your eyes and cover your ears. No matter
what you hear, don’t open your eyes unless I tell you to.”
Even though Jayden did not know exactly how the illusions worked, he decided to issue the same
command to his people.

After glancing around, Jared opened his mouth and sucked the thick fog into his belly. Even the vicious-
looking beasts could not escape the strong pull.
It did not take long before Jared restored the forest to the way it was. However, everyone around him still
had their eyes shut and ears covered, afraid to move a muscle.
“You can open your eyes now,” stated Jared calmly.
Slowly, the people opened their eyes and realized that the fog and the beasts had disappeared. It was as
if nothing had happened at all.
“Do you believe me now, dad? I was right about Jared!” said Tessa proudly when everything was right as
rain again.
“I’m sure he just figured it out sooner because he came into contact with the beasts before I did, Ms.
Snyder. I knew they were illusions too as soon as I tried to hit one,” argued George.
“Mr. Jenson is right. He figured it out right after he tried to attack one of those beasts. What did that boy
do?” Jayden quickly nodded in agreement with George because he knew how important it was for him to
be on the man’s good side.
“Mr. Snyder, two of our men went missing!” reported one of the Snyders’ servants.
“They must’ve disobeyed our order and were scared off by the illusions. I’m afraid that we’ve lost them to
the forest for good then,” explained George.
As soon as the man was done talking, the group heard the sound of two signal flares firing up to the sky.
Since the flares were fired from somewhere not too far off, Jayden immediately sent his people to find
the missing men.
Jayden slapped the two men violently when they finally rejoined the group.

The subordinates shivered in fear and dared not look their boss in the eye.
“Mr. Snyder, we have to get out of here as soon as possible. I believe our enemies summoned the fog to
slow us down, so we must not let them get their way,” reminded George.
“You’re right. Let’s get a move on.” Jayden then commanded his people to continue moving forward.
Meanwhile, Isaiah and the others had already made it out of the forest and were breathing in the fresh air
on the mountaintop.
Bruce was even more excited than the rest because he could feel the abundant spiritual energy there.
This is the perfect place for cultivation!
“Get ready! We’re going to find the entrance to the mine,” commanded Isaiah.
Hurriedly, Isaiah’s people then gathered their tools to carry out the order.
