After approximately an hour of continuous journey, Jared finally saw the end of the crevice. He breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew his spiritual sense slightly.
After all, it was an unfamiliar path, and there was no telling what dangers lay ahead. Jared led the way, remaining alert and focused throughout.
Behind, the atmosphere among the holy maidens was notably solemn, particularly for Bianca. She constantly felt that she was the cause of the two holy maidens’ deaths.
“Once we cross this crevice, we'll be even closer to the chaos dimension. Everyone needs to be on high alert. If you're not careful and get sucked into the chaos dimension, you're a goner,” Jared said to the numerous holy maidens.
“Understood.” This time, all the holy maidens heeded Jared's words without question.
Seeing the somewhat dispirited look on Bianca's face, Jared advised, “Bianca, stop blaming yourself. You need to pull yourself together. The growth and prosperity of Lunarius Palace rest on your shoulders. | can’t be there to aid you forever. You must bear your own responsibilities.” “Mr. Chance, | understand.” Bianca nodded.
The group skirted around the massive crevice, with the warped space not far off. Everyone was somewhat on edge.
Jared was still ahead. We must get our hands on the polar stones! “Polar stones!” Suddenly, a holy maiden let out a loud cry, darting toward the polar stones.

Not far off, there were hundreds of polar stones shimmering like blooming flowers atop the thick blanket of snow.
“It’s true that the closer we get to the chaos FERRE x I more polar stones there are,” Bianca said with deep emotion.
“Don’t go any closer!” Jared shouted abruptly at the holy maiden.
However, it was already too late. The holy maiden had reached the polar stones, and with palpable excitement, she began to stow them into her item pouch.
Seeing that, Jared quickly headed toward the holy maiden.
But as the chaos dimension began to stir, a massive force of attraction sucked the holy maiden right into it.
The holy maiden didn’t even have tto cry out before she vanished into the chaos. dimension, leaving no trace of movement or sound behind.
Everyone watched the scene in stunned silence.
The polar stones weren't too far from them. The holy maiden had only moved slightly closer before being absorbed into the chaos dimension.
From the looks of it, the place they were at that moment was probably not safe either.
“I'm stating this again: no one is allowed to wander off. Even if you spot a polar stone, you're not allowed to take it,” Jared ordered the holy maidens once again.
Before even encountering any enemies or demon beasts, they had already lost three of their people. This was a tremendous loss.
Jared continued on his journey with the holy maidens trailing behind him. They ventured into the chaos dimension, a place from which death was certain and no one could possibly rescue them.
They were about to reach the location with thousands of polar stones when a series of roars suddenly brought everyone to an abrupt halt.
A pack of white wolves with blue eyes emerged unknown location, glaring menacingly at Jared and his companions.

The white wolves were all bristling with a rising aura,their fur satnding on end . They directed a series of threats at Jared and his companions.
There were dozens of white wolves, their white fur creating a stark blanket of white.
The snow bear beast that Jared rode on becagitated and restless. In the end, it shook Jared off and bolted away.
It seemed that the snow bear beast was extremely afraid of the white wolves.
These wolves were pack animals, so they worked together with incredible synergy.
"How odd,” Jared mused. “These white wolves look exactly lke the ones | saw in the northern region. Do they exist in both the north and south?” He had also encountered white wolves when he was in the northern region.
All the holy maidens drew their frost swords, each with a tense expression as they prepared for battle.
