A Man Like None Other

Jared was even more puzzled after listening to the old man's explanation. Since that was the unbreakable rule, why did the most recent chief of the Archaic Body cultivators spread the news of the treasure land? Not only that, I was given the real key to the treasure. He clearly wants me to find it, but why? Also, Jipsdale's countess was the one who asked me to retrieve the Ice Soul Pill. What's going on?

As Jared pondered the situation further, he came to the realization that he had fallen into a much larger and more intricate trap. The countess of Jipsdale, the chief of the Archaic Body cultivators, and Mason from the Tall family... they're all connected!

Initially, the chief of the Archaic Body cultivators claimed to reveal the treasure's location to stir up chaos in the far north, with the primary aim of preventing the Tall family from seizing the Archaic Body cultivators' territory and resources.

However, after spending time at the Tall residence, I've come to realize that they aren't actually hostile toward the Archaic Body cultivators. Moreover, there seems to be some kind of connection between the Archaic Body cultivators and the Tall family. Since the Ice Soul Pill can reconstruct one's body, the countess of Jipsdale must be planning to use it to regenerate her own body.

Now, the big question is, how did the countess of Jipsdale learn about the treasure's location and the Ice Soul Pill? How did she know that the other half of the emerald badge was needed to form the real key to the treasure? What is the relationship between the countess of Jipsdale and the Archaic Body cultivators? How did she become aware of the Ice Soul Pill's existence among the treasure? And finally, what role does the Tall family play in all of this? I'm utterly baffled...
