Chapter - 2957

Lacey couldn't hold back her emotions any longer, and she started to cry, her tears flowing like a river. She sobbed, "Zeke... I thought I would never see you again in this lifetime... You scared me to death!"

Quinlan shouted, “Zeke, hurry up and leave the restricted realm! If you don't come out, you'll be blasted to death alive. By then, you and Lacey will never see each other again in this lifetime."

Darn it!

Lacey's face turned ashen, and she fled in panic. "This restricted realm can explode?"

What nonsense.

Quinlan said, "A restricted realm, in simple terms, is a special parallel universe. How would it not explode...."

"Why the hell didn't you say so earlier..." Zeke grumbled as he fled.

But before he could finish speaking, a thunderous "boom" erupted, causing Zeke's mind to reel violently. His vision went black and he was knocked unconscious by the shock.

"D*mn you..."

Just before passing out, Zeke cursed vehemently.

After some time, he slowly opened his eyes,

Before his eyes was the sight of Lacey with her tear-stained face.

Zeke felt a pang of heartache and reached out to wipe away the tear stains from the corner of her eye. "Lacey, I'm sorry..."

"Ah, Zeke, you're finally awake," Lacey could barely contain her excitement as she clutched Zeke's arm. "Zeke, I was scared to death earlier, you know? Your heartbeat just stopped all of a sudden. Thanks to Aged Ginseng giving you a leg hair to consume, you survived.”

With gratitude in his eyes, Zeke looked at Aged Ginseng and expressed, “Aged Ginseng, thank you."

Aged Ginseng chuckled warmly, "It's nothing, really nothing. But next time, try not to get hurt again. I don't have much leg hair left."

With a hint of jest, Quinlan jokes, "It's just a strand of leg hair, why are you being so stingy? Look at how much hair you have on your legs."

Aged Ginseng countered, "You know nothing. Let me tell you the truth, my life force is all in these leg hairs. My life force diminishes a bit each time one is plucked. At the rate Zeke is getting injured, I won't last a few days."

Zeke suddenly realized how much Aged Ginseng had sacrificed for him.

He had no way to repay him, so he tossed a spirit pill to Aged Ginseng. "Aged Ginseng, take this to nourish your body."

Aged Ginseng was overjoyed. “Thank you, Mr. Williams."

Quinlan approached Zeke and teased, "Well done, lad. You actually managed to break the restricted realm and escape alive. That's no small feat. Tell me, do you still have any ancient treasures on you?"

Zeke shook his head. "Where would I go to get an ancient treasure? I shattered the restricted realm and escaped alive with my own strength."

Haha!

Quinlan's face was filled with skepticism. "You might fool a three year-old, but deceiving me? Dream on. With your level of power, how could you possibly shatter the restricted realm? I don't mean to belittle you, but even ten of you might not be able to break it."

Zeke questioned, "Why won't I be able to break the restricted realm?"

Quinlan explained, "Alright, let me break it down for you. To cast a Restrictive Spell, one must be a Nebula Class warrior at the very least. You, a mere Celestial Class... Fine, you have the dragon vein as your spirit pill, so you can barely be considered a Sun and Moon Class martial artist now. But how will you break a Restrictive Spell cast by a Nebula Class warrior?"

Quinlan continued, "You could have claimed to be a top-tier Sun and Moon Class martial artist, but ironically, you're the weakest among them. You say you don't have any ancient treasures to help you break the Restrictive Spell. No one will believe that."

Zeke chuckled, "I'm afraid to disappoint you, but I truly shattered the restricted realm with my own abilities. Let me show you something."

Once he finished speaking, Zeke put out the dragon vein for Quinlan to see.

After Quinlan and the others finished observing, they all looked somewhat surprised.

"It's only been a short while since we last met, yet your dragon vein seems to have grown stronger again."

"Yeah, no wonder I felt a surge of power from you earlier. So, your dragon vein has become stronger.”

"How did you manage to strengthen so much in such a short span of time?”

Zeke shared, "It's simple, my dragon vein swallowed the master of the Restrictive Spell."
