Chapter - 3251

Everyone immediately followed the instructions.

Suddenly, Zeke launched an attack on the large rock, intending to shatter it.

Edurne became anxious and quickly stopped Zeke. "Stop! Why are you trying to destroy the stone? Didn't you say it was our only hope for survival?"

Zeke replied, "That's right. It is indeed our only hope for survival."

Zeke didn't offer much explanation. Instead, he launched another attack towards the large rock.

Boom!

With a muffled thud, the large rock shattered on the spot.

Next, a strange scene unfolded.

The surrounding darkness quickly receded, and before long, it had significantly lightened. Suddenly, they could see each other from several meters away.

Just like that, the storm, the cold, and the frost all vanished, leaving no trace of discomfort on their bodies.

In fact, they felt that their physical bodies were in peak condition.

That sudden and drastic change left everyone utterly bewildered. What is happening?

"Wait a minute, am I seeing things, or c feel like we're outside the ancient archaeological site right now?"

"You're not seeing things. We have indeed left the ancient archaeological site and emerged into the outside world."

"Can anyone explain what just happened?"

After everyone stopped talking, they turned their gaze to Zeke simultaneously.

Without a doubt, that strange scene was undeniably linked to Zeke's arrangements.

Zeke explained, "Have you all heard of the Soul Trapping Array and the Ghostly Maze?"

Edurne immediately nodded. "I've heard of them. They are tactics unique to the Netherworld, utterly despicable and shameless. Are you suggesting that we just encountered the Netherworld's Soul Trapping Array and Ghostly Maze?"

"That's correct."

Edurne clenched her fists. "This is outrageous, absolutely outrageous! The Kush Clan and the Netherworld have always stayed out of each other's business, not interfering with one another. Now, they are secretly plotting against the Kush Clan. What is the meaning of this? When I return, I will report to the clan leader and ask him to punish the Netherworld severely."

Tanner asked, "Could it be possible that the Netherworld is scheming against Quinlan? I've heard that the relationship between the Gods and the Netherworld isn't exactly friendly."

Edurne nodded thoughtfully. "Hmm, there's indeed a considerable possibility that this is the case. However, now that Quinlan is our companion, any attack on him is also an infringement on us, the Kush Clan. The Netherworld must pay a price."

Tanner asked again, "Quinlan, was our escape from the illusion related to that large stone?"

Zeke nodded. "The Soul Trapping Array is a formation. Since it's a formation, there must certainly be a nexus. The nexus is the only thing in the illusion array that cannot be altered. That's why I concluded that this large stone is the nexus. Once we've destroyed the nexus, we'll naturally be able to escape the Soul Trapping Array."

Everyone suddenly understood.

Edurne asked, "Quinlan, you seem to be looking around. Do you suspect that the culprit is still nearby?"

Zeke nodded. "There's a very high probability of that."

D*mn it! The group immediately heightened their vigilance, scrutinizing their surroundings to spot the culprit.

Zeke released and spread out energy, swiftly locating the main culprit.

What Zeke never expected was that he was quite familiar with the aura emanating from the other person.

The aura belonged to the White Reaper of the Netherworld, who was the second-in- command of the Netherworld.

Even though the White Reaper hid himself well, he was ultimately discovered.

Zeke spoke through telepathy. "White Reaper, it's been a while. Hiding in the shadows like a timid turtle and scheming against others. Is this the style of the Netherworld?"

The White Reaper replied, "All's fair in love and war. The winner rules, while the loser is ruled. Don't you understand this simple truth?"

"Step forward. I'll grant you a dignified end."

"Zeke, are you sure you want to do this? You need to think it through."

"What a joke. Why do I need to consider anything else when I'm killing my sworn enemy?"

"I admit, my true fighting strength may not match yours. However, don't forget that you're in a dangerous situation right now. Tell me, if I broadcast your location through telepathy right now, will anyone come to claim your life? To my knowledge, Master Terrachus, Lord Wilder, and warriors from all realms are now seeking you. If they come, even if you have ten thousand lives, it won't be enough to fend them off."
