Chapter - 3304

"Really?"

Everyone's attention immediately turned to Vela.

Initially, they were lost and unsure of where to begin. Vela's lead was a stroke of luck.

Vela nodded. "Certainly."

"I vaguely remember from the secret scriptures that the Demon Queen was sealed beneath a certain mountain with a bird-related name by the God King of the Gods. I can't recall the exact name of that mountain."

Eridanus quickly cautioned, "The God King has now advanced to the Demi-Emperor Class and is known as the God Emperor. We shouldn't refer to him as the God King anymore, as others may be listening."

Vela nodded cautiously. "Understood."

The group started discussing, and one of them asked, "Which bird mountain is it? There are several places in the Secret Realm of Mount Kush with similar names."

"Vela, do you have any additional information? It's nearly impossible to locate the place where the Demon Queen was sealed based solely on this."

"Could you recite the original text from the secret manual so we can analyze it thoroughly?"

Vela replied, "I read it when I was a child, decades ago. How could I possibly remember? The only thing I recall is that the mountain's name had a bird-related character. The area surrounding the mountain was lush, with abundant foliage and bathed in sunlight. It was an ideal place for life to thrive, yet devoid of any creatures."

"Mount Phoenix!"

Octantis, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke up.

All eyes turned to Octantis simultaneously. "Captain Octantis, what did you just say?"

Octantis said, "Mount Phoenix. Vela must be referring to Mount Phoenix. The Secret Realm of Mount Kush has thirty-six holy mountains, and Mount Phoenix is one of them. Among these thirty-six holy mountains, only Mount Phoenix has a name related to a bird. The ecological environment of Mount Phoenix matches Vela's description perfectly. It is lush and pleasant, but strangely devoid of any living creatures. This is why Mount Phoenix is considered one of the thirty-six holy mountains."

Everyone suddenly understood and praised Octantis. "Captain Octantis, you're very knowledgeable."

Octantis humbly replied, "This is basic knowledge in our martial houses. Understanding the ecology and geography of all realms is essential. Only by knowing ourselves and our enemies can we emerge unscathed from battles. After we return, all of you must take the time to solidify your foundational knowledge."

Everyone quickly nodded in agreement.

Octantis continued, "Mount Phoenix is located to the south, but Zeke went north. He will never find Mount Phoenix in his lifetime. Let's go. We need to reach Mount Phoenix as soon as possible."

"Alright!"

The group hurriedly set off.

They didn't consider the fact that even if they found the Demon Queen and released her, they might not be able to withstand her power.

If they couldn't hold their ground against her, they would surely face a counterattack.

After the group had left, a shadow slowly emerged from where they had stood.

This silhouette was darker than any human shadow, continuously emitting negative energy and exuding an eerie aura.

With a profound gaze, it watched as several people disappeared from sight before hastily departing as well.

The shadow traveled to a secluded cave on a nearby mountain and whispered, "Mr. White Reaper, I have returned."

From within the cave, a chilling voice echoed, "If it isn't crucial information about Zeke, I'll twist your head off."

The other party replied, "Mr. White Reaper, the news I have is even more sensational than finding Zeke."

"Oh?"

The other party, filled with interest, said, "Come in and tell me."

The shadow cautiously entered the cave.

The cave was dark and damp, filled with an eerie and chilling atmosphere that was oppressively heavy.

The cave wasn't particularly large, and at the very end, a figure sat in meditation with closed eyes.

This figure was none other than White Reaper from Netherworld.

White Reaper opened his eyes, gazing at the shadow beneath his feet, and asked, "Tell me. What have you discovered?"

The shadow said, "Mr. White Reaper, haven't you always suspected that humans have been secretly amassing strength, cultivating ancient martial arts warriors in secret? Now, my discovery confirms your speculation."
