Chapter 3633

After a moment, Zeke nodded. "You don't need to concern yourself too much. Just tell us what you know. Perhaps, I could spare. you have a chance to live." Scarface looked tense, slowly nodding his head. "Alright, I will inform you, sir, about everything that has happened to us." He began to recount the events that had transpired since his entrance into the Secret Realm of Mount Kush. The situation was somewhat akin to what Orion had experienced. Essentially, they had been summoned by the powerful individuals of the human race and offered certain benefits, which led them to join the forbidden grounds. Although it was said, the forbidden ground of the Metal Palace wasn't quite like the forbidden ground of the Reincarnation Immortal, or perhaps the Worldly Palace, with its boundless and immense power. However, places like Metal Palace, which were rumored to house the resurgence of a true immortal, held a terrifying amount of power. At the onset, they had intended to remain loyal to the human race. If anything threatened to harm the humans, they might have even rebelled. The benefits that followed were simply too plentiful, leading to a complete integration into the forbidden territory's influence. After all, power was as vital as life itself. The ability to enhance one's power, and to do so swiftly, would make anyone green with envy upon witnessing it. They hailed from the Dominion Sect, a mystical cultivation sect much like others, generally not involved in the mortal world. This was also why, even after so many years serving as a Great Marshal, Zeke's knowledge remained significantly limited. The mortal world and the spiritual cultivation were two different worlds. After joining Metal Palace, they interacted with some of the revived cultivators. These cultivators were incredibly arrogant, treating them as if they were underlings. This was why the man from the zenith stage of Nebula Class, who had clearly made a breakthrough, did not reveal any sign of it. The presence of contempt was not hard to comprehend. The revived beings were quite arrogant, primarily because the ancient era they originated from was immeasurably stronger than the current human race. Scarface's explanation was rather detailed, covering the entire process from how they entered the forbidden grounds. Only then did Zeke finally grasp the general layout of the Ancient Graveyard. There was a high chance that something significant might soon occur at the Ancient Graveyard.

Not only were there disciples in this batch who entered the Ancient Graveyard had joined the forbidden grounds, but even some disciples who had previously entered the Ancient Graveyard had also joined the forbidden grounds. Once upon a time, during a venture into the Secret Realm of Mount Kush, a significant number of disciples had gone missing. At that time, it had even aroused the surprise of many Eternal Class beings among the human race. However, there wasn't any more information, or perhaps they didn't reveal it, so the matter was left unresolved. At the time, Zeke was still immersed in the mortal world, leading a grand army into battle. Thus, he was not privy to much information. Now, everything seemed to make sense, and everything could be explained. The Ancient Graveyard appeared serene, but behind its tranquility, a storm was brewing. The revival of ancient spirits had begun. It wasn't just the Emerald Sword God, but many more forbidden grounds were also stirring. It seemed as if they were all awakened by a mysterious force. Many ancient and formidable Eternal Class beings had the opportunity to revive. Of course, in reality, they couldn't all recover. Many had already fallen irrevocably. It was merely the ability to establish forbidden grounds that inherently provided a means of survival, which was why they could continue to exist. Zeke's expression was somewhat gloomy. He could tell that these three seemed to have completely sided with the forbidden grounds, rather than the contemporary human race. Furrowing his brows, he pondered for a moment before slowly asking, "Do you happen to know how many forbidden grounds are currently in power?" "I had some understanding of the forbidden grounds' forces," Scarface said. After a moment, he replied, "There are at least dozens of forbidden grounds." "If we were to include the forbidden grounds of ferocious beasts, as well as those of demonic cultivators, there would be even more." As he spoke, his demeanor became increasingly cautious. He pondered over the fact that Zeke didn't even know this and wondered if his own assumptions were incorrect. He felt that Zeke could very well be a part of the power of the forbidden grounds, similar to their own origins. Moreover, it was highly likely that Zeke hailed from the demonic cultivators within the human clan.
