Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns novel Chapter 187

A few seconds later, elders at the preliminary stage of Divinity Phase from two parties changed their expressions drastically.

A hint of joy appeared on Shaan's face.

In the field, the energy storm subsided.

Eight figures appeared.

Four Jacobs were holding the two guardians, the Grand Elder, and the Second Elder respectively in their hands.

....

It was unknown whether the members from the Sacred Mountain and the Dark Palace were alive or not.

Seeing this, two other elders of the Sacred Mountain and the Dark Palace did not hesitate at all. With a single movement, they immediately disappeared from their original location and were about to flee.

"Do you think you can escape?" Jacob sneered.

Four Jacobs merged into one.

Then, he threw a punch at the two elders respectively.

Two rays of fist lights almost broke through the sound barrier and rushed towards them.

Something sounded.

Two miserable screams came from afar.

Then, the voice stopped abruptly.

...

...

"What a young hero! Jacob, you are strong!"

Shaan said immediately when he saw Jacob walking over.

"Jacob, I owe you a favor. If you need my help, please feel free to tell me. As for the ancient ruin, I will share information with you."

After saying that, Shaan directly told Jacob about the ancient ruin.

Shaan had already heard from Elsa that Jacob was willing to come to the Triangle Region because she had promised Jacob that she would tell him about the ancient ruin.

That was what Shaan intended to do.

Hearing this, Jacob nodded in satisfaction.

"I'm very curious as to what exactly is the ancient ruin like!"

Jacob said.

Hearing this, Shaan immediately explained, "The ancient ruin is only a general term. In fact, it may be the ruin of ancient sects, dynasties, or even some masters' personal mansions...."

Jacob's eyes sparkled, "What kind of ancient ruin is this in the Triangle Region?"

Shaan sighed. "Since I discovered it, I have never been inside. I'm at my wit's end with breaking the peripheral matrix on the outside alone. I planned to break the matrix, but I didn't expect that I would be hurt by it and suffer from serious internal injuries. Jacob, thanks to you, my injuries are completely healed. Even the internal injuries that I have been unable to cope with have been cured."

After a pause, Shaan continued, "Although I have not entered the site, in my estimation, the ancient ruin here are not left by prominent sects. It's more like a master's mansion. Just telling from the matrix outside, it can be told that even a peak Divinity Phase cultivator will be seriously injured or even perish if he accidentally falls into it ... So I'm sure that the owner of the ancient ruin must have been above the Divinity Phase before he died. It's very likely that he has reached the legendary Immortal Phase. "

Speaking of which, Shaan showed a yearning for it in his eyes.

"The Immortal Phase? Is it equivalent to the Divine Sea Realm?"

A doubt niggled at Jacob.

His curiosity towards the ancient ruin grew even more intense.

Apart from wanting to see if he could gain some benefits from it, he also wanted to determine if there was an immortal civilization on Earth.

...

...

"Jacob, we are at the ancient ruin."

After Jacob gained a slight understanding of the so-called ancient ruin, they arrived at a waterfall near the divine stronghold without any delay.

As Jacob looked at the waterfall, his spiritual will instantly spread out.

It went straight through the waterfall.

Behind the waterfall was a huge cave.

In the eyes of ordinary people, they would only think that it was a normal cave.

Even a Divinity Phase expert wouldn't be able to discover the abnormality if he didn't use his spiritual energy to carefully explore it.

However, everything in the cave was unreservedly displayed in front of Jacob's eyes.

Within his field of vision, several runes were flickering in the cave.

A psychedelic array had concealed everything.

"Jacob, have you got any clue?"

Shaan looked at Jacob and asked.

Back then, the psychedelic array in the cave had been troubling Shaan for nearly half a year and he just figured out a little bit. It took him another half a year to break the psychedelic array. To be exactly, he didn't break it. Instead, he found an opportunity to allow him to pass through the psychedelic array.

"It's just a mere psychedelic array. It's no big deal."

Jacob said calmly.

As soon as Jacob finished, Shaan was surprised. Immediately after, a burst of excitement surged through him.

Jacob could tell at a glance that there was a psychedelic array here.

He was much more powerful than Shaan back then.

Did it mean that today they were likely to enter this ancient site and obtain Fortuity within it?

Thinking of this, Shaan felt even more excited.

There was a high possibility that this was left by an Immortal Phase expert. Perhaps they could find a way to break through the shackles of the Divinity Phase.

After all, in this world, no matter how talented a person was, they could only stop at the peak Divinity Phase.

No one could reach the legendary Immortal Phase.

There was no way ahead.

Perhaps the way to solve the puzzlement could be found in the ancient ruin.

This was the reason why Divinity Phase experts were interested in the ancient ruin.

This was even truer of those who had reached the peak Divinity Phase.

As many thoughts flashed through Shaan's mind, Jacob did not hesitate.

He took a step forward and soared into the sky.

He stepped on the void and arrived at the waterfall.

Seeing this, Shaan did not delay. He brought Elsa with him and followed.

Jacob threw a punch at the waterfall.

Suddenly, much aerial force burst forth.

It went against the current.

The waterfall was directly cut off, revealing a huge gap in the middle.

Only then did Jacob enter the cave rapidly.

Seeing Jacob break the waterfall with one punch, Shaan was slightly stunned. Then, he hurriedly followed with Elsa.

"Jacob, I have a way to pass through the psychedelic array. However, the process is a little complicated."

Shaan immediately said. He was prepared to inform Jacob of the method of passing through the psychedelic array so that they could quickly go inside to break through other matrices.

However, Jacob shook his head and said, "No need. Follow me."

After saying that, Jacob continued, "Open!"

Then Jacob rubbed his fingers and formed a sword. He sliced the cave from eight different directions, creating eight rays of sword mana.

The sword mana descended.

In an instant, runes appeared in front of Shaan.

A visible matrix came into sight.

However, the psychedelic array had already lost its effect.

Behind the cave, a stone door appeared.

On the stone door, there were three words that could be vaguely seen.

"Ullr Palace!"

Jacob's eyes lit up when he saw these characters.

"Shaan, do you recognize these words?"

Jacob turned to look at Shaan.

Shaan looked up, nodded, and then shook his head.

"This kind of characters can only be found in some ancient ruin. I roughly know it. If I'm not mistaken, it should be some sort of immortal palace!"

Shaan did not fully recognize these words.

In all ages, no record of these characters could be found on Earth.

It only appeared in some ancient ruin.

Based on guesses and research, people knew part of the characters after the discovery of the various ancient ruin. But no one was certain whether their interpretations were accurate or not.

"Ullr Palace."

Jacob said.

Not only did Jacob recognize this type of writing, but he was also familiar with it.

He was even more familiar with it than characters used in China.

If Edwin, Grizzly Bear, and Grizzly Bear under Jacob's hand were here, even though they didn't recognize these words, they would definitely be very familiar with them. This was because these characters were the same as the ones on the arms of members of the Army from Acheron led by Grizzly Bear and Tekken.

This was the common language of the immortal realm in the universe.

"Jacob, to my surprise, young as you are, you are at Incarnation Phase and are knowledgeable."

Shaan laughed.

Jacob thought Jacob asked him so as to confirm the meaning of those characters.

"Let's go!"

Jacob said.

Then, he took the lead and walked inside.
