Apotheosis

The mummy suddenly opened its eyes, startling everyone.

Especially Malcom, who was standing the closest to Yolande. He suddenly retreated several steps as though he had been bitten by a venomous snake. He stared at the mummy warily.

After all, the mummy used to be a world lord. He had the strength to control the world when he was alive. Now all that was left of him was a corpse, but the moment he opened his eyes, he caused fear in the hearts of the onlookers.

Yolande glanced at Malcom lightly before saying, "I didn't know how to leave the core area. But I do know now."

Everyone stared at the mummy carefully, afraid that it might come back to life. They couldn't imagine the strength of a world lord. Even one in ten thousand of his strength might be enough to kill everyone.

However, along with fear, one more emotion shone in the eyes of the onlookers, and that was greed, just like it did in Malcom's eyes.

Regardless of the mummy's previous identity, what he offered at this point was a great opportunity for everyone. Even the contents of the skylark bracelet that Yolande just took were hard to imagine.

Although they all eyed the skylark bracelet, they still had to be reasonable. Yolande knew more about the Dark Nether Cave than anyone else, and she said that there was a way to leave this place.

Opportunities were important, but survival was more important, so was leaving this damn place. They had to get out of the fog no matter what. Otherwise, they would die!

Zen, on the other hand, had an altogether different concern. He asked Lavender in a low voice, "If Yolande knew her brother died here, why did she wait until now to enter the Dark Nether Cave?"

He knew that it had been quite a long time since Yolande had entered the Tower of Sin. If her only goal was to collect her brother's belongings, there was no need to wait until now to enter the Dark Nether Cave. After all, the Dark Nether Cave opened every year.

Lavender shrugged her shoulders and said, "I'm not sure." After thinking for a while, she added, "Maybe it's because of you."

"Me?" Zen frowned.

"It's just a guess, but she has been following you from the beginning of the trip to the Dark Nether Cave. Collecting her brother's belongings might not be her only goal. There is some other reason too," Lavender said. "That guy called Immortal Mist, who gave you the Jade Butterfly, may also have his own ideas. If you find the inheritance, then you'll have to act according to the circumstances. He may not be a good person."

It was purely speculation. From Lavende

a small hill.

But not this sword. It just did not budge.

In the end, Malcom jumped down from the huge sword looking resentful.

"I can't take this sword away!" Malcom walked to the side with his hands behind his back. Having entered the treasure mountain but leaving empty-handed was indeed depressing.

Now Zen walked towards the sword.

"Humph! You think you can pull out the sword?" Malcom sneered.

"Zen, the weight of this sword cannot be estimated. Even if your strength differs from an ordinary person's, you still won't be able to pull it out," Fabian reminded him.

Zen smiled and said, "Who said I wanted to pull it out?"

The moment he said that, Yolande immediately understood what he wanted to do. Lavender agreed, "This sword has no owner. Since we can't take it away, it wouldn't be a bad idea to smelt it."

"Smelt it?" Shane narrowed his eyes and laughed. "It's not that simple to smelt this sword!"

"This sword of the Upper World has been standing here for countless years. The power contained in this giant sword is far beyond what we can imagine. Even if all of the weapon refiners in the world were invited here, they still wouldn't be able to smelt it," Jarrod said and shook his head.

Zen, however, did not speak. He walked to the side of the giant sword and sat down cross-legged. He had already used his black flame before them, and there was no need for him to conceal it. With a blink of his eye, the black flame in his mind shot out towards the giant sword.

"The black flame..." Esther and Fabian had seen Zen's black flame before, but Malcom had never seen it. The moment the black flame made contact with the sword, a small hole immediately appeared on its blade.
