Chapter 2449Chapter 2449 Three Major Races
Flaxseed and Hammerhead grew nervous when they witnessed Jared's actions.
Jared released a furious, thunderous roar. It was so loud that it hurt Flaxseed's and Hammerhead's
eardrums.
Whoosh!
Then, he let loose the bowstring, shooting the transparent arrow into the sky.
The speedy arrow tore through the air, creating a piercing sonic boom as it did.
Exhausted, Jared dropped to the ground, panting heavily.
“Are you all right, Jared?” Flaxseed hurriedly trotted toward Jared and helped the latter up.
In response, Jared nodded. “I'm fine.”
Upon ending his sentence, he stared at the transparent arrow intently as anxiety flooded his heart.
As the arrow flew higher and higher, it suddenly exploded. The violent, deafening blast could be clearly
heard even hundreds of kilometers away.
Following the detonation, the air shook and twisted. Eventually, a black hole formed in the sky.
The black hole started small, and its power was very weak.
Gradually, though, the black hole swelled in size, revealing a vortex inside.
The tremendous energy inside the black hole was pulling Jared and his gang toward it.Hammerhead stared at the black hole before him in disbelief. “It's open! I can't believe the portal is
open!”
Tears welled in his eyes because he had been trapped in the mundane world for over a decade by that
point. He never thought he had a chance of returning to the Ethereal Realm.
Jared turned to Hammerhead and urged, “Let's go, Master Hammerhead. I don't know how long that
portal will last.”
In response, Hammerhead nodded and jumped toward the black hole in the sky with Jared and
Flaxseed. Then, they were sucked into the dark vortex.
The group only felt their bodies tumbling around in the black hole for a moment before they passed out.
When they woke up, they discovered they had landed on a mountain range with a thick primeval forest.
“Where are we? Have we arrived at the Ethereal Realm?” asked Flaxseed as he scanned the
surrounding trees, bewildered.
Jared was confused, too. While he had visited the Ethereal Realm in the past, he only spent his time in
that valley of death slaying phantoms. He hadn't gone anywhere else.
Hence, Jared and Flaxseed had no choice but to depend on Hammerhead. After all, Hammerhead was
a resident of the Ethereal Realm, so he should be familiar with the place.
At that moment, Hammerhead snapped a few branches from a nearby tree and stabbed them into the
ground. Then, he used his finger to draw a few weird diagrams on the dirt. Slowly, the branches'
shadows began to move.After he observed the movements for a while, he furrowed his eyebrows. “D*mmit. Why were we
teleported to the domain of monsters? We need to leave here as soon as possible.”
Upon ending his sentence, Hammerhead used his feet to destroy the diagrams and led the other two
away.
“What do you mean by that, Master Hammerhead? Are there demon beasts in the forest?” asked
Jared, confused.
“The Ethereal Realm is different from the mundane world. This realm has three main races. The
humans, the monsters, and the demons. Each race lives in its own domain. While conflicts occasionally
break out, the races have never waged wars against each other. They have a peace agreement, which
is why the Ethereal Realm has been relatively harmonious for so many years. However, it's been over
a decade since I returned here. I don't know if there has been any new development, so we should
leave this place as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary problems.” As Hammerhead explained the
lore of the Ethereal Realm, he sprinted out of the forest with the other two.
After an unknown amount of time passed, the trio finally left the woods and arrived at the bottom of the
mountain.
“How far are we from Greenoxen Peak, Master Hammerhead?” inquired Jared.
“I don't think it's far, only over thirty thousand kilometers left,” Hammerhead answered.
Jared and Flaxseed almost fainted when they heard that. Over thirty thousand kilometers? How is that
not far?
