Chapter 2323
Meanwhile, in the ocean near Kazillion Mountains, a pir of water shot high up into the clouds and
stirred up huge waves. As the pir of water came back down, a vortex with a radius of dozens of
meters formed on the ocean’s surface.
The inside of the vortex was pitch-ck and seemed bottomless. Naturally, a bizarre phenomenon like
this was bound to attract the attention of everyone in the hidden realm.
They were all frozen in shock when they saw the bottomless vortex in the middle of the ocean. Highly-
concentrated spiritual energy emanated from the vortex. It was so tempting that those who felt it
couldn’t help but jump into the vortex.
Yashur, who was dozens of miles away, had noticed the sudden change in the atmosphere and came
rushing over on an orca. His expression slid into a frown when he saw the giant vortex and felt the
spiritual energying out of it.
“Did a hole open up in the secret realm?” he mumbled to himself. He could tell that the spiritual energy
was not from the mundane world. Only the secret realm could have spiritual energy of such
concentrations.
However, the entrances to each secret realm: were extremely well-hidden and protected by arcane
arrays. One would have to recite a password in order to get in. If an entrance to a secret realm had
appeared out of nowhere, then there must have been an opening in said secret realm.
After taking a moment to think about it, Yashur hopped right into the vortex as well. Jared was still
unconscious inside the pitch- ck vortex as the energy within continued to attack him.
Fortunately for him, his body was well protected by the dragon and phoenix. Otherwise, his body would
have been reduced to a bloody pulp by then. Suddenly, a bright pir of light, that was as fast as
lightning, appeared inside the vortex and struck Jared.
Peering from the outside, all the onlookers caught a glimpse of a radiant burst within the depths of the
dark vortex. Yet, their bodies involuntarily trembled as they sensed the formidable aura emanating from
that luminous spectacle.
A derisive smirk yed on us’s lips as he detected the formidable aura exuded by the luminous
light. “Hmph! Even the head of the Yuchamore family couldn’t make it through the vortex. Jared must
have a death wish to dive in there! It’s been so long, and if he hasn’t emerged yet, we can safely
assume he’s met his demise!” Hailey shot him an icy-cold re. “Shut up! Jared won’t die!”
us did not say anything in response, but his hatred toward Jared intensified after that. Meanwhile,
within the vortex, Jared’s body remained unscathed despite being struck by the pir of light. However,
the crystal skull housed within his Storage Ring slipped out and began to levitate above him.

The presence of the crystal skull intensified the turbulence within the vortex. It emitted a radiant glow
as it gradually drew nearer to Jared’s chest.
With a final, dazzling glow, the crystal skull vanished. A secondter, something that resembled a tattoo
of the crystal skull appeared on Jared’s chest.
The energy flowing into Jared’s body was immediately absorbed by the tattoo of the crystal skull. Jared
slowly opened his eyes as the power inside him disappeared, only to feel a sharp pain tearing through
his chest.
His curiosity oveing the pain, Jared’s gaze shifted downward, and his eyes widened in shock at
the sight of the crystal skull tattoo etched onto his chest.
“What is happening?” Jared eximed in shock and confusion. Before he even realized what was
going on, however, his body had crashed onto a huge rock.
Jared felt as though his aura was being suppressed as his blood surged violently through his veins. A
few secondster, he coughed up a mouthful of blood that was pitch- ck in color.
To his astonishment, the blood seeped through the giant rock it hadnded on, melting a hole as if it
were acid. What the… What’s going on with my body?
