"Purification!"

Mithra's body started vanishing. Although she felt so much pain in this process, the smile did not disappear from her face.

"Thank you…" With these two words, she finally disappeared.

Alex closed his eyes for a bit. Well, he had received many things from her.

Of course, the spirits were also thankful to her since they could see Alex's fused his Sword Intent and Spear Intent together. That was what they appreciated the most.

Alex then looked at them with a smile. He finally became a Martial Lord, so in their group, only Anya who had yet to become a Martial Lord.

"So, Anya is the only Grandmaster…" Alex tried to tease her, wanting to ease the tension.

"Alex (Young Master)!" Anna and Anya immediately hugged him.

Although he wanted to stop Anya, he refrained himself only for this time.

"Master!" Suddenly Jeanne came behind him, bringing a space ring and a letter within her hand. "She must leave this behind."

Alex furrowed his eyebrows as he received the space ring and the letter from Jeanne. Jeanne was wandering around when everyone was worried about him.

He looked at the letter first.

"This space ring contains the belongings of the undead you defeated. Although most of them are rusty and unusable, it still has a value. You can pawn them off or anything.

"PS: I am sorry. I need the Spirit Stones to maintain the barrier and myself. There are still around a million Spirit Stones in the stone. Well, if you do not come for another century, all of it will be gone along with me."

Alex chuckled when he read the letter. Mithra was still herself when she left behind the letter. She should have made this when he was absorbing the knowledge.

Alex inspected the Space Ring, and most of the items were rusty or unusable. But there was still the usable thing he could use, such as the Space Ring. He did not mind about the Spirit Stones since he could make that much Spirit Stones in a jiffy.

"Let's go back." After inspecting the space ring, he turned back to his spirits and said.

Everyone nodded their head, except Anya, who suddenly came toward him. "Alex, since we have come to this place, why do not we do it with a bang?"

Alex looked at her in confusion.

"We can spread the rumor about your appearance in this place. Of course, we only need to spread the rumor about it in the Makmur Family. This is the perfect chance to annihilate them."

"?!" Alex was surprised, albeit a bit confused. "Why is it only the Makmur Family?"

"Well, we can finish most people from the Makmur Family in this place. And I am sure that Intan would not go out. So, after we kill every single Makmur's that comes to this place, we will then kill the rest in their turf.

"After losing so many powerhouses in this place, we should be able to finish them easily," Anya explained her plan.

She knew about the news in the Southern Kingdom from Ngina and Nicole, especially the information on Makmur Family and Royal Family.

Royal family immediately took off Alex's bounty after they got warned by the first elder. But no one knew how the first elder 'threatened' them. Anyway, he managed to make them take off the bounty on Alex's head.

Of course, it was not like they stopped from trying to kill him. Ngina said the royal family wanted the Makmur Family to weaken Alex's first. After that, they could just kill the entire Makmur Family to hold the possession of Zwaka's inheritance from them.

So, they kept deceiving the Makmur Family so they could use them. They gave Alex's information and whatever they could find. The Makmur Family must have thought of them as a trustworthy partner for this.

Sadly, because Alex never came out of the sect for the past two months, they could not do anything. So, if they spread Alex's information at this particular time, they would take the bite. After all, this place was their turf, not Heavenly Sword Sect.

Although they were afraid of Heavenly Sword Sect, Nemu Forest was a high ranking forest where so many dangerous monsters appeared here and there. They could just say that Alex died in the forest, and they did not know about it.

Of course, they might think about it as a bait to make them go to this place. It was at this time that this place became useful.

Because Maxwell's barrier had disappeared, the mountain made its appearance once again to the outside world. And with this suspicious-looking altar, they could think that this place was so mysterious as well as a treasure trove.

After all, this place was known as a special cultivation place, albeit a difficult one because of the undead. And if they knew about it, Alex should be able to incite their greed once more.

Anya also wanted to make the royal family out. Still, there was another reason other than the royal family waiting for the Makmur Family to move. Ngina had yet to locate Mega's location.

If they wanted to do it, they needed to do it thoroughly. Even though Ngina had been searching for her in these past months, he never saw her again. It was like she was not in the castle.

Anya did not want to take a risk, so she advised him only to get the Makmur Family this time. They would try to kill the royal family after they located Mega.

Anya also explained her plan word to word and the reason why she targeted the Makmur Family first.

"So, we want you to stay and cultivate on this altar. If we managed to convince the Makmur Family with rumor, I am sure they will send someone to check it first. If they see you in this place while cultivating, they will bring the words to the family.

"Then, I am sure they will send men from their family to this place. Of course, if it is only you, then we won't be able to bait many people. So, it won't be only you. I will have Jeanne, Vera, and Greg with him in this place.

"You three shall pose as his bodyguard, trying to protect him while he cultivates in this place. Alex is a Martial Lord, and with the addition of you three, I am sure we can make the Makmur Family mobilize most of their Martial Lords.

"We will kill them in this place. After that, we will move to their family, kill that Intan, and everyone from Makmur Family to make sure there will be no one that will bite us in the future." Anya explained.

Alex nodded. "Then, Nicole will be spreading the rumor. I will leave it to you."

"Of course, leave it to me." She smiled.

…

After getting the order from Anya, Nicole worked very fast.

She used her power of a succubus to control the people around her and spread the rumor inside the Makmur Family.

Basically, almost every high ranking person in the family knew about it, especially the head of Makmur Family, Agus.

When the rumor spread around, he finally convened a meeting. He immediately held a meeting with all elders in the family.

The meeting ended like Anya's prediction. They did not immediately take the bait because the rumor might be false.

Although they decided to seal the rumor first and sent some scouts to investigate the area. After all, even though Alex's bounty had been taken off, they would be sure that Alex did not come to Nemu Forest alone.

Of course, what they found was the scenario that Anya had made. When the scouts arrived inside Nemu Forest. They immediately spread out.

But what they found was something so unbelievable. The supposed land of undead suddenly turned into a beautiful mountain, and at the top of the mountain, they could see an altar.

The scouts did not immediately investigate it, but they carefully made the plan first. When they arrived at the mountain range, they did not find any undead at all.

They were surprised. Because the realm had stood there for a few thousand years, they knew that this place was full of undead, and many records even stated there were around a thousand undead in this place. And all of them were Martial Lords.

Because of their disappearance, it piqued their attention. As those people started investigating the mountain range. They did not immediately go to the altar, but instead, they made sure there was no undead around.

Luckily, Alex and the others had taken care of the corpses so they would not be able to find any dead bodies around. So, after confirming there was no undead around, they finally started climbing the mountain.

They approached the altar with caution. Of course, they saw Alex, Vera, Jeanne, and Greg. Although Alex's group sensed their presence, they acted like they did not know.

The scouts finally returned after they confirmed the situation, and Agus immediately convened another meeting.

"I just got information that the mountain in the undead region suddenly appeared," Agus said.

The elders were immediately shocked when they heard that.

"What?"

"But it should not be possible. After all, the mountain is there because of the special realm inside. It is the same case as a special realm in the Death Forest."

The elders were confused as they kept denying the unbelievable fact. But suddenly, an aged voice was heard from behind.

"That's not right."

They could see a green-haired old man suddenly come to the room. His aged voice felt like he had been through many things in his life, but there was also a trace of slyness.

"Old Family Head."

"Father."

The elders and even Agus immediately greeted him. He was the previous family head before Agus, Ruben. He also heard about the rumor of Alexander Sirius in the Nemu Forest.

Of course, it immediately piqued his interest as he had been informed about what happened to Intan and Putri.

"According to the record, a few thousand years ago, there was truly a mountain at that place. But the mountain suddenly disappeared. And they did not know why but they could only see the mountain again.

"There was a barrier that prevented them from going onward. So, people tried to break in but to no avail. Until one day, undead started appearing around the area. And they could get inside the barrier.

"At that time, they finally could see the mountain again in that area. Of course, most of the people that investigated that region died because of the undead.

"Not long after that, that place became a dangerous zone in the kingdom, and people found out that they could advance much faster in that place. Because of that, they tried to conquer the area.

"Unfortunately, according to the record, there were many resources and people died there. And eventually, the kingdom weakened. It was such a no joke as there were ten thousand Martial Lord level undead inside that place.

"After so many times, trying to reduce their number, we finally managed to reduce it to a thousand. Of course, in the past five centuries, we had lost so much and could not invest in that realm anymore. So, people usually sneaked in and cultivated alone without trying to conquer it.

"Well, I deviate a little bit from the topic. But I assure you, there should be a mountain in the first place. It is concealed inside the barrier this entire time." Ruben explained.

"What? So, is it true?"

"Yeah, since the old family head said that, it must be true."

"So, it is a real mountain!"

The people knew that Ruben was a historical freak despite being a sly fox. So, they immediately believed whatever he said about history.

Ruben then asked, "So, what do you mean by the mountain that appeared?"

Agus answered, "It seems the barrier that prevented us from seeing the inside had collapsed a few days ago."

"What!?"
