Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns novel Chapter 188

It took Shaan a year to find a way to pass through the psychedelic array.

Jacob only took a few seconds, which shocked Shaan.

Considering Jacob's outstanding performance, even though he exceeded Shaan's expectations, this outcome was within reason.

Therefore, Shaan was quite calm.

Jacob was going to push open the stone door and walk inside.

Shaan's hair instantly stood on end.

"No!"

Shaan immediately shouted.

In the past, he walked gingerly as if he was treading on thin ice. After opening the stone door, he was injured by the matrix, leaving behind incomparably serious internal injuries.

According to Shaan's estimation, the killing matrix behind the door could pose a threat to peak Divinity Phase cultivators. If they didn't pay attention, they might even die.

Even though Shaan thought that he was on par with Jacob because of Jacob's strength, he still held hope that Jacob would marry Elsa.

Meanwhile, he needed Jacob's help to explore the ancient ruin. So, he valued Jacob a lot.

After Shaan realized it, he immediately shouted.

However, Jacob made a move before that.

The moment Shaan stopped him, Jacob had already opened the stone door.

Immediately, Shaan felt a deadly aura of danger.

"Be careful."

As Shaan shouted, he protected Elsa.

"Don't worry!"

Jacob's voice entered Shaan's and Elsa's ears again.

Shaan rounded his eyes in shock.

Jacob pushed open the stone door.

Around his body, he propped up a grey shield and directly walked in.

Jacob stepped into the stone door.

Suddenly, a change occurred inside the stone gate.

"I thought it was some kind of awesome matrix. It turns out to be the Nine-Level Slaying Matrix!"

Jacob recognized the matrix.

It sounded extremely terrifying.

However, in reality, this was only a popular matrix that was circulating in the universe.

Its might was still acceptable, but it was definitely not a taboo array.

Otherwise, it would not be widely used.

After Jacob stepped into the Nine-Level Slaying Matrix, countless energy arrows shot towards him.

Every arrow contained powerful energy.

It was comparable to an all-out attack from an intermediary Divinity Phase expert.

However, these arrows landed on Jacob's shield and exploded, turning into countless energy fragments.

Jacob's Shield of Chaos did not change at all.

Even though Jacob disdained the Nine-Level Slaying Matrix, it was still a matrix from the immortal realm.

It was widely used, which proved that this matrix had something to stand out.

The matrix would launch one lethal attacks after another. Nine, in total.

Each attack would intensify as it progressed to the next.

In the first-level attack, dozens of energy arrows were equivalent to dozens of intermediary Divinity Phase cultivators. As they shot out at the same time, even a peak Divinity Phase expert would be seriously injured if he was careless.

After it, the second-level attack began.

Jacob's expression did not change.

He walked as if he was idling about a courtyard.

However, this time, Jacob did not allow himself to be attacked.

"Break it!"

Jacob rubbed his fingers and formed a sword. The sword flew in the air. In an instant, countless ferocious rays of sword mana shot out in various directions.

One after another.

Jacob slashed with sword mana, and cracking sounds kept ringing within the Nine-Level Slaying Matrix.

Jacob was very familiar with the matrix.

Through his spiritual will, he located the various jade and matrix flags that had been used to set up the Slaying Matrix and then cut a small portion of them into pieces.

Just now, the psychedelic array was broken.

Now, the Nine-Level Slaying Matrix was destroyed as well.

Outside the stone gate, Shaan rounded his eyes wide in astonishment.

He looked at this scene in disbelief.

In the blink of an eye, the matrix that had troubled Shaan for several years and hurt him deeply had been broken by Jacob.

Shaan even felt that it was somewhat absurd and unreal.

"Grandfather, let's go."

While Shaan was in a daze, Elsa tugged at the corner of Shaan's clothes.

Only then did Shaan come to himself.

After that, he saw Elsa watch Jacob with a strange expression.

Shaan sighed secretly.

Jacob's strength had already exceeded his expectations.

Even a peak Divinity Phase expert might not be able to make it.

Jacob, however, easily accomplished it.

Moreover, he was still so young.

Shaan gave Elsa a look again.

'Silly Elsa, this time, you may be disappointed.'

Shaan's eyes flashed with a hint of depression.
