Enduring the pain, Nameless was about to continue taunting the elder when Jackson suddenly released a burst of negative energy toward him, sending him flying.
When Nameless fell onto the ground, he did not move anymore.
Noticing that, Zeke cursed inwardly, Sh*t! Nameless might have been beaten to death! Just how strong is Jackson? He managed to kill a King Class warrior with just his apparition!
Suddenly, the elder of the Carter family roared.
“Nameless is a servant of my family. Everyone in the Carter family, including the servants, holds a distinguished standing and can't be bullied or humiliated by outsiders! By the orders of the Carter family, anyone who hurts a member of my family will face death!”
Everyone was thrilled to see that the older man regained his sanity again after being triggered by Nameless' death.
After all, he was fiercely protective of his family members.
Facing Zeke, the elder of the Carter family yelled, “Get lost! Let me end this.”
“Thank you, sir!” With that, Zeke left the battleground.
The elder of the Carter family immediately took his place and stood in the center of the battleground.
“I'm sorry I have to do this, my friends, but we can't bow down to a cult! You need to wake up now!”
All of a sudden, he destroyed his own life force.
Sh*t!
Zeke's eyes widened in shock.
Knowing how powerful the impact would be, he hurriedly fled the scene with Nameless and the rest.
Moreover, with the explosion happening in a treacherous region like a valley, even a strong warrior like Zeke did not have the confidence to escape unscathed if he were to remain in the center.
Jackson was infuriated. “You b*stard! How dare you betray Netherworld! Have you ever thought about the consequences? You'll lose your ancestral grave—”
An explosion soon drowned out the rest of his words, and its shockwave also shattered his apparition at once.
By destroying his own life force, the elder of the Carter family had also damaged the life force of the other three elders.
The energy from the simultaneous explosion of four experienced Ultimate Class warriors was enough to wipe out everything.
It tore through the fabric of space and time, and the turbulence sucked in everything, including sunlight.
The place was suddenly plunged into darkness, and the deafening howling of the wind was all that could be heard.
Rumble!
The walls of the mountains on both sides of the canyon collapsed, instantly filling the valley up with debris.
Fortunately, Zeke and the others had escaped in time. Otherwise, they would have been killed from the explosion or falling rocks.
The aftermath of the explosion lasted for more than half an hour before it finally subsided.
The place was in a mess, looking like a scene from doomsday.
Due to their timely escape, Zeke and the others only suffered minor injuries.
After being shattered numerous times in the explosion, the apparition of Jackson was far blurrier and weaker when it appeared again.
It proved that Jackson's physical form had also suffered repercussions, and he was severely injured.
At the same time, the four Ultimate Class elders were lying on top of the ruins, barely alive.
After having their life force damaged and the negative energy removed from their bodies, they had regained their senses and sanity.
Once they caught their breaths, they started lashing out at Jackson one after another. “Netherworld sure is contemptible for having the audacity to manipulate us!”
“Eurasia is the home to hundreds of millions of my people. There's no way we'll allow a despicable thief to steal our Fortuna!”
“We'll send you to your doom today!”
Shaking his head, Jackson let out a sigh. “Alas, you guys are so foolish! If you work for Netherworld, we can help you advance into the God rank and higher! But now that you've betrayed us, we won't let you off the hook easily! I'm officially informing you that your ancestors will all become forlorn wandering spirits, and your bloodline will end! None of your descendants will be able to bear children!”
