Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

The Night View Island was no longer peaceful these days.

This was largely because the Glede Demon race had spread the news that the Red Demon race were sacrificing members of many races in exchange for the Arcana.

This had caused so much panic among the weaker races that they had abandoned their own territories and formed alliances.

Bacchus took advantage of the situation and extended an olive branch to these races. He won them over by claiming he could protect them. Then he asked them to gather in the land of the Glede Demon race to fight against the Red Demon race.

Of course, his protection would not come for free. These races had to hand over all the Arcana they had.

With this strategy, the Glede Demons accumulated a lot of Arcana in a short time, all while amassing the other races to their side.

This would increase the chances of victory for the Glede Demons should the Red Demons launch an attack.

Bacchus handed over all the Arcana he had plundered to Zen and escorted him and his group to the Ghost Mountain.

He wanted three Holy Stones in return.

The Holy Stones were great threats to the Treacherous Beings. Bacchus had to get them at all costs.

Zen agreed to his request.

Previously, he had killed three stone men in the underground cave and obtained three Holy Stones the size of beans. He gave them to the Snake Goddess, Fuxi and Eastern Emperor Taiyi, and their own three stones, the size of grains of sand, were given to Bacchus.

Soon, daylight broke on the Night View Island.

The dawn found Zen and his companions climbing one last mountain with the Glede Demons before arriving at the Ghost Mountain.

As they neared the peak however, they noted something curious. Though there was nothing ahead to block their vision, they couldn't see the Ghost Mountain anywhere in the distance.

The empty expanse ahead left Zen and the others stumped. Both Decker and the Glede Demons said that the Ghost Mountain was here, however. They couldn't possibly be mistaken.

It was only when they crossed the peak line that a huge black shadow came into view.

It was a huge triangular mountain!

As Decker had said, the Ghost Mountain was protected by a special space rule. It could only be seen after they crossed the peak line.
