Yun landed steadily on the ground. As soon as his feet touched the sand, he immediately became alert. After all, this was a game world, full of hidden dangers, especially those ferocious monsters. He didn't want to die tragically at the hands of these minions before he could even face the powerful boss.

However, Yun was somewhat relieved to find that there seemed to be no trace of any monsters around. Looking around, there was only a vast desert, yellow sand filling the sky and silence.

"Zovaar, I think we can have a good talk." Yun took a deep breath, thrust the Frostmourne in his hand into the sand in front of him, then straightened up and spoke to the void.

"What?" Zoval's voice came from the void, calm and indifferent.

Yun was silent for a moment, then lowered his voice, as if afraid of being overheard, and asked the system: "System, how can I release Zoval?"

The system's response was unusually concise and clear: "Zovaar's location is marked on the map. You just need to use enough energy to draw it out."

Yun was delighted and immediately looked at Frostmourne. Sure enough, in an inconspicuous place on the sword, there was a faint light flickering.

Yun couldn't help but sigh, this system is really convenient! Without its help, I would probably have to spend a lot of time and energy to figure out how to release Zoval.

With the system's instructions, Yun mobilized his own powerful energy without hesitation, as if controlling a sophisticated instrument, and accurately and decisively pulled the small ball of energy out directly from a mysterious place.

"You..." Seeing this, Zoval was about to utter a word of doubt, but when the words reached his lips, they were suddenly blocked by something and stopped abruptly.

Yun quietly watched the ball of energy being pulled out, and saw that the moment it was freed from its restraints, it expanded rapidly at an astonishing speed, like a spring that had been compressed to the extreme and suddenly released.

As the energy continued to expand, it gradually revealed the shape of a person, as if born from nothingness.

"You're letting me out now?" Zoval shook his hand which had just regained its freedom, with an expression of disbelief on his face, his tone full of surprise and confusion.

Yun's lips curled up slightly, revealing a confident smile. He replied, "Why should I be afraid of you now? Since you have already completed what you said, then I should naturally keep my promise and release you."

Zoval stared intently at Yun, as if trying to see through his exterior to his true inner thoughts. After a moment, he suddenly said, "Won't you listen to your companion's advice? He absolutely doesn't want you to let me out."

Yun frowned slightly, but quickly regained his composure. He met Zoval's gaze without flinching and sneered, "What? Do you want to be sealed in again? Although it may take some effort to seal you in again this time, and we may even have to fight, I believe that the ultimate winner will still be me. I still have the ability to seal you back in."

As he said this, Yun's face revealed an undisguised look of disdain, as if he was completely unconcealed by Zoval's threat.

"You have indeed grown, not only in strength, but also in mentality." Zoval said with emotion, his eyes fell on Yun, as if he could see the changes in his heart through his appearance.

Yun smiled slightly and responded, "Perhaps I've been through so much that I've had to grow up."

Zoval nodded and then asked, "So what are you going to do now? Go back to the Abyss?"

Yun was silent for a moment, pondering the question. Finally, he looked up at Zoval and said, "I haven't made up my mind yet. The Maw is no longer a simple place for me."

Zoval seemed to understand Yun's thoughts and said, "So, what do you want me to do?"

Yun answered without hesitation, "Of course, stay by my side. Although your strength may not be as good as mine, you are an Eternal after all, and you know more about many things than I do. With you by my side, you may be able to give me some help and advice."

Zoval looked a bit embarrassed after hearing Yun's words. He explained, "But I've never been to Zaremetis. What I just told you was only told to us a long time ago. It took me a long time to recall it."

Yun waved his hand and smiled, "It's okay." Yun didn't care whether Zoval had truly forgotten. What mattered was that Zoval's words at least showed an attitude, an attitude that he didn't want to be an enemy of Yun. For Yun, that was enough.

Zoval felt a little relieved after hearing Yun's words. He knew Yun understood what he meant, and now the two of them had reached a cooperative relationship, at least much more stable than before.

"Well, I also want to take a look. Where is the other dimensional portal hidden?" Zoval raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile. He then turned his gaze to Yun and nodded slightly to show his agreement.

Seeing this, Yun felt relieved and asked quickly, "My friends seem to be still staying in Hellandus. I wonder if you can summon them here?" There was a hint of urgency in his voice, and he was obviously very worried about the safety of his friends.

Upon hearing this, Zoval responded readily, "That's certainly not a problem. Just wait a moment." After that, he clasped his hands together and muttered something, as if he was casting some mysterious spell.

Yun didn't pay attention to Zoval's specific movements, but instead nervously watched his surroundings, fearing a sudden counterattack from Hellendus. However, just as he was lost in thought, he saw four souls sprinting towards him like meteors, arriving in the blink of an eye.

"Master Yun, how are you?"

"I knew you were fine!"

As soon as Sintiale and Aaron appeared, they shouted in unison, their faces full of concern.

Seeing this, Yun felt relieved. He smiled and responded, "It's okay, it's okay. Let's go now." Before he finished speaking, he stepped forward. His steps seemed a little hurried, as if he was still afraid of Helandus behind him.

"It's all desert here, do you know where it is?" Zoval asked suspiciously after walking for a while. After all, there weren't even any road signs here, so how did Yun find the way?

"I know, let's go." Yun responded without turning back, walking quickly ahead. He wasn't sure what to do, but since the system had given him the instructions, he had no choice but to move forward.

After walking for a while, the system suddenly prompted that there was a teleporter under the sand. Without saying anything, Yun immediately started digging.

"Under here?" Seeing this, Zoval became even more curious and couldn't help but move forward to take a look.

"Yeah, it should be down there," Yun replied casually, his head buried in his work. He didn't have the energy to explain to Zoval right now; he just wanted to dig out the teleporter as quickly as possible.

"I'll go down and check it out." Sintiale volunteered.

"Don't go!" Yun shouted hurriedly, "We don't know what the situation is below, it's too dangerous! Let's dig it out first." He didn't want to let Sintiale take risks. If something unexpected happened, he couldn't afford it.

As expected, as they continued to dig deeper, a triangular stone tablet gradually emerged. This tablet was exactly the same as the one in the game, but the difference was that the tablet in the game was located on the edge of a cliff, and could be reached by teleporting to the Holy Tomb of the Firstborn, but here was a vast desert, which surprised Yun.

"This thing is really weird!" Zoval circled the beacon several times, examining it carefully. "There are no runes on it, nor any energy fluctuations. What on earth is this?" He muttered doubtfully.

Yun didn't have time to consider Zoval's doubts. Without hesitation, he extended his right hand and pressed directly on the signpost. Instantly, something astonishing happened—Yun's body began to shrink and became incredibly bright, as if he were about to be swallowed by the light.

"Yun, what's wrong with you?" Sindyale was the first to notice something unusual, and she shouted in shock.

"What on earth is going on?" Zoval was also stunned by the scene before him. He was completely at a loss as he had never encountered such a situation before!

"Yun!" Aaron Ye was also extremely anxious. He called out Yun's name anxiously, his voice revealing his extreme concern for Yun's safety.

Yun was stunned by the sudden transformation of his body, but surprisingly, aside from being unable to speak, he felt no discomfort. Just as Yun was carefully experiencing this transformation, the golden body, as if propelled by an invisible force, soared into the air and sped towards the east like lightning.

Seeing this, the other people, since they were all in spiritual state, naturally flew up without hesitation and chased after the golden light.

This time, the flight distance was exceptionally long. Although they were spirits, possessing speed and endurance beyond that of ordinary humans, maintaining such an astonishing speed was still a huge challenge for them. Fortunately, however, the golden light finally came to a slow stop and landed steadily at another triangular landmark.

As the light gradually dissipated, Yun's body gradually returned to its original state.

"How is it? How do you feel? Is there anything wrong?" Zoval was the first to fly to Yun's side anxiously, and then looked Yun up and down carefully as if he were examining a precious treasure, fearing that he might make a mistake.

Yun calmed down and replied, "I don't think there's anything wrong, but this change is indeed a bit strange."

"This is not just weird! You suddenly became like that and almost scared us to death!" Sindyale rushed over breathlessly and said with a face full of complaints.

"Yun, you really should have told us about this earlier. It's really scary that you suddenly underwent such a strange change!" Aaron also complained.

"I didn't expect it to be like this, but this is great, nothing happened! Let's go quickly, maybe we can go back if we walk a little further!" Some people said excitedly.

Zoval looked around curiously. When he saw the ground covered with green grass and a clear path leading into the distance, he became even more excited. "Wow, is this the legendary Holy Tomb of the Firstborn?"

Yun quickly corrected him, "Don't be too happy too soon, this is just the outskirts of the Holy Tomb of the First Born." As he spoke, he also noticed the path to the dimensional portal given by the system.

"Oh, I see." Zoval responded, but his eyes were never idle. He kept looking around, as if he was full of curiosity about everything around him, just like a curious baby.

Yun followed the system's instructions and walked forward. Before long, they passed through a series of hexagonal gates, and the scene inside gradually unfolded before their eyes—a huge hexagonal square loomed before them.

"This square is so big!" Zoval exclaimed.

Yun nodded, but at the same time, he began to wonder: The system said there was a passage behind the square that led to a dimensional portal, but this square didn't look simple. It felt like there was something hidden underneath...

"Is that the passage behind?" Zoval pointed at the entrance of the passage in the distance with a look of suspicion on his face, as if he was full of doubts and vigilance about it.

Seeing this, Yun, who was standing next to him, nodded quickly and replied, "Yes, it's that passage."

Upon hearing this, Zoval frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "I'll go and take a look at the situation first." Before he finished speaking, he saw his figure flash, soaring into the air like a bird, and rushing straight towards the passage.

However, just as Zoval took off, Sintiyalai beside him suddenly looked worried and said to Yun anxiously, "Sir, if you let him fly over alone like this, aren't you worried that he might play some tricks ahead?"

Yun raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident smile, and replied nonchalantly: "Don't worry, it'll be fine."

However, before he could finish his words, something unexpected happened - a round metal object suddenly appeared in the center of the square without any warning, like a giant beast that had been dormant for a long time, suddenly opening its bloody mouth.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling column of energy shot out like lightning, bombarding Zoval who was flying in the air.

The sudden attack was so fast that Zoval didn't even have time to react before he was hit hard by the energy column.

There was a loud "bang" and Zoval fell straight down from mid-air like a kite with a broken string.

"Oh my god!" Yun couldn't help but scream at the sight, thinking to himself that this was not going to happen. Without giving it any time to think, he immediately shot off like an arrow, sprinting towards the direction where Zoval had fallen, muttering, "No matter what, Zoval can't die here!"
