Ares, Alfred, and the others also began to laugh at Jackson.
What a cheek! How dare they laugh at me! Such insolence and arrogance!
Infuriated by their behavior, Jackson retorted, “It's not that I've never shown myself, but those who have seen me
all died in my hands!”
“So f*cking boastful! Did you kill your wife and kids after they've seen you?” Ares mocked.
Jackson choked with fury. “I-”
“Show yourself. No matter what, one of us has to die today!” Zeke declared.
“Fine! Since you insist on digging your own grave, I'll give you what you want,” Jackson replied indifferently.
With that, a large silhouette about twenty-four meters tall slowly loomed above the valley, blocking the sky and sun.
There was no doubt that it was just an apparition, not Jackson's true form.

“Shut up! I'm thousands of miles away, so of course, I can't show up to see you!” Jackson retorted.
What?
Everyone was astounded yet impressed by his ability to control his apparition thousands of miles away from where
he was.
Needless to say, the illusion techniques of Netherworld were profound.
Zeke was not very interested in a mere apparition, shattering it with the energy shot out of his sword.
“Trying to stop us with an apparition is wishful thinking!”
The apparition reformed soon after being shattered.
“Tch, I don't need to be physically present to kill all of you. Answer me. Did the messenger I sent, Willow Hanks,
relay my orders to you?”
“She's left the dark side and returned to Eurasia!” Zeke replied.
Jackson snapped, “What a load of nonsense! My people are all loyal to Netherworld and thus would never be
traitors. It seems that you've killed my messenger because you turned down our offer to join us. Well, then, I don't
need to hold back anymore. It's time for you lots to meet your end! Gentlemen, reveal yourselves now!”
Four elderly men slowly appeared above the valley around them.
Everyone was shocked to see the four old men, who turned out to be the four Ultimate Class elders from the Four
Hidden Sects.
After all, they expected the elders to meet their end after falling into the abyss with Zeke that day.
Yet, to their horror, the four elders survived and even joined Netherworld.
Moreover, the energy they exuded was far stronger than before.
It seemed that Netherworld had used a special method to enhance their abilities.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter glancing at Zeke, the four elders slowly closed their eyes and ignored him.
The way they moved was akin to robots.
Jackson then spoke coldly. “Zeke Williams, I know you're an invincible Ultimate Class warrior and that individually,
the four Ultimate Class elders' combat prowess is no match for you. But what if they join forces? Do you still think
you have a chance of survival? I'm giving you one last chance—surrender and join Netherworld. If you do, I'll still
permit you to be the Ninth Commander.”
However, Jackson's taunt fell on deaf ears as Zeke ignored him and shot the four Ultimate Class elders a mocking
look.
“As the Ultimate Class elders of the Four Hidden Sects, the four of you were revered by everyone else and held a
high status, yet, you have now stooped so low as to be subservient to others. You're a disgrace to the Four Hidden
Sects!”
The four Ultimate Class elders neither responded to Zeke nor opened their eyes, but there was a slight twitching at
the corners of their mouths.
What Zeke said had hit a nerve in them.
