Doomsday Summoning Frenzy

"Here we are," Bai said. After speaking, Bai glanced at the watch on his wrist once more, then confirmed without a doubt, "We’ve arrived. The next teleportation will take us to the core location of the dimensional maze. I assume the Rift Device and the enemy will be inside."

Upon hearing this news, the One-Eyed tightened his skin and quietly took a small step back... Tension in his skin was naturally a preparation for battle—one could imagine that even if Kory wasn't inside, there would be an entire ancient demon glory team of level six in there!

The ancient demon glory team that was once at level five was enough to inflict a "skull-crushing" injury on the One-Eyed. A level six ancient demon glory team could be a significant problem for him! Not to mention the 99% chance of lethal traps at the entrance!

The step back was the One-Eyed's way of expressing his attitude to Bai—among the trio and one dog, someone was bound to go in first and bear the first wave of enemy attacks. The One-Eyed was merely here to supervise, not to fight to the death...

Seeing the One-Eyed's small movements from the corner of his eye, Bai gently curled his lips and then turned to give Ye Nan a knowing glance.

“Ajie, you go!”

The four words that came out of Ye Nan's mouth not only stunned the One-Eyed but also caused Zhang Shaojie to change his expression dramatically.

“Boss Ye Nan... this... you should go yourself, right? You have an immortal body…”

Clearly, Zhang Shaojie was no fool, and his words further puzzled the One-Eyed—upon hearing this, the One-Eyed finally reacted to Ye Nan's profession.

It was most suitable for Ye Nan to personally scout for traps and such.

However...

“Just go when I tell you to go!”

Ye Nan's face flushed red, and his eyes were filled with a mix of complex emotions—reluctance, determination, greed, and desire. All of them eventually transformed into anger!

“Go and scout!”

The pressure from the contract between the avenger spirit and the Avenger began to manifest. Under the power of the contract, Zhang Shaojie's face turned pale as he stepped forward, moving step by step toward the cave entrance. In the flow of spiritual energy, Zhang Shaojie repeatedly transmitted questions like “why” to Ye Nan, only to receive even stronger mental pressure in response.

Until Zhang Shaojie's figure suddenly disappeared without a trace, and then, Ye Nan slowly closed his eyes.

...

After a while, Ye Nan's face suddenly turned white, and his body swayed lightly, but when he opened his eyes again, they radiated an unprecedented brilliance.

“Zhang Shaojie is dead, but the traps have all been triggered. There are twenty-three demonic creatures inside, and the plan succeeded; the Rift Device is right in there!”

The mental shock caused by the loss of the Avenger did nothing to mask Ye Nan's excitement. Looking at Ye Nan's excited face and then glancing at Bai, who had a half-smile on his face, a series of question marks rose up in the One-Eyed's mind, only to eventually fall silent.

Soul masters bear similarities to avenger spirits, but Wen Yu and Ye Nan are completely different. At this moment, Zhang Shaojie's death actually made the One-Eyed feel a bit fortunate, thankful to have encountered a good master.

Bai spoke again, “The traps have been triggered and the intelligence gathering is complete. Now, it’s my turn to take action.”

After saying this, Bai slowly clenched his fist and shrugged his shoulders, producing a series of loud cracking sounds from his body.

In the next second, Bai's figure disappeared from the spot!

...

Watching Bai walk straight into the cave, Ye Nan barely managed to suppress his joy at the success of the plan. Rubbing his palms, he wanted to rush into the cave, but suddenly a dog barked behind him.

“Why?”

“Ah?”

Ye Nan turned back, confused, to look at the One-Eyed.

The One-Eyed's face was serious, and a strange gleam shone from his narrowed eyes, “Why? Why did you throw Zhang Shaojie under the bus? Isn’t he your partner? Shouldn't you two have a relationship similar to what I have with the boss?”
