"Harry River, how did you know this secret!"

Pranay Martinez no longer attempted to strike.

He drew his sword and had already unlocked the seal of the Golden Bear.

Meanwhile, Jesse River recklessly charged forward, crashing his body against the protruding spikes, clearly aware of this secret.

Now, he has awakened the Golden Bear.

This is both a tragedy and an opportunity.

Losing freedom, gaining immensely terrifying power!

The current Jesse River has become the heart of the Golden Bear.

He can control all the power of the Golden Bear.

And Pranay Martinez is inside the Golden Bear.

Inside the awakened Golden Bear.

Without the sword to suppress, he stands no chance in this world.

Every breath of air, every bit of spiritual power, belongs to the Golden Bear.

All he can do is escape quickly!

But what bewildered Pranay Martinez was that no one knew this secret.

When Skilid City disappeared, he paid some price to ambush and seal the Golden Bear.

Using it as a shelter.

Beneath this area lies an abundant source of spiritual power.

With these sources, the Golden Bear can remain immortal, continuously nurturing Golden Bears.

The cave where the Golden Bear sleeps is the womb of this mother bear.

The spikes piercing Jesse River's body formed a kind of bond.

Integrating him with the bear.

Success!

Just as he had predicted, success!

To be cautious, Jesse River had previously sent Julius Reed a scheduled message.

He is a cautious person.

Jesse River gained a lot of power in this area, and with this power, he deduced two things.

First, he could control the Golden Bear.

Second, in this area, Pranay Martinez couldn't kill him.

"Tell me how you knew these things," Pranay Martinez narrowed his eyes and stared at him. "Very few people know this secret. And the method to control the Golden Bear, I haven't disclosed it to anyone!"

Strange!

As smart as him, he couldn't figure it out.

But Jesse River didn't answer.

Why should he answer?

In an instant!

The small mountain trembled!

The power within the Golden Bear began to squeeze Pranay Martinez!

The previously slender red lines began to materialize and thicken!

Scarlet power started forming within the area.

"Today's grudge, I'll remember! But listen well, Harry River, you're the first to dare plot against me so perfectly. But this isn't over; I'll be back!"

Pranay Martinez's figure gradually became blurry.

With the Golden Bear's revival, he couldn't exit through the nostril or mouth.

As for the anus...

Forget it.

Not being Old Eight, he couldn't swallow this...

A king Golden Bear from ancient times, Pranay Martinez dared not underestimate.

This was Pruitt Wilde's most relied upon existence back then!

Ordinary people couldn't possibly resist.

"Pranay Martinez, Mountain Lord, since you don't want me to leave, I won't bother. Listen well, I, Jesse River, am also a person who holds grudges. I'll remember everything you've done to me!" Jesse River closed his eyes, and those red lines flew towards Pranay Martinez like crazy!

They seemed ready to bind him or suspend him!

But Pranay Martinez's figure became even more ethereal.

Finally.

When those lines trapped him...

Pranay Martinez disappeared.

"Phew..."

Jesse River let out a long breath.

Bean-sized sweat droplets kept falling from his body.

His body was weakened to the extreme!

This wasn't his weakness, but the ancient king Golden Bear's weakness!

Very weak upon awakening!

Even with the spiritual power spring below, an animal that's been unconscious for thousands of years naturally needs recovery.

The same goes for humans.

Now Jesse River is the king Golden Bear, the king Golden Bear is Jesse River!

One's glory is the other's, one's loss is the other's!

If Pranay Martinez persists in striking, Jesse River would surely die.

But fate, that's how it is.

Pranay Martinez, blinded by intelligence, overlooked this point.

Just as in the prediction, upon being attacked, Pranay Martinez chose to leave.

This matched his secretive nature.

On the snow outside the small mountain.

Pranay Martinez was panting heavily.

As if recalling something, he gritted his teeth and looked back at the small mountain. "Harry River, you've fooled me! You're so weak now that I could kill you with one strike!"

However.

It's too late.

The Golden Bear appeared asleep but was actually recovering.

At this point, he had no chance of entering the Golden Bear's body again.

The outer skin of an ordinary Golden Bear is already incredibly tough, let alone a king Golden Bear?

"Ah!"

Clang!

Pranay Martinez swung his sword!

Snowflakes filled the sky!

But suddenly, he sensed something peculiar.

Pranay Martinez turned around to see a group of people watching him.

One person seemed familiar.

"Pranay Martinez! What are you doing here? Mountain Lord, what a coincidence!" Julius Reed greeted while wearing the Whitaker Dog mask. "Did I recognize you correctly? A friend introduced you to me."

He knew the Pope hadn't fully recognized him.

But with this greeting, the Pope responded.

"Orson Martinez?"

He narrowed his eyes, his cloak fluttering without wind!

The surrounding snow quickly melted, slowly gathering on the ground into an ice sword!

"Shadow Kims." Pranay Martinez raised his head, carefully observing the elder before him.

This aura could not be mistaken!

"Old friend, how unexpected that we meet here." The Pope, or Underworld Emperor Yin Jian, coldly laughed, "Funny how life works! We've lived for thousands of years, aware of each other's existence, yet never found each other's tracks. Today, we finally meet."

The ice sword beneath his feet began to tremble, ready to suspend at any moment.

"Yin Jian, indeed it is quite the coincidence." Pranay Martinez nodded, not making any moves, merely standing with his hands behind his back on the snow.

Exchanging glances from a distance with the Underworld Emperor.

"Perhaps we should have a drink and chat? You know we share a common goal, eliminating the Western Emperor." Pranay Martinez smiled slightly.

"You surely remember the Western Emperor trying to erase us back then?"

Sure enough.

Yin Jian's eyes showed some change at these words.

His strength had been compromised; there was no chance facing Pranay Martinez.

If a fight broke out, he'd be at a disadvantage.

All blamed on that cursed Western Emperor!

Back then, to survive, the Underworld Emperor paid a hefty price!

For thousands of years, he hasn't returned to his peak.

"In that case, let's discuss drinking later. Today, I've come only to save someone in the mountains." Yin Jian smiled, "We recognize boundaries; you should leave. We'll meet again someday."

Upon hearing this, Pranay Martinez was relieved.

Leaving the Golden Bear's body had drained too much power!

This Strange Skill's teleportation severely exhausted physical strength.

But suddenly.

Julius Reed pointed at Pranay Martinez's leg: "Mr. Mountain Lord, my good friend mentioned you. But why is your leg trembling when you walk? Are you injured?"
