Ace quickly came back and expect a large movement from the golem army, but to his stupefaction, those golems were remained undisturbed.

Truth to be told, he expected those golems or whatever controlling them would send some kind of scouts to investigate the stone golem leader's death, but it appeared that golem leader was just irrelevant. He even bothered to destroy the evidence to hinder the enemy.

Frustrated, Ace quietly returned to his new hiding spot and waited for the cycle of one week to complete. Now his only hope was the proprietor of this golem army might react when the group did not come back when it supposed it.

But Ace didn't sit idly this week, he eliminated more stone golems groups to make the final disturbance much bigger and complete his remaining EXP while he's at it.

In this entire week, he only got the chance to eliminate five more stone golem groups, numbers exceeding 700. He didn't dare to go after speed golems, he knew they were out of his league with that speed golem leader present.

====

[EXP: 100 Million/100 Million]

{Elemental Orb:0/1}

Ace looked at the complete hundred million with elation, he managed to complete a hundred million on the fourth stone golems group.

But to his distress and disappointment, he won't get any more EXP after killing golems anymore after his initial target of 100M was complete nor the EXP accumulated like before in the Extra EXP bar.

After questioning about it from the system, he finally knows the Extra EXP wasn't available anymore after he opened the hidden part of the Heavenly Crystal Body Technique of Heaven Stealer Cultivation Technique!

Albeit his heart bleed after hearing this, he could do nothing but condemned the system for being black-hearted and evil.

Today, Ace was eagerly awaiting to see what going to happen because the time of the golem group interchange was drawing near.

As just he was becoming agitated, a group of speed golems move, led by the speed golem leader, toward the same position where the interchange happened last week.

Ace was standing just a few meters away from the mist wall, ready to escape at any given moment if anything goes awry.

The new Speed Golems group naturally move until they were five hundred meters away from the mist wall. The speed golem leader abruptly stopped, and those golems followed him as well.

They keep standing there like statues when Speed Golem Leader emerald eyes twinkle mysteriously. Ace scrutinized this reaction.

However, nothing like what Ace imagine happened because the speed golem leader simply turned around to lead back the speed golem group back to its former position. It didn't leave for patrol!

'Damn it all!' Ace cursed after seeing this unexpected reaction and sulked.

But he didn't give up, 'I don't believe you won't do anything after more golem groups gone missing!' He waited patiently.

Two-day later, the same thing happened again when the stone golem group won't show up and the speed golem group had to return.

This week, this same thing happened a total of five times when a golem group didn't show up and the golems didn't leave for the patrol because of this phenomenon.

Again, the day come when Ace first slaughter the first group two weeks ago and Ace was eagerly waiting to see what going to happen now. He was deeply looking at those golems standing there like sculptures.

They just won't break the army formation around the volcano no matter what!

The moment of truth finally arrived, this time no golem group moved toward the mist wall. Ace was extremely vexed seeing this, and he was at the limit of his patient. He was on the verge of giving up and returning if nothing happened today.

Ace thought he might as well complete his mission first and then find another elemental orb to break through in the Qi river realm before coming back with stronger skills.

Since he now knows where the earth orb was, he can always retrieve it back later. But the feeling of coming so close to the elemental orb and then didn't able to retrieve it was nasty.

It was another wake-up call for Ace; just how weak and insignificant his prowess was in front of these mysterious beings.

"Gawwwrrrrr…"

Suddenly, Ace heard a howled that almost shake his soul core!

'A soul cultivator being?!' Ace quickly looked in the direction from where this howl came from, and he was shocked because it was none other than one of the white stone golem leaders, who never made a move before!

He never would have thought those white stone golems were soul cultivation beings and their leaders were all in the Soul river core realm.

One can easily tell just how powerful this soul river core golems were, just now this howl was some kind of command, not a soul attack. But Ace still got affected by it, despite standing a mile away from the Soul Golem.

He didn't dare to imagine what might've happened if that soul golem attacked him.

'This is not my cup of tea.' Ace thought bitterly.

That soul golems' army changed everything now, he can't afford to tackle with Soul River Core beings no matter how daring he was. Even a peak Qi river golem leader can detect him easily if he was close enough, much less that soul golems' army. The weakest of them possess peak Soul river stage cultivation!

Ace knew the reaction he was eagerly waiting for was finally here. He was planning to leave early before it was too late.

But he still stood there to observe for a moment what going to happen before leaving. He waited for this for two weeks, he will not leave just like that.

Ace's eyes constricted while his brows knitted tightly, he saw after the soul golem leader howl; hundreds of stone golem leaders and hundreds of speed golems leader followed by thousands of golems moved toward that soul golem leader!

This opened a sizeable gap in their seal-tight formation!

'A chance!' His heart raced as his blood pumped like crazy in his veins. He knew this was one in a million chance he was waiting for all this time.

He might not get this chance again easily, after clenching his teeth, Ace moved!

Not outside the mist wall, Ace moved toward the gap while using his lighting step and breathless stealth at full capacity!

The soul golems regiment was just three hundred meters away right from the gap, the closest stone golem leader was five hundred meters away toward the left of the gap.

Ace moved with extreme perception and keep as much distance as he could from soul golems. After half a minute, Ace finally enters the gap right between thousands of golems!

With a wildly beating heart, his bloodshot eyes were right at the end of the golem army. Nothing was between him and the volcano anymore.

To his ecstasy, those golems seemed too busy while moving that they didn't notice him taking the advantage of the sudden gap. He knew he was close to achieving his goal and no one could stop him.

He was even prepared to use the invisible bead if anything goes wrong, he won't hesitate to use it.

But nothing happened, and he easily crossed the golem army!

Ace didn't dare to stop and look behind, he continued to climb toward the maw of the steaming volcano.

But his heart palpitated when he was not even halfway toward the volcano mouth, and he quickly changed the direction. The volcano was thousands of meters tall and wide, so Ace has quite a big surface to move around.

Ace looked in the direction where he was moving and was shocked by the sight.

Thousands of golems appeared from the steaming maw of the volcano and, followed by golem leaders, they descended the volcano right toward the opened gap.

The new batch of golems quickly close the gap left by the old golems. As for those golems who made that gap; followed a soul golem leader and his group of soul golems closely and leave the dome wall!

They were going to hunt down the person who killed their brothers.

All this ordeal happened within a few minutes.

Ace was sweating profoundly as he looked at the large army leaving the dome and then look at the army facing the other side with no gap to escape from.

He was now really like a rat in a cage, He can't go back now even if he wanted to, those golems would tear him into pieces if they found out an intruder stepping into their sacred land.

All he can do now was to move forward. But after witnessing the appearance of thousands of golems, he was even more fearful of going up.

What if the entire volcano was filled with golems? There would be no place left for him to cry then.

'There might be some kind of limit this volcano could produce the golems, right? Or why they took two weeks to send reinforcements, right?'

Ace cheered himself just to calm down and with shaking breath and flickering determined moved toward the steaming volcano mouth!
