Chapter 255: Check And Trapped! (1)

On top of the treasure mountain, 

Gordon was sitting cross-legged like a statue, surrounded by a concealment barrier, no one can see him or the barrier. Furthermore, he was completely at the blind spot of the treasure mountain.

Although it seemed Gordon was meditating, it wasn't the case at all, he was monitoring the one-thousand-meter radius around the treasure mountain with a powerful array from his sect. 

This entire treasure mountain was a huge, inescapable trap set by Gordon, especially for Ace. How could he not know just how strange Ace was from his astonishing growth and his mysterious means? 

He would be a fool to leave this bait with no insurance and much less let anyone visit it. 

Gordon used his knowledge and those rune crafters of Flame City to create this Myriad Ghost Eye Array, it was an ancient array that was easy to make and powerful enough to see through any disguise and concealment skill as long as the other person wasn't a Golden River Core Cultivator which was also night impossible. 

Furthermore, Gordon also created a powerful talisman to instantly trap the 'fish' the moment he took the bait. As for those Rune Crafters who helped him create these two powerful runic treasures, he naturally killed them all to keep this secret. 

Gordon knew he can't take the risk of this information leaking, especially the talisman methods, because if those old monsters found out he was in his place and interfering so much, no one will be able to save him.

That's why he was taking this chance to quickly finish the matter with Ace and leave this forsaken place before those high-level lands could enter this place. He would be long gone after 'silently' those who saw him before the safe period of Sky changing border could even start!   

As for why he was so afraid of being found out by royal lands, only he knew the reason. 

After setting up these bait and traps, all Gordon had to do was to wait and keep his eyes open all the time. 

He knew Ace would come like a thief, and he also knew he will not be in his real appearance, and only Ace has the skills of such caliber. This also made things much easier for him because he would be instantly alert by the Ghost eyes array if someone stepped inside the array with unorthodox methods. 

After that, Gordon just had to see the face of that person, and he knew who was who, and he had seen Ace before, so it wasn't a big deal for him to recognize Ace.

However, even after fifty days, there wasn't any trace of Ace, but Gordon wasn't the least bit worried since he knew he would come he just had to wait patiently, and he didn't show up he had another plan ready just in case.   

Although Ace didn't come, he found many 'flies' buzzing around the treasure mountain now and then, all he had to do was to give the order to crush those annoying flies. He wasn't interested in them even in the least bit. 

Today was just like any other day, and Gordon still didn't move from his spot from the start of this plan. 

Abruptly, Gordon's eyes sprang open as a small black cube with four golden different rune symbols on each of its four sides appeared in his. The symbol facing him suddenly lit up, and a transparent screen replaced the golden symbol.

On that palm-size screen appeared a figure in a long hood and black long coat, moving toward the treasure mountain alone while keeping a distance from other people. 

Gordon's eyes shimmered with ecstasy as his lips rose into a sinister smile, "You finally decided to show up after making me wait for all this time. How should I greet you?" mumbled Gordon coldly. 

He didn't even need to see this hooded person's face because the ghost eye array was ringing in alarm like never before which implied his person's disguise was impenetrable and if not for his stealth skill being only subpar, he would've escaped the ghost eye array detection! 

Gordon knew he only had one chance with Myriad Ghost Trapping Talisman, and he didn't want to use it on the wrong person, but he had become surer after he saw the owl symbol on this person's back. 

'Such a disguise even stronger than a Golden River Core Cultivator, he's indeed hiding a huge secret. Pity, he's only using it for petty thieveries and playing around.' Gordon's eyes shimmer with intense greed as he patiently waited for Ace to walk deeper. 

Gordon saw after this hooded person was only five hundred meters away from the treasure mountain, he looked around sneakily as if he was about to move in the empty field. 

However, Gordon's eyes instantly narrowed when this person instantly stopped and turned around and start running like a phantom as if his life was on the line! 

Gordon knew something was amiss, and he didn't dare to wait any longer and flip the cube, which lit another symbol. 

The very next moment thereafter, a black barrier instantly appeared to cover a thousand-meter area around the treasure mountain like a dome. 

Gordon quickly flip the cube again and when he saw the figure was inside the barrier he instantly had a sigh of relief, 'I almost let him escape, how did he see through this array? Well, I should ask him directly.' 

Gordon stood up from his place and looked in the particular direction before saying with a cold smile.

"My Boy, Ace, it's been a while." 

Gordon's thunderous voice rang in the barrier's vacancy, snapping everyone out of their stupor who were abruptly trapped inside the barrier.

The moment Ace heard the system voice, it only took him only a moment to see the target report which come abruptly without even his concern, or it also didn't take any time for completion either. 

However, when Ace saw the level of those two securities measures and system warning, he quickly turned around and run as he pushed his lightning steps to the limit. 

He knew he has been had!
