Owen Bertram was surprised, "Old Predecessor, you're leaving already?"
Santa's face was engulfed in flames, disguising any possible facial expressions from Owen. He hesitated before saying, "I can't return empty-handed. I need to ask you for something."
Owen understood, "The North Extreme?"
Ghostly Ted controlled the Nightmare Sect with the power of the Divine Lord. After the depletion of energy for countless years, the Divine Lord's power has dropped significantly. So the layout in Beast'ear Mountain was actually Ghostly Ted's secret support to the Divine Lord with the "North Extreme", enabling him to confront the wonders of the Da Luo World Gate and Owen for so long, buying him time to take control of the Da Luo World Gate.
When the Divine Lord summoned the Earth Veins, the North Extreme was hidden underground at Beast'ear Mountain supporting him.
