Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor-Chapter 715 - 713: Flies See Feces

At the skull of the Iron Mountain Beast Skeleton, a figure was seated cross-legged.

It was also a skeleton, its skull still intact, clearly marking the spot on the Map Bone, where the Sage’s Skull was recorded to be.

"Why are there so many skeletons here, and why have so many Spirit Crystals perished?"

Su Han looked at the skeletal remains of the saint, lost in thought.

This was a question he had been pondering since his entry, and every time he thought about it, Su Han would feel a familiar sensation, and with it, a severe headache would emerge.

At this moment, the headache attacked him again.

Su Han immediately discarded the thought; his brow furrowed deeply, and after a long sigh, he flashed to the side of the Sage’s Skull.

Like the first sage’s remains, there were no restrictions here, no pressure, and no resistance.

It was supposed to be a delightful revelation, yet Liuyun and the others all showed expressions of disappointment.

Because there were no restrictions, no resistance or pressure, it was evident that aside from the Sage’s Skull, nothing else was left on the saint’s remains.

Expecting to find Pills, shields, or longswords as they had before was clearly wishful thinking here.

"Indeed, our luck can’t always be this good,"

Liuyun muttered, "I am a Mage. Pills are useless to me, and I can’t use a longsword, even if you gave me a shield, with my Martial Path Cultivation, I wouldn’t be able to wield much power... Oh heavens, when will you bless me with a Divine-Level magic wand? Or even a Magic Skill would be great!"

He was just rambling, but suddenly Su Han recalled the Seven-Colored Book they had once fought over at the Gate of Deer Chasing with Jun Luohua and Xueqiao of the Divine Transformation Pavilion.

Su Han had snatched the book, but with so much going on, he hadn’t checked it yet.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered and immediately took it out from his Space Ring to look through it.

Upon seeing the Seven-Colored Book, Liuyun’s eyes lit up, "Sect Master, are you really a lucky star sent by the heavens?"

Not just him, the other Mages including Hong Chen, were also taken aback, and then showed expressions of anticipation.

After flipping through the book for a moment, Su Han smiled at Liuyun, "You’re in luck. It records three Magic Skills, one is Intermediate Magic, one is High-Level Magic, and one is a Forbidden Curse. Which one do you want?"

"I want them all!" Liuyun immediately shouted.

"Me too!"

"Sect Master, I have slaved for the Phoenix Sect, tirelessly and without complaint. Surely, I deserve these skills too!"

"Sect Master, I..."

"Shut the hell up!"

Seeing members of the Purple Night Divine Guard also speak up, Liuyun shouted, "Each one of you, do you not have any idea how I treat you usually? Now that you see Magic Skills, you swarm like flies to dung, daring to compete with me?"

"You’re just like a fly to dung too..." someone muttered.

"Bullshit!"

Liuyun roared, "Am I a fly to dung? I’m a fly to blood!"

Duan Tiansheng and others were dumbfounded, whether it was the Wang Family, Jade Void Palace, or Rainforest Sect, their hierarchy was strictly defined, and no one dared to overstep.

But at the Phoenix Sect, although Liuyun was clearly the Captain of the Purple Night Divine Guard, it seemed like the members of the Purple Night Divine Guard didn’t regard him at all.

Anyone could see that it wasn’t that Liuyun’s Cultivation Base was inadequate; his Cultivation Base was top-grade among the members of the Purple Night Divine Guard, which was why he was able to hold the position of Commander of the Purple Night Divine Guard Regiment.

If it wasn’t a lack of Cultivation Base, then there was only one other reason.

This reason was that the members of the Purple Night Divine Guard were extremely friendly with Liuyun, one could even say they completely saw Liuyun as a friend, and not at all as a superior.

From the conversation between Liuyun and Su Han, it was also evident; although Liuyun was extremely respectful towards Su Han and appeared fervent, they were also friends.

If it were the Jade Void Palace, absolutely no one would dare speak to a superior in such a way, let alone speak like that to the Palace Master of the Jade Void Palace.

"Alright,"

Su Han said with a light chuckle, "This Magic Skill isn’t a Summoner Skill, so the people of the Bright Moon Divine Guard can forget about it, Hong Chen, you too."

Hong Chen had planned to speak up and compete with Liuyun, but upon hearing Su Han’s words, he couldn’t help but show a disappointed expression, uttering an ’oh’ and then dropping the subject.

"As for the Purple Night Divine Guard..."

Su Han continued, "These three skills are essentially one. The Forbidden Curse is the main attack, Intermediate Magic serves as support, and High-Level Magic is for defense, so it’s best for one person to Cultivate them. I’ve decided, these skills will go to Liuyun."

"Oh."

The members of the Purple Night Divine Guard all hung their heads and also let out an ’oh’.

Liuyun, however, was so thrilled that he leaped up and hugged Su Han, nearly planting a big kiss on him.

If it weren’t for Su Han pushing him away with a palm, perhaps the first kiss from a man in both his past and present lifetimes would have taken place right there.

As for all their actions and words, Duan Tiansheng and the others were completely speechless.

For them, the Palace Master of the Jade Void Palace was a mysterious, super-strong individual who was seldom seen even once in a hundred years, whose mere footfall could make the Dragon Martial Continent tremble. Someone as approachable as Su Han simply did not exist...

After tossing the book to Liuyun, amidst Liuyun’s joyful laughter, Su Han approached the Sage’s Bones.

As usual, he directly twisted off the skull, but this time, no Tribulation Thunder appeared, for such Tribulation Thunders were already under Su Han’s control.

Su Han, however, was waiting for the appearance of the Remnant Soul of the skeleton.

Yet, this time, several minutes passed without it appearing.

Even the massive Phantom of the Sage was never seen again.

"What’s going on?"

Su Han furrowed his brow, having a premonition that it wasn’t that the Remnant Soul didn’t want to appear, but rather, that someone might have destroyed it before it could!

Previously, whenever he had obtained a Sage’s Skull, the Remnant Souls had tried to tell him something but were silenced.

Now, it seemed that someone had outright destroyed them before they could even show up.

Su Han suddenly felt that whatever the party had wanted to tell him was of utmost importance to him!

"That final burst of Sage’s Skulls, if obtained, would a Phantom of the Sage appear?" Su Han suddenly turned to look at Duan Tiansheng.

"It won’t."

Duan Tiansheng shook his head, "The Sage’s Skulls from the burst are just skulls, with no sage’s remains; they are rewards for us, so no Phantom of the Sage would appear."
