Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor-Chapter 716 - 714: Land of Eruption!

"So it is..."

Su Han narrowed his eyes. He had originally thought that during the final eruption, the sage’s skull obtained would also have a phantom of the sage appearing, and surely with it, a remnant soul would emerge.

With numerous remnant souls appearing together, Su Han would have to preserve at least one at all costs.

However, listening to Duan Tiansheng’s words, it seemed unlikely that any more remnant souls would appear. The confusion that had been within him now seemed likely to remain unsolved until at least 3,000 years later, when the ancient battlefield would open again.

"Let it be..."

Su Han took a deep breath and silently thought, "Not knowing might be for the best. With my current strength, even if I knew, I fear it would be a curse. If I still don’t know after three thousand years, then I will find a way to enter this place again and uncover the truth."

"Boom!"

Just as he reached this thought, far in the distance, an astonishing light pillar suddenly shot up into the void.

This light pillar was like a column connecting heaven and earth, reaching straight into the sky. Even from this standpoint, it was at least dozens of miles wide. The dazzling light, like a golden rod, made people squint their eyes involuntarily.

"It’s going to erupt!"

Duan Tiansheng’s eyes lit up upon seeing the light pillar. "According to the predecessors in the palace, such a light pillar signifies the time of eruption. This is the eve of the eruption. Normally, right after such a pillar appears, the final great eruption will fully arrive within a day’s time. Those sage’s skulls and supreme treasures are all within these light pillars!"

"Look, what is that?!"

Right after Duan Tiansheng’s words fell, a black light suddenly rose from below the light pillar.

The black light wasn’t big and compared to the light pillar, it was just a dot, practically invisible from this distance.

"It’s definitely a supreme treasure!"

Duan Tiansheng breathed fiercely. "During an eruption, only two items appear as normal: one is bones, and the other is sage’s skulls, and both are stark white. Once a third color appears, it’s definitely a supreme treasure!"

"Really?"

Hong Chen was stunned, then quickly said, "Sect Master, shall we go over and have a look now? Liuyun has gained a skill, but I still haven’t got anything."

"Please, you think you have my kind of luck? Getting a forbidden curse without any effort? Hahaha..."

Liuyun laughed uproariously, his detestable demeanor almost drove Hong Chen and the others to smash a brick on his head.

"Let’s go."

Su Han nodded and said, "We don’t know the distance to the land of eruption from here. One day’s time doesn’t seem much; however, from what we see now, it should be enough."

As they set off, around the light pillar, several black dots were rising.

Those were all figures of people!

These figures were densely packed, easily numbering thousands. Now they all surrounded the light pillar, or rather, the area around the black dot within it.

Clearly, they were all here to compete for the black dot. Su Han and the others couldn’t see clearly, but surely those people must know what the black dot truly was.

And judging by the simultaneous ascent of so many people, it was evident; Duan Tiansheng was right—the black dot was neither bones nor sage’s skull, but a supreme treasure!

Their appearance made Hong Chen even more anxious, and his speed also increased significantly.

And because of acquiring the third Sage’s Skull, Su Han and the others saw their Illusionary strength rise once again.

No longer needing to resort to the Three Blood Transformations, Su Han’s Illusionary Martial Path Cultivation and Flesh Cultivation both reached the peak of the Dragon God Realm.

This was the true peak of the Dragon God Realm, not the late peak of the Dragon God Realm!

At the same time, due to Su Han’s breakthrough, this Illusionary strength had already surpassed the level of the peak of the Dragon God Realm, directly reaching the Pseudo-Emperor Realm!

However, if Su Han dispersed his aura, to bystanders, the Illusionary strength would still appear to be at the peak of the Dragon God Realm, because this place restricted the Pseudo-Emperor Realm. Even if one truly possessed the strength of the Pseudo-Emperor Realm, their aura would be suppressed to remain within the peak of the Dragon God Realm.

As for Liuyun and the others, they too received tremendous upgrades, with almost all of their Mage Cultivation reaching the level of Seventh-Order Grand Magicians, among them, Liuyun and Hong Chen, had already broken through to be First Order Archmages.

Those following the Martial Path had all reached the peak level of the Dragon God Realm without exception, including Duan Tiansheng and others!

Combining Phoenix Sect and Duan Tiansheng’s group, there were over six hundred people, and all of their Illusionary strengths were at the peak of the Dragon God Realm. Just with these six hundred people, they could battle other forces of six thousand without falling behind!

If they were to meet with other members of the Phoenix Sect again, due to the increase in numbers, their strength would rise further, and by then, they could be called invincible.

...

Soon, half a day had passed.

Along the way, they encountered many forces, all hurrying towards the Land of Eruption.

Among them, they had encountered people from the Immortal Dao Court.

Because of the matter at Mountain of the Divine Medicine, the Immortal Dao Court and Phoenix Sect were implacable foes, but at this moment passing by each other, neither side engaged in combat.

This was not the time to make a move, it was just a waste of time. The real battle would come during that final massive eruption.

In such a rush, another four hours had passed.

Finally, Su Han and the others could see the Land of Eruption.

The area used to be a flat ground, but at this point, it was full of pits and holes, forming a land of hollows.

At first glance, the countless small and large holes numbered in the tens of thousands. Around these holes were pieces of open ground, and nearly all of these spaces had already been filled by people from various Grand Powers.

Nearly all forces that entered the Ancient Battlefield had now gathered here, over two thousand powers. Even though some had yet to arrive, there were already more than two thousand, and despite the skirmishes among them during this period, at least each force had about eight or nine hundred people left, and some had not lost anyone at all.

Going by an average of eight hundred people per power, for two thousand powers, that made a colossal sum of one million six hundred thousand people!

One million six hundred thousand people, gathered in this area at the same time, made it seem like a swarm of locusts, forming a shocking dark cloud.

The major powers had occupied spaces between various holes, but it was evident that the larger the power, the closer they were to the center of the Eruption site.

Su Han looked up to see that at the center of the land, there were large hollows appearing, and these hollows seemed to still be collapsing, with big chunks of soil falling into them from the surrounding open ground.

Each hole was dozens of miles wide in diameter, and there were...

One hundred such holes!
