Chapter 158: Chapter 158: Shieldback Dragon Turtle, Skyforge Empire Treasure

"Yes." The Corrupted Giant Turtle also felt George’s change. Without hesitation, it signed the master-servant contract with him.

[Successfully Tamed the 8th Pet, +10,000 to four basic stats]

[Corrupted Giant Turtle’s bloodline awakened, promoted to Shieldback Dragon Turtle, current stage SSS tier]

[Blood King Constantine’s stats increased, +5,000 to four basic stats, skill level +1]

[You received Strength Reciprocation, +10,000 to four basic stats]

[The Wraith of War Eliex broke through SSS tier, promoted to False God, +10,000 to four basic stats, gained talent Forge Heart]

[Blazing Angel Lilia’s stats increased, +5,000 to four basic stats, skill level +1]

[Obsidian Wraith’s stats increased, +5,000 to four basic stats, skill level +1]

...

A series of message flashes appeared. Capturing the Corrupted Giant Turtle had greatly boosted the power of his monsters. And the Golden Flame Dragon and Eliex had both broken through to False God.

Now only Melina, Obsidian Wraith, and the newly captured Corrupted Giant Turtle had not yet reached False God.

There was still one Taming slot left.

George searched the area for a suitable pet to tame.

Dark Wolfguard leader, Half-Orc leader...

There were many SSS-tier monsters around, but their cultivation value wasn’t great. He didn’t even look at them.

"Master, my bloodline has awakened," the upgraded Corrupted Giant Turtle said with surprise.

"Shieldback Dragon Turtle?"

George finally noticed the turtle’s change and said in surprise, "You have the Celestial Serpent blood inside you?"

The Shieldback Dragon Turtle nodded quickly.

This guy clearly had growth potential just as strong as the Golden Flame Dragon. If it evolved one more time, it might break through to False God.

But there was no suitable monster to tame around here.

"Let’s go. There’s a treasure spot in this desert," George took the snake’s body and the loot, pulled out a map, and studied it carefully.

Under the gray sky, the sand blew wildly with no landmarks to help.

He compared the map in his hands, but didn’t know how to find the right place.

The Shieldback Dragon Turtle’s big head came closer, looked at George’s map, and frowned.

"Master, I think I know where that place is."

"Know it?" George was surprised.

The Shieldback Dragon Turtle nodded. "I remember it was an underground palace. I wanted to take it as my nest, but the monsters there were too scary. I got driven out."

If something could drive out a Shieldback Dragon Turtle, then the monsters there were definitely not to be taken lightly.

But George wasn’t afraid.

He asked, "Can you find that place again?"

The Shieldback Dragon Turtle thought for a moment and said, "I can find the general area. It was hundreds of years ago, so I’m not sure if it has changed."

"Take me there," George jumped onto its back, and Obsidian Wraith followed right behind.

The Shieldback Dragon Turtle ran fast through the desert, as if walking on flat ground.

Soon, it stopped in front of a sand dune, looked around, and said, "Master, it should be around here."

This was deep in the desert. All around was just sand and no monsters.

George didn’t know how the thing could tell where they were. He felt nothing strange, so he asked, "Can you be sure about the exact location?"

The Shieldback Dragon Turtle shook its head. "I just stumbled into that palace last time. I only know it’s underground. Master, stay steady. I’m going to check under the sand."

With that, it dove straight into the sand.

George felt everything go dark. Sand rushed around him, and it felt like he was moving through a river.

The Shieldback Dragon Turtle swam aimlessly through the sand. Two days passed.

The sand moved like an underground current, nearly throwing George and Obsidian Wraith off.

"This is it, Master!" The Shieldback Dragon Turtle was excited. Its huge body was wrapped in sand and quickly sank deeper.

George felt himself falling fast.

Soon, the fall stopped. The world opened up. Sand was blocked out, and he was now in an old, ruined palace. The wind was strong, and the place was in bad shape.

The wind howled. A bunch of monsters appeared.

[Wind Spirit Beast Boss, Stage SSS Tier, Level 90, HP 20 million]

George looked at the stats. All of them were 90-level SSS-tier bosses.

No wonder the Shieldback Dragon Turtle couldn’t beat them.

"Master, be careful. These monsters are weird."

The Shieldback Dragon Turtle warned, then pulled itself into its shell.

Plop! Plop!

A series of dull sounds echoed. George realized the sound was from invisible wind blades.

"Obsidian Wraith, get behind the Shieldback Dragon Turtle!"

George warned, then activated the Diamond Scripture. His body felt pain, and blood started to flow.

These wind blades could actually hurt him.

"Master, these guys are in the form of a Life Will." Obsidian Wraith noticed something and quickly warned.

Life Will? That’s why they were so strange.

George understood. He moved fast, appearing in the middle of the Wind Spirit Beasts. His Fundamental Power surged, and he attacked.

Boom!

One of the Wind Spirit Beasts was blown away. It moved around, then turned into a gust of wind and disappeared.

It wasn’t dead. A moment later, it reformed and came back for more.

"Elemental Body?" George was confused. He had heard Lilia talk about it before. Some special beings had Elemental Body, meaning they could turn into elements and avoid most damage.

But they couldn’t resist Forbidden Spells.

George floated up into the air, held his staff, and whispered a spell. Fire energy exploded around him.

"Damn, here it comes again!" The Shieldback Dragon Turtle was shocked. It had seen the power of this Forbidden Spell before, so it immediately ran back.

"Hey, wait for me!" Obsidian Wraith also ran after it quickly.

"Purifying Flame!"

George’s voice echoed like a death god. Endless black fire surged, like a falling star. The area turned into a black firestorm.

With the Heart of the Ocean artifact gear, he only used 50% of his magic, and his magic was regenerating at 10% per second.

Right now, George could cast Forbidden Spells non-stop. It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that one of him was as strong as an entire army.

A series of painful screams echoed. Each Wind Spirit Beast struggled, body twisted, and their HP dropped fast.

[You killed Wind Spirit Beast Boss, Experience +1.5 million]

[Received loot: Wind Spirit Stone +1]

...

The message kept flashing. One by one, the Wind Spirit Beasts burned to death in the fire.

"These guys are valuable. I can’t let them burn to ash," George thought. He gathered water element energy around his body, and with the Diamond Scripture protection, he jumped into the fire to collect the bodies and Wind Spirit Stones.

These Wind Spirit Beasts were all SSS-tier bosses. They could be used to make Divine Crystals. The Wind Spirit Stones could boost wind magic damage and wind element understanding.

Black flames burned fiercely, almost covering half the palace.

The howls of monsters filled the air. One by one, the Wind Spirit Beasts were killed in the fire.

[You killed Wind Spirit Beast Boss, Experience +1.5 million]

[Received loot: Wind Spirit Stone +1]

George looked at the flashing messages and moved through the fire, picking up the loot.

[You completed the Martial Saint advancement quest. Martial Saint advances to 8th Rank. Four basic stats +10,000, Strength and Stamina +10,000 each. Diamond Scripture and Celestial Pole Scripture level up.]

George felt a powerful surge of Strength inside his body. He had successfully completed the Martial Saint job advancement quest and was now at 8th Rank. His strength had increased a lot again.

And with this rate of experience gain, he would reach level 80 soon.

George moved through the fire, collecting the burned bodies and loot of the Wind Spirit Beasts.

Soon, the area grew quiet. Only the burning flames remained.

In less than half an hour, thousands of Wind Spirit Beast bosses were all dead.

George walked through the fire and went deeper into the ruined palace.

Shieldback Dragon Turtle and Obsidian Wraith quickly went around the flames and followed.

"Shieldback Dragon Turtle, are there any other monsters here besides the Wind Spirit Beasts?" George asked curiously.

"I don’t know. I couldn’t even beat these Wind Spirit Beasts, so I was driven out." The Shieldback Dragon Turtle looked around the palace complex. It was the first time it had been here.

George nodded and jumped onto the turtle’s back. "Let’s check the deep part of the palace."

He felt this place had more than just Wind Spirit Beasts.

"Okay." The Shieldback Dragon Turtle took a step forward, moving through the broken buildings. With its huge body, it smashed everything in its way into ruins.

"Wait for me!" Obsidian Wraith sped up and ran after it.

[Detected a suitable pet nearby]

[God of the Hurricane, Divine Power, Level 90, Weak State, Extremely high cultivation value]

[Teleport?]

The message appeared.

George was shocked. There was a divine power here. But it was only level 90 and in a weak state.

It should be similar to Lilia when she was trapped in the Underworld.

"Teleport!"

George immediately chose to teleport.

A burst of space energy surged, and he, along with the Shieldback Dragon Turtle and Obsidian Wraith, vanished into thin air.

The next moment, they appeared in a dark, huge underground chamber.

"Huh? Where is this?" The Shieldback Dragon Turtle was shocked and looked around carefully. It felt a terrifying energy.

"Master, I can feel Fundamental Power. It’s even stronger than the Fundamental Power in the Black Stone Realm!" Obsidian Wraith said in surprise.

George nodded. He could feel it too.

This must be the Skyforge Empire treasure—Fundamental Power that had been sealed away.
