Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire-Chapter 408 - 252: The Headless Divine Calamity, The New King Acknowledging Ancestors

"Your Majesty!"

A cry filled with grief resounded, for the Immortal King, whom countless undead looked up to and even the Demigod Witch Demon had to kneel before, was now beheaded by the dragon. A skull as large as a mountain fell.

"What a treasure, it’s mine now!"

Noah saw the Immortal King’s head fall, his dragon eyes gleamed, and instantly he reached out with his Dragon Claw to catch it.

Although Infinite Death Qi erupted, trying to erode his flesh and turn Noah into an undead, Noah resisted the erosion with the majestic blood energy of the Legendary Ancestor Dragon.

"Well done, let’s go!"

Selena, who shielded Noah from the undead tide, appeared before him with a joyful smile, then tapped Noah’s scales with her Magic Wand. Instantly, a grand power swept in, time and space twisted, the world flipped upside down.

In just a short moment, Selena had brought Noah back from the world of the dead to the land of the living, as for Parvati, Selena left her be.

But the Legendary Mage currently had no time to care about her great-granddaughter’s survival, as the Elf Gods wouldn’t allow her to fall in the Great Graveyard.

Selena now had to worry about the Immortal King’s head retrieved by Noah, which was a source continually bursting with death qi. The death qi spilling out every moment could cause an Undead Calamity, capable of easily annihilating a bustling city and swallowing a country in moments.

"You are seeking death!"

The Immortal King, held in Noah’s Dragon Claw, transmitted a cold intention.

The Immortal King had not fallen, he was merely beheaded—in short, his neck was severed, which for mortal beings would be a fatal wound.

But for the Undead, this couldn’t be called damage. Ordinary Skeleton Soldiers could reattach their heads if they fell off, let alone the Immortal King.

"Such nonsense!"

The Time-Space Amber secreted and solidified, but couldn’t seal it for long, because the head itself contained extremely powerful energy. The soul fire jumping within, if not for the influence of the Spear of Destiny, Noah wouldn’t be able to hold it in his hands.

However, times were different now. Back in the day, as a Young Dragon, Noah wouldn’t dare claim a Molten Evil Ghost’s head, even without the soul fire, fearing a feigned death or death qi attack.

But now, Noah had retrieved the head of a still-living King of Undead and even wanted to put it in his treasury. It was a rare treasure, worthy of being in the treasure vault or trophy gallery, extremely glorious.

"Add a few more layers, don’t mind the trouble!"

Seeing the Immortal King’s skull temporarily sealed by the Time-Space Amber, Selena waved her Magic Wand and added multiple Rune seals over the Amber.

Even with only a head left, the bodyless Immortal King remained powerful; ordinary Legendary beings didn’t even qualify to approach, but now he was just a head, his power weakened by more than half.

Normal undead work differently; the soul fire is the core of undead creatures and their source of power. Once the flame is destroyed, the remaining body is just a corpse.

Just like the Frost Corpse Dragon slain by Noah; once its head and soul fire were destroyed, what’s left was a headless corpse, utterly useless. But the Immortal King was different.

He indeed possessed soul fire, but he also had a second core, which was his body. The head-only Immortal King’s power weakened remarkably, allowing Noah to hold the skull in his hand now.

"I know!"

A man and dragon labored for three days and nights in the remote wasteland, finally fitting the Immortal King’s skull into an Amber, appearing only the size of a human head. Within it, the tiered space runes were the key. freewёbnoνel.com

"Hahaha, this is my most perfect creation since birth!"

Seeing the Immortal Bone appearing exquisitely within the forming Amber necklace, the Legendary Mage, in the form of a young girl, couldn’t help but proudly laugh while placing her hands on her hips. But just as she was about to take the Amber, Noah preempted her, clutching the Amber in his Dragon Claw.

"Little Noah, what are you planning?"

Selena squinted her already narrow eyes.

"Auntie, don’t you think it’s fitting for me to keep this head here? After all, these thirty-six layers of Rune seals are based on my Time-Space Amber."

Noah held onto the Immortal King’s head persistently and said seriously.

"I don’t think so. Without my supplementing the runes, this head will eventually break through the seal, which will cause great trouble."

"Runes, I can learn."

Noah responded without hesitation.

"I can teach you, but you need to leave this Amber with me first. Once you’ve learned, I’ll give it back for safekeeping."

The maiden’s tone carried a gentle allure, making one’s heart sway uncontrollably, but unfortunately, the will of the Golden Dragon had been honed through countless trials, unaffected.

"No need, these runes aren’t hard to learn. In just half a year, I can master them all. Until then, I trust this skull should not break through the seal we’ve jointly established."

"Little Noah, this head is too dangerous for you, it’s best to leave it with me for safekeeping."

"Auntie, I am now a Legendary Dragon."

"So to speak, you insist on having this skull."

"No one can take from a dragon what is rightfully his prize."
