Chapter 200: Chapter 180: Sword Spirit and the Reborn!

A gemstone was delicately held by the queen, and then she gently let it go.

"Such a high level of aesthetic standard... Christina, you surprise me."

The queen whispered softly.

Christina knelt on one knee, maintaining a humble posture, without saying a word.

She knew that at this moment, any words were superfluous.

After a few breaths,

The queen finally asked, "With such a gemstone, given your strength..."

"I obtained it from a man," Christina said.

"Hehehe, why didn’t the other sisters fight you for it? You know, any little commotion, and everyone swarms in," the queen said with the tone of casual conversation.

"I went to the Death Realm," Christina said.

"Things from the Death Realm are indeed hard to bring back, so you made money off a dead person?" the queen asked.

"Not just that, the man seemed to be a newbie, but his strength was strong... He must have had support behind him," Christina said.

—— Absolutely someone supported him.

Otherwise, how could a person complete a documentary about the Death World?

That gemstone enough to drown a high heel, could that belong to one person?

"So he’s a rich second generation, I see."

The queen shifted to a more comfortable position to sit and asked with interest, "Such beings usually have masters hidden by their side for protection, how did you bypass this barrier and charm him?"

"I did not charm him," Christina said.

"You didn’t charm him?" the queen asked, surprised.

"Yes, I worked for him in exchange for compensation, so from beginning to end, no one appeared to stop me," Christina said.

The queen paused for a moment, then muttered, "Quite an excellent strategy, Christina, I have long heard that you are among the most gifted of the new generation, but I didn’t expect you to achieve this extent—"

"From now on, you will stay by my side."

Christina bowed her head in acknowledgment, saying respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty."

...

A profound chill poured down from the sky.

Wu Xiaode’s mind flashed with countless thoughts.

"Bone Dragons choose their food too, they won’t want something overly stupid," said the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit.

"So, I need to act very stupid?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"No, just be yourself as usual, the main issue is your friend; unlike you, who has a hint of Eternal Soul Power, it will be done for once consumed," said the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit.

Wu Xiaode sincerely said, "Thank you for the advice."

He grabbed Rotten Bone and pointed to the deep blue chill in the sky, "Bro, do you know what the Bone Dragon is doing?"

"Good buddy, do you have some insider news? Tell me about it," asked Rotten Bone in a hushed tone.

The chill poured down.

On the ground, all battles ceased.

Every undead, every demon, was frozen in place by the Ice Frost’s power, unable to move an inch.

—— Movement speed reduced by 99%!

Fast! The Bone Dragon would probably start feeding soon!

Wu Xiaode maintained his composure and whispered, "His Excellency the Bone Dragon is selecting suitable people to bestow high-level power upon."

"Listen, bro, I wouldn’t tell just anyone, but we’re so close, so hear me out—"

"Just flaunt your strength, show your high spirits, and use that skill you once told me about, what’s it called?"

"Embrace and Burn Together," Rotten Bone said excitedly.

"Right! That’s the one, show its power off in front of the Bone Dragon, and you’ll be chosen," Wu Xiaode said.

"Good buddy, thanks for telling me this. I’ll take you clubbing later as thanks," Rotten Bone said excitedly.

From the depths of the sky, the Bone Dragon’s rumbling voice could be heard:

"You insignificant beings... there’s been a little hitch in the battle, but no matter."

"I will settle everything."

Now was the moment!

Wu Xiaode gave Rotten Bone a meaningful glance.

Rotten Bone, catching the hint, surged with Soul Power, emitting blazing Fiery Flame.

It shouted, "Great Bone Dragon, look at me! Quickly, look at me!"

In the depths of the sky.

The Bone Dragon soared amidst the endless piercing cold, its gaze sweeping downward.

It saw many excellent warriors, many talented youngsters, and a fair number of rare professionals.

—— From now on, these people were its own.

The Bone Dragon’s gaze swept across the battlefield, spotting a skeleton at the outskirts.

The skeleton was performing "Embrace and Burn Together."

Embrace and Burn Together is a foolish skill because if you can embrace your enemy, you surely have ways to kill them outright with a weapon.

So why bother with Embrace and Burn Together?

Perhaps going all out may yield a chance of survival, but using Embrace and Burn Together surely leads you to a dead end.

How foolish must one be to choose such a skill?

Such a skeleton, challenging my very limits of tolerance, was absolutely unsuitable to be in my paradise.

The Bone Dragon slowly opened its mouth and sucked mightily at the ground—

On the battlefield.

The vast majority of demons and undead disappeared in an instant.

Only those whom the Bone Dragon completely disregarded were left behind.

The Bone Dragon flapped its wings and flew towards the depths of the Death Realm.

The lingering chill on the battlefield vanished without a trace.

All anomalies ceased to exist.

Rotten Bone regained its ability to move.

"Eh? Good buddy, where are you?" It looked around in bewilderment and called out.

Twenty minutes later.

Rotten Bone finally found the other undead.

These remaining undead numbered but a few dozen.

They gathered together, discussing heatedly what had just occurred.

Each one of the undead wore a puzzled face, unable to grasp what had just happened.

Only Rotten Bone stood silently aside, arms crossed.

It nervously watched every undead.

The others had disappeared, leaving only itself and these fellows.

——So it’s just me and these guys who made it to the semi-finals?

The Bone Dragon is going to choose the most promising genius from among us and pass on abilities?

It seems I have to figure out a way to defeat them.

Rotten Bone placed his hand on the scimitar, quietly adjusting his state, making final preparations for the upcoming battle.

...

Rows of ice crystal small characters crazily refreshed:

"You have activated ’Fog Shadow’."

"You have transformed into silent Demon Mist; your current state is immune to all Magic damage and effects."

"You are exempt from Soul Imprisonment;"

"You are exempt from Memory Manipulation;"

"You are exempt from Divine Thought control;"

"You are exempt from soul fluctuation positioning and tracking magic;"

"Note:"

"You have reached the Bone Dragon’s private territory: Dark Dragon City."

A cluster of mist quietly floated in the gloomy sky, carried by the wind towards the huge bell tower in the center of the city.

It gathered within the inner wall of the Big Copper Bell, taking the form of Wu Xiaode.

"What’s the situation?" Wu Xiaode wondered.

"This is the Bone Dragon’s turf; it has brought you here and turned you into its subject," said the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit.

"And here I thought it wanted to eat us," Wu Xiaode said.

"To be precise, it did eat you——you are now in its belly, along with the other Undead Demons," the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit said.

"It created a world within its own body?"

"Exactly."

"And what is this world?"

"It’s still part of the Death Realm—after all, the Bone Dragon is a legendary being of the Death Realm, so the Laws here are still the Death Laws."

"...How many levels does one need to achieve this?"

"At least level 100. Alright, we have now completed the first step of the mission and safely arrived in the world inside the Bone Dragon’s belly," said the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit.

Wu Xiaode hastily said, "Wait a minute, the mission I commissioned was ’to find a way to prevent the destruction of parallel universe number 1666, and to execute it,’ don’t tell me——"

"Yes, the starting point of that method is right here," said the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit.

"...What am I supposed to do here?" Wu Xiaode asked.

He glanced at his Soul Power balance.

Thanks to the joint efforts of himself and the Enchanting Demon Christina, the income from Soul Power was quite substantial.

Even though the platform took seventy percent, he still had eight hundred and fifty thousand Soul Power left.

Eight hundred and fifty thousand...

Though it wasn’t enough to kill the Black Dragon, it was sufficient to deal with ordinary enemies!

Wu Xiaode suddenly realized something.

No wonder all those Demon Gods are looking for living people who have awakened the Power of Death.

Maybe the Power of Death obtained in this manner is extremely special?

The reason for this speculation is that the Soul Power and moves obtained through the Book of the Dead enabled him to challenge enemies several tiers stronger than himself.

Thousand Hands was like this.

Braving the wind and snow, enduring the long nights and sparse moon shadows is the same.

——But according to the knowledge and memories of the skeleton "Sang Biao," rarely can the undead challenge those of a higher level.

Everyone accumulates Soul Power bit by bit, learning one skill at a time.

Not me! I’m completely different!

Perhaps there are astonishing secrets hidden within, enticing even the Demon Gods.

Wu Xiaode shakes his head, deciding not to ponder on this for now.

There are many tasks at hand; once my strength is greater, perhaps I will have the qualifications to explore the motives of the Demon Gods.

"What exactly does the bone dragon want by bringing us into its world?" Wu Xiaode asks.

"It is shearing the wool off the Death Realm," the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit says.

"Shearing wool?" Wu Xiaode says.

"Yes, those undead and demons suited for construction will stay here to build its world; those good at fighting will be sent out to work for it; as for the most outstanding ones, it will devour them, thereby absorbing your talents and power," the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit says.

"I see," Wu Xiaode sighs.

"Generally speaking, within its realm, it is a God, and no one can resist its power. But by transforming into that unrestricted mist, you were able to break free from all its restraints from the start, giving you a chance—"

"To steal its treasures!"

"Among the bone dragon’s treasures is a pure Death Soul Secret Language Treasure Diamond, which you must steal," the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit says.

"What’s the use of this gemstone?" Wu Xiaode asks.

"The moment I reveal its purpose, it will immediately attract countless prying eyes, so I can’t utter a word until you truly possess it," the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit says.

"Alright, do you know where the bone dragon’s treasures are?" Wu Xiaode says.

"I don’t know, the Dragon Clan’s treasures are usually extremely well-hidden, and no one knows the location of its hoard. You will likely need to spend considerable effort exploring before you have a chance to find it," the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit says.

Wu Xiaode glances outside the Big Copper Bell.

He sees the entire city engulfed in dark clouds and cold rain, endless black buildings stretching out as far as the eye can see, the edge of the world completely obscured.

——How will I find where the bone dragon’s treasure is buried?

Moreover, this place is full of undead and demons with altered memories, unable to even recall who they are, absolutely unreliable for assistance.

"It’s quite difficult, but to prevent the destruction of a world, it must be done. Good luck," the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit encourages.

"Alright, it seems I can only search slowly."

As Wu Xiaode is reflecting, suddenly, the darkness inside the Big Copper Bell is pierced by a strand of fiery light.

A burning joss paper flutters down.

——In the world of the living, someone is burning paper money for me again!

Who could it be?

Wu Xiaode reaches out and catches the joss paper.

The joss paper quickly burns up.

A note appears in Wu Xiaode’s hand, with a few lines written in bold and powerful handwriting:

"The bone dragon’s treasure is buried beneath the Dragon God statue in the Holy Dragon God Church at the very center of the city,"

"To enter the treasury, you must go through a secret passage, moving front, front, diagonal left, diagonal right, left, right, left, right, jump one, jump two."

"The spell to open the door is: ’Embrace Ice Frost.’

"The order to collect the treasures is: weapons first, armor second, then the chest, and finally Gold Coins."

"When leaving, you must leave one of each thing behind; otherwise, the defense mechanism will be triggered, immediately awakening the bone dragon."

"——This is what you told me two years later."

"Li Kunlun left this."
