Chapter 215: Ol’ Amos’ Not Dead? Dead Souls Half-Deity
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Leaving wealth with the people.” This idiom would fit perfectly into Dragon Island’s description.
The wealth of an ordinary Colossal Dragon would definitely be less than that of a half-deity, but what about 100 of them? 10,000 of them? 10,000 of them?
The answer was clear!
With Thaniel, the traitor of Dragons, leading the way, ng Lei beca a devil for once—loot them all, grab them all, take them all!
Loot the Dragon Nest!
Grab all their wealth!
Take all their treasures!
After quite a while of looting, ng Lei’s Wealth had surged to 13.57 million Laws of Nature Origin Crystals!
That was an astonishing figure, while there were also countless treasures from the loot.
It would be no exaggeration to say that this trip to Dragon Island made ng Lei rich suddenly, making him feel very pleased.
With a good mood, he would naturally be easier to talk to.
Surely enough, ng Lei accepted Thaniel’s proposal without any hesitation to spare the Colossal Dragons’ lives.
ng Lei left so space in the Tower of Ti specifically for these Colossal Dragons to live in.
Yeap, I’ll just breed them like pigs!
ng Lei even thought of placing the Tower of Ti at the capital after building his own empire.
After which talents could be allowed to enter and practice, letting these arrogant Dragons have a taste of being at the rcy of others and beco the hunted ones.
“Where do we go next, Master?”
Thaniel gazed at the now empty Dragon Island, not knowing whether he should cry or laugh at the circumstances.
He did not want his species to be exterminated, not to ntion being bred like pigs!
“Do you know where the Dragon graves are?” ng Lei asked all of a sudden.
“The Dragon graves?” Thaniel’s expression changed. “Master, you’re not going to leave the Dragon graves alone? The Dragon cetery is a forbidden place of the Dragons where we bury the dead—”
“What were you thinking?” ng Lei snorted slightly and carried on. “I’m only going there to worship an elder.”
“That’s fine! That’s fine!” Thaniel was relieved, and he flapped his wings to bring ng Lei towards the Dragon graves.
The Dragon graves were also situated on an island.
On the island, stone mountains towered above with bizarre rock formations below. Among the stone forest, stood gravestones with Colossal Dragons buried beneath one after the other.
With his divine cognition covering across the entire island, ng Lei began his search.
After quite a while, Ol’ President’s tombstone could still not be found.
ng Lei frowned.
Elder Amolin had said that she would bury Ol’ President in the Dragon graves, but why were there no signs of his tomb?
I need an explanation!
ng Lei found Amolin, though the answer he got left him in shock.
“You’re saying, Ol’ President isn’t dead?”
“Big Brother’s Soul Jade is still intact, so he should still be alive.”
Amolin took out a blood-colored jade and continued with a dash of sorrow in her eyes. “When Dragons are born, a Soul Jade will be made.
“When the jade is fine, the Dragon is alive.
“When the jade breaks, the Dragon is dead.
“All this ti, I have held onto Big Brother’s Soul Jade, never broken for these 20,000 years. So I have always believed that Big Brother isn’t dead yet!”
Amolin’s tears welled up. “Even though he perished together with the Tree of Life last ti out in the Lost Continent, his Soul Jade never broke. So I’m certain Big Brother isn’t dead!”
“Not dead! Ol’ President is not dead! That is great, that is so great!” ng Lei beca incoherent with excitent. “Since he isn’t dead, then where is he? Didn’t he perish together with the Tree of Life?”
“In my opinion, there should be two possibilities.” Amolin said quietly, “Big Brother either had other incarnations, or he’s still sealed in your divine weapon.”
“Gods-Slaying Spear?”
ng Lei took out his Gods-Slaying Spear and checked with his divine cognition. However, after a round of inspection, nothing could be found.
“Ol’ President isn’t inside the Gods-Slaying Spear...”
ng Lei was utterly disappointed.
“Then there is only one possibility,” Amolin said. “Big Brother had other incarnations.”
“Other incarnations?”
ng Lei frowned. “Since there are other incarnations, why didn’t he co back and look for you? It doesn’t make any sense!”
“I don’t know...” Amolin said with a bitter smile.
“Ol’ President!”
ng Lei clenched his fists, “No matter where he is, I will find him!”
“If you can find him, please tell him that I’m waiting for him, please!”
Amolin wiped her tears.
“Definitely!”
ng Lei nodded when a night owl-like voice echoed.
“You ugly lizards! Wait till I co out and turn all of you into the Undead, and I’ll burn your souls with divine fire!
“Hoo... hoo... hoo! Burn in eternal flas, and you’ll neither live nor die...”
“What was that sound?”
ng Lei’s brows knitted together slightly.
The sound ca from underwater below the island. To be exact, it was not a sound, it was actually an aura from divine cognition.
“Master, this was the sound of an ancient evil fiend, Puhaman,” Thaniel replied with respect.
“Evil ancient fiend Puhaman?”
A shrewd glint flashed across ng Lei’s eyes as he asked with great interest, “Tell more.”
“Speaking of Puhaman, it all started 50,000 years ago.”
Thaniel spoke faintly. “50,000 years ago, we Dragons ruled the Heaven’s Vault Continent. We are the only masters of this world. Even the Beast People, Fairies, Titans of the current age could only be holed up in their holands and live off the breath of us. Moreover, the far northern wastelands, Fairy woods, and Titan highlands of the three empires were our backyard!”
Thaniel’s eyes were brimming with pride. “The Heaven’s Vault Continent was truly the Colossal Dragon’s continent! Unfortunately...”
Thaniel let out a wry laugh. “As the Dragon God left the Heaven’s Vault Continent along with his high-end combat power, our Dragon God Empire was in jeopardy. The Beast People holed up in the Beast People imperial courts, the Fairies concealed in the Goddess Lakeside, the Titans hidden in the Sierra Mountains, and other intelligent species like Goblins, Dwarfs, Trolls all appeared. Even all sorts of fiends and devils burst into the scene!
“Virtually overnight, our Dragon God Empire disintegrated. Not only did we lose a large tract of territories, but our elites suffered heavy casualties too. This was when the ancient evil fiend, Puhaman, appeared. As a Dead Souls half-deity, Puhaman’s destructive powers were no less than of the three empires!”
“Dead Souls half-deity?”
ng Lei’s eyes lit up.
“Yes! Dead Souls half-deity!” Thaniel nodded slightly. “The evil Puhaman, though he only had a staff, and he could cast dead souls magic to summon countless evil Undead from the Underworld. The Undead army was formidable and dreadful. Any living things would be slaughtered wherever they went and turned into dead souls by Puhaman. In short, Puhaman made us suffer heavy losses. The empire had to send out several half-deities to suppress and seal him away.”
“So the Dead Souls half-deity is sealed here?” ng Lei was very interested.
“Yes, Master,” replied Thaniel.
“Let’s go down and take a look.”
“Master, isn’t that a bad idea?” Thaniel objected hurriedly, “Puhaman is very evil—”
ng Lei glanced at him as he asked in reply, “Evil? Is he as evil as ?” M
Thaniel shut up instantly.
Evil? Puhaman would be as innocent as a newborn baby compared to you!
“Get down then.”
ng Lei flew down below the Dragon graves. Thaniel had no choice but to lead the way in front.
In a short while, both of them went into the sea and saw a brightly lit cave.
The cave reflected a soft milky halo, emitting fluttering light movents.
“Let’s head over and take a look.”
ng Lei teleported before the entrance and saw a cave that was bright as day. Its walls were embedded with milk-white light elental crystals.
There was an altar in the middle of the cave.
On the altar stood ten pillars, and each of them was crafted using light elental crystals. They were connected to ten tal chains, which were all linked to a person in the middle.
He was thin as sticks, with hair disheveled. Other than a layer of dry, wrinkled skin, there was no excess flesh, just like a re bag of bones.
The ten chains went through his arms, ribs, belly, legs, shoulder blades, pinning him into the middle of the altar alive. He could neither sit nor lay on the floor. He could only stand there—that was worse than being dead.
However, these were nothing compared to the critical chain right between his eyes.
This chain locked his divine spirit, which prevented him from using his power of divinity, incapacitating him completely disabled.
“Hoot, hoot, hoot. Soone actually ca here! How rare, very rare!”
As if sensing ng Lei’s arrival, the skeleton raised his head slowly. Through the ssy hair extending all the way to the floor, a pair of green eyes could be seen—they were like the frightening eyes of a wolf.
“Dead Souls half-deity, Puhaman?” ng Lei sized up the skeleton on the altar.
“You have no scent of those nasty lizards on you. Who are you? How did you appear here?”
The skeleton glared with those green eyes and spoke in a raucous voice like an owl.
“If you’re willing, I can be your savior,” ng Lei said leisurely.
“Save ? Who do you think you are?”
Puhaman paused before he laughed out loud. “If that slly lizard behind you had said that, I would have believed it. As for you—”
“Puhaman, you evil Dead Souls half-deity, you better watch your tone!” Thaniel responded angrily. “Standing before you is my great Master—His Highness ng Lei! If you offend him again, I won’t show any rcy!”
“Master?”
Puhaman was stunned and glanced at Thaniel before turning his green eyes toward ng Lei, re-examining him.
“This fetid lizard is one of the few half-deities of Dragon Island. How did you subdue him?”
“Took out other half-deities, so he naturally submitted to .” ng Lei smiled faintly. “Now answer , do you want to get out?”
“You killed the rest of the half-deity Dragons?” Puhaman was taken aback, shaking his head repeatedly. “No... This can’t be possible! These damned stinking lizards might be despicable and on the decline, but to kill them? Absolutely no way!”
“Tell him the truth.”
ng Lei looked at Thaniel.
Thaniel gave a wry smile and told him of ng Lei’s incredible dragon-slaying feat, honestly.
“...”
Puhaman was dumbfounded.
“Let ask you one last ti, do you want to get out?” ng Lei was getting impatient.
“You’re really willing to let go?”
Puhaman stared at ng Lei.
“Of course!”
“And what do I have to offer?”
“Your loyalty!”
