Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 624: Chapter 621: Ancient Battlefield

This was a world that was extremely desolate, yet filled with the breath of age and vicissitudes.

The sky was dim, the ground cracked, as if it had suffered a severe drought.

On the ground, corpses could be seen everywhere, but these corpses were already dried up, and there was no flesh or blood, only bones.

Those bones, after countless years of being exposed to the wind and sun, seemed as if they would turn into flying ash upon a light touch.

This place was endless at a glance, even more desolate than the Demon God World, also known as the Gate of Deer Chasing, with dark clouds pressing down in the void, and some birds flying by from time to time.

The presence of these birds was terrifying. They seemed small, like crows, but when they flew across the sky, their cold gazes made everyone who saw them shrink their necks.

The corpses on the ground, most resembling ordinary people, included also some extremely large ones; when alive, if they stood, they would at least be several dozens of meters tall, and some hundreds of meters, or even up to a thousand meters tall.

Just the sheer size of their bodies provided a strong visual impact, if it were not for the sensed aura, one might think they were the bodies of Demon Beasts.

Although already turned into corpses, and dried up over countless years, nearing to become dust, one could still feel the immense aura they once possessed.

...

Desolate, ancient, time-worn.

This was the first impression Su Han and others had upon arriving here.

Nangong Yu was right, this place would separate people, although he entered with the people from Phoenix Sect, at this moment, behind Su Han, there were only more than a hundred people, among whom were Liuyun and Shangguan Mingxin.

The remaining close to nine hundred people had already been transported to other places.

”There is an invisible force here...”

Su Han frowned slightly, after feeling it a bit, he suddenly slapped his forehead.

Upon this slap, a crack actually appeared on his forehead, and within that crack, it seemed an eye had emerged!

This scene, even Liuyun and Shangguan Mingxin had never seen before, that eye was blood-red, and under its gaze, one could seemingly fall deep into it, which made both of them quickly shift their gaze away.

This eye, known as Heavenly Eye.

Of course, it was not inherent but a Technique cultivated by Su Han.

This Technique had no Attack Power or defensive power, nor would it enhance one’s Cultivation Base, but it could see through falsehood and reveal the truth.

When the Heavenly Eye opened, an immediate vision of a blood-red world appeared in Su Han’s mind.

In this world, there were still skeletons everywhere, corpses piled up, but on himself and others, there was invisibly, a thread connecting them all.

The Heavenly Eye consumed a lot, and soon Su Han’s face turned pale. He closed the Heavenly Eye, returning to normal, but apart from this thread, there were no other findings.

”Nangong Yu once said that after coming here, do not look for the Sage’s Skull first, but to first find one’s own Sect people. The more people, the more strength. Is it because of these threads?”

Su Han guessed in his heart, and he felt even more that since entering this place, his strength had increased a lot.

Cultivation Base had not improved, his body had not broken through, but his strength had definitely increased.

”Sect Master, this place is somewhat eerie.”

Liuyun also suddenly spoke, ”My Cultivation Base, clearly has not improved, but it seems... a lot stronger.”

”It’s the same for me.”

”It’s the same for me.”

Shangguan Mingxin and the others felt the same, which further proved Su Han’s guess.

”This increase in strength seems to be within a range.”

Su Han mused, ”Within a certain range, the more the number of people, the stronger the enhancement in strength becomes, but ... does this number refer to people from one Sect or from several Sects together becoming stronger? If that is the case, what use is this enhancement?”

”There must be a special method!”

Su Han’s gaze flickered, and at great cost to himself, he activated the Heavenly Eye again!

This time when he activated the Heavenly Eye, Su Han suddenly heard a roaring sound in his ears.

He suddenly looked up, only to see the dark clouds in the Void above rolling, revealing strands of deep purple threads!

Some of these threads were disappearing, while others... were connected to the tops of the heads of him and his companions!

”Hmm?”

Su Han’s pupils contracted as he immediately realized that the reason why their strength had invisibly increased was due to the connections made by these deep purple threads!

It seemed as if, in an obscure manner, the world of the Ancient Battlefield was observing the number of people present.

To completely distinguish whether these were individuals from one Sect or several Sects standing together within a range to increase their strength, one had to look at these deep purple threads!

”But how... can we acquire these threads?”

Su Han closed his Heavenly Eye, his face a bit pale, as he silently speculated in his heart.

After a long time, Su Han recovered and opened the Heavenly Eye for the third time.

This time, Su Han clearly saw that a deep purple thread was connected to a massive bone structure in front of him!

While it was connected to this bone, another strand branched off and connected to himself and his companions!

”It’s this bone!”

Su Han now understood, immediately closed the Heavenly Eye, his figure flickering as he went directly before the bone.

The owner of the bone, towering hundreds of feet tall, was indistinguishable as a human or beast, and its skull had already been taken by someone.

”Could it be that the head of this corpse is the so-called Sage’s Skull?” Su Han narrowed his eyes.

”This piece of bone, connected to us, can enhance our strength, but if we step out of this range...”

At this thought, Su Han immediately said, ”You guys wait here.”

”Yes,” Liuyun and the others responded.

After Su Han spoke, his figure flickered, dashing off into the distance.

Ten yards, a hundred yards, a thousand yards... ten thousand yards!

As Su Han calculated in his mind and stepped out of the ten thousand yard range, he immediately felt that his strength had returned to normal.

”This range is ten thousand yards!”

Su Han’s gaze flickered, ”That is to say, only within these ten thousand yards, with something like the bone that can connect to the deep purple threads, can our strength invisibly increase!”

”And the Top Ten Super Sects, by obtaining the Sage’s Skulls and submitting them, determine their ranking...”

In that instant, Su Han’s body suddenly shook, and a shocking speculation emerged from his heart.

”Impossible...”

Su Han took a deep breath of cool air, ”Could this Ancient Battlefield’s world still be connected to the Dragon Martial Continent? What exactly is Dragon Martial Continent? And what is this Ancient Battlefield?”

He had originally speculated that this place was at most a battlefield within a Lower-Class Star Region, and that the so-called Sage’s Skull should be from a Spirit Realm powerhouse’s skeleton within the Lower-Class Star Region.

But at this moment, he found that he was greatly mistaken.
