Chapter 1073

(Unedited)



While walking towards the door he has chosen, Xin Ja noticed a sparkling thing on the lower part of the wall. That thing is the size of a fist and in a closer look… he could already tell what it was.

"This is… a… a broken ice dragon scale…" he thought in excitement.

In fact, he was trying to find a way to get a dragon scale a while ago, but he knew that it was almost impossible.

If he accidentally disturbs the dragon from that frozen state due to the freezing array, then he has to work hard again to set it up. But this time, the dragon would surely be ready for him. So it would all be turned for naught.

Plus, if the others saw him plucking a dragon scale, then they would be eyeing him with envy and it might cause him to be hunted or backstabbed later on.. How could he fight against that many Ki fighters and every one of them is not his match? They would easily pummel him to the ground and take that treasure.

So he did not have a choice but to give up with the scale.

But who would have thought that he could see one and at the side of the door he has chosen at that?

Well, the others might have seen that piece, but seeing that it is only palm-size and broken at that then… they might have not been interested in that thing.

Xin Ja did not hesitate to squat down and pick the object up. With a smile on his face, he continues walking.

"Friend… that thing is useless… you cannot sell that outside. As you can see no one picks it, right?" a young man said who is standing next to Xin Ja.

"Sigh, if only we have a stronger trapping array, then we could take a couple of that dragon's scale." He sighed.

"But then again, that would also cause trouble right? Many of us will surely fight against each other just to get one scale." He added.

"Yeah… But still, getting a scale is impossible." Xin Ja said.

"Hmm… Why is that?" the young man asked in confusion.

"I tried taking one, and the dragon got freed from the binding…" Xin Ja said.

Then the young man realized what had happened in the hall. The dragon was already frozen but then suddenly it was able to move and attack the Yao group. He now understood what has happened. Then he quickly nodded his head in agreement.

"By the way, are you from the Runemaster's guild? I haven't seen you before… especially that weird mask of yours…" the young man asked.

"No… I'm not from the town. I am from a small village. And is currently traveling… I was just caught up in this troublesome matter." Xin Ja said while shaking his head.

The expression of the young man suddenly turned into a surprise.

"Haha… Me too! I am returning from my mission. But then suddenly this thing happened. I should not have been a busybody…" he replied showing a helpless expression.

"I am from Weynan academy… a small school in Ogden town."

"Ahh… I thought that…"

"… That only Ogden academy is the only school in town? Haha… Of course not."

"Although the town of Ogden only has around 20 thousand populations, there are many schools in it. And one of the schools is our Weynan academy. Well, other students come from other villages near and around Ogden town, so that's why there are many schools in the town."

Soon, the two stopped chatting as they already reached the doors they have chosen.

"Hey, if you have time, you can go to Weynan academy. You can look for me, Tang Bin… Good luck!" Tang Bin said while waving his hand.

After the person in front of him enters the door, Tang Bin waited for a few seconds before he opened the door and enters it.

Xin Ja then looks at the door in front of him and heaves a deep sigh.

"Well, here goes nothing…" he said as he extended his hand and slowly pushes the door open.

The green door in front of him opens and Xin Ja was a bit skeptical and alert upon seeing the darkness in front of him.

From the slight and almost invisible ripples on the space in front of him, he could tell that he is actually entering an array formation.

After his body enters the door, his whole environment suddenly lights up.

Xin Ja found himself standing in a dark and gloomy throne room.

The room is lit by torches on the side of the wall with blue flames dancing on their tips.

The throne room looks rustic and has the feel of a medieval period castle.

His eyes landed on the throne at the end of the room and noticed the golden throne. But what caught his eyes is the figure sitting on that throne.

The figure is already skin and bones, but it seems that its body has not yet decomposed. According to what he has learned, decomposition would always happen to corpses turning them into dust after a long time.

But the shriveled corpse sitting on the throne seems to have only lost its muscle mass. But its dried skill seems to be still intact.

Xin Ja in his curiosity carefully walks near the figure.

Soon he reached the stairs to the throne and watches curiously examined the robe of the figure.

Suddenly something moved which startled him, making him jump back.

"Who dares enters my abode!" a voice echoed in the throne room.

Xin Ja did not answer and silently observed his surroundings. Suddenly the figure sitting on the throne moved. Its head bobbed a little and then shifted its gaze at Xin Ja. The sunken eye of the figure slowly glowed red as if a glowing bead of glass.

"Identify yourself… lowly one." The figure said without moving its mouth.

The voice seems to be directly transmitted inside of Xin Ja's head.

Upon seeing the moving corpse, Xin Ja could not help but feel afraid. Although he has fought and has experienced battles and death, seeing such an eerie thing and something that he could not explain made him feel shivers running down his spine.

"I… I am Xin… Xin Jiao…" he said still guarded towards the creature in front.

"Ack… Arrgghh…" Xin Ja grabbed his head as he fell to the ground.

He could not describe the pain he is feeling as he felt like his head is going to split open. He did not know when it happened, but suddenly he fainted.

"Wake up! Wake up!" he heard a voice that startled him.

"What… What happened?" he muttered in confusion.

"You've been asleep for 3 days already…" the voice said.

Xin Ja shifted his gaze and looks around. He saw the figure still sitting on the throne while looking straight at him. That gaze made him feel like he is looking at the void and his soul is being taken away from his body.

"Who… who are you?" Xin Ja could not help but ask.

"Haha… Well, that is a very good question. But before that, I wanted to tell you a story… it is a story that happened a long time ago…" the voice said.

Xin Ja did not know what this man wanted, but he could already sense that something is wrong with his body. He carefully checked himself and found that he was fine. He has no wound and he did not feel any poison entering his system.

While thinking to this point, Xin Ja suddenly shifted his gaze to his abdomen. Then his eyes went wide as if realizing something.

He did not hesitate and quickly felt his body. His mind went inside to his meridians and then to his dantian. But what he saw made him feel like something has just gone wrong.

The reason for this is because… the sphere inside his dantian is now back to its previous color. The cracks have disappeared and the energy inside seems to have been sealed once again.

His effort has been wasted and this made Xin Ja want to shout in anguish. How could this have happened? He then glared angrily at the figure looking at him.

As if knowing what he is thinking, its skeleton-like face suddenly grinned.
