293 – Immemorial Dragon Bones
The Victory Palace, within the imperial study.
Garça stared at Yang Feng in front of him with a complicated look in his eyes, and asked unhurriedly: “Ian, if I appoint you as the imperial marshal to lead the army, what are your chances to defeat André?”
Yang Feng answered confidently: “Your Majesty, if you entrust me to be the imperial marshal and command the army, I have a 90% certainty that I can beat André!”
Joy flashed inside Garça’s eyes, then fear flickered in the abyss of his eyes.
Yang Feng suddenly said with a smile: “That’s right. Your Majesty, didn’t you promise me that I could enter the royal treasury and select some treasures? I’ve been looking forward to it!”
Garça mused for a while, then recalled the promise he made during the coup d’état and looked at Yang Feng with a smile in his eyes.
A perfect, formidable, and flawless subordinate; unless they were a robot, they were a dangerous existence when it came to the superior.
Garça said with a light smile: “Good, I’ll allow you to enter the royal treasury and select 2 treasures. After you defeat André and return, I’ll let you enter the royal treasury again and select 2 more treasures.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty!” Without faking it, Yang Feng showed a smile of joy.
Garça pushed on the chair he sat. Suddenly, the chair emitted magic ripples.
There was a slight twist in space and a white-haired old man, who gave Yang Feng a very dangerous feeling, stepped out of the void. The white-haired old man saluted Garça and said respectfully: “Greetings, Your Majesty!”
Yang Feng looked at the white-haired old man and his pupils constricted slightly: “What a strong fellow, at least a pinnacle Legend rank powerhouse. For such a powerhouse not to appear during the coup d’état, he has to be part of the foundation of the Morrince Family.”
Few powerhouses appeared on the day of the coup d’état. Apart from a handful of Legend rank powerhouses who got themselves involved in the whirlpool that was the struggle over the throne, the rest were unwilling to risk the danger of having their families ruined or annihilated.
The peak powerhouses of the Morrince Family hid in the darkness, not intervening. This white-haired old man was clearly part of the foundation of the Morrince Empire and one of the powerhouses specializing in cultivating in hiding and protecting Garça in the imperial palace.
Within the Victory Palace, any attempt to assassinate Garça would be easily foiled.
In the Victory Palace, powerhouses and experts were as common as flies. Just that, these powerhouses and experts only swore allegiance to the master of the Victory Palace, never participating in imperial power struggles. This was an ironclad rule of the Morrince Family.
Garça said lightly: “Riehen, take Ian to the treasury and let him choose 2 treasures.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!” Riehen responded respectfully, and then said to Yang Feng: “Ian, follow me!”
When he finished speaking, Riehen reached out with his hand, and, with a flicker of magic light, a spatial portal appeared in front of him.
As a palace blessed by the gods, all kinds of outrageous and mystical things could be done in the Victory Palace. If it was outside the Victory Palace, even among Legend Wizards, only pinnacle Legend Wizards proficient in spatial spells were able to open a spatial portal that easily.
Yang Feng stepped into the spatial portal. With a flicker of spatial ripples, countless rays enveloped him, and his vision blurred. The next moment, he appeared in front of a 10-meter-tall, bronze gate engraved with mysterious and profound runes.
Riehen walked up to Yang Feng, then silently recited an incantation, pointed at the huge, bronze gate, and sent a cyan ray into it.
Click! Click!! Amid a burst of noise, the huge, bronze gate slowly opened, releasing brilliant light coming from treasures.
“Go ahead! You can only choose 2 treasures inside.” Riehen hesitated for a moment before saying slowly: “In the treasury, there is a restriction set up by the gods. If you take too many treasures, the restriction will activate, and you will end up with no treasures.”
Yang Feng nodded slightly and entered through the bronze gate.
As soon as he entered through the bronze gate, Yang Feng’s eyes were dazzled by the light coming from the various treasures inside.
Yang Feng’s eyes shone with excitement: “It’s indeed the treasury of the Morrince Empire!”
In the royal treasury, there were no vulgar things such as gold and silver. Instead, it was filled with great fiend hearts, great devil heads, dragon crystals, golden tree seeds, ancient energy absorbing tree seeds. Every treasure could give Legend Wizards palpitations.
“That’s an abyss fiend, fiend baron heart!!” When he entered the royal treasury, he heard a heartbeat. He turned to look in the direction of the heartbeat, and his heart shook violently, full of excitement.
What he saw was a clear crystal engraved with mysterious and profound runes on its surface. Inside the clear crystal was a head-sized, black heart beating incessantly. This black heart was a fiend baron heart.
Abyss fiends were a formidable and terrifying race among great fiends, their fighting strength comparable to human Legend rank powerhouses. Fiend barons, even more so, were frightening beings comparable to human demigod rank powerhouses.
On the Cangzhi Plane, there were Fiend Warlocks, Bloodline Warlocks who relied on fiend bloodline. If used properly – transplanted into a human Warlock and coupled with a corresponding fiend secret method – this fiend baron heart could give birth to a Star Knight rank Fiend Warlock in merely a few centuries.
On the Turandot Subcontinent, this fiend baron heart would be regarded as an absolute treasure more valuable than a state.
Yang Feng looked somewhat regretfully at the fiend baron heart and sighed slightly inside: “Unfortunately, fiend bloodline and black dragon bloodline cannot be merged. Even if I take the fiend baron heart, it would only be able to produce a Starry Sky Warlock rank powerhouse after several centuries. That won’t be in my interest.”
Bloodlines were mutually exclusive. Black dragon bloodline could not blend with fiend bloodline. If he transplanted the fiend heart, it would lead to a clash in bloodlines, and he would explode and die.
If he wanted to transplant the fiend baron heart, he would have to abandon his current strength and expend countless amounts of precious resources, completely removing his current bloodline, and then practice cultivation anew.
If Yang Feng hadn’t planned to tread on the godly path, he might have abandoned his strength and transplanted the fiend baron heart.
However, since he planned to take the godly path, he naturally wouldn’t transplant the fiend baron heart, as fiend power and godly power were polar opposites.
Yang Feng shook his head, moved his gaze away from the fiend baron heart, and started to look for other treasures.
The treasury was divided into fiend area, devil area, elven area, beastman area, sea clansman area, giant area, dragon area, kindred area, dark elven area, rare species area, and so on. Each area had its own specialty.
The Morrince Empire had a heritage of more than 100,000 years, and had gone through countless wars, collecting countless treasures. The treasures of each area made a burning desire well up in Yang Feng’s heart, wishing he could pocket them all.
Without hesitation, Yang Feng went to the dragon area.
Only in the dragon area would have a variety of precious black dragon materials that could substantially promote his strength.
When he reached the black dragon area and took a look, his eyes flashed with regret: “Unfortunately, materials that could be used have been used!”
The body of a dragon was a treasure. Dragon blood, dragon meat, dragon liver, dragon eyes, and so on were top-notch materials for making potions. The emperors of the Morrince Empire had long since used up all the parts of dragons that could be used, leaving only some hard to process dragon bones.
“These are Moonlight Warlock rank black dragon bones. The dragon bones have no divine power ripples. It is the skeleton of an immemorial dragon.” Suddenly, his eyes lit up slightly and shone with excitement. He walked up to a 50-meter-long dragon skeleton and carefully examined it.
Dragons were divided into ordinary dragons, ancient dragons, immemorial dragons, archaic dragons, and primordial dragons. The evolution potential of ordinary dragons reached the Great Warlock rank, of ancient dragons reached Starry Sky Warlock rank, of immemorial dragons reached the Moonlight Warlock rank, of the archaic dragons reached the Infinity Warlock rank, and of primordial dragons reached the Warlock Emperor rank.
In the history of the Cangzhi Plane, the 1st Warlock Emperor, the Time Lord, slayed a time primordial dragon, absorbed countless mysteries of time, and finally ascended to an unparalleled height, suppressing countless planes and founding the 1st Warlock Dynasty.
Dragons existed on many planes, they were one of the formidable extraordinary life forms who could contend with gods without taking the godly path. Of course, the number of immemorial dragons, archaic dragons, and primordial dragons among dragons was also very limited. Yang Feng was naturally very excited to see Moonlight Warlock rank immemorial dragon bones.
On the Cangzhi Plane, Black Dragon Morph secret method contained a secret method to absorb high-ranked black dragon bone essence. As long as the formidable immemorial dragon bone essence was absorbed and refined, Yang Feng’s strength would increase by a wide margin and his bones could evolve into frightening immemorial dragon rank bones.
Without any hesitation, Yang Feng reached out toward the immemorial dragon bones.
With a shimmer of brilliant light, the immemorial dragon bones shrank into a ball of light, and then fell into Yang Feng’s hand.
