Chapter 215

Su Ping took out a bottle of water from his backpack. Through the reflection of the water, he could see his forehead.

It was a coiling dragon.

"A strand of the dragon's remnant soul is hidden in this mark. I can return to the Mysterious Realm at any time through this mark or teleport out directly from the Mysterious Realm …"

Su Ping touched the mark carefully. He wished that he could hide it. Otherwise, he would look like a fantasy version of Justice Bao with a dragon mark on his forehead.

He felt that the astral powers in his body were tightly connected to the mark on his forehead. All of a sudden, he had an idea. He tried to retract the astral powers on his forehead.

Something strange happened. When he did so, the mark on his forehead suddenly twisted. The dragon's body sank into his skin along with the astral powers. His forehead became flat again.

Su Ping felt that the dragon mark was still on his forehead. It was just that it was coiled under the skin.

"It really works …"

Su Ping heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, he wasn't as eye-catching as before. The only regret was that he was still too handsome. (ノ ∀ ̄,) …

"Speaking of which, the person behind the scenes of the Mysterious Realm has deliberately concealed the number of dragon scale lands and knows that this place is a legacy. Then, I'm sure that the person must have noticed me using the ninth dragon bone."

Su Ping thought about the dragon king's legacy. He frowned. After a moment of thought, he made up his mind to return to the base city as soon as possible.

He would be completely safe once he returned to the store.

With the system's protection, he wouldn't be afraid even if a legendary battle pet warrior showed up. After all, the system had boasted that not even gods or demons could hurt him within the store's range!

Compared to gods or demons, legendary battle pet warriors were nothing but puny insects.

Having made up his mind, Su Ping didn't linger. He used the mark to teleport out of the Mysterious Realm.

…

…

At the dragon tower, in front of the towering dragon bones.

More and more people were gathering. When they heard that someone had climbed to the ninth dragon bone, people from the rest areas in the distance came as well. The dragon tower was fully occupied.

Everyone raised their heads and looked up at the top of the dragon skeleton.

"Who is this challenger? How come he climbed to the ninth dragon bone?"

"Hey, are you telling the truth? Did someone really climb to the ninth dragon bone? Didn't they say that the highest one could climb was the sixth dragon bone? Are you sure? "" Are you stupid?

There are so many of us here. How could we be wrong? It's true. Didn't you see? Venerable the Blade and the others are all at the top of the dragon bone. How could they have been alerted if the challenger hadn't climbed to the ninth dragon bone? "

"… That's true. Who is this challenger? Which family is he from?"

"Who knows? But that guy is too badass. He killed everyone on the Dragon Bone Ranking in an instant!"

"You can't compare yourself to him. Ye Tianming, who ranks first on the list, has only climbed to the sixth dragon bone. That record was set a few years ago. He might be able to climb to the seventh or eighth dragon bone now, but it's impossible for him to climb to the ninth dragon bone in one go."

"Forget the eighth dragon bone, even the seventh dragon bone would be difficult. I heard that the seventh dragon bone and above can increase one's combat ability by a lot. Even Venerable the Blade and the others can't reach the eighth dragon bone!"

"Tsk, tsk. He'll come out soon. We're about to witness the birth of a legendary genius!"

The onlookers discussed animatedly, and their eyes were filled with excitement. They wanted to see with their own eyes what kind of person this challenger was.

In the air, Venerable the Blade and the others looked gloomy. No one said a word.

While they were watching, Venerable the Blade suddenly raised his eyebrows. He turned to look at the entrance of the Secret Realm. His eyes lit up.

The space was slightly twisted. A figure suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of them.

Venerable the Blade lowered his head and said respectfully, "Lord Yuan."

The others were shocked. They didn't know when the person had arrived. They hurriedly saluted and said, "Lord Yuan."

The figure that appeared out of thin air was a white-haired old man. He was wearing a simple green robe with long sleeves. He had an elegant temperament. The snow-white beard on his temples fluttered in the wind. He said, "Is the challenger inside the dragon bone?"

Venerable the Blade lowered his head and said, "Yes."

Venerable Yuan opened his eyes slightly. A cold killing intent flashed in his eyes. His voice was extremely indifferent. "When did he go in? How long has he been in the ninth dragon bone?"

"I informed you as soon as he entered the ninth dragon bone. It should be half an hour now," Venerable the Blade said with his head lowered.

Sensing the killing intent from Elder Yuan, the others shuddered in fear, afraid that they would be the target of his wrath.

"He hasn't come out yet. Have you found out which family the challenger is from?" Venerable Yuan asked.

Venerable the Blade answered, "I just went down and asked around. I heard that the challenger is a young man in his twenties from the Longjiang Base City. His surname is Su and he runs a pet store. I will ask the mayor of the Longjiang Base City to get me the information from the Civil Affairs Bureau. That way, we will be able to find out which family he is from."

Venerable Yuan squinted his eyes. He put his hands behind his back and gazed at the ninth dragon bone without saying another word.

Time passed slowly. In the blink of an eye, another two hours had passed.

The onlookers in front of the dragon bone were getting impatient. Some of them were so tired that their necks were sore.

"Is it true? Are you kidding me?"

"It's true, it's definitely true. But the challenger couldn't have died inside, right?"

"It's possible. After all, the ninth dragon bone is not an easy challenge. It is possible that the challenger was killed instantly by a beast king."

"The dragon bone challenge is not a joke. Deaths are rare but many are injured. I think the challenger tried to force his way through but was killed because he was not strong enough."

More and more people began to believe that the challenger had most likely failed. Not only had he failed the ninth dragon bone, but he had also been killed in there.

Gradually, some of the onlookers left with regrets and continued with their own business.

The onlookers stayed for another half an hour before they left one after another. After all, time was precious in the Mysterious Realm. No one had the luxury of time to watch a show.

Besides, the more powerful a fight was, the easier it would be for the winner to be revealed. Only when the two parties were very close in strength could the fight last for hours or even days and nights until they were exhausted.

"I don't think the challenger will make it."

An old man with white hair and a rosy complexion standing next to Venerable the Blade said cautiously.

The others nodded in agreement. They were thinking the same thing. All of them breathed a sigh of relief. They wouldn't be blamed too much if the challenger had failed. Otherwise, they would have to bear the consequences.

Venerable the Blade frowned. He gazed at the ninth dragon bone but said nothing. Deep down, he was hoping that the challenger could pass.

He didn't know why he had such expectations, but when he felt that this person would fail the challenge, he felt an inexplicable sense of regret.

The coldness in the old man's eyes was not as intense as before. Entering the ninth dragon bone didn't mean that the challenger could take the challenge. It seemed that there was a 90% chance that the challenger would fail.

The old man regained some of his composure. He looked away from the ninth dragon bone and said to Venerable the Blade, "Even though the challenger might have failed, you should still contact the Longjiang Base City right away. I want to know everything about the challenger before sunset. Also, inform the Seal Explorers to slow down the process of opening the seals. Leave the last three seals on the land open."

Venerable the Blade understood what the old man meant. He nodded. "Yes, sir."

The Seal Explorers were a team formed by several forces. They were responsible for opening the seals on the land. Otherwise, it would take years and months for the explorers to finish opening the seals on the land.

"Also, the Mysterious Realm will be open for three more days and close early," the old man named Yuan added.

Venerable the Saber was slightly taken aback. He glanced at Jian Wushuang and his eyes flickered. He didn't expect Jian Wushuang to be so cautious. He was determined to leave the inheritance opportunity to his granddaughter and not give anyone else a chance.

Venerable the Blade lowered his head and said yes.

The others looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They couldn't help but yearn for the status of the Legendary Realm even more.

The difference between the titled rank and the legendary rank was only one rank, but it was like a chasm that was difficult to cross.

On the other hand, the real resources on the Blue Planet were in the hands of the legendary battle pet warriors. The legendary battle pet warriors were like gods on the Blue Planet, overlooking the entire planet. Anyone who obtained a legacy like the Longtai Mountain could become a legendary battle pet warrior. However, they couldn't compete for such a chance. They didn't have the chance, nor the qualification.

That was the rule of the strong.

The strong would become stronger and the weak would become weaker.

…

…

Outside the Longtai Mountain.

In an open space more than ten miles away, the space suddenly twisted slightly, and a figure appeared out of thin air.

Su Ping landed on the ground. He looked around and realized that he was already on the barren road outside the Mysterious Realm. He could still see the mountain at the entrance of the Mysterious Realm.

Many explorers' chariots were parked on the road.

Su Ping remembered that he had come on Ye Chenshan's chariot. It seemed that he would have to rely on himself for the way back.

He thought of stealing one of the chariots and driving it away, but decided against it.

There was satellite surveillance here. If something really happened, someone would definitely investigate the satellite surveillance. At that time, they might even see him appear out of thin air from the surveillance. That would be a little strange.

Su Ping walked along the barren road and found the way back to the Longjiang Base City. He walked for another five miles before he summoned the Dark Dragon Hound.

"I'll use you for now." Su Ping hopped onto the Dark Dragon Hound's back, grabbed its fur and shouted, "Hyah!"

The Dark Dragon Hound understood what Su Ping meant. The Dark Dragon Hound was reluctant. It was a battle pet with dignity, not a mount.

Still, Su Ping patted the Dark Dragon Hound. The Dark Dragon Hound ran faster and faster.
