[601-800] THE EVOLUTION OF A GOBLIN TO THE PEAK

Chapter 772: Invasion

Bland City.

Footsteps echoed in a deep, dark underground place. They were the members of the Dragon Council, also known as Nine Heads.

“We’ve been walking forever… Just how deep is this place.” Ninth Head said while looking around.

“Judging from the time and distance, we are one thousand meters below the surface.” Third Head answered calmly.

Governor Ray, First Head, glanced at them from the corner of his eyes. He then asked, “How much of you know the history of Hall Plains?”

“The history of Hall Plains is pretty much nonexistent. From the records, there is a powerful country that existed here in the past.” Fifth Head said while stroking his chin.

“That country is called the Hall of Power. Aside from that, I don’t know anything else.” Fourth Head said as he tried to remember the records he had seen before.

“So someone erased the history? Is it the Imperial Family in the central region?” Eight Head asked.

Governor Ray continued walking down the stairs while listening to their words. After a while, he opened his mouth and said, “Yes, there is a large country in Hall Plains a long time ago. It was the central power of Hall Plains, it’s called the Hall of Power. The Hall of Power disappeared after a brutal war that occurred a long time ago. Right now, most of the top factions in the Hall Plains were once part of the previous Hall of Power.”

Countless powerful experts died in that war and it reduced this land to its current state. A barren land without any sort of actual power. The experts of this land grew weaker as various spells, combat arts, and techniques were lost in the war. No faction in the entire Hall Plains could even produce an expert that broke a great shackle, Four Shackles Realm.

The emperor of the Imperial Family in the central region was only at the peak of the Three Shackles Realm. Even the increase in mana density couldn’t help the emperor’s breakthrough. It only made him stronger than the normal Three Shackles Realm.

Ray glanced at them from the corner of his eyes and said, “Some of you arrive at the Second Shackles after the increase in mana density while the others have reached Second Shackles a long time ago.”

“Yep, it’s not enough. I’m still thirty four years old this year and I think I could achieve more.” Ninth Head nodded her head. “So I’m planning to go to any large country or Holy Lands to find some treasure or techniques that could help me reach the Fourth Shackle. The treasure that we could find here is only for Liquefying and Solidifying Realm. There are few for Shackled Realm but it’s not enough.”

“We’re here.” Ray suddenly said.

The rest of the heads looked up and saw a gigantic exquisite jade door filled with all sorts of seals and runes. It has a height of fifty meters and a width of ten meters. At the bottom part of the jade door, there was a small door in it that fitted their size.

Even though the jade door was sealed, they could still feel the intense oppression in the air. It was heavy and suffocating. The unknown being that lies behind this door possessed strength that could look down at them as if they were ants.

“This is the secret that the Governor of Mine Valley passed down from generation to generation. It’s a secret buried deep in the mind of the previous Governors.” Governor Ray said as he looked calmly at the giant jade door.

“This is…”

Ninth Head and the rest opened their eyes widely. They felt insignificant in front of this jade door. They didn’t expect that something like this was hiding in the Mine Valley.
