Capítulo 30: Frog in the Bottom of a Well
Editor: Henyee Translations
The forest was in a state of complete silence before all the barbarians suddenly gasped out loud. The appearance of the book described by Chu Nan was exactly the same as the battle skill inheritance that even the temple had lost. Right now, the golden <Barbarian's Heart> and the silver <Barbarian's Heart> were considered as the highest grade available.
The purple gold <Barbarian's Heart> skill only existed in the ancient legends, and none had seen it in hundreds of thousands of years.
The hairs on Chu Nan's skin stood up on its end due to the barbarians' intense gazes. Not only had he seen the skill book before, that purple gold skill book was currently sleeping in his spatial bracelet!
Due to the fact that the skill book's appearance was exceptionally eye-catching and that he chanced upon it while looking for other skills, he didn't even know what grade the skill book was.
It seems like the importance of <Barbarian's Heart> is higher than <Battle Roar>. Chu Nan secretly observed the barbarians' reaction, and soon he understood the importance of the item in his possession.
Shanz could not help but ask. "Where is the <Barbarian's Heart> skill book at?"
"Where is it at?" Chu Nan dismissively shrugged his shoulders. "It's located at a certain historical site. Not only is there <Barbarian's Heart>, the <Druid's Heart> inheritance is also there."
"What…"
"What?"
Aleta who was calmly seated at one side immediately bounced up in complete utter shock. The importance of <Druid's Heart> to the druids was equal to that of the importance of <Barbarian's Heart> to the barbarians. Moreover, the highest grade purple gold <Druid's Heart> skill book had been lost for ages. It had been so long since its disappearance that some of the powerful skills that require <Druid's Heart> to activate had degraded into mere decorations.
"Is it… is it also… purple gold grade?" Aleta struggled for a long time before he woke up from the shock.
"It is also purple gold grade."
"Bring me there!" Aleta and Shanz excitedly shouted simultaneously.
"Bring you there?" Chu Nan revealed traces of contempt and shook his head. "The ones who are standing guard there are four level 6 Heaven Realm spatial magicians, two level 6 Heaven Realm sealing-type magicians and…:
The barbarians and druids didn't continue to focus on what Chu Nan said. Four Heaven Realm spatial magicians! What kind of existence are they?
"How could it be possible?" Shanz raised his doubts. "How could there be so many Heaven Realm experts gathered there when there are only several Heaven Realm experts in the entire Shengyuan Continent?"
"You are all frogs in the bottom of a well." Chu Nan revealed a scornful smile. "That two level 6 Heaven Realm sealing-type magicians launched a sneak attack on me, causing the majority of my strength to be sealed. Then, those four spatial magicians collaborated with each other to throw me into this Heaven Forest."
The originally boisterous atmosphere of the party immediately simmered to a standstill. With the exception of the calming sounds of crackling fire, the whole place was in a state of complete silence.
Everyone looked at Chu Nan in surprise. He had been encircled and ambushed by so many experts, yet he was still alive? What kind of monster was he?
Even though the druids worshipped Chu Nan, they did not expect Chu Nan to be powerful to that extent.
Chu Nan looked at their dazed expression and felt a pang of smugness in his heart. Even though he could pretend to be an expert for a day or two, if he wanted to deceive the two experts to be his bodyguard when he entered human society, it was most likely impossible in the long run.
Seeing that they had been baited, Chu Nan threw out this carefully fabricated story about how he got sealed.
"Perhaps all of you think I'm still a Heaven Realm expert, right?" Chu Nan revealed a bitter smile and shook his head in self-ridicule. "Ever since I was aware there were treasured skill inheritance of various races sealed in that strange place, I had thought of all kinds of methods to obtain those skill books in order to hand it back to their respective races. Unfortunately, there were too many Heaven Realm experts guarding the place. Even though I'm a level 9 Heaven Realm expert I was still severely wounded by them in the scuffle. And in the end, they had even sealed the majority of my powers."
"How did you manage to escape from that terrifying place?" Aleta did not seem to doubt Chu Nan's words in the slightest. Him questioning Chu Nan was merely because of how anxious he was to know the answer.
The audience seemed to have the same train of thought as Aleta. All of them were fully focused on Chu Nan as they wanted to hear the continuation of the story.
No wonder an ugly construction worker dared to brag that he graduated from an acting faculty. So it turns out, it was easy to suspect the authenticity of the story if it was only slightly exaggerated. However, if the story was exaggerated sufficiently to the extent where it seemed fake, more often than not, people would believe it to be real.
Chu Nan felt pleased deep down, but his expression was of extreme seriousness. "After the last exchange of magic attacks, four of the opponents' spatial magicians activated a forbidden spell <Eternal Space>, with intentions to seal me inside for eternity. At that time, my surrounding space suddenly cracked and a torrential rush of magic power surged all around. No living being was capable of surviving under the forbidden spell and at that crucial moment…"
Chu Nan mastered the skill of storytelling so he deliberately paused for a moment to build up tension.
Those druids and barbarians, who had never encountered Heaven Realm experts, could not differentiate the authenticity of Chu Nan's words. Their inexperienced mind firmly believed in what Chu Nan said to be real and at that moment, they asked nervously, "What happened then?"
"Hmph." Chu Nan proudly smiled. "Even though they are powerful, I am also a level 9 Heaven Realm expert. In the crucial moment, as someone who specializes in three different magic, I used a thunder elemental forbidden spell, <Thunderbolt Judgement>, in order to break the <Eternal Space>. However, the space was then immediately flooded with powerful magic elements, so even though I had not been sealed in the <Eternal Space>, the majority of my power had been sealed instead. In addition, I was thrown into the Heaven Forest due to the spatial turbulence which caused spatial cracks in the surroundings.
What was <Thunderbolt Judgement>? Also, what was <Eternal Space? Chu Nan did not know what those skills were. He had only read those terms in the skill books inside of his spatial bracelet and so, he casually mentioned them as a smokescreen.
Naturally, the druids and barbarians had never heard of those skills before. As soon as they heard those 'cool' skill names, they had already assumed it was an extremely powerful skill.
