Chapter 718: Dragon's Blood

"He went inside the temple!" some of the youths exclaimed as they watched from a distance as John climbed the steps and entered the temple. They couldn't tell what exactly the steps and temples were for, but realized that it was most likely a place of great rewards. 

"I wonder if we can enter it as well?" some other youths asked, eager to follow in John's footsteps.

"Who knows, the only way we can find out is by trying ourselves!"

With the war finally over and the danger settled, the youths once again regained their explorative enthusiasm they had when they first entered the realm. On top of that, Johns displays and words had raised their fighting spirits even further, and many of the youths couldn't help it as they sped forward towards the massive steps, hoping to follow in John's path.

Hundreds of them arrived before the steps, and gazed up with wondrous awe at the ancient dragon corpse ahead. After a short pause, they hopped onto the first step.
