Chapter 352 Skeleton Nether King Dragon
Chapter 352 Skeleton Nether King Dragon
According to Qiu Wanshan's description, wasn't Ten Thousand Dragons Pool just a giant pool of corpse water!
However, Chen Xing felt it was not merely corpse water because the surrounding wasn't water but a kind of special energy.
"Where is the Dragon King's Tomb?"
"Milord, this place is all corpse water, so the Dragon King's Tomb naturally is also close by." Qiu Wanshan said, lowering his head to look at his feet.
Chen Xing's gaze followed Qiu Wanshan's and looked towards the black "sand sea" beneath them.
Qiu Wanshan's Mountain-Back Rock Dragon charged towards the depths of the earth.
The massive body was unexpectedly agile, plunging into the sand sea and stirring up large swathes of black sand before gradually submerging in it.
This ability was probably linked to its innate skill.
[Innate Skill] Earth Affinity (Passive) (Enhanced affinity with the earth, permitting effortless movement within the earth)
"Follow it," Chen Xing instructed.
Dong Jun hurriedly kept up with the Mountain-Back Rock Dragon's pace, following its massive body deeper into the depth.
After burrowing for close to ten minutes, which would have covered miles if it had been on the surface, the view suddenly opened up.
A thick scent of death permeated the void around them.
Mountains of corpses and seas of bones, all within sight, presented a desolate scene.
However, although surely they were descending, when they emerged, it seemed as though they were facing upward.
Could this place be spherical like Earth?
As Dong Jun emerged from the ground and observed their surroundings, he inexplicably felt a chill tingling at the back of his mind.
This was a natural reaction after seeing a vast amount of his kin's corpses.
It's similar if a person stumbled into an ancient battlefield and saw countless human corpses.
"Has there really been this many bodies of the Dragon Clan over these millennia?" Chen Xing was somewhat shocked.
Everywhere bones lay, with the majority of the giant dragon corpses having decayed, leaving only stark white bones.
A few corpses were still partially intact but were also beginning to decompose.
Shortly after entering this place, Mountain-Back Rock Dragon ran in a different direction; Qiu Wanshan probably also had his purposes for coming here with great effort.
However, Chen Xing withdrew his gaze, and since they were already here, they'd better make haste.
Qiu Wanshan glanced at Chen Xing's figure behind him and softly instructed the Mountain-Back Rock Dragon to keep quieter.
He concealed something: although the Dragon King's Tomb was a good place, it wasn't as safe as imagined here, which was also the playground of the undead giant dragons from Dragon Emperor Giant City.
Being naturally averse to the Light Attribute, Chen Xing's Beast Taming would be more noticeable in this place compared to his own Beast Taming, and as long as he kept quiet, Chen Xing's Beast Taming could help him share much of the risk.
Chen Xing first left a mark where he was, then guided Dong Jun to move further inside.
Bones were everywhere, with large piles forming mountains of bones.
Dong Jun maneuvered through the Bone Mountain Range.
"Master, where should we go?"
Chen Xing pondered; this was his first time here, unfamiliar with the surroundings.
He had assumed that since it was called the Dragon King's Tomb, it naturally encompassed only the tombs of Dragon Kings, but it seemed that was not the case.
But the tomb of a Dragon King certainly had to be different from ordinary tombs.
He had Dong Jun ascend to take a better look at their surroundings.
Ten minutes later, Dong Jun silently stared at a skeletal giant dragon lying before them that was nearly a kilometer long.
The Skeleton Nether King Dragon's open wings carried hundreds of skeletal dragon heads, with strands of blue ghostly fire burning on them.
"Interesting, you Light Dragons running into our Undead Clan's territory, you evil Light Dragon boy, are you here to experience the undead or attempt to purify the undead with your feeble light?"
Dong Jun's face turned deathly pale.
Inside Dong Jun's mind, Chen Xing also fell silent.
No sooner had Dong Jun soared into the sky than he found himself crashing right into the embrace of this 314 Energy Level Skeleton Nether King Dragon.
Of course, it was more like the latter was waiting for prey right above them, probably having their eyes on them since they entered the Dragon King's Tomb.
"Don't be nervous, I won't eat you. Let the human in your soul come out and speak to me, what you are doing by running in here," said the Skeleton Nether King Dragon, his voice somber yet peculiar.
The Dragon King's Tomb was rich in deathly energy, making it a precious place for Undead Giant Dragons; however, for dragons of the Light Attribute, it was the worst possible dead end.
Even the treasures born here would either have the Dark Attribute or the Undead Attribute.
For those of Light Attribute, they were of no benefit.
So it was curious what the purpose of this core seed of the Light Dragon lineage was.
Yes, it immediately recognized the inheritance of the Light Dragon lineage on Dong Jun that had not yet been fully absorbed, something most ordinary beings would not notice, but in front of the great Nether Bone Dragon King, it was as conspicuous as a torch in the night.
Such a core seed of the Light Dragon lineage couldn't be lacking in resources either.
Chen Xing held a Spatial Crystal in one hand, thought for a moment, but in the end, he chose not to use it.
Given the opponent's strength, if it had intended to attack, it would have done so already; its tone suggested no significant malice.
And if he were to flee now, it would be like trying to steal a bell while plugging one's own ears...
Could he escape the Dragon King's Tomb, let alone the Dragon Emperor Giant City?
Meanwhile, Chen Xing thought of Qiu Wanshan; no wonder he had hurried off as soon as he arrived, probably knowing something but having not informed him.
So was he being used as bait?
No, in the presence of such a high-level entity, how could Qiu Wanshan secretly leave? Then he must be in cahoots with the Undead Giant Dragon before them.
