Path of Light.

Chapter 638 639. The entrance hidden at the edge of the abyss

Byron Thor carried a longbow on his back and walked side by side with Oppaia towards the black sand sea...

……

The bone dragon poked its head out from its nest in the rock wall. Its body had completely recovered, and the soul fire in its eye sockets was burning very vigorously. It slightly moved its wings, which were made up of countless bones.

Relying on vague memories, it spread its bony wings again and flew towards the abyss...

There seemed to be a voice calling it from somewhere, asking it to rush into the abyss to find the answer. However, every time it rushed into the abyss, it would be entangled by a group of wronged souls. Every time it tried to get rid of these wronged souls, the bone dragon's body would be tormented by the ghosts until it was almost torn apart...

Every time it escapes from the abyss, it will devour the dark creatures around it, and wait until its body is fully recovered before rushing back into the abyss...

It couldn't remember how many times it had done this, but every time it would receive a call from the depths of its soul and rush into the abyss without hesitation.

When it flies across the sky, some confused minds can become clearer.

It enjoys this short time very much...

It seemed that only at this time could the bone dragon enjoy a moment of freedom.

……

Just as the bone dragon was flying over a sandy area, Byron Thor suddenly emerged from the sand pile. He pulled the longbow towards the bone dragon in the sky, and when the armor-piercing arrow was filled with wind elements, Byron Thor shot the arrow.

The arrow flew in the air with a faint white light, shooting straight towards the bone dragon...

Although the bone dragon sensed the danger, it couldn't escape.

'whoosh'

The armor-piercing arrow pierced the bone dragon's wings.

A piece of bone was shot through by a wind elemental arrow, and it shattered into countless pieces in mid-air, but the bone dragon's flight was not affected...

A piece of bone broke from the wing, which scared the bone dragon hard.

It still remembered that the last time its wings were broken, it was trapped in the desert for two weeks.

The bone dragon noticed Byron Thor standing on the sand. Seeing the tiny figure of the elf archer, the bone dragon could not control the anger in its heart. It immediately flew down and swooped towards the elf archer.

The bone dragon's body was ablaze with blue flames, and the frequency of its wings flapping doubled...

Seeing the injured bone dragon noticing him, and the dragon's might transmitted to him, Byron Thor's legs went weak for a moment, but after all, he was a second-level warrior and had some experience in hunting high-level monsters.

Byron Thor soon recovered from his frightened mood.

He turned and ran.

The bone dragon swooped down towards him, flapping its wings fiercely, and its flying speed was dozens of times faster than Byron Thor...

The distance between the bone dragon and Byron Thor was rapidly closing.

In the blink of an eye, the bone dragon was about to catch up with him.

The blue demonic flames in the skeleton began to gather towards the chest, and finally flowed along the neck to the throat.

Because this bone dragon is made entirely of bones, any magical fluctuations in its chest and abdomen are clearly visible...

Seeing the blue flame gathering at the throat, there were only a hundred meters left between the bone dragon and Byron Tor.

Although the bone dragon was only a skeleton, it also took a deep breath...

At the same time, Byron Thor also took a deep breath...

At the moment when the bone dragon spewed out blue flames, Byron Thor leaped forward suddenly and stepped forward more than twenty meters.

A wooden door appeared out of nowhere.

Oppaia pushed open the wooden door.

Byron Thor just crossed over to the door. He reached out and grabbed the door frame, taking the opportunity to get in.

The wooden door slammed shut, and then the entire door disappeared into thin air.

The blue flame spewed out by the bone dragon burned into the air.

It let out a low roar, looked around, and couldn't find any trace of Byron Tor, so it wanted to leave.

An arrow flew towards it again and this time hit its cervical vertebra, getting stuck in the cervical joint, making it unable to get rid of the arrow no matter how it turned its head.

Byron Thor stood on the sand not far away and put the longbow back on his back.

Oppaia stood beside him and pushed open another door. The bone dragon flapped its wings and chased after it.

Byron Thor and Great Magician Oppaiia left again via teleportation.

Byron Thor shot the bone dragon three times in a row. Although it did not cause any damage to the bone dragon, it completely angered the dragon...

It let out a low roar, and the blue flames all over its body burned violently, forming a long icy road on the sand.

Byron Thor didn't dare to turn around and tease the bone dragon. He followed Oppaia through the wooden doors one after another, but it was difficult to distance himself from the bone dragon...

……

A wooden door appeared at the edge of the magic circle, and Oppaia and Byron Thor ran out of the door in a panic.

In this short journey of a few kilometers, Oppaia used up almost all the portal scrolls she had made recently.

Fortunately, they finally lured the bone dragon over, and the two of them successfully completed their mission.

Just as Byron Thor and Oppaia put on their magic cloaks, the furious bone dragon rushed into the magic circle.

Grand Mage Cedric, who had been waiting outside the magic circle for a long time, began to recite spells quickly. A huge earth element rose from the black sand behind him. The earth element was like a small hill. It roared, "Cedric, why did you call me out again? A water mage always calls an earth element to help in battle. Do you want all water magicians to know that all water elements are a bunch of trash..."

The clear and melodious Elvish language was like rolling spring thunder, exploding above the magic circle.

"Rezig, shut up!"

Five water elements instantly appeared behind the other five magicians, and they all condemned the huge earth element.

At this time, the magic pattern array prepared by Cedric had been drawn and the complicated spell had been recited.

The magic pattern formation began to rapidly absorb the magic power from its surroundings. The earth element immediately closed its mouth, and its body turned into a bridge, transporting the abundant earth elements in the elemental world to the magic pattern formation that Grand Mage Cedric had chanted a spell for a long time to complete.

As the majestic earth elemental energy was injected into the magic pattern array, Grand Mage Cedric released a field.

'Gravity field'

This is not an advanced field. Many magicians can comprehend it when they reach the second level.

But at this moment, it is the most practical field magic...

The powerful gravity instantly made the bone dragon lose its ability to fly.

No matter how it flaps its wings, it cannot fly in a gravity field.

Unable to fly... The middle part of the bone dragon's wings supported the ground, and the wings supported the body, crawling step by step outside the magic circle...

The other five magicians also began to chant spells at this time...

Magician Wesley is the leader of the magic circle. Under the leadership of Magician Wesley, icicles rise from the ground. These ice spikes continuously pierce the body of the bone dragon and quickly nail the bone dragon into the magic circle.

But the bone dragon was also desperately fighting back at this moment. Its body burst into a strong light blue ice flame. When the ice flame met the ice spikes, it quickly ignited these ice spikes. Then these ice spikes that were more than ten meters high broke one after another. The bone dragon continued to climb out while panting...

The great magicians who were hiding at the back watching the battle, now rushed to the edge of the magic circle without hesitation and tried their best to inject magic power into the magic circle.

Grand Mage Cedric controls the earth magic 'Gravity Field'

The other five magicians stood at the control center of the magic circle. One after another, ice spikes rose from the ground and pierced the bone dragon's body in all directions.

At this moment, only the bone dragon's tail was swinging desperately, and the ice spikes that rose from the ground were swept away by the dragon's tail.

The blue flames on the bone dragon began to weaken, and the soul fire in its eye sockets also quickly dimmed...

The bone dragon was pierced by countless ice spikes, and its body was almost stuck to the ground of the magic circle.

The bone dragon entered the magic circle, but there was no strong counterattack. Joyce stood at the edge of the magic circle and said indifferently:
"I thought it would be a level 7 bone dragon, but it turned out to be a level 6 dark beast. I guess this bone dragon might just be a parasite of the dragon soul. I don't know how many dragon bones there are in this pile of bones."

Then he strode to the edge of the magic circle and came to the head of the bone dragon. Then Magician Joyce raised his hands, and a giant blade made of wind elements appeared above Magician Joyce's head.

The giant blade cut along the back of the dragon's neck. The bone dragon was firmly fixed in the magic circle, unable to move. It could only watch its head being chopped off by the giant blade.

As the dragon's head was cut off, the entire body of the bone dragon instantly lost the support of magical power. These messy bones scattered and formed a huge pile of bones in the center of the magic circle.

The dragon head also rolled to the side and instantly broke into two pieces...

Joyce was stunned when he came up. He turned around and complained to the Great Mage Cedric: "Teacher Cedric, you see, even the faucet is not original..."

Grand Magister Cedric came up with his wand, he squatted down and carefully searched for something in the skull of the bone dragon.

After careful selection, he actually found a piece of red crystal covered with cracks.

When Grand Mage Cedric held the cracked red crystal in his hand, in the abyss not far away outside the battlefield, the dark air that was so thick that it was almost like black water began to boil violently.

The magicians began to find some precious bone fragments from the broken bones. Even when all the valuable bones on the bone dragon were added together, they were still not as valuable as the broken dragon soul crystal core.

Dragon Soul Crystal Core is a magical material used to make high-level staffs. This kind of high-level magical material is rare in Castletown.

……

While the magicians were hunting bone dragons, Great Swordsman Alvin was also busy.

While the magicians were hunting bone dragons, Great Swordsman Alvin brought Roy and Leah to the side of the abyss.

Their assigned task this time was to pay attention to the movements in the abyss while the magicians were hunting bone dragons.

The task is relatively simple...

But after arriving at the abyss, Great Swordsman Alvin began to look for something important at the edge of the abyss. Roy and Leah could only wait quietly by the side.

There is quicksand everywhere here. If you are not careful, you may be dragged into the abyss by the quicksand.

Roy didn't dare to walk to the edge of the abyss, let alone look down.

Leah stood quietly behind Roy, not wanting to go anywhere...

Great Swordsman Alvin searched back and forth many times, and kept taking out a map to check carefully, but unfortunately no matter how he fiddled with the map, he couldn't find what he was looking for.

Roy and Leah sat on the sand, silently watching the great swordsman Alvin running back and forth with a map in his hand.

Seeing how hard the Great Swordsman Alvin was working, Roy asked curiously:
"Great Swordsman Alvin, what are you looking for? Can Leah and I help you?"

Great Swordsman Alvin stopped and said to Roy:

"Just help me observe the surroundings and remind me of anything you see..."

After saying this, Great Swordsman Alvin ran away with the crystal sword in his hand.

Even with the map as a guide, Great Swordsman Alvin still couldn't find the entrance to the treasure...

After running for a long time, perhaps because he was tired, Great Swordsman Alvin returned to Roy and sat down with a frustrated expression on his face...

"Can you show me your map?"

Roy saw that Great Swordsman Alvin was a little depressed, so he asked him.

"Of course, this was drawn by my grandfather. When I was a child, he would always hold this map and whisper something to me. Unfortunately, I was still a little young at that time and I don't remember what my grandfather said."

"But I clearly remember that before my father died, he told me that the remains of the Frost Dragon were hidden next to the abyss deep under the sea..."

"Now I have found the abyss, but the area around it is all quicksand. After so many years, the shape of the edge of the abyss is very different from that on the map. I can no longer tell where the location on the map is!"

Roy saw the map and found that the lines were rather messy.

Those lines seem to describe the entrance to the abyss, but upon closer inspection, they don't seem to be like that because the lines are not very connected.

Great Swordsman Alvin guessed that the appearance of the abyss might have changed after such a long period of time.

But Roy doesn't think so...

Looking at the complex lines on the map, I always feel that they are not the outer contours of the abyss.

Leah sat next to Roy, looking at the rolling quicksand in front of them, and whispered to Roy: "Roy, I heard from Oppaia that these quicksands are like waterfalls over there. Roy, what do waterfalls look like?"

"Fall……"

Roy had an idea and suddenly he thought of something.

If we make a bold guess, those lines are not the outline of the abyss at all, but the direction of the quicksand at the entrance of the abyss...

Roy stood up suddenly and looked around while holding the map.

The problem was found. All the features on the map matched up. The flow of the fine sand at the entrance of the abyss was extremely chaotic. It could be drawn into a map of the flow of fine sand...

Roy glanced around, and the entrance to the abyss suddenly appeared in his eyes.

He looked back at Leia, took a deep breath, then took a step into the quicksand and his body immediately sank into it.

Leah was frightened by Roy's reckless behavior. She was worried that Roy would be dragged into the abyss, so she quickly reached out to pull him...

Soon the quicksand covered Roy's chest.

There was a solid rock under Koroy's feet...

He continued to follow the instructions on the blueprint and took another step down. He was actually standing on the protruding cliff of the abyss. Although the fine sand was constantly flowing here, the impact force caused was very weak.

Roy stood firmly on the ledge of the rock wall...
