Fantasy journey to the heavens

Chapter 172 Dragon Corpse
A deep cave, beneath which a terrifying aura of death is gushing out.

The aura of death here is permeable, covering many nearby places, so that this area is not very conspicuous.

This was also the reason why Katim had not discovered this place before.

After all, he is usually too busy. When he first acquired this place, he was busy studying the Tree of the Dead, so he had no time to explore the surroundings.

So it wasn't until Elinwei came that he knew there was such a place here.

After observing the area for a few days and exploring in various ways, he found that the situation was indeed as Elinwei said.

There is a steady stream of undead breath gushing out from here.

And the quantity is huge.

Judging from this situation, the formation of this Death Canyon is really inseparable from this place.

Perhaps it was the constant spewing of death breath here that caused Death Canyon to take shape and become what it is today.

Katim couldn't help but feel interested.

The breath of the undead cannot be generated out of thin air.

Judging from the situation below, the aura of the undead is spewing out from this place for more than a day or two.

What is there down here that causes the aura of the dead to appear continuously here?

Katim was curious.

But if you want to figure this out, you definitely can't figure it out just in Death Canyon.

You still have to go in and take a closer look to understand.

So Katim took the plunge.

He took protective measures alone and walked down with the two undead puppets.

In this operation, he did not take Aileen Wei and others with him.

On the one hand, we are not sure if there is any danger down there, and on the other hand, we need someone to guard the house.

Once there is any danger below, Katim himself can use the power of the boundary stone to escape, but Elinwei and others cannot.

After all this calculation, two undead puppets are more convenient. Not only are they powerful enough, but they are also dead objects and can be received into the ring at any time.

In addition, counting the previous gains, Katim now has four puppets.

Originally there were three in the Kingdom of Crow, namely two official wizards and a great knight.

But when he was looking for Lilian, Katim also killed a great knight, and during this time he was also used as a puppet.

This time, his craftsmanship has improved greatly, and he has successfully produced the first undead puppet of the Grand Knight level.

Although it is an undead puppet, after being forced by Katim, its strength is no different from that in life. It has even been transformed and become even stronger in some places.

After all, in some aspects, it is impossible for living people to compare with dead people.

After making all preparations, Katim began to move forward.

He tried walking down the cave.

As soon as he entered, he made a discovery.

There are many human footprints everywhere. From the looks of it, many people have visited this place.

However, these traces show different ages. Some may have been thought of a long time ago, while others may have been left recently.

Judging from various traces, the necromancer who previously occupied Death Canyon should also know this place, so he has also been here.

Katim checked the signs everywhere and made sure that there was no danger in this place before moving on.

As he walked along the road, he found many corpses.

Some corpses still have a faint inexplicable aura on their surfaces, indicating their status as strong men during their lifetimes.

Katim stepped forward carefully to check it, and finally shook his head in disappointment.

Because it has been so long, the power of these corpses has been exhausted, and now they are just ordinary bones and dregs, and they are nothing.

Even if you take it back, it will be of little use, not even experimental materials.

Think about it.

There had been so many people coming in before. If these bones were really useful, it probably wouldn't be Katim's turn to come and pick up the corpses.

There are plenty of people out there who are willing to do this work.

Continuing to walk forward, he encountered some traps.

The level of the trap is not high, let alone Katim, even his puppets can break through.

Just go all the way to the end.

Katim finally came to a large door.

The door is made of an inexplicable metal with various unique textures carved on it. It looks lifelike, like a mysterious and powerful life.

Katim stood there and observed carefully for a moment, and finally determined what was carved on this thing.

It was a dancing dragon.

The giant dragon dances in mid-air, chasing the sun and moon.

The entire dragon's body looks extremely large, and every scale and claw on it is very clear, like a living dragon.

Katim could even feel a touch of majesty on this giant dragon carving, spreading from it, making Katim's body start to tremble slightly.

He couldn't help frowning.

"Is there no way forward?"

The huge iron gate in front blocked the road.

The iron door looked ordinary, but there was no sign of damage on it.

Katim estimated that the protection of this iron gate should be very strong.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have blocked so many people before.

I tried it carefully and found that it is indeed the case.

No matter whether it was slashed with spells or swords, the iron door showed no reaction at all, not even a scratch.

This terrifying defensive power left Katim speechless.

You know, he is a near-crystallized wizard and peak knight.

With such strength, with all his strength, even a second-level wizard could be seriously injured.But such force, hitting the iron door in front of him, didn't leave even a trace.

This defensive power is evident and terrifying.

"If we can move this iron gate away, we should be able to refine several high-quality magic weapons."

Katim looked at the iron gate, and this thought flashed through his mind unconsciously.

To have such a reaction, the iron door itself should be made of a unique extraordinary material, and its value itself is extraordinary.

If it could be moved, I believe it would be very valuable.

Unfortunately, this is completely impossible to do.

Upon closer inspection, he discovered some mechanism behind the door.

This door contains many magic circles, which should have the function of checking identity.

Perhaps, only those with a specific identity or key can enter this iron door.

But what exactly is that key?

Katim didn't know.

When things have reached this point, if it were an ordinary person, it would probably be in vain, just like so many people before.

But Katim had something else to try.

He communicates with the boundary-piercing stone in his body.

In his spiritual sea, the boundary-piercing stone emitted a lavender light, with faint ripples coming out of it.

He looked down again and saw that after the previous consumption, he still had around [-] realm energy left in him, which should be enough in quantity.

That being the case, give it a try.

Katim stepped forward, stretched out one hand and pressed it on the iron door.

Then in his spiritual sea, the purple boundary stone began to flicker, and the power within it emerged and was about to explode.

Katim isn't sure about what's going to happen next.

It may work, it may not.

But no matter what, let’s try it first.

With this idea in mind, he began to try.

After a moment, his figure disappeared.

In just an instant, Katim arrived at another place.

A cold feeling came over instantly, covering his whole body.

In an instant, a piercing feeling surged over him, bringing with it a terrifying pain.

At this moment, Katim almost had the conflict of wanting to leave at all costs.

Before entering, he had anticipated this situation and was ready to leave immediately if there was any danger.

But at the critical moment, he still held back.

Because he found that this was not a trap, but a natural reaction of some kind of breath flowing out.

Standing there, he raised his head and looked forward.

A huge thing appeared in front of him.

It was an extremely large corpse.

In the vast void space, a huge dragon corpse stood, quietly suspended in the air.

The huge dragon corpse spread its wings and its body stood quietly. It was estimated to be at least several hundred meters in size.

Several huge wounds appeared on his body, and the terrifying aura of the undead spread out from there.

This seems to be the source of the huge undead aura from the outside world.

"It turns out to be this kind of existence."

Katim took a deep breath.

Apart from the iron gate outside, there are actually no additional arrangements here.

But just the breath flowing from the dragon corpse in front was enough to make him feel terrified.

The rich aura of the undead flowed out, and when it touched his body, it made all the flesh and blood on his body react, as if it had been torn apart.

This is the result of the contact between high-purity necromantic breath and flesh and blood.

No matter how you say it, Katim is still alive.

The erosion of the undead breath still exists on him.

After drinking several bottles of potion, his body barely adapted.

Only then did he have time to observe the dragon corpse in front of him.

He felt a familiar aura on that dragon corpse.

He had also felt this kind of aura from the Blood Demon when he was in the Blood Demon World.

"Fourth order."

Katim muttered to himself as he stood there.

The fourth level, this level is called qualitative change, and it is also a stage comparable to the gods.

In the past, Katim saw the dark gods in the world of fighters, and the blood demons he saw in the world of blood demons seemed to belong to this level.

And now, in the Dawn World, Katim saw the existence of this level for the first time.

But in this weird way.

"This dragon corpse, according to the standards of a pure-blood dragon, is even still in its infancy?"

Looking at the dragon corpse standing in front of him, Katim felt an inexplicable sense of absurdity in his heart.

Regarding dragons, many ancient wizards in the Dawn World left many relevant records.

According to these records, once an adult dragon reaches adulthood, its body will be approximately one thousand meters long, and its strength will be comparable to that of a top wizard.
