Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 274 The Dragon Tower Appears

Something unusual must be going on!

This place, where so many dragon corpses are gathered, must be some kind of special location.

Fortunately, the range of the spiritual energy meter was relatively far, allowing Bai Yang to detect the problem in advance.

The star-shaped robot stopped abruptly and began digging into the ground.

After traversing tens of kilometers of soil, it finally reached the planet's surface.

There are no signs of powerful creatures in the vicinity.

Star Guardian pushed the probe to its limit and confirmed that there should be no dragons within a 200-kilometer radius.

The spacetime clone was the first to emerge from the world ring and look around.

Bai Yang's main body simultaneously shared the senses of his clone.

Then, he was so shocked by what he saw that he was speechless.

About a thousand kilometers away from him, in the direction Bai Yang originally wanted to go.

A magnificent golden pagoda appeared before him.

The vision of a cosmic-level powerhouse is astonishing, but at this distance, he is able to see this tower so clearly.

That's because the tower is over 5,000 kilometers wide!

Its height is immeasurable!

Even for a celestial body as massive as Ronta, it is very likely that it has already exceeded the atmosphere.

Smoke swirled around the entire tower, eerily slipping out of his perception from time to time, as if it didn't exist in this space and time at all.

The average person can be awestruck by its sheer size, only to suddenly lose sight of the building in the next second.

"Those are all dragons, right? Star Guardian, use optics to measure their speed and deduce their strength."

Bai Yang pointed to the black dots around the pagoda, which were like mosquitoes flying around everywhere.

"That's right, those black dots are all living things. Judging from their characteristics, they're probably all dragons at the World Lord level!"

"Then, this thing must be the so-called [Dragon Tower]."

The entire sacred ground of Dragon Tower Star was right before his eyes!

Bai Yang felt a chill run down his spine after just one glance at the situation.

The originally enormous World Lord-level dragons appeared as small as sesame seeds against the backdrop of the Dragon Tower.

But from a distance, it still looks like a dark, dense mass!

It's impossible to count how many dragon beasts there are in that area.

"No wonder Luo Feng gave up exploring it after just one glance."

With such numbers and strength, even immortals wouldn't dare to force their way in.

With the Dragon Tower so close at hand, Bai Yang, who had already reaped substantial benefits, was truly unwilling to give up.

This place was a treasure trove for him, but also the most dangerous place.

If other geniuses came here, they would be amazed by this enormous dragon tower.

With all their trump cards, they can usually find a safe entrance to enter.

But for him, as long as he moves a little further in that direction, it's all that matters.

It might attract a large number of Lord-level dragons to attack him.

"Star Guardian, pay attention to drawing the surrounding map."

Let's walk around the Dragon Tower once first.

"Understood."

Two star-level robots instantly appeared beside the spacetime clone.

As soon as they appeared, they moved in a semi-circular path, heading in two directions, making a large circle around the area surrounding the Dragon Tower.

The Dragon Tower is now visible, and all the dragons have been drawn away by it.

The two robots encountered no attacks along the way and returned safely to the starting point two hours later.

Bai Yang waited patiently for a while, and Xing Shou quickly stitched together the images taken by the two robots.

A rough map and a long-range photo of the base of the Dragon Tower were created.

"There are many entrances."

Bai Yang immediately noticed this from the photo.

"There are a total of 360 main doors at the base of the tower."

Arrange them at equal intervals.

All the dragons flew around the tower, none daring to enter through the entrance.

Star Guardian said, "And it's strange."

According to analysis, these gates are actually only a little over ten meters high, and they don't seem to be prepared for the dragon race at all.

It's as if it were prepared for another race.

"Are there any particularly weak points? What is the distribution of dragon species?"

"No. Each door is guarded by tens of thousands of dragons."

Judging from their appearance, the attributes and types of these dragons are quite random.

All the species we've seen before are distributed here.

There's no way to make any specific arrangements based on their attributes.

Bai Yang rubbed his temples; he had a headache.

The other party did not leave any gaps at all; there would be no such obvious loopholes.

How many mechanical puppets do we have left?

"Fifteen units."

"Send one out and try to pass the test."

"clear."

The spacetime clone remained stationary, next to a mechanical puppet.

The silvery-white bones all over his body began to change color, turning into a pitch-black mass.

Standing in this desolate wasteland, I suddenly became even more inconspicuous.

A strange red light flashed in the robot's eyes, and then it took a step and walked towards the Dragon Tower.

Even star-level machine golems can travel at speeds of several hundred meters per second here.

It soon approached one of the gates of the Dragon Tower.

Bai Yang's true form is inside the World Ring, and its every move is monitored through a display.

The closer you get to the Dragon Tower, the higher your chances of encountering dragons.

Most of these dragons hovered in the air, flying up and down the tower.

There weren't many dragons at the entrance at the bottom of the ground.

Bai Yang even vaguely sensed that they seemed to be intentionally avoiding the area around the doorway.

When the mechanical golems approached within ten kilometers of the gate, the ground was littered with scattered dragon bones.

Bai Yang was filled with envy, but unfortunately the mechanical puppets were too small to move these behemoths.

Clap!

The moment the mechanical puppet entered the ten-kilometer radius, its entire body shattered into a pile of parts.

"What happened?"

"An air attack! It was that green dragon."

In the images transmitted by the robot "before it died," Star Guardian drew a giant dragon.

It was a green Western dragon over 500 meters tall, its eyes fixed on the location of the machine parts, clearly having been watching it for a long time.

Around it, there were dozens of dragons of various kinds, all watching the surroundings with fierce eyes and very serious expressions.

"With just a breath, he destroyed a star-level robot."

"Among the dragons here in the Dragon Tower, there are probably none below the level of a World Lord."

To a robot that poses no threat whatsoever, and is even devoid of life.

These dragons are all so vigilant; if Bai Yang's true form were to go there, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The only good news is that the Dragon Tower is too attractive to the dragon race.

It seems that unless something special happens, they won't leave there at all.

They would rather die at the foot of the Dragon Tower than fly here to hunt down Bai Yang.

The spacetime clone retreated underground and traveled another hundred kilometers before stopping again.

"If we can sever their special connection to me, it's not impossible to give it a try."

"System, it's up to you this time."
